  The Priestly Blessing in Numbers 6, "The Lord bless you," is one of the most familiar and widely used liturgical texts in Christianity. Although often recited, it is not usually a subject of in-depth study. 
   
  In this addition to the Touchstone Texts series, highly regarded Old Testament scholar Stephen Chapman provides a detailed, engagingly written exposition of the Priestly Blessing as well as a broader exploration of blessing in the Old Testament. He explores the historical and liturgical use of the Priestly Blessing in the Jewish and Christian traditions and discusses key issues related to the practice of blessing within contemporary Christianity. His interpretation of the Priestly Blessing highlights the importance of the divine name and the way the blessing offers a vision of religious faith as "name bearing." Chapman's volume will be a helpful resource for pastors and seminarians and an important reminder to all Christians of the centrality of blessing to the life of faith. 
   
  The Touchstone Texts series addresses key Bible passages, making high-quality biblical scholarship accessible to the church. The series editor is Stephen B. Chapman.

  In 3019, biological and spiritual purity equal survival. 
  As Dean of Security, Shaan believes she's walking the True Path ... but is she? She feels unworthy of the prophecy that saved her from the cryogenic Blessing she now imparts on others. Every day Shaan seeks to bury her indelible biological stains under more devoted service to God and Xianova. She and her two enormous canine lieutenants are feared and revered for hunting Impures. 
  When Shaan is offered the opportunity to beta test the new Transparency of Thought biotech upgrade, she eagerly accepts. Then, while freezing Impures, she comes mind-to-mind with a young autistic boy whose telepathic abilities push her to put everything on the line--her family, her faith, and her life--to track down the Truth. 
  Jen Porter is an award-winning educator and author who promotes faith and interdependence. She and her husband Jim live in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, with family, fish, rescue dogs, plenty of 'Dad jokes,' and never enough Star Trek. 
  Mike Domeny is an actor (321 Improv) and author (Thrown Off Script) who tells stories that make a difference. He founded Outloud Bible Project to help Christians read the Bible like it makes a difference in their lives, and The Grove: Kingdom Creativity Collective, to equip Christians to do "that thing" God put on their heart to do, even if it doesn't make sense. He lives in New Hampshire and serves alongside his wife, Kelsey.

  I don't want to kill anyone. 
  The year is 2076. Earth is ruled by a one-world government. In order to maintain unity, all citizens must deny their national, racial, and religious identities—or suffer the consequences. 
  Believing the chaos of her adventure on Mars is behind her, seventeen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna, an unassimilated Christian, faces a restricted but uneventful future. That is until she and her friend Cea are taken hostage to blackmail Cea’s wickedly genius brother into completing the infamous superweapon Red Rain. If he succeeds, the government will have the power to dissolve entire cities with acid. Desperate, the girls make a break for it. Thrust into the streets with a gun she’s afraid to shoot, Philadelphia realizes her battle with Red Rain is far from over—and this time, turning it over to the authorities is not an option.

  When We Spoke to the Dead - How...

  Ghosts spoke. Women listened. Everything changed. 
   
   
   
  In the 1840s, the Fox Sisters—and the legions of mediums they inspired—ignited the Spiritualist movement that swept through Victorian parlors and presidential campaigns alike. Contacting the dead wasn't merely a parlor trick: It was a political statement, a declaration of self that still echoes. Séances attracted suffragists and scientists, skeptics and charlatans, giving women a voice in a society that often refused to hear them. But as Spiritualism surged, it also blurred the lines between faith, fraud, feminism, and financial opportunity, drawing figures as varied as Harry Houdini, Victoria Woodhull, and even modern self-help gurus into its ever-expanding orbit. 
   
   
   
  From wartime séances to the rise of televangelists, from Victorian ghosts to goop-approved wellness rituals, When We Spoke to the Dead unearths the forgotten roots of today's obsession with manifestation, mysticism, and the power of belief. Exploring America's deep-seated hunger for the unseen—whether through politics, personal empowerment, or grief—this book traces how the supernatural, once condemned as heresy, became the ultimate commodity.

  The Doctrine of Good Works -...

  In Titus, Paul says Christ redeemed a people "zealous for good works." Despite this declaration and others like it, the doctrine of good works has fallen on hard times in contemporary Protestant theology and practice. At best, it's neglected—as in most systematic theologies and in too much church teaching. At worst, it's viewed with suspicion—as a threat to salvation by grace alone through faith alone. 
   
   
   
  In this important work addressing a significant gap in current theological literature, the authors argue that by jettisoning a doctrine of good works, the contemporary church contradicts historical Protestantism and, more importantly, biblical teaching. They combine their areas of expertise—exegesis, systematic and historical theology, and practical theology—to help listeners recover and embrace a positive doctrine of good works. They survey historical Protestant teaching to show the importance of the doctrine to our forebears, engage the scriptural testimony on the role of good works, formulate a theology of salvation and good works, and explore pastoral applications.
