Book Description
A biographical encyclopedia of American and British Christian-themed writers from World War II to the present, covering acclaimed literary works and popular evangelical fiction. Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Fiction: From C.S. Lewis to Left Behind spans the entire breadth of Christian-themed British and American writing from World War II to the present—well-known and less familiar authors, acclaimed literary novels, and popular writing in a variety of genres (mysteries, thrillers, romances), works that explore matters of faith, works that challenge orthodoxy and church practices, and works wholly written by and for devout evangelicals. Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Fiction offers 90 alphabetically organized entries covering the field's most important writers. Each entry includes a brief biography, religious and educational background, a survey of major works and themes, and a summary of critical response, as well as a bibliography of major works and criticism. By examining evocative, sometimes overlooked Christian elements in modern fiction, and by exploring the depth and scope of popular evangelical fiction, Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Fiction offers the richest, most complete portrait of the role of faith in modern English writing ever published.

Daily Hope for Today's Christian Woman Devotional

Pages : 70
Book Description
The King had spoken, "Kill all the Hebrew baby boys." Pharaoh was clear in his instructions to all the midwives in Egypt, and no one would dare to go against him. When Puah and Shiphrah received the orders, they were afraid for themselves and their clients. They had a decision to make--follow Pharaoh's orders or follow their God-given conscience. As licensed professional midwives, they refused to go with the government's directives. These brave women took their stand against an unrighteous decree and prevailed because they chose the fear of God over the fear of man. As a twenty-first century woman, I wondered if my experiences today are similar to what Puah and Shiphrah encountered in their time. Do I share any traits with other women in the Bible, like Jochebed, Bathsheba, Sarah, Mary, and Martha? Would any of them have advice for what we're going through right now? I want to share with you what these women have taught me as I met them through the pages of scripture. It is my deepest desire and prayer that as you use this devotional you will be encouraged, challenged, and inspired to overcome every obstacle and become the unique and victorious woman God called you to be.
