The Garden Of Fear

This early work by Robert E. Howard was originally published in 1934 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Garden of Fear' is a story in the James Allison series and tells the tale of a Texan who recalls his past lives as ancient heroes. Robert Ervin Howard was born in Peaster, Texas in 1906. During his youth, his family moved between a variety of Texan boomtowns, and Howard – a bookish and somewhat introverted child – was steeped in the violent myths and legends of the Old South. At fifteen Howard began to read the pulp magazines of the day, and to write more seriously. The December 1922 issue of his high school newspaper featured two of his stories, 'Golden Hope Christmas' and 'West is West'. In 1924 he sold his first piece – a short caveman tale titled 'Spear and Fang' – for $16 to the not-yet-famous Weird Tales magazine. Howard's most famous character, Conan the Cimmerian, was a barbarian-turned-King during the Hyborian Age, a mythical period of some 12,000 years ago. Conan featured in seventeen Weird Tales stories between 1933 and 1936 which is why Howard is now regarded as having spawned the 'sword and sorcery' genre. The Conan stories have since been adapted many times, most famously in the series of films starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Be still and know that I am God. --Psalm 46:10 In a culture that has the motto "the more you do, the more you are," the command of being still seems like the last thing any of us are doing. We may want to be still, but we don't even know where to begin. What does it even mean? How does one learn to be still yet productive and successful in all areas of our life, not just physically but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually as well? Or if you're like me, maybe you've struggled for years with the concept of being still that, to you, being still means to be lazy, unproductive, and ultimately wasting precious time; that it would make you less of a person. But here, we have a calling from God to be still--the opposite of what our culture preaches. Take the journey with me in discovering the success and strength of what it means to be still and know who he is.

Fear—it’s something we all experience. Fears about the future, an illness, or what others might think about us can rule our hearts and steal our joy. Did you know, though, that the Bible commands Christians to fear? Believers are to fear the Lord. But what does that mean? In A Holy Fear, Christina Fox unpacks what the “fear of the Lord” means and what it looks like in our lives. By giving examples of such fear in the Bible, exploring the fruits of that fear in our lives, and uncovering God’s promises to those who fear Him, this book will help you disarm your lesser fears, applying what you learn to your heart and turning to a fear of the Lord.
