A fresh, clear, joyful guide for parents on how to teach their children to love
God with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength.
GIVE THEM JESUS aims to help parents not simply add to their children's stockpile of
knowledge, but to cultivate children-disciples who are able to display Christ-likeness in
every situation. Parents are the ones primarily responsible for opening up the
Scriptures to help their children understand God, the world, and themselves. The family
is the divinely appointed discipleship program; the home is first and foremost a place of
worship. The introduction of the book discusses the four vital components of family
worship: teach, treasure, sing, and pray, and offers practical suggestions for beginning
and prioritizing family worship in the rough and tumble of life.
Subsequent chapters guide parents to a deeper understanding of the core truths of the
historic Christian faith, as summarized in the Apostles' Creed, arming them with
appropriate language, helpful illustrations, and relevant object lessons, so that in the
end they will be better prepared to pass these truths on to their children.
GIVE THEM JESUS equips parents to prepare their children to leave home and go out
into the world as faithful participants in the great gospel story. "Never stop telling the
gospel story to your kids," Thornton says. "Give your children Jesus. Again. And again.
And again. And you'll see them walk in the truth."
In the days we are living in the name and blood of Jesus are
becoming increasingly more important. The Church needs to have a

called to do. In this book you will learn what the name of Jesus
can do when spoken by faith. Also the author gives over 30
characteristics of the blood of Jesus that will help the reader
understand about this precious blood. This book is of the utmost
importance for today.

This story by Helen D. Longstreet is a commentary on the serious
social issues of the early twentieth century. Her two-part
narrative takes place in Blue Ridge mountains of North Georgia.
Part one involves Margaret's romance with her lover, Captain
Pulliam, and the tough choices she must make for her family. The
second part describes the efforts by Katy to help her brother,
little Billy Elrod, who is dying from a consumptive disease caused
by a cotton mill somewhere near the Tallulah River. A big city
power company has dammed the river above the beautiful Terrorah
Falls he loves so dear. A powerful storm breaks the dam and lets
the river run free again in the spectacular gorge. Billy is eager
to see the misty rainbows above the falls one last time . . . .
Steven T. Thornton's latest book is about healing as the scriptures
teach it and understanding as the reader applies the knowledge they
learn. Steven has written several books, but this one lets the
reader come to a place of understanding that healing is the
children's bread and that if we know the scriptures, as he shows us
in this book, that we will come to easily accept that we can and
will be healed.
Jehovah Tikvah is one of God's Old Covenant names. It means the
Lord our hope. In a world of chaos and calamity is there hope? God
has only given us one hope-Jesus. Jesus has given us a living hope,
a good hope, a better hope and a blessed hope. One of Jesus' names
according to Acts 28:20 is the Hope of Israel. Israel's National
Anthem is called "the hope." If a nation like Israel can hope in
the midst of chaos then those who are Christians can have hope
especially if we anchor our hope in Jesus. This book talks about
the different kinds of hope that Jesus provided for us. Reading
this book will help you understand the hope that is found in Jesus.
This genealogy of the Southern branch of the Longstreet family with
it related lines by Edward Mayes provides a unique view of the
relationships which produced such prominent figures like William
Longstreet, the inventor, Confederate General James Longstreet,
Lee's "Old Warhorse," and the Rev. A. B. Longstreet, judge,
legislator, author and educator. There are also a few lesser known
names like Daniel Longstreet the Continental Marine, Gilbert
Longstreet, a "Son of Texas," and James C. Longstreet, Judge and
Chancellor of the Univ. of Mississippi. While the text reveals an
interesting lineup of notable related individuals like Thomas
Blossom, who came over on the Mayflower, and Supreme Court Justice
L.Q.C. Lamar, the story's main focus is on the Longstreet line as
it passes from the immigrant ancestor through Judge Longstreet and
the events which center on his family and life. Along the way,
Mayes expounds in great detail on early Dutch life in New York and
New Jersey. The Longstreet manuscript contains numerous footnotes
(converted to endnotes), several interesting appendices, and a very
convenient index. If you are just starting your research and think
you may be related to someone in this family, or if you are a more
advanced researcher taking a more detailed look at the interrelated
families, this book is a simple and convenient place to research
your line.

The reason I wrote this book is because, like me, a lot of people
in the body of Christ are in need of a breakthrough. Some are in
desperate need. And some people may not know how to get a
breakthrough. The Lord has shown me that one of His Old Testament
names is Jehovah Perazim, which means Lord of the breakthroughs.
However, before there can be a breakthrough there must be a time of
testing and patient endurance. This book will show how through
praise and laughter we can receive the breakthrough we need to see
our dreams fulfilled.
As one of the greatest generals to emerge from the War Between the
States, James Longstreet fought in nearly every major battle of the
Civil War . . . Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Chickamauga, the
Wilderness and many others, but it was his stand after the war and
his efforts to help heal the Union which further define him as a
man apart. As a result, controversy followed him for the rest of
his life. Not much is known about his family and even less about
his personal life . . . and much of what is known has been
inaccurately portrayed or deliberately biased by historians. Only
recently have scholars taken another, closer look at this great
warrior. They have exposed the deliberate lies of the Lee cult
designed to ruin his reputation. General James Longstreet: A Family
Portrait is a genealogy and attempts to define the man by taking a
closer look at his progenitors and prodigy, those who came before
him and those he left behind. It is a fascinating tapestry of
nobility, adventurers and everyday people. Masterly woven together
and easy to follow through the generations, it's a story well worth
reading.
This series of short essays by Helen D. Longstreet, second wife of
Confederate Lt. Gen. James Longstreet, was first compiled and
published in 1917 by A. B. Caldwell Publishing Co. in Atlanta, Ga.
For the most part they are interesting stories about events which
occurred during and after the Civil War. Helen talks about her
family and how she met and fell in love with the old soldier, a man
40 years her senior. She vehemently defends her husband against
scurrilous accusations spewed forth by the Lee cult, a group of
ex-Confederates, who sabotaged the reputation of anyone who was
bold enough to criticize any aspect of General Robert E. Lee's
conduct during the war.
