When Chris Morgan is unexpectedly confronted by Jake Phillips in her office late one night, her life suddenly takes a dramatic turn. To achieve her career goal of becoming a surveyor, Chris bright, determined, and deeply devoted to God has taken a job with an engineering company in a small desert town. Jake also bright and determined but wrestling with a serious crisis of faith accuses Chris and the engineering company where she works of incorrectly surveying and stealing part of the property he inherited from his grandfather. Immediately their temperaments clash. As the property fraud unfolds, their personal friction turns to a like-mindedness, and they work together to determine how his property corners were moved. Their search leads them on a life-threatening collision course. Ancient Boundary Stone is the first book in the Morgan Family Genealogy Series.

In Horos, Thea Potter explores the complex relationship between classical philosophy and the ‘horos’, a stone that Athenians erected to mark the boundaries of their marketplace, their gravestones, their roads and their private property. Potter weaves this history into a meditation on the ancient philosophical concept of horos, the foundational project of determination and definition, arguing that it is central to the development of classical philosophy and the marketplace. Horos challenges many significant interpretations of ancient thought. With nuance and insight, Potter combines the works of Aristotle, Plato, Homer and archaic Greek inscriptions with the twentieth-century continental philosophy of Heidegger, Derrida and Walter Benjamin. The result is a powerful study of the theme of boundaries in classical Athenian society as evidenced by boundary stones, law and exchange, ontology, insurgency and occupation. The innovative book will be of interest to scholars in the fields of ancient Greek social history, philosophy, and literature, as well as to the general reader who is curious to know more about classical life and philosophy.

This is a compilation of four previously published, rather slenderer books, entitled The God of More than Enough, Christ the Hope of Glory, According to the Power and This Hope we Have. It appears now by popular request in one volume to encourage the reading and reflection on God's word every morning. It also contains the revised script of an E-book from some years back, entitled "First Thoughts: Be My First Thought in the Morning." As a couple, we always try to start and finish each day centred on God's word, to let it be our first thought and our last thought. And so First Thoughts still seems to be an appropriate title for the present volume. There's a theme that comes consistently to the surface wherever we travel: it's the theme of God's supply. Everywhere we go, we find people hungry for the truth that God is all we need, that He is our supplier, that He provides for every single situation. So here are some of those verses that have blessed us in that discovery.

Israelite wisdom, literature, David Penchansky argues, records the disputes of ancient sages over basic human questions: What is the purpose of life? Is God just? Why do we suffer? Does God even exist? Penchansky sees confl icting answers to these questions in Proverbs, Job, Ecclesiastes, Ben Sira, and the Wisdom of Solomon -- and does not try to harmonize them. Instead, he fi nds meaning in the very dissonance and contradiction within these texts. Employing the latest scholarship yet remaining accessible to nonspecialists and students, Penchansky strikingly focuses on the "big picture" behind wisdom literature -- making it easy for readers to follow and appreciate these challenging texts -- without undermining each book's distinctive features. In the process, Penchansky opens up this rich and fertile vein of Israelite thought and demonstrates the renewed relevance of ancient Hebrew wisdom for today.

What were ancient scribes doing when they copied a manuscript of a literary work? This question is especially problematic when we realize that ancient scribes preserved different versions of the same literary texts. In Scribal Memory and Word Selection: Text Criticism of the Hebrew Bible, Raymond F. Person Jr. draws from studies of how words are selected in everyday conversation to illustrate that the same word-selection mechanisms were at work in scribal memory. Using examples from manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible, Person provides new ways of understanding the cognitive-linguistic mechanisms at work during the composition/transmission of texts. Person reveals that, while our modern perspective may consider textual variants to be different literary texts, from the perspective of the ancient scribes and their audiences, these variants could still be understood as the same literary text.

It as a comprehensive text for aspiring and practicing professional land surveyors, those in the real property business, and those involved in land administration. Written for the South African practice environment, it will also be of interest to an international audience. The authors’ approach is progressive with the intent to inspire development to meet the needs of our society for secure land tenure for all. A broad range of topics are included: historical roots of tenure in the ancient world, the early development of the cadastre in South Africa, and development of the land surveying profession and professionalism. This provides context to the discussion on land law, tenure and rights; on legal institutions, on land administration, as well as government policies and reform imperatives. Defining property boundaries of rights in space is a particular challenge of the cadastral land surveyor. The chapters on the definition of beacons and boundaries cover a broad range of onshore and offshore application environments. They span the extent of ownership and limited real rights within the sovereign area of the Republic of South Africa. These environments include the air, the land surface and subterrestrial; coastal waters, and the sea bed. Particular attention is paid to complex river and coastal property boundaries. Case law is a key driver for changes in legislation and is also highly directive in terms of practice. The final chapter of the book is dedicated to a themed exploration of case law relating to beacons, boundaries, evidence, rights and restrictions. Cadastre: Principles and Practice will be an important addition to your professional bookshelf. Order it here: https://www.sagi.co.za/product/cadastre-principles-and-practice/

Just a Thought is a collection of daily devotionals which have been sent to the people of Daybreak Ministries, friends, family, and many others. These "thoughts" have not been written necessarily for the purpose of making one feel good or comfortable, but rather they are by design intended to spur the reader on to a deeper intimate walk with God and service to the King of kings. Readers whose lives have been affected have asked for these devotionals in book form so they will be able to share them with others. These thoughts have been sent as emails to all parts of the country and many have reported forwarding them on to others, who in turn have asked to be added to the daily list, enabling them to be received directly. It is my earnest hope and prayer that you will be blessed, challenged and drawn closer to the Lord Jesus Christ as you read.
