Book Description
The academy has not been kind to Malachi. Indeed, some of the most influential and seminal studies on the book denigrate its style, message, and overall artistry. This negative assessment proves extensive in the history of scholarship. Furthermore, the studies demonstrating a more positive assessment of Malachi do so without offering serious challenges to these long-standing denigrations. Complicating the matter is the observation that critical study has proffered numerous suggestions for what Malachi contains while failing to provide a viable model of what Malachi actually is. A Message from the Great King presents serious challenges to the guild’s prior assessments and conclusions about the book. Through an interdisciplinary approach that synthesizes insights from literary theory, thorough historical reconstruction, and a close reading of the biblical text, R. Michael Fox makes a formidable case that a root messenger metaphor pervades the entire text of Malachi. Viewed and read through this new lens, Malachi’s artistry becomes more readily apparent and its theological message more intense and demanding. A Message from the Great King provides serious reassessment of the academy’s long-standing denigrations of the book and a compelling answer to what Malachi actually is. Accompanying these insights into Malachi are new methodological procedures and exercises that merit further attention and reflection.

Book Description
This book includes 42 messages drafted during the first seven weeks (June 23 to August 12) after publication of "America the Great," which the author of "America the Great" sent to various groups of persons he thought would be interested in reading "America the Great." Some of the earliest messages are to persons in Scotland and the United Kingdom, because of the September 2014 Scotland Independence Referendum, to note the argument in "America the Great" concerning the legal and practical possibility of joining the United States rather than the European Union. Several of the messages – the longest ones – are to professors and experts in the fields of political science and law in non-United States countries – especially in countries threatened by the current government of mainland China, including Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, the Philippines, and Australia. As he neared the end of the process of drafting these, it occurred to the author that a collection of the messages could be of interest to the general world-wide public. The message to the Philippines, which closes this collection, is perhaps the most important, due to its discussion of naval military issues, and ought also to be read by Australians as if directed to them. New Zealanders should consider the Australian and Philippines messages as also directed to them. The author has added a 27 page addendum concerning the sources of his assertion of expertise in military and diplomatic strategy. This addendum is original material not in "America the Great" and not included in any of the messages.

Book Description
A business fable on the power of mentors and essential keys to success in business, life, and relationships When it comes to personal and professional success, few relationships prove more vital and powerful than that of mentor and student. Unfortunately, most of us seldom gain access to a thoughtful mentor who can help guide us to success in whatever we do. In the format of a business fable, The Great Ones reveals the importance of mentors and the pivotal difference a great mentor can have on one’s life. This parable follows a wise old man as he shares his pearls of wisdom with a young boy about to go out into the world on his own. Through these poignant and sometimes painful lessons, the boy learns to navigate life’s minefields, develop sound judgment, apply the law of accumulation, cement the value of giving your all, assess risk and reward, and much more. In the end, he unlocks the treasures within that we all need to become a “Great One”. • A business fable that teaches critical and needed skills for life-long success in business • Reveals the ageless power of the mentor/student relationship • Perfect for anyone seeking to succeed in their chosen field who can benefit from a personal mentor • A classic guide for novice and veteran entrepreneurs looking to get to the next level Life—and business—wrought with endless ups and downs, calls out for the wisdom of a dedicated mentor and friend to help you get through them successfully. The Great Ones acts as the perfect success guide for anyone on the path to business achievement.

Book Description
The Great Book is a fresh, new translation of the Word of God. It reads so smoothly that it doesn't even seem to be a translation, though it is painstakingly accurate according to the best Greek manuscripts. The true meaning that God intended comes through loud and clear - in plain English! Because The Great Book communicates so well, it can be used effectively in many ways: For teaching kids of all ages - especially teenagers. For teaching English to non-native speakers. For those who have never read the Bible before. For prison ministries. For evangelistic outreaches in America. For missionary distribution programs around the world. The Great Book is written at a 5th grade reading level in order to reach the greatest number of people in the world. The original Greek New Testament was Koine (common) Greek. Let's face it, we could all use a little help with the most difficult New Testament books such as Romans, Galatians, Hebrews, and Revelation!

Book Description
This is no ordinary missions book. The theme isn't new, but the approach is refreshing and compelling, as contributors David Platt, Louie Giglio, Michael Ramsden, Ed Stetzer, Michael Oh, David Mathis, and John Piper take up the mantle of the Great Commission and its Spirit-powered completion. From astronomy to exegesis, from apologetics to the Global South, from being missional at home to employing our resources in the global cause, Finish the Mission aims to breathe fresh missionary fire into a new generation, as together we seek to reach the unreached and engage the unengaged.
