Synopsis By Searching by : Isobel Kuhn

Isobel Miller gave up God for worldly pursuits. But as graduation approached and her engagement was broken, she questioned that decision. 'If You will prove to me that You are, and if You will give me peace, I will give You my whole life.' God heard Isobel's prayers and responded. He reached out to her, ending years of searching and building her up for decades of fruitful missionary service with her husband, John Kuhn, in China.

Synopsis The Arena by : Ignatius Brianchaninov

One of the most important and accessible texts of Eastern Orthodox Christian teaching on the spiritual life, this book draws upon the ascetic and mystical doctrine of the Greek Fathers and greats of the Orthodox Christian church. In an age alienated from spiritual culture and rooted in materialism, these teachings pose both a challenge and an invitation to those seeking heightened spirituality. This book is essential reading for anyone who desires a profound spiritual journey based upon an encounter with Christ as God.

Synopsis In the Arena of the Mind by : John Vandegriff

IN THE ARENA OF THE MIND tackles a struggle we all face alone, virtually without help, the struggle of sinful thinking. The book identifies & describes five basic areas of sinful thought, & then shows how God's word gives practical help in turning the tide of this battle. Using colorful illustrations & practical application, it searches the depths of Phillipians 4:8. This pivotal verse provides eight types of godly thought patterns that can be used to replace those five types of ungodly thinking. This book will be very helpful to those who take seriously the Biblical directive to transform & renew one's mind. It will aid the reader in perceiving those areas of struggle that are personally most troubling; & then will clearly describe individual processes of change needed to end unproductive, self-defeating thought while developing God honoring thinking. The types of thought listed in Phillipians 4:8 are investigated in detail, & practical projects are suggested to implement real change in one's thinking & actions. The power of godly thinking over evil thoughts is presented in a manner that any reader, attempting to live in a way that is pleasing to God, will find informative & encouraging.

Synopsis Attack at the Arena by : Paul McCusker

Over 1 million sold in series! Patrick and Beth learn that Mr. Whittaker’s fancy ring can be seen inside the Imagination Station but not outside of the machine. A mysterious letter leads the cousins to fifth-century Rome in search of a special cup that belongs to a monk. If found, the cup could keep the mysterious Albert out of prison. At the Roman Colosseum, Emperor Honorius is hosting a gladiator battle in celebration of a war victory. Beth attends the event as the emperor’s slave; Patrick attends as a monk’s apprentice but is taken prisoner and sent to fight in the arena. During their adventure, the cousins meet Telemachus (a true historical figure), a monk who believes that fighting is wrong. Telemachus is willing to risk everything—even his life—to stop the killing. When the cousins return with the cup, they find that a third letter has been sent with more information about Albert’s fate.

Synopsis Faith in Empire by : Elizabeth A. Foster

Faith in Empire is an innovative exploration of French colonial rule in West Africa, conducted through the prism of religion and religious policy. Elizabeth Foster examines the relationships among French Catholic missionaries, colonial administrators, and Muslim, animist, and Christian Africans in colonial Senegal between 1880 and 1940. In doing so she illuminates the nature of the relationship between the French Third Republic and its colonies, reveals competing French visions of how to approach Africans, and demonstrates how disparate groups of French and African actors, many of whom were unconnected with the colonial state, shaped French colonial rule. Among other topics, the book provides historical perspective on current French controversies over the place of Islam in the Fifth Republic by exploring how Third Republic officials wrestled with whether to apply the legal separation of church and state to West African Muslims.
