Paid in Full, a riveting account of Jesus' final hours, takes you
on a journey that does just that. It powerfully explains the
significance--for every person ever born--of each step Jesus
willingly took along the way of His suffering, His death, and His
resurrection. Noted Bible teacher Rick Renner draws a brilliant
backdrop to the passion of Jesus Christ, interjecting fresh
insights into the human and divine drama that took place in
Jerusalem more than 2,000 years ago.
The writers of the Bible speak to us with their words, and the Bible's characters speak to us with their lives. Their powerful examples reveal the spiritual inspiration and brilliant insight the human writers and the divine Writer intended. Times, cultures, traditions, and societal values may change from century to century, but human nature does not.
We value people whose words and actions reflect their true thoughts and intentions. People of integrity purposely integrate their own thoughts, words, and behaviors. They work at making their own hearts and minds, thoughts and ideas consistent with the godly character portrayed in Scripture.
These twenty-five Bible personalities in Choose Your Character cultivate a desire to deepen the commitment to live a life of unfailing integrity. Their examples teach us how to increase our personal satisfaction and effectiveness while strengthening our ability to influence others.

This is Laurence Gardner's final book, written shortly before his
death in 2010 and is the accompanying book to his Origin of God
(published 2011 by dash house publishing). Together with Origin of
God, this book outlines an irrefutable and searing indictment of
conventional belief and exposes the evils and absurdities
perpetuated over the millenia in the name of Christianity. In
Revelation of the Devil, Laurence Gardner traces the history of the
Devil, from its roots in Mesopotamia and the Old Testament all the
way up to the modern world of today. Travelling through the New
Testament, as well as the Koran, and then passing in turn through
the Inquisitions, the Reformation and the Enlightenment, he unmasks
what he has called "the myth of evil and the conspiracy of Satan."
For nearly 2,000 years a supernatural entity known as the Devil has
been held responsible by Church authorities for bringing sin and
wickedness into the world. Throughout this period, the Devil has
been portrayed as a constant protagonist of evil, although his
origin remains a mystery and his personality has undergone many
interpretive changes, prompting questions such as: If God is all
good and all powerful, then why does evil exist? How can it exist?
If God created everything, then where did the Devil come from? If
the Devil exists, then why does he not feature in any pre-Christian
document? Revelation of the Devil follows the Devil's sinister
history, in the manner of a biography, from his scriptural
introduction to the dark satanic cults of the present day. In a
strict chronological progression, we experience the mood of each
successive era as the Devil's image was constantly manipulated to
suit the changing motives of his creators in their bid for
threat-driven clerical control.
This book examines how religion and related beliefs have varied
impacts on the needs and perceptions of practitioners, service
users, and the support networks available to them. The authors
argue that social workers need to understand these phenomena, so
that they can become more confident in challenging discriminatory
and oppressive practices. The centrality of religion and associated
beliefs in the lives of many is emphasised, as are their
potentially liberating (and potentially negative) impacts. In line
with the "Social Work in Practice" series style, the book allows
readers to explore issues in depth. It focuses on knowledge
transmission, and the encouragement of critical reflection on
practice. Each chapter is built around 'real-life' case scenarios
using a problem-based learning approach. This book is the first to
deal with social work and religion so comprehensively and will
therefore be essential reading for social work students, as well as
practitioners in a range of areas, social work academics and
researchers in the UK and beyond.
