Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Price, president of World of the Bible Ministries and author of such works as Secrets of the Dead Sea Scrolls and Unholy War, has declared war on critics of the Bible. Writing from a conservative evangelical Christian perspective, he defends the integrity of the Scriptures against popular writers like Dan Brown (The Da Vinci Code) as well as serious scholars like Bart Ehrman (Misquoting Jesus). To many students, the issue of biblical inerrancy—generally understood to mean that the original manuscripts of the Bible are without error—is something of a red herring. We don't have those manuscripts; how can we know that they are free from error? Price admits that we likely would not profit much by having these manuscripts and claims the copies we have are reliable. Instead, he gives the reader a scholarly, though very readable, defense of existing translations. He goes beyond the question Can we trust the Bible? and takes a serious look at the canonization process, the abundance of translated resources available to Bible students, the impact of extra-biblical resources and the consistency of Bible translations over thousands of years. Many charts and graphs aid the reader in putting all the information together. This is a fine book for lay and professional readers alike. (Oct.)

Product Description

Noted researcher/archaeologist Randall Price tackles crucial, faith–challenging questions about the Bible’s claims to be divine communication. All dispute boils down to two fundamental issues: Were the original writings given by God, or were they cobbled together from traditions, myths, and human ethical notions? And if divine, have they been faithfully passed down to us?
Price brings his expert knowledge of the Bible texts to examine crucial topics:

• what the key ancient manuscripts reveal
• ideas about how mere humans composed the writings
• evidence from the archaeological record
• the gathering of inspired texts into one book
• the transmission of those texts to us

All evidence available today, concludes the author, upholds even more strongly the age–long views of orthodox Christianity. Not only is the Bible we have a trustworthy record of divine revelation, but it remains living and authoritative for every time, every place, and every person.

Learning to put "First Things First"

Time management with virtue and meaning from your own life.

As good stewards of the time the Lord has given us while we are here on earth, we all could stand a very good time mangement system. I really like how this book makes you stop and plan to do those things that are most important to you.  It really helps gets the clutter out of your daily schedule and time to do those things that really count.

Product Description

I'm getting more done in less time, but where are the rich relationships, the inner peace, the balance, the confidence that I'm doing what matters most and doing it well?
Does this nagging question haunt you, even when you feel you are being your most efficient? If so, First Things First can help you understand why so often our first things aren't first. Rather than offering you another clock, First Things First provides you with a compass, because where you're headed is more important than how fast you're going.

Product Description

THE TABERNACLE: This superb work on Israel’s wilderness tabernacle explores in depth the service of the priesthood and the significance of the sacrifices. The well-organized content and numerous illustrations will open new vistas of biblical truth as ceremonies, sacrifices, and priestly service reveal the perfections of the messiah.

From the Back Cover

The Tabernacle—its description and ministries—dominates fifty chapters in the Old Testament, while the creation of the entire world is described in just two.
Understanding the sacrifices, services, and priesthood of the Tabernacle is integral to a proper understanding of God’s redemptive program. This first recorded dwelling place of God clearly pictures sinful man, a holy God, and the incredible price required to bring the two together. A good grasp of the Old Testament Tabernacle is essential to understanding much of the New Testament, including more than half of the book of Hebrews.
David Levy approaches the Tabernacle simply, systematically, and scripturally, providing a resource for those with little Bible knowledge and those with many years of personal Bible study.
David M. Levy is a graduate of Moody Bible Institute, the University of Illinois, and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. As Foreign Field Director for The Friends of Israel, David travels extensively in Eastern and Western Europe, Israel, New Zealand, Australia, and North and South America. He is also Associate Editor of The Friends of Israel’s highly acclaimed publication, Israel My Glory.

Help, Lord, I'm Having a Senior Moment

Yesterday, my mom (89 years old) and I were looking for interesting reading to download to our Kindles. She asked me to put in an on-line search for books for "Seniors". I did and we come up with a delightful book. The book is written as notes to God from one growing old. We are both enjoying the humor and the wisdom of the book as we read the comments connected to the struggles of an aging body and the joys of a maturing spirit. Best express in this poem quoted in the front of the book:

"Senior Moments"  by Karen Taylor

This book tells not of youngsters

and the way they spend their days.

It's all about us old folks

and our fuddy-duddy-ways

Sometimes it's hard to figure

what life is all about.

My brain is finally working,

now my body's giving out.
