A compelling re-examination of the missionary/counter-missionary drama. Appalled by the nefarious tactics of Christian missionaries disguised as Jews, Rabbanit Simani pens a personal letter to those misled by their wiles. In the process, she takes the offensive and meets the "Jews for Jesus" organization head-on. "A Reaction to Messianic Missionaries" peers deep into the characters and sources for both Jewish and Christian Messianic claims.In Part I, "Wolves in sheep's clothing", Rabbanit Simani introduces the reader to recent events that prompted writing "A Reaction to Messianic Missionaries" and an explanation of the development of the "Messianic Jewish" movement. She proceeds to examine their so-called "Isaiah 53 Campaign" - a well-funded, aggressive effort targeting Jews with misinformation with the expressed goal of converting as many as possible to their disguised form of Christianity. To this, the rabbanit gives clear, rational, evidence-based counter-arguments.Part II, "How we got where we are", outlines the diverging and conflicting historical paths of the intriguing development of Judaism and Christianity. Rabbanit Simani weaves a fascinating tapestry with hues from the faith of Abraham to the Yeshivoth of Hillel and Shammai and from the dark, primal mysteries to the conquests of Alexander the Great.It is in Part III, "Why Jews reject Christianity", that the rabbanit ties all strands together with her unique perspectives on why the Messianic missionaries are wrong to target Jews. Not since the Passover Plot has the public been offered such a dynamic perspective of the origins of Early Christianity. A must-read for anyone seriously interested in who was or will be the Messiah.

Unpacking Palamism: A Catholic Critique, penned by esteemed scholar Dr. James Likoudis, meticulously scrutinizes the doctrines of Palamism, a theological construct found in Eastern Orthodoxy, but seemingly less than essential to it. This Palamite system, controversially claimed to be foundational to Eastern Orthodoxy, primarily involves the essence-energies distinction made famous by Hesychast monk Gregory Palamas. Dr. Likoudis examines the tenets of this system, discussing their place in Eastern Orthodox theology and ecumenism. He assesses the scriptural and traditional foundations of Palamism, as well as provides a Catholic lens through which to understand it, in the hopes of resolving longstanding difficulties in the way of full unity between the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches. Testimonials "This work represents the capstone of Dr. Likoudis's life-long effort toward reconciling his Eastern Orthodox brethren with the Catholic Church. His concise and informative treatment of Gregory Palamas, the famous and controversial 14th century monk of Mount Athos and Archbishop of Thessalonica, is both highly appreciative and gently critical. On the one hand, Likoudis praises Palamas's ascetical-mystical spirituality and theology of theosis, calling his rich Mariology "sublime" and suggesting that Catholics have much to learn from him. On the other hand, he devotes two chapters to Palamas's controversial notion of God's "uncreated energies," which, though distinct from God's transcendent essence, allegedly do not compromise divine simplicity and yet can be experienced by men as the 'Light of Mount Tabor.' Highly recommended." - Dr. Philip Blosser, Professor of Philosophy, >"The Churches of the Christian East and West have wrestled for many centuries with the question of the relationship between the uncreated and created realms. In this work, James Likoudis presents a worthy synthesis of his own thinking along with several others on the matter, with varying degrees of sympathy and antipathy towards the Palamite distinction and its possible effect on the prospects of Orthodox-Catholic unity." - Fr. Daniel Dozier, Executive Director, God With Us Eastern Catholic Formation "Likoudis's concise retelling of the Palamite controversy and problematic readings of Palamism, both among Catholic and Orthodox scholars, as well as his concise summary of Palamas's Mariology, provide an accurate representation of academic positions thereon by the pars maior of Catholic theologians and can be used with great profit for becoming acquainted with the historically controversial assertions of Palamas and Palamists in both Late Byzantium and by Modern systematic theologians." - Rev. Christiaan Kappes, PhD, SLD, Academic Dean, Byzantine Catholic Seminary of Ss. Cyril and Methodius;Co-author, "Palamas Among the Scholastics,"in Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies "James Likoudis's Unpacking Palamism: A Catholic Critique is a most welcome and timely publication. While debate will continue over the compatibility of Palamas's theology and metaphysics with Catholicism, there can be no disputing Likoudis's pivotal role in bringing Palamas into the theological awareness of many Western Christians. It is Likoudis's clear presentation of Palamas's beautiful teaching on the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of all Christians, that sets this book apart. Mary is the key to resolving remaining theological differences between Catholic and Orthodox, and Likoudis provides his readers with a guide to knowing Mary according to the mind of this 'Pillar of Orthodoxy.'" - Dr. Jared Goff, Adjunct Professor of Dogmatic Theology, Byzantine Catholic Seminary of Ss. Cyril and Methodius;Co-author, "Palamas Among the Scholastics,"in Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Stu

Does our worship mean anything? What is the ultimate purpose of our songs?The songs we sing in church or listen to were never meant to be a substitute for our worship; they were meant to enhance it. It's time to regain our voices; it's time to push through the outer court and reclaim the high places-the altars-where true worship happens.Jesus longs to fulfill the lyrics of the songs we sing.

When I write a children's book, I always think about ways to teach children about Jesus. I know children love to color. Therefore, I decided to create a coloring book and make it all about the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus. His life is interesting, and I want children to know what He did because of His love for everyone. I pray for this book to be a tool for many children to ask about Jesus, leading them to accept Jesus as their Savior while young. There is a prayer in the back of the book where they can accept Jesus as their Savior. May God be glorified in all things.
