The Opinionated Spectator: Born to be Muslim by Pat Wary (3 Reviews)    Price verified 26 minutes ago

The Islamic way of life is not confined to only religious practices, which makes its scope knitted into all disciplines of contemporary academia. The content of this moral exhortation is an audacious attempt to reunite all the secular fragments of our knowledge back to their divine roots. The goal is to bring the focus back to Revelation and share certain truths that may continue to benefit others. What is the origin of today's Islamophobia? Where is the mainstream Muslim voice in the barrage of misinformation with the extremes of both sides dominating the discourse? This book aims to fill that void through a systematic dive into world history. It is a critical investigation for our time to help navigate a conflicted world of science, philosophy, and religion. The answers to many current issues are buried in the depths of a rich scholastic tradition, which are summarized concisely. Many myths are debunked, categories deconstructed, and then reconnected to demonstrate the Islamic way of life. Thousands of years of human achievements in philosophy, science, and theology are churned through a Muslim perspective to address contemporary concerns. It is a book about everything an author is advised not to write. It is dense and difficult but a must-read for all curious souls!

The path to power is paved in blood... Everyone said Valine's mother was vain and a terrible queen. She was neglectful of her kingdom, which held the door open for her tributary king, Vukan Wulfric, to overthrow her. Valine escaped with her life and a desire to regain all that was taken from her. But the burden of being the inept queen's daughter, and the will to not repeat her mother's mistakes, weigh heavy on her.

Will she be able to not only save her kingdom but also her heart? It takes great strength to start a rebellion and even more strength to resist the dark path of vengeance. Filled with hope and despair, faith and doubt, Throne of Anguish is perfect for fans of The Girl of Fire and Thorns and Crown of Chains where faith meets fantasy in this young adult debut.

Considering Miracles: Lest thou forget by Joseph Dulmage (2 Reviews)    Price verified 9 minutes ago

Some miracles announce themselves like Jesus healing a blind man or raising the dead; while other miracles make less noise. Consider Jesus inexplicably disappearing in the midst of an angry crowd which seeks to kill him. Or Jesus knowing the exact number of years a person suffers with a disease. Or Jesus reading his accusers' minds and answering their thoughts. Scripture beckons careful examination. Bible students may read a miracle too fast. Rather like driving a familiar highway and passing an exit, never taken because we never knew it led to a place worth going.

Bible Stories about the Heroes of the Faith by James Thomas Lee Jr (3 Reviews)    Price verified 9 minutes ago

Many but not all of the heroes of the Faith are named in the book of Hebrews, chapter eleven. Sixteen saints were specifically named in the first thirty-two verses of that chapter. But many others were implied indirectly in the last eight verses of that chapter. Hebrews 11:32-40 says, "And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell... of the prophets: Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; (Of whom the world was not worthy) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect." Therefore, chapter one of this text will identify how those people had become heroes of the Faith and how anyone can be a hero of the Faith. After that two stories will be shared about Abel. One story will be shared about Enoch. Six stories will be shared about Noah. Ten stories will be shared about Abraham. One story each will be shared about Sarah, Isaac, and Jacob. Five stories will be shared about Moses. One story each will be shared about Joshua and Rahab. Two stories will be shared about Gideon. One story will be shared about Barak. Two stories will be shared about Samson. One story each will be shared about Jephthah and Samuel. Four ...

Lessons Learned from the Godly Kings of Israel by James Thomas Lee Jr (2 Reviews)    Price verified 38 minutes ago

This text was not written to show how much better the godly kings were than the ungodly kings. It was not written to try to show that God had loved the children of Israel more than the people of all of the other nations. To the contrary, this text was written to show that, in some instances, the godly kings did some things that were just as bad as any of the ungodly kings of Israel. It was written to show that the Lord loved the people who opposed the children of Israel just like He loved the children of Israel. The notion that He had showed special favor to one type of people over another is not scriptural. God has always loved all of the people of His Creation even if He has not always loved everything that they have done. He has also always loved all of the people of His Creation even when they have not loved Him back. So it is hoped that those truths will be evident to those who reads this book. In the pages that follow, four truths will be emphasized. The first is that the Old Testament saints were not continually indwelled by the Holy Spirit in the same way as the New Testament saints. That means that they did not have the same advantages in trying to live for the Lord. The second is that the scriptures do not and were not intended to share exhaustive details about everything and everyone within their historical presentations. That means that they might share a very negative event about a godly king, without trying to offset it with a positive event. The scriptures were written to show the Lord's involvement with humanity and to show people how to find Him. They were not written to say that the godly kings really were godly. The third truth, that will be shared is that all people are sinners. So one should not expect too much from the godly kings of Israel. The fourth truth is that they did not lose their salvation even though some of them did some pretty bad things. So with those few thoughts, it is hoped that the readers of this text will find it ...

Julie Swanson is a single, hardworking professor, admired by her University of Minnesota students.

She's processing these indicators in the same way a polygraph detects elevated levels of blood pressure, skin conductivity, and heart rate. Julie, in effect, has become a lie detector. She and her brain surgeon become romantically involved and together they devise a plan to use her 'sixth sense' to find her attacker.

The Spiritual Discipline of Meditation: A Daily Devotion in the Scriptures by Scott Doherty (19 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Today, when we hear the word meditation we immediately associate the term with a New Age practice. Sadly, the spiritual discipline of meditating on the Scriptures has become uncommon among Christians while in contrast the blending of eastern mysticism with mainstream Christian thought has risen to prominence. True, biblical meditation on the Scriptures has been replaced with a self-centered and mystic spirituality. Overall this spiritual practice has faded with the Puritans. Disciplined meditation, understood in a biblical and meaningful way, brings blessing, joy, and spiritual growth. Many Christians read the Bible each day but don't meditate on it. A lack of meditation often results in lack of profit gained from devotions. Many times during devotions, without meditation, the Christian finishes in the same condition in which he started. This book was written with two purposes in mind. First, to teach people how to meditate on the Scriptures in a meaningful way, after the pattern of the Puritans. Second, a daily devotional format is purposefully used so readers will begin to discipline themselves in meditating on one passage of Scripture each day. Rather than just write about the Puritan form of meditation, this book provides practice through meaningful daily devotions. By the end of the book, after meditating for an entire year, the reader will be trained in one of the most important spiritual disciplines. The purpose of this book is to recover the lost spiritual discipline of meditation.

Unmanageable: A Memoir: Drunken Wisdom (The Powerless Series Book 4) by Lela Fox (A-FEX Books) (69 Reviews)    Price verified 14 hours ago

It seemed like a good idea at the time. He seemed like a nice guy... rich, charming, and sexy. My decisions and illusions seemed perfectly logical to me. So I couldn't understand why people were arguing with me, demanding that I "run from that bastard and get my shit together!" Unmanageable is a crazy tour through two years of anxiety and drunken denial of reality. With marriage #3, problems came like machine-gun fire; I could either dodge or stay drunk on vodka. I chose the vodka. These years were short by the calendar but long on bizarre. From the wedding in a Chinese restaurant to a stint in jail, Unmanageable recreates the most unmanageable time of my life. Underneath, I knew what I saw - a drunk on the way to rock bottom. For the first time, I questioned my sanity. On the white sands of a Bahamas beach, I pleaded to a Higher Power I didn't believe in. I knew the game was over, but I wasn't finished yet. The Powerless series is a memoir told as a story; a story so twisted that it took seven books to reveal it all. This is the fourth stop in the crazy train ride of my life - a zany story about getting drunk, getting sober, and the quest for grace.

This book may shock and offend you! It will test your intellect and provide a gut-retching read giving insights you have never before considered. You will need to be secure in your beliefs to make it through, but if you can make it, and you care about what is true, it will be like a journey from a dark, cold tunnel to warm, beautiful light. Make no mistake, you will have to use your mind and reason and demonstrate some intellectual courage to get the payoff. Do you believe that the historical person of Jesus of Nazareth can show you how to enter into eternal life? If you have never diligently studied his teachings, why would you believe you will enter into Eternal Life? This author has been listening to the real, historical Jesus of Nazareth as he describes himself by his own words in the four gospel books for many years. You will be shocked at how different the life-view Jesus provides is in comparison to what Christianity offers. Yes, science offers many solutions to our problems, but science has limitations. Science does not solve our most pressing problems like how to reduce conflict or how best to implement justice and mercy. Nor can science solve our biggest issue - what happens to us when we die? If you are really interested in the world view of Jesus of Nazareth and the truth about eternal life, this book is for you. The payoff could be a life free from fear, self-pride, and selfishness.

HOW SATAN ATTACKS by Andy Ripley (7 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

For thousands of years, Satan has been marshalling his forces, launching systematic attacks on the sons of Adam. He has launched his barrages against believers and unbelievers alike. For Christians, there is an advantage when facing the evil onslaughts. The Bible details the devil's methods and tactics. Paul says in II Corinthians chapter two that we are not ignorant of Satan's devices. We have seen him act to steal God's word from hearts, to twist God's word in false teaching, and to sow doubt. We have heard his favorite lies and accusations, we have observed him engendering fear, and we have witnessed him sowing tares among the wheat. But too many followers of Jesus Christ remain unaware of the varied ways that Satan weakens, blinds and sickens them. In this book, many of his modes of attack are laid out, with the goal that believers will be more thoroughly fortified against the father of lies.
