Book Description

This brightly illustrated Old Testament story about the amazing life of Joseph comes straight from the Bible, rewritten so even younger children can understand. Captivating for first readers and young listeners alike, this inspiring story teaches kids to have faith that God will help them through difficult times. As your children listen to you read or read for themselves about the beautiful coat Joseph’s father gave his son, they will be nurturing a lifelong interest in the Bible. They’ll learn about the strange dreams Joseph had—and what they meant. They’ll discover how Joseph’s brothers treated him...and how differently Joseph treated them. From rags to riches, Joseph’s life—as colorful as his coat—teaches lessons that are as important today as they were in Bible times.

Book Description

This is a collection of five short stories that feature different horrors and nightmares. Read to see the dark and disturbing answers to many 'what ifs'; read to see how easily sanity could die painfully; read to see the hopelessness that always hides in the dark. Discover what it’s like to be a few feet under the ground in ‘Enclosed.’ Find out how an author faces the monster he created in ‘Inside the Pages,’ or why another author created a novel out of a journal that contains horrific real-life experiences in ‘Diary.’ See what a thrift store item can do to a man's mind in ‘Freebie,’ and what a tragedy can do to a man of faith in ‘Confession.’

Book Description

When we think about something we need, we usually cannot overcome that thought until the perceived need is satisfied. For example, if we need food or water, our minds constantly think about how hungry or thirsty we are until we have something to eat or quench our thirst. Similarly, one who understands how much he or she is in need of God will constantly think about God. When we have faith and the desire to receive Gods grace and mercy, we will turn to the remembrance of Him. In Remember Me, and I Will Remember You, Dhikr: The Soul of Islam, author Tallal Alie Turfe, a champion for religious tolerance, underscores the importance of remembrance and how we can better use it to improve our health and lifestyle. He sheds light on the concept of remembrance and its importance as a reminder of our gratitude to the Creator. The Arabic term for remembrance is dhikr, which inspires us to do good, but it also heals, energizes, and transforms our lives. When engaging in dhikr, we feel more forgiving and enthusiastic. Dhikr is the adhesive that binds the mind and heart together. It serves as a key link in the dynamic between praising God and receiving blessings from Him. Remember Me, and I Will Remember You, Dhikr: The Soul of Islam will help you understand and use dhikr to achieve a better relationship with God and the world around us.

Book Description

A new commentary for today's world, The Story of God Bible Commentary explains and illuminates each passage of Scripture in light of the Bible's grand story. The first commentary series to do so, SGBC offers a clear and compelling exposition of biblical texts, guiding everyday readers in how to creatively and faithfully live out the Bible in their own contexts. Its story-centric approach is ideal for pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and laypeople alike. Each volume employs three main, easy-to-use sections designed to help readers live out God's story: LISTEN to the Story: Includes complete NIV text with references to other texts at work in each passage, encouraging the reader to hear it within the Bible's grand story. EXPLAIN the Story: Explores and illuminates each text as embedded in its canonical and historical setting. LIVE the Story: Reflects on how each text can be lived today and includes contemporary stories and illustrations to aid preachers, teachers, and students. —Daniel— The book of Daniel is often read for its contribution to our understanding of end-times events, but sometimes Christians have been so obsessed with this that we have missed its main message: God is in control, no matter how things look, and his kingdom will one day fill the earth. Edited by Scot McKnight and Tremper Longman III, and written by a number of top-notch theologians, The Story of God Bible Commentary series will bring relevant, balanced, and clear-minded theological insight to any biblical education or ministry.
