Is there real help for the hurting people in our world? We think of the children in war, refugees adrift, patients without medicine, and those dying in droughts and floods. Lest we despair, Jesus announces that the Kingdom of God is near. This book defines the Kingdom anew and shows how it brings us hope even in the worst of circumstances. The Kingdom of God is bigger than we thought. When God was King there was liberation and enough to survive and thrive. Promises of the Kingdom’s blessings kept hope alive through defeat and devastation. While forgiving, healing, feeding, raising the dead, and praising the enemy, Jesus announced the Kingdom was at hand even before he wept over the coming destruction of Jerusalem. As a political scientist, Robert Schmidt demonstrates the political importance of the Kingdom through the centuries. He also shows how Christ continues to work through churches, organizations, and governments to bring hope through what he calls “God’s New World Society.” As a pastor he reaches out to those who have left the church. Might God still use them in Jesus’ Kingdom work? With hope in their hearts there is a lot to be done.

A Viking adventure, packed with battles, blood and gore, Raven is historical fiction at its very best, and marks the debut of an outstanding new talent. For two years Osric has lived a simple life, apprenticed to the mute old carpenter who took him in when others spurned him. But when Norsemen from across the sea burn his village, Osric is taken prisoner by these warriors. Their chief, Sigurd the Lucky, believes the Norns have woven this strange boy’s fate together with his own, and Osric begins to sense glorious purpose among this fellowship of warriors. Immersed in the Norsemen’s world and driven by their lust for adventure, Osric proves a natural warrior and forges a blood bond with Sigurd, who renames him Raven. But the Norsemen’s world is a savage one, where loyalty is often repaid in blood and where a young man must become a killer in order to survive. When the Fellowship faces annihilation from ealdorman Ealdred of Wessex, Raven chooses a bloody and dangerous path, accepting the mission of raiding deep into hostile lands to steal a holy book from Coenwolf, King of Mercia. There he will find much more than the Holy Gospels of St Jerome. He will find Cynethryth, an English girl with a soul to match his own. And he will find betrayal at the hands of cruel men, some of whom he regards as friends.

Many modern churches have drifted away from the truth of the Bible, they are more interested in having members than making disciples and those members no longer check to see if what they are taught is even in the Bible. The Word of God says that "people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" (Hosea 4:6) and that is certainly what we see today. People have no knowledge of Who God is, or what He has done, they have no understanding of Baptism and are not even able to explain why Jesus died. They believe God needs a payment in order to forgive them which is simply not true. This book is an encouragement to set aside the teachings and doctrines of men and get back to the truth of the Word of God. It's not something that someone else can do for you - it's something you must do for yourself, this book gives the reader the opportunity to do just that.

A Kingdom Divided Cannot Stand explains the importance of Christians breaking through traditions and uniting as the body of Christ. It does not matter which church a Christian chooses to attend, because ultimately they are all members of the body of Christ (Christ's church). Manmade traditions can and will hinder the promises of God in a persons life. As the end of the age quickly approaches, it is becoming more important for Christs church to unite. Find out how current events line up with biblical prophecy and how close we are to the end of the age. A Kingdom Divided Cannot Stand will answer common questions such as: What will happen next? Why did Christ allude to the days of Lot and Noah when describing the end of the age? Is the Old Law still in effect today? Are Christians accountable to the Old Law or the New Law? What did Christ do when He fulfilled the Old Law? A Kingdom Divided Cannot Stand also includes a medically updated version of the body of Christ.

This is a lucid, authoritative and well-balanced account of Anglo-Saxon history. Peter Hunter Blair's book has achieved classic status, and is published now with a new, up-to-date bibliography prepared by Simon Keynes. Between the end of the Roman occupation and the coming of the Normans, England was settled by Germanic races; the kingdom as a political unit was created, heathenism yielded to a vigorous Christian Church, superb works of art were made, and the English language - spoken and written - took its form. These origins of the English heritage are Hunter Blair's subject. The first two chapters survey Anglo-Saxon England: its wars, its invaders, its peoples and its kings. The remaining chapters deal with specific aspects of its culture: its Church, government, economy and literary achievement. Throughout the author uses illustrations and a wide range of sources - documents, archaeological evidence and place names - to illuminate the period as a whole.
