We've all been there. Knowing on some deeper level that God is present no matter how things look, but still feeling the trickle of doubt. And wondering why the God whose faithfulness is never supposed to fail seems to be turning a giant deaf ear toward us. It's not always like this (thank goodness!), but silent seasons are common in the life of any honest Christian. In Silent Savior, A. J. Gregory navigates that labyrinth of sorrow, pain, angst, and doubt on the way to a soul-deep recognition of God's infinite faithfulness and perpetual, if sometimes silent, presence. And she encourages readers to keep believing he's there even when that silence seems deafening.

This thoughtful and honest look at the times God is silent helps readers understand and believe God is still there even during the hard times.

A Believer’s Conversation with God is a collection of poetry in which you explore your personal faith and seek to testify to the presence of God in your daily life. “Faith” is a thoughtful meditation on the meaning of moving forward with confidence in God: Let me surrender, Let me yield, To receive the blessing . . . Walk in the spirit until you see it manifest itself on earth. Trust that it is on its way. “Beautiful Son” speaks of the heavenly protection and guidance that you claim for your son as he goes out in the world: My beautiful son, Handsome son, I’ve got to keep you saturated with the blood of Jesus . . . I will do this with the word of God. I will do this with prayer. I will do this with praise and worship . . . I will do this with love. A Believer’s Conversation with God is designed to offer a portrait of your own faith journey and to encourage the reader who may be on a similar path.

American Indian Rhetorics of Survivance presents an original critical and theoretical analysis of American Indian rhetorical practices in both canonical and previously overlooked texts: autobiographies, memoirs, prophecies, and oral storytelling traditions. Ernest Stromberg assembles essays from a range of academic disciplines that investigate the rhetorical strategies of Native American orators, writers, activists, leaders, and intellectuals.The contributors consider rhetoric in broad terms, ranging from Aristotle's definition of rhetoric as "the faculty . . . of discovering in the particular case what are the available means of persuasion," to the ways in which Native Americans assimilated and revised Western rhetorical concepts and language to form their own discourse with European and American colonists. They relate the power and use of rhetoric in treaty negotiations, written accounts of historic conflicts and events, and ongoing relations between American Indian governments and the United States. This is a groundbreaking collection for readers interested in Native American issues and the study of language. In presenting an examination of past and present Native American rhetoric, it emphasizes the need for an improved understanding of multicultural perspectives.

In the fullness of time, God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, to sit on David’s throne as a conquering cosmic king. He demonstrated His kingly power and wisdom in a variety of ways, but none so spectacularly as by His many miracles. These miracles vanquished demonic forces, overcame nature, removed the curse’s sting, and crushed the serpent’s head through His resurrection from the dead. However, too often, these miracles are only appreciated as historical events or as a compilation of isolated stories. In The King in His Beauty, Michael Babcock helps readers understand the relevancy of those miracles as redemptive signs that reveal the King in all His salvific splendor. Each miracle is part of the grand message of new creation.

In the Bible, milk and honey speaks of God’s bountiful provision and symbolizes our basic need for solid spiritual food and sweet communion with the triune God through Christ. With that in mind, this devotional book dwells on God’s sustaining grace revealed throughout Scripture. Unlike some daily devotional books that are an assortment of meditations with no thematic structure, Milk and Honey provides brief devotional thoughts that cover the major contours of Scripture in the course of a year. Bible books are divided among twelve pastors so that each month covers a particular portion of Scripture. The result is a devotional survey of the Bible by able expositors of God’s Word.
