Teachers Guide To Understanding The End Times (Teacher’s Guide)
$6.99
The Rapture, the Antichrist, Armageddon, and the Day of Judgment
End-times images are everywhere from books, movies, to video games. Curiosity about the last days is rampant, and people are asking all kinds of questions: “Who is the Antichrist?” “Will Jesus really rapture his church?” “What is the role, if any, of the nation of Israel?” And most importantly, “Are we living in the end times?”
In this insightful book, Samuel Powell explores all these questions and more. He traces end-times beliefs from the days of the Old Testament to today and explains the origins of the most popular ideas. Drawing on his theological expertise, Dr. Powell then offers and alternative approach to interpreting biblical prophecies that takes into account the Bible’s purpose. He explains that the deeper meaning of prophetic scriptures is often overlooked in favor of more popular and provocative interpretations.
An excellent resource for pastors, teachers, and small-group leaders, this concise book dispels much of the confusion surrounding end-times thinking. As an added bonus, the book includes a chapter listing the top mistakes made about the end times, along with a helpful glossary.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$25.99Add to cartThe women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
