In many ways, James is the forgotten epistle of the New Testament. Throughout church history the Epistle of James has encountered struggle, opposition and just plain neglect. In the period of the early church, it struggled to receive full acceptance in the canon of Scripture. At the time of the Reformation, it faced fierce opposition, particularly from the great Reformer Martin Luther. Luther dismissed the epistle outright, referring to it as an epistle of straw. Luther also charged that James mangles the Scriptures and thereby opposes Paul and all Scripture. In our modern age, James has suffered from both lay and scholarly neglect. When it comes to the New Testament epistles, the writings of Paul, Peter and John garner most of the attention. James and his epistle have been largely ignored and neglected throughout history. This is unfortunate, because it has much to say to us particularly regarding the crucial subject of the Christian life. Perhaps no other letter in the New Testament so comprehensively addresses the Christian life as does the Epistle of James. It is the purpose of this book to explore the Christian life through the panoramic lens of this grand epistle.

Pete Greig, the acclaimed author of Red Moon Rising, has written his most intensely personal and honest account yet in God on Mute, a book born out of his wife Samie's fight for her life and diagnosis of a debilitating brain tumor. Greig asks the timeless questions of what it means to suffer and to pray and to suffer through the silence because your prayers seem unanswered. This silence, Greig relates, is the hardest thing. The world collapses. Then all goes quiet. Words can't explain, don't fit, won't work. People avoid you and don't know what to say. So you turn to Him and you pray. You need Him more than ever before. But somehow . . . even God Himself seems on mute. In this heart-searching, honest, and deeply profound book, Pete Greig looks at the hard side of prayer, how to respond when there seem to be no answers, and how to cope with those who seek to interpret our experience for us. Here is a story of faith, hope, and love beyond all understanding.

Can I work for an energy company and still be a Christian? This question from a young professional working in the author’s London trading department sparked a journey that resulted in this book. Trading With God addresses the relevancy of the Christian faith in today’s workplace. Recognizing that Christianity is a 24/7 endeavor, this book provides the framework and tools for the reader to make the critical connection between your actual daily work activities and what God created you to do. This enables Christians to find the most meaning in their jobs and journey of faith. Trading With God delivers in three parts. First, it grounds readers with history, scriptural references, and summarized concepts of faithful work developed over time by various church theologians. Second, a practical threefold model for Christians is introduced for daily application throughout their working lives. And third, the book builds seven steps to apply this model, which are illustrated by personal stories based upon the author’s thirty-four years of professional workplace experiences and theological research. Integrating faith and work using these seven steps can infuse more meaning into any vocation and can transform all workers, as well as the workplace and the wider community.

How does quantum physics relate to the Bible? Can words move mountains? How did Jesus supersede the laws of physics? There are amazing similarities between the teachings of Jesus and the discoveries of the new physics, quantum theory. The concept of speaking to mountains and trees may not be religious metaphor, but laws of a new physics that have not been fully understood.

In this book, you will discover that your words and your faith (beliefs) are unseen forces that affect everything in your world. You are the one giving substance to your world through words!
