A View From The Jury Box is a journalistic approach to the long and complicated trial of Ron Blaney Jr., a deaf mute, who was accused of murdering and torturing his deaf girlfriend and her mother. The author, Carol Hazelwood, was the foreperson. This is the story of compassion, pettiness, stupidity, and sincerity of twelve jurors struggling to come to a right and fair judgment as the law dictates. This book is a true enactment of our jury system and the flawed human beings who are brought together to rain judgement on another.

In his own witty and straight-shooting style, Sebati Edward Mafate takes us through the life of a high school teenager in an African boarding school. It is a wild, zany, funny, outrageous, and fascinating narrative. We witness every single trial, tribulation, and the heartache that Sebati endures. It is the nostalgia of high school that happens to everyone - the athletes, misfits, jokers, the overachievers, the drama queens, and all.

True stories demonstrate the positive transformative impact emotional intelligence development has had on the lives and careers of business leaders and service professionals. Tools and methods used to foster this dramatic growth are also included.

Through its discussion of the biblical lesson of God's rejection of Cain's offering, "More Than The Gift" challenges readers to reexamine their perspective on Christian giving and to consider the proposition that Christian giving always has been about much more than the gift itself.

Is it biblical to design the church service around the preferences of the unchurched? To the Purpose-Driven and seeker-sensitive megachurch, the answer is yes! Through inoffensive preaching and glitzy worship, these churches appeal deliberately to a fast-food generation in search of instant gratification. But does pop-music, drama skits, and short, ear-tickling messages disguised as "church" prostitute authentic ministry? Has the Church been held hostage by capitalism and hoodwinked by opinion polls, marketing pragmatism, self-help ideology, and therapeutic thinking? Written through the lens of Scripture, "Fa$t-Food Churchianity" provides a biblical response to this epidemic sweeping through contemporary evangelicalism in America

Who saves who? To this question the Christian Church has historically offered two answers. Calvinists insist that God saves sinners by grace, irrespective of human will, whereas Arminians believe that sinners save themselves by freely choosing to cooperate with God's grace. While both sides champion divine sovereignty in election, they disagree over its scope and to what extent God exercises it. In "The Scandal of Sovereignty" both Calvinism and Arminianism are put to the acid test of Scripture. Each is examined under the light of historical orthodoxy. When the dust settles, one lionheart is left standing-the Doctrines of Grace.

Once feared as a terrorist bent on the destruction of the Christian Church, the apostle Paul converted to Christianity by divine miracle at the peak of his tyranny. His extraordinary conversion ultimately proved to be the Church's greatest triumph. Three missionary journeys, thirteen epistles, and twenty-five years later, the former Pharisee cemented his legacy as a man of exceeding faith who turned the world upside down as an ambassador for Christ. Novelized with dramatic flair and scholarship, A Hebrew of Hebrews promises to instill in the reader a new appreciation for the greatest Christian the Church has even received.
