“In the light of eternity, how important is it?” As one of Max Edwards’ favorite sayings, these words depict Max’s life, which was characterized by laying aside the things of mere earthly importance—a successful farming career, a comfortable home, closeness to friends and family—for pursuits of eternal significance instead. From obedience in day-to-day decisions to uprooting his whole family, Max strove to accomplish whatever God would have him do. Following God’s call, he, his wife, Dixie, and their children left all that they knew to go to Brazil as missionaries. Through all the adventures and uncertainties, and with each new opportunity, Max and Dixie boldly followed God. As they obeyed, they saw his faithfulness in their lives, from developing camping ministries to bringing God’s light to places crippled with spiritism.

The action of The Epic of Paul begins with that conspiracy formed at Jerusalem against the life of the apostle which in the sequel led to a prolonged suspension of his free missionary career. It embraces the incidents of his removal from Jerusalem to Cæsarea, of his imprisonment at the latter place, of his journey to Rome for trial before Cæsar, and of his final martyrdom. The design of the poem as a whole is to present, through conduct on Paul's part and through speech from him, a living portrait of the man that he was, together with a reflex of his most central and most characteristic teaching.

God uses people daily to communicate His fragrance and message to us. Too often we dont check to see what aroma or impression we are leaving for others to see, hear, or smell. After visiting someones home or before checking out of a motel, or when moving, we double check to make sure we havent left anything behind. Even criminals check to make sure they havent left any clues at the crime scene to identify them. A story reminded me of this. A robber thought he had committed the perfect crime. He assumed he left no clues behind. But he didn't count on someone remembering how he smelled. The smell he left behind was what helped convict him. Yes, we leave something everywhere we go. Stuart Holden reminded a young man moving from a boarding house of this fact when the young man said, he was just double checking to make sure he wasn't leaving anything behind. Theres one thing you will leave behind, young man, your influence.

Why is God restoring apostles to His Church? Because restoration of the apostolic ministry is necessary for the Church to complete its mission on earth. We are now experiencing the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit the world has ever known, and we should expect to see multitudes swept into the Kingdom as a result. In this book, John Eckhardt reveals how the apostolic demension affects the preaching, teaching, worship, prayer and giving of the local church--and how apostolic leadership will point the way toward fulfillment of the Great Commission.

You cannot understand China without meeting heroes like Samuel Lamb! In an age when secularism and materialism numb the human spirit, China's amazing Christians demonstrate the power of living faith. In 1950 China's Christians numbered about a million. Today, estimates range between 30 and 70 million! How did this body of believers grow so rapidly under atheism and materialism? Bold as a Lamb is the true story of Pastor Samuel Lamb. Imprisoned for more than twenty years for preaching the Gospel, he became the beloved secret pastor to hundreds of fellow inmates. After his release in 1978, he built a phenomenal "house church" congregation of more than a thousand. Soon, however, he became the special target of those determined to destroy the mushrooming house church movement in China. His church was closed and his ministry tools were confiscated. Yet this man remains undaunted, standing boldly -- and with spiritual grace, against fierce opposition. This is the fascinating, eye-opening account of one of China's best-known pastors, his dauntless congregation, and how they found joy and optimism in the face of relentless persecution.

Are you tired of your life being out of balance? Tired of the struggle that no matter how many things you try juggling at once, you always seem to fall behind? Then the "catch-up" causes you to get all stressed out and the cycle seems to never end? You've taken stress courses, gone on vacations, practiced yoga, and read magazines in your doctor's or dentist's office...all to no avail. Well, rather than continue to punish yourself with this never ending, vicious cycle, learn the simple truth from this book - that life does not need to be lived this way. In this book, Heriberto "Hery" Alonso will show you: - The proper order of priorities to help get and keep your life well-balanced. - The importance of these priorities and detailed elaboration on them. - Guidance to running the race of life better and finishing your goals/projects. - How to live with an attitude that will provide a strong mindset and help you get back up each time after a setback...without beating yourself up. - How to continue hoping when all hope is gone. - Guidance to single women desiring a future husband without wasting more time. - How to deal with life's inevitable scenarios (Imperfections, Waiting, & Working). Most people do try to maintain a balanced life. While the efforts are there, most times it's like chasing the wind because they are not focusing on what's truly important. The approach I present in Blessed, Balanced & Complete, drawn from my own personal experiences and biblical principles, goes far beyond the simple attempts to acquire balance. A must read!

The Bible tells Christians to expect persecution—and those pressures are daily rising in our culture. How do we respond with faith rather than fear to cancel culture and weaponized media narratives? The answer: Being filled with and following the Holy Spirit as the early Church did in the Book of Acts. This is the only force powerful enough to turn riots into revivals, darkness into light, hardship into triumph, and fear into bold faith.
