Overmountain Men : A Novel
$20.95The Cherokee called it Tanisi, a land rich in game, beauty and resources. Joshua Colter called it home. Born in Charles Town in Carolina and baptised in the horror of an Indian massacre, Joshua became one of the legendary long hunters and crossed the mountain range that for many years had protected Indian lands from the Atlantic Coast settlements. There he became a reluctant leader in the bitter struggle between the Cherokee nation and the white settlers, and between the settlers and the British crown. The first volume in the Tennessee Frontier series, The Overmountain Men is a saga of adventure in the period from 1757 to 1777. Cameron Judd paints a picture of the pioneering spirit of the men and women who moved west as homesteaders and traders and also of the courage of the Indians who fought to keep their lands.

God Of The Possible (Reprinted)
$22.351. The Classical View Of Divine Foreknowledge
2. The God Who Faces A Partially Open Future
3. What Difference Does It Make?
4. Questions And Objections
176 PagesAdditional Info
Perhaps no theological topic is more hotly debated within evangelical Christianity these days than God’s foreknowledge. Is the future exhaustively settled, or does it include possibilities (maybes)? In encountering such questions, a growing number of evangelicals are becoming dissatisfied with the classical view of foreknowledge and have accepted an alternative, open view of God. In God of the Possible theologian Greg Boyd offers an accessible introduction to the freewill theism position.Boyd begins by laying out and critiquing the “motif of future determinism,” which forms the basis of the classical view of foreknowledge. He goes on to explicate several scripture passages that depict the future as partially open and that God therefore knows it as such. He then discusses some practical areas in which he thinks the open view can make a positive difference. Finally, Boyd addresses the most frequently asked questions and typical objections raised against the open view. An appendix explores other passages supporting the open view of God and the future.
Exploring issues of foreknowledge, freedom, and the future, Boyd presents biblical, theological, and philosophical insights into the openness issue in this introductory, yet provocative, book. While geared particularly for a lay readership, more advanced students of theology will also benefit from his presentation.

Book Of Heaven
$68.31Description
In every culture, in every epoch, human beings have yearned for heaven–the kingdom of God, abode of the elect, fount of enlightenment, mirror of hopes and desires. Now, in The Book of Heaven , Carol and Philip Zaleski provide the first wide-ranging anthology of writings about heaven, drawing from scriptures, myths, epics, poems, prayers, sermons, novels, hymns and spells, to illuminate a vast spectrum of beliefs about the world beyond.The Zaleskis present a fascinating array of ancient and modern, solemn and comic meditations, as they explore such topics as the often treacherous journey to heaven, heaven’s colorful inhabitants, its topographic features, and its moral architecture. The emphasis is on great literature, with substantial excerpts taken from classic works such as The Iliad , St. Augustine’s Confessions, The Prose Edda, The Divine Comedy, Paradise Lost , and The Pilgrim’s Progress ; from sacred texts such as the Bible, the Upanishads, the Qu’ran, the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and the Bhagavata Purana; and from diverse writers such as Plato, Cicero, Thomas Traherne, Henry Fielding, Emanuel Swedenborg, Percy Bysshe Shelley, John Henry Cardinal Newman, Hans Christian Andersen, William James, G. K. Chesterton, C. G. Jung, Rupert Brooke, and Arthur Conan Doyle. Selections highlight both the diversity and the universality of reflection on heaven: the sacred chants of the Buddhist Pure Land sutras reverberate alongside John Donne’s holy sonnets, and Shaker songs complement Jewish mystical hymns.
From the words of Sioux holy man Black Elk, to a sermon by Jonathan Edwards, to humorous musings by Mark Twain and fantastical passages from The Chronicles of Narnia , this rich anthology will deepen our understanding of the myriad ways in which human beings have envisioned heaven.

Next Steps In Community Ministry
$41.42Dudley and a research team go back to 24 ministries still in existence five years after the Church and Community Project’s completion. They discovered:
how the myths and expectations of funding, lay/clergy leadership, and church/society partnerships were shattered by what is doable;
how the often Herculean efforts frustrated and tired participants, who were then uplifted and sustained by making a difference;
how faith was the foundation for action, and how, through action, the poor, the homeless, and others in need became real people and not statistics.
Perhaps most important is the discovery that community ministry takes shape in ways unique to local issues of theology, church size, social location, and cultural composition.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Soul Of The Congregation
$24.99Thomas Edward Frank points out that the dominant paradigm of many comtemporary books about church administration reflects an underlying “theology of progress,” a distilling of the gospel into self-worth, a conflation of basilea with market growth. According to Frank, good fortune and blessing are confused; praise and good feeling are identified. The paradigm of success and progress, however, fails to account adequately for the vision of the believers’ presence in the world as ecclesia. “The soul of the congregation,” argues Frank, is a way of being and being-in-the-world, and not didactic or productive.
