The Analects or Selected Sayings is an ancient Chinese text comprising sayings and wisdom teachings attributed to Confucius and his contemporaries, as well as fragmentary dialogues between the philosopher and his students. The Analects has been one of the most influential books in China for the last two millennia, and continues to contribute to Chinese and East Asian culture and thought.

Who are the Jehovah's Witnesses? Many of us have seen or been visited by folks calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses. Most of us have slammed the door in the faces of these hard working young men and women as they try to share their gospel with us. I, however, use to delight in conversation with such folks as these, not to be argumentative but to try and understand their doctrine.

All of us need wisdom to make it through life successfully. The question is, where do we find true wisdom? The Word of God plainly tells us in the book of Jeremiah that it is not in man, even man at his best, to direct his own steps. Ordering our lives requires the kind of wisdom that only comes from God. In this book, Wisdom's Winning Ways, you'll learn how to tap into God's wisdom to conquer clutter and confusion so that you can be a winner in Life!

The education system is broken. People are quick to agree with that statement. They might even have their own opinions on why it's true. Yet they keep feeding kids into that broken system hoping to get better results. Why is anyone surprised that broken systems create broken kids? We wring our hands, point fingers, and never get around to fixing the system. Angie Taylor has spent more than 30 years in education and knew firsthand what wasn't working. She watched as kids with potential were lost in the system.

Life is a gift, brimming with seemingly endless possibilities. Often, our days are filled with joy and purpose. But life can change in an instant, plunging us into a sea of chaos and fear as our faith is tested. Perhaps we are going through a prolonged season of suffering that feels like it will never end—and we spiral into the depths of despair. No matter our season of life, we're meant to live in a way that glorifies God. We're meant to find joy, hope, and peace in the midst of suffering.

A suburban Boston school unwittingly started a firestorm of controversy over a sixth-grade field trip. The class was visiting a mosque to learn about world religions when a handful of boys, unnoticed by their teachers, joined the line of worshippers and acted out the motions of the Muslim call to prayer. A video of the prayer went viral with the title "Wellesley, Massachusetts Public School Students Learn to Pray to Allah". Charges flew that the school exposed the children to Muslims who intended to convert American schoolchildren.

I was raised Catholic. You can all bless me now. Surviving a Catholic upbringing is a lot like surviving a repetitive hurricane. Just when you think you’ve got enough protection from the danger someone (Usually my Mother) throws a curve ball of Catholic guilt at you and you’re stuck trying to remember if it is a sin or not, whether it requires a confession, and the amount of shame you should feel. It’s like dodging the hurricane all over again. Depression runs a rough shot in the Catholic religion and trust me, I know why. Happiness is frowned upon.

Colleges, universities, and seminaries do more than just transfer knowledge to students. They sell themselves as "experiences" that transform young people in unique ways. The conservative evangelical Protestant network of higher education has been no different. In Fundamentalist U, Adam Laats shows that these colleges have always been more than just schools; they have been vital intellectual citadels in America's culture wars. These unique institutions have defined what it has meant to be an evangelical and have reshaped the landscape of American higher education.

The 1960s promised us an explosion of love and brotherhood, but instead they delivered a nation in turmoil, confusion, and moral decline. In this series, Skip Heitzig and the Calvary pastors tell us about God's solution for damaged families, His guide for successful marriage, and how to restore a relationship that has been damaged by sin. This series will take you beyond the easy, simplistic slogans of man, and back toward the plan of our loving heavenly Father.

“These be the names of the mighty men whom David had…” (II Samuel 23:8) At the end of his life, David recorded a list of his soldiers that went above and beyond the call of duty in their service for him. There were thirty-seven men whose names were recorded in II Samuel 23, and over fifty men in I Chronicles 11. These men served David with love and zeal, and it was David’s intention to have them remembered. In this study of the Mighty Men of David, I have endeavored to look at them exactly as they appear in the Bible. I have listed all of the facts that are available to give the ...

We're made to look passive, dissociated, and defeated. If we're not pot-bellied beer drinkers or egoistic morons, no one wants to watch the broadcast. What happened to John Wayne, Matt Dillon, and G.I. Joe? Men who knew their strengths, understood their roles, believed in hard-nosed Christian values. Well, they're not dead; in fact, they're alive and well buried inside each one of us, waiting to emerge like the heroes they are. All they need is a reminder of what our God-given nature is. It's time for us to go back to the very beginning and dissect exactly who we are as men.

Passover holds immense significance in Jewish life, deeply rooted in history and shaping Jewish identity. This celebration has been enriched by diverse Jewish communities worldwide, who have added their own unique customs and traditions. Exploring these variations illuminates the creativity of the Jewish people, embellishing the ancient Exodus story and time-honored traditions. The Passover sacrifice, foreshadowing a greater event, symbolizes freedom from eternal death through the Messiah's sacrificial blood. In the absence of a Temple, Rabbinical law replaced the sacrifice with the seder ...

Mark Young believes a revitalization of the evangelical movement must happen in our seminaries, where the shepherds of the next evangelicalism are being formed. Young argues that if these leaders of tomorrow are instilled with true gospel values, they will go on to form churches and missional organizations that offer a credible and compelling Christlike witness for the sake of the world. The Hope of the Gospel takes listeners through the history of evangelicalism and back to the present to make the case for how this can happen through a renewed vision of theological education.

When you ask people the question, you usually get many different answers. Some see God as an authoritarian leader or dictator, others see Him as aloof and distant. Still, others see Him as a father figure concerned with even the smallest details of their lives. Whatever your view of God may be, it matters. In God is For You, David Blunt explains that in order for God to do the good things He wants to do in your life, you must have the right perspective of Him.

Many of us (both men and women) are familiar with the perfect built, ultra powerful, action movie type of hero. This picture has made it difficult for many people to even dare to imagine achieving anything something great. In reality all of us are called to do something great; something extraordinary; something that will affect and change other peoples’ lives for the better. Only if we believe it.

This book will explain why the earth we live on very well could be the actual location of hell. Wouldn't it be frustrating to get to heaven and find out that the earth was the location of hell all along? Think of all the things we could do to better enjoy our time here if we had only known. By accepting that earth is the real hell, many people might find it emotionally liberating. Now you know why you've had to suffer through so much as an occupant of this planet.

The Body of Messiah today is not seeing the type of spiritual outpouring that we read about in the book of Acts, even though we have access to modern buildings, transportation, and technology that Paul and Peter never even imagined. We have tools and resources far beyond what the early believers had, so common sense and simple statistics tell us that we should be accomplishing much more than they did. However, even with all of our advantages, the statistics provided by research groups tell us that the number of people who believe in Yeshua (Jesus) is on the decline. If this is true (and it ...
