Book Description
Today, creation is in distress, human beings hurt one another with increasing violence, and church communities use numbers—head counts and dollars—to measure faithfulness. Yet the health of soul, community, and creation are so intricately interwoven that we cannot have one healthy without the others. Rising with the Morning Star invites us to move out of the depths of ashes to the heights of Easter, where we can experience the heart and wholeness of all. In this journey, we travel with and toward Christ, the Morning Star, and so participate in God's abundant healing of soul, community, and creation. Includes a complete leader's study guide.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Red Rising thrilled readers and announced the presence of a talented new author. Golden Son changed the game and took the story of Darrow to the next level. Now comes the exhilarating next chapter in the Red Rising Saga: Morning Star. ITW THRILLER AWARD FINALIST • “[Brown’s] achievement is in creating an uncomfortably familiar world of flaw, fear, and promise.”—Entertainment Weekly Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Gold overlords demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his people. But Darrow is determined to fight back. Risking everything to transform himself and breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive the cutthroat rivalries that breed Society’s mightiest warriors, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution that will tear the hierarchy apart from within. Finally, the time has come. But devotion to honor and hunger for vengeance run deep on both sides. Darrow and his comrades-in-arms face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy. Among them are some Darrow once considered friends. To win, Darrow will need to inspire those shackled in darkness to break their chains, unmake the world their cruel masters have built, and claim a destiny too long denied—and too glorious to surrender. Praise for Morning Star “There is no one writing today who does shameless, Michael Bay–style action set pieces the way Brown does. The battle scenes are kinetic, bloody, breathless, crazy. Everything is on fire all the time.”—NPR “Morning Star is this trilogy’s Return of the Jedi. . . . The impactful battles that make up most of Morning Star are damn near operatic. . . . It absolutely satisfies.”—Tordotcom “Excellent . . . Brown’s vivid, first-person prose puts the reader right at the forefront of impassioned speeches, broken families, and engaging battle scenes . . . as this interstellar civil war comes to a most satisfying conclusion.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “A page-turning epic filled with twists and turns . . . The conclusion to Brown’s saga is simply stellar.”—Booklist (starred review) Don’t miss any of Pierce Brown’s Red Rising Saga: RED RISING • GOLDEN SON • MORNING STAR • IRON GOLD • DARK AGE • LIGHT BRINGER

Book Description
Morning Star Rising at its core is a love story, love story about Gods love for humanity in sending an angel to the city to see if there is any fruit in it before it is destroyed. An angel visits to find a remnant, so it can be saved. This spiritual world is lead by this angel from heaven who comes to the city with the gospel of peace. One world is the society consisting of laws that support sexual immorality. The god of this world, the ruler of the spiritual world influences the affairs of this world. Another world lived spiritually by faith, hope and love, coexists within this fallen world. A grass roots effort emerges with men such as Terry, Matt and Ben challenge the culture and laws of Tobin. Rachel and Kate shine as lights to champion the rights of women and children. They embrace a belief in a power greater than themselves. They shine as lights within dark places. In a world and society that is darkened in the areas of sensuality and sexuality, there is an absence of true love. Pleasure is a dominant feature within the reign of the notorious Mayor Tobin. The popular city named Babel for all its complexity and duality is influenced by this fallen star, Lucifer. The story is about the rise and fall of one star for a new star to rise- Son of the Morning Star. The protagonists of the story must face the challenges of their past if they are to be victorious over any future struggles. The brightest star, Christ represents the Sun that rises in the morning, dissipates darkness. This star rises within the hearts and minds of men and women who embrace eternity. This is the idea behind Morning Star Rising

Book Description
If You Love God's Word You Will Love This New Testament! The Disciples' Literal New Testament sets you free from our artificial 460 year old chapter and verse structure, replacing it with paragraphing that reflects the flow of thought in the original Greek writings. Paragraph headings make that flow of thought explicit to you, speeding your understanding of the NT books. This translation retains the writing style of the apostles themselves, rather than transforming their Greek ways of writing into an elegant or contemporary English writing style, as has been beautifully done so many times. It is the same translation as the author's New Testament TransLine, first published by Zondervan in 2002. Now you can read the New Testament as the original writers intended it, and see it with a clarity formerly available only to those who could carefully study their Greek New Testament. You can even see the difference in writing style between Matthew, Mark and Luke! Used along with your standard Bible version, you will profit from both methods of translation. *Easily grasp the relationship of the whole and the parts of each book with the big-picture overview outlines that use the words of the original author. *Gain quick insight into the flow of thought from descriptive paragraph headings that summarize the main point of each paragraph in its context. *You can visually follow the apostles' thinking because the 'Intelligent Paragraphing' visually displays their main and subordinate thoughts. *The hindrance to your understanding caused by our artificial chapter and verse structure is eliminated by paragraphing based on the Greek writings. *You will more fully appreciate the minds and thinking patterns and intent of the original writers because the translation corresponds more closely to their words and their grammar and their sentence structure. *Deepen and expand your understanding of the New Testament by meditating on the notes containing alternative renderings, explanations of what is being said, and different views of the meaning.
