Do you sometimes wonder what to pray about? Do you long for a richer,
deeper prayer life? In this pocket-sized devotional, Angus Buchan will
be your prayer partner as you speak with Jesus through 365 short,
powerful and faith-filled prayers. A key Scripture verse accompanies
each prayer to inspire a deeper prayer life based on God’s Word while a
pithy quote gives you something to ponder. Also included are short yet
powerful prompts, encouraging you to live out each day’s reading.
Whatever you need – whether patience, peace, joy or God’s loving grace
– Pocket Prayers for Every Day will guide you as you open up your heart
to God, developing a deeper, more intimate relationship with Him. Be
inspired to walk closer to your Savior as you talk to Him and
experience His comfort, love and grace.
This is a sequel to two highly successful collections of short
songs ("Come All You People" and "There Is One Among Us") for use
in worship. Here the net is thrown wider with material from
AIDs-ridden communities in the developing world side by side with
recent products from the Wild Goose Resource Group. It is an ideal
collection for small choirs, social justice enthusiasts,
multiculturalists and all who regard themselves a global Christian.
How to Fight the Good Fight As you read this book, you will gain
wisdom, discernment and understanding. Bill and Pam share their
life experiences that will equip you. Earth is a battle field
between seen and unseen forces of good and evil. The evil
supernatural is real and can only be dealt with in a spiritual way.
As Hosea, the biblical writer stated, "My people are destroyed from
lack of knowledge" (Hosea 4:6). The Malones no longer want to see
God's people losing battles with supernatural evil. This book is
your guide to becoming the "overcomer" God created you to be.

By their very nature, most newspaper columns and editorials are
ephemeral. They are often written in haste to meet a deadline, and
what excites interest today may elicit only yawns tomorrow or the
next day. This is especially true of community newspapers, whose
focus is on matters of interest to a smaller, parochial readership.
This book is a collection of pieces that step outside that mold.
The author's broad education (four degrees, including a Ph.D. and a
J.D.) and wide range of work experiences (college professor,
probation officer, prosecuting attorney, professional magician,
novelist, editor, publisher, and grocery-store sackboy, to name a
few) have provided him with a unusual perspective from which to
observe and comment on the problems and pleasures of being a
sentient being on Planet Earth in the twenty-first century-and on
how we got to this point in human history. Inspired by the example
and encouragement of the newspaper editor who gave him his first
job in journalism, the author has inflicted upon the readers of
several newspapers his reflections on a broad and eclectic range of
subjects, from religious and racial intolerance to UFO "sightings"
and the beauty of a toad's eye. Throughout it all, the author has
been motivated by one unvarying purpose-to make his readers think.
Not just about last week's school board meeting or next month's
municipal elections, but about ideas and issues with a shelf-life
longer than that of ripe tomatoes in your grocer's produce
department. Here, then, are half a hundred of those pieces, rescued
from dusty newspaper "morgues" and offered to a broader audience
than the unsuspecting subscribers to whom they were originally
addressed. The author will be pleased if you read them, but he will
have failed in his purpose unless reading them makes you think.
