We read God’s promises to Israel in the Old Testament where it is referred to as “the apple of His eye but is God done with Israel since they rejected their Messiah? Are we as Christians supposed to stand for the nation of Israel today? Has the Church now replaced Israel so that God’s promises and covenants given in the OT no longer apply to Israel? What is Israel’s global importance? Is global anti-Semitism on the rise? What will be Israel's ultimate future? According to an article in the Jerusalem Post of June 17 2011 Israel is at a "do-or-die moment." "As was the case in May 1967 when the combined Arab armies gathered with the express purpose of wiping the Jewish state off the map – today again Israel is alone in its hour of greatest peril." John Weldon is able to answer these questions and address the important issues of our day because of the extensive research he has done on Middle East and America. He shares what he has learned in this deeply thought-provoking book.

The belief that America has been providentially chosen for a special destiny has deep roots in the country's past. As both a stimulus of creative American energy and a source of American self-righteousness, this notion has long served as a motivating national mythology. God's New Israel is a collection of thirty-one readings that trace the theme of American destiny under God through major developments in U.S. history. First published in 1971 and now thoroughly updated to reflect contemporary events, it features the words of such prominent and diverse Americans as Jonathan Edwards, Thomas Jefferson, Brigham Young, Chief Seattle, Abraham Lincoln, Frances Willard, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Ralph Reed, and Rosemary Radford Ruether. Neither a history of American religious denominations nor a history of American theology, this book is instead an illuminating look at how religion has helped shape Americans' understanding of themselves as a people.

The past and future of Jewish-Christian dialogue The history of the relationship between Judaism and Christianity is storied and tragic. However, recent decades show promise as both parties reflect on their self-definitions and mutual contingency and consider possible ways forward. In Healing the Schism, Jennifer M. Rosner maps the new Jewish-Christian encounter from its origins in the early twentieth-century pioneers to its current representatives. Rosner first traces the thought of Karl Barth and Frank Rosenzweig and brings them into conversation. Rosner then outlines the reassessments and developments of post-Holocaust theological architects that moved the dialogue forward and set the stage for today. She considers the recent work of Messianic Jewish theologian Mark S. Kinzer and concludes by envisioning future possibilities. With clarity and rigor, Rosner offers a robust perspective of Judaism and Christianity that is post-supersessionist and theologically orthodox. Healing the Schism is essential reading for understanding the perils and promise of Messianic Jewish identity and Jewish-Christian theological conversation.

What if your prayers for Israel could hasten the Lord's return?Do you know what is on God's heart? When we are in love, we long to know the heart of our beloved. Similarly, to grow in our relationship with God, we must understand what is on His heart. What does He care about most? What makes Him happy or sad? God's Heart for Israel is a collection of three books, all of which examine what God is most passionate about, with a focus on his passion for Israel: Explore God's Heart for Relationships, Explore God's Heart for The Return of Christ and Explore God's Heart for Keeping His Word. Bible studies and prayer guides invite you to share in God's great passion for Israel-and learn how you can play a part in His plans for the end times. For example, did you know that Aliyah-Jewish people returning to live in Israel-is a precursor to Christ's return? This movement is already underway-but there's much more to happen, and God has a part for you to play. This life-changing book will leave you challenged and empowered to encounter the Father heart of God. Dean Bye, Founding Director of Return Ministries This book is timely and significant as we are invited into one of the greatest movements of God in history.

Have you ever wondered why the so called Middle East peace process, along with the countless plans and proposals put forth by the United Nations, the European Union, the Arab nations, the United States, and the Russians have all ended in failure? They have all ended in failure because events taking place in Israel today have nothing to do with peace; nor with Israel exchanging land for peace, nor with Israel agreeing to divide Jerusalem, nor with Israel agreeing to the creation of a Palestinian State on land promised by God to the Jews by everlasting covenant. Events taking place in Israel and the Middle East today have to do with only one thing - God's plan for Israel in the last days. All the plans, schemes, and proposals of the nations will come to nothing. Only God's plan for Israel and the nations will prevail. "The Lord nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to generation. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance." Psalm 33:10:12.

David Baron was raised in a devout Jewish family and studied Hebrew in rabbinical school. After completing his own study of the Scriptures, he converted to Christianity and devoted himself to a twofold ministry: explaining Christianity to the Jews and explaining the Jews to Christianity. These two objectives form the basis for his classic work Israel in the Plan of God. Israel's past and future, from her national election by God to the final judgment of her enemies, is covered in the balanced, biblical study of this astute scholar.

New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
