A Book of Revelations: His Light Unto My Path
Price range: $3.99 through $23.99Valeria Franklin, an anointed teacher, inspired by the Holy Spirit, for such a time as this, writes to encourage and give hope. In a time when all is chaos and confusion, dark, doom, and gloom, Franklin lets us know there is light at the end of the tunnel. That light is hope. There is hope and hope lets us not be ashamed (Romans 5:5).
This hope can only be captured through an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, a lifestyle of holiness and worship, which is merely complete obedience to God.
God will always send someone back to reach you where you are, who has a greater light, to get you where you need to go. He then sends someone back to get that person, to take them to their next dimension of faith. What you make happen for others God will make happen for you (Ephesians 6:8).
I take this opportunity to give thanks to Prophet Darwin Washington of Prophet Unto the Nations Ministry, Plano, Texas. He is truly a man seeking and is in hot pursuit of the heart of God. Prophet Washington is a man of God with such great gifts, but above all he has the gift of insight, when the answer to every problem is being able to see the answer. He is a man of God who truly labours with you, not to act as Lord, but to help perfect that which is lacking in your faith (I Thessalonians 3:10).

The Greatest Human Deception
Price range: $3.99 through $11.99The Greatest Human Deception is certainly one of the most explosive thought-provoking books of immense proportions and dimensions. Certainly, a “Christian Classic” and a must-read book beneficial to all. Using indisputable scientific facts, the author diagnoses the reasons for world problems of health, hatred with wars, and provides the “magic” prescription to cure all individuals and world problems. Argues forcibly that the present educational system of the world is flawed because it is in the “wrong direction,” and advocates a “turn around” to the “right type of education.” And inspiration to believers, an eye-opener to unbelievers, a challenge to atheists, agnostics, and the uncommitted. In the Greatest Human Deception, the existence of God is not an exercise of “Quod Erat Faciendum” but a magnificent and colossal statement of “Quod Erat Demonstratum” (that which has been proven or demonstrated). A grand philosophical edifice, cemented with scientific facts.

Resurrection?: Fact or Fiction? A Trial Lawyer Examines The Evidence
Price range: $3.99 through $13.99The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are the central facts undergirding Christian faith and life. Joe Otto brings to bear his legal training in a succinct and masterful summary of the Biblical and historical evidence for the reality of these events and compellingly urges their significance for us today. This little book will both greatly encourage Christian disciples and challenge those who do not believe, are skeptics, or simply have questions, to take the step for faith. I especially liked the compendium of references to the incredibly intricate way God’s design is displayed in the small details of the natural world.

The Saga of a Bent Nail Presque
Price range: $3.99 through $11.00“If you’re open to God’s call, and He leads you into missions, you couldn’t be in a better place!”
The Saga of a Bent Nail
Retired missionary, Bob Leland, recounts adventures from his more than thirty years in the mission field in Indonesia (1971-2002). Both he and his wife answered God’s call to missions when they were just children (6 and 8 years old).
Their first posting was to Senggo (church-planting) followed by several changes of duties including house parenting, field administration, Bible College teaching, training missionary appointees, and translating the Greek Lexicon from English into Indonesian.
Bob’s book opens with a moment of deep crisis in the early days of the Senggo mission, is enhanced with Bible verses, black-and-white photos, frank admissions of shortcomings, and a lively sense of humor. The intriguing narrative shows how the couple survived sickness, accidents and unexpected challenges in their ministry. In spite of language and cultural differences, they were encouraged with how the Citak people and their students responded to the Word of God.
Bob and Amber remain active in church work in the U.S. and helpfully offers this memoir as guidance for all Christians, but especially for those contemplating the mission path.

The Ordinance of Tithe and the New Testament Approach
Price range: $3.99 through $8.99The subject of tithe is becoming a big issue in the body of Christ, and it’s almost becoming a hard nut to crack. Unbelievers and a lot of believers have said and are saying so many negative things about it. It has become a subject of discourse all over. This got me thinking and meditating. As a man graced to be a teacher, this book is also a revelation to me too. It is not aimed at judging, rather it is aimed at enlightening the body of Christ. Please do not be in a hurry to conclude at any chapter, do all you can to prayerfully read through and meditate on it. I believe that all that we need to know about tithe and offering is not written here, however, I think it is an eye opener for further revelation on the subject matter. Thanks.

Price range: $3.99 through $25.99“Considering that the Israelites numbered 600,000 men, plus their families and
livestock, plus all the hangers-on accompanying them, we’re looking at a
company of some two to three million people.”
More than a compendium of the Bible, this book is filled with questions about Scripture within both the Old and New Testaments and provides answers that may leave one more curious than ever to find answers to additional questions they might have. Included are genealogies about notable Bible characters like Moses and his family, when they were born, and how surprisingly old in years they were when they died. Chronologies provide a more concise look at Egypt, the plagues, the flood, and other noteworthy events. Dr. Leland includes several “You Are There” narratives, suggesting what it might have been like to have been there observing the event. He also looks at both Testaments and how they speak to the continuous conflict between God/Christ and Satan and how God’s sovereignty overcomes Satan›s opposition every time.
Dr. Leland has painstakingly calculated, in dollars, the staggering amount of gold it took to build the Temple. He has estimated Solomon’s total wealth, including an outline of where it ended up and the value of many items associated with the Temple. With Dr. Leland’s book as a companion, anyone who reads or studies the Bible will hopefully find a deeper understanding of God›s Word. He has found that questions asked, and questions answered, increase faith and bring about greater spiritual growth. The Appendices contain various charts, instructive quotes, and catchy Biblical phrases that hopefully will inspire deeper thought and provide “seed” material for whoever is presenting God’s Word to others. Dr. Leland applies his knowledge and research to many biblical dilemmas in which the curious will delight.
