How to Tell the Truth is the story of Preston Perry’s path toward God. A hope-filled apologetics and evangelism book.

In this compelling and gripping book, Preston tells the story of how God chased him. The streets of Chicago were his home, and it was there that he encountered all sorts of people who had their own versions of the truth—from Jehovah Witnesses to Mormons to Hebrew Israelites. That is where Preston discovered not only the importance of the truth but how to tell the truth in a way that speaks to someone’s heart. Sharing our faith is not about winning arguments; it’s about winning hearts. And the way we do that is by engaging with friends, neighbours, and coworkers around us about our beliefs with truth, dignity, and respect.

With How to Tell the Truth, you will:

• Be inspired by Preston’s own incredible story about how God transformed his life forever by showing him the very heart of what it means to be a Christian.
• Be equipped with practical and easy ways to reach your friends and your neighbours with the truth of the gospel with kindness and love.
• Be challenged to respond to God’s call to be bold. Eternity is at stake.

This book is like no other book you’ve read. Preston’s own story, including his successes and failures, is woven throughout the book to help us see how urgent our task is—and how powerful our God is.

Delve into the complex history of Herod the Great—his rise to power and ultimate fall in pursuit to be the "King of the Jews." Under a flourishing yet tumultuous background of Jerusalem, consider Mary of Nazareth's place under Herod's rule and the promise of a Messiah to free her people. Kathie Lee Gifford with Bryan M. Litfin, Ph.D. deftly weave a truthful historical narrative full of accurate details and sweeping prose that ushers in the true King and glorifies God's powerful plan to bring a savior into the world through unlikely means. A coda between the authors, full of honest revelation and insightful meaning, follows each chapter for added in-depth reading.

The first installment in the Ancient Evil, Living Hope series, Herod and Mary begins with the tragic life of King Herod—Christianity's first true persecutor. As an impressionable boy, he is forever marked by the raw power of Rome. Throughout the course of Herod's career, he gains power, fame, and riches beyond belief. Yet murderous intrigues stalk this man—and infect his own dark soul.

Under the rule of King Herod, Jerusalem becomes a prominent city of wealth and prosperity, but Mary saw the struggle of her people under a tyrant. Like all Jewish women, she knew the promises of Torah and longed for a deliverer. But no one could have prepared her for what the angel of God revealed: that the Messiah wouldn't arrive with the blaring of trumpets, the clash of arms, or the fanfare of a mighty host. He would arrive as an infant within her own womb. The light of the world was born in a cave: not a king who maims and destroys, but the gentle King of the Jews.

This riveting narrative nonfiction work reveals deep insight to how Herod came to power, how corruption and an ancient evil threatened the stability of a nation, and how a teenage Mary was called to traverse these obstacles to bring the Savior, Jesus, our living hope, into the world.

The average person spends twenty-six years of their life sleeping.

• How do I interpret my dreams?
• Do nightmares have any meaning?

Embark on a transformative journey to unlock hidden treasures of wisdom by discovering God's voice in your dreams. With this expansive teaching on one of the prevalent ways God speaks, readers will discover confidence in their purpose, and a strengthened relationship with God.

Throughout the Bible we read of people being chosen to serve God, but what does it actually mean to be chosen? Being chosen by Jesus has beautiful and far-reaching implications – although it says even more about the Chooser than the one being chosen. We are loved because He is love. We are saved because He is merciful. We belong to the family of God because Jesus invites us, making the Bible and all its promises as true for us today as it was for God’s chosen people.

With over 300 000 copies sold, What Does It Mean to Be Chosen? is the official 8-week companion Bible study to season 1 of The Chosen, the groundbreaking television series about the life of Jesus. It parallels each episode to connect you to the Bible in a brand-new way and offers:

• A deeper look at Isaiah 43 and its fulfillment in Jesus and the lives of His followers.
• Script excerpts, quotes and illustrations from the television series.
• Guiding questions for groups or individuals.

Based on the viral sermon series, Crazy Faith is an invitation to stop watching the life of faith from the sidelines.

All too often we think that the great days of God’s power and wonder are behind us. Sure, there are some stories of God’s people doing mighty things, but those were in the ancient world, right? But think about Abraham, Moses, Esther, David, and Mary. They didn’t know they were living in “Bible times.” They were just living in “times.” Times like you’re living in today.

Somewhere along the way, they had the faith to live their lives out on the limb, to do something that seemed impossible, to trust God with something that was by all rational accounts unlikely to happen, something we might call crazy.

This type of faith is for today, and God is looking for people with big faith to do big things. Instead of living with baby faith, lazy faith, or hazy faith, it’s time to step into a life of crazy faith! It’s time to step out of excuses and fear and into the big, bold future that God has for you.
