Take a roller-coaster ride of emotions through the life of a young soldier as he struggles to find purpose in his life. Journey with him as he comes face-to-face with death and disease, searching to understand why God had a special purpose in store for him. Discover how life took him to the very brink of complete hopelessness and how he came to find his purpose lying flat on his back in the middle of a major highway. Share in his incredible true stories of being rescued by God from being buried alive, facing wave after wave of enemy attacks, contracting a rare skin disease, and returning home from Vietnam only to battle a mysterious illness, while struggling daily with PTSD. Read about his painful journey to recovery and how he navigated through depression, discouragement, disappointments, and resentment to finally arrive in a place of peace, purpose, and meaning--a place where God wants for us all. Hopefully after reading about his amazing life in search for an understanding of purpose with the presence of God, you may realize that God loves you above all things, and he is with you in every aspect of your life. Trust in him for his faithfulness, his infinite wisdom, and his unfailing love. He will fulfill your purpose if you don't put any obstacles in his way. For that reason, he is donating all of his profits from the book to the Wounded Warrior Project and to the veteran's PTSD program. "You will seek and find me when you seek me with all your heart" (Jeremiah 29:13). Rick David, cowriter of A Soldier's Journey with the Presence of God

“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” –Psalm 23:5 There are some places where you just don’t expect to find God. For the men of the 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, downtown Baghdad was one of those places. Moving into the heart of Iraq and ever deeper into enemy territory, they found themselves face-to-face with the ruthless Iraqi Republican Guard and Fedayeen militia. But when the smoke cleared, God’s touch was clearly visible. Serving as a chaplain to the U.S. Marines, Lieutenant Carey Cash had witnessed the miracles that began in the desert of northern Kuwait, and found their culmination in one of the fiercest battles of Operation Iraqi Freedom. With vivid detail and gripping emotion, Lt. Cash gives a firsthand account of this amazing story–how the men of an entire battalion found God in the presence of their enemies.

In 1978, Jerry Boykin joined what would become the world's premier Special Operations unit, Delta Force. The only promise: "A medal and a body bag."

In Colombia, his task force hunted the notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar. In Panama, he helped capture the brutal dictator Manuel Noriega, liberating a nation. From Vietnam to Iran to Mogadishu, Lt. General Jerry Boykin's life reads like an action-adventure novel. Boykin's powerful story will keep you riveted as he reveals how his military duty worked in tandem with his faith to bring him through the bloody storms of foreign battle-and through the political firestorm that ambushed him in his own country.

His Final Words Are Your New Beginning It’s Good Friday. The Son of God is giving up his life. What does he want to say to us in His final hours? What does He tell the people standing at the foot of the cross, to pass down to the ages? He speaks only seven short statements. Words of forgiveness, salvation, relationship, abandonment, distress, triumph, and reunion. Seven statements that mean everything. In Seven-Mile Miracle, Pastor Steven Furtick shows us how Jesus’s last words offer mile markers for our journey in relationship with God. It’s a lifelong journey and it’s not always easy.

You will experience the Easter message more personally than ever before as you engage the words of forgiveness, salvation, relationship, abandonment, distress, triumph, reunion.

Echoes of a Prophet examines intertextual connections to Ezekiel found in John and in Second Temple literature. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain many allusions to a number of Ezekiel's oracles, while other Second Temple works refer to only a few of Ezekiel's oracles, and those only rarely. In each case, Manning examines the evidence for the presence of the allusions, studies the implied interpretational methods, and comments on the function of the allusion in advancing the author's ideas. He also analyzes John's allusions to Ezekiel: the good shepherd, the vine, the opened heavens, imagery from the "dry bones" vision, and water symbolism. He observes that John has a few unique tendencies: he alludes to all five of Ezekiel's "oracles of hope" and primarily uses that imagery to describe the giving of the Holy Spirit and new life through Jesus.
