Until the church recognizes the real face of the occult, it cannot serve as a source of hope and love.Its tentacles have infiltrated the very fiber of our day-to-day existence. Its symbols adorn our buildings, our currency, and the clothes and jewelry we lay upon our bodies. Its followers are legion, some of them blind to their own devotion while others pour out effort and intellect toward a broader understanding of the divine.
It is the occult, and it dominates the world's faith mind-set. Jeff Harshbarger and his friends know about occult practices. Jeff left his life of Satanism after two unsuccessful suicide attempts and an offer to become his group's first human sacrifice.
"Dancing with the Devil" tells the true stories of Jeff and others who have walked various paths of the occult. Each author's account of his or her experience with the occult is introduced by Jeff as he ties their stories together, weaving a tapestry that, by the book's close, shows the fabric of an occultist's real identity. Armed with stable faith and the sure love of Christ, they are stepping out to share a true look into the heart, mind, and soul of the occult and its followers.

"Larson's Book of Spiritual Warfare" is a window into a world many Christians have no idea exists. An expert on the occult, cults and supernatural phenomena, Bob Larson provides a comprehensive guide to the motivating factors of much of the deviant behavior occuring in society today.

New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge offers readers a breathtaking look into God's promise for a new heaven and a new earth.This revolutionary book about our future is based on the simple idea that, according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home--the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the gospel of Matthew, the next chapter of our story begins with "the renewal of all things," by which he means the earth we love in all its beauty, our own selves, and the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, laughter and all that we hold dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new."More than anything else, how you envision your future shapes your current experience. If you knew that God was going to restore your life and everything you love any day; if you believed a great and glorious goodness was coming to you--not in a vague heaven but right here on this earth--you would have a hope to see you through anything, an anchor for your soul, "an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God" (Hebrews 6:19).Most Christians (most people for that matter) fail to look forward to their future because their view of heaven is vague, religious, and frankly boring. Hope begins when we understand that for the believer nothing is lost. Heaven is not a life in the clouds; it is not endless harp-strumming or worship-singing. Rather, the life we long for, the paradise Adam and Eve knew, is precisely the life that is coming to us. And that life is coming soon.

A true story of freedom and miraculous healing as a Muslim girl finds faith in Christ When Gulshan Esther, a devout Muslim girl, was six months old, typhoid left her a cripple. Her loving father took her from Pakistan to England to find a cure, but the only hope the British specialist could offer was prayer. Gulshan and her father made pilgrimage to Mecca and begged Allah for healing, but it was not until her father's untimely death that Gulshan began to receive an answer. In her grief she wanted to die, but as she called out to God, for the first time in her life she sensed she was being heard. She heard a low, gentle voice say, "I won't let you die. I will keep you alive"I am Jesus, son of Mary." As Gulshan began reading the Quran, her interest in Jesus grew, until one amazing night he appeared to her in her bedroom in a blaze of light. He restored her crippled arm and leg and taught her The Lord's Prayer. He told her to go to his people-now her people-and tell them what he had done. Since that time, and to this day, she has been a joyous, obedient disciple of Christ. The Torn Veil is an amazing story of faith and determination. This moving autobiography was first published in 1984 and has sold over 200,000 copies worldwide.

Whatever works for you. Whether you are already a follower of Jesus, or you are just exploring Who He is and what He does, I pray these little blessings will help you."

The Journey to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose, and Make a Difference

The journey toward deeper faith and spiritual maturity is a lifelong pursuit, with plenty of stops and bumps along the way. Inevitably, there comes a point when Christians--new believers and veterans in the faith alike--find themselves asking,

"What do I do next? How do I stay motivated to grow deeper in my relationship with God when I feel complacent, intimidated, or confused? What can I do to get back on track when I hit a spiritual rut?" In Now What?, Chris Hodges reveals the four steps to spiritual maturity: knowing God, finding freedom, discovering purpose, and making a difference. He shows how they are part of both a linear path and a cycle that Christians continue returning to at increasingly deeper levels as they grow. Accessible and clear, concise and profound, Now What? Is a trail guide leading to a deeper and more intimate relationship with the Father and the joy that comes from the journey.

Hearing God is not something you do. Hearing God is someone you are. As believers in Jesus Christ, we naturally want to know how we can hear God's voice. Does God speak? Is He speaking to me? The good news is, yes, He is speaking. And like a radio host broadcasting His voice into the airwaves, God speaks all the time. The question is, are we tuned into the right frequency? In Frequency, Robert Morris reveals a groundbreaking, Bible-based teaching about hearing God's voice. God communicates with us in multiple ways, whether through the Bible, through circumstances, or even through a whisper. Robert Morris demonstrates how we can mature from hearing His voice as sheep to hearing it as His friend to even hearing it as a prophet. When we begin to understand the general and specific ways God speaks to us, then we can begin to cultivate a life of deeper connection with our Creator. In Frequency, readers will...* Gain a better understanding of how to recognize God's voice * Value the voice of the Lord * Discern the general voice of God from the specific voice of God * Grow in their relationship with the Lord by developing consistent time with His Word * Enjoy drawing closer to their Creator Frequency will demystify the process of hearing God and take you to a new level in your faith. God is speaking. Are you listening?
