The American Church has fallen under a horrible epidemic where professing believers in God no longer believe in God. They say they do, but most of the time they act like He's not there with their lips and their lives. This unfortunate behavior has now produced a generation of Churches full of so-called Christians who are living like practical atheists, destroying not only their supposed walk with God, but its keeping others from believing in God. Therefore, to avoid this irony of Christian's living like practical atheists, this book, The Character of God seeks to equip you with an intimate knowledge of the One and Only True God from the Word of God, the Bible.

Millions of people right now are suffering from traumatic brain injury and they don't even know it. A new epidemic is sweeping the nation causing untold numbers to completely forget who they are. So who are these people? Believe it or not, it's the American Church. Why? Because we say we know who we are as the Church, but half the time with our lips and lives, we act like we've forgotten who we are. We're simply suffering from practical amnesia. This is not only detrimental in our walk with Christ, it keeps others from believing in Christ. Therefore, to avoid this irony of Christian's living with practical amnesia, this book, The Character of the Church seeks to remind Christians of their God-given identity in Jesus Christ. We are: The Body of Christ, A Body of Love, A Body of Rebels, A Body of Brides, A Body of Peace, A Body of Worshippers, A Body of One, A Body of Strangers, A Body of Warriors, A Body of Hope, A Body of Disciples, A Body of Witnesses, A Body of Joy, A Body of Servants and A Body of Winners.

Do you ever wonder whether God even cares if we’re happy? This world can be so hard, and we aren’t promised an easy road. But that’s not the whole story. The Bible is filled with verses that prove that ours is a God who not only loves celebrations but also desperately wants his children to experience happiness. Why else would he go to the lengths he did to ensure our eternal happiness in his presence? We know that we will experience unimaginable joy and happiness in heaven, but that doesn’t mean we can’t also experience joy and happiness here on earth. In Happiness, noted theologian Randy Alcorn (bestselling author of Heaven) dispels centuries of misconceptions about happiness, including downright harmful ideas like the prosperity gospel, and provides indisputable proof that God not only wants us to be happy, he commands it. Randy covers questions like: How can I cultivate happiness in my life? What’s the difference between joy and happiness? Can good things become idols that steal our happiness? Is seeking happiness selfish? How can I achieve happiness through gratitude? What does it look like to receive God’s grace? The most definitive study on the subject of happiness to date, this book is a paradigm-shifting wake-up call for the church and Christians everywhere.

IGNORANCE OF GOD’S TRUTH IS NO EXCUSE! We are to glorify God and love Him with all our heart, soul and mind; and love our neighbors as ourselves. As believers, we are to be conduits for the flow of God’s love to other human beings. However, the Christian Community is greatly hindered corporately and individually because of self-love, individualism, spiritual and biblical ignorance. Many Christians look at the truths of God’s Word in an attitude of utter defeat and unbelief. God said this work would be done through us empowered by the Holy Spirit. We can trust Him to complete His work in us because He has promised it (see Philippians 1:6). God repeatedly assures us of His promised provisions for us, and of His consistent undying love for us. Why not fully—yield yourself to Him today!

Annotated bibliography of the Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, not only in literary texts, but in television, music, and art. The legend of Arthur has been a source of fascination for writers and artists in English since the fifteenth century, when Thomas Malory drew together for the first time in English a variety of Arthurian stories from a number of sources to form the Morte Darthur. It increased in popularity during the Victorian era, when after Tennyson's treatment of the legend, not only authors and dramatists, but painters, musicians, and film-makers found a sourceof inspiration in the Arthurian material. This interdisciplinary, annotated bibliography lists the Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, from 1500 to 2000, including literary texts, film, television, music, visual art, and games. It will prove an invaluable source of reference for students of literary and visual arts, general readers, collectors, librarians, and cultural historians--indeed, by anyone interested in the history of the waysin which Camelot has figured in post-medieval English-speaking cultures.
