Until now, all that I have published was written to answer a need in my readers. By Divine Design was written to answer a need in the author--a need to speak, to document my worldview. Forty years of study, reflection, interaction, and teaching has developed a perspective that, though not original in any single point, is unique as each individual is unique. Molded by scripture, prayer, meditation, interaction with saints and sinners, the joyful and the suffering, the learned scholar and the common man, a philosophy is forged. You be the judge of its truthfulness. Let us judge all that we believe according to the scripture and all that we are according to the spirit of God.

Divine Design calls us back to God's original intent for men and women.

Throughout, Divine Design provides an indispensable guide for understanding your mate, and shares how embracing your unique design can foster security, blance, and love in a marriage and family.

What does it mean to be a woman? The current cultural ideal for womanhood encourages women to be strident, sexual, self-centered, independent -- and above all -- powerful and in control. But sadly, this model of womanhood hasn't delivered the happiness and fulfillment it promised. The Bible teaches that it's not up to us to decide what womanhood is all about. God created male and female for a very specific purpose. His design isn't arbitrary or unimportant. It is very intentional and He wants women to discover, embrace, and delight in the beauty of His design. He's looking for True Women! Bible teachers Mary A. Kassian and Nancy Leigh DeMoss share the key fundamentals of biblical womanhood in this eight week study. Each week includes five daily individual lessons leading to a group time of sharing and digging deeper into God's Word. And to enhance this time of learning together, on-line videos are available featuring Mary and Nancy as they encourage women to discover and embrace God's design and mission for their lives. A True Woman Book The goal of the True Woman publishing line is to encourage women to: Discover, embrace, and delight in God's divine design and mission for their lives Reflect the beauty and heart of Jesus Christ to their world Intentionally pass the baton of Truth on to the next generation Pray earnestly for an outpouring of God's Spirit in their families, churches, nation and world

With so many authors and an array of genres, you might expect the Bible to be an anthology of disconnected pieces. Yet, the sixty-six books from Genesis to Revelation weave together into a cohesive unit of divine instruction. But, the question remains - Is there more? Is there a comprehensive design in the Bible that surpasses the mere idea of conceptual unity? Stepping back to look more broadly at the arrangement of the sixty-six divinely inspired books of the Bible it is surprising to observe a mosaic image of a person with a head, torso, arms, and legs. The body of Jesus Christ (Incarnation) and the body of biblical truth (Inspiration) representing the two special revelations of God, were apparently constructed in the same manner. Taking the books of the Bible in their received groupings and order, being careful not to manipulate God's providential arrangement, we see a mirror image of the man Jesus Christ. It seems that the Bible presents to us the Person of our Lord, not only in its content, but also in its form. Crafted by God is the unveiling of this discovery and a probing of its implications. Here is a study that truly unlocks the harmonious structure and purposeful design of the Bible - as well as opening new vistas of thought that put all of Scripture into its contextual meaning.

In this seminal work, Sweet shares how three strands form the church: missional, relational, and incarnational. He calls for the re-union of these three essential, complementary components of Christian life.

Imagine the existence of an ancient, all-embracing, Divinely-conceived plan that is binding together the world's great religions, unfolding over time according to rational principles and guiding humanity toward an ultimate, meaningful purpose. We can learn about this plan from a curriculum created by God in a classroom comprised of all creation.The Divine curriculum is integrated, progressive and never-ending because the knowledge and grace of God cannot be exhausted. The Divine Curriculum series tells the 4000-year story of how God has been educating humanity from ancient times unto the present day. This universal, sweeping tale is told through the lens of a unifying framework that strives to glimpse the ultimate objective of the Divine curriculum, the universal mission and purpose of all of creation. And according to Edward Price, the story has really just begun.
