History & Criticism

The book, Sixty-Six Puzzles About the Book of 66 came about when the author suffered a case of empty nest syndrome. Her prayer was, "What do I do next?" The thought came, "Write puzzles" and so in 2001 she began to write. The realization also came that these puzzles could be used to help others learn about the Bible. Life in this world is very busy, and sometimes people have become too busy to study the word of God. The puzzles that are contained within this first book will give many an opportunity to find out about the Bible in a relaxed setting in the comfort of their own home or when there is quiet time. The puzzles are such that beginning Bible students can learn a lot but also the mid level or graduate Bible student has to do some searching as well. All that is needed to complete the puzzles are a New King James Version of the Bible, a pencil or pen and time.

Effectiveness evidences authenticity and leaves us fresh and spicy at the place where success or failure covers or betrays inauthenticity and leaves us burnout. But authenticity derives from a clean grasp and wholehearted commitment to: . our supernatural identity in Christ . our supernatural fitness in the Holy Spirit, and . our supernatural relationships in God. Fresh and Spicy cites and describes for our emulation ways in which Moses, Caleb and Joshua; Jesus, Philip and Paul, to name but these, exemplified those foci. In addition, Fresh and Spicy cites and describes commonplace examples to show that: . success/failure-burnout is antithesis to effectiveness-freshness-spiciness, and . effectiveness-freshness-spiciness is our birthright. Therefore, at the same time, Fresh and Spicy invites us to a wholehearted recommitment to our birthright. Wilson Awasu (Ph.D., Fuller Theological Seminary) is a missiologist, researcher and missionary training consultant. He is the author of Transformational Conversion and Unmasked Conflict. He and his wife Anna live in Lakeville, Minnesota.

The difficulties of life can steal your joy and rob you of spiritual faithfulness and fervency. Bitterness is a grudge you can nurse, but it will never get better. If you have anger leading to an unforgiving spirit, Satan will pitch his evil tent in the campground of your heart, and he will light the campfire of bitterness until it consumes the sweet, soft marshmallows of your fellowship with God and man. Don't be content living a mediocre Christian life. Allow God to examine your heart for improper motives and unbiblical attitudes you might have toward Him. You can live with passion. You can have spiritual revival. You can move beyond the past. You can flourish in the midst of the daily grind. In a time when the church has become so consumer-oriented in her approach to God, treating Him as the servant rather than the Lord, In It for Nothing exposes this fallicy, restores the proper motivation for our service, and will set you on the course of spiritual revival!

In It for Nothing

Beasley, Scott

What is the origin of the universe? Inquiring readers will find compelling answers awaiting them in this book. Since the subject of the origin of the universe lies at the interface of science and religion, the author believes that we can get closer to the truth if we combine the unequivocal testimony of the Bible with the irrefutable evidences of science. This subject is elucidated in this profound, scholarly work, informed by scientific knowledge and biblical insight. The scientific perspective is explained in detail on the basis of the best ideas in cosmology. The biblical perspective is based on the interpretations of Genesis that are consistent both with other portions of Scripture and the best scientific evidence and thinking. An epilogue providing a masterful summary of the salient ideas in this book is also included. Author Emerson A. Cooper is a graduate of Oakwood College (B.A.), the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn (M.S. in Chemistry), and Michigan State University (Ph.D.). For forty-four years he has taught chemistry at a small liberal arts Christian college.
