Is agreeing to disagree good enough for God's family? Christians don't necessarily agree with each other when it comes to questions of religious pluralism, homosexuality, the role of government, abortion, and war. Too often, we manage these disagreements by ignoring them. Yet we are called to engage the world for the sake of Christ. How can we be effective if we avoid society's most pressing questions? In 10 Issues That Divide Christians, Alex McFarland challenges Christ-followers to drill down to the biblical core of ten current issues--such as social justice, evil and suffering, pornography, and environmentalism, among others--and echoes the biblical invitation: "Come let us reason together." Only by engaging the Scriptures deeply, thinking clearly, and speaking truthfully can we in God's family address our differences and discover the peace that comes with unity of purpose. With the Bible as our guidebook and the Spirit as our guide, we can respond to today's urgent questions with the mind of Christ.
***Please note that this ebook does not contain the photo insert that appears in the print book.*** The ash of Mt. Vesuvius preserves a living record of the complex and exhilarating society it instantly obliterated two thousand years ago. In this highly readable, lavishly illustrated book, Alex Butterworth and Ray Laurence marshal cutting-edge archaeological reconstructions and a vibrant historical tradition dating to Pliny and Tacitus; they present a richly textured portrait of a society not altogether unlike ours, composed of individuals ordinary and extraordinary who pursued commerce, politics, family and pleasure in the shadow of a killer volcano. Deeply resonant in a world still at the mercy of natural disaster, Pompeii recreates life as experienced in the city, and those frantic, awful hours in AD 79 that wiped the bustling city from the face of the earth.

Orphenn is an orphan, and he was beginning to think that that was all he would ever be. So when a strange woman who calls herself his sister spirits him away and hurls him into another universe, he felt absolutely overwhelmed. Family, friends, and allies await him there-three things that were beyond an orphan's wildest dreams. Only afterward does he find the truth about his family: that his twin sisters began as triplets, and that the third sister, who had murdered their parents, was leading a comeback to conquer the world of Aleida. With their squadron, the White Herons, and Aleida's mutant army, Orphenn and his companions must overcome his sister's conquest and destroy her nation. But how can they destroy their own sibling? Separate dimensions, mutants, families, bonds, turncoats, rebellion, and betrayal-Enma is a riveting story of dreams and gifts. In this world of cliche vampires and overused werewolves, Hughes's world of conquest and romance is a breath of fresh air. In her unique, dramatic style, she writes of the hardships Orphenn and his newfound family must endure in a time of civil war, in a universe beside our own.
