Jesus had a lot to say about the way we live out our daily lives. In the process, he asks a lot of questions that are insightful, penetrating, and thought-provoking, all demanding an honest appraisal of oneself and an appropriate, life-changing response. He asks the same questions today. For example, Why are you so afraid? What do you want me to do for you? What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? This book explores a sampling of the questions Jesus asked, as he walked the streets of the ancient world. Every divine inquiry was/is designed to confront, convict, challenge, conform, and/or comfort (cf John 16:7-13) His listeners. His intention has always been the same – to give us a fresh, new set of eyes with which to assess our individual lives, address areas of personal weakness, encourage spiritual and emotional maturity, and press us to apply practical life-principles that actually work in everyday living. His purpose is discipleship, Christlikeness. His objective is to move us to consider the deepest of truths regarding the person I am, the person I could be, and the person I must be.

Uncover the captivating history of the highest-performace cars in America, illustrated with beautiful photography. The American muscle car began not in the factories of the big three automakers, but in the garages and dealerships of a hot-rod subculture bent on making the hottest, highest-performance cars on the street. The Complete Book of American Muscle Supercars catalogs these amazing cars, along with the builders who unleashed them on the American scene. From Michigan's Royal Pontiac dealership and the souped-up Royal Pontiac Bobcats they built and sold, to the new cars from such fabled names as Carroll Shelby, Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge, Nickey Chevrolet, Don Yenko, George Hurst, Baldwin-Motion, Calloway, SLP, and Steve Saleen. This gorgeously illustrated book chronicles the outstanding contribution of the tuner/builder to American automotive history through the amazing machines they created. From the oldest of these muscle tuners commanding top dollar at today's classic-car auctions, to the latest vehicles by Ford and Chrysler, with their SVT and SRT divisions, this book gives readers a full and fascinating look at American high-performance in its purest form.
