The Simplicity of Preaching - Jonathon D. Woodyard, P. Chase Sears

The fundamentals of preaching are central to the life the church. Revisit them in this crucial guide for beginner and veteran preachers alike. When a preacher stands in the pulpit or at the lectern, he aims to help GodÂ’s people understand what God has said and how it applies to their lives so that they grow in their knowledge of God and are equipped to live for his glory. ItÂ’s a job with eternal significance, so the process of getting to that point is crucial. Jonathon Woodyard and Chase Sears encourage us to go back to the basics. Returning to the fundamentals of preaching from time to time, reminding ourselves of our basic undertaking, is a wise strategy for faithfulness and helpful to both veteran and novice. Preaching flows from a man who has seen great things in the Bible, has savored what he has seen, and is eager to stand before GodÂ’s people to say what he saw. This is the pattern we follow in The Simplicity of Preaching. The authors highlight some strategies you can employ to see what the text says; ways you can help yourself savor the glorious truths of the Bible; and good homiletical practices that inform how you can most effectively say things from the pulpit. This short book is helpfully divided into five sections: 1. What is Preaching and Why Do We Need It?2. The Role of the Spirit in Preparing to Preach3. Seeing: How We See Before We Say4. Savoring What We See5. How We Say What We Have Savored Fresh look at fundamentals of preachingFor veteran and novice preachersForeword by Dean Inserra; afterword by John Piper

Religion and the Decline of Magic - Sir Keith Thomas

Witchcraft, astrology, divination and every kind of popular magic flourished in England during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, from the belief that a blessed amulet could prevent the assaults of the Devil to the use of the same charms to recover stolen goods. At the same time the Protestant Reformation attempted to take the magic out of religion, and scientists were developing new explanations of the universe. Keith Thomas s classic analysis of beliefs held on every level of English society begins with the collapse of the medieval Church and ends with the changing intellectual atmosphere around 1700, when science and rationalism began to challenge the older systems of belief.

The Hobbit Facsimile First Edition - J. R. R. Tolkien

This sumptuous gift set includes a replica of the very rare first edition of The Hobbit, the only edition where one can now read the original version of the story before Tolkien re-edited it to become the one enjoyed by readers since 1951.The Hobbit was published on 21 September 1937, with a print run of 1,500 copies. With a beautiful cover design, nearly a dozen black white illustrations and two black red maps by the author himself, the book proved to be popular and was reprinted shortly afterwards. History was already being made.The scarcity of the first edition has resulted in copies commanding huge prices, way beyond the reach of most Tolkien fans. In addition, subsequent changes to the text â “ particularly those to chapter 5, when Tolkien decided in 1947 to revise the text to bring it better into accord with events as they were developing in its â ˜sequelâ ™, The Lord of the Rings â “ mean that the opportunity to read the book in its original form and format has become quite difficult.This special printing reprints the first edition, so that readers of all ages â “ not just â ˜children between the ages of 5 and 9â ™, as Rayner Unwin famously declared in his report on the original submission â “ can finally enjoy Tolkienâ ™s story as it originally appeared.

The Conspiracy Against the Human Race - Thomas Ligotti

His fiction is known to be some of the most terrifying in the genre of supernatural horror, but Thomas Ligotti s first nonfiction book may be even scarier. At once a guidebook to pessimistic thought and a relentless critique of humanity s employment of self-deception to cope with the pervasive suffering of their existence, The Conspiracy against the Human Race may just convince readers that there is more than a measure of truth in the despairing yet unexpectedly liberating negativity that is widely considered a hallmark of Ligotti s work.

Lords of the Bow - Conn Iggulden

The action-packed second novel in the No. 1 bestselling Conqueror series, bringing to the epic story of Genghis Khan brilliantly to lifeThe gathering of the tribes of the Mongols has been a long time in coming but finally, triumphantly, Temujin of the Wolves, Genghis Khan, is given the full accolade of the overall leader and their oaths.Now he can begin to meld all the previously warring people into one army, one nation. But the task Genghis has set himself and them is formidable. He is determined to travel to the land of the long-time enemy, the Chin and attack them there. The distances and terrain-the wide deserts, the impenetrable mountains-make it a difficult venture even for the legendary Mongolian speed of movement, but the greatest problem is that of the complex fortifications, a way of fighting wars of a settled urban population which the nomadic Mongolians had never come across. Finding ways to tackle that and keeping his tribes together in a strange environment presents another new and exciting challenge for Genghis Khan.Not only must Genghis succeed in this incredible campaign, but he must also reconcile the restless factions among his own generals, mediate between his ambitious brothers and cope with his own reactions to his growing sons. The young warrior has become a notable and victorious military commander of thousands: he must now learn to become a great leader of peoples of many different races and religions.Lords of the Bow is a deeply satisfying novel. It is epic in scope, convincing, and fascinating in the narration of an extraordinary story. Above all Genghis Khan continues to dominate the scene as he matures from the young boy of Wolf of the Plains to the great Conqueror.
