  So, you think you know what happened during the Crusades. But do you really? 
  It’s a good question to ask since there are plenty of misconceptions regarding what caused the Crusades, let alone what actually took place during their duration. In this audiobook, we seek to clear up many of these questions and provide you with a concise and accurate history of the Crusades. Much of the history of the Crusades has been obscured through the years through opinionated conjecture. We attempt to set the record straight in as unbiased a portrayal as possible. 
  In this audiobook, we tell you what happened and let you decide for yourselves what it was all worth. The Crusades were a call to defend Eastern Christians and aid Christian pilgrims in the Holy Land. It was only once the massive earthquake of Christian crusaders was unleashed from the West that the Crusades morphed into something altogether different. This audiobook explores how the scope and ideology of the Crusades evolved over time, from the conquest of Jerusalem during the First Crusade to the fall of the Crusader States. 
  We also take a look at other instances in which Crusades were made, such as the famous Northern Crusades and the Reconquista of Portugal and Spain. If you would like to learn more about what the Crusades were all about, what caused them to take place, and how it all ended up, this audiobook has you covered! 
  In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:How the Crusades actually beganThe initial objectives of the crusadersHow the Crusades evolved over timeThe monastic orders involved in the CrusadesThe Kingdom of Jerusalem and its important rulersThe Northern CrusadesThe ReconquistaAnd so much more!

  • 0

  This audiobook teaches readers why infant baptism is an essential practice for the Church. Ultimately, Reformed churches baptize infants because this practice heralds God’s glorious covenant promises. This visible proclamation of God’s word is a God-given means to cultivate biblical godliness in the Church, in parenting, and in the lives of our children. Ryan M. McGraw takes us beyond the question of whether infant baptism is right and shows us what difference it actually makes.

  Bible Study For Women & Men...

  “The One” who bends the Matrix to His will, really and truly is Jesus Christ because it is written in (John ch.1):“He was in the world and the world was made by Him.” 
  Consider the quantum physics involved, and the power over matter and energy Christ possessed to simply “vanish out of their sight” in (Luke ch.24) & After His resurrection, “Then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said, ‘Peace be unto you.’” (John ch.20) & "[He] let them touch His hands and feet.". 
  [And] in the movie Pulp Fiction, Ezekiel ch.25 v.17 is mentioned. Did you know that 90% of this so-called “verse” is NOT from the Bible? The question is asked almost straight into the camera, almost to YOU, the audience, "Do you read the Bible?" to see if you'll catch the fictional verses. 
  This book is a call to action intended mainly for believers unfamiliar with the Word of God; also aimed to encourage & empower young people. 
  My purpose is to encourage YOU to study the Scriptures for yourself, for clarity & mental freedom, spiritual discernment & wisdom. 
  Scriptures may not use modern terms such as “self development”, “mental wellness” & “emotional freedom”; but that is exactly what they can be used for. 
  This book is titled: "Bible Study for Women & Men" to emphasize the point that The Word of God is addressed TO everyone. 
  The Bible was written and printed at a time when the terms "man" and "mankind" were universal terms which referred to all human beings. Please let's NOT focus on the lack of specific terms. Let us FOCUS on ALL the wisdom, the truth and the love made available to us by Christ and our Creator Father. 
  Example, the very first person the Risen Christ chose to show Himself to after His resurrection, was a woman. 
  This book will not try to convert anyone to any particular denomination. The focus will be on what is written in the Scriptures; and the teachings of Christ, the Messiah.

  The Zondervan Biblical and Theological Lectures series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, Lord Jesus Christ: Audio Lectures include high quality live-recordings of college-level lectures that cover the important points from each subject as well as relevant material from other sources. 
  In Lord Jesus Christ: Audio Lectures, scholar and author Daniel Treier takes up the study of the doctrine of Christ in a way that is biblical and historical, evangelical and ecumenical, conceptually clear and contextually relevant. 
  Lord Jesus Christ: Audio Lectures explores the doctrine of Christ by focusing upon theological interpretation of Scripture regarding Jesus's identity. Lessons trace a Christological arc from the eternal communion of the Triune God through creation, covenants, Incarnation, passion, and exaltation all the way to the consummation of redemptive history. This arc identifies Jesus as the divine Lord who assumed human flesh for our salvation. This series expounds and defends a classically Reformed Christology in relation to contemporary contexts and challenges, engaging both philosophical and global concerns. 
  The Zondervan Beyond the Basics Series offers expert teaching from the world's leading biblical scholars and theologians.

  Faith is a wonderful thing.  Whether its faith in each other or to a God, Gods, or whatever entity you believe in, it brings a familiar comfort and sustenance to heart, soul and mental well-being. 
   
  Whilst faith can be practiced anywhere religious faith is usually at a church or temple.  The stories in this volume are centered both in houses of worship and with those with a strong association to its calling. 
     
  Of course, short story authors have a determined belief in their undoubted talents to make us look at this subject from different angles.  In this volume they take us on literary journeys that are revealing and challenging yet always entertaining.
