  The Fractured Kingdom - Uniting...

  Modern Christianity is in the midst of a veritable schism along the fault lines of society's culture wars. Only if we understand the origins of this split can we find our way to unity. Though few may realize it today, Jesus's ministry unfolded in a crisis very similar to the one society is now battling. In fact, were it not for the truly catastrophic conditions in early first-century Galilee, his reimagining of the three quintessential virtues of the Torah—social justice; compassion toward one another; and an abiding love of God—would have likely failed to attract a wide following. 
   
   
   
  Brilliantly tracing Jesus's vision for the "Kingdom of God" from its origin up through modern times, Dr. Isbouts leads us to a possible antidote for the fiercely partisan moment in which we find ourselves: the Our Father. Then taking listeners on a historically exhilarating tour of the Lord's Prayer, The Fractured Kingdom shows us why the only doctrine Christians agree on might be our last hope for forging a more equal, compassionate, and loving society. What results is an undeniably essential work that addresses some of the most pressing issues now confronting communities of faith around the world.

  One solid lead. 
   
   
   
  One final mission—if they can make it out alive. 
   
   
   
  Deputy U. S. Marshal Tucker Shaw has spent months hunting Jace Krueger, head of a criminal empire with a sprawling human trafficking network. Tucker and his team have come close to bringing the network down, but to finish the job, they need someone with an inside connection. 
   
   
   
  That someone is Riley Bishop—the woman Tucker loves and the one person he's determined to protect at all costs. She's his best shot at getting close to Krueger, but putting her back in the man's sights is a risk Tucker isn't sure he's willing to take. 
   
   
   
  As Riley steps into the darkness she thought she'd escaped, the lines between hunter and hunted begin to blur. 
   
   
   
  With danger closing in, Tucker and Riley must outmaneuver a man who won't go down without a fight. Because in this game, exposing the truth might not be enough to save them—it could instead cost them their very lives. 
   
   
   
  The Truth We Seek is the fourth and final book in a fast-paced psychological thriller series that starts with The Lies We Believe.

  “What Changed You?” 
  This is the question that helped me realise the impact that a spiritual father had on my life. In this book, I share my story of coming into spiritual sonship, and how formative my relationship with my spiritual father has been in guiding me into a deep and vibrant relationship with God. Along the way, I have learned many valuable lessons and principles, which were pivotal to my spiritual growth and the development of my character. 
  While many may desire a spiritual father/mother figure in their lives, the question remains whether they carry the heart attitudes to recognise and receive them. This is the crux of this book, and it is my joy to share what God has taught me along the way in the hope that you, too, will embrace the heart of spiritual sonship/daughterhood and experience the blessing and transformative impact it can have in your own life. 
  Comment from Pastor Norm Willis – Author of The Ancient Path: 
  “Fathers formulate truth; sons demonstrate truth … Michael has gone a long way in demonstrating the truth of generational succession. Read this book and you will be both informed and inspired. Apply this book and the generations to come will thank you.”

  What Louis Brandeis Knows - A...

  Before Ruth Bader Ginsburg, there was Louis D. Brandeis: a lawyer/activist turned Supreme Court Justice who drew on common sense and Jewish values to make a difference.  
    
  This nonfiction book for young readers ages 7–10 brings to life a man full of wit and common sense, a trailblazer to inspire Jewish and non-Jewish readers alike. 
    
  Louis Brandeis knows it’s up to him to change the world. He has seen how some people are treated poorly because of their race or their religion or because they are poor. If I were a lawyer like Uncle Dembitz, he thinks, I could fight for those who need extra help. Guided by his uncle’s example, his father’s practical wisdom, and Jewish values of equality and justice, Brandeis gets to work as a lawyer, making sure everyone has a chance. Louis knows it’s important to fight for worker’s rights and women’s rights. Louis knows (before most people!) that everyone has the right to privacy. And Louis knows it’s important to support arguments with facts. 
    
  What Louis doesn’t know is that he’ll become the first Jewish Supreme Court Justice in 1916, and his fight for justice will only continue. 
    
  "What the first Jewish U.S. Supreme Court justice knew could fill a book … A solid introduction to an honorable man, known for his fair-minded rulings."—Kirkus Reviews

  The Landscapes of Science and...

  The relationship between science and religion has long been a heated debate and is becoming an ever more popular topic. The scientific capacity to manipulate and change humans and their environment through genetic engineering, life extension, and AI is going to take a huge leap forward in the twenty-first century, provoking endless debates around humans "playing God." 
   
   
   
  But what do we mean by this? Asking this question is surprisingly hard work. Attempts to "essentialize" science, let alone religion, quickly run into trouble. Where are the boundaries? Whose definition of science is definitive? Which concept of religious is the authoritative one? 
   
   
   
  Ultimately, neither "science" nor "religion" can be pinned down to one single meaning or definition. Rather, they encompass a family of definitions that relate to one another in a complex web of shifting ways. Drawing on extensive research with over a hundred leading thinkers in the UK—including Martin Rees, Brian Cox, Susan Greenfield, A. C. Grayling, Ray Tallis, Linda Woodhead, Steve Bruce, Adam Rutherford, Robin Dunbar, Francesca Stavrakopoulou, and Iain McGilchrist—The Landscapes of Science and Religion takes the much-needed step of asking what science and religion actually are, before turning to the familiar question of how they relate to one another.
