Bøker av Will Thomas

Life is a tapestry. The finished side reveals a beautifully designed masterpiece, and the underside is a jumble of knots, loose threads, and chaotic colors. We live on the underside! From the underside, life can seem meaningless, even hopeless! But what if we caught a glimpse of the other side? What if the Maker allowed us to see the masterpiece that he has in mind? Through the lens of Paul's letter to the Ephesians, The Masterpiece explores the tapestry of life that God plans for those who are "in Christ." Dr. Will Thomas calls Ephesians one of the rare jewels of the Bible. He insists that this ancient letter contains a treasure trove of priceless riches ready and waiting to be discovered. In The Masterpiece, Thomas explores three golden threads that are woven into each chapter of Ephesians. When these three come together-grace, servant hood, and the sovereignty of God-the result is a masterpiece. That's the life God has planned for you!

Book Description: The Bible is an amazing book by any standard. It's a big book that many of us will ever think about reading. This one volume contains sixty-six different books penned by at least forty authors over a span of nearly 1500 years. Despite its intimidating size, the Bible remains the best-selling book in the world. But the Bible has a problem-there are far more Bible owners than Bible readers! Lots of Bibles are purchased, far fewer are read, and far fewer than that are understood! For too many, the Bible is a confusing book. It is confusing to both strangers and veterans. In Navigating the Bible: Reading Without Getting Lost, Dr. Will Thomas provides a roadmap to the Bible that promises to help the experienced Bible reader and the newcomer read without getting lost. He begins with the basics before moving to an overview of the library of books that form the New and Old Testaments_. Navigating the Bible_ explains that the Bible tells one story from beginning to end--the Story of God. Dr. Thomas explores the Big Story that fills the Old Testament, then moves to the Story of Jesus before ending with the Coronation, bringing the Bible to a climactic conclusion. Dr. Thomas promises that with this roadmap in hand, Bible reading can become less confusing and more what the Lord intends it to be-informational, inspirational, and transformation. Enjoy the journey!

Private Enquiry agent Cyrus Barker, along with his partner Thomas Llewelyn, has a long, accomplished history - he's taken on cases for Scotland Yard, the Foreign Office, and even the crown itself, fulfilling them all with great skill and discretion. None of those cases, however, are as delicate and complicated as the one laid before him by a delegation of men who, thirty years before, fought for the Confederacy during the American Civil War. These men want to revive the Confederacy with a warship promised to the Rebels from the British Government in 1865. To get it now, they're threatening to reveal the long-secret treaty with the Confederacy. Barker is hired to use his connections to discreetly bring their threats to the Prime Minister.With a web of prominent, if secret, supporters throughout England ready to through their support to their efforts to wage war anew on the United States, the delegates are just waiting for the warship to begin their plans. But some of the men are not who they claim to be, and the American government has their own team watching, and waiting, for the right moment to take action.As this fuse on this powder keg of a situation grows ever shorter, it's up to Barker & Llewelyn to uncover the real identities and plans of these dangerous men.

A bombing injures private enquiry agent Cyrus Barker, leaving it up to his soon-to-be-married junior partner-Thomas Llewelyn-to find the person trying to murder them both before it's too late. In 19th century London, Cyrus Barker and his associate Thomas Llewelyn are renowned private enquiry agents, successfully employed by the highest levels of Her Majesty's government as well as private citizens. Their success, however, has led to their acquiring a powerful group of enemies, many of whom are determined to have their revenge. At least one of those enemies is responsible for a bombing of their offices that puts Cyrus Barker into the hospital and endangers Thomas Llewelyn's rapidly forthcoming nuptials. To add to the confusion, Barker's long-lost brother Caleb turns up on the rubble of their doorstep not long after the not-quite-fatal bombing. Unsure of Caleb and warned about him by Barker, Thomas reluctantly accepts Caleb's help both with a new case that comes in as well as trying to pinpoint which of Barker's enemies is making a move against them. As Thomas works his way through their enemy list, someone else is winnowing down that list: one by one those enemies are dying. With time running out-and his bride-to-be reconsidering their marriage-Llewelyn must (with the sick-bed bound Barker's help) uncover the killer and the plot before it's too late.
