Who is King JoashKing Joash was the last from David's family. He was preserved by God and placed into the kingdom under the direction of Jehoida, the priest. All the days of Jehoida's life, Joash walked in the ways of God, but after the priest died, Joash turned away from God toward his friends godless direction. This raises questions about how our friends influence our walk with God.What Can we Learn From HimFrom Joash, we can learn many life lessons about friendships and fellowship and this third book of the Kings of All Creation series examines what we can learn through the Word.

How can I introduce my life without tipping my hand to enough detail that you will not need to the rest of this book? I am thinking this as I write the Introduction: Take Two. I wrote so much, and that which I wrote, I absolutely loved, but it was too much, it tipped my hand, it was a spoiler of the story to come. So I hit the delete key to write a simple message instead.Within the pages of this book I will tell you my story. It's a story of a latch-key kid born out of time; a boy who lived a latch-key life before that term was coined by social scientists concerned about all these kids coming home from school to an empty house. I am here to say that their fears are justified. Indeed, I agree that idle time is the Devil's plaything, and my life shows how unsupervised children can become rotten to the core. I reject that we are blank slates waiting for moral input. If I was unsure of that as a child, I am convinced of it now, as I look back!I do not mean to suggest that growing up with supervision will prevent us from being sinners, nor that every unsupervised child will grow up as I did, but rather, I want to show you the impact untempered sin has in a young boy's life. I want to show you that growing up without God leads to a life of sin. I want to show you that sin begets sin. I want you to learn that following God is truly the most important thing you can do!This is a story of redemption. I was seeped into sin as a teabag forgotten at the bottom of the nearly empty cup. If one were to swig that last bit down it would be a bitter gulp. And that was my life after years of practicing sin. But Jesus Christ found me in those early years of adulthood. He showed me that not even I was beyond His reach of redemption. He called me to cast out the sin so embedded in my soul and preach the God that I spent so much of my life openly rejecting. I want to tell my story about what rooted the sin so deep into my soul, and how God had the power to weed the garden of my heart. This is about our task and responsibility as Christians to pass along the true Gospel.I am writing this book now because Jesus Christ found me as a young adult scarcely over twenty, but now I am a bit beyond forty. That means as I write this book, I have lived exactly half of my life as a wretched sinner, and the other half as a redeemed saint (and I am not lost on the irony that statistically I could live to be eighty). Such a realization has given me insight into a life with and without God. Such insight is critical to understand who God is, who we are, and what a life following Jesus really means.I want to show through my testimony not only the saving power of Jesus, but I also want to impress on you the life contrasted between living in the world and living for Christ. I pray that the lessons and testimony in this book will help you to find Jesus Christ, or maybe more accurately, maybe it will help Jesus Christ to find you!

Who Is King HezekiahKing Hezekiah was considered the most righteous king during Israel's divided kingdom period. Both his father and son were also considered among the most wicked of kings, but sandwiched between them was Hezekiah, a man of prayer who would be tested by threat of destruction and the loss of life from illness. He humbly sought God in prayer and was delivered for his righteousness. In this book, we will learn about this king and more importantly, we will glean wisdom to help our own prayer life become strong. By the of this book, you will have an understanding of what God looks for in a person of prayer. We will examine some basic guidelines for effective prayer and learn to develop a habit of bringing our requests before the Lord.Kings of All CreationThis series was written to learn New Testament principles from Old Testament kings and prophets in a way that is easy to digest. The period of the kings contain rich lessons that are applicable for today. We will explain the lives of kings and prophets in a way anyone can understand. Join us as we look through the life of the kings to learn how to obey Christ in our lives today.More Information:In this book, we tackle the nuances of prayer as a primer starting with learning objectives to guide what we hope will be useful to organize our thoughts on the subject of prayer with the final goal of being more consistent and devoted in our prayer life.We will draw our examples primarily from the life of Hezekiah, but will also pull in other related scriptures. Our focus on Hezekiah starts with his father, Ahaz, before looking at the circumstances that made Hezekiah the most dedicated king in the days of the divided kingdom.Next, we look at the two major prayers in the king's life and how God answered those prayers, focusing our study on what we can learn from his prayers and how God answered them.We conclude the book with a chapter on bringing the ideas together and putting the steps into action by creating a model for our prayer life to hopefully build a habit of consistent and effective prayer.Table of Contents:IntroductionLearning ObjectivesHezekiah: A Time of FaithA Sanctified ReignThe First PrayerThe Second PrayerTo Hear a PrayerCreate Your personal PlanThe GospelScripture Index

Who is King JosiahKing Josiah inherited a kingdom in ruin and under the judgment of God. He heard a message of destruction from prophets and changed his ways, but quickly found out sincere faith is not enough!

When he humbled himself to God and His Word, he was spared the destruction that was comingWhat Can we Learn From HimFrom Josiah, we can learn may life lessons and this first book of the Kings of All Creation series examines what we can learn through the Word.

Is Christmas just a repackaged Pagan holiday? Should we worry about dressing in a costume in October as being akin to worshiping the Devil? Why do we give people pink candies in the middle of February every year?If you are like many modern Americans, the calendar rolls on and these days appear and disappear. The stores become colored with the seasonal hues as we are coerced through peer pressure to buy flowers for that special someone, keep candy on hand for the neighborhood children, and let's not forget to make room in the freezer for the bird we plan to roast just before darting out of the door way too early to find ourselves shopping, spending money we often do not have to buy more things we can barely fit into our houses. The heart of the holidays is missing.As we examine each holiday, we will explore the original meaning of each of our modern faith-based celebrations, comb through the myths and present the best research we have to date about the origin stories. We will explore not only those origins, but the ebb and flow of seasonal opinion over the years including how we have become numb to these special days. We conclude each chapter with a call to return to Godly worship.We will look first at what a holiday is in scope of Biblical analysis and then focus on the sin of covetousness as it relates to the American approach of holidays. Finally, we will tackle the holidays in the order they appear in the calendar year. We examine the origin of New Year's celebrations, Valentines and St Patrick's Days, Easter, Halloween (yes, it does have Christian roots), Thanksgiving, and finally Christmas.For those of you who want to know the dirty details about how God mandated many holidays, we have an appendix exploring the many required Jewish feasts.Chapters: What's In a Holy Day?
