Ultimate Things : An Introduction To Jewish And Christian Apocalyptic Liter
$27.99
“Hearty thanks to Greg Carey for this wide-ranging survey of classical Jewish and Christian apocalyptic discourse. Uniquely comprehensive, the volume treats the full range of ancient apocalyptic imagination from 1 Enoch to the apocalypses of Peter and Paul. Such key topics as the Dead Sea Scrolls, the thought of Jesus and Paul, and the Shepherd of Hermas are all included. Readers are sure to appreciate Carey’s keen insights, balanced summaries of scholarship, and sane direction amid heated controversies. His introduction should become one of the first places instructors direct students interested in both scriptural and extra-canonical apocalyptic writings.”

Problem Of Pain
$17.99For centuries Christians have been tormented by one question above all — If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain? C. S. Lewis sets out to disentangle this knotty issue but wisely adds that in the end no intellectual solution can dispense with the necessity for patience and courage.

Devil At My Heels
$14.99Athletically 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.
