Jim Valekis' The Christian in the Cult: And How I Discovered Humanity in Christ uses the author's life story to take us deep inside the culture of the Greek Orthodox Church, Herbert Armstrong's Worldwide Church of God, and modern Evangelicalism. After journeying through three versions of "the only true church," Valekis deftly invites his readers to join him in his ongoing discovery of humanity in Christ and what it can mean for the church and the world.Endorsement:Millions of religious believers will clearly recognize the spiritual journey narrated by Jim Valekis in this powerful story. A son of the Greek Orthodox Church finds himself in Herbert W. Armstrong's Worldwide Church of God, which eventually takes him into more traditional Christianity and out again. Where he ends up at the end of this fascinating pilgrimage will be a big surprise. But Valekis astutely narrates his journey and brings readers along with him to a spiritual destination that includes the whole world. In a religious and political landscape that has become a culture war of all against all, Valekis's final message of oneness and wholeness in Christ is a welcome antidote.¿Andrew Manis, Emeritus Professor of History Middle Georgia State University, Macon, GeorgiaIn your hands is a book that speaks powerfully to both the complexities of living and growing in the Church, and to the way God moves in our individual lives as believers. Through the story of author Jim Valekis, we see a riveting faith testimony passed from one generation of family to another -- across cultures, continents, and denominations. We experience through Jim's journey how our Christian faith can ground us and cover us spiritually, despite a fallen world, broken relationships, and vocational volatility. Jim reminds us that while our conditions and surroundings rise and fall, our steadfast relationship with Christ is All. I commend this book to you. ¿Chuck Proudfit, President At Work On PurposeAbout the Author:Jim Valekis was born in Alabama with a "bouzouki" on his knee. His Greco-American parents raised their family as part of a thriving Greek Orthodox community in Birmingham. As a teenager captivated by the radio teachings of Herbert W. Armstrong, Valekis defied his roots and eventually followed a call to pastor in the Worldwide Church of God. When the former cult transitioned into Evangelicalism, Jim followed, continuing to pastor in Grace Communion International. Most recently Valekis co-founded the vision for the Tipp Center, a faith-based business and resource hub, where he is the chaplain. Jim holds a master's degree in Biblical Studies from Earlham School of Religion. He enjoys hanging out with his wife Becky, biking, painting, and sharing (especially over Greek comfort food) how his new theological understanding connects back in profound ways with the ancient Trinitarian fabric of his Orthodox upbringing, a relational Christ-centered fabric expansive enough to include every human being.

From the moment you're born, circumstances shape you, and the world constantly tries to tell you who you are, who you should be, and how you should see yourself. Meanwhile, the last thing the enemy wants you to grasp is one simple truth: you are a daughter of God. Owning that truth radically changes everything because it means you are not a lost cause; you are not damaged goods. The truth is, as His daughter, God's plans for you are good.I wrote I'm God's Daughter to awaken you to this truth of who God says you are so you can experience the abundant life He has for you.

The devotional intertwined her testimony while encouraging us all to remember that God is all we need and more. I'm God's Daughter is beautifully written with God's daughters in mind. Because of this, I believe readers will sense God's presence on every page. Reading the devotional reminded me that God sees, knows, and cares about us even during trying circumstances, which made me smile and helped me understand God's love for me even more. Every woman needs to read Kanisha's devotional for such a time as this. It's a beautiful masterpiece. It will lead you on a path of self-discovery, deepen your connection with God, and encourage you to give God all your worries, anxieties, and cares. Include this indispensable devotional to accompany you on a sixty-day journey brimming with revelation, testimonies, and the word of God!Candace Writes, minister, psychotherapist, and author of Breathe: Rest, Reflect, Reset, and Woman of God: 60-Day Devotional About the Author: Kanisha Nashay Parker is a minister, writer, wife and mother.

As David Motte states in The Gift of Blarney, "God wants to be involved in our lives. We have the freedom to choose His involvement or ignore His presence every day." That was never truer than on April 20, 2018, at the 600-year-old Blarney Castle in County Cork Ireland. That day, David received a gift more precious than wishes from kissing the Blarney Stone. In fact, he never reached the stone! While climbing the castle steps, he suffered a cardiac arrest, collapsed, and had no heartbeat for 15 minutes. Yet David is alive through the heroic efforts of a collection of special strangers from around the globe. Those incredible circumstances pale in comparison to the reality that God was in control every second, pouring out His love and comfort.

Sheba the cat patiently waits for her food, wakes everyone up for prayer, and is a playful friend - all the qualities one would expect from a true Muslim.

""One of my earliest memories is of contemplating God. I was a freckle-faced girl of five, sitting quietly in catechism class when the teacher casually said, 'God is bigger than everything.' The words hit me like a blast force. The classroom disappeared, the teacher's voice muted, and I gasped at the revelation. Bigger than the tallest tree in the yard? Bigger than a mountain? Bigger than the world? The enormity of God impressed me, but I couldn't help wondering, 'If He is bigger than anything, where is He?'" In this book, Teresa Lesher, PhD, shares her search for God. She explores factors that have made her who she is as well as influencers who shape who she aspires to be and who lead her in her quest for the Divine. She dissects basic concepts that have been essential for her understanding of God as well as paradigms that shape her experience of Him. She shares her journey along the Divine Path and closer to Divine Presence through expressions of submission to Him. This quest for God takes her to her innermost self and ends with a discovery of life, and understanding of love, and a commitment to truth"--

The United States makes significant investments in military activities that are intended to deter Russian and Iranian aggression. These investments have only grown in Europe since 2014, when Russia invaded and subsequently annexed Crimea, and remain substantial in the Middle East despite the overall trend of the United States reducing its forward posture in that theater. The increased importance of deterrence as a military mission raises the question of how the United States can most effectively and efficiently deter Russia and Iran without crowding out investments in its other key military missions--including competing with China in the Indo-Pacific. To support defense planners in crafting effective and efficient deterrence strategies, RAND researchers conducted a multimethod analysis--consisting of a literature review, roundtables with subject-matter experts, quantitative analysis, and a case study of Ukraine--to examine conventional deterrence in two theaters: U.S. European Command (EUCOM) and U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). Specifically, the researchers assessed the deterrent impacts of three categories of U.S. operations, activities, and investments (OAIs): U.S. forward presence; exercises and short-term deployments, such as bomber task force (BTF) missions; and security cooperation. In this report, the researchers describe their findings and offer recommendations for defense planners. This research was completed before the February 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. It has not been subsequently revised.

America is in crisis and we face many challenges, including racial unrest, immigration concerns, and political division, and many Christians are asking what they can do to make a difference in the midst of this confusion.

Lynn uses the power and truth of God's Word to guide us to a better understanding so that we will be equipped and motivated to make a stand for God in our familiesand communities.

It is not only obvious to Christians, but to peopleof other faith groups, as well. Thereis no question in the mind of many Americans that our nation is headed in the wrong direction, morally, spiritually, and socially.But the question is: Can we do anything about it? Is there hope that we return to the fundamental Judeo Christian principles on which our nation was founded?This book offersus hope.
