The third book from Behind the Lies is somewhat different from the first two books in the series. In the first two books, there is constant motion heading toward terrible destruction. In the third, there is a shift to introduce human feelings along with events to show how the characters, who are dealing with their pasts, achieve their next destructive goals, while still dealing with being human. In this book, I introduce two main characters; one had been in all three books of the series. His companion is new to the book. They are full of passion and emotions that we tend to experience in our everyday lives. It is an experience of rebuilding lives after tragedies, deep loss, revenge, and manipulation by governments, thrilling action, and human beings overcoming diversity, each trying their best to survive. It is my final book in this series. I hope that you enjoy it as it has some reality based on my own life.
The image of Eddie jumping over the mountain side plays and replays in Alex's mind: the last sight of his best friend, Eddie Chavez. Ditching school, the two had biked to the mountains where they often went to escape the pressures of family and school. Now Eddie has disappeaered and Alex can't find him. Alex goes for help, but finds only suspicion as police and social workers barrage him with questions. They think Eddie ran away or worse--that Alex killed him. Alex is sure Eddie is still on the mountain, injured, maybe even dead. As the situation grows beyond Alex's control, the one who came back regrets that he did."

Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.
