In November 1877, three months after Emperor Meiji's conscript army of commoners defeated forces led by Japan's famous "last samurai," the Reverend Tom Alexander and his new wife, Emma, arrived in Japan, a country where Christianity had been punishable by death until 1868. A Christian in the Land of the Gods offers an intimate view of hardships and challenges faced by nineteenth-century missionaries working to plant their faith in a country just emerging from two and a half centuries of self-imposed seclusion. The narrative takes place against the backdrop of wrenching change in Japan and Great Power jockeying for territory and influence in Asia, as seen through the eyes of a Presbyterian missionary from East Tennessee. This true story of personal sacrifice, devotion to duty, and unwavering faith sheds new light on Protestant missionaries' work with Japan's leading democracy activists and the missionaries' role in helping transform Japan from a nation ruled by shoguns, hereditary lords, and samurai to a leading industrial powerhouse. It addresses universal themes of love, loss, and the enduring power of faith. The narrative also proves that one seemingly ordinary person can change lives more than he or she ever realizes.

A monumental history of Asia Minor from the Stone Age to the Roman Empire In this critically acclaimed book, Christian Marek masterfully provides the first comprehensive history of Asia Minor from prehistory to the Roman imperial period. Blending rich narrative with in-depth analyses, In the Land of a Thousand Gods shows Asia Minor’s shifting orientation between East and West and its role as both a melting pot of nations and a bridge for cultural transmission. Marek employs ancient sources to illuminate civic institutions, urban and rural society, agriculture, trade and money, the influential Greek writers of the Second Sophistic, the notoriously bloody exhibitions of the gladiatorial arena, and more. He draws on the latest research—in fields ranging from demography and economics to architecture and religion—to describe how Asia Minor became a center of culture and wealth in the Roman Empire. A breathtaking work of scholarship, In the Land of a Thousand Gods will become the standard reference book on the subject in English.

The purpose of the wilderness is about what God wants to do in our life. Ever since the fall recorded in Genesis, man has lost their identity, power and authority given to them by God. Without this power and authority, man will never be able to take dominion in this world. When our identity, power and authority have been restored, then He wants to prepare us for the work ahead. The reason why God brings us into the wilderness is to prepare each believer to be able to release their potential. Before we are able to be used by God mightily, He wants to change our character and filter out all the unnecessary things that we have learned in this world. It is a time where man has to learn how to be dependent upon God. This dependence starts in the wilderness where there is absolutely nothing. God wants all of us to put our total trust upon Him and that He will provide all the necessities that we need. God wants His people to experience the supernatural provision that He offers. This is especially true for people who desire to be future leaders in the Kingdom. This does not only refer to people in leadership but also people who live their life in the marketplace. People need to know and understand how God provides in their life and how He wants to use them in their field. In order for people to understand how God works, they need to be transformed through a season of testing. This season of testing is where God actually wants to build up our character. Our character needs to be changed to that of God. Without a character transformation, we will always reflect what we learn in the world. We need to get rid of everything that was attached to our life that doesnt reflect the characteristics of God. This is done in the wilderness because in the wilderness, since there is nothing, we cant help but rely on God. As we rely on God more, then the things that have been attached to our life will start to fall off. Everything that was attached has to come off. When everything comes off, then God will put His Words and traits upon our life. That is why character is so important. It reflects Gods traits. People never look at character as an important aspect in life. Character is often ignored or overlooked. However, to God, it is an important quality. When we are ultimately changed by God, then as we come out of our wilderness experience, we will come out with supernatural power to establish His Kingdom here on earth. Since we learn of His supernatural provision, we will also learn of His supernatural power.The whole process of the wilderness experience is receiving the anointing of God upon our life. With the anointing of God, we will be able to accomplish much. When the world says it takes talents and skill to accomplish much, to God it is all about the anointing. Our wilderness experience will release the anointing that is upon our life. The anointing is very crucial in a believers life. Just as Jesus was anointed to fulfill His purpose while on earth, we need to be anointed to fulfill the purpose of God in our life. This cant happen unless we are totally changed and dependent upon God. Everyone needs to go through their wilderness experience to receive the anointing of God.

Israel is the most misunderstood nation on the planet. The Jewish people are the most consistently persecuted in all of history - ancient and modern - why? Can the Church afford to pursue its historically notorious treatment of the Jew and the nation of Israel? This book offers clarity where confusion abounds. The author compels us to examine Church history and Jewish history in the light of God's word. Jesus is Jewish and so are the roots of the Christian faith - why is that significant? No nation, ever, has been regathered from worldwide dispersion to its ancient homeland, and speaking its ancient language - except Israel. And that, only, after man's most hideous crime, to attempt to exterminate them - why? Is this an issue that Christians can ignore? This book offers answers to these and many more questions. A powerful postscript alerts the reader to the real objectives of the 2006 war between Israel and Lebanon: a conspiracy seeking the total destruction of Israel with global ramifications.

The Kingdom Mentality is a book that God put in my heart a long time ago. I knew it was the perfect will of God for me to write this book, but I was waiting for Gods perfect timing so that it could be released in the right season. In the times that we are living in, many people are not resting in Gods peace because they do not spend enough time in Gods presence. Financial pressure is one of the biggest things that keep us too busy to make time for God. Satan uses many weapons to attack the mind of an individual in times of crisis, such as stress, anxiety, depression, discouragement about your calling, and probably the worst one is unbelief in the promises of God. If this is your case, then consider this book as a divine appointment of God for your life that will renew your mind, bring about the healing of your faith, and help you to believe that God has more for you because he is a god of second chances. The Bible says that all things work together for good for those who love God and are called according to his purpose. God loves you so much that he wants to take all your failures and disappointments and use them to bless others so what the enemy has meant for evil, God is able to turn it around and use it for good. The fact that this book is in your hands means that Godthe god of all provision, the god that has closed so many doors to bring you to the right dooris preparing you to enter into one of the best seasons of your life and that season will begin with one simple thing; that you believe that you qualify to have more because if you do not believe it, then your faith may have been burned down. Probably you have experienced a perceived failure, and you may need to hear the prophetic words that are contained in this book to bring the necessary healing of your faith. Maybe you have forgotten that no matter how bad your present situation looks, God is still in control of everything in your life. Maybe the godly kingdom mentality that you used to have is long gone because you have prayed, fasted, and chased the Lord and nothing changed, or maybe you feel like you cannot continue to live the Christian life anymore, but I have good news for you! God has been working behind the scenes to prepare you to begin a better life, and the only one thing you need to understand is that God works from the inside out, not from the outside in. The apostle Paul said in the book of Romans chapter 12, Lets be transformed by the renewing of our minds. As a teacher that moves in the prophetic word of knowledge, I am here to tell you that the worst is over for your life and the best is yet to come! I pray that you meditate on the words of this book in the unity of the Holy Spirit of God so the godly mentality that was stolen in the garden from Adam and Eve will be restored when you see the power of his resurrection through the cross by Jesus Christ. I pray that this book will help you to receive the necessary healing of your faith so you will be able to press on toward your destiny even through times of difficulty. I pray that your kingdom mentality will be renewed the way God did it from your mothers womb. Cordially, Pastor Oscar Pelaez
