3 SEPTEMBER 2016 RECEIVING THE 12 BLESSINGS OF ISRAEL How God's Promises to His People Apply to Your Life Today Paul Thangiah Unique, Fascinating Look at How God's Promises to Israel Apply to Today We read throughout the Bible about God blessing his people, but most of us don't realize that these blessings are still meant for today--and for us. SEPTEMBER US $14.99 CAN $ pages Growth RELIGION / Christianity / Pentecostal & Charismatic In this accessible study, pastor and international leader Paul Thangiah connects ancient biblical texts to modern-day life. Exploring Jacob's final blessings over his twelve sons in Genesis and Moses' parting blessings to the twelve tribes in Deuteronomy, Thangiah sheds light on the history of those on whom these blessings were bestowed. With keen insight, he examines the background of each of Jacob's sons, the significance of each name and personal situation, and what the Bible says about his descendants. Then, he shows how each of the twelve tribes saw the fulfillment of both Jacob's and Moses' prophetic blessings. Yet these blessings didn't cease at the end of the Old Testament, says Thangiah, revealing how they were powerfully and ultimately fulfilled in Jesus. You will be encouraged and inspired to discover how God's promises to his people extend beyond Israel to include all who've been grafted in through Christ--and how you can still enjoy these prophetic blessings today. Paul Thangiah is the founder and senior pastor of Full Gospel Assembly of God Church in Indiranagar, Bangalore, India. A graduate of Southern Asia Bible College in Bangalore, Thangiah started the church with only three people; today this growing church ministers to more than 25,000 every Sunday in 18 services translated into five languages. It also has numerous ministries that reach around the world. Paul and his wife, Sheba, have been married for thirty years; they have two children and one grandson. 103

4 SEPTEMBER 2016 COUNTERFEIT COMFORTS Exposing the Imposters That Keep You from True Peace, Purpose and Passion Robia Scott Expose the Imposters that Keep You from True Peace, Purpose, and Passion When the pressures of life become overwhelming, our first instinct is to seek out comfort. From turning to our go-to foods or shopping or exercise or favorite books or television shows--even alcohol, smoking, or cutting--we look to what is around us, seeking refuge and release from the stress. While not all these things are inherently bad, when we continually retreat first to the temporary relief these counterfeit comforts offer, they can--and will--become addictive and actually enslave us. SEPTEMBER US $13.99 CAN $ pages RELIGION / Christian Life / Women's Issues Growth With grace and warmth, author Robia Scott shows how true healing and lasting satisfaction can be found only as we learn to transfer our dependence from counterfeit comforts onto our one true Comforter: the Holy Spirit. From battling her own counterfeits, such as anorexia, body image, and success, Scott leads you step by step through the process of breaking the knee-jerk pattern of responding, reacting, and running to the counterfeits. Instead, she shows how you can simply come--without striving or trying harder--and enter his presence to experience the true comfort your soul is longing for. Robia Scott is a pastor and popular keynote speaker whose passion is to help other women find freedom. A professional dancer and actress by trade, Robia rocketed to international success at a young age, touring with Prince and guest starring in hit television shows like Beverly Hills 90210, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and CSI. After becoming a Christian, she left behind a thriving career in Hollywood to found Deeper Life Ministries and pastor a church with her husband, James, in Redondo Beach, California. 104

7 OCTOBER 2016 KEEPING THE FIRE Discovering the Heart of True Revival Rolland Baker Bestselling Author and Missionary Rolland Baker Reveals the Heart of True, Lasting Revival "There has been much talk in recent years of revival," says bestselling author and missionary Rolland Baker, "so much so that I wonder at times whether revival itself has become the object of devotion." Too often believers seek out revival, not the Reviver. When unchecked, they often pursue an emotional or physical experience or focus on how many came to Christ, rather than worship Jesus himself. Yet the heart of true, lasting revival is Christ--of falling in love with him so deeply that you can't help but tell others about him. And that, says Baker, is what has fueled him, his wife, Heidi, and all of Iris Ministries over the last thirty years. OCTOBER US $12.99 CAN $ pages Growth RELIGION / Christianity / Pentecostal & Charismatic Rights: Cannot export to the UK "This book is about sustaining revival over decades," says Baker. "By that I mean it is a book about falling in love and staying in love with the person of Jesus Christ. Revival is about the Reviver, nothing more and nothing less. My prayer is that you will fall in love with him with all your heart as you read these pages, and that you will not be able to resist giving that love away, wherever you place your feet." Rolland Baker and his wife, Heidi, are the founders of Iris Ministries. They served as missionaries in Indonesia and Hong Kong before following God's call in 1995 to Mozambique in southeast Africa. In the face of overwhelming need, the Bakers now watch God provide miraculously for well over 10,000 children every day through their ministry, and many more through the Iris network of more than 15,000 churches, Bible schools, primary schools, and remote outreach programs. They live in Mozambique, Africa. 107
