Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manger scenes. The baby Jesus. Mary. Joseph. Shepherds, Wise men, or Magi as some called them. Cows. A donkey. A dog. Angels. A star. One young shepherd boy who heard the angels and visited the blessed stable carved what he had seen (all except the angels that he had never been able to carve) and presented it to the Christ child. Through the years the crèche as some called it, was lost or misplaced or hidden. Legends grew up around it. Some said the baby Jesus had kissed it, thus passing some of his miraculous power into it. Rumor proclaimed that just by touching it to their lips a person could have eternal life. Dawn and Stephen Nicholas wanted desperately to have children, but it was not to be. They decided to invest in a coffee shop in small, but growing and bustling Newnan, Georgia. It had been owned previously by a mysterious, often Santa Claus clad, figure named Ben Bishop who, it was rumored, had been a spy during World War II. Was it possible that during his travels he had somehow found out where the marvelous crèche was hidden and had been the last keeper of that secret? In the reconstruction of their Christmas Coffee Shoppe, Dawn and Stephen stumbled onto something that surprised them and ultimately could change their lives. However, they soon discovered that the same spirit of the same evil King Herod that had massacred the children of Bethlehem in an effort to destroy the Christ child, was alive, was well, was in their town at Christmas and still wanted to destroy the Christ of Christmas. Christmas Day finally arrived and with it came the conclusion of the 2000-year-old mystery in an amazing, angelic crescendo that would wake the whole town. Christmas Crèche-endo is a mystery, action Christmas story that combines many of the elements that make Christmas special. At the end you may find yourself wishing that you could spend a Christmas like that in a town like Newnan. If you ever do, listen for the heavenly music of angels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encore means "again, once more" in music and is often the call of an audience for a repeat of a performance. Christmas Crèche-endo Encore is the written encore to Allan B. Thames' book Christmas Crèche-endo in which a whole town experiences a Christmas performance of angelic music. In "Encore", eight year old Angelica Lynn experiences a contact with angels when visiting her grandfather, known to some folks simply as 'the old man'. The 'old man' lives on a hill where for decades he has put out a Christmas display in his yard complete with Baby Jesus, Mary, Joseph, angels and assorted Christmas lights. One year he decides to use various Christmas hymns to play each Sunday night of Advent to inspire hearts and souls just before he turns on the lights for that night. One evening when expectations are the highest, his sound system fails and it looks like divine intervention will be required. Many, many years later Angelica Lynn has returned to her grandfather's old house just before Thanksgiving to prepare it to sell after the holiday. As she confronts memories from her earlier days with 'the old man' she is conflicted about selling the house. One night changes all that. Visiting with Angelica Lynn in her return to the yellow house on the hill are her granddaughter Grace and grand-nephew Zade. As always when those two get together, adventures ensue. Adding their knowledge and expertise to this book are Allan's granddaughter, Grace (written adventures of Grace and Zade), his grandson Neal (rear cover photo) and another grandson Zade (angel drawings). Christmas Crèche-endo Encore is an encore and features an encore. Or two. If you read Christmas Crèche-endo first, perhaps you, too, will be calling for this encore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The perfect Christmas gift for anyone interested in the historical background behind the birth of Jesus of Nazareth." — Robert J. Hutchinson, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Bible, The Dawn of Christianity, and Searching for Jesus. "Utterly refreshing and encouraging." — Eric Metaxas, New York Times bestselling author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy and Martin Luther "The best book I know about the Magi." — Sir Colin John Humphreys, Ph.D., author of The Mystery of the Last Supper Modern biblical scholars tend to dismiss the Christmas story of the “wise men from the East” as pious legend. Matthew’s gospel offers few details, but imaginative Christians filled out the story early on, giving us the three kings guided by a magical star who join the adoring shepherds in every Christmas crèche. For many scholars, then, there is no reason to take the gospel story seriously. But are they right? Are the wise men no more than a poetic fancy? In an astonishing feat of detective work, Dwight Longenecker makes a powerful case that the visit of the Magi to Bethlehem really happened. Piecing together the evidence from biblical studies, history, archeology, and astronomy, he goes further, uncovering where they came from, why they came, and what might have happened to them after eluding the murderous King Herod. In the process, he provides a new and fascinating view of the time and place in which Jesus Christ chose to enter the world. The evidence is clear and compelling. The mysterious Magi from the East were in all likelihood astrologers and counselors from the court of the Nabatean king at Petra, where the Hebrew messianic prophecies were well known. The “star” that inspired their journey was a particular planetary alignment—confirmed by computer models—that in the astrological lore of the time portended the birth of a Jewish king. The visitors whose arrival troubled Herod “and all Jerusalem with him” may not have been the turbaned oriental kings of the Christmas carol, but they were real, and by demonstrating that the wise men were no fairy tale, Mystery of the Magi demands a new level of respect for the historical claims of the gospel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new and substantially expanded Third Edition, Philip Jenkins continues to illuminate the remarkable expansion of Christianity in the global South--in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Drawing upon the extensive new scholarship that has appeared on this topic in recent years, he asks how the new Christianity is likely to affect the poor, among whom it finds its most devoted adherents. How should we interpret the enormous success of prosperity churches across the Global South? Politically, what will be the impact of new Christian movements? Will Christianity contribute to liberating the poor, to give voices to the previously silent, or does it threaten only to bring new kinds of division and conflict? Does Christianity liberate women, or introduce new scriptural bases for subjection? Acclaim for previous editions of The Next Christendom: Named one of the Top Religion Books of 2002 by USA Today Named One of the Top Ten Religion Books of the Year by Booklist (2002) Winner of the Christianity Today Book Award in the category of "Christianity and Culture" (2002) "Jenkins is to be commended for reminding us, throughout the often gripping pages of this lively work...that the history of Christianity is the history of innovative--and unpredictable--adaptations." --The New York Times Book Review "This is a landmark book. Jenkin's thesis is comprehensively researched; his analysis is full of insight; and his projection of the future may indeed prove to be prophetic." --Baptist Times "A valuable and provocative look at the phenomenon widely ignored in the affluent North but likely to be of enormous importance in the century ahead.... The Next Christendom is chillingly realistic about the relationship between Christianity and Islam." --Russell Shaw, Crisis "If the times demand nothing less than a major rethinking of contemporary global history from a Christian perspective, The Next Christendom will be one of the significant landmarks pointing the way." --Mark Noll, Books & Culture

Book excerpt: The two-time Newbery medalist has crafted “a loving representation of a relationship between parent and child” in post-WWII America (Publishers Weekly, starred review). This is the story of young Liz, her father, and their strained relationship. Dad has been away at WWII for longer than she can remember, and they begin their journey of reconnection through a hunting shirt, cherry pie, tender conversation, and the crow call. This allegorical story shows how, like the birds gathering above, the relationship between the girl and her father is graced with the chance to fly. “The memory of a treasured day spent with a special person will resonate with readers everywhere.” —School Library Journal (starred review) “Beautifully written, the piece reads much like a traditional short story . . . the details of [Ibatoulline’s] renderings gracefully capture a moment in time that was lost. Relevant for families whose parents are returning from war, the text is also ripe for classroom discussion and for advanced readers.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book excerpt: Sohrab Ahmari was a teenager living under the Iranian ayatollahs when he decided that there is no God. Nearly two decades later, he would be received into the Roman Catholic Church. In From Fire, by Water, he recounts this unlikely passage, from the strident Marxism and atheism of a youth misspent on both sides of the Atlantic to a moral and spiritual awakening prompted by the Mass. At once a young intellectual’s finely crafted self-portrait and a life story at the intersection of the great ideas and events of our time, the book marks the debut of a compelling new Catholic voice.

Book excerpt: This collection of vividly illustrative sermons by a leading contemporary Episcopalian preacher eloquently heralds the Christian call to faith in the face of modern challenges. Widely known for their up-to-the-minute relevance to modern life, the sermons of Fleming Rutledge are always out on the edge, challenging the boundaries of contemporary thought and experience. No issue is too threatening, no event too shocking, no question too impertinent to be addressed. Following Karl Barth's dictum that sermons should be written with the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other, Rutledge weaves the changing events of the daily news together with the unchanging rhythms of the church seasons. Her book leads readers through the liturgical year, from All Saints to Pentecost, showing how the biblical story intersects with our own stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W.C. Fields reportedly quipped as he flipped through a Bible on his deathbed: "I'm looking for loopholes." Is a last minute conversion really a loophole? Is it fair to the faithful who have "toed the line" their whole lives? Far from being the easy way out, a deathbed conversion is almost always the culmination of years spent resisting God's patient, persistent call. Each of these journeys to redemption will deepen your faith and encourage you to help others find their way to him. In this book you'll read the compelling stories of thirteen people who finally found peace with the Lord in the last months, weeks, or even hours of their lives, including: Poet/playwright Oscar Wilde Nobel laureate Alexis Carrel Actors John Wayne, Patricia Neal, and Gary Cooper Gangster Dutch Shultz Entertainer Buffalo Bill And more

Do you secretly relate to Belle’s delight in the library in Beauty and the Beast? If so, you may be on your way to being a book girl. Books were always Sarah Clarkson’s delight. Raised in the company of the lively Anne of Green Gables, the brave Pevensie children of Narnia, and the wise Austen heroines, she discovered reading early on as a daily gift, a way of encountering the world in all its wonder. But what she came to realize as an adult was just how powerfully books had shaped her as a woman to live a story within that world, to be a lifelong learner, to grasp hope in struggle, and to create and act with courage. She’s convinced that books can do the same for you. Join Sarah in exploring the reading life as a gift and an adventure, one meant to enrich, broaden, and delight you in each season of your life as a woman. In Book Girl, you’ll discover: how reading can strengthen your spiritual life and deepen your faith, why a journey through classic literature might be just what you need (and where to begin), how stories form your sense of identity, how Sarah’s parents raised her to be a reader—and what you can do to cultivate a love of reading in the growing readers around you, and 20+ annotated book lists, including some old favorites and many new discoveries. Whether you’ve long considered yourself a reader or have dreams of becoming one, Book Girl will draw you into the life-giving journey of becoming a woman who reads and lives well.
