Girls with Swords: How to Carry Your Cross Like a Hero
by Lisa Bevere John BevereWhat if you discovered you have been entrusted with an invisible, invincible, and incorruptible weapon? Would you use it? Move beyond only study and begin to wield the Word of God! Read this book with fair warning: you are about to engage in a powerfully courageous life! --Christine Caine, author of Undaunted and cofounder of The A21 Campaign Girls with Swords is prophetic, biblical, instructive, insightful, and challenging! This is no sweet, girly pep talk. This is powerful stuff for both women and men. We're excited about this book and the potential impact for the church around the globe. --Judah and Chelsea Smith, pastors, The City Church, Kirkland, WA Lisa Bevere is one of God's most powerful voices for this time in our history. --Sheila Walsh, core speaker for Women of Faith As you read Girls with Swords, you'll be empowered to face your challenges with boldness and learn to live like a hero. --Robert and Debbie Morris, pastors, Gateway Church, Dallas-Ft. Worth "If you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one!" --Jesus If there ever was a time for women to be armed, it's now. Yet the Word of God is a sword we often are more comfortable studying than wielding. It's time we give girls swords and watch them connect heaven to earth. Worldwide, women are the targets of prejudice, sex trafficking, abuse, and even gendercide. Lisa Bevere writes that these attacks say more about who women might be in the future than who they have been in the past. In Girls with Swords she explains a spiritual enemy is seeking to disarm women on every level. It's time women become the heroes God created them to be and stand--courageous, discerning, forgiving, and wise. Creatively forging the imagery of swords, the Word of God, and the Cross, Girls with Swords will teach you: * How to speak the language of heaven on earth * What it means to intercede * What it means to carry your cross * What it means to be discerning * How to disarm the enemy * Why women are the enemy's target--and why God needs them to be heroes It's time to take up your sword and be a hero.

Gita Press Aur Hindu Bharat Ka Nirman: गीता प्रेस और हिन्दू भारत का निर्माण
by Akshaya Mukulसाल 1920 के आरंभिक दशकों में ही व्यवसायी से आध्यात्मिक गुरु बने जयदयाल गोयन्दका और हनुमानप्रसाद पोद्दार नामक मारवाड़ियों ने गीता प्रेस की स्थापना और कल्याण पत्रिका के प्रकाशन की शुरुआत की। साल 2014 के आरंभ तक गीता प्रेस, गीता की तक़रीबन 7.2 करोड़, तुलसीदास की कृतियों की 7 करोड़ और पुराण तथा उपनिषद जैसे धर्मशास्त्रों की 1.9 करोड़ प्रतियां बेच चुका था। यहाँ तक कि अब जबकि उस जमाने की बाकी सभी धार्मिक, साहित्यिक या राजनैतिक पत्रिकाएं प्रेस अभिलेखागार की धूल खा रही हैं, गीता प्रेस से निकलने वाली पत्रिका कल्याण 2,00000 सर्कुलेशन के साथ बाज़ार में है। वहीं इसके अंग्रेजी समकक्ष कल्याण–कल्पतरु का सर्कुलेशन भी 1,00000 से अधिक है। गीता प्रेस ने कट्टर हिंदू राष्ट्रवाद की आवाज़ को बुलंद करने के लिए एक साम्राज्य स्थापित किया और एक लाभ-आधारित तथा निर्धारणीय धर्मनिष्ठा की कल्पना की। महात्मा गांधी समेत लगभग सभी प्रमुख आवाजों और नेताओं को गो हत्या, राष्ट्रभाषा के तौर पर हिंदी का समर्थन और हिंदुस्तानी का बहिष्कार, हिंदू कोड बिल, पाकिस्तान गठन, भारत के पंथनिरपेक्ष संविधान जैसे मुद्दों पर बोलने-लिखने को बाध्य कर दिया। कल्याण और कल्याण–कल्पतरुइस तरह के सभी मामलों पर हिंदू पक्ष का प्रवक्ता था। गीता प्रेस और इसके प्रकाशन द्वारा तैयार किये जा रहे विचारों ने हिंदू राजनैतिक चेतना और वास्तव में हिंदी जन दायरे को गढ़ने में अहम भूमिका निभाई। यह इतिहास हमें हिंदू दक्षिणपंथ की राजनैतिक सर्वश्रेष्ठता के उभार जैसे विवादित और जटिल विषय पर नई दृष्टि प्रदान करता है।आधुनिक भारत के इतिहास में सबसे प्रभावी प्रकाशन उद्यमों में से एक रहे गीता प्रेस पर किया गया यह शोध गीता प्रेस एंड द मेकिंग ऑफ़ हिंदू इंडिया एक मौलिक, पठनीय, और गहराई से किया गया अध्ययन है। विवेकहीन उद्यमियों, शातिर संपादकों, राष्ट्रवादी विचारकों और धार्मिक कट्टरपंथियों के रूप में असाधारण ढंग से चरित्रों का निरूपण करने वाला यह अध्ययन हमारे समय का अत्यावश्यक अध्ययन है।
Gita Wisdom
by Joshua GreeneThe Bhagavad Gita is one of the most revered texts of all time, but it's often impenetrable to the 21st-century seeker. In Gita Wisdom, Joshua Greene retells this timeless text in a completely new way, revealing that it is, in essence, a heart-to-heart talk between two friends about the meaning of life. As Krishna and his friend Arjuna reminisce on a battlefield known as Kurukshetra, readers learn that the two played together as children, were close as young men, and became family when Arjuna married Krishna's sister. In later life the men shared extraordinary adventures, including a journey to places outside the known universe. Like all great literature, the Gita explores the human condition: who we are, where we came from, and why we're here. With a helpful glossary that lists names, terms, and places, this accessible, enlightening retelling is the perfect introduction to the Gita's venerable wisdom.

Gitel's Freedom: A Novel
by Iris Mitlin LavFor fans of Georgia Hunter&’s We Were the Lucky Ones and Anita Abriel&’s The Light After the War comes a historical narrative about the lives of Jewish immigrants in the early twentieth century and one woman&’s journey through adversity toward personal freedom.At an early age, Gitel questions the expected roles of women in society and in Judaism. Born in Belorussia and brought to the US in 1911 as a child, she leads a life constrained by her religious Jewish parents. Forbidden from going to college and pushed into finding a husband, she marries Shmuel, an Orthodox Jewish pharmacist whose left-wing politics she admires. They plan to work together in a neighborhood pharmacy in Chicago—but when the Great Depression hits and their bank closes, their hopes are shattered. In the years that follow, Shmuel&’s questionable decisions, his poor health, and his bad luck plague their marriage and leave them constantly in financial distress. Gitel dreams of going back to school to become a teacher once their one daughter reaches high school, but an unexpected pregnancy quashes that aspiration as well. And when, later, a massive stroke leaves Shmuel disabled, Gitel is challenged to combine caring for him, being the breadwinner at a time when women face salary discrimination, and being present for their second daughter. Offering an illuminating look at Jewish immigrant life in early-1900s America, Gitel&’s Freedom is a compelling tale of women&’s resourcefulness and resilience in the face of limiting and often oppressive expectations.

Give Them Jesus: Raising Our Children on the Core Truths of the Christian Faith
by Dillon T. ThorntonA fresh, clear, joyful guide for parents on how to teach their children to love God with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength.GIVE THEM JESUS aims to help parents not simply add to their children's stockpile of knowledge, but to cultivate children-disciples who are able to display Christ-likeness in every situation. Parents are the ones primarily responsible for opening up the Scriptures to help their children understand God, the world, and themselves. The family is the divinely appointed discipleship program; the home is first and foremost a place of worship. The introduction of the book discusses the four vital components of family worship: teach, treasure, sing, and pray, and offers practical suggestions for beginning and prioritizing family worship in the rough and tumble of life. Subsequent chapters guide parents to a deeper understanding of the core truths of the historic Christian faith, as summarized in the Apostles' Creed, arming them with appropriate language, helpful illustrations, and relevant object lessons, so that in the end they will be better prepared to pass these truths on to their children. Each chapter concludes with a family worship guide, which includes: 1) family memory verses, 2) nuggets of truth from the chapter, 3) questions for family discussion, 4) songs that celebrate the truths of the Creed, and 5) prayer prompts. GIVE THEM JESUS equips parents to prepare their children to leave home and go out into the world as faithful participants in the great gospel story. "Never stop telling the gospel story to your kids," Thornton says. "Give your children Jesus. Again. And again. And again. And you'll see them walk in the truth."

He invites all to seek God's help to focus on eliminating one habit or attitude that is destructive.

Study includes seven sessions, one for each Sunday in Lent and Easter Sunday. Each session features a Scripture reference, a personal reading, questions for personal reflection or group study, and closing prayer.

From Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, Zimak guides you to ponder a scripture passage and to apply it to your own life by following four simple steps: read, reflect, respond, pray.
