As a child, Elias Chacour lived in a small Palestinian village in Galilee. When tens of thousands of Palestinians were killed and nearly one million forced into refugee camps in 1948, Elias began a long struggle with how to respond. In Blood Brothers, he blends his riveting life story with historical research to reveal a little-known side of the Arab-Israeli conflict, exploring whether bitter enemies can ever be reconciled. This book offers hope and insight to help each of us learn to live at peace in a world of tension and terror.

Gold Nuggets When I became a "Born Again Christian" I was told that I had received Eternal life but I believed there was more. I set out on a search for gold. When I found something in the Bible I wanted, I spoke the Scripture and asked God to manifest it in my life. These Scriptures became my Gold Nuggets. I wrote them down and each morning I would speak them out during my prayer time. They began to slowly materialize and besides I was learning the Word of God. Throughout my studies the recurring scarlet thread that wove in and out of the Old and New Testaments was the Blood. My question was why did God place such high value on blood? I knew that the revelation of the Blood was the key to receiving unknown treasures that are available to us from God. I confessed Blood Scriptures every day for over two years, honoring Jesus for His Blood and finally the door unlocked. I was born in Calif. Married and moved to Louisiana, then Florida. From there to Illinois where I currently reside. I have four wonderful grown children. After 2 very long years in bed from Illness, facing divorced after 25 years, I felt alone, hopeless and depressed I just wanted to die. BUT THEN GOD ! I became Born Again at age 39, then God gave me a new life with hope and a purpose and no time for depression. Living Waters Ministries (22 yrs.) Ordained Minister 1992 A.I.G.A.

G.K. Chesterton was a master essayist. But reading his essays is not just an exercise in studying a literary form at its finest, it is an encounter with timeless truths that jump off the page as fresh and powerful as the day they were written. The only problem with Chesterton's essays is that there are too many of them. Over five thousand! For most GKC readers it is not even possible to know where to start or how to begin to approach them. So three of the world's leading authorities on Chesterton - Dale Ahlquist, Joseph Pearce, Aidan Mackey - have joined together to select the "best" Chesterton essays, a collection that will be appreciated by both the newcomer and the seasoned student of this great 20th century man of letters. The variety of topics are astounding: barbarians, architects, mystics, ghosts, fireworks, rain, juries, gargoyles and much more. Plus a look at Shakespeare, Dickens, Jane Austen, George MacDonald, T.S. Eliot, and the Bible. All in that inimitable, formidable but always quotable style of GKC. Even more astounding than the variety is the continuity of Chesterton's thought that ties everything together. A veritable feast for the mind and heart. While some of the essays in this volume may be familiar, many of them are collected here for the first time, making their first appearance in over a century.

A young man in despair cries out: Why cant I be gay and still be loved by God? And God replies: Yes you can! Yes you are! Once in a generation there comes a story so rare and beautiful that it changes peoples lives. The Voice of My Brothers Blood is such a story. David Shepherd is a picture of the perfect sonhandsome young teacher in an evangelical Christian ministry. Once caught up in the hedonistic gay lifestyle in San Francisco, David is convinced he has been changed by the will of God. Summoned to counsel a student who refuses to accept traditional Bible teaching on homosexuality, David knew from the moment he looked into the compelling brown eyes of Mark Ward that this defiant young man with the face of an angel would challenge everything he thought he believed. Together David and Mark find themselves swept up in a struggle for justice, searching for the strength to stand against a Goliath of religious bigotry. Liberally referencing the Bible as a weapon for truth, The Voice of My Brothers Blood is a story of adoration and conviction that jerks the sanctimonious foundation out from under religious intolerance. _________________________________________ David Charles Craley is a writer, editor and, for more than four decades, a researcher and teacher of the Bible.
