More than a Biblical case for gay marriage, The Bed Keeper takes readers on a journey through space and time within the pages of Scripture, and reveals ancient prophecies long forgotten by the Church (both Catholic and Protestant), which illustrates teachings pertaining to not only the world wide gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community, but indeed the Return of Jesus Christ Himself! Along the way, we will discover that Jesus taught LGBT people are naturally born so from our mothers' wombs, that the Apostle Paul ordained single gender Holy Matrimony, and that God demands we be affirmed in Churches all over the globe as equal partakers in the Kingdom of Heaven! The Bed Keeper is a message of hope for the LGBT community, complete with Scripture-based prophetic instructions for the Church to at last become all adorned like a Bride for her Bridegroom!

Sadly, refugees are some of the most traumatized people in the world. Although their backgrounds vary, all share a commonality of determination and perseverance to overcome their complex challenges, both in the past and in the future while attempting to move forward into a new chapter. Odu Kpwere Amari'di, a South Sudanese immigrant living in Canada, details his journey through life to date, beginning with his birth in Uganda to refugee parents who fled Sudan during war and eventually returned to their homeland with him to build a new life. As he reveals a compelling look into his humble African background through relatable anecdotes about his childhood memories, regrets, missed opportunities, and other experiences intertwined with historical narratives, Amari’di explains why he is a refugee, the continuing plight of refugees, and the struggles as their fight continues to shun the perceptions and judgments and bear a burden of shame for allegedly abandoning their home countries in pursuit of a better life. My Life as a Refugee is the memoir of a South Sudanese immigrant that chronicles his life from birth to date as he learned valuable lessons about life, love, and inclusion while persevering through his challenges.

Just Christianity takes the reader on a logical, historical and scientific journey through history showing how God's plan for humanity has been revealed. This book attempts to answer the skeptic's questions and in that sense it is apologetic, however, it also seeks to inspire the reader to take some first steps on a walk of faith. Christians will find it an invaluable tool for personal evangelism and encouragement, and enquirers a challenge to take the story of salvation seriously. Just Christianity was first written in the 1990's as a series of long letters. They were sent discretely to a man who was reluctant to discuss Christianity openly. He was dying of cancer. The letters answered many of his questions and doubts, and challenged him to accept the gospel message. He gave his life to Christ in his eleventh hour, a few days before he went to meet his Lord and Saviour face to face. This book is dedicated to the memory of him and his wife.

This book is about questions and about statements made in the Bible. I found myself having many questions after reading from a King James Holy Bible that was revised by the Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America. Th e New Testament was also done by the same division of the churches of Christ.

The Exodus has become a core tradition of Western civilization. Millions read it, retell it, and celebrate it. But did it happen? Biblical scholars, Egyptologists, archaeologists, historians, literary scholars, anthropologists, and filmmakers are drawn to it. Unable to find physical evidence until now, many archaeologists and scholars claim this mass migration is just a story, not history. Others oppose this conclusion, defending the biblical account. Like a detective on an intricate case no one has yet solved, pioneering Bible scholar and bestselling author of Who Wrote the Bible? Richard Elliott Friedman cuts through the noise — the serious studies and the wild theories — merging new findings with new insight. From a spectrum of disciplines, state-of-the-art archeological breakthroughs, and fresh discoveries within scripture, he brings real evidence of a historical basis for the exodus — the history behind the story. The biblical account of millions fleeing Egypt may be an exaggeration, but the exodus itself is not a myth. Friedman does not stop there. Known for his ability to make Bible scholarship accessible to readers, Friedman proceeds to reveal how much is at stake when we explore the historicity of the exodus. The implications, he writes, are monumental. We learn that it became the starting-point of the formation of monotheism, the defining concept of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Moreover, we learn that it precipitated the foundational ethic of loving one’s neighbors — including strangers — as oneself. He concludes, the actual exodus was the cradle of global values of compassion and equal rights today.
