The year is 2024. Frank Venture is a visionary astronomer working in a secretive interdisciplinary research complex in northern Arizona. During his remarkable career he has established world-wide fame for his revolutionary theories about light as well as his colorful and uncompromising religious skepticism.Riding the crest of his accomplishments and reputation, Venture designs a project designed to re-map the universe using new technology. Instead, he stumbles upon a bizarre phenomenon that could unravel everything he believes about the natural and supernatural world. For what Venture discovers is light bent in space and returning to Earth two thousand years later. In fact, his project is observing the last days of Jesus Christ.As Venture and his telescopes track and analyze the enigmatic signal, they are hindered by a plasma cloud that intermittently blocks their vision and threatens to thwart Venture in what he believes will be his finest hour-providing clear evidence that Jesus never rose from the dead and that the basis for Christianity is false. Standing on the verge of a revelation that one way or another will culminate in a shattering disclosure to humanity, Venture calls on his estranged friend, pastor Paul Gladstone, and his wife Clara. Gladstone does not know how to respond to Venture''s discovery and finds his own faith tested. He hopes the signal from the stars will draw his friend to God.

God once asked King Solomon, "What shall I give thee?" Solomon could have asked for anything-riches, long life, endless joy-but instead, he simply asked for discernment between good and evil. Impressed by Solomon''s foresight, God additionally granted him a wise and understanding heart, which is why the name Solomon is now synonymous with wisdom. "Solomon''s Treasure: Uncover the Ancient Paths," makes use of the Book of Proverbs, God''s gift to a wise king. It is a practical guide bringing ancient wisdom into modern times, fully applicable in your day-to-day life. It covers ninety-seven key topics from Proverbs, including anger, compassion, revenge, and forgiveness. The source material is three thousand years old, but the advice found in it is timeless and relevant even today. As Christians, it is easy to get distracted and wander from the path. Even so, a life lived well begins with a single step; often that step is simple awareness. Are you ready to take that first step? "Solomon''s Treasure" offers an opportunity to see clearly the rights and wrongs of a Christian life in an informative, easy-to-understand guidebook leading to a path of wisdom and fulfillment.

"The most sweeping and comprehensive book on eschatology that I've ever encountered. The scope of this book is simply breathtaking." -Dr. Sam StormsFor the last 150 years the evangelical world has been embroiled in a Great Debate about eschatology, about the true biblical picture of God's ultimate purpose for the universe, life, and man.Much of the debate swirls around the Kingdom of God: What is its true nature? In how many stages does it enter history? How shall we interpret the Old Testament prophecies of the Kingdom-literally (in terms of Israel) or figuratively (in terms of the Church)?There is also controversy about the Consummation: Will our world get better and better, or worse and worse? Will Christ return once, twice, or even three times? When He does return, will it be before the millennium or after? How many resurrections should we expect? How many judgments? What will the universe be like when God finally creates the new heavens and the new earth?This book was written in the conviction that the High King of heaven has given his people certain master keys by which they may know the answers to these questions, and so be fully prepared for the awesome consummation of all things. In it, pastor and author Dean Davis seeks to place those keys in our hands, so that we may behold afresh the simplicity and glory of our Blessed Hope, and thereby resolve, once and for all, the Great End Time Debate.
