The book of Ruth is more than just a storge love story. The book of Ruth is a compelling story of transitional commitment to a new and different way of life and a new beginning of a relationship with the true and only Heavenly Father.

Apples of Gold in Settings of Silver: Applied Christianity 301 is the third and final part of a three-part series. It contains the third set of compilation of my favourite scriptures and quotes on different topics that would pass as words aptly spoken. The entire series was inspired by Proverbs 25:11 – “A word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” (NIV) It is the truth spoken to the body of Christ in love that will make every one of us grow and become like Him; with each and every one getting involved. Each chapter concludes with a section called “Apple Seeds”; these “apple seeds” are nuggets intended by the author to emphasize key points of the chapter and then invites the reader to identify their own “Apple seeds” so the reading of the book is not just a ritual but an experience. So I recommend that you “read with a pencil!” Walk The Talk, Live The Faith, Build On The Rock

This book compares New Testament and Rabbinical texts in order to recover the oral tradition accompanying the written Biblical text. Although New Testament Greek is a hellenistic idiom, it reflects a Semitic rather than a hellenistic culture. Therefore, Culbertson looks to Jewish sources in order to understand the Greek text, rather than to the philosophical, methodological, and literary sources of hellenistic culture. The author uses specific examples to illustrate various literary theories and to prove the value of a Listener Response Analysis of Gospel texts. A dozen parables are discussed in detail.

A collection of true stories; some written by Paul Burkhardt, including his testimony, and some written by his wife, Jo Anne Burkhardt, including her testimony.
