Fierce Marriage


Book Description

Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

They Walked with God


Book Description

What does it mean to walk with God? Enoch knew. In fact, he knew so well that one day he walked right into Gods eternal home without dying. Now that was a walk! A life walk involves all the activities that intersect with our lives every day. If we walked like Enoch or like righteous Noah, what would those intersections of appointments, meetings, meals, sport games, telephone conversations, text messages, meetings with friends, and discussions with family members look like? All those giants of faith listed in Hebrews 11 walked with God and are examples to us of walking in faith with God. Noah believed God would send a flood and built an ark even though he had never seen rain. Joshua and the Israelites, Deborah and Barak, Jephthah, and Gideon had faith for miraculous victories in battle. Rahab choose to leave her life of prostitution, married, and became part of the lineage of Christ. Samson asked for one last triumph of strength and fulfilled Gods plan for his life. The author unmasks the lives of eight less-known giants of faith and reveals their triumphant acts of faith and the head-hanging weaker moments not mentioned in Hebrews 11. What can these unbelievable stories mean to us? Open these pages and see.

They Called Themselves Slave


Book Description

The book is an easily readable book which shows that the English translation of dolos (slave) as servant (diakonos) is incorrect. The argument put forth is well documented, researched, and clearly presented to those of any religious or non-religious persuasion and academic level. “Interpretation is an explanation of what is not immediately plain in the Bible...because of the multifaceted character of the Bible, and its interpretation takes a variety of forms. ...A basic requirement for the understanding of these documents is the grammatico–historical interpretation or exegesis bringing out of the text the meaning the writer intended to convey and which their readers were expected to gather from it...the meaning of the text for hearers today must be related to its meaning for the hearers to whom it was first addressed.” F. F. Bruce “Scholars who deal seriously with literary texts have a name for texts that do not correspond to the actual words of an author. Such a text is called a corrupt text. It is defined as a text that has been changed from its original and reliable form to something different from that standard—a text that has been altered from the original, intentionally or unintentionally.” Leland Ryken
