If you are looking for meaning and purpose in life, this book is for you!Do you want to know what God intends for your life and what your future looks like?

Beginning with Abraham, the only person called the "friend of God" in the Scriptures, you proceed, step by step, through the unfolding destiny of the human race.Find answers to questions such as:What is God's purpose for Israel and my life?How can I receive answers to my prayers?Who is the 'Prophet like Moses' mentioned in the Bible?What is God's plan for prosperity?How can I have victory over sin and receive supernatural power?What will happen in the last days before Messiah's return?Derek Prince sought answers to these questions in ancient and modern philosophy, and also in oriental mysticism. He was educated as a scholar of classical languages (Greek, Latin, Hebrew, and Aramaic) at Eton College and Cambridge University in England and later at Hebrew University, Israel. However, it was in the study of the Bible, while serving with the British Army during World War II, that he found his answer. From that time on, he devoted himself to studying and teaching the Word of God.In the late 1950s, while serving as head of a teacher training college in Kenya, Derek Prince prepared a manual to help others who were searching as he had been. That book, the Self-Study Bible Course, has sold millions of copies in English and many other languages. In Search of Truth is an expanded and revised version of that original course.In Search of Truth begins with Abraham, the only person called the "friend of God" in the Scriptures. From there the seeker proceeds, step by step, through the unfolding destiny of the human race. This book is for the serious student who wants to find out the meaning and purpose of life.

It is an instruction book for the believer in Jesus Christ and, as Pastor Carla Joseph of Perfect Love Ministries in Gretna, Louisiana, has said, "It is desperately needed by the Body of Christ today to educate and inform us, because no one is involved in deliverance these days."

Those who are rooted in Christ are equipped to withstand the storms of life-like the wise man that built his house on a rock and was not "tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine" (Eph.4:14). They will find nourishment in Christ and peace that surpasses understanding. Jesus said, "These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full" (John 15:10-11).

He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing" (John 15:5). To love God and discern why He put us here is our mission: "We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them" (Eph.2:10). With that confidence, we can be Rooted in our God-given purpose."That you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend. . .what is the width and length and depth and height-to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God" (Ephesians 3:17-19).-ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dr. Brad Whitt is the senior pastor of the historic Abilene Baptist Church in Augusta and president of Real Life Today, a preaching and teaching ministry.

Bill Johnson guides you through the book that transformed his healing ministry.The Gospels are full of stories of supernatural healing-sight restored to the blind, the lame made to walk, and the dead raised to life. We wonder why these types of miracles aren't more prevalent in our own lives. Is it our lack of faith? Do we just need to try harder, believe more? But these questions imply that these miracles are born out of our own efforts.This isn't how faith works. As Bill Johnson says in the introduction to this special edition, "Faith is not about striving; it is about surrender."In this unique book, Bill Johnson guides you through the work that has most influenced his own healing ministry: The Real Faith, written by Dr. Charles Price in 1940. Containing an introduction, guided notes, and questions by Pastor Bill to enrich your reading, this timeless classic by one of the great "generals" of the faith offers proven wisdom for your journey in healing ministry.In The Real Faith, Charles Price and Bill Johnson will invite you to think differently about faith-and therefore, healing miracles. Faith is:A gift from God, given to usA product of our total surrender to HimAn invitation to know God deeplyBorn out of intimacy with GodAn ongoing discovery with GodFor Charles Price and Bill Johnson, supernatural healing is a byproduct of deep, abiding intimacy with God. As you read Dr. Price's ageless words and Pastor Bill's remarkable insights, you'll begin to understand that the miracles we long for are not about our own efforts, they're a product of real faith. That is, faith given to us by Him.

"What is human" is one of the contentious topics in the world today. We no longer know what a human is. Where once humans made machines, now machines make humans. And the machines humans do make are becoming our most preferred relationships. In this pathbreaking and provocative book, Leonard Sweet contends it is our sacred duty to be human. Human identity is not who we have become but who we are created to be. Jesus Human explores how Jesus, in showing us the way to God, shows us the way to ourselves and the way to be human. All that it means to be human is here, in one person: Jesus, the greatest human, the most alive human, who ever lived. Learning to be a disciple of Jesus is learning to be a human being in a world that has been humaimed-our true identity has been amputated or disfigured. In scintillating prose and from a vast panorama of reading, Sweet demonstrates how the Jesus story is about "being" human and "human" being-both of which follow from following Jesus. Jesus gives back to us our full humanity as part of the redemption of all creation. Jesus doesn't help us rise above our humanity but enter our humanity. In short, discipleship formation or spiritual formation is really Christ formation or human formationSweet insists you can't be human without the divine, which makes the process of becoming human, or humanation, part of the Trinity's ongoing incarnation as the Spirit brings Christ to life in each of us. There is no elixir that, when taken, transforms a person into a true human. But there is the Living Water of Life.

To be a servant, in the most basic sense, is to serve someone other than yourself. In the secular arena, the word servant may even have a negative connotation, but what are its implications for those who follow Christ? What does it really mean to be a faithful servant of the Lord, or to have a servant's heart? In The Life of Servanthood, Timothy C. Tennent gets to the root of what it means to be a servant by laying a foundation through a distinctly Christian voice and vision. Tennent works through the seemingly paradoxical nature of how Christ's service brings about justice and salvation to the world. Jesus also provides a model which invites God's people to imitate him, and therefore embody what redemption looks like for the world. With theological expertise borne out of experience spanning more than thirty years, Tennent teaches readers what makes Christian servanthood unique and why its power endures as a countercultural force.

Shedrick Crosby recalls his journey toward faith in this memoir that gives glory to God and shares insights from the Bible.As a child, he remembers going out to sit on the porch alone and asking God, "Why did you make me?" Even at that young age, he was seeking answers instead of spinning a top or playing horseshoes.The devil, however, was after him from a young age, encouraging him to steal, lie, and misbehave. One morning, when everyone was asleep, he ventured out to the front steps and hit a bullet as hard as he could. There was a loud bang, and he looked around to see where the bullet had gone. It was only later he realized that the bullet could have hit him or a neighbor.Later, he joined the Marines, serving his country from 1976 to 1980. While stationed at Camp Geiger down the road from Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina, he participated in a vibrant and sinful nightlife.Join the author as he looks back at a lifetime of searching for answers, the mistakes he made along the way, and the lessons he learned from the Bible and by walking with the Lord. Read the authors take on Daniel Seven about the Fourth Beast, The Mark of the Beast and the Son of Perdition.

How can the Church fulfill its mandate to be one, even as the Father and the Son are one? The key is in what we all share in the unity of the Spirit.The society around us is becoming more and more diverse. Getting to know people in a meaningful way requires us to identify our own cultural biases and strive to understand theirs. Our unity as Christians in our local assemblies is being challenged in cultural ways now more than ever before. But unity is still our mandate from the Lord.This book provides tools to help us understand our brothers and sisters who are from different cultural backgrounds. Daniel presents a framework for how we can all come into alignment with the culture of heaven, finding unity in the Spirit. The challenge for all of us is to give up our unhealthy biases and nurture those that agree with the teachings of Christ. Only then can we be one- just as the Father and Son are one.
