A Historical Watershed Moment

Leroy Vincent

Beschreibung

THE WORLD WAS TURNED INSIDE OUT BY JESUS.
A key historical turning point occurred two thousand years ago. The birth of Jesus absolutely shattered history! Even now, the secular world calculates time from His birth, though some in our culture would desire to see this change. But there is no denying that no other person in recorded history has ever received such a distinction!
Since Jesus walked the globe, there have been other historical turning points, but no one has ever had the same impact on the world as His life and ministry. His gang of "roughneck" rebels turned the world on its head!
THE KINGDOM'S SIGNIFICANCE
In Matthew 10, Jesus commissions His twelve disciples, sending them out in pairs to proclaim that "the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." Our modern understanding of the phrase "at hand" is "near" or "close," yet a more realistic definition would be "a taste or a preview of what is to come."
He came the first time to announce the arrival of a Kingdom that was not of this world, as well as to prepare us for a future dimension of completeness.
In the same context, Jesus instructs His disciples to "...cure the sick, bring the dead to life, heal people who have leprosy, and force out demons," defining this sight of the "Kingdom" as a manifestation of supernatural power.
These would be the signs pointing the way to a greater Kingdom still to come, just like a billboard might offer you a glimpse of what's up ahead on the highway - a restaurant or filling station.

Bible Conspiracy

Phil G

Billions of people across the world and across time have followed the words of this ancient book. Countless numbers have died defending it. Even today, in the 21st century heated debates are fought every day over the truth which lies within. Great thinkers and intellectuals have seen something of pure wisdom and truth in it and others simply see it as an historical document, written by people from a different time and place. 
 
But there is much more to this archaic document than meets the eye. There are in fact hidden secrets. Great profound mysteries can be unravelled if we just take a look at the Bible in a different way. Understanding the truth of the Bible is the way forward to understand the vast history of mankind. The Messiahs of the globe are all locked away in there awaiting discovery. And some of these Messiahs are indeed from outer space. They are great, tall, shining beings that descended from huge ships in the sky. Yes, this is in the Bible. And the facts are that Messiahs, prophecies and more are shared with civilizations across the globe. And these special people left behind secret codes locked away in their Holy book that predict every single event in human history. How? 
 
Prepare to unlock the sacred code once and for all, but remember you may never see the world in the same way again.

Understanding and Loving Your...

Stephen Arterburn, PhD Connie Clark

Twenty-first-century how-to advice embracing and celebrating the nonbiological parent and his or her "bonus" children, from the author of the internationally bestselling Understanding Your Child series, and host of New Life Live!, the nation's number one Christian call-in counseling show. 
 
 
 
Most of the parenting books currently in circulation were written decades ago. Therefore, they do not address—nor could they address—all the issues parents face today in the era of technology and excess. Parents do not need another article that contradicts the last one they read; rather, they need insights, techniques, and strategies to tackle the pressing issues of twenty-first-century parenting. That's what the Understanding and Loving Your Child series of books will do. 
 
 
 
Understanding and Loving Your Bonus Child takes a look at a very familiar family dynamic. Not being the biological parent to your spouse’s child doesn’t mean you don’t have a voice. This book helps celebrate the role of a bonus parent in a child's life.

Across the Crying Sands

A Tale of Uncharted Adventure and Discovery Inspired by a True Story 
  
In 1888 Mary Edwards Gerritse is a witty and confident young woman who spends as much time as possible outdoors on the rugged Oregon coast where she and her husband, John, have settled. The two are a formidable pair who are working hard to prove their homesteading claim and build a family. But as Mary faces struggles of young motherhood and questions about her family of origin, she realizes that life is far from the adventure she imagined it would be. 
  
After losing the baby she's carrying, grief threatens Mary, but she finds an unconventional way to bring joy back into her life—by taking over a treacherous postal route. As Mary becomes the first female mail carrier to traverse the cliff-hugging mountain trails and remote Crying Sands Beach, with its changing tides and sudden squalls, she recaptures the spark she lost and discovers that a life without risk is no life at all. 
  
"Jane Kirkpatrick's writing evokes a powerful sense of the challenges and strengths of women who settled the West."—SANDRA DALLAS, New York Times bestselling author
