It’s been said that Israel is God’s timepiece – and today that clock is ticking faster than ever before. As stability in the Middle East, Europe, and America continues to deteriorate, many people are increasingly fearful and are wondering what’s going to happen next. This book examines the prophetic events of Psalm 83, Jeremiah 49, and the recent history of Israel and the Middle East. Many of today’s world events can be viewed as the maneuvering of game-pieces on a chessboard, with pawns on either side being conquered and removed, as the major players are moving into their final ...

For Zed and Tuesday, adjusting to life in modern-meets-medieval Falinnheim means normal is relative. Normally, schools aren’t in underground bunkers full of secret agents, and the chore list doesn’t involve herding dodos. The one thing that hasn’t changed: All the adults treat them like they’re invisible. When a security breach interrupts a field trip, the siblings find themselves locked out of the Resistance base. With the adults trapped inside, it’s up to Tuesday, Zed, and their friends to save the day. And for once, being ignored and underestimated is coming in handy.

Tuesday and Zed Furst are perfectly normal children with perfectly strange parents. Their father won’t discuss his job, their mother never leaves the house without her guard dog, and the topic of the family tree is off limits. When a last minute “business trip” gets the adults out of the way, Zed and Tuesday decide to get to the bottom of things once and for all. Too bad some thugs with shape-shifting weapons have other ideas.

The grounds of Camp Havenside look innocent enough — a chapel and worship pavilion, cleanly separated girls and boys cabins, and a lush forest surrounding it that, when the sun falls, goes still and undisturbed with a strange quietude. Suffering from a crisis of faith, Sam, a young church-going teenager, accompanies his youth group to the long-undisturbed Camp Havenside to seek spiritual enlightenment. What he finds is something very, very different.

Students with little or no prior experience of studying Shakespeare in depth will find very useful the summaries of the conclusions of recent research into theatrical conditions, conventions and concepts in the time of Shakespeare. After an overview of Shakespeare’s life and career, the book summarises Elizabethan attitudes to History and Politics, concepts of the cosmos, theological issues such as Free Will and the Fall of Man, and the tensions that ultimately destroyed consensus on these matters. Discussion of expectations of different types of plays then precedes detailed analysis of ...

Literature Insights are a series of superior study guides for discriminating students and their teachers. This book provides a basis for informed discussion of Richard III, one of Shakespeare’s most beautifully-crafted plays, and the issues it raises – which are as ominously relevant to politics and people now as they were when it was new. After a brief examination of ‘Jacobethan’ attitudes to history and politics, the first chapter summarises some key concepts: the sort of world people thought they were living in, the issues of freewill and predestination, and the supposed (and in ...

Fifty years after Babel, the fledgling clan of Joktan has settled in the fertile grasslands of Uz to the west of Shinar and slowly begins to take root, but some of his sons are impatient to acquire honor, and lands of their own – and gold. With endless fields and ...

The defining reality of the eternal destiny of the lost, the unforgiven and unredeemed, is also the last words given in Scripture for that topic – the second death. The second death involves the separation of the unrepentant, recalcitrant sinner from God and all His blessings. In contrast, the defining reality of the saved, the forgiven and redeemed, is the eternal intimate presence and blessings of God Himself. Hell’s curse is the divine departure of God. Heaven’s blessing is the unprecedented presence of God with His people.

There's a corpse on his train – and a killer still on board... Rusty Macduff is a private eye with a niche: he only takes on the cases every other detective in the golden age of crime turns down. But this time he hasn't got a choice.
