The Hope of creation [mankind] characterizes the Hope of the Creator [God], who made mankind in His image. Mankind's relationship with wisdom to realize all Hope and purpose tragically imploded when mankind chose, his Hope & purpose to become God. In that moment, untruth was born. The Word from untruth characterized the Hope of Evil created by creation. The Word from Truth characterized the Hope of Good created by God, the Creator. Only God possessed the power to create. The plan to restore creation to its original purpose through the knowledge of Truth from God, is the essence of the battle fought in a realm that has no beginning and is without end. The assimilation of that Truth challenges the seed of hope, that mankind can somehow recognize that creation can rule and serve God, but not be God. This is mankind's hope for help, and this Perspective of Hope. Jay Allan Shears is an Orthodox Jew, who found his way through the whiles of life to his Messiah, Jesus Christ. He is the Board Chair of several companies, with extensive multicultural, high technology, marketing, and business development experience. Jay is the winner of several awards & patents, with notable training from the Harvard Business School in Executive Leadership. He is a much sought after speaker and "thinker' traveling extensively as the Lord orders his path.

For decades, we've been shocked by images of violent clashes between Israelis and Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. But for all their power, those images leave us at a loss: from our vantage at home, it's hard for us to imagine the struggles of those living in the midst of the fighting. Now, American - born Israeli David Shulman takes us right into the heart of the conflict with Dark Hope, an eye - opening chronicle of his work as a member of the peace group Ta'ayush, which takes its name from the Arabic for ''living together.'' With Dark Hope, Shulman has written a book of deep moral searching, an attempt to discover how his beloved Israel went wrong - - and how, through acts of compassionate disobedience, it might still be brought back.
