Today, Roberta talks to Tim Mulgew about his new book The Book of Us: Discovering Ourselves in the Story of the Bible.It’s amazing what else the Bible tells us. Once we move past the history, the science, the origins of mankind and his fall…The things we typically study in the Bible are all dealt with in the first book, Genesis. But what lies beyond that is an amazing collection of our human-ness. The ingredients that make us up and how we misuse them. Our Bible shows us we are “fearfully and wonderfully made” and that we are made “in the image of God” but we take these amazing tools and use them for our own purposes.Our Bible has so much more for us, but we must move beyond milk and desire solid food. We must see ourselves in scripture in order to be able to use it in our daily life.Our human nature has become our excuse – if we could understand it and learn to control it – imagine how our life could be… actually walking with God, actually going where He wants.An alcoholic must first admit he has a problem before the problem can be fixed. But next, he has to decide if he actually wants the problem fixed. When we make ourselves into the god of our own little world…behold, we have our reward. How worthless is that reward compared to what God has for us.The message is beyond salvation, it’s about what comes next once we are saved from our sin. The message is about how we will live our eternal life, starting today.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Today, Roberta talks to E. Ray Moore about the new book Let My Children Go.On March 28, 2002, Christian family leader Dr. James Dobson on his Focus on the Family radio broadcast stated, "In the State of California, if I had I child there, I wouldn't put the youngster in a public school . . . . I think it's time to get our kids out . . . ." American schools receive the highest funding in the world yet consistently rank near the bottom in mathematics, physics, and science. Despite the failings of public schools, more than 80% of evangelical Christians place their children in the public school system, exposing them to physical and moral danger on a daily basis. The Biblical instruction of our children may be the thrust that God could use to restore American society and revive the nation. A fresh obedience by the Church to its God-ordained role in education may be the catalyst for a new Great Awakening.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

In an interview that hits close to home this week, Roberta talks to Alicia Lloyd about the new book Strong to the End: The Simple Service and Sudden Sacrifice of the Martyrs in Haiti, available from Moody publishers.Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13The world reeled. And wept. Our hearts tried to absorb the shockwaves. To make sense of the madness. The peace of a Haitian children’s home and school shattered with cries and fire. And blood. Three beautiful servant hearts murdered . . . brutally. Judes, Davy, and Natalie joined the ranks of that grand company of martyrs in May 2024.When David and Alicia Lloyd opened a children’s home in Haiti, they had no idea how their hearts would soar, humbled by the way God was expanding and blessing the ministry.

This book invites readers to weep, wrestle, rejoice . . . and draw courage from the faithful.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Today, Roberta talks to John G. West about his new book Endowed by Our Creator.The Declaration of Independence proclaims that “all men are created equal” and “are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.” For generations, those hallowed words inspired not only Americans, but millions around the globe. Yet today many Americans are skeptical or confused about the Declaration’s key claims. In this timely book, political scientist John G. West explores the original meaning of the Declaration and shows how its propositions drew support from both the Bible and early modern science. He then documents how science was later misused to overturn the Declaration’s teaching on equality, subvert its understanding of liberty, and justify the creation of a technocratic state that regulates us from cradle to grave. Finally, he reveals new scientific discoveries that are pointing us back to the truths expressed in the Declaration—and he explains why it is urgent that our culture recover them.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.
