All Roads Lead to ZionWilliam Edmund
Keep the peace… so reads the order from the Emperor, Tiberius.
A veteran Roman officer is assigned to keep the peace in Judea. More than 1400 miles from the seat of government, under-manned and under-financed, Centurion Gaius Julius Comminus struggles to maintain order. As the Jewish people gather for Passover, a madman haunts the roads of Zion bent on the murder and plunder of Roman citizens. And in Jerusalem a young rabbi, Jesus of Nazareth, who has been heralded by many as the Messiah prophesied to save the people from their oppressors, spurs political intrigue and secret mutterings of rebellion.
Peace, is not going to come easy.

Absalom's PillarC. Sheldon Smith
Absalom, son of David driven by pride, seeking revenge, prophesied to reject his father and family and lead a rebellion that would bring the kingdom of Israel to its knees...
Both Absalom, angered by the injustices heaped upon him, and David's wife Bathsheba, whose punishment for her transgression never ceased, struggled against God's Anointed One. For Bathsheba, it was a struggle for mercy and redemption. For Absalom, his pride and righteous anger, epitomized by his pillar, led to sedition and ultimately a climactic showdown with his father on the battlefield.
Built on years of biblical and historical study, Absalom's Pillar tackles the narrow distinction between quest for justice and quest for self, and serves as an allegory of God's relationship with His rebellious people.

The Innocence of GodT. Russell Benedict
We have lost our innocence, and thereby, we struggle with God. Why does He allow evil to exist? Why is He hard to find sometimes? Who is He? Why does Hell exist? Why does the family exist? Why did He give us so many rules to follow? How can we truly know and understand Him? Better yet, how can we approach Him, and know Him as FRIEND, LORD, KING, and SAVIOR?
What is the key?
One of the all too often overlooked keys to understanding the personality of God is found in HIS simple Innocence, something that more deeply explains His love, His purity, His holiness, His mercy, His justice, His character, and so many other things about Him.
If you are ready to know God deeper, appreciate Him more fully, and be changed in the process, then this book was written for you.
