Synopsis

"Jordan River Stops" explores the intriguing question of whether the biblical account of the Jordan River stopping, as described in the Book of Joshua, could be linked to natural phenomena. The book uniquely blends Biblical Studies with Earth Sciences like seismology and hydrology, investigating if a landslide, triggered by seismic activity, could have temporarily dammed the river, allowing the Israelites to cross. This intersection of faith and science offers a fresh perspective on a well-known biblical narrative.

 
The book progresses by first examining the biblical narrative, then transitioning into an analysis of the Jordan River Valley's geological history, including its susceptibility to landslides. It explores the plausibility of the event, referencing documented cases of similar river-damming events globally and evaluating historical records of earthquakes and landslides in the region.

 
By investigating seismic activity, the book offers a plausible explanation, aligning both with the biblical timeline and geological realities. This approach of integrating textual interpretation with scientific data makes "Jordan River Stops" valuable for researchers, students, and general readers interested in the relationship between the Bible and science. Understanding the potential role of natural events in shaping historical narratives highlights the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to interpreting complex historical events.

    Merit Award, World Guild Christian Living Book
    Praying is an action that is of the essence of Christian existence. It involves our beliefs, emotions, values, hopes and fears, certainties and uncertainties, knowledge and ignorance.
    As J. I. Packer and Carolyn Nystrom explain, "Our aim is not just to clarify Christian understanding but to foster Christian living. In real praying, head, heart, and hands go together." With wisdom, humility, and sincerity the authors lead us through different moods of praying, including brooding, praising, asking, complaining, and hanging on.
    In Praying the authors offer hope for those of us who daydream when we try to listen to God and stumble when we try to speak. Yet they don't just teach us about prayer; they challenge and inspire us to do it by pointing us to a clearer realization of the reality of God and his character. Let Packer and Nystrom guide your praying to our powerful God, and let him move your praying through mere duty to delight.

    Faith - The Bedrock of Belief -...

    Faith is a concept that transcends boundaries of culture, religion, and individual belief systems. At its core, faith is a deep trust in something greater than ourselves, whether it is in a higher power, humanity, or even the unseen forces that shape our lives. It is often described as a belief in things hoped for, yet not seen, a force that drives us forward despite the uncertainties of life. 
    To define faith simply is challenging because it encompasses so much. In its most fundamental form, faith is the belief that something exists or will happen without the need for tangible proof. It allows individuals to navigate life with a sense of purpose and direction, despite not always having the visible evidence to support their convictions. Faith is not just passive belief; it is an active force that moves people to act, to endure, and to hope in the face of adversity. 
    Faith differs from belief in that it is often more deeply rooted and less contingent on immediate evidence. While belief can be held based on facts, observations, or logic, faith is typically more personal and transcendent. It requires vulnerability—the willingness to trust beyond what is seen or proven. It is a step into the unknown, a leap toward something unseen, and a commitment to something beyond the grasp of our understanding.
