From 27 B.C. to A.D. 117, the Roman dreams of boundless empire began to falter. The Caesars had to accept the scale & intractability of the problems posed by the barbarians. For the Romans this was a time when power was passing; for the barbarians it was a time when internal stresses & fear of Roman aggression were creating shifts in the tribal equilibrium. This book sees the clash of cultures from the standpoint of 4 people who ventured beyond the Roman empire. Each portrait reveals different aspects of the Sarmatian, German, & Celtic peoples facing the empire s European frontiers. Together they provide a rich portrait of the classical & Iron Age worlds. Illustrated.

Obtainable Expectations shows the reader how to apply the principles of the Sermon on the Mount in one's life and ministry. 
 This book is far more than just another contribution to biblical studies. It is not meant to be on a shelf next to other commentaries. Instead, it is to be read, studied, and received in such a way that it will bring about lasting changes in the reader's heart and lifestyle. 
 It covers topics that apply to daily living:marriage, divorce, prayer, money, witnessing, relationships, worry, anger, lust, giving, and so many more. Steve Hickey points out that the Sermon on the Mount is the Constitution of the Kingdom of God on Earth and the Beatitudes are the Preamble to that constitution.

Barnabas

Sitting in a park, the author is alone with his main friend: 'It was so peaceful, man to immortal.' Who is this friend? He is the Devil, he is Lucifer. He is life-giving blood and at the same time, he is 'liquid death'. He is. alcohol. Derek's story of his efforts to free body and mind from the power of this constant companion will set you thinking. His determined struggle to recover from the devastating effects of an alcohol-induced stroke will win your admiration. When he confesses his affair with his 'mistress from hell' to his wife, Debbie, she agrees without hesitation to support him throughout his rehabilitation programme. The author asks himself what lured him into a 'relationship' with 'Him': was it boredom, loneliness, a lack of self-worth? Whatever the reason, he concludes that alcoholism is an illness; not something to be proud of, but not something to be ashamed of either. The darkly comic way in which Derek describes his experiences in this inspiring and moving confession reflects his courage and spirit. We hope his 'return ticket' is indefinitely valid. The truth is easy to write, but hard to accept. I have! My brain haemorrhage has given me a second chance, a second chance to live my life for me and not for Him! I hope you enjoy your read.
