"Christian Fundamentalism in America: The Story of the Rest from 1857 to 2020" is a fascinating account of the Christian Fundamentalist movement in America. The first section unfolds the story of great men and women who were song writers, Christian businessmen, great scholars, and much more, who experienced great Prayer Meeting Revivals, Prophetic Bible Conferences, the first Scofield Reference Bible, the famous 12-volume set, known as The Fundamentals, and finally the World's Christian Fundamentals Association of 1919. The Grace Brethren story transitions into the turbulent twenties between Fundamentalism and Modernists. For another section, beginning in the 1920s, the author dug far beyond the surface to bring to us the "story of the rest" within the Presbyterian and Baptist denominations struggling between truth and error. The reader will learn what really happened secretly when Des Moines University was shut down by riotous students and everything got out of hand. The reader follows down pathways of well-researched aspects of the fascinating Dr. J. Frank Norris and life trials. In the detailed story of Billy Graham, John R. Rice, Bob Jones Sr., and Bob Jones Jr. the reader will discover how the lines of separation were drawn. Most importantly, however, the author knows without doubt that a true Fundamentalist: (1) believes and defends the whole Bible as the absolute, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God; (2) seeks fully to obey His Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and (3) desires to reach out in sacrificial love and compassion to all people. By far, most in this "story of the rest" are godly believers who will bring joy for each of us. David Beale taught courses on Fundamentalism and Evangelicalism for some thirty years at Bob Jones University and Seminary. In 1986, he wrote a book (now out of print) titled In Pursuit of Purity. Our new book, Christian Fundamentalism in America, replaces the old, out-of-date one. He has written several other books, including Historical Theology In-depth (2 vols.); Baptist History in England and America; A Pictorial History of Our English Bible; and The Mayflower Pilgrims. For teaching History of Fundamentalism, Beale created an enormous set of lectures with photos on PowerPoint. David and his wife Mary enjoy their local church. Since Dr. Beale retired from the classroom in 2010, he has taught and preached in schools and churches. He can be contacted at 2 Plum Orchard Ct. Simpsonville, SC 29681 davidbeale@charter.net

Tending people is a learning process and no one ever learns it all. It is a test of personal integrity and not everyone earns a passing grade. Whether dealing with a self-deluded executive or a power-hungry administrative assistant who terrorized an entire department, Marsha gives the reader a view of what it is really like to work in human resources. With candor and common sense, she shares her experiences involving both the hilarious and the occasionally heartbreaking work of tending people in an organizational setting. It was complicated work, by turns fascinating and infuriating, but never boring. Eventually, as a VP of HR Marsha managed an entire workforce (with a lot of help), but she began in employee relations and often tended people one-on-one. Whether the challenge was holding someone accountable (from entry level to the C-suite) or making sure the right people were rewarded for doing the right thing, she approached the job with hope and humor. Marsha worked in organizations of varying sizes for more than twenty-five years, including stints in a private medical practice, a healthcare Fortune 500 Company, and a tech company listed on the NASDAQ. She holds an MS in Human Resources and held a Senior Professional in Human Resources certification at retirement. Marsha is a seasoned speaker at both business and civic functions. She shares stories and insights into the workplace with both humor and discretion. She and her husband (and their dog, Dusty) currently live in Northern California.

Unfortunately, the rough edges of real life snatch away his loving wife Dianah and nine-year old daughter Lily in a tragic mountain fire near Durango, Colorado, and send Gary into a heart wrenching spiral of darkness. Back to Cleveland he heads broken, alone and battling the dark. But on the way Gary rediscovers how life has sent him teachers, encouragers, helpers, healers and fast new friends of faith.

Life can be hard; a cliched statement that does carry some weight to it. Author Dr. Brodie Johnson can attest to this truth personally and through the years observing his friends, family, associates, and members of his congregation enduring their own trials. The years spent witnessing people dealing with challenges led Dr. Johnson to consider writing a daily devotional to help people with charting through their miseries, which brought forth this book, Messages for Your Miseries. Within its pages of Messages for Your Miseries are words of wisdom to inspire hope to downtrodden people and remind them that God is there every step of the way. Coupled with appropriate Scripture references, each message reminds readers that though struggles are common in life, God has and always will overcome them. Readers will find a variety of situations discussed in each devotional, from dealing with disappointment to having patience to acknowledging and glorifying God in trials. The messages are concise and stay focused on the topic to give readers broad advice for whatever they might be going through. What Dr. Johnson wants to remind readers most in his messages is that society is not one to partner with, for it and people can and will lead you wrong when under the command of Satan. When you are in right standing with God, you will always feel led by Him to blessings you never thought were possible and inspiration to get through the tough times in life. The hope is that when we face the trials of this life, before we enter our eternal homes in heaven, we will be able to become Romans 5:3-5, rejoicing even in the midst of suffering. Sure, life is hard, but not impossible with God on your side!
