Synopsis The Sword by : Bryan M. Litfin

Four hundred years after a deadly virus and nuclear war destroyed the modern world, a new and noble civilization emerges. In this kingdom, called Chiveis, snowcapped mountains provide protection, and fields and livestock provide food. The people live medieval-style lives, with almost no knowledge of the "ancient" world. Safe in their natural stronghold, the Chiveisi have everything they need, even their own religion. Christianity has been forgotten—until a young army scout comes across a strange book. With that discovery, this work of speculative fiction takes readers on a journey that encompasses adventure, romance, and the revelation of the one true God. Through compelling narrative and powerful character development, The Sword speaks to God's goodness, his refusal to tolerate sin, man's need to bow before him, and the eternality and power of his Word. Fantasy and adventure readers will be hooked by this first book in a forthcoming trilogy.

Synopsis The Kingdom by : Clive Cussler

The Kingdom is Clive Cussler's third Fargo Adventure. Whether it's lost treasure or missing persons, the Fargos find themselves in a heap of trouble every time . . . When Texas oil baron Charlie King contacts Sam and Remi Fargo he has an unusual request. He hired an investigator - and good friend of the pair - to locate his missing father in the Far East. But now the investigator has vanished. Would Sam and Remi be willing to look for them both? Though something about the request doesn't quite add up, Sam and Remi agree to help out. It's a journey that takes the Fargos to Tibet, Nepal, Bulgaria, India, and China. They get mixed up with black-market fossils, a centuries-old puzzle chest, the ancient Nepali kingdom of Mustang, a balloon aircraft from a century before its time . . . and an extraordinary skeleton that might turn the history of human evolution on its head. Oh, and not a few unfriendly people with guns and itchy trigger fingers . . . Clive Cussler, author of the celebrated Dirk Pitt novels Treasure of Khan and Valhalla Rising, presents the third novel in his newest series, following the adventures of treasure hunters Sam and Remi Fargo. The Kingdom follows Spartan Gold and Lost Empire. Praise for Clive Cussler: 'Cussler is hard to beat' Daily Mail 'Cussler is the guy I read' Tom Clancy

Maddie lives in a world where everything is done on the computer. Whether it’s to go to school or on a date, people don’t venture out of their home. There’s really no need. For the most part, Maddie’s okay with the solitary, digital life—until she meets Justin. Justin likes being with people. He enjoys the physical closeness of face-to-face interactions. People aren’t meant to be alone, he tells her. Suddenly, Maddie feels something awakening inside her—a feeling that maybe there is a different, better way to live. But with society and her parents telling her otherwise, Maddie is going to have to learn to stand up for herself if she wants to change the path her life is taking.

Synopsis Early African American Print Culture by : Lara Langer Cohen

The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries saw both the consolidation of American print culture and the establishment of an African American literary tradition, yet the two are too rarely considered in tandem. In this landmark volume, a stellar group of established and emerging scholars ranges over periods, locations, and media to explore African Americans' diverse contributions to early American print culture, both on the page and off. The book's chapters consider domestic novels and gallows narratives, Francophone poetry and engravings of Liberia, transatlantic lyrics and San Francisco newspapers. Together, they consider how close attention to the archive can expand the study of African American literature well beyond matters of authorship to include issues of editing, illustration, circulation, and reading—and how this expansion can enrich and transform the study of print culture more generally.

Synopsis Sold by : Jared Price

What is a disciple? Is a disciple somehow different than, a Christian? Too many pastors, authors, bloggers, social media posters, and Christian video producers affirm a false dichotomy that being a disciple is somehow different from being a Christian. The two are not separate but mutually inclusive. A disciple is a Christian and a Christian is a disciple.S.O.L.D. seeks to define the term disciple as Jesus meant it. In the Gospels, Jesus says every disciple will be marked by four specific characteristics. A true disciple will be committed to sacrificing for Jesus, obeying what He taught, loving others in His name, and discipling others to follow Him. Within each mark is present a larger biblical theme that helps us evaluate and assess true Christianity in today's culture. What others have said:"It has never been easy being a disciple of Jesus, and that's probably more true today than ever before. Our contemporary world presses us with distractions and calls us to follow anything but the costly way of the Lord. Jared Price's book provides the necessary skills for those who want to make--and become!--better disciples. Rooted in sacrifice and obedience, and marked by love and multiplication, the disciple-making model you'll find in this book will help pastors, youth leaders, and anyone involved in gospel work to lead others closer to Christ. No page is wasted. The content is gold. You'll be glad you read this book!" - Dr. Bryan Litfin - Ph.D. in Ancient Christianity from the University of Virginia, prolific author including the Chiveis Trilogy, and Editor at Moody Publishers. "Jared Price has provided a fantastic and helpful primer on the high cost of discipleship. He has put the many pieces of the puzzle together to create a beautiful portrait of a true disciple of Jesus."-Dan Dumas - CEO of Red Buffalo, interim teaching Pastor, former Vice President at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, and author of Live Smart."A thorough foundation in the Word! Not just one passage at a time dealing with the topics, but numerous passages that speak to the characteristics of discipleship. The style of writing makes reading feel like we were sitting together talking." -Dr. R. Stephen Coffey - U.S. Director at Christar. "Jared Price's new book on discipleship is simply outstanding. Price reminds us that there is no distinction in scripture between being a Christian and a disciple. To be a disciple is to be sold out for Jesus in all areas of our lives. Read this book at your own risk--it may transform the way you think about your relationship with God and with others."-Dave Furman - Senior Pastor, Redeemer Church of Dubai; author of Being There: How to Love Those Who are Hurting & Kiss the Wave: Embracing God in Your Trials.

Synopsis The Kingdom by : Bryan M. Litfin

Book Three in the Chiveis Trilogy War and disease have destroyed the modern world. Centuries later, feudal societies have arisen across Europe. No one can remember the ancient religion of Christianity—until an army captain and a farmer’s daughter discover the Sacred Writing of the one true God. As Teo and Ana encounter the forgotten words of the holy book, they realize its message is just what their kingdom needs. Though exiled from their homeland, they join their hearts in a quest to return. But now an ancient pact has united the enemies of the Christian faith into a dark alliance that threatens to consume the known world. Racing to stay one step ahead of their enemies, Teo and Ana must battle heinous villains, stormy seas, and the powers of the underworld itself. As armies begin to mass for a final battle, the odds favor the forces of evil. Can Teo and Ana bring divine truth to Chiveis—or will the Word of God fade from the earth forever?
