Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “extraordinarily researched” account of a quest to find MIA fighter pilots decades after World War II (Barrett Tillman). 1940: The air over Britain is filled with danger. Courageous and heroic men fly and fight, often sacrificing their lives to keep the nation free. Some of them will disappear into the summer sky without leaving a trace . . . This remarkable book records the lives of RAF pilots who were shot down and remained missing for decades—until diligent research efforts by author Andy Saunders and others brought identification to them and closure to their families. Each case represents a fascinating human story of drama, love, and tragedy; these stories are filled with startling detective work, remarkable coincidences, and shocking controversy. Finding the Few ends with a mystery still unsolved, and features photographs throughout, standing as a fitting testament to those men lost but not forgotten.

Book excerpt: When life looks radically different than the plan we have for ourselves, it's the lucky few that recognize God's plan is best. That's what adoptive mom Heather Avis learned, and that's the invitation of this book. As the mother of three adopted children - two with Down syndrome - Heather Avis has learned that it's truly the lucky few who get to live a life like hers, who actually recognize that God's plans are best, even when they seem so radically different from the plans we have for ourselves. When Heather started her journey into parenthood she never thought it would look like this, never planned to have three adopted children, and certainly never imagined that two of them would have Down syndrome. But like most things God does, once she stepped into the craziness and confusion that comes with the unknown and the unplanned, she realized that they were indeed among the lucky few. Discover in this book what 70,000+ followers of Heather's hit Instagram account @macymakesmyday already know: the power of faith and family can help us stay strong in the toughest times. This book will also be especially touching to those with adopted family members or children with Down syndrome in their lives.

Book excerpt: Two young men set out on a religious journey. One was born a Muslim from East Africa, and the other was born in the Caribbean and brought up as a Christian. Although they grew up on different sides of the Atlantic, they had one thing in commonwhich is to find the truth. As they embarked on the journey to find truth, they contemplated the truth as they knew it when they were growing up. Did they arrive at it on their own, or was it their parents truth? The journey for truth brought these two men together, and a deep friendship developed. A pact was formed that neither one would leave the other behind in their educational development and their spiritual pursuit. The friendship led to a greater discovery between the two men that will last a lifetime.

I have studied the Bible (KJV) for over 60 years. I speak neither Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic, but I have spent thousands of hours engrossed in listening to sermons preached by men with a level of education (Piled, Higher, and Deeper) than my two years of college. During my years of service in the U.S. Navy, I had the privilege of visiting Athens, Greece. While there I climbed Mars Hill, and standing in the footsteps of Paul, I imagined myself speaking to a large group of people. Of course, this was only in my imagination. I have learned since then, that "rightly dividing the word of truth" does not mean that you cut the Bible down the middle, throw out what we call today the "Old Testament," and study and live by only what is written in the New Testament. I eventually came to the uncomfortable conclusion, that my understanding of the Holy Scriptures was more accurate than 99% of what is being taught today. Has Yeho-vah hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and has revealed them unto a babe? (Matthew 11:25 & 26) You decide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few Are Those Who Find It emphasizes Gods instructions throughout the Word that will have the reader ready to meet Him face to face at the time of his or her departure from earth. It stresses Gods repeat warnings to turn from sin, along with His unconditional love, mercy, forgiveness, and grace (specific to its vital role once we receive salvation). It reveals the heart that God has been looking for from the beginning. Once understood, this book will lead the reader to freedom from the struggle of self-efforts to live righteously, as well as deliverance from self-condemnation as he or she applies Gods grace to successfully overcome difficult habits. The reader will be enabled to peacefully and confidently remain on the straight and narrow path to Heaven. God understands our weaknesses, and He is for us. He never looks at us, thinking how bad a sin we've committed. He looks past that to the person He desperately loves and wants in Heaven for eternity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate.' John Piper's contemporary classic draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage
