Book Description
Wife to a gambler who took one too many risks, Rahab finds herself sold as a slave to cover her husband's debt. Forced into prostitution by Dabir, counselor to the Syrian king, Rahab despairs of ever regaining her freedom and her self-respect. But when Israelite spies enter Jericho and come to lodge at her house, Rahab sees a glimmer of hope and the opportunity of a lifetime. In one risky moment, she takes a leap of faith, puts her trust in a God she does not know, and vows to protect the spies from the authorities. When the armies of Israel arrive weeks later, Rahab hopes they will keep their promise, but she has no idea what kind of challenges await her outside Jericho's walls--or if she will ever know the meaning of love. Under Jill Eileen Smith's talented hand, the familiar story of Rahab bursts forth in high definition. Readers will find themselves fully immersed in a world of dark and dusty streets, clandestine meetings, and daring escapes as a mysterious biblical figure claims her full humanity--and a permanent place in readers' hearts.

Book Description
Although this is Louis Green's first novel, his unique speaking style has captivated audiences since the mid 1960's. Now the masterful preacher presents the Parable of the Prodigal in such a way that each chapter will say to you, "this is how it must have happened." The Crimson Cord is comprised of multiple intertwined strands, woven in complexity when a young mother dies giving birth to twin sons. While dying, she gives them names foretelling of their oncoming conflict. The confusion accompanying their birth, threatens to destroy their family as they grow older. Strengthen the cord with a scarlet thread of jealousy of an abused concubine possessed with insecurities and the blood red rage of a spurious criminal who will stop at nothing to get revenge. Then plait the cord with an outer layer of witchcraft, drugs and deviant sex, as the younger son pursues an uncharted course, caravanning to Carnival in Canaan. After learning life's hard lessons, the lost one retraces his steps home, to be embraced in celebration by some but spurned by his brother's contempt. Will the cord become an inescapable web of death or a safety net of love as the last chapter concludes in unexpected tumult?

Book Description
The Spring 2021 issue of The Crimson Cord, featuring Real Women, True Life stories, and Faithful God messages that help encourage and lead us to abundant, fruitful lives. We are happy that this issue of the Crimson Cord has reached you, and we want to start by welcoming you in. As our motto expresses in just a few words, every bit of this journal is written, edited and assembled into its current form by a group of women who have come to the pages of this journal just as we are. We do this work together as a team of joyful volunteers because of our gratitude to the same true, living and faithful God who has revealed Himself to us in the Bible and in countless other ways that are personal to each of us. Sharing that testimony with you is what motivates all of us to do our part in weaving together the Crimson Cord and sending it out for you to discover.Every issue of the Crimson Cord has its own unique personality, which is influenced by all that we and our writers experienced while creating it. The articles in this issue share a common focus on becoming consciously aware of how we live differently when we choose to live by our faith, especially when we are hit by major shocks that suddenly redefine every other aspect of our lives. 2020 and the Covid-19 pandemic has been a shock like that for all of us, but has also given us new opportunities to live by faith and to praise God for giving us that faith. We stand in awe at the many ways God finds to use everything for His purposes, and therefore for our ultimate good (Romans 8:28).For the members of our team, as for you, life has changed forever this year as more than one of us mourned the deaths of loved ones, gave birth to new babies, lost or changed jobs or homes, or confronted difficult decisions whose consequences are still unfolding. Amidst all these enormous changes, even the things that have stayed the same strike us at times as odd, jarring, out of sync. But that is our perspective, not God's, because He is the same, "yesterday, today, and forever" (Hebrews 13:8) and nothing that has happened in the past year has taken Him by surprise.Know that the Lord himself is with you right now, and that He will go with you into whatever will happen in your life later today, next month, or at any point in the future.And if The Crimson Cord helps to remind you that you are not alone in the Lord's presence, you can bring it along with you too. -- With love from the CC TeamInside this issue:"We can pray for deliverance, but a restful reliance on the sovereignty of God is not revealed in desperation or despair." (Jaci Greggs, page 23)"When ongoing losses occur, I encourage myself with the truth that my relationship with the Lord is the only one that I know for sure will go with me into eternity. Therefore, I seek to develop it fully." (Eidene Anderson, page 36)"In contrast to the casual, temporary emotion of happiness, delight is a destination emotion. You arrive there--you don't wander there." (Briana Terrell, page 4)"His gift of faith may be large or small, but practice it- - use it. It is the gift that grows larger and more robust. it is used but never used up. " (Cyndi Swehla, page 43)

Book Description
Joses and Jude are brothers with a common goal; they both seek to defeat and expel the Romans from Palestine and rule Israel themselves. The problem is, only one of them can rule. Who wins will decide the course of history. Jesus was a warrior and a mystic, and he did not consider the two to be mutually exclusive. The question is, who was Jesus? 'The Crimson Thread' points to the obvious, and the reader is in for a big surprise. The book has loads of action, a host of visions, and the exposure of nearly all sacred cows.
