Christians are called to bear a cross. These crosses sometimes involve the general burdens that affect everyone. At other times, Christians bear specific burdens. The Lord promises us that our crosses and burdens can be transformed into small splinters if we focus on what really matters. How can this happen? You will find the answer in Splinters of the Cross...the same answer that was found by Abraham, Moses, Daniel, Peter, Paul, and many more: God's grace is sufficient for you.

The Christian life can have as many heartbreaks as hallelujahs. Circumstances confuse us. Sin frustrates us. Satan likes to inflict pain on God's children. Wouldn't it be great if we could go to heaven as soon as we become Christians and skip the confusion, frustration, and pain? Sadly it doesn't work like that; we have to learn to overcome this world while awaiting the Second Coming of Jesus. In 1-2 Thessalonians, we are equipped to do just that.

The book of Obadiah may be among the most neglected in the Old Testament. It is a message of divine judgment against Israel's cousins, the Edomites. Descended from Esau, Jacob's brother, the Edomites taunted Israel and celebrated her destruction at the hands of the Babylonians in 586 B.C. In response to such arrogance and hatred, a little - known Judaean prophet named Obadiah predicted Esau's doom and Israel's restoration.

In Fit for the Pulpit, a host of preachers dispense comfort and counsel to their brothers in the trenches, men who often work in ministerial isolation as they seek to build up the body of Christ.

In eleven chapters, McCurley and his colleagues manage to cover many of the areas wherein preachers need continual encouragement.
