Synopsis

The World English Bible (WEB): Ecclesiastes presents a fresh and accessible translation of one of the most enigmatic books of the Bible. This rendition retains the poetic essence and philosophical depth of the original Hebrew text, offering readers an opportunity to engage with the profound themes of wisdom, impermanence, and the quest for meaning in life. The WEB strives for clarity while highlighting the literary beauty of Ecclesiastes through its rhythmic prose and evocative imagery, making it suitable not only for academic study but also for personal reflection and spiritual contemplation. This translation aligns with contemporary biblical scholarship while remaining faithful to traditional interpretations, inviting both seasoned scholars and modern readers to delve into its teachings. The decision to produce the World English Bible can be traced back to the collaborative efforts of various scholarly groups yearning for a public-domain translation that reflects modern English usage. Their mission was to create a version that maintained fidelity to the original texts while being comprehensible and relatable to current audiences. This endeavor is particularly resonant in Ecclesiastes, a work that documents the struggles of an existential seeker, making it relevant across eras as humanity grapples with its own search for significance. Readers interested in philosophy, theology, or literature will find a rich resource in this translation of Ecclesiastes. It invites contemplation and dialogue about the human experience, encouraging connections between ancient wisdom and contemporary life. This edition can serve as an insightful addition to anyone's library, offering both a profound spiritual inquiry and a literary treasure.

Earning the Mountain Man's Trust

Misty M. Beller

In the wild mountains of the Montana Territory, the Coulter ranch is a place of family, second chances…and a hidden fortune. Naomi Wyatt has finally given up on the man who once promised to love her for the rest of his life—then disappeared after a business trip, never responding to her letters. She’s now alone with a beautiful baby to provide for, a daughter whose red hair reminds her daily of the man she gave her heart to. She has to move on, though, and she did, going west with her sister. When Jonah Coulter asks for her hand in marriage, she knows she would be hard-pressed to find a better father for her sweet child. He’s a Coulter, after all, and he’s proven to be a good friend during her darkest hours. Eric LaGrange thought he’d lost Naomi forever. But when he finally gets word that she’s in the Montana Territory, he drops everything to go after her…and their daughter? How could Naomi have kept their beautiful child from him? And how could she move on so quickly that she’s already engaged to another man? He loves Naomi so much that he’ll accept whatever choice is best for her, but is that him…or this settled rancher who clearly cares for them? No matter what, he’s determined to know his daughter and become the father he always wanted to be. With Eric’s sudden appearance, Naomi’s heart is shredded once again. She barely has time to catch her breath before a new threat appears on the horizon. This time she has far more at stake than her heart, and only a Divine hand can turn this disaster for their good. From a USA Today bestselling author comes a mountain family saga filled with a second chance romance, love triangle, hidden treasure, and faith that heals wounded hearts.

Pluriform Love - An Open and...

Thomas Jay Oord

"A masterpiece from the preeminent theologian of love!" 
A strong case can be made that love is the core of Christian faith. And yet Christians often fail to give love center stage in biblical studies and theology. And most fail to explain what they mean by love. 
Why is this? 
Thomas Jay Oord explores this question and offers ground-breaking answers. Oord addresses leading Christian thinkers today and of yesteryear. He explains biblical forms of love, such as agape, philia, hesed, and ahavah. We should understand love’s meaning as uniform, he says, but its expressions are pluriform. 
Widely regarded as the world's foremost theologian of love, Thomas Jay Oord tackles our biggest puzzles about the nature and meaning of love, divine and creaturely. His proposals are novel. They align with love described in scripture and expressed in everyday experience. Oord also provides radical and yet persuasive answers to questions about evil, hell, the Big Bang, divine violence, divine abandonment, and more. 
Pluriform Love changes the landscape of Christian love studies.
