David's Jerusalem: Between Memory and History (Routledge Studies in Religion)
by Daniel PioskeThe history of David’s Jerusalem remains one of the most contentious topics of the ancient world. This study engages with debates about the nature of this location by examining the most recent archaeological data from the site and by exploring the relationship of these remains to claims made about David’s royal center in biblical narrative. Daniel Pioske provides a detailed reconstruction of the landscape and lifeways of early 10th century BCE Jerusalem, connected in biblical tradition to the figure of David. He further explores how late Iron Age (the Book of Samuel-Kings) and late Persian/early Hellenistic (the Book of Chronicles) Hebrew literary cultures remembered David’s Jerusalem within their texts, and how the remains and ruins of this site influenced the memories of those later inhabitants who depicted David’s Jerusalem within the biblical narrative. By drawing on both archaeological data and biblical writings, Pioske calls attention to the breaks and ruptures between a remembered past and a historical one, and invites the reader to understand David’s Jerusalem as more than a physical location, but also as a place of memory.

The Day Christ Died
by Jim Bishop"This is a book about the most dramatic day in the history of the world, the day on which Jesus of Nazareth died. It opens at 6 P.M.—the beginning of the Hebrew day—with Jesus and ten of the apostles coming through the pass between the Mount of Olives and the Mount of Offense en route to Jerusalem and the Last Supper. It closes at 4 P.M. the following afternoon, when Jesus was taken down from the cross. . . . The fundamental research was done a long time ago by four fine journalists: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The rest has been added in bits and pieces from many men whose names span the centuries."—from the Foreword

A Day in the Life of a College Student Leader: Case Studies for Undergraduate Leaders
by Sarah M. Marshall Anne M. Hornak“Sarah Marshall and Anne Hornak have done a magnificent job exploring diverse contexts in which college students expand their individual leadership capacity and learn and practice engaging in relational leadership with others. These cases are realistic because they were gathered from their interviews with real students engaging in leadership. From whatever perspective, students can learn that they are doing leadership when they work with others to address shared issues, solve shared problems, and work toward positive change.”—from the Foreword by Susan R. KomivesThis book presents over 230 case studies that reflect typical issues faced by undergraduate student leaders. The scenarios cover the range of functional areas of student life.These cases are intended for use by faculty and student affairs professionals as training tools for new student leaders who generally receive little preparation before assuming their positions. Cases provide an opportunity for students to roleplay and discuss scenarios before they encounter potentially similar events in their daily lives as leaders; engage students intensely in their learning, as they work through the issues and problems; and promote meaningful dialogue and discussion of relevant theory.The cases are based on real life dilemmas, and reflect both contemporary and historical campus issues. They are derived from interviews with 110 undergraduates and 11 student affairs administrators from large public research institutions, small privates, community colleges, and mid-sized comprehensive schools.The book begins with guidance on how to use case studies effectively, and on how to incorporate theory in analyzing them. The cases are then grouped into chapters, each of which focuses on a particular type of student organization. The cases vary in length to allow for multiple uses. Shorter cases can be role played and discussed in leadership training workshops, while longer cases can be used as take home assignments or debated during longer training sessions. The book concludes with general advice for student leaders. To assist with the facilitation process, the authors provide discussion questions to begin the analysis of each case. The cases are written broadly enough to allow for a variety of possible solutions.

These cases provide opportunities to create meaningful learning experiences for courses, training programs, and the mentoring of new professionals, giving them exposure to the kinds of dilemmas they will encounter as they assume their leadership roles or start out on supervisory positions.The cases are derived from interviews with current student affairs professionals, are based on real life dilemmas, reflect contemporary issues on our college campuses, and are designed to be easily used or adapted across all institutional types.The cases cover the areas of advising and helping; assessment, evaluation and research; equity, diversity, and inclusion; ethical professional practice; history, values, and philosophy; human and organizational resources; law, policy, and governance; leadership; personal foundations; and student learning and development, and vary in length to allow for multiple uses. Shorter cases can be role-played and discussed in leadership training workshops, while longer cases can be used as take-home assignments or debated during longer training sessions. The book begins with advice on how to use the cases and concludes with general advice provided by current professionals in the field.
The Day of the Lord
by Paul J. WickliffeThe book, “The Day of the LORD” 1. An incomparable Bible prophecy masterpiece, “The Day of the LORD,” is the first of its kind in thirty years 2. The book, “The Day of the LORD,” eliminates all of the timing problems inherent in the other prophetic views currently in circulation: pre-tribulation; mid-tribulation; post-tribulation; neo post-tribulation; the pre-wrath rapture of the church; historicism and the heresy peddled by Hymenaeus and Philetus (II Tim. 2:17-19) better known as preterism 3. The author of the book, Paul Wickliffe, presents time as seen from eternity and God’s perspective—seamless and eternal, not sequential and temporal 4. Makes the distinction between national Israel and spiritual Israel (Rom. 2:28, 29 & Rom. 9:6, 7) 5. Reveals some of the imperceptible and incremental worldly influences, movements, and people labeled spiritual and ‘Christian,’ and the fruit these godless influences have had on society and biblical Christianity at large 6. Shows that Jesus’ Olivet Discourse (Matt. 24; Mark 13; Luke 21) has some profound elements ignored by most in the contemporary Bible prophecy camp: • That the tribulation and great tribulation are distinct periods of time. Jesus’ said otherwise in the phrase “those days.” Note, verses Matt. 24:19, 22, 29 • Contemporary prophecy says we are anticipating a period labeled the tribulation. Jesus said otherwise. We are in it! It began in the heart of national Israel when they rejected their Messiah. It was fulfilled in Jesus’ prophecy concerning Rome’s judgment in 70 A.D. on Jerusalem and giving us the Jewish Diaspora to the present • A failure to see prophecy from an eternal perspective and how ‘apparent’ sequential events are not actually sequential as told in the Olivet Discourse, some of the confusion by readers might begin to diminish. Once these chapters in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 are seen through an everlasting prism, the event described in Matthew 24:29-31, actually follows on the heels of the rapture in Matthew 24:37-41 • The term tribulation, a period of time we currently find ourselves, is not a future event. Being in it, this time period goes to the end of the 3.5 years, also known as the time of Jacob’s trouble 7. See why Daniel’s Seventieth Week has only three and a half years left not the seven years many Bible expositors claim (Dan. 9:27; Rev. 11:2, 3) 8. Understand the connection between Christ’s death on the cross and what that meant once Israel’s Passover Lamb had paid it all. See how all Jewish sacrifice and oblation were to become odious (offensive) to God, “and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate.” This meant animal atonement was empty, i.e. could not atone, or satisfy, God’s requirement in granting forgiveness 9. Examine a little-known truth regarding Simon Bar Kokhba (135 A.D.) and how he has been venerated and honored as Israel’s messiah 10. See the origin and explanation of the phrase “the day of the LORD,” and how that fits into God’s view of time, eternity, and prophecy 11. Has beautifully detailed graphs and charts not only showing the various prophetic views currently in circulation, but charts inclusive of other key eschatological events 12. See why Jesus’ words regarding his return in no way diminishes his deity. The key is in the word “knoweth” (Mark 13:32)
