Radiant Glory: The Life of Martha Wing Robinson by Gordon P. Gardiner is the only existent biography of Martha Wing Robinson (1874-1936), a relatively unknown woman from the Mid-West who was healed of several severe maladies under the ministry of John Alexander Dowie, and was then led by God into the Pentecostal outpouring in 1906. Gordon P. Gardiner spent over 20 years writing this detailed account of Martha Wing Robinson’s life, drawing from personal remembrances as a boy and young man in Illinois, as well as numerous interviews with Martha Wing Robinson’s closest associates, sheaves of correspondence, and notes and dictations of her talks. It pays special attention given to her writings and talks after her tremendous experience in 1907, right up to her death in 1936.

How do we express the good that God wants for those we love? How do we experience blessing through pain and suffering? Why would we bless even enemies? How do we keep spoken blessings in sync with God’s will? And how do we integrate blessing, a concept woven throughout the entire Bible, into the fabric of our everyday lives? In Given, you will journey outside of your comfort zone, into a world of blessing as a relational calling—as a way God relates to you and a way you’re called to relate to others. You will travel across countries, cultures, and centuries of church history to expand your paradigm of a word ripe with significance. Along the way, you’ll be inspired to begin the essential Christian practice of being given by God as a blessing. Journey with author Tina Boesch to discover your calling to a meaningful way of living and relating to God and others, inspired by Christ, who gave himself on the cross so that we could fully experience God’s blessing.

Art is often viewed as being inherently spiritual. But what does it mean to describe an experience of art or beauty as "spiritual"? Is there a relationship between the spiritual experience a person has in the presence of a work of art and the Holy Spirit of Christian faith? Skilled theologian, musician, and educator Steven Guthrie examines areas of overlap between spirituality, human creativity, and the arts with the goal of sharpening and refining how we speak and think about the Holy Spirit. By exploring various connections between art and spirituality, he helps Christians better understand the doctrine of the Holy Spirit and offers a clear, engaging theology of the arts. The book includes a foreword by renowned theologian and musician Jeremy Begbie.

Wouldnt you just love to truly understand the purpose of your life, along with that of everyone and everything else in existence? This is not as difficult to realize as some believe. We only need to openly resolve a few fundamental questions from a big-picture perspective. Then understanding the purpose of everything will become more a matter of common sense than such a great mystery. These are the basic questions: Did we merely evolve, or were we created? If we were created, why were we created? If we were created by God, whose god, from which religion, is the genuine God? Can we know with absolute certainty that particular God is real? Why would any factual God allow bad things to happen to so many good people? And, can we know with certainty whether theres an afterlife? We all instinctively contemplate these questions, either consciously or subconsciously, so we must resolve them to understand who we are and our place in the grand scheme of things. Lets settle these issues once and for all.

The beautiful book of Revelation is the LordaEUR(tm)s own aEURoeemergency preparedness handbook.aEUR It was given to us two thousand years ago as a fire drill for the end of time, so that no one would have to be caught unaware. No one knows exactly when God will say, aEURoeEnough!aEUR as he did in NoahaEUR(tm)s generation when he saw how great manaEUR(tm)s wickedness had become on the earth, being only evil all the time. His heart was so grieved he said, aEURoeI will wipe mankind off the face of the earth.aEUR And he did. Noah was the only man on the planet who knew great waters were about to flood the entire Earth. He and his family survived that first apocalypse because he acted on the warning. The Revelation is GodaEUR(tm)s warning for this and every generation. He did not hide the warning of the end of time in a sacred vault. Every detail of the end is available in the last book of the Holy Bible. We only have to study it to show ourselves approved.
