As a seasoned military chaplain and leadership coach, my days were full of conversations with leaders who accomplished monumental goals only to find that their purpose still eludes them. They often wonder what it was all for. An antidote to lessening this wondering among leaders is living and leading purposefully. True purpose is a complex tapestry woven from the threads of soul care, comprising spiritual, physical, emotional, and relational rhythms. By cultivating holistic soul care, leaders can establish a flourishing personal and professional life giving our lives meaning and fulfilment. Leadership from Within is holistic requiring evaluation and work in all four critical life rhythms and is essential to a well-tended soul and purposeful leadership.

Think a Bob Goff book for teens. If you work in youth ministry or are a Christian parent of a teen you’ve probably seen the gloom statistics. Teenagers in America are leaving the church in record numbers and the jury is out on if and when they will come back. Perhaps part of the reason is the version of Christianity many teens grew up with feels boring and lifeless. Certainly, the life God invites teens to is more than staying out of trouble and being good, but if there is more, what does that look like? What would a compelling life of adventure following Jesus look like for today’s Christian teen? This is the question my book attempts to answer. This is the book I want every teenager going through my youth ministry to read. Through short, engaging, chapters I attempt to paint a picture of what a life following Jesus could look like. I challenge teens to live a life that is not necessarily easy, but a life that is full of meaning and adventure. I believe youth pastors and parents will find this a valuable resource to read with their teenagers, and teens will find this engaging enough to stay with it until the end.

word count: 150000

This three-part work follows a sweeping arc through the events (both real and imagined) of the First-Century Church. Observe Passover with John and James, Pentecost with Priscilla and Aquila, and the Feast of Tabernacles with these and many other dynamic characters. There is no more dramatic and enlightening way to engage with the original heroes of the Messianic Age, and to gain insight into the role the major Jewish feasts have played in the formation of our Faith, even to this day. Each book begins with a gripping fictional story, reading between the lines of Scripture and Church History to weave a multi-dimensional tale of fear and hope, of division and reconciliation, of death and new life. Following the story, each book includes a detailed look at the featured Jewish festival, providing keen insight into the biblical basis for the appointed times, and their influence on the lives of the characters, and the lives of all those who seek a fresh revelation of God in Scripture.

How does God, who loves the people he created so much that he gave his life to save them, do something so seemingly out of character toward those who refuse his gift of salvation as to subject them to an unending life of conscious torture? Is that really what the Bible teaches? On the contrary, God forewarned Adam that the penalty of rebellion was death. When the first couple ate the forbidden fruit, they lost the hope of immortality both for themselves (“you are dust, and to dust you shall return” – Gen. 3:19) and for their offspring (“death spread to all men because all sinned” – Rom. 5:12). According to Scripture, eternal life is a gift bestowed uniquely on those who trust in God’s plan of salvation. God’s final judgment of all his disobedient, defiant creatures is consistently portrayed as an absolutely just punishment of deeds followed by terrible but merciful destruction.

In October of 2005 the body of a young woman washed ashore in a lifeboat in the Gulf of Mexico. This book comes from the journal that was found next to her in the boat. The prologue and epilogue are written in first person by the one who discovered the journal and the body. The journal describes the last nine months of Katie’s life as she won a contest and went to live on a tropical island in the Gulf of Mexico with about one hundred others. Katie’s initial hopes are to hone her skills as a writer and consider her next moves as she has recently rejected her parents’ Christian faith. During her time on the island, an ad hoc social experiment begins to develop, based on the principles of expressive individualism and celebration of moral relativity. Katie and her friend Jessica are at the center of the experiment and pushing for acceptance of each new moral compromise. However, over time, some extreme positions are adopted and Katie begins to question whether she is on the right path. Eventually, the experiment disintegrates into chaos and Katie is forced to make difficult choices about where she stands and how she will protect herself and others from imminent violence.

word count: 48750

(Working title: Hearing Our Brother’s Voice: How to Meet Jesus in the Psalms) Believers love the psalms, but often find it difficult to make Christian sense of them.  Hearing Our Brother’s Voice shows them how.  In twenty-two brief and self-contained chapters (the book is about 200 pages long), the author invites readers to receive the psalms not just as their “songbook” but as Jesus’, giving expression to the hopes and griefs of his own life.  After explaining the rationale for this approach, the book walks chapter by chapter through a wide range of experiences documented in the psalms (delight, hope, determination and desolation among them), showing readers how these psalms provide windows into the life Jesus chose freely to share with us in order to help us manage it and in the end to rescue us from what has gone wrong with it.   Three chapters near the end offer exercises aimed at increasing readers’ skill in the task promoted by the book. Prayers at the end of each chapter add an element of worship throughout.  As readers meet Jesus in the psalms under discussion, his incarnation and the love that drove it, together with the benefits of being united to him, become more vivid and life-changing.

word count: 47043

I’ve been working with men for almost fifty years. Twenty-one years as a Federal Prison chaplain. Counseling. A father to many father-less men. In “retirement” I realized that a lot of men my age and older were really struggling. Health problems. Marriage issues (or death of a wife). Changes in their sex life. Missing work and career. Money problems. And it seemed no one really cared, or knew what to say. As I tried to find books that addressed “golden age” men, I found cars of the sixties, financial planning in retirement, and dealing with ED and prostate issues. Meanwhile, men were spending what was supposed to be those “golden years” depressed, wasting time on the internet, addicted to porn, and even committing suicide. This book addresses the changes going on in your life, what you’re feeling inside, which you probably have no one to talk to about. As death gets closer, we start thinking about heaven. What do you think about God? How can you be sure you’re going to heaven. We’ll learn some lessons from the later years of men in the Bible and see what God may have for you. All the angles possible to make your senior years as fulfilling as possible.

title: Antisemitism: American and Otherwise

word count: 30000

Events have overtaken me! I began a manuscript, expecting antisemitism to increase in America—and it has exploded before I could predict it!      Understanding Antisemitism: American and Otherwise springs from the view that antisemitism is Satanically sponsored. Existing explanations miss its source by only crediting human causes, such as jealousy of Jewish disproportionate success. Satanic hostility against the Jewish people comes from their chosenness as God’s initial and eventually returning band of missionaries to the nations. Knowing the day will come when they awaken to the Messiah and their call, Satan tries to kill ever last one of them to inhibit God’s redemption plan. The Jewish people have yet to do their job. Though the early missionaries were Jewish, the Jerusalem Church did not reach beyond its ethnic roots. In fact, it seems God had to move his missionary base to Antioch because of their provincialism. Thus, Satan enlists willing human coconspirators in his effort to prevent fulfillment of the Jewish missionary call. With increasing numbers of Jewish believers, little wonder antisemitism is growing.

title: The Red Goblin Strikes Again

category: fiction • subcategory: youngadult • date submitted: 7.4.2024 • author id: LaDaTh15724

word count: 44550

As a librarian, I have seen the teen market succumb to lots of  violence and sexually descriptive novels. Most recently, there is a glut of "paranormal novels" whose protagonists are vampires, witches and werewolves.  Such things are fine in small doses, but I believe that there is a market for more positive and uplifting teen/upper elementary novels, novels that don't make one want to go out and slit one's wrists after closing the cover. (I've known that to happen.) The Red Goblin Strikes Again describes a boy who finds his solace in more normal pursuits, who lives in a rural area of the late 1970s and is closer to nature than most urban teens.  He has parents who care for him, even if it isn't normally expressed and who has friendships not only with his peers but with neighbors who are adults and the elderly.  He is a close friend, for example, with his neighbor, Ruby Arnold, Corey's grandmother.  She is  lonely and reads too many detective novels and like Don Quixote with his novels of chivalry accepts them as the literal truth. She decides that the best way to serve her tiny community and surrounding areas is to become a detective herself and search out enemies of her own fair village.   David becomes her Sancho Panza and accompanies her in her occasional nocturnal sorties of neighbors' homes for murder victims, terrorists, communist spies, and other miscreants who populate her novels The novel is written from a Christian worldview.  But as a boy and teen, I didn't like the didactic novels found in the church library, where everyone "gets saved" at the end.  I prefer to write in a humorous and at times silly vein.  Scenes take place in church from time to time, not to deliver sermons, rather to flesh out the personalities of some of the characters, and yes, to sow that normal people can be people of faith, in spite of their failings. I choose to write in a Christian manner because my reception from secular publishers has not been good, and one of the agents I contacted wanted me to spice up my work with sexual encounters between the characters.  Yes, sex happens in the imaginary village of Lindenwald, as everywhere, but I  chose not to go into the bedrooms of my characters.  And David is experiencing these feelings as teens do, but rather than get down to the "nitty-gritty," his glasses fog up when he has such feelings. I submitted this novel to you before, you liked it, and you made several suggestions, which I've followed.  For instance, it is about 1/4 longer than the previous submission.  I've been careful to note WHO is speaking rather than assuming that it is understood.  I've better described my characters...brown eyes or blue, thin or heavy, hair color, etc.   And finally I decided that it fits more in the past rather than in 2024 and removed reference to the Internet and other things that didn't exist in the 70s.

word count: 615

We, like many parents, include a prayer as part of our bedtime routine with our toddler, yet there aren’t any prayer books that target young boys with exciting topics like trucks. However, many secular bedtime books do such as Sheri Rinker’s bestselling Good Night, Good Night Construction Site. Ladder Learns to Pray and Other Emergency Vehicle Prayers is a series of 6 board books targeted at young boys. Each book is one prayer, 6 spreads in length, which focuses on an emergency worker and its corresponding emergency vehicle. The relationship between the emergency worker and its vehicle mimics a father (the worker) putting his son (the vehicle) to sleep at night and teaching him to pray. There is also a prayer focus for each book, e.g., Ladder Learns to Pray focuses on bravery and sacrifice and Cruiser Learns to Pray focuses on wisdom, justice, and grace. Because children learn by repetition, the first, second and last stanza of each book is the same; this also gives the child a structure to create his own prayers. Additionally, each book has “What does this mean to me?” call-outs to help parents discuss big concepts with their child at an age-appropriate level.

For millennia, Doug Einfeld’s Jewish ancestral family endured unspeakable adversity and the continual threat of annihilation.  As he unearths the harrowing story of their survival, he discovers the ever-present hidden hand of ancient Israel’s God. Their story begins in antiquity during the biblical era of Abraham and ends in seventeenth-century Germany.  It provides a behind-the-scenes view of everyday Jewish life during biblical Old Testament, Intertestamental, and New Testament times.  It retraces their near-annihilation by the Roman empire and their eventual migratory journey from Palestine to Italy -- and then from Italy to Germany.  It recounts their subjection to brutal anti-Jewish terrorism during the Middle Ages.  And it concludes with their arrival in remote northern Germany as expelled refugees fleeing a pogrom elsewhere in that country. Perils of all sorts were scattered along their path: deadly famines; ravaging socio-economic conditions; subjugation by foreign powers; Jewish civil war and religious strife; tyranny, bigotry, terrorism, and warfare.   Miraculously, they survived.  Undeterred by fear and tragedy, they clung to faith and hope, pursuing opportunity and freedom in defiance of impoverishing and repressive forces. Readers will: Be captivated by the riveting drama of the Jewish peoples’ journey through history. Tour behind the scenes of everyday life during biblical times and gain a refreshing new perspective on what it was like. Discover enriching new insights regarding the Jewish foundations of Christianity, the person and mission of Jesus, the beginnings of the Jewish Jesus movement, the formation of the New Testament Gospels, how and why Christianity and Judaism split and went their separate ways, and more. Witness an often-hidden disturbing reality about medieval life in Europe -- a persistent, rampant, genocidal anti-Semitism, and be persuaded to remain vigilant against its susceptibility to historical recurrence. Be inspired by the enduring faithfulness of the God of the Bible, and be encouraged to keep trusting him in the face of calamity.

The Protestant reformers of the sixteenth century, such as Martin Luther, John Calvin, Philip Melanchthon, as well as many others, championed the idea that every individual should have direct access to the Scriptures, encouraging literacy and a personal engagement with knowledge. This book is an exploration of the multifaceted ways in which the reformers' ideas and principles shaped educational systems--both general or pubic and religious or church--in Europe and beyond. From the establishment of new schools and the promotion of vernacular languages to the emphasis on critical thinking and individual interpretation, the reverberations of the Reformation in the realm of education were profound and enduring.

‘The Big Change’ is a story of two caterpillar best friends. It’s the day of the bug village running race, and both caterpillars are ready to go! That’s until one of the caterpillars starts to change, and the two best friends start on a journey to understand what is happening. Death is the big change we all must face. ‘The Big Change’ provides a Christian metaphor for families to sensitively discuss death. It is aimed at preschool-Kindergarten (2-5 years) aged children, who are facing death themselves, or they may know someone facing it.   In 2022, more than 3.2 million persons died in the United States. Talking about death, or the big change, is difficult. The way people approach this topic will be different for many reasons, including age, where we come from, whether we are sick, and what support we have around us. Therefore, this book deliberately uses pictures and simple language as this format may be understood by people from a range of backgrounds and situations. The death-related themes that may come up through this story include shock, sadness, acceptance in faith, companionship, grief, and the Christian hope of new life in heaven.

This 365–day Devotional is designed especially for people on the go. They are awakening to the importance of planting in their minds and hearts, first thing every day, portions of God’s Word and its timely wisdom. They comprehend the importance of starting the day with Scripture and a brief thought about that passage. But they are also rushed at the beginning of the day. Consequently, they are looking for a quick spiritual breakfast, and are open to a more in–depth interaction with the Lord later in the day. Each brief daily devotional is limited to 75 words, making it suitable for a busy morning that also opens a window for God to shine His blessings into their day. The paragraph can also prepare for a closer, more focused examination of the passage or another study that satisfies their soul’s need for a rich spiritual feast. The goal of SPIRITUAL BREAKFAST On The RUN is to invite busy people into a closer, more intimate relationship with God. It is designed to make Scripture a daily part (dare I say, a ‘habit’?) of their lives.

author: Stefano R

category: fiction • subcategory: biblical • date submitted: 4.22.2024 • author id: RiStYe7924

word count: 125000

YESHUA is the tetralogy dedicated to the story of Jesus. Written after a long process of exegetical, historical and spiritual study, the tetralogy recounts the life of Jesus starting from his birth, going through the two and a half years shared with his disciples, and ending with his death: from Bethlehem to Jerusalem, from the manger to the tomb, from the revelation made to Miriam to the one addressed to each of us. Through the language of the historical novel, the author retraces step by step the story of Jesus; he does so by reserving a particular sensitivity towards the human and psychological aspects of the protagonists, leading the reader to empathize with the same doubts and weaknesses of the disciples, to identify with their expectations and their falls, to marvel at the bending of the normal natural order, to kneel, with amazement and confusion in their eyes, before the mystery of Heaven made earth. These four novels will take the reader from the dusty streets of Galilee to the golden rooms of Jerusalem, from the nets cast in the lake of Tiberias to the blood spilled on the temple altar; they will lead the reader to empathize with the same doubts and weaknesses of the disciples, to empathize with their expectations and their downfalls, to marvel at the bending of the normal natural order, to kneel, with amazement and confusion in their eyes, before the mystery of heaven made earth.

word count: 69000

Western civilization is decadent and in decline and Western man is in an existential crisis. While the Enlightenment began with an explosion of energy fortifying the pillars of natural sciences, philosophy, and spirituality, increasingly the West has tried to precariously balance an enormous and complex society on but a single pillar. As science gained preeminence in society, materialism soon followed, creating an anemic worldview and existence devoid of moral virtue and meaning. In our pursuit of shallow technological achievement, the spiritual was sacrificed for the superficial, but man longs for something far deeper. Suffocating in the spiritual vacuum of his own making, modern man has grasped at surrogates, but there is no substitute for breath. As the West continues toward collapse, we may want to consider the possibility that to pull back from the brink, we’ll have to return to where we deviated and embrace ancient biblical wisdom, historical models, and spiritual practices which have stood the test of time. If we do, we may find that what was lost actually enhances what was preserved. For spirituality and rationality are not mutually exclusive, but two halves of the whole.

title: The Man Who Had No Feet Mephibosheth - A story of hope and courage

author: John C

category: fiction • subcategory: biblical • date submitted: 4.9.2024 • author id: CoJoTh6824

word count: 94000

Mephibosheth lived around the beginning of the 10th Century BC. His father was Jonathan, a great friend of the future King David and the grandson of King Saul. When his grandfather and father died in battle, the shock was so great that the little boy of five years old was dropped by his caregiver rendering him crippled in both feet. His family fled in fear to a remote village called Lo Debar. Eventually, King David remembered his covenant with Jonathan and restored Mephibosheth to Jerusalem, where he lived in the palace. Very little is known of Mephibosheth from Biblical history. We know that he lived during the rise of the new city of Jerusalem, lived in the palace of David, and undoubtedly witnessed the building of Solomon’s Temple. He would have known of David’s adultery with Bathsheba, his songs and psalms, and the challenges to his power from his son Absalom and others. How did this man, falling from prince to pauper, from able-bodied to a cripple, then restored to the king’s palace, navigate such a turbulent journey? This is the imagined story of Mephibosheth’s life and times. A life overcoming disappointment with courage, hope, and faith.
