Faith and facts are reconciled in this revelatory examination of biblical and secular truths that follows the path to God through science, not around it. Always a man of science, Jim Johnson accepted Christ into his life shortly after his fiftieth birthday. This acceptance of God’s unseeable power did not shake his belief in science—it strengthened it. Through years of research on the world’s evolution, Johnson found that in studying every new hypothesis and theory, he believes even more in God’s universal role. Timeless Vision: Understanding God’s Creation through the Lens of Science bridges the gap between faith and science. Johnson examines the natural progression of Earth’s creation alongside the seven biblical days, explains the conundrum of time, and expands upon the ever-evolving relationship humanity has with science and religion. Through analyzing scripture with detailed data and using science to bolster Christian beliefs, Johnson reveals just how rare and privileged Earth and human life truly are. It is through studying science and faith together, not apart, that we can see how God’s plan was developed and why He did it. One is not complete without the other. Let Johnson lead you down the path less traveled—the one of science and faith—and show how God gave humanity these ways to discover Him more fully and completely.

Imagine a world where time isn't just a passing constant, but an all-consuming god, who created smaller worlds governed by time guardians. A young girl who's at the center of it all, playing a role that even she couldn't have imagined! Jennene Lynn Hauser, a feisty, intelligent brunette finds herself in a world where she's a prophet, seeing not just the past, present, and future, but multiple time orbs. Where she comes from and how she's able to do this remains a mystery, until one night where she's confronted by a massive abomination created by a horrifying entity, known as Viral intelligence Species (VIS), and she's inhabited by an all-powerful god who refers to her only as the vessel. Her mother, Morgan Sue Ann Hauser, kept part of this dark secret from her, not realizing the full extent of it, ultimately bringing out this immense power by leaving her a heartbroken, empty shell and making her a gateway for a cosmic mediator, for reasons unknown to all. All this was just the beginning for a race of supreme beings called the Zanianites, who find out their existence was to purge worlds contaminated by this powerful, mind-altering virus hell-bent on wiping out all life at the sick and sadistic hands of a corrupted time guardian named TarsisBulvis. There's tears, laughter, memorable characters, and even some characters who will leave you keeping your lights on late at night. All this and more on this epic sci-fi thrill ride, and many more to come, in Timeless Visions, volume 1.

This “luminescent” (Kirkus Reviews) story of anger and art, loss and redemption will appeal to fans of Lisa Graff’s Lost in the Sun and Vince Vawter’s Paperboy. NOMINATED FOR 16 STATE AWARDS! AN ALA NOTABLE BOOK AN ILA TEACHERS CHOICE A KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR Arthur T. Owens grabbed a brick and hurled it at the trash picker. Arthur had his reasons, and the brick hit the Junk Man in the arm, not the head. But none of that matters to the judge—he is ready to send Arthur to juvie forever. Amazingly, it’s the Junk Man himself who offers an alternative: 120 hours of community service . . . working for him. Arthur is given a rickety shopping cart and a list of the Seven Most Important Things: glass bottles, foil, cardboard, pieces of wood, lightbulbs, coffee cans, and mirrors. He can’t believe it—is he really supposed to rummage through people’s trash? But it isn’t long before Arthur realizes there’s more to the Junk Man than meets the eye, and the “trash” he’s collecting is being transformed into something more precious than anyone could imagine. . . . Inspired by the work of folk artist James Hampton, Shelley Pearsall has crafted an affecting and redemptive novel about discovering what shines within us all, even when life seems full of darkness. “A moving exploration of how there is often so much more than meets the eye.” —Booklist, starred review “There are so many things to love about this book. Remarkable.” —The Christian Science Monitor
