A Sure Guide to Heaven is a profound and engaging exploration of the necessity of true conversion, penned by Puritan writer, Joseph Alleine. In this timeless classic, originally published in 1671, Alleine helps readers to discern the nature of genuine conversion while addressing common misconceptions that can lead to spiritual deception.

Near-death experiences (NDEs) are endlessly fascinating for those who long for Heaven or are just curious about the things we cannot see (yet). Lost in all the discussion of NDEs, however, is their long, rich history. Saints and mystics have been visiting Heaven for thousands of years, and here, for the first time, Scott L. Smith provides you with a glimpse of what they’ve been seeing these past two millennia. In this heart-pounding book, you will first learn about the ancient origin of NDEs and seven characteristics that describe them.

We have misunderstood Paul, badly. We have read his words through our own set of assumptions. We need to begin with Paul's world view, to see things the way he saw them. What if "original sin" was never part of Paul's thinking? What if the idea that we are saved by faith in Christ, as Luther argued, was based on a mistranslation of Paul's words and a misunderstanding of Paul's thinking?

In Invitation to a Lavish Feast, Jonathan Brentner takes us on a journey through Scripture showing how Wisdom, personified in Jesus, puts us on a path that leads to the pre-Tribulation Rapture.

With this book, you get to watch Justin as he engages with the most unlikely of conversation partners on the subject of faith.

The evangelical church is hemorrhaging. Over 40 million Americans have dechurched in the last 25 years alone, and multiple generations have been raised to believe the most spiritual thing they can do is follow God by following their heart—right out of the church. Yet, this shift is happening right as society is hitting record levels of loneliness, stress, and anxiety. In The Reason for Church, pastor Brad Edwards connects the dots of our current church crisis and provides compelling reasons to come back.

But here’s the good news: you have the power to break free.

He played video games, excelled athletically and academically, manifested contagious joy and wit — even in suffering — and befriended all those he met. St. Carlo Acutis (1991–2006), already hailed “the greatest saint of the century,” was a Thomas Aquinas in blue jeans. It’s almost unheard of that parents take part in the beatification of their own child. So, too, is it uncommon for parents to miraculously be brought back to the Faith and dedicated Christian living by their child.

Many Christians are scared, worried and anxious about the future. They are in a spiritual fog and are baffled by the many prophecies and events of the end times and what they mean. They really do not know that the Bible has much to say about that future; in fact, one-fourth of the Bible is about prophecy and end time events. This book will provide insight into questions such as the following:

Jesus's command to the disciples to heal the sick and cast out demons was an integral part of the proclamation of the gospel of the Kingdom of God in the early centuries of the church. Did we lose God's gift of healing and deliverance in the church as the centuries rolled on? Can we mesh Christian healing with scientific progress?

Through an understanding of author Bob Sawvelle's meticulous research, Christians can proclaim and demonstrate the good news of God's healing presence today.

In Behold! The Bridegroom Cometh! Paul Bibbs helps everyday believers, as well as knowledgeable eschatology students, to discover the readiness associated with the Bride of Christ. In the book of Matthew, Jesus states those who were ready went with Him into the marriage. In Revelation, John states the Lamb's wife made herself ready. Paul's goal is to define what it means to be ready and show that it takes more than just knowing Jesus as Savior to participate in the rapture.

Sleep paralysis occurs when a person, either while falling asleep or upon awakening, is unable to move—even though they’re fully aware. This often comes with frightening hallucinations and has been called many names worldwide, such as “Old Hag Syndrome” in the West. Some attribute it to mysterious entities known as “Shadow People” or “Hat Man,” while others believe demons or other malevolent spirits are responsible. It’s also thought that certain cases of “alien abductions” or incubus/succubus attacks could actually be severe sleep paralysis episodes.

Prophets occupy a unique and exalted position in the biblical narrative, acting as divine messengers who bridge the gap between God and humanity. Their role is both transcendent and terrestrial, encompassing the celestial responsibility of conveying God's will and the earthly challenge of living out that will in a world rife with distractions and deceit. In the annals of prophetic history, we encounter a tapestry of individuals, each distinct in personality and circumstance, yet unified by the sacred charge to speak truth to power and call people back to the heart of God.
