Archaeology Of The Bible
$27.99
For the past 200 years archaeological work has provided new information that allows us to peer into the past and open chapters of human history that have not been read for centuries, or even millennia. The archaeological remains from the Ancient Near East in particular can produce valuable information that improves our understanding of the Bible. In The Archaeology of the Bible James K. Hoffmeier provides the reader with an incisive account of archaeology’s role in shaping our understanding of the biblical texts.
Following an overview of archaeological techniques and usage in biblical interpretation, the author takes us through the Old and New Testaments and examines archaeological evidence that underpins certain biblical themes and narratives. Fundamental issues addressed throughout include how archaeological discoveries relate to biblical accounts and the compatibility of using scientific disciplines to prove or disprove a religious book such as the Bible.Interspersed with boxed features that provide more detail on geographical settings, cultural practices and biblical narratives, The Archaeology of the Bible is an ideal introduction to the societies and events of the Ancient Near East and how they affect our interpretation of the Bible.

Devil At My Heels
$14.99Add to cartAthletically gifted, Louis Zamperini propelled himself from the tough streets of Southern California to the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and to an NCAA mile record at USC that stood for 20 years. When war came he left the track for a B-24-a move that would have heartbreaking consequences. On a routine mission his plane crashed into the shark-infested Pacific and he would drift 2,000 miles for 47 days before being found by the Japanese. As a prisoner of war, Zamperini endured two years of horrible torture and humiliation at the hands of a psychopathic guard nicknamed “The Bird.” Yet Zamperini endured and returned home a hero.
Unfortunately, the terrible memory of his experiences haunted him. Zamperini turned to alcohol and spiraled into the depths of despair until a young preacher named Billy Graham helped him rediscover the faith that would eventually lead him to return to Japan and personally forgive all his now-imprisoned captors. Moving and unforgettable, terrifying and inspirational, Devil At My Heels is not to be missed.
