Awarded 5 Stars by Midwest Book Review! "Author Fletcher King strives to be as true to medieval history and culture as possible, particularly with regard to what is known of the Catholic church during the era... Its vivid detail paints an unforgettable picture..." The year is A.D. 882, and in the medieval kingdom of Speyron, infertility plagues the people. Rumors abound. Some whisper that the kingdom is cursed, others that the people are on the brink of rebellion, and still others say that the kingdom will soon be ruled by a new king. The current king of Speyron, a young and handsome bachelor, seems oblivious to the plight of his people and unconcerned with the rumors as he monitors the gathering army of the neighboring kingdom preparing to wage war against him. Can he repel this invader? What must he do and what alliance must he make to ensure the safety of his throne? Some of his advisers believe that a serf, a lowly woman from an obscure village, may have an answer.

The book of Isaiah was written hundreds of years before Jesus was born. But it contains many predictions about His birth, life, and death.

Advent, says Fleming Rutledge, is not for the faint of heart. As the midnight of the Christian year, the season of Advent is rife with dark, gritty realities. In this book, with her trademark wit and wisdom, Rutledge explores Advent as a time of rich paradoxes, a season celebrating at once Christ’s incarnation and his second coming, and she masterfully unfolds the ethical and future-oriented significance of Advent for the church.
Lift the flaps to discover the story of Advent.
Advent is an intentional season marked by reflections on hope, peace, joy, and love as we remember and anticipate the coming of Christ, but Advent is not marked only by reflection and waiting. During this uniquely Christian season, disciples of Jesus are also called to act in specific ways that, however small, God wants to use for kingdom purposes. In COME PEASANT, KING Olivia Metcalf reminds us that, as we prepare our hearts and lives for the coming of Christ, we also engage in a willingness to fully surrender to the call of God on our lives, wherever that may lead us.
A major new work on the Dead Sea Scrolls, the oldest sacred documents of Judaism, which reveals their surprising connections to early Christianity. “A luminous treatment of a fascinating subject! Highly recommended!”—Scott Hahn, author of The Fourth Cup From award-winning scholar John Bergsma comes an intriguing book that reveals new insights on the Essenes, a radical Jewish community predating Christianity, whose existence, beliefs, and practices are often overlooked in the annuls of history. Bergsma reveals how this Jewish sect directly influenced the beliefs, sacraments, and practices of early Christianity and offers new information on how Christians lived their lives, worshipped, and eventually went on to influence the Roman Empire and Western civilization. Looking to Hebrew scripture and Jewish tradition, Bergsma helps to further explain how a simple Jewish peasant could go on to inspire a religion and a philosophy that still resonates 2,000 years later. In this enriching and exciting exploration, Bergsma demonstrates how the Dead Sea Scrolls—the world's greatest modern archaeological discovery—can shed light on the Church as a sacred society that offered hope, redemption, and salvation to its member. Ultimately, these mysterious writings are a time machine that can transport us back to the ancient world, deepen our appreciation of Scripture, and strengthen our understanding of the Christian faith. “An accessible introduction . . . This is a handy entry point for readers unfamiliar with Essenes or those interested in the Dead Sea Scrolls.”—Publishers Weekly
