What influence did Alexander the Great have on the nation of Israel? Why was the Old Testament written in Hebrew whereas the New Testament is written in Greek?

Reverend Larry E. Willige, co-founder of Pastors Helping Pastors - an innovative international ministry focused on meeting the needs of today's Pastors, has served the Lord, along with his wife, Beverly, for over 36 years - helping build two churches and pioneering two churches of their own. Rev. Willige operates in the prophetic ministry and has a special anointing to pray for people with back problems, as evidenced by the many healing testimonies that have come forth over the years. In 1979, Rev's. Larry and Beverly graduated from RHEMA Bible College in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, USA. In obedience to God, they took the last $13.00 they had and established LaBev Ministries Church, opening Word of Faith Fellowship, a non-denominational, charismatic church, on New Year's Eve of 1981. In 1990, the Lord provided an opportunity for Rev's. Larry and Beverly to minister in East Germany. While there, God touched their hearts in a mighty way to help the people of Europe. Since then, they have shared the truth of God's Word extensively in Germany, Switzerland, Canada and Colombia, South America. Using their experience as pastors, and their desire to help the people of Europe, God birthed a new vision in their hearts; Pastors Helping Pastors. Their mission: "To use all things that happened to us for the furtherance of the Gospel." (Philippians 1:12). On December 30, 2005, Rev's. Larry and Beverly Willige retired as pastors of Word of Faith Fellowship, and stepped full time into traveling throughout the world sharing the Word of Faith and helping pastors. In 2006 Rev's Larry and Beverly Willige relocated to Lakeland, Florida. When Rev. Willige is not traveling, he enjoys watching sports and playing golf, where he uses the skills he obtained prior to serving the Lord as a professional golfer for 20 years in the Professional Golfers Association of America (PGA). During that time (20 years) he served as a Certified High School Basketball Official for the State of Alabama officiating High School and small College Basketball. In addition to pastoring, Rev. Willige served 17 years as Regional Director for the RHEMA Ministerial Association International (Office of a Bishop). He also served faithfully for 20 years as Chaplain of the Eureka Fire Department. When he stepped down as Chaplin, the Missouri State Senate gave him a commendation for his 20 years of service to the Fire Department. Rev. Willige was also chosen as Eureka, Missouri's 2005 "Citizen of the Year".

This book reveals the problems that we have today that are destroying the things that God has established. The picture of the family has been so distorted because of divorce, living together without marriage, homosexual marriage and lifestyle, transvestites, and many other things, that it does not resemble what God established at all. The government has been corrupt ever since it has been in place, although many want to say we have, or have had a Christian government that is not so. There is no such thing as a Christian government. Look at the horrible things the government has sanctioned down through the years. The treatment of the native Americans, by killing them and taking their land through trickery or force. Look at slavery, the most horrendous thing this country has ever done is enslaving black folks for two hundred fifty years, and after they received freedom they were still treated as inferior and not welcome by white folks. The blacks have had to struggle and fight for every little bit of freedom and civil rights they have and still we have a nation full of prejudice against the descendants of former slaves. If anybody should be treated with the utmost respect it should be them. The church in America does not resemble the early church at all, weak preachers, who fear man more than God. The church is totally segregated in American, the white church still is so prejudice in the south that they do not want to associate with any blacks. Unless the white Christians repent of their prejudice and get right with black Christians, God will never bless our churches again. Dr. McElhaney holds a Th.D. lives in Sweetwater, TN. With his wife and youngest son. His passion is teaching the sacred scriptures.

Based on Biblical principles, Bro. Awodele leads the reader through the process of how God transforms and empowers us to be Godly leaders.

Dr. Duane "Chip" Anderson CEO/International Director Christ for the City International, Inc. In this book, Bro. Femi focuses on the importance of a leader's moral integrity and the connection between the leader's nurture and nature. As specified in the book, the Holy Spirit can help us overcome our shortcomings.

I never chose the life that I led, nor have I sought after it. I never asked to be chosen, but at a young age, they came for me, trained me in the ways of my ancestors and gave me a new name. My identity became what they made of me. Some claimed that I was a Shaman in the order of my great-grandfather, others, a warrior like in the legends of old. They claimed it was written in my name, and that his power ran through my veins. What they didn't tell me is that in the beginning, I was pre-destined. Before the foundations of the world were laid, I was set apart. When I was in the womb, I was anointed and when I was born, prophesied over. What has been known since the beginning, was concealed from my sight until the appointed time. Babylon had her plans for me, but the plans of the Most High God prevailed! My name is Charles Gates Jr, and I am an ex-occultist, born again believer in Jesus Christ, and an anointed vessel of the Most High God. From Darkness to Light: A Sinner's Memoir is the memoir of how the Lord reached his hand into the uttermost corners of darkness to pull me out of Satan's grip. I am the first of many in a rising army that carries an anointing to usher in one of the greatest prophetic movements in history. I was born for such a time as this! You were also born for such a time as this. I am fully convinced that my story is the beginning of many others; not only the continuation of my journey, but also the beginning of yours. Find out where it all began in the first installment of my prophetic journey: From Darkness to Light: A Sinner's Memoir.

When I was a kid I had little to no idea what poetry was. I mean I thought that it was just rhyming words, like "Roses are red Violets are blue....Fill in the blank. But at some point poetry became more to me than rhyming words. Poetry for me became what it had always been for us all, the hearts truest form of expression placed on paper. In my book I share poetry from all the way back from 1999-2016. My greatest hope in my book is that you may find your own expressions written down on paper. You will read poems that make you laugh, cry, mourn, and come to conclusions that you may have been searching for but have never found. Ultimately I hope that my work encourages you, makes you think, so to find and create your own hearts expression that is authentically you. William H. Bynum III was born in Anchorage AK, 1979.

Marriages are misunderstood and demanding. Most people get married and throw in the towel all too early. They quickly realize that marriage is work.

As a refugee, I would like the world to know that every person included under the term "refugee" has a unique story, one that shows what people go through when forced to flee from their homeland and deal with traumatizing experiences.The life stories of many people displaced by war, genocide, and other human rights violations remain unheard. Therefore, it is important to make the world hear the stories directly from the voice of the victims who have experienced them.The right of every individual to live and prosper must be exercised in every corner of our planet. No mother must have to watch her child die a premature death. No child must be made to live without parents because they were killed in search of food for their children. No son must be killed because he refuses to bear arms to kill a fellow human being. Let no father be slaughtered in front of his family. The world must say no to an injustice of any kind, anywhere and at any time. As Martin Luther King Jr. rightly said: " injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." As children of God, it is important to love and care for one another. It is a commandment from God to love.The story you are about to read is a true story of a victim of war who traveled through refugee camps in Africa, longing to be accepted in a peaceful country to fulfill the dream of becoming human again.

HAND OVER THE JADE HEART OR ELSE! Trouble is brewing in Cascade Valley, Tennessee, for single mom, Shayla Lornette. The Note left on her register, when her beloved shop is ransacked, demands she hand over the Jade Heart-or else. Knowing she and her twin siblings are in danger, but with no idea who left the note or even what the note is referring to, she turns to the man who broke her heart four years ago. Shayla welcomes Josiah''s help, but with a guarded heart. She simply refuses to trust her heart with Josiah again. After running from the love of his life four years ago, Josiah Sawyer never expected to see Shayla again-much less to find her unconscious in her dad''s shop on the corner of Main Street. He knows Shayla will never forgive him for leaving her; but when she and the twins are threatened, he''ll do everything he can to protect them. There''s no way Josiah will let them face this unknown enemy alone. But keeping his heart guarded while protecting them proves difficult the more he reconnects with Shayla; and all the while, her stalker keeps growing the more and more desperate. Josiah and Shayla must lay their past aside in order to solve the mystery of the Jade Heart. But will they solve it in time before her stalker ups the stakes? Can they work together while guarding their hearts? Or will God rekindle the love they thought they''d lost forever?

Benjamin and Philip would meet at the United States Military Academy at West Point. Neither had any living family members and so, the isolation and rigors of cadet life created an environment where they quickly became like brothers. They were brilliant young scholars . . . destined to graduate number one and number two in their class of 1862. But, in April of 1861, Fort Sumter happened and war loomed. These two were not warriors by nature, but if their country called, they were prepared to fight . . . and fight hard. In a Civil War, however, that meant their two countries (North and South) were now sworn enemies - for Benjamin was a native Pennsylvanian and Philip hailed from Virginia. War was heart-breaking, but this would become the cruelest of them all because fate, being oblivious to common decency, would set these two "brothers" against each other.Only one would survive the deadly contest. He would bury the other on the field of battle in hopes of retrieving his body at the conclusion of war . . .God willing. That is, once he found a way to remove the large white stone that had come to rest on top of the makeshift grave site. Was this chance? Was this fate? Or did God have a plan? p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: justify; font: 9.0px Garamond}Born and raised in Wheaton, Maryland, Hank was the second of four children to Bob and Jane Perry.

Life wasn''t easy for author Julie Anne L. Jamerson. She didn''t have the ideal relationship with her family, which led to turbulent moments that shaped many of her life''s insecurities.

As I sit at my desk just thinking and thanking God for loving and caring so much for me, I can now say that the Lord has been there for me since the day I was conceived. I know in my heart that without God''s guidance, I am nothing. The object of this book is to open the eyes of those who are lost, those who might be saved but are walking in their own way. Yes, we are out there. This is not to put anyone down but to encourage us to pray for our brothers and sisters in the Lord.The devil is not worried about the lost as much as he is about God''s servants. I am not just telling my testimony for someone to read; I''m telling and writing to glorify God. No matter what you are going through, God, our Lord and Savior, is there with you.Psalm 23, The Lord is my Shepard, I shall not want. He maketh me lay down in green pastures, He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul, He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name''s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy Rod and Thy staff comfort me. Thou prepareth a table before me in the presence of my enemies; Thou annointeth my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. (Ps 23)God''s Word is life. Love youFrom the desk of the Evangelist

Her God-given passion to bring Christ focused community health care to women and children propelled Barb Hartwig into a life of adventure, but more importantly, a life of trusting God. Liberia was her first missionary nurse assignment. Due to civil instability, she transferred to Ghana where she pioneered a community health program for others to emulate. Those years of previous service enabled her to design and start a training program, in South Sudan, for clinic and community health workers plus traditional midwife training. His guardian angels were present during a complex detention at a border situation, a dodging bullets scenario, an armed robbery and a plane crash. Barb''s experiences and predicaments during 30 years of gospel ministry will inspire others to keep on trusting God no matter what. The Bible tells us to forget not all His benefits. This is her testimony to God''s faithfulness in the life of an ordinary person.
