Is it possible that behind what is taking place in America and the world lies a mystery that goes back to the gods of the ancient world…and that they now have returned?

The Return of the Gods is the most explosive book Jonathan Cahn has ever written. It is so explosive and so revealing that no description here could do it justice. Jonathan Cahn is known for revealing the stunning mysteries, many from ancient times, that lie behind and are playing out in the events of our times. But with The Return of the Gods, Cahn takes this to an entirely new level and dimension. Cahn takes the reader on a journey from an ancient parable, the ancient inscriptions in Sumer, Assyria, and Babylonia that become the puzzle pieces behind what is taking place in our world to this day, specifically in America.

The mystery involves the gods. Who are they? What are they? And is it possible that these beings, whose origins are from ancient times, are the unseen catalysts of modern culture?

The Return of the Gods is not only one of the most explosive books you’ll ever read but also one of the most profound. It will reveal the most stunning secrets and truths behind what is happening before your eyes in America and the nations. You will see things, even in your world, in a whole new light. With such chapters as “The House of Spirits,” “The Avatar,” “The Masters,” “The Deep Magic,” and “The Day of the Goddess,” The Return of the Gods will take readers on a fascinating, unforgettable, and mind-blowing journey that will leave them stunned and with the ability to see the world as they never have before.

Het jy jou geloof verloor of het dit gegroei en verander? Is daar ander maniere om te dink oor waarheid, God, die Bybel en kerk as die tradisionele manier?

Vandag se mense wil nie in allerhande dogmatiese belydenisskrifte vir antwoorde krap nie en die kerk beïndruk hulle beslis nie. Dikwels stap mense weg van hulle jarelange geloof. Dit is nie ’n klein, maklike besluit nie.

Hierdie boek is nie veronderstel om vol antwoorde te wees nie, dit is ’n gids op jou geloofsreis. Dit wys dat daar ’n ander manier is om te dink oor geloof, God en godsdiens. Dit is ’n uitnodiging om vrae te vra en te twyfel, te stoei en teen God se bors te slaan. Want Hy is daar en Hy bestaan en Hy het jou oneindig lief.

The second, revised edition of Healing for Trauma: In The South African Context is an in-depth, comprehensive guide that is grounded in decades-long, first-hand experience in trauma counselling. The second edition has not only been updated and revised, but also contains new chapters, as well as passages on the effect of Covid-19.

Both trauma counsellors and victims will benefit from the accessible, relevant content, which contains general wisdom and spiritual guidance. Each chapter contains valuable guidelines on how to support people who have experienced specific forms of trauma within the South African context.

This updated edition will appeal to a wide variety of groups within the South African society. Although the book has been written from a Christian perspective, the trauma techniques are scientifically sound and can be used by a broader general market. Individual healing has a rippling effect on the community as a whole, and benefits everyone. Yvonne Retief's central message is one of hope: there is healing and hope for victims of trauma.

Uit die Beek gee al vir amper 100 jaar daaglikse geestelike leiding en inspirasie aan generasies van gelowiges, tog bly dit vars en relevant. Dit is steeds geskik vir persoonlike stiltetyd, huisgodsdiens én Bybelstudiegroepe. Vanjaar kom dit weer uit die pen van bekroonde skrywer en predikant Barend Vos.

In 2023 sit ons ons poging voort om die Bybel in vier jaar deur te lees. Ons lees uit Levitikus, Deuteronomium, I en II Konings, ’n klompie Psalms en Spreuke, die eerste deel van Esegiël, asook Daniël, Obadja, Jona, Miga, Nahum, Habakuk en Sefanja. In die Nuwe Testament lees ons uit Lukas, Galasiërs, Kolossense, I en II Petrus en Judas.

Groot momente in die kerkkalender, soos Lydenstyd en die Pase, Pinkster, Koninkrykstyd en Advent word in ag geneem.

How would you cope, suddenly not being able to talk, in a world that only knows how to communicate through speech? This story explores one woman's journey through this uncharted territory and her eventual victory through tenacity and faith.

Kim Ballantine’s profound and poignant description of her remarkable journey with voice loss and cancer is a humbling tribute to the resilience of the human spirit, the love of family and the faithfulness of God. Hot Tea and Apricots speaks directly to the courage center in each of us, calling us to stand in faith and trusting that God who sees what we cannot, is already lighting the path ahead even in the darkest of times. This book is for anyone of any gender, ethnicity or creed who is seeking a pathway to their own courage, through unthinkable pain, towards victory.

As heartbreaking, raw and painfully honest – and at times darkly humorous – as the memoir is, Hot Tea and Apricots is a triumphant story of hope and holding onto life.

While the world appears to be in dire straits, the book of Daniel paints a vivid picture of the many ways God guides our lives and world events, providing us with great reason to hope.

Using the same deep but easy-to-understand style found in his standout seller Revealing Revelation, bestselling author Amir Tsarfati reveals how Daniel’s prophecies—and his unwavering faith amid a contentious culture—provide vital insights for living out these last days with hope and wisdom.

As you explore the deep connection between Daniel and Revelation, you will learn how:

• 2,500 years of future history unfolded exactly the way God said it would, demonstrating how all things are in His hands
• prophetic mysteries in Daniel reveal crucial insights into the signs, timeline, and events of the last days
• God’s ability to use Daniel’s faith in powerful ways shows how He can work through us too

Discovering Daniel reveals how the words, actions, and visions of the prophet Daniel can provide you with purpose and hope in today’s chaotic world, encouraging you to live with confidence in God’s supreme sovereignty and love in the time we have left on this earth.

Daar is geen towerformule om wysheid te bekom nie.

Dit vra ʼn leeftyd se dag-tot-dag-toewyding en soeke na die ware wysheid. Dit vra dat ons met ons oor op die grond sal leef, in afwagting op God se stem wat ons leer hoe om ware wysheid – die wysheid wat van Hom kom – te verkry.

In hierdie 366 dagstukkies neem bekende skrywer Lizette Murray ons hand en lei ons na Hom toe, die bron van Wysheid, en help ons om met wysheid te leef, in ons alledaagse bestaan.

Is your soul weary? Are you worn out by the demands of life, disappointing setbacks, or downcast days? If so, stand under the waterfall of God’s unfailing love and soak in the promise that God will never let you go.

“For God so loved the world…” This verse stops us in our tracks: “Wait, this world? With heartbreakers, hope-snatchers, and dream-dousers?” Yes. And God loves this world so much that he gave us the precious gift of himself. New York Times bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado invites us to dive deep into the heart-stilling, mind-bending, deal-making claim of John 3:16.

In this book, Max will help you:

• Rest in the fact that there is nothing you can do to earn salvation.
• Understand more fully the living hope you have through Jesus’ resurrection.
• Stand in awe of how deep, wide, long, and high God’s love is for you.

Don’t wait another minute to get to know the God who invented time. Don’t live another second without growing close to the God who is life itself. Today, step confidently into the greatest news you’ll ever receive.

Bestselling author John Bevere challenges Christians to take a fresh and honest look at one of the most often misunderstood and avoided truths of the Christian faith—the second coming of Jesus. Through personal testimony, biblical accuracy, and practical guidance, readers will be inspired to live a life of spiritual vigilance as they prepare for the glorious return of our King.

If Jesus were to return tomorrow, would you be ready?

In The King Is Coming, John Bevere discusses why the Second Coming is both relevant and critical for the Christian faith. Other than salvation, it's the second most discussed topic both in the New Testament and by early church fathers in the first three centuries. More than a book about prophecy, this life-changing guide will help believers live fully prepared for Christ's return while transforming the way we love, serve, and glorify God.

Bevere recounts his personal shift from avoiding eschatology to fully recognizing its significance. Witnessing the misuse and division caused by End Time teachings initially led him away from the topic, but through the Holy Spirit's guidance and a deeper study of Scripture, Bevere's heart and life were transformed.

Through extensive references to prophetic Scriptures, the book explores many of the over three-hundred New Testament mentions of Jesus’ return, providing a foundation that will help readers:

• Live in awe of the Creator of the universe who holds time in His hands.
• Grow in holiness, compassion, purpose, and gain a closer relationship with God.
• Live with an eternal outlook, inspiring a sense of hope, urgency, and mission.
• Avoid division by focusing on the transformative power of our reigning King.
• Discover an eschatology that replaces fear and alarmism with true hope.

Through personal testimonies and a close examination of Scripture, John offers readers spiritual truths, insight, encouragement, and practical steps to develop a readiness shaped by faith and obedience. And as with The Awe of God, each chapter will close with his 5 P's: Passage, Point, Ponder, Prayer, and Profession.

The King Is Coming is both a wake-up call, faith builder, and a source of hope for Christian men and women seeking to deepen their relationship with Christ and prepare for His glorious return.

Many Jesus followers are sleepwalking through their Christian lives. They wear a smile, attend church gatherings, and try their best to make it through, but they don’t really expect answered prayers, breakthroughs, or a miraculous change in their situations. Why? Disappointment and disillusionment. The Bible calls this “hope deferred.” What we hoped for did not happen, and we are left with hopes and dreams that are dead.

But remember: we serve the God of resurrection life and revival!

Robert Henderson is the bestselling author of the Courts of Heaven series, and in this latest book he challenges you to pray for miracle reversals in every situation that seems hopeless. Resurrection thunders as a verdict from the Courts of Heaven, for it is God alone who gives life to the dead.

This powerful new book will show you how to:

• Discover the Seven Secrets to seeing dead things revived in your life
• Identify the spirit of sabotage in your life - and cancel its influence
• Make Lazarus Decrees over those situations that Jesus wants to resurrect and revive
• Dismantle the spirit of death—and stop it from impacting every area of your life
• Receive stirring biblical examples of resurrection power released into impossible situations
• Break off the pain of disappointment and position yourself for answered prayer

Resurrection is not a one-time event; it should be the default setting of the Christian life. We are filled with Jesus’ resurrection life and power! We have been commissioned by the resurrected Jesus to see His supernatural miracle power reverse any plan of the enemy that has sought to steal, kill, and destroy.

A. W. Tozer wrote, "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." How we view God makes all the difference in our lives. It informs everything about who we are and who we're becoming.

When you think about God, do you imagine a ruler who demands absolute loyalty, or a coach who expects you to perform to his expectations? Or even a virtual assistant to help when other options are exhausted? This updated edition of the national bestseller Not Forsaken challenges our perception of who God is and points us to a heavenly Father who is not absent or ambivalent, but is available and affectionate, ready to shower us with his approval and love.

No matter what has happened on this side of eternity between you and your earthly dad, Seeing God as a Perfect Father will help you:

• Embrace who God is and discover the truth and beauty of his nature
• Understand that God uniquely created you and loves you unconditionally
• Unlock the chains holding you captive and find freedom in who you are in Christ
• Walk in the fullness, authority, and intimacy a child of God

When we take hold of the truth that our God has spanned heaven and earth to reach us, we will no longer be defined by our past but by the love of a perfect Father. Learn how God wants us to experience his unique, unconditional love and to live in the freedom, abundance, and blessing He freely gives.

It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe—the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor—loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. Whether you've verbalized it yet or not, we all know something's wrong.

Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself.

Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts—it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same. Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

We all long to know God’s personal will for our lives. While we know God’s general guidance for our lives, we also want to discover how God is specifically calling us.

In Surprised by Hope, Tom Wright transformed how millions understood life after death - showing that authentic Christian hope isn't about "going to heaven," but about "heaven coming to earth" in the new creation. Now, in God's Homecoming, world renowned theologian Tom Wright takes this vision a step further.

Through a powerful exploration of Paul's letters and the Hebrew prophets, he reveals that Biblical hope is not limited to individual salvation, but the renewal and reconciliation of all creation. At the heart of this hope is the promise that the Creator God will return to dwell among His people, filling the whole world with His glorious, healing presence.

Wright's in-depth reading of Scripture reframes our understanding of grace, showing that Christianity is not about escaping the world but about God's initiative to restore it. When we stop asking, "How can I get to Heaven?" and instead grasp God's desire to come and dwell with us, in us, and through us, we rediscover the true depth of the Gospel: a story suffused with love, renewal, and divine purpose.

A profound follow-up to Surprised by Hope, God's Homecoming is essential reading for anyone interested in Christian theology, Biblical studies, the afterlife, and the hope of resurrection.

Many of us yearn for “success” – a longing driven by a materialistic and comparison-rife world. How to be (un)successful: An Unlikely Guide to Human Flourishing offers the perfect antidote to the world’s skewed view of success by asking you to have an in-depth look at how you live.

It challenges you to relook at your longings and dreams, choose God’s plan for you instead of your own good ideas, vote for relationships over relevance and focus on depth over meaningless noise. You are invited to find inspiration in Jesus’ life and teachings.

He is calling you to experience the success that can truly satisfy your soul. Choosing to truly follow Jesus might just be the most (un)successful thing you have ever done in your life.

• Provides an answer to the soul-searching question: ""What do you have to show for your life?''
• Offers a redefinition of what success is
• Content is easy to read and understand
• Will also be enjoyed by a younger market

Conquer Your Mountains is a 52-week devotional for Christian professionals who want to make a difference and see life from a higher perspective. It contains contemplative prayers, self-reflection exercises, thought provoking messages and a fictional allegory of a spiritual journey with God.

This book is designed to help the reader understand and engage with the invisible and almighty works of God in their daily lives. Even though the symbol and theme of mountains are used throughout this powerful book, it is not a book about nature but rather a book about the divine nature of God and who we are to Him as his creations.

As the reader engages with each of the 52 weeks in this devotional, a deep transformational work will begin that may positively change the readers’ outlook on God, life, finance, work, relationships, purpose, and everything else.

Why is it so difficult to find the perfect partner? Is God preventing me from finding that special someone for a reason? Is there something wrong with me? Will I ever meet someone—or am I going to remain single forever?

Perhaps as a Christian single, you’ve asked yourself some or all of these questions—and you’re not alone. The good news is that God has a plan for you.

Author David Brühlmann tackles these questions head-on in his honest, heartfelt book, Single for a Season. Through his own challenges as well as the stories of twelve other Christian singles, Brühlmann reveals profound insights so that you may find peace, inspiration, and meaning during this season of your life.

Single doesn’t need to be lonely. Instead of wasting time on what-ifs and should’ve-beens, Single for a Season will help you:

• Dispel myths about the single life—and why you’re still single
• Experience true joy, satisfaction, and contentment in being single
• Find your God-given purpose as a single
• Deepen your relationship with Him
• Take key action steps to change your life right now

By demonstrating how living as a Christian single not only builds up God’s kingdom but also leads to a life of satisfaction and purpose, you’ll discover a new passion for your life, regardless of relationship status. Single for a Season will help you make the shift from the impatience and anxiety that comes from waiting for Mr. or Mrs. Right, to living a life filled with purpose and passion.

From step-by-step exercises and real-life stories that help you implement the concepts presented, to additional resources and insightful questions to consider, this is the perfect book for any single wanting to live a fulfilling life—or for your next Bible study. Start your journey today and make this time one of the most exciting, meaningful seasons of your life.

Are your thoughts holding you captive? I’ll never be good enough. Other people have better lives than I do. God couldn’t really love me. Jennie Allen knows what it’s like to swirl in a spiral of destructive thoughts, but she also knows we don’t have to stay stuck in toxic thinking patterns.

As she discovered in her own life, God built a way for us to escape that downward spiral. Freedom comes when we refuse to be victims to our thoughts and realize we have already been equipped with power from God to fight and win the war for our minds.

In Get Out of Your Head, Jennie inspires and equips us to transform our emotions, our outlook, and even our circumstances by taking control of our thoughts. Our enemy is determined to get in our heads to make us feel helpless, overwhelmed, and incapable of making a difference for the kingdom of God. But when we submit our minds to Christ, the promises and goodness of God flood our lives in remarkable ways.

It starts in your head. And from there, the possibilities are endless.
