Unveiling Empire aims to be a fresh look, with new insights and
interpretations, at the apocalyptic visions described in The Book
of Revelation.'
Nehemiah's life continues to serve as a significant model for
leaders in the 21st century, even though he lived and served over
2500 years ago. From his beginnings as a cupbearer to the king to
taking charge of rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem, he teaches us a
remarkably uncommon thing--how to lead as a servant. In Becoming
Nehemiah, David McKenna invites the reader to join this remarkable
man of God on a journey of leadership that matches the trials and
challenges leaders face today. Through Nehemiah's story, one
recognizes the difficult task of balancing the promises of biblical
leadership with the premises of secular leadership and learns how
Nehemiah was able to serve with full integrity in both of these
settings. Becoming Nehemiah will give pastors, church leaders,
teachers, business professionals, or leaders of any kind compelling
insights and practical advice as they begin their own journey to
become servants who lead with significance. Becoming Nehemiah
offers: Information and insight into the life of Nehemiah Practical
exercises at the end of each chapter to assist in developing one's
own journey regardless of the level of position he or she holds
Scripture references, illustrations, and relevant examples that
help to bring Nehemiah's story into the 21st century
This is a facsimile of the small 1540 book of Myles Coverdale as it was
reprinted in modern spelling in 1844. Coverdale was a close associate
of William Tyndale, and co-translator of the 1537 Matthew Bible with
Tyndale. His English is remarkably modern compared to other writers of
his period and readers will be pleased by how easy he is to understand.
Coverdale proceeds chronologically, expounding the sequence of events
as set forth in the four Gospels from the Passion of Christ through to
Pentecost, in short sections that are perfect for daily devotional
reading. They would also serve well for a series of sermons. The first
part of each section is a Scripture reading comprised of a passage or
combination of passages from the Gospels. The second part expounds the
Scriptures.
The "lessons" in Coverdale's book contain the pure preaching of Christ
- "gathered," as Coverdale wrote, "out of the four Evangelists, with a
plain exposition of the same." Poetic, profound, and anchored to the
Word of God as it was most purely revealed in the early Reformation,
Coverdale's Fruitful Lessons reach up to heaven itself.
This facsimile book is complete, without any missing pages, and each
page has received special attention so that there are no imperfections
to detract from the reading experience.
In The Interpersonal Metafunction in 1 Corinthians 1-4, James D.
Dvorak offers a linguistic-critical discourse analysis of 1 Cor 1-4
utilizing Appraisal Theory, a model rooted in the modern
sociolinguistic paradigm known as Systemic-Functional Linguistics.
This work is concerned primarily with the interpersonal meanings
encoded in the text and how they pertain to the act of
resocialization. Dvorak pays particular attention to the
linguistics of appraisal in Paul's language to determine the values
with which Paul expects believers in Christ to align. This book
will be of great value to biblical scholars and students with
interests in biblical Greek, functional linguistics, appraisal
theory, hermeneutics, exegesis, and 1 Corinthians.
