Book Description
We were created to reflect something or Someone. What we behold, we reflect. The more we behold the Lord, the more we look like him--and the more we see his glory released into our lives and the lives of those around us. The glory of God is irresistible. Yet seeking to sense his presence or experience his glory for its own sake misses the point. His glory is the natural outpouring of a deep relationship with the Holy Spirit. In these pages, author and speaker Jennifer Eivaz shows how you can enter into more intimate fellowship with the Spirit of God, experience miraculous encounters, and begin to see more miracles, more deliverances, and more lives dramatically changed. Here is the inspiration you need to step into the supernatural and follow God's leading--and carry his glory to the darkest places and see his kingdom come.

This study provides a comprehensive critique - forensic, historical, and theoretical - of the moral panic paradigm, using empirically grounded ethnographic research to argue that the panic paradigm suffers from fundamental flaws that make it a myth rather than a viable academic perspective.

Book Description
Are you aware that the current events shaping our world reflect apocalyptic biblical predictions? It's clear that the end of time is near. This book is a wake-up call for Christians and American patriots who can no longer afford to shrug and hope for the best. The strong foundation of Judeo-Christian values that built our great country has crumbled to the ground in the face of humanism and liberal progressivism. America's demise parallels the demise of mankind as a whole. How have we reached this state of crisis? We explore the death grip that humanism has on America, and the ultimate fate of all the world's citizens. We examine both the source of sin and the path toward holiness, including death to the old self and resurrection of the new. It is essential to heed the warnings found in God's Word""warnings which become increasingly relevant as the Great Tribulation draws near. With a detailed evaluation of the Scriptures, we identify the timeline of the Tribulation, Rapture, return of Jesus Christ, and the thousand-year Millennium. Realizing that the Rapture will not take place prior to the Tribulation, we must accept the Tribulation when it begins and recognize its ramifications""or risk being deceived by Satan and the Antichrist. As the Tribulation defines our end, so does it offer an opportunity for a new beginning, if we can achieve perfection through our Lord. While cataclysmic occurrences may be imminent, devoted Christians can also expect wondrous rewards, both here and now, and for all eternity.

Book Description
Are you spiritually thirsty? Perhaps you have been a Christian for a long time. You attend a respectable assembly or fellowship, you study the Bible and you regularly hear good ministry. You have escaped nearly two decades of increasingly deceptive spiritual movements, from the so-called Toronto ‘blessing’ to the ‘Purpose Driven’ and ‘Emergent’ Church, to name but a few. Yet still you sense that there must be more to Christianity. More than ‘ticking boxes’ for orthodox doctrine, more than preaching the Gospel to ourselves when, once again, the Lord has not seen fit to send in any of the unsaved to hear our noble efforts. Have you ever read the book of Acts and been thrilled by the sheer spiritual dynamism of those early believers? Have you wondered why there seems to be such a wide difference between their achievements and ours? Have we forgotten that we serve the same God, who "changes not"? Perhaps you have heard others talk about the Baptism with the Holy Spirit and wondered what it is all about. Sadly, for many whose hearts have been stirred, the stagnant waters of traditionalized teaching have quickly extinguished their yearnings. One of the 20th century's most gifted Bible teachers once said, "We don't need Pentecostal doctrine and we don't need Brethren doctrine, what we need is Bible doctrine!" How true. "The Missing Baptism" is an attempt to help believers examine the Scriptures afresh on this vital matter. It invites you to lay aside the distorting spectacles of denominational prejudice, unbelief, fear, and pride and take the Scriptures at face value.
