I hadn't tested God's faithfulness then. But the key was in my dreams. His communication to me was nothing less than a modern day miracle. While running through the smoke and the dust of the 9/11 attacks on New York City, I prayed for strength that I hadn't tapped before. When I endured the unexpected loss of my beloved parents only a few months later, I felt stretched in untested ways. But God was faithful. Through a series of powerfully accurate dreams, God communicated coming events that changed my life forever. My nonfiction book, Then Will I Take Thee Up, takes a powerful look at supernatural intervention and divine guidance in the 21st century. The story is a recount of experiences that lead me through a journey to recognizing God's faithfulness. In a world filled with violence, hatred, famine, disease, murder of innocent children, war, nuclear threat, economic failure.......... The book addresses such questions as: [ Where is God in life's trials and tribulations? [ Does God direct our lives, sometimes using dreams to communicate? [ How does God strengthen us? [ What can we learn when God uses prophetic dreams? [ How can we survive the catastrophes of life? Many question God's strength and presence when confronted with disaster in their life. This book, in studying dreams and how they can foretell events, gives specific advice for seeing God in life's trials and tribulations. Other books now on the market deal with interpreting dreams but this book is unique in examining how prophetic dreams reveal God's character and how he sometimes communicates with believers through dreams.

"A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.

In The Silence of Adam, Dr. Larry Crabb and his colleagues, biblical scholar Don Hudson and counselor Al Andrews, offer a fresh look at how God designed men.
