This book is a game changer, if taken seriously. There is so much uncertainty in the world today, and events taking place that we never thought we would see in our lifetime. As these events continue to escalate, we know it is more imperative than usual to be spiritually prepared for end-times. What is your plan? Are we truly ready for what is coming? In an inspirational handbook, Ivonne Pyke shares personal stories, scripture, spiritual insights, and a checklist of what to expect as end-times approach. She explores faith, fear, life changing plan, and the persecution of religious beliefs; the six pieces of armor that God provides His earthly followers; several matters in life that require perseverance; the three significant books in the Bible-the Books of Truth, Remembrance, and Life; and ways to thrive during the post-rapture when life as we know it has completely changed. Included is a list of get-me-by recipes that instruct how to make homemade household items such as laundry detergent and toothpaste to survive the uncertainty that accompanies a drastic change in the world. In the Last Days is a spiritual handbook that offers diverse insights into how to prepare the mind, body, and soul for end-times and the post-rapture.

The Rocks of the Cross is the story of Christ revealing Himself in the life of this father named Paul, as he journeys to be in the life of his son Jason. This story is designed to encourage parents to be actively engaged in the lives of their children, and to make a positive and long-lasting impact in their lives. It calls for committed parents to shape this generation and future ones, by actively participating in the greatest service of all: humanity. It is also a story of hope, adversity, tenacity and triumph. Triumph proven sweeter when we allow God to lead the way. Although this is a love story of a father and son, this book will also speak to a much larger audience. I say this, as we all have difficulties to traverse in life, and no one is immune from those. But, yet, it is during those adverse episodes that the essence of our character, of what we believe in and on, is tested and ultimately revealed.

Follow Elizabeth north from her cherished potato growing community to the orchards of northwest Michigan, where the harvest reaps far more than plump, red cherries.

We have been indoctrinated with the lie that belief in God is irrational. As a result, the United States is rapidly becoming a post-Christian nation. At the current rate, by 2040 most Americans will no longer identify as Christian. Mark Stelter relies on his professional experiences as a lawyer, theologian, and former college professor to carefully examine secular materialism and clearly demonstrate that it is the theistic worldview-not the atheistic worldview-that is most supported by the evidence. Stelter explores a variety of topics that include the triumph of secularism in American culture, the shift in worldviews, the separation of church and state, the academic assault on religion, moral truth versus moral relativism, the intolerance of tolerance, and much more. Post-Christian Nation is a well-documented examination of how Christianity-not atheism-prevails when tested by reason, logic, and science.

Roy presents information that allows the reader to retain what is read. For example, the major prophets can be remembered using the term JEDI from the Star Wars movie, J -Jeremiah, E - Ezekiel, D - Daniel, I - Isaiah. Roy reveals some of God's humor. 1 Kings 11:29-31. Jereboam meets the prophet Ahiah, who demonstrates that Jereboam will rule 10 0f the 12 tribes of Israel by cutting Jereboam's "new garment" into 12 pieces and giving Jereboam 10. There he stands in his diaper holding 10 rags. Try explaining that to a stranger. The Bible does tell of more serious moments such as 2 Kings 15. During the captivity, All 18 kings of the northern kingdom were bad. The last five kings became kings by murdering their predecessor, We could say the KKK existed i.e, Kings Killing Kings. Some critical information is not obvious. Who is "us" in Genesis 1:26? I And God said let us make man in our image.... Us is the trinity, God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit. They are mentioned in the first chapter of the bible. Roy brings to life the actions of biblical characters is an easy to understand manner that helps to understand scripture. Lets consider the Noah flood. The flood occurred 10 generations after Adam. The average age before the flood was 858 and after the flood it was 317. In order to compare this to today, we divide each side by 10 and get 86 and 32 ie, people died at 32 instead of the normal 86, Why? Solar radiation. We sent wasp larvae into space and proved this theory. The "windows of heaven" were the cooling clouds of a new planet. It had not rained since God created earth Gen 2:5. Water came from two directions, rain and flooding ie, Genesis 7:11. Roy also covers the activities between the Old and New testaments including Persia, Greece, Macabeans and Rome.

Tampoco hay nadie tan justo o tan bueno que no necesite a Jesucristo". -Jessica "Mi tiempo en la iglesia se volvió monótono, con la excepción de la homilía, y me sabía toda la Misa de memoria. Lo más alarmante para mí fue que sentía exactamente lo mismo antes de un servicio religioso como después. No había emoción en mi fe, solo hacer y asistir a la iglesia una vez a la semana, marcando simplemente mi deber con Dios. Creía que la salvación, o la entrada al cielo, era algo que podías ganar o lograr, y viví con esta mentalidad durante 19 años." -Monica "Salvo!!!

With raw transparency, the author tells of her journey of growing up in old-school Pentecostal religion, to living in the LGBT+ community for the better part of thirty years, to finding spiritual freedom when she was shown a different view of God and Christianity at the age of fifty-two. She discusses her battles with addictions, severe anxiety, depression, self-harm and suicidal tendencies. Written for Christians and non-Christians alike, LGBT+ and straight, this book stresses the significance of loving all people like Jesus loves all of us, right where they are. The author emphasizes that we do not have to change anything to be loved and accepted by God; and that it is not our place to try to change people. Only God can do that, and we should let Him handle His business. Controversial and entertaining, this book will reassure you that you are never alone; and contrary to what some of us are taught, you can be same sex attracted and still live a life that is pleasing to God. You simply have to open your heart and mind completely and allow God to be your guidance.

Delving beyond the mere surface comprehension of the Beatitudes, Dr. Richard Tow skillfully leads the reader on an enriching journey, exploring each one through the lens of the entire Scripture. With meticulous cross-references to biblical narratives and apostolic wisdom, all of which are firmly anchored in the teachings of Jesus, this work offers profound insights accessible to both seasoned believers and those newly embarking on their faith journey. -Joe Wyrostek, DMin President, Legacy Ministry College and Pastor, Metro Praise International Church Here is a pastor-teacher's theological reflection on what these truths mean for a true disciple of Jesus - one -who longs to grow in his or her faith and prepare themselves for their ultimate fulfillment when we "will be like Him" and see Him "just as He is" (1Jn 3:2). It is a joy and privilege to commend Beatitudes of Christ: Pathway of Blessing to pastor, student and lay persons who desire to know the truth of God's Word and be transformed by it. -James D. Hernando, PhD Professor Emeritus of New Testament, Assemblies of God Theological Seminary In Beatitudes of Christ, Dr. Richard Tow brings to light what true happiness and fulfillment are all about. He provides accurate illumination into the fact that there is no true satisfaction aside from being in Christ. He also brings to light that the teaching of Jesus through the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount is for believers who are on a path to an ultimate consummation where we shall be changed and eventually experience immortality. -Keith Collins, DD President, Generation Impact Ministries and Impact Global Fellowship

In the wave of oppression from the economy many are losing homes, jobs, savings and 401K's. Marriages and children are being attacked. Pastor burnout increases monthly, as they continue to leave their calling. When we are repeatedly hit from all sides from the enemy (Satan) we grow tired and weary. We ask where is God in all of this? We tend to lose faith. The faith we used to draw upon becomes superficial. The urgency to just survive this whole financial downturn allows us to depend on ourselves and not on the Lord. Immanuel's Soldiers Hope for the Weary is refreshment in the hope in Christ. The Bible is full of ordinary people similar to us in crisis. The Lord did not promise life would be a bed of roses, but He did promise no matter how bad things get that He will show up and deliver. We just have to willingly yield, believe and trust Him. If you have come to a point in your life where enough is enough; you just can't take the oppression merry-go-round you are on anymore, then get off of it and take Jesus' hand. His loving arms will surround you and never let you go. Dr. Fox walks you through several people and their crisis in the Word of God. She challenges you to re-evaluate your faith and trust in the Lord during your crisis. She draws upon her years of experience in street ministry in encountering the unchurched, and backslidden Christians in their loss of hope.

Why would anyone follow you? Joyful Leadership explores this provocative question and uncovers what author Carol Gabriella Norbeck discovered from more than thirty years of research and practice. The answer goes to the heart of leadership-the relationship between leader and follower-and has two parts. First, people want leaders of great character. Second, they want to follow someone who believes leadership is about service. Norbeck gathered the best leadership ideas from her research and created the know-how and the practical steps that form the leader's character. Through facilitating hundreds of leadership workshops, she's helped leaders develop the character traits others want to follow and learn how to lead people with a servant's heart. Divided into two parts, part one focuses on loving God wholly by developing Christ-centered character traits. Part two centers on loving your neighbor through servanthood. Both parts contain core leadership practices and reflections on the Christian theology that supports them. Joyful Leadership shares practical steps that show you how to become the leader others want to follow.

From the age of six until her adolescent years, author Yolanda Hill experienced inappropriate behavior from men she trusted. It fostered feelings of insecurity, guilt, shame, fear, and depression. These experiences escalated into shameful behavior. It took what felt like a lifetime to recover from these negative experiences to tell her story in Pretty Black. Hill shares her journey to her "pretty black" moment and tells how she discovered the truth, beauty, grace, and strength that was within her from the beginning. She narrates how she connected the dots as a young girl who lost touch with her biological father and experienced the same loss with her stepfather, revealing how this affected her adolescent years both positively and negatively. Pretty Black serves to help mothers and fathers understand the importance of a healthy bond between a daughter and her daddy. That bond helps a daughter make healthy decisions about her future relationships. Through this story, you'll discover the God-given strengths within the writer and how God has so beautifully designed her to become His vessel of honor. Know there are detours along the way, but faith and persistence bring her to God's expected end.

Field Meds provides you with a beautiful illustration of your inner treasure, found within the confines of your "field" or soul. Randall Welner observes that as the caretaker of your soul, when you address challenges, you can reap rewards-just as though you were an organic farmer. The caretaker of the field must cut fallen timber into movable chunks, remove the lumber, and regrade and restore the field's drainage to a viable condition. If this isn't done, the damaged property will cease to be productive. Just as important as the above, however, is after tending to the field, the caretaker can use downed tree limbs and other debris from the field to build something useful. While the effort to do all this can be immense, as the caretaker of your soul, you can focus on the areas you want to improve the most. Engage in the growth available to you, aware of your values and weakness, while benefiting from meditation in and on God's word with the insights in this disciplined approach to Christian meditation.

Fairytales are full of love, beauty, and adventure. Yet, fairytales are not real, for God writes stories far more incredible. As I flip back through chapters of our life, seasons of our story feel like a life-time ago. Yet, scars remind me that these years are a reality. It's truly a beautiful mystery how God transforms a scar into a message of hope. By sharing our realness, may you feel courage to look in the mirror and take an honest evaluation of your marriage, your relationship with your children, and the way you feel about yourself. We hope our message encourages couples to take each other by the hand and step toward healing. Every step, every moment, every choice to love is worth it.

God has a plan and a purpose for our lives. He knows the limitations of human beings, and fixed them in such a way that we all can look up to Him for understanding, direction, guidance, hope, restoration, and wisdom in our daily lives. But do we know how to listen and then follow His will? A spiritual guide that intertwines scripture with wisdom, Michael Ighoyivwi teaches believers how to communicate effectively with the true living transcendent God to nurture a closer relationship with Him and follow His divine plan. Through his guidance, spiritual seekers will learn who God is, reasons why we need to hear from Him, the barriers that hinder fluent listening, the characteristics of God's revelation, and helpful hints on how to develop better communication with Him. God Speaks to People Today is an inspirational reference manual that provides a roadmap to understanding and really hearing God when He is communicating with us.

Where would we be without our mothers? The loving women who not only gave us life, and took care of us as babies. Our mothers were unknown to us during our birth and childhood.

Why did you choose to read this book description? Is it because of the cool cover? It's okay...we have all judged a book by its cover at one time or another. Or is it because the word Chaos completely describes your life right now? Or maybe, just maybe, you thought the author was awesome and decided this book would be a New York Times Bestseller? Probably not the last scenario. If I had to guess, I'd say it has something to do with that overwhelming stress weighing down on you. Reality is, there are many people in this world facing hard times: Anxiety, incarceration, loss, addiction, divorce, sickness, and I could go on, but I need this description to fit on the back of the book...How do we overcome these overwhelming times? Great question. I don't have all the right words, which probably isn't what you want to hear from an author. But I know Who does. His Name is Jesus. And He is the only One Who can bring unexplainable peace in the midst of your Chaos. Whether you are reading this behind prison bars, in the hospital room, at the funeral home, or on the awesome World Wide Web, I hope you choose to read this book. Chaos is inevitable. It comes like a thief in the night- stealing, killing, and destroying all we hold dear. But there is hope. Where the enemy comes to destroy, God comes to rebuild. He comes to restore. He comes to bring life and joy. This book isn't some self-help book. Nor is it an autobiography. It's a collaboration of real people experiencing real pain, learning how to overcome the overwhelming. Jesus isn't just the center of this book. He's the beginning, middle, and end. And spoiler alert: He always wins.

The Place Called "There" We often think that our possessions are only physical or material either as a car, building, piece of land or other tangible assets. Just as physical possessions can be handed down generations, so also can spiritual secrets and assets be transferred like intellectual properties. There are hidden secrets from plain sight, revealed to those who by reason of use, have their senses exercised (Hebrews 5:14) to see, or/and hear, and then act. To these ones, it will belong and be entrusted because they are the ones who follow through the hidden secrets presented to them. 'The Place Called There' is a memoir of voyage of enduring faith and friendship with God, through 'the wildernesses' of advanced school of patience, trust, and perseverance (PTP).
