Jesus said that redemption eternal salvation is available to everyone. No one is beyond His reach; no one falls outside the boundaries of His willingness to forgive. Anyone who calls on Him will be saved, He says. But, does that really include names like Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Susan Atkins, Charles Tex Watson, Sean Sellers, David Berkowitz, and Karla Faye Tucker? Redeemed Unredeemable: When America s Most Notorious Criminals Came Face to Face with God features a close look into the lives of infamous members of the Manson Family disciples such as Susan Atkins and Charles Tex Watson, as well as serial killer Ted Bundy, Milwaukee Monster Jeffrey Dahmer, Son of Sam David Berkowitz, Pickaxe Killer Karla Faye Tucker, and parent-killer Sean Sellers.

IS THE NEXT GREAT AWAKENING RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER? In the midst of intense global societal discord persecution, rights activism, racial tension, intense political hostility, and the resurgence of anti-establishment counterculture many have lost faith in governments and even in church leadership to provide answers and stability. But this feeling this underlying sensation that pricks our national cognition with a constant needling, demanding to be fought against and yet powerful enough that it inspires hopeless demoralization has occurred before. From the Bohemian Reformation of John Wycliffe and Jan Hus in the 1300s to the Jesus People of the 60s and 70s, every era ripe with public dejection and faith-drought foreshadowed spiritual awakenings. These often began in the unlikeliest of places by the most inconceivable of personalities, and then spread like uncontrollable brushfires across the land resulting in millions surrendering their hearts and lives to the Lord. As today s world becomes more desperate to experience such personal meaning and social healing, the world is inadvertently moving toward another Great Awakening! IN FINAL FIRE, YOU WILL LEARN: How God used simple men, women, and youth of the past unqualified by human and finite standards to irreversibly change the world. What practices were employed that reformed traditional religious rituals into personal relationships with Christ, and how those methods are poised to be repeated in the near future. Why the age of social networking through virtual technology is keeping families and communities from real human relationships, how this relates to an international and spiritual hunger for revival, and how this very same technology will pave the way for an even vaster spreading of the Gospel. Which current events are now contributing to the largescale unrest mankind all feels, and how this is lining up to unleash what these authors believe to be the Greatest Awakening yet! Evidence from around the globe that the Awakening may have already started, and will be joined by growing demonstrations of miracles, healings, prophetic visions, and angels in the days just ahead!

Since the fall of mankind, death has been an unavoidable element faced by each man and woman who walks this planet. For some, this subject is the source of great anxiety, while others accept this to be a natural part of life. For those with a religious belief system, convictions therein play a great role in what a person feels can be anticipated when this life is concluded. But, what does the Bible say on this matter? How does one reconcile such elements as the Near-Death or Out-of-Body Experience to his or her religious views? Is there really an Afterlife, or do we cease to exist when we die? In Afterlife, you will read: Real-life stories of Near-Death and Out-of-Body experiences as told by those who experienced them What quantum physics, quantum consciousness, and neuroscience teach us about the manifestation of life after death What it really means to communicate with the dead About the surprising implications made through the Shroud of Turin, and how this single artifact could revolutionize your view of religion How ancient cultural and religious views impact what you believe about the Afterlife Where ambiguous phrases such as Abrahams Bosom and Purgatory originated and what they really mean Where tough questions such as: If God is such a loving God, why does He send people to Hell? are tackled. The truth about the origins and conditions of Heaven and Hell, and how modern deceptions and misconceptions could misdirect where you spend eternity How resurrection proves the existence of God Surprising elements about our future, resurrected bodies How to prepare for the Afterlife so that you can live forever!

When Rudolph’s red nose hit the screens in homes across the nation in 1964 via Rankin & Bass’ holiday movie special entitled Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, people everywhere fell in love with this glowy-snouted oddball. When the outcast heroically saved Christmas by guiding Santa’s sleigh through a stormy Christmas Eve, the world cheered as his eccentricity became the source of his triumph. But when the film ended without redemption for those many exiled toys which he met on the Island of Misfit Toys, public outcry was so strong that production was re-initiated and the movie’s ending was modified to include a resolution for these other banished playthings. Why was this necessary? Viewer protest was strong enough to prompt a validation for these misfits for a profound reason: deep down, each of us sees a little of ourselves in outcasts. We relate to those who do not fit in, are regarded as unlovable, or are simply perceived as “odd.” And, it is each of our deep-seeded desire to see this ostracization reversed; to see the outcast find a place to belong; and for the unloved to find comfort and affection. By leaving the toys behind, it was as though the statement being made was that such oddballs deserved to be left behind as well―and people were allowing no such standard to be raised. Many of us have an inner misfit: a lonely or out-of-place individual who we often keep hidden. Behind the veil of success, wealth, charm, charisma, humor, I’ve-got-it-together-isms, and many other types of fronts, hides segments of ourselves that we often keep out of view of others. The result is a deep type of isolation and separation from our communities, our families, friends, and sometimes even the Body of Christ and our God-ordained calling. We hide our true selves because of fear, insecurity, guardedness, and a seeming certainty that we are the only one who feels the way we do. But this is a lie, designed to keep us from reaching our potential in many ways; and to keep us feeling as though we are all alone. What can we learn from the outcast playthings of the 1964 stop action film: The Charlie in the Box, the spotted elephant, the seemingly unblemished Dolly for Sue, a square-wheeled caboose, the squirt gun that only shoots jelly, or the other exiles? The answer is quite enlightening, and, when pursued to its fullest, could lead to a life of connection with family, peers and church. It could empower us to find our God-ordained calling; to see ourselves with new, grace-filled eyes, and even unleash us to embrace our destiny.
