The final tome of the Revelation Riddle trilogy provides gripping prophetic revelation on God’s inimitable plan for humanity. Dark forces hatched an evil conspiracy to destroy human life, but God already intervened. Satan stepped into every trap set by the Creator. The judgment tipping point arrived—the world imminently moves into the next age. This book chronicles what really happened in Eden. It rediscovers the biblical End Times blueprint the early Church understood from ancient scrolls such as Enoch—hidden for thousands of years.

Ahead of the pivotal 2020 elections, momentum is building across America to revisit the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that struck down laws protecting unborn children and their mothers nationwide.

Drawing Lines Building Bridges seeks to bring clarity to the confusion Christians have today concerning what to do about homosexuality in the church and how to respond to homosexuals in their lives. While drawing lines between the values held by society and the traditional morality preserved by the church, Drawing Lines Building Bridges advocates strategies of bridge-building engagement between Christians and the LGBT community - strategies which model the example of Jesus and Paul in the Bible and reflect the concerns of the LGBT community.

In Heroic Conservatism, Gerson uses his own experiences in the upper tier of the Bush White House to show why America needs a conservatism that is heroic in its aspirations, including "compassionate conservative" proposals to confront global AIDS, combat poverty in America, and promote human rights and dignity abroad - initiatives that Gerson fought for during his time in government.

As Christian: The Politics of a Word in America shows, for many American Christians, concepts like liberty and equality are rooted in the transcendent claims about human nature that Christianity offers. Democracy, equality under the law, and other basic principles of American government are seen as depending on the Christian faith's sustenance and support. Yet despite this presumed consensus, differing Christian beliefs have led to dispute and disagreement about what American society and government should look like.

In 1989, the literary world was rocked by an unprecedented event: Ayatollah Khomeini, the leader of Revolutionary Iran, issued a fatwa against Salman Rushdie, the author of The Satanic Verses. Rushdie's book was considered by many Muslims to be blasphemy for its depiction of Mohammed, and Khomeini had just ordered Rushdie's death. The book was banned in several countries and led to attacks against those involved in its publication. Hanif Kureishi called the fatwa 'one of the most significant events in post-war literary history'.

Bruce presents compelling evidence the US was originally founded upon Christian principles as a Constitutional republic (not a democracy) and has an unfilled destiny. Destroying the Shadow Agenda explores some defining moments of America’s formation and the highly censored and little-known proofs regarding the profound influence of Biblical Christianity upon the Founding Fathers.

The First Amendment to the US Constitution codified the principle that the government should play no role in favoring or supporting any religion, while allowing free exercise of all religions (including unbelief). More than two centuries later, the results from this experiment are overwhelming: The separation of church and state has shielded the government from religious factionalism, and the United States boasts a diverse religious culture unmatched anywhere in the world.

The Evangelical Church in the United States and other parts of the world, in general, is in a crisis of identity and stuck at a pivotal crossroads of history, conflicted about its God-given role and direction.

Journalist Krithika Varagur's Da'wa chronicles the House of Saud as it systematically transforms the Muslim world in its own image, in one of the major imperial projects in today's world, on par with China's economic diplomacy. Since 1979, Saudi Arabia has spent $1.8 billion per year, by one estimate, to propagate its puritanical brand of Islam, called Salafism or Wahhabism. It has kept scrupulous records of its religious activity in 27 countries, with over 4,000 Salafi preachers on its payroll worldwide.

Could April, 2019 be that time indicated in the Bible as the time that begins the Tribulation period? And, if so; what does the word tribulation mean? Will we on earth have notice when this tribulation begins; if as the Bible prophesies, it will begin? The Bible very clearly answers many of these End Times questions. These answers may be extrapolated mainly from three parts of the Bible. They are The Olivet Prophesy, the Book of Daniel, and the Book of Revelation. These important details are explained in this book. This book also explains how and why Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton play ...

When the blatantly obscene Broadway play, “Oh! Calcutta!” was scheduled to be performed in Jamie Buckingham’s hometown of Melbourne, Florida, controversy swirled within the community because the actors, both men and women, were going to be performing many of the scenes totally nude in front of their live audience. With this as the backdrop, Jamie spoke to his congregation about how we, as Christians, should respond to the world's godlessness. Should we protest with boycotts and marches and angry slogans on placards? Or is there a better way? How can we be a light in this godless ...

The wisdom acquired during C. T. Vivian's lifetime is generously shared in It's In the Action, the civil rights legend's memoir of his early life and time in the civil rights movement. Vivian worked hand in hand with the movement's most famous figures, including Martin Luther King Jr. and John Lewis, and his contributions were no less vital to the successes of nonviolent resistance. Bearing a foreword from Andrew Young, It's in the Action is an important addition to civil rights history from Vivian and coauthor Steve Fiffer.

The United States - the world's great bastion of freedom - is sliding toward socialism. High-profile bailouts and a stimulus bill have toppled the walls between government and private sectors. Federal control now extends in various ways to education, health care, financial markets, real estate, businesses, and religion. And as out-of-control government spending and debt increase, America is drained of the economic and political strength its people fought for and worked so hard to achieve.

In Believers, Thinkers, and Founders: How We Came to Be One Nation Under God, Kevin Seamus Hasson - founder and president emeritus of the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty - offers a refreshing resolution to a familiar conundrum: If there is real religious freedom in America, how is it that our government keeps invoking God? He's everywhere, from our currency to the Pledge of Allegiance. Isn't that all entirely too religious? And just whose God are we talking about, anyway?
