August – September –New Releases From Vision Publishing
Second Edition just released of Scott Stripling’s book, The Trowel and the Truth.
A Guide to Field Archaeology in the Holy Land gives readers a masterful treatment of the how and why of biblical archaeology. This book is important and timely for at least two reasons. First, archaeological work in the Holy Land continues to make good progress, resulting in exciting discoveries and fresh insights. Dr. Stripling’s book informs readers of many of these recent and important discoveries. Secondly, archaeology greatly aids in the interpretation of Scripture. Few students, faculty, and pastors know the land of Israel and its rich treasures from the past as well as they should. Knowledge of the land and its archaeological insights will equip students, teachers, and pastors with important tools for better, sharper, more incisive interpretation of Scripture. Dr. Stripling’s book shows how this can be done. The Trowel and the Truth guides readers through every essential aspect of archaeology. This includes geography and chronology, which are vital for understanding the history of Israel, as well as the actual task of archaeological fieldwork and method. Knowing where and when major events took place provides the necessary context and makes it possible to interpret Scripture accurately. In a systematic way, Dr. Stripling’s book then works its way through all the major periods in biblical history, from the pre-patriarchal and patriarchal eras to …
Latest release: Brian R. Weeks’ newest book, Divine Encounters.
This book is a must-read for every Christian, especially those who have a call to leadership. I found the testimonies, insights, and lessons shared to be relevant, encouraging, and powerful. I can’t wait to purchase it and use it as a part of the leadership development training in my church.
I was glued to reading the book, as I related so much of what Pastor Brian wrote to my own life. Many of the circumstances God allows–those that play a key role as He fashions us into His vessel-can be challenging and at times confusing…BUT GOD uses everything for our good if we faint not and trust Him through it all.
It never ceases to amaze me how the Lord takes such care and time to fashion us and prepare us to carry His word and presence into the lives of others. I am grateful to the Lord for the gift Brian is to the world! I am one who has been personally impacted by the ministry of the prophetic anointing on his life, and my church has been ministered to with accurate, precise, powerful words from the Lord.
Thank you, Pastor Brian, for yielding to the Holy Spirit, staying on the potter’s wheel, walking through the valleys and allowing the fire to refine you. I am blessed because of your life and obedience to the call of God. Thank you for writing this book so others, just like me, will be encouraged and strengthened along their journey!”
