Sinossi

"Earth Age Debate" tackles the complex and often contentious discussion surrounding the age of the Earth, a topic at the intersection of Biblical Studies and Earth Sciences. It navigates the contrasting viewpoints arising from literal interpretations of the biblical timeline and the scientific data from geological science, particularly radiometric dating. Readers may find intriguing the fact that radiometric dating relies on the predictable decay of radioactive isotopes to estimate the age of rocks and minerals. The book also explores the range of biblical interpretations, from young-Earth creationism to old-Earth models, all seeking to reconcile faith and science.

 
The book begins by outlining the fundamental principles of radiometric dating and the range of views on the biblical timeline. It progresses by examining various dating methods, analyzing their assumptions and limitations, and then interpreting geological formations and events like the Grand Canyon and the fossil record through different lenses. This approach offers readers a balanced perspective, encouraging them to form their own informed conclusions on the Earth age debate by understanding both scientific and theological viewpoints.

 
Ultimately, understanding this debate has implications for science education, environmental stewardship, and interfaith dialogue.

The Fulfillment Framework -...

Mark John

The Fulfillment Framework is a powerful three-part seminar that reshapes how we read, understand, and interpret the Bible—through the prophetic lens of Christ-centered fulfillment. Rather than treating Scripture as a collection of disconnected stories, this course reveals the infrastructure beneath the text: a unified message built on prophecy, pattern, and purpose. 
Mark John takes listeners on a journey through the Old and New Testaments, showing how every covenant, command, and shadow ultimately points to one central figure—Christ. This interpretive approach, grounded in biblical context and covenantal continuity, highlights not just what the Bible says, but how to rightly discern what it means. 
In this seminar, you’ll learn: 
* How prophecy and fulfillment form the backbone of biblical revelation 
* Why Jesus is not just the subject of the New Testament, but the key to unlocking the Old 
* Essential rules of interpretation (hermeneutics) that honor historical context and divine intent 
* How themes, types, and symbols unfold across Scripture with consistent clarity 
* A practical framework for reading the Bible as one unified story—from Genesis to Revelation 
Whether you're a Bible teacher, a curious believer, or someone seeking a deeper, Christ-centered reading of Scripture, The Fulfillment Framework will equip you with the tools to see the Bible in a fresh way.

Bear Witness - The Pursuit of...

Ross Halperin

As young men, Kurt Ver Beek, an American sociologist, and Carlos Hernández, a Honduran schoolteacher, devoted their lives to helping the poor. But it wasn't until they moved to an extraordinarily dangerous neighborhood in Honduras that they came to a radical conclusion: The charity world was combating poverty incorrectly. 
 
 
 
In gripping prose, journalist Ross Halperin chronicles how these two best friends became quasi vigilantes and charged into a series of life-and-death battles: first with the gang that terrorized their community, then with a notorious tycoon who commanded about a thousand-armed men, and finally with a police force whose corruption and brutality defied credulity. Their efforts made some of the most violent neighborhoods on earth safer and arguably improved the functioning of a national government, but in the process of pulling that off, they compromised their principles, precipitated collateral damage, and acquired their share of outraged critics. 
 
 
 
A remarkable and dangerous feat of reportage, Bear Witness is a thrilling account of an unorthodox mission to establish justice in a place thought to be beyond the reach of the law.
