  A Study of How Genesis 3 Influences the Whole Story of the Bible
  When looking around at the world, it is easy to see that all is not as it should be. This brokenness within the world and humanity finds its roots in mankind's rebellion against God. The fall, as recorded in Genesis 3, sets the stage for creation's need for redemption—ultimately found in Jesus Christ.
  In this book, pastor and professor Mitchell Chase argues that in order to understand the fall and recognize its profound impact on later Scripture and the world today, Christians must first understand Genesis 3. Chase identifies themes found in Genesis 3—temptation, shame, messianic hope, and more—and shows how they reverberate throughout the rest of the storyline of Scripture. Understanding Adam and Eve's fall is crucial to understanding the world as it currently is and the need for redemption through Jesus. 
  
  - Accessible: Clear and concise writing on one of the most vital chapters in Scripture
  - For Those Interested in Biblical Theology: Ideal for students, thoughtful lay people, and pastors looking to grow in their knowledge of inner-biblical exegesis and connections
  - Identifies Biblical Themes in Genesis 3: Including temptation, shame, and messianic hope
  - Written by Mitchell L. Chase: Professor at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and the author of Resurrection Hope and the Death of Death

  The Planets and Their Esoteric...

  A metaphysical, astrological perspective on the symbols, functions and essences of the planets of the solar system. How to use the esoteric layer of astrological symbolism when reading a natal chart for spiritual self-work. 
  Living in illusion is meaningless, but the path to enlightenment is too painful - that is the tragedy of human existence." Yet esoteric thought can only be truly understood by dedicating oneself to it with one's whole being. Quotes and dogmas will not help here. 
  Metaphysical astrology is the only science - among all exact, esoteric, and non-esoteric sciences - that offers complete, thorough and truthful knowledge about the human being and their karmic program. Esoteric astrology reveals to man the path of self-knowledge - a path whose ultimate aim is the realization of the true Self through the experience of inner light.  
  One must have the courage to step out of the comfort zone, to recognize that the mind is a vast magical power, and that it is never too late to evolve. Neither our age nor our past matters. What is essential is to know that spiritual perfection grants power over the physical world. This knowledge is a reward in itself, and it is a deep desire of the heart that drives a person to seek it - a calling from the heart that could be satisfied by nothing else. 
  I hope this book will be a guide to you on that long and fascinating journey.

  Much pro-life ministry is focused on encouraging women to say yes to life rather than terminate their pregnancies. But what happens after that decision has been made? Who will provide that mother, who likely considered abortion because she could not see how she could afford to have a child, with the long-term emotional support, education, and guidance that will help her out of poverty? 
   
   
   
  Economics and abortion are intrinsically linked, and if pro-life ministry is to make a real difference in the lives of women and families, it must expand its perspective beyond that initial yes in order to address the underlying problem of generational poverty. In Beyond Her Yes, cofounder of RENEW Life Center Marisol Maldonado Rodriguez helps you understand the full impact that poverty has on women making life decisions and then shows how a comprehensive approach to pro-life ministries can make a far greater impact. 
   
   
   
  Saving the lives of the not-yet-born is just the first step. Discover how you can be part of saving entire families from a life of hardship and hard choices.

  The Simpler Side of Buddhist...

  This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No. 2 by Kassapa Thera, The Simpler Side of Buddhist Doctrine narrated by Jim Swift. The print edition can be found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. 1. The eBook of Bodhi Leaves No. 2 can be downloaded from the BPS website.
   
  Excerpt:
   
  In the Holy Books are many sermons, long and short, full of advice to the average layman. Notable amongst these is the Sigālovāda Suttanta, known as “the Layman’s Vinaya” which details correct behaviour for the good layman. Excellent though all such sermons are, none can surpass the brief simple appeal of the words to Nakula’s parents, which advise the cultivation of four things: Saddhā, Virtue, Generosity and Wisdom.
   
  A striking thing in the Buddha-dhamma is that here we find naught of “Thou shalt” or “Thou shalt not.” When once it is realized that selfishness and self-indulgence cause all our woe, then a wise one strives for self mastery. Sīla is the mastery of speech and action. Of his own free will, the Buddhist “pledges to observe” this precept of virtue, and that. The minimum number of such precepts of virtue that the good Buddhist should observe is five: (1) I undertake to observe the precept to abstain from destroying the life of beings; (2) from taking things not given; (3) from sexual misconduct; (4) from false speech, and (5) from liquor that causes intoxication and heedlessness.
   
  
   
  The Buddhist has no impossible postulates; he tries to see, as his teacher taught, “things as they really are.” He looks at the world around him and sees that all, all is transitory there. He sees that what is transitory is bound to be sad. All that we love is passing away, and such parting from the loved is suffering.  ..."
