DANIEL
Prophet to the Nations
Dr. John M. Oakes
2008, 272 pages
Bible readers have always loved the book of Daniel, inspired by heroes like Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who faced persecutions and strove to remain committed to God while held captive in a secular society. But when reading the book’s prophetic and apocalyptic sections, many people feel mystified and confused.
In Daniel: Prophet to the Nations, John M. Oakes presents a balanced and objective attempt to unlock the prophetic message of Daniel, while placing the book in its proper historical context. For the twenty-first century reader who is able to look back in time and see how countless specific prophecies have been realized, the validity of the message of Daniel is proven in a very convincing manner.
The faith and deep convictions that can be gained from understanding the book of Daniel will help Christians apply the practical examples of righteous living (even in a godless culture) to their own individual lives.

MINE EYES HAVE SEEN THE GLORY
The Victory of the Lamb in the Book of Revelation
Gordon Ferguson
2008, 196 pages
Mysterious. Confusing. Intriguing, Symbolic. Deep. Difficult. Literal. Futuristic. All these words and many others describe the final book of the Bible
Misunderstood. Misinterpreted. Misapplied. These words speak of the "missed" message of Revelation in light of today's prevailing humanism, hedonism, and hypocrisy.
Inspiring. Crucial. Radical. Victorious. Compelling. Challenging. Thrilling. Strengthening. These are a few of the right words- God's initial intent- about what is to happen in out hearts and in out souls after spending time with the apostle John on the island of Patmos as he reveals God through this revelation. In Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory, Gordon Ferguson unlocks and unleashes God's powerful and timeless message- a message that will forever revolutionize our lives!
THE RESURRECTION
A Historic Analysis
C. Foster Stanback
2008, 88 pages
The resurrection message was an integral part of the early Christian proclamation, as is evident in all parts of the New Testament: Gospels, Acts, Letters, and Apocalypse. Christians have always believed that after his crucifixion, Jesus rose from the dead. To believers, this was completely in accord with the scriptures, even though at first it was a great shock to his demoralized followers. But how can we be sure we have correctly understood the biblical message? Is it really essential to interpret the resurrection as a historical event, a physical reality? Did Jesus truly emerge from the grave, or is there another way to look at this Christian doctrine? (Perhaps only the idea of Jesus made a “comeback.” Or maybe the Christian doctrine is not unique; did not, after all, many pagan deities die and come back to life?)
Considering that many books have tackled the subject—hardly a fresh field for New Testament studies—one might doubt whether a new book could be useful. And yet such doubts are not warranted. In The Resurrection, Foster Stanback has produced an eminently clear, thoughtful, and penetrating analysis of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He has masterfully surveyed and incorporated the conclusions of the best (and sometimes the worst!) New Testament scholarship into his own careful study, bringing solid analytic skills to the discussion. And he has shown us that the traditional Christian view is indeed the most plausible interpretation of the facts. Moreover, Foster’s passion for his subject comes across in his faithful adherence to his topic, refusal to go down side-streets, and assiduous development of the central arguments. The author deals with the many challenges to the orthodox doctrine of the resurrection. —Douglas Jacoby (from the Foreword)

THAT YOU MAY BELIEVE
Reflections on Science and the Miracles of Jesus

Reflections on Science and the Miracles of Jesus
David M. Eastman & John M. Oakes
2008, 184 Pages
In Acts 2, there are three words used to define supernatural works:
“Miracles” is the Greek word dunamis, defined as “power, ability, physical or moral, as residing in a person or thing.” ”Wonder” is the rendering of the Greek noun teras, literally, “something strange.” The emphasis is on events that cause the beholder to marvel. “Signs” is the Greek word semeion. The word means sign or signal. It implies a thing which can be used for identification. The emphasis is that miracles and wonders are signs of divine authority.
There are unbelievers who deny miracles ever happen. Even among liberal “believers,” the miracles of Jesus are doubted or explained away. But none of those who spent time around Jesus, even among his enemies, ever denied his miracles. Instead, they sought to discredit him in various ways, attributing his miraculous power to Satan or demons. The records we have in the New Testament accurately document what Jesus accomplished in the realm of the miraculous.
You will marvel as you meditate on his miracles, watch him create the universe, heal the human body, bend the laws of physics, manipulate creation, read the thoughts of others and resurrect the dead. Think beyond the doubt and absurd fantasies of unbelieving scholars, and understand what he accomplished. Apply these ruminations to your own life, and come to believe, in a fuller and more mature way, what he is capable of achieving in and through you. “The work of God is to believe,” so strap in, observe, marvel, and be prepared to believe as never before!

THY KINGDOM COME!
Douglas Jacoby
2008, 4 CD's
The Kingdom of God: Some teach that it did not exist before Pentecost, others that it will come only at the end of time. Yet the Scriptures portray the Kingdom as always present. After all, the Lord is the King, and how can one be a king without a kingdom?
What does the Bible say? How does God's Kingdom differ from earthly empires? How are we to regard the Old Testament prophecies predicting the arrival of the King (and his Kingdom) in the first century? If Jesus is Lord (our King), what does he expect of his obedient subjects? And can Christians pray "Thy Kingdom Come" with integrity?
Dr. Jacoby guides us through the intricacies of this vital subject in a manner that is both illuminating and inspiring. Lesson notes are included with the four audio CDs.
Messages:
1. The Kingdom of God and the Kingdoms of Men
2. Prophecies of the King
3. The Life of the King and the Will of the King
4. "Thy Kingdom Come": Already But Not Yet!

UNSUNG HEROES
The Mack Strong Story
Curt Simmons
2008, 208 pages
If success or heroic behavior were measured only by the amount of recognition or compensation someone received for their efforts, then very few people could lay claim to either of those achievements. Using a former NFL fullback with the Seattle Seahawks as a model, Unsung Heroes boldly states that things like headlines and high salaries have little or nothing to do with importance or relevance—not just in sports, but in all walks of life.
In Unsung Heroes, you will get an inside look at Mack Strong’s football career, his family life, his failures and successes, his future goals and dreams and the faith he claims that helps him to hold everything together. And though you will come to learn that his teams have never been declared state champions, national champions or world champions, you will come away with an appreciation for the number of wins he’s collected in the all-important game of life.
