An ancient chalice with great, mystical powers is buried in the heart of a fearsome, haunted desert. At night, a trader secretly overhears two passing army deserters and learns that it has been found. And that the soldiers may be on a journey to re-claim it, but have lost their way. Hoping to obtain this chalice in order to bring peace to his war-torn world, he appears to them and offers his services as guide. In their dangerous company, he searches with them for the legendary Cup of Knowledge - the soldiers unaware that he knows of this mystic treasure that they themselves are seeking. The plans of all three begin to go awry as they enter the realm of the destructive yellow demon, where the chalice has been cached. A lethal conflict leaves the trader alone with the demon, with whom he strikes a deal that will have grave consequences for the entire world. Many years later, with the help of a young friend, he seeks a way to set matters right again. Decades in the making, this story was inspired by a legend in Persian literature. Presented as an ancient, recovered manuscript, this fantasy evokes the oral, storytelling traditions of the bards of old. Events, visions, desert landscapes - all are revealed and swiftly carried along in the enchanting, deftly phrased lines of the tale's rhyming, evenly metered river of verses. A story for the times we find ourselves living in that will appeal to fantasy lovers, young and old alike.

Jonathan Beecher, a middle-aged widower and small-town store owner, has never asked for much. But lately, all too much is being asked of him. The bombing of Pearl Harbor plunges America into World War II and deeply fractures Jonathan's own family. His eldest son, a civilian contractor, is trapped on a Japanese-occupied island in the Pacific. Jonathan's feckless younger son ignores his father's pleas to stay home and joins the army. And his bright, devoted daughter, who Jonathan hoped would go to college, elopes with a brutally abusive man instead. Jonathan has always met adversity with quiet faith, but as his emotional and financial losses accumulate, so do his doubts. In the midst of his pain, Sarah, a widow herself, emerges as a kind, compelling friend. Powerfully drawn to Sarah, Jonathan struggles to remain true to his late wife. James D. Shipman's tender, wise novel examines the paradox of human suffering: how irrevocable loss, if we are willing to let it, begets spiritual gain.

“I believe that the Bible speaks not merely to personal, family, and church issues, but to national, community, and governmental issues if we would take the time to listen.” –James L. Garlow Conservative Christians admit that they do not speak out on political or cultural issues because they do not know how to support their beliefs from a biblical basis, according to a recent poll. Instead, they remain silent on critical issues like marriage, racism, and transgender issues because they feel uninformed and ill-equipped to defend their beliefs. New York Times bestselling author and pastor James L. Garlow offers the solution—a practical, biblical guide for the 21st century Christian. Well Versed: Biblical Answers to Today’s Tough Issues (ISBN: 978-1-62157-550-4; $14.99; June 2016) informs and prepares readers to tackle the important issues of the day and engage with those around them in a loving, Scripturally-based manner. In Well Versed, readers will learn Biblical responses to: Religion in the Public Square - Purpose of Government, the First Amendment, and Political Correctness Family and Life Issues - Marriage, School Choice, Abortion, Sexual Orientation, and Healthcare Economics - Capitalism vs. Socialism, Taxes, Debt, Welfare, and Minimum Wage Law and Society - Judiciary, Hate Crimes, Social Justice, and Racism Foreign Policy and World Issues - National Defense, Immigration, Israel, the Environment, Islam, and Terrorism Political Participation - Media and Civil Disobedience

Teaching and Learning from Within brings together theory, research, and practice on core reflection, an approach that focuses on people’s strengths as the springboard for personal growth and serves every human being involved in education–including students, teachers, school principals, and university faculty. This approach supports the essential role of authenticity in the development of the whole person. It has been used in contexts around the world and has shown great promise in helping to re-chart the course for education and to re-think its purpose in global and democratic societies. The book looks at the current educational context and the need for core reflection; introduces the theory and its linkages to previous studies in numerous disciplines; presents various applications in multinational research and practice—with teachers, with students and schools, and with teacher educators; and highlights ongoing work in around the world along with future plans, opportunities, and resources for professional development and research. .
