The world feels unstable—and Christians are told to believe this is normal. The Bible says otherwise. Cities burn while leaders excuse it. Governments clash with their own citizens. Protests erupt at home while revolutions shake nations abroad. Fear is used to justify control. Truth is treated as flexible. And the church is often pressured to stay quiet, stay vague, and stay out of the way. Down and Dirty with the End Times refuses that silence. This book is not a speculative timeline, a collection of theories, or a sensational attempt to predict dates. It is a prophetic commentary—...

You’ve messed up. Again. The guilt won’t let go. The shame won’t quiet down.

Belong: The Beauty and Necessity of the Local Church – How the Bible Defines the Church What is the church? Is it a building? A global network of believers? Or is it something far more specific—and far more vital—to the heart of God? For centuries, Christians have wrestled with these questions. Many today see the church as optional, outdated, or merely symbolic. But Scripture paints a very different picture: the church is God’s chosen instrument for reaching the world, the bride of Christ, and the place where believers are called to grow, serve, and stand together for truth. In this...

Where Baptists Stood: Early Baptists, Slavery, and the Price of Freedom What did early Baptists believe about slavery? Before the American Revolution, Baptists were a persecuted minority. They were jailed, fined, and whipped for refusing to submit to state churches. They were poor, scattered, and far removed from political power. Yet in a world increasingly shaped by slavery, they maintained a clear focus: preaching the gospel and defending liberty of conscience. In this groundbreaking historical study, veteran pastor and author Marvin McKenzie takes you on a journey through over two ...

This book is an attempt to reconcile each of the prophets with the time in which they lived, the kings who were on the throne and their contemporaries in the ministry. The book concludes with a more extensive look at the final three prophets and their relationship to the doctrine of the coming Messiah. When did prophet Isaiah live? Did other Bible prophets live at the same time as Jeremiah? Which prophets lived in the northern kingdom of Israel? The major and minor prophets of the Old Testament may be some of the most difficult books of the Bible to understand. The prophesies themselves are...

Seeing Christ in Leviticus: The Gospel Before the Gospels invites readers to rediscover one of the most misunderstood books of the Bible—not as a dry manual of rituals, but as a Christ-centered revelation of redemption.

Yet the New Testament declares that these things were written as shadows of good things to come. Long before Bethlehem, Calvary, and the empty tomb, God was already preaching the gospel through pictures, patterns, and ...

The Day the Thunder Fell A Novel Inspired by One Native American Oral History of the Battle of the Little Bighorn This is a work of historical fiction. It is not a historical record. It is not a documentary. It is a story—one rooted in the soil of memory, carried on the wind of oral tradition, and imagined through the eyes of a boy who stood where legends fell. Inspired by one specific oral account passed down among Native families—an account in which General Custer was killed early near Medicine Tail Coulee, not on the hill of the so-called "Last Stand"—this novel offers a ...
