Many singles are often overlooked or marginalized in our Christian culture and churches, but this isn't how God sees them. He places a very high value on His singles, and we should too. Taking truths from 1 Corinthians 7, Dr. Evans shares three vital principles for singles: How to wait on the Lord and his timing and direction, how to work for God and experience the satisfaction of fulfilling your personal calling in life, and what it means to be wedded in the Lord, whether that is through an eventual marriage or through your personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Dr. Evans writes to a variety of types of singles, the: Decidedly singleNever marriedDivorcedSeparatedWidowedSingle parentIn this hope-filled and popular title, Dr. Tony Evans encourages us to embrace the often unheard biblically-based truth about singlehood: Being single is more desirable for a Christian than being married!

I Don't Know What It Is But I Love It by Tony Evans - Liverpool and the most unlikely success story in footballKenny Dalglish. Graeme Souness. Ian Rush. Alan Hansen. Bruce Grobelaar. They rank with the very greatest players ever. But the heroes of 1984 were an unlikely group to make history.Led by a 63-year old first-time manager and a captain show-off better known for his moves on the dancefloor, Liverpool's greatest season was a booze-fuelled journey to three trophies: the first division title, the League Cup and the European Cup, won on a remarkable night in Rome. The team's theme song was even the much-derided Chris Rea hit. Eye-watering, hilarious, and utterly unbelievable, this is the story of how they did it, and how their season was the last year of innocence in English football.This book is essential reading for fans of Red or Dead, 43 Years With The Same Bird: A Liverpudlian Love Affair and the memoirs of Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher and Kenny Dalglish.Tony Evans has been football editor of The Times for five years and was born a Liverpool fan. He writes a weekly column for The Game, The Times' weekly football supplement. He came to journalism at the age of 29 and spent his 20s following Liverpool and playing in bands, including a stint in The Farm. In 1983-84, he saw all 42 league games and most of the matches in other competitions.

In the past, violations of human rights were commonly portrayed as atrocities perpetrated by tyrannical dictatorships. Today, the images of torture at Abu Ghraib in Iraq, and the treatment of detainees at Guantanamo Bay, put the lie to this assumption. State violations of human rights have a global reach.*BR**BR*Tony Evan's introduction to the politics of human rights examines the impact of globalisation on global human rights. He argues that the state's role in protecting and promoting rights has been severely weakened under globalisation - and that the emerging global order may be a cause of many human rights violations. As the value of the market grows, the value of individual human rights decreases.*BR**BR*The Politics of Human Rights departs from traditional interpretations of human rights by focusing on the political economy of human rights, rather than on the philosophical or legal aspects.

"Whether we know it or not, we are at war"But this battle is a spiritual one. Tony Evans explains, "Spiritual warfare is that conflict being waged in the invisible, spiritual realm that is being manifest in the visible, physical realm."Perhaps you or someone you know has become an emotional, a marital, or a moral casualty of spiritual warfare. If so, let Tony Evans offer hope with his use of the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God. In this booklet, he points out: -People are not the real enemy.-Satan is a limited being.-Satan's power will never be a match for God's.-Our victory is found in dependence on God.-Satan is a defeated foe-the Cross was his death blow.-Our authority is in Christ.-Christ has provided all that we need.-The Word of God shows us our victory."In a war, an army doesn't fire just one shell or launch one missile at the enemy. An army pounds the enemy with repeated fire." The battle is still raging, but our Captain is the Victor!TONY EVANS is senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas, and president of The Urban Alternative, a ministry devoted to promoting a clear understanding and relevant application of Scripture in order to bring about change in urban communities through the church.

"Prayer is the fuel that provides the spiritual spark for our lives."We aren't the first people to struggle with prayer. When Christ's disciples asked, "Teach us to pray," He responded by teaching them a few sentences that have come to be known as the Lord's Prayer. Now Tony Evans shows how this prayer can by a model for all of us."God is brighter than the sun. We can't even approach the sun without getting cooked, yet the God who created the sun is infinitely brighter than the sun." And this God invites us to worship Him and pray to Him through Christ. The Lord's Prayer is an example to show us how to pray for -God's will-our needs and requests-pardon-protection from sin-God's gloryHe is everything we will ever need, and He wants us to come to Him.TONY EVANS is senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas, and president of The Urban Alternative, a ministry devoted to promoting a clear understanding and relevant application of Scripture in order to bring about change in urban communities through the church.

"Are you willing to give up your steak and potatoes to gain spiritual riches?Sometimes it's hard to make the concentrated effort of prayer. When the need is urgent, God has prescribed an urgent method. Tony Evans asks, "How badly do you want an answer? How much do you want deliverance from that destructive habit? How badly do you want to save your marriage? Do you want it enough to give up food, or some other gratification? Then come before God with prayer and praise in fasting." Fasting is a way you can make a special link with Him when you need a spiritual breakthrough. Fasting can help the believer-get in touch with God without distractions-pursue God's grace-step onto the path of humility-achieve spiritual victory-wait before the LordFasting is an appropriate response to physical or emotional needs, difficult circumstances or relationships, challenges in ministry, or times we need specific direction. "Fasting is not just an aside to the Christian life, but essential to the life that pleases God."TONY EVANS is senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas, and president of The Urban Alternative, a ministry devoted to promoting a clear understanding and relevant application of Scripture in order to bring about change in urban communities through the church.
