Lessons from the Life of Jesus: Practical Insights from the Gospels has always been one of the most popular downloads on this site and is now even better! The new, expanded, third edition includes five new chapters – enhancing an already helpful book and adding many new practical lessons.
Rather than simply retelling the story of the life of Jesus, this e-book focuses on some of the details of the Gospel narratives that are easy to miss, but which can help us to better understand his life and teachings. In each case there are lessons we can learn and apply – sometimes with the potential for an effect on our lives that is well out of proportion to the seemingly small detail that conveys the lesson.
Enrich your understanding of the life and work of Jesus and take away lessons you can apply today. You can download a copy in any of three formats – .pdf, .epub, and .mobi – to read on your computer, smart phone, or e-book reader.

It’s often said that the best Bible is the one you will read. But given that basic truth, some Bible translations are better than others. Some translations make studying easier and more enjoyable, some are easier to memorize, and some are more accurate and profitable to study – getting as close as possible to what the biblical writers wrote and helping us to better understand their message.
That’s where our new, free, e-book comes in. Which Bible Should I Use? is designed and written to help you choose and use the best translation for your needs – and that could be one you have not heard of before. On the other hand, perhaps the best Bible for you is the one you are using now. But even if it is, this book may be worth your time by helping you to assess the version you are using, to know more about its strengths and limitations, and to get the most from it. You may also discover other translations in this book that complement the Bible you are now using – for even greater understanding and engagement with the Scriptures!

Is it unchristian to resort to force in the defense of oneself or others? The new book, The Christian and Self-Defense, by R. Herbert looks first at the biblical verses that are often used by those who claim that defending oneself or others from harm is unscriptural. It then looks at those verses that Christian advocates of self-defense feel allow and encourage self-defense. Finally, The Christian and Self-Defense looks at the issue of avoiding the need for self-defense where possible and examines practical defensive options that can help to keep you and your loved ones safe.
