A compelling true story of the reality of undercover police work
For over 20 years, Joe Carter has worked for the police as an
undercover cop. Travelling the globe on different passports,
fraternising with thieves and international drugs and arms dealers,
working alongside dangerous criminals, Carter always knew his life
would come crashing down around him at any point. His story is a
gripping account of the secret, solitary work of an undercover
officer and the many 'sticky' situations he found himself in, as
well as the moving confession of the difficulty in reconciling his
two identities with his family life. This book explores the
resilience needed to lead a double life, the thrilling challenge of
working with the biggest criminals in Britain, and maintaining a
sense of justice through the many adventures he encounters.
A Pew Study reports that only 2% of America's twelve million
bloggers claim "religion, spirituality or faith" as their main
topic. This leaves a great mission field in cyberspace, say
contributors to The New Media Frontier, because the latest forms of
communication present so many opportunities to promote the cause of
Christ in other topics and fields. Before blindly jumping in,
however, Christians need to weigh the possibilities against the
consequences, and then proceed with the practical discernment and
grace this book provides.
With a foreword by national radio host Hugh Hewitt-who has been

their reach to a lost world. By stressing the urgency for Christian
involvement, unearthing the dangers, and advising readers on how to
use this media with different audiences, this book equips believers
to advance, demonstrate, and utilize the Christian worldview in
this exciting realm.

Uses Jesus' words and actions found in the New Testament to
systematically evaluate his rhetorical stylings, drawing real
lessons from his teachings that today's readers can employ.
Jesus of Nazareth never wrote a book, held political office, or
wielded a sword. He never gained sway with the mighty or
influential. He never took up arms against the governing powers in
Rome. He was a lower-class worker who died an excruciating death at
the age of thirty-three. Yet, in spite of all odds-obscurity,
powerlessness, and execution-his words revolutionized human
history.
How to Argue Like Jesus examines the life and words of Jesus and
describes the various ways in which he sought-through the spoken
word, his life, and his disciples-to reach others with his message.
The authors then pull some very simple rhetorical lessons from
Jesus' life that readers can use today.
Both Christian and non-Christian leaders in just about any field
can improve their ability to communicate effectively by studying
the words and methods of history's greatest communicator.
