A refreshing and liberating perspective to the church member who has actively participated in the life of their local church for 10, 15, 20 or more years, yet still feels spiritually dry. The author peels back the institutional veneer of the local church to delve into the spiritual dynamics that operate organically within and upon souls that believe in Jesus Christ. This divinely inspired work shines a much needed guiding light upon key faith concerns that impact the liveliness of a believer's walk, regardless of his/her situation of life. Addressed are such concerns as the revolving door of new converts, clarity about the nature of a genuine confession of faith, organic elements of God's transformation of the believer's soul and the necessity of being immersed into the revelation of Christ and His gift of God's life within us. Through this work the institutional veneer around the believer's religious life is put into perspective; thereby enabling a fluid fellowship with Jesus Christ and a vibrant servant.

In this gripping memoir, Danuta (Soderman) Pfeiffer, known to millions as the former co-host of The 700 Club with Pat Robertson, explains her sudden disappearance from the evangelical world and explores her chaotic past living under her father's imposing shadow. This is a story of navigating identities through a remarkable life. Danuta Pfeiffer was an unwed teenage mother escaping to the tundra of Alaska; a journalist who inadvertently became a television evangelist with a ringside seat to a presidential campaign; a wife c aught in a web of deceit and substance abuse. Through it all, she clings to her father's legacy, sustained by his tales of fortitude and endurance when faced with the horrors of war. Finally, living happily as a winemaker in Oregon, she finds she must once more reinvent herself, when during a sojourn to the Carpathian Mountains of Poland she uncovers long-buried family secrets. Chiseled is the story of one woman brave enough to chip away at a life of lies and finally arrive at a shining core of truth."

Following the example of Jeremiah, Jill Briscoe examines what it takes to keep faith strong in spite of life's trials and distractions. In the race of life, it's not how we begin that counts, but whether or not we have faith enough to reach a godly finish.

Since the beginning of the Neolithic revolution, a pervasive phantom has haunted humanity. It neither rustles nor rattles, nor moans upon the moors. Rather, its apparition is accompanied by the continuous, unbroken rasp of the human race, who, unified in dread, have emitted one solemn plea to a world rent asunder by evil and the abandonment of reason. That sound is the question why? All people have asked this, when evil overtakes them. Formal attempts have been carefully deliberated, for twelve thousand years, to resolve this gripping human dilemma: why is there wrong and suffering. And more tormentingly, why, if there is a God, does evil exist? How can it exist? Many have the answer, only to be turned away. Now, it can be answered. Everyone has heard the story of Adam and Eve, their fall from God, and the angel posted at Paradise to turn them away. The story of fallen, broken man is well known, and his journey through a world wracked with madness and pain is well documented. But what if the real story was skipped over by the narrative? What if the angel at the gates of Paradise was only a figurehead of something much larger? The Flaming Sword is a guard to a gate: but the guard is more than a mere angel, and what it guards is more than the perfect place. It guards perfection itself. Like the angel at Eden, it is programmed to attack whatever nears it charge, including mankind. Be warned, and take heed: for the answer may be far more haunting than the question ever dreamed.

Virtually every trouble spot on the planet has some sort of religious component. One need only consider Iraq and Afghanistan, Iran, Israel and Palestine, Turkey, India, Pakistan, Russia, and China, to name but a few. Looming behind national issues, of course, is the problem of regional Islamist extremism and transnational Islamist terrorism. In all of these sectors, religious tensions, ideas and actors are of great geo-political importance to the United States. Yet, argues Thomas Farr, our foreign policy is gravely handicapped by an inability to understand the role of religion either nationally or globally. There is a strong disinclination in American diplomacy to consider religious factors at all, either as part of the problem or part of the solution. In this engaging and well-written insider account, Farr offers a closely reasoned argument that religious freedom, the freedom to practice one's own religion in private and in public, is an essential prerequisite for a stable, durable democratic society. If the U.S. wants to foster democracy that lasts, he says, it must focus on fostering religious liberty, especially in its public manifestations, properly limited in a way that advances the common good. Although we ourselves have developed a remarkably successful model of religious freedom, our foreign policy favors an aggressive secularism that is at odds with the American model. It is essential, says Farr, that we take an approach that recognizes the great importance of religion in people's lives.
