The Way Maker and the Scarlet Cord - In the Quake of Two Supernatural Collusions

Dixie Koch

Summary

Her body was weak from giving birth. Her soul was fragile, wishing desperately that she could hold her baby, but she had not even been allowed to see her baby. Under the influence of drugs, she could vaguely remember a baby crying, and then the sound of her baby being whisked away from her. Forever.

No not forever. Hopefully not forever. She must return somehow for her baby.

When thirty-year-old Jezra felt her baby move for the first time, a spark of life also entered her heart. Suddenly, she found mysterious comfort in the words spoken many years ago by her grandfather's maid. "Your mom had a change of heart, Jezra. She had been offered a considerable amount of money to have a baby for your grandfather. But as she felt the life you brought moving and kicking inside of her, the value of money lost its importance. All she wanted was you… her name was Rahab."

Jezra and her unborn baby were part of a generational blood pact. Determined not to give her baby into the hands of those commanding dark powers, she runs into a journey of horrifying uncertainty.

In this suspense packed sequel to The Miracle Maker and the Misfits, two women are searching for the love of family which has been stolen from their lives. Rahab has discovered a new blood covenant. For many years she has held on to its scarlet cord of promises, whereby she believes the Way Maker will save her and her family. But how much longer can her faith endure? Can they be saved after all?

You're the Worst Person in the...

Scarlet Hiltibidal

Are you tired of the unrelenting pressure to be the best at everything? Author and speaker Scarlet Hiltibidal was too. For Scarlet, attempting to be the best at pretty much everything—whether that be the best wife or the best sub-sandwich maker or the best Christian—was her life story. But in the midst of all her striving and reaching to hit the mark, she somehow still couldn’t grab hold of the joy and freedom and life-change that’s supposed to come with the gospel’s good news. That is, until she realized something revolutionary—instead of the best, she might actually be…the worst. The “chief of sinners.” Poor in spirit and gone astray. In her much-anticipated follow-up to Afraid of All the Things (and in her humorous and relatable style), Scarlet tells plenty of stories of her own “worstness” to help you see your own and rejoice in the reality that our goodness and badness aren’t what make God smile at us. Instead of hiding from our brokenness, this book will help us stare that broken reality straight in the face, along with a laugh or two, as we feel the weight of just how absurdly and glaringly off the mark we all are! What’s more—this book will also help us embrace our status as “sinners” and “sheep” and “worst people on earth” who have been mercifully rescued and impossibly loved by the best person who has ever lived: Jesus. And the unbelievable part? As we admit our worstness, stop trying to be perfect on our own, and simply walk with the One who really is perfect, we’ll find along the way that we are actually changing for the better! If you’re tired of hustling to be the best, take a load off with Scarlet and say the honest and laughable truth along with her: we’re the worst people in the world!

Coming Events and Present Duties

J. C. Ryle

We live in troubled and dangerous times. It has been a long time since there have been as many ideas and events in our world causing fear and anxiety as there are today. But one thing, in any event, is clear, and that is the duty of Christians to search more diligently than ever the prophetic Scriptures. Do not be like the Jews at the first advent who were blind to the hand of God and the fulfillment of His purposes in all that was going on in the world. Let us instead remember that the word of prophecy is given to be a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise (2 Peter 1:19). Let us walk in that light. Let us search what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them [the prophets] did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow (1 Peter 1:11). Let us compare prophecies fulfilled with prophecies unfulfilled and attempt to make the one illustrate the other. Let us strive, above all, to obtain clear views of the things we should be expecting, both in the church and the world, before the end comes and time will be no more.

Singing the Lord's Song in a...

John Marsh

The most devastating experience of God’s people in the Old Testament was the exile. But rather than destroying them, it resulted in them emerging from it with a fresh understanding of God and committed to new ways of worshipping him. For many churches and individual Christians, the Covid pandemic has also been a form of exile. How far have we emerged with fresh understanding of our faith, new ways of being and doing church, a reinvigorated commitment to the mission task?

 
Mission, particularly the clear proclamation of the Gospel, is the core task of the church, our response to Jesus’ Great Commission to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). Every individual Christian has their part to play in this, learning how to sing the Lord’s song (the gospel) effectively in our current context, which is not always entirely friendly. Every Christian community, every local church, needs to be able to sing the same song through the quality of their life together. Whenever new people join us, we need to offer them a positive experience: comfortable facilities, meaningful worship, relevant teaching, and, above all, a genuine, warm welcome. Without this, any message we may proclaim is likely to fall on deaf ears.

The Prayer Of Azariah - The...

Christopher Glyn

Immerse yourself in the "Prayer of Azariah," a profound and moving piece of biblical literature nestled within the Apocrypha. This text, often included as part of the Book of Daniel in the Greek Septuagint and Latin Vulgate, presents the fervent prayer of Azariah (also known as Abednego), one of the three young Hebrew men cast into a fiery furnace for their refusal to worship an idol. 
 
Experience the deep faith and unyielding devotion of Azariah, as he stands amidst the flames. His prayer, a poignant blend of confession, supplication, and praise, exemplifies unwavering trust in God even in the face of certain death. It's a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of faith under persecution. 
 
Following Azariah's heartfelt prayer, witness the "Song of the Three Holy Children" — a hymn of praise sung by Azariah, Hananiah (Shadrach), and Mishael (Meshach). This hymn, echoing through the furnace, transforms a place of execution into a sanctuary of worship, celebrating God's sovereignty and righteousness. 
 
Discover the rich tapestry of themes woven into the "Prayer of Azariah," from divine justice and mercy to the acknowledgment of past transgressions and the hope for deliverance. As one of the Apocryphal books of the Bible, it adds layers of theological depth, exploring the complexities of faith in adversity. 
 
As a cherished text in certain Christian traditions and an important work in the study of Jewish liturgical history, the "Prayer of Azariah" invites readers on an inspiring journey through the furnace of affliction. Its enduring messages of faith, resilience, and divine presence in times of trial continue to resonate, offering a profound reflection on the power of prayer and praise in the midst of suffering.
