    How do we stay faithful as we wait on God? 
     
     
     
    The time after Good Friday but before Easter Sunday is one of the most overlooked portions of the Bible. We tend to rush ahead to the empty tomb seeking to find the resurrected Lord, but our lives don't come equipped with a fast-forward button. We all face seasons of waiting where we long for a new or better future. 
     
     
     
    Peace in the Dark invites you to look again and acknowledge the reality of Holy Saturday. The example of the early disciples in those in-between hours offers a depth of wisdom about what to do when things have gone wrong. Their practices can serve us as we face our own disappointments, trials, and even traumatic experiences. There is a way to not just live but to experience peace when God seems silent. Rooted in Scripture, nature, and her personal experiences of years of trial, Jessica Herberger guides us through what was happening on that day, why it matters, and how we can approach our Holy Saturdays with hope and faithfulness.

    Redemptive Service - Loving Our...

    This book introduces readers to redemptive service, benevolence, and the pursuit of justice. Bringing together expertise in Christian theology and sociology, Lisa Stephenson and Ruthie Wienk write from the conviction that service to others--especially those who are disenfranchised and impoverished--is central to our identity and mission as Christians. 
     
    Redemptive Service articulates the biblical, theological, and sociological foundations of service and explains why it is an important part of true Christian identity. The authors use the parable of the good Samaritan to frame redemptive service as a twofold process. First, true Christian service must emerge from a genuine love of our neighbor, which can only come about when service emerges from a Christian worldview. Second, our vision must be accompanied by intentional and informed action. We must discern and respond to the cries for help that surround us through relief, development, and advocacy work. 
     
    The authors highlight why we should engage in service while providing readers with a framework to use when deciding whom to serve and how to serve well.

    "The Illuminati Mayhem & Murder" by Frank White delves into the enigmatic and often misunderstood world of the Illuminati, the secret society that has captivated imaginations and sparked controversies for centuries. This comprehensive volume combines White's two groundbreaking works, providing an unparalleled exploration of the group's far-reaching influence, intricate power structures, and alleged involvement in pivotal historical events. 
    In "Who Are The Illuminati," White critically examines the truths and myths surrounding this secretive organization. From their rumored control over global events to their purported ties with influential families like the Rockefellers and Rothschilds, the book investigates the depth of the Illuminati's influence. Are they the puppet masters of the world's elite, shaping politics, entertainment, and media? Or is their notoriety a product of misinterpretation and conspiracy theories? 
    "The Illuminati's Greatest Hits" takes a darker turn, unveiling the alleged covert operations and brutal tactics employed by the Illuminati to maintain their stronghold. From orchestrating revolutions and wars to the high-profile assassinations of Lincoln, Kennedy, and other key figures, White explores how these events fit into the larger puzzle of the New World Order. The book questions the extent of their manipulation and their relentless pursuit of global domination, shedding light on the sinister side of this enigmatic group. 
    Together, these narratives form "The Illuminati Mayhem & Murder," a book that not only uncovers the layers of secrecy surrounding the Illuminati but also challenges the reader to question the very fabric of modern history. It's an essential read for anyone intrigued by the shadowy intersection of power, conspiracy, and the clandestine forces shaping our world.

    Most of us don't need to make speeches. We need to make friends. This is the core message of Black and White: racism can be disrupted by relationships. If you will risk forging friendships with those who do not look like you, it will change the way you see the world, and that could change the world. 
     
     
     
    The coauthors, Teesha Hadra, a young African American woman, and John Hambrick, a sixty-year-old white man, bring a confident and redemptive tone to this hope because that is exactly what they've experienced.  Black and White leverages their story, surrounding it with other's stories, practical advice, and exploration of the systems of racism to motivate you to consider your own role in change. 
     
     
     
    ● Learn about the various and often subtle ways racism continues to be a part of American culture.

    ● Become equipped to take faithful, practical, next steps in obedience to God's call to join the movement against racism.
