Some children are visual learners. To really make the Bible come to life for them, they will need pictures and descriptive details. Seeing David before a giant may be hard to imagine, but having it in a picture form puts the story into perspective for them. A book that makes the Bible understandable would help children to have an interest in these ancient stories.

Nehemiah is a fascinating book about an incredibly devoted man and about a nation finally on the upswing. Leading up to Nehemiah, the Israelites have been through one disaster after another, more or less being scattered across the lands. Nehemiah’s heart was broken for his people and their fall...

In this book we have seen a number of crucial matters. First, we need to spend time in the Word every day, for the word in the Bible embodies God, Christ, the Spirit, and life.

This book is unique. There is no other tribute like it. The church is the people. The people who are true Christians are listed in Gods Book in heaven.

The Bible is Ancient Truth, but must be read in its own ancient context to be fully understood. Even the people among whom Jesus lived no longer understood their own Hebrew heritage because the leadership had embraced Western intellectual assumptions which were then foreign to Scripture. Where we...

The gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are filled with well-known accounts of the miracles Christ performed. Christians love to reflect on Christ’s healing of the Gadarene demoniac, His raising to life Jairus’s daughter, and His bountifully providing food for five thousand hungry listeners. But author...

IF YOU'RE SERIOUS ABOUT PRAYER AND COMMUNING WITH GOD, YOU'LL WANT THIS BOOK! "And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples." ~Luke 11:1 How Can...

All my nonfiction books are exercises in logic. For instance, you might start with the premise that Christianity is true, or more specifically that scriptures such as 1 Timothy 3. 16, Colossians 2. 8-10 and John 1. 1-14 are true. These tell us Jesus is God. So, if Jesus is God, if John 1. 1-14 is...

A massive survey of New Testament scholarship--its history, methodology, and findings--from a Catholic standpoint. Fr. Collins (Catholic U. of Louvain) has a masterful grasp of his subject; and this book is a model of clarity, organization, and fair-mindedness.
