How did Paul receive such an incredible revelation?  How was this legalistic Jewish Pharisee who persecuted the early church transformed into the man who has this profound revelation?Who was the man behind the words?  What was the back story? Paul’s story unfolds in the pages of the New Testament.  His story is pieced together from the account written by Luke in the Acts of the Apostles along with some pieces of biographical information scattered through the thirteen letters written by Paul himself.  This book also explores Paul's revelation and teaching because they are relevant for the Church today.  Paul saw things with the eyes of his heart that very few have seen, and he still has much to teach us. James Jordan says of this book, “In this very easy to read, informative and entertaining book by my friend, brother and fellow servant of the Body of Christ, Trevor Galpin, you will be introduced to Paul in a deeper and more full way than I have ever known to be in print.

  Carla Valentine works with the dead. After studying forensics, she assisted pathologists with post-mortems for years before becoming the curator of the world's most famous pathology museum. When it comes to death, she truly is an expert, and in this book she shares that expertise.Using the most common post-mortem process as the backbone of the narrative, The Chick and the Dead takes the listener through the process of an autopsy while also describing the history and changing cultures of our relationship with the dead. The book is full of vivid insight into what happens to our bodies in the end. Each chapter considers an aspect of an autopsy alongside an aspect of Carla's own life and work and touches on some of the more controversial aspects of our feelings towards death, including the relationship between sex and death and our attitudes toward human tissue collection.Starting with the first cut, we move from external examination into the body itself, discovering more about the heart, stomach, and brain, and into dismembered and reconstructed bodies, at each stage taking a colorful detour into the question of what these things can teach us about the living.
