The incredible true story about a Galilean stonemason who changed the course of the world forever.

Beautifully told through the eyewitness accounts of those who knew him best.

This real-life story will never leave you.

This is the incredible true story of a Galilean stonemason who changed the course of the world forever.

He lived and died over 2,000 years ago, fulfilling expectations that existed long before his birth.

His birth had been mystically foretold by astrologers for hundreds of years, yet the rulers of his day dreaded his coming.

This humble builder-teacher became a magnet for the poor and down trodden, a symbol of love and mercy, who transformed the lives and restored the health and purpose in all who encountered him.

The local elite and governing rulers eventually tortured him and put him to death in the most violent and public of ways. Yet that was only the beginning...

In the years since, billions of people have dedicated their lives to this man and have testified to his divinity and truth.

To others, he is little more than another rebel who was killed by one of the most brutal empires in human history.

How we each respond to this story dictates the course of our lives. And it all rests on the great mystery that occurred at the end of his life - a supernatural event that he had predicted with utter clarity.

Did this humble man tell the truth?

Could one man really be the focal point of the universe?

Read on to find out, and get ready to make up your own mind.

Wherever this journey takes you, this is arguably:

THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD.

100 jaar van genade. 100 jaar se getroue lesers. Uit die Beek gee daaglikse geestelike leiding en inspirasie. Hierdie feesuitgawe is geskik vir persoonlike stiltetyd, huisgodsdiens én Bybelstudiegroepe. Vanjaar kom dit weer uit die pen van bekroonde skrywer en predikant Barend Vos. In 2025 vertoef ons by elke Bybelboek, terwyl ons steeds groot momente in die kerkkalender, soos Lydenstyd en die Pase, Pinkster, Koninkrykstyd en Advent in ag neem.

Die boek Spreuke is 'n skatkis van geestelike en praktiese wysheid wat ons toerus om ons beste lewe te lei. Kennis is belangrik, maar as dit nie in aksie omgeskakel word nie, slaag dit nie daarin om ons lewe te verander nie.

Dit is belangrik om 'n deurdagte en praktiese begrip van die sewe fundamentele beginsels in die boek Spreuke te verkry:

• Wysheid
• Begrip
• Versigtigheid
• Kennis
• Onderskeidingsvermoë
• Onderskeiding
• Vrees van die Here

As ons hierdie eienskappe wil besit, moet ons 'n verbintenis maak tot 'n dieper begrip en implementering van hierdie waardes in ons daaglikse lewe.

Met inspirerende vrae om deurdagte refleksie te bevorder, sal Op soek na wysheid jou die fundamentele beginsels leer en God se hulp verseker om dit te beoefen.

Die boek werk volledig deur al die hoofstukke van Spreuke.

Force for Good is a bold and refreshingly balanced exploration of positive masculinity, written to inspire men to become powerful forces for good in a world that desperately needs them to step into this role. The book challenges the extremes that often define the discourse around masculinity – aggressive dominance on one side and passive disengagement on the other. It offers a vision of true and healthy masculinity that is both strong and gentle, fierce and safe, confident and humble.

At its core is the conviction that men are made to be powerful forces, but only in service of what is good. Power, often misunderstood or negatively viewed, is essential. Without it, a man cannot fulfil his potential or meet the needs of those who depend on him. Power itself is neutral; how it is used determines whether it becomes a force for good or harm.

The book is divided into three parts – Being Man, Becoming a Force, and Doing Good – and builds a compelling case for the value of healthy masculinity. It explores the internal and external battles men face, the journey from boyhood to manhood, and the sacred responsibility to grow in strength and purpose. Force for Good calls men to action, not against others but for the good of others. It is a timely, courageous invitation to be all that a man was made to be, because such a man will be a Force for Good.

Change is inevitable. And sometimes it's confusing and difficult, even when it's good. We can't keep change from coming, but we can allow it to transform us rather than derail us by facing it and embracing it through the lens of God's unchanging promises to us.

We've all heard the saying, “The only constant is change.” Sometimes the changes we face, both expected and unexpected, can make our lives feel ungrounded and unsteady. And when we react to change with fear, an opportunity for growth can turn into overwhelming anxiety that locks us into situations, relationships, and ways of thinking and being that prevent us from living in the fullness of who we truly are in Christ.

Beloved Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer wants us to know that even when we feel like the ground beneath our feet is shifting, we can stand firm on the promise of God's Word that He will see us through. With her signature insight and timeless wisdom, Joyce shows us how to align our emotional reactions to changes with the truth of God's promise that He will work all changes for good in our lives, even the most painful and difficult ones. In TheCourage to Change, you will learn how to:

• Embrace change as a necessary part of growth
• Replace a mindset of fear with a mindset of opportunity
• And live fully within the uncertainty of change while maintaining peace.

When Demi-Leigh Tebow surrendered her insecurities, she found her confidence in what truly mattered: who God said she was. In Knowing Who You Are Because of Who God Is, the former Miss Universe and Miss South Africa brings you a powerful 100-day devotional to strengthen your faith and trust in God and help you find confidence in what truly matters: knowing who you are because of who He is.

Through personal stories, biblical teachings, and daily prayer, Demi encourages you to turn to God for your confidence and security rather than relying on external factors like appearance, success, or the opinions of others. As Demi says, "true self-worth comes from recognizing who God says you are."

This devotional will help you let go of insecurities and build resilient faith. With Demi's guidance, you'll cultivate unbreakable confidence in God's love and His plan for your life. "Blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him" (Jeremiah 17:7).

Uit die Beek is net oor 'n 100 jaar oud. In hierdie uitgawe begin ons ons reis by Genesis. Ons lees in die Ou Testament ook uit Eksodus, Rut, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, Ester, Psalms, Spreuke, Prediker en Jesaja. In die Nuwe Testament lees ons uit Markus, 1 Korintiërs, Filippense, 1 Tessalonisense, 2 Tessalonisense, 1 Timoteus en 2 Timoteus. Soos gewoonlik word die belangrikste seisoene van die kerkjaar in ag geneem. Mag jy, liewe leser, vanjaar opnuut hoor dat jy aan Jesus Christus behoort.

Understanding God's Unbreakable Covenant with His People and Their Land

For centuries, questions have lingered both within and outside the church: Is modern Israel connected to the Israel of the Old Testament? Do God’s past promises to Israel still apply now? And what does this mean for all Christians today?

The Israel Decree provides compelling answers to these questions and more by meticulously tracing the historical, legal, and scriptural foundations of Israel's God-promised right to the land. Writing with clarity and commitment to biblical truth, bestselling author and native Israeli Amir Tsarfati helps you:

• understand how today’s Israel is a continuation of the ancient biblical nation, fulfilling a divine promise made millennia ago
• live with greater expectancy and hope in light of what Bible prophecy says about the rapture and tribulation
• be encouraged by God’s wonderful character as you see it on display in the ways He cares for Israel—and for you

As you grow in your understanding of God’s steadfast promise to both bless Israel and to bless the world through Israel, you will be inspired by His wonder-working power and equipped to carry out your unique role in His plan with hope and confidence.

Bekommernis, twyfel, verwarring, depressie, woede en gevoelens van veroordeling is alles aanvalle op die gemoed. Bekende outeur Joyce Meyer sal jou help om hierdie belangrike gevegte te wen. In hierdie opgedateerde uitgawe leer Joyce ons hoe om ons gedagtes te fokus op die manier waarop God dink. Sy deel persoonlike stories uit haar eie lewe, saam met Bybelse waarhede en aanmoediging om jou te help om doelgerig te dink, die gevegte in jou gedagtes te wen en 'n vreugdevolle lewe te begin.

Do you like the direction your decisions are taking you?

Most of us make choices we regret—choices that have moved our lives in a direction we don't want to go. But you have the ability to break the cycle of bad decisions and form better habits.

Drawing on Scripture, story, and the latest psychological research into human behavior, pastor Craig Groeschel reveals the power of "pre-deciding"—the key to consistently making choices that will lead you out of a downward spiral and into the joy and freedom God has for you.

With thought-provoking exercises and questions for reflection, Think Ahead will help you:

• Understand the science behind your decision-making habits.
• Overcome decision fatigue and debilitating fears.
• Diminish the role of emotions in decision-making.
• See how your small choices shape the kind of person you become.

For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:13-14

From the bestselling author of Big Panda and Tiny Dragon comes a new adventure featuring a wise cat, a curious kitten, and the Zen wisdom they uncover on their journey together.

This is the tale of a cat wise in the ways of zen who hears of a solitary ancient pine, deep in a maple forest, under which infinite wisdom may be found. So begins a journey of discovery. Along the way he meets a vivid cast of animals: from an anxious monkey and a tortoise tired of life, to a tiger struggling with anger, a confused wolf cub and a covetous crow.

Each has stories to tell and lessons to share.

But after a surprise encounter with a playful kitten, the cat questions everything . . .

He will give you a hope that doesn't fade and he will make each day feel like the gift from God that it truly is. Explore this New Testament, and as you turn each page, you will find your invitation to find real hope and peace in life through a relationship with Jesus.

The CSB The Invitation New Testament features the highly reliable, highly readable text of the Christian Standard Bible (CSB), which stays as literal as possible to the Bible’s original meaning without sacrificing clarity. The CSB’s optimal blend of accuracy and readability makes Scripture more moving, more memorable, and more motivating to read and share with others.

Recently voices have been heard saying that the Bible is not literally God's word, but rather the word of God in ordinary Human language. Sometimes people say that the Bible is nothing more than words about God.

Izak Spangenberg attempts to formulate a contemporary perspective on the Bible. He shows that the Bible is a book that can greatly assist us in our reflections on God and in our quest for meaning in life. If we use it wisely, it can indeed serve as a guide.

Essentially, however, in the author's opinion, the Bible is not intended as a book of law with which we are to judge other people.

Leaders cannot embark on the leadership journey alone. They need wisdom, perspective, insight, and love. This book illustrates in a practical way how timeless principles and values remain applicable in the unforgiving business world and if these values form the foundation of a business's culture, the chance for sustainable success is much greater. This book also includes case studies that depict the advantages of principled, value-based leadership.

This beautiful pocket self-help book teaches us to notice three-second glimmers of joy every day, to build resilience and deal with difficult times.

In difficult times it's easy to get lost in the darkness – but this beautiful pocket self-help book gives us the tools to find three-second glimmers of joy every day, to build our resilience and keep us going.

Did you just taste something delicious? That was a glimmer. Notice the way the light slanted in through the window? That was a glimmer.

Glimmers are easy to miss as they’re so brief and fleeting, but they can help your mood shift, and lift. Finding them – uncovering them on the commute, or while doing the same-old daily routine – is an art and a skill. Looking for glimmers is a recognized mental health practice to enable you to deal with the darkest days.

In this book, 12 thematic chapters each hold 30 or 31 beautiful glimmers plus two aligned alternatives, amounting to one entry for every day of the year – and more than 1,000 glimmers. Learn to notice micro-moments of joy such as putting on a pair of new socks, stroking a purring cat, popping a cork, walking up a hill and looking back at how far you've come, finishing a jar, watching a rainbow brighten, sinking your hands into earth, being told "no rush", reviving a dying fire, and hundreds more.

With beautiful line-drawn illustrations, exercises to help you uncover more joy, and reflections on the history and effects of glimmers, this fun, fresh book is small enough to pop in your bag – but big enough to expand your life.

An intimate, vulnerable and, compassionate conversation about the pain of rejection, filled with practical, biblical guidance to heal and move on with personal stories from beloved Bible teacher Joyce Meyer, Ginger Stache, and other women who have risen from the ashes of loss.
 
In this era of epidemic loneliness, widely beloved Bible teacher Joyce Meyer and her partner in ministry Ginger Stache offer a vulnerable, intimate, and compassionate conversation about the shame and the pain of rejection and the pathway to healing.
 
We live in a time of overwhelming loneliness and disconnection. At least one in four Americans today are living in estrangement from a family member, and over 50% of us experience periods of disconnection from close relatives. No matter who we are, the sting of rejection touches us. As a child, you may have experienced bullying or even a parent or sibling who failed to acknowledge your value and love you as you needed to be loved. As we grow older, the rejections we experience pile upon one another—a boss who offers constant criticism, a spouse who walks away and leaves us devastated, a friend who ditches us when life gets tough.
 
Rejection is a common denominator of the human experience, and many of us develop into people who view the world through the lens of rejection as our pain causes us to burrow further into isolation, disappointment, and sadness. Here, through Joyce’s personal story of abuse and abandonment and Ginger’s journey of shock and betrayal in marriage, you will find community in the fact that you are not alone, as well as hope for the dawning of new possibilities.
 
In this book, Joyce Meyer and Ginger Stache are determined to banish the stigma of rejection by leading readers to the healing balm of God’s unconditional love. Through facing our pain head-on, learning to embrace the truth of our absolute acceptance in Christ, and understanding how others may react to us and to the world out of their own lens of rejection, we can grow in confidence, develop healthy relationships, and find lasting acceptance.

This book also contains study questions with each chapter, perfect for group study or individual reflection.
