Ephesians is one of the most unique letters in the New Testament. Most of the epistles are written to a specific church to address a particular issue. Ephesians, however, was written with the express purpose of being passed around from church to church. Within the pages of Ephesians you will discover over the course of this seven-week study the power that is available to a unified church, the victory we already have over opposing forces, practical instructions for a Christian home, and Paul's grand vision for the church. Written by Paul toward the end of his life, Paul's heart for the church will strengthen your walk and sharpen your faith.A faithful reading of God's Word leads to a faithful response from God's people. The Shaped by Scripture series teaches a simple, engaging method of studying the Bible that will lead to honest interpretation and a changed relationship with God.

Dive into the first 7 chapters of this iconic letter from the apostle Paul to the church in Rome in order to engage with Paul's thoughts on the problem of humanity, God's response to the problem, and how the Christian life is to be lived.

Den and his companions are thrust into the middle of a war. Maliki's evil horde is ready to attack the vastly outnumbered forces of Dunn Moor Keep, and that isn't everything. They have discovered an artifact, that Den is very familiar with, and are willing to employ the damaged weapon at any cost. This is the second book in the War of the Stone. The third book is called Demons. But if you have not done so yet, please, read the first book Lich. It is not only free but it introduces the characters, as well as my world.

Parasite has also spent many days on Amazon's best sellers chart for free horror books. You need to read this zombie apocalypse novel because it explains the science involved in the dead coming to life. As one reviewer said of Parasite; "Such good story telling. Zombielicious. I am remembering biology class as they explain why people are turning into zombies and clues to stop the infection. Adventure, politicians, lawyers, and scientist * oh my *... Very good book." Zombies are rising in the sleepy town of Slippery Rock and it is up to Henry Cooper to figure out why. But first, he needs to save his wife, Melissa.

You need to read this zombie apocalypse series because it explains the science involved in the dead coming to life.This is the continuing story of an unlikely group of survivors in the Zombie Apocalypse. Their story follows their attempt to find the person responsible for the disaster and to find a way to liberate the world of the parasitic contagion. Sorry guys, but there are no fire trucks in this one. This is the second book in, "True Story of the Zombie Apocalypse" series. Although you could certainly read this as a stand-alone novel it would be much better if you read "Parasite" first. Please consider doing this. I refer back to the first book often. The book, "Saving Jebediah" is not a necessary read for this series. I wrote it as fan fiction for the wonderful author Mark Tufo. I do tie it into the first and third book but it isn't necessary for the series.The third book in the series is "Creator; The True Story of the Zombie Apocalypse," and the 4th and the final book is called "Predator." Check for updates about his new projects on Doug's Facebook page.

This book takes the reader through 12 common objections to Christianity and offers compelling answers to these objections in a readable, straightforward style. You are invited to enter this world of ideas, so you can understand and answer these objections when you encounter them.

A lich is an undead magic user who through the use of various spells and components, transforms itself into an undead creature. This gives it a semblance of immortality. These creatures are very powerful and evil. This book will introduce you to one such being. Baron Marasmus Ebendoom and his twisted goblin Skum are building an army of undead. The two plan to harvest the peaceful villagers from the hamlet of Springdale to fatten up their horde. Sadly, Springdale's local wizard is away. The only one left to stop this horrifying menace is an inexperienced, young wizard named Den. He and a group of adventurers will battle undead and monsters alike, as they gather the magic items they will need to defeat their foe. Author Cassidy Raine Wolters said of this book: "If you like Dungeons and Dragons, video games, or other role playing sword and sorcery adventures, you'll love this book. It's got everything dwarves, goblins, and even the occasional elf."

We know that Paul from Tarsus wrote roughly one-third of the New Testament, yet he is a figure still somewhat obscured to the modern reader. Who was he and what motivated this early shaper of the Christian faith? We can read what Paul wrote but we don't often consider why he wrote the words he did or think about what was happening around him when he penned these early letters. As a result, we often think about only half of the larger, ancient conversation. This book seeks to bring the other half of the conversation into sharp focus, and to do it in a way that is readily accessible to any reader. Using Paul's own words and an understanding of the ancient world, this book will take you on a journey walking with Paul through ancient cities and helping us to see his motivations and feel his struggles. From his early life in Tarsus to his last days after returning to Rome, the reader will see the ancient world through Paul's eyes. At the end of this book, you will know Paul better and will have more understanding of his unique contributions to the faith.
