Quest for the Pillars of Wealth (A Children's Guide to Growing Rich) 11 reviews
J. J. Pritchard
Lantern Pr, 2000
Good...even if you're not very young
I received a copy of this book as a promotion and, being interested in investing and active in educating kids about the stock market, I read through it in one night. I have to say, Mr. Pritchard has an excellent way of putting good money sense into the minds of kids. I encourage you to pick up a copy of this book for yourself or your kids...30 years from now they'll be thanking you when they ...

God is no fool21 reviews
Lois A Cheney
Pillar Books, 1977
Thank you so much for reprinting this gem!!
I have loved this book since I read it in college almost 30 years ago and, unfortunately, lost my copy. The popularity of this beautiful set of essay-like prayers is evident by how rare and expensive used copies of this book were. Reprinting this wonderful book was a answer to my specific prayer and I am buying copies to give as gifts. Favorites are Bits and Pieces, and Thank God as well as so ...

His eye is on the sparrow: An autobiography9 reviews
Ethel Waters
Pillar Books, 1975
His Eye Was on Ethel/Ethel's Eye on Him
I've had the hardback 1951 copy of this book for some time, just picked it up to read last week. It is an astounding story of faith, determination, and strength;It is also an excellent insight into Black History pre-Martin Luther King. I hope the paperback version of this is being read. (and I wish Nikki Giovanni would read it as well).
Highly recommended.

Seven Pillars of Wisdom10 reviews
T. E. Lawrence
Dorset Press, 1989
A view of warfare from a bygone era
I will echo the sentiments of previous reviewers in extolling the remarkable style of Seven Pillars...the detailed descriptions of the desert and the bedu bring the reader right into the book.
I was taken aback by the distinct differences between the book and the movie, even with having a good working knowledge of this era. For those who only know Lawrence from the movie, please read this book ...

The Letter to the Ephesians (Pillar New Testament Commentary)14 reviews
Peter T. O'Brien
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1999
Readable, Insightful, and Pastoral
This commentary on Ephesians is a mainstay in my research on this letter by Paul. I am reading and researching Ephesians for the purpose of writing my own commentary for eventual use in a sermon series, and use this book as well as others as a check on my own exegesis. It is highly readable, very insightful, and contains enough detail without being overly simplistic on one hand and overly ...

Corrie Ten Boom

Like a photo album or a special exhibit
Having lost her family and her home after her imprisonment in the Ravensbruck camp, few people would have thought that Corrie ten Boom could have accomplished much. But in the years that followed, this elderly Dutch spinster traveled the world, spreading the Gospel boldly in over sixty countries. In this book, Corrie relates some of her experiences as she follows the Lord's voice, telling His ...

Seven Pillars of Health Personal Health Improvement Kit11 reviews
Don Colbert
Siloam Press, 2008
Seven Pillars of Health
This is a great book for those with a lot of money to implement most of the suggestions made by the author and his wife. You have to be a very good
dietician to fix the meals. Who can eat fruits and vegtables all day long?
The water portion if follwed will cost between 2000 and 5000 dollars.
The exercises are good but not for an old person or someone in a wheelchair.
The audience is geared ...

The Letter of James (Pillar New Testament Commentary)18 reviews
Douglas J. Moo
Apollos (Enk), 2000
Great
This is Moo's second commentary on the epistle of James. He wrote his first one in 1985 as part of the Tyndale series. This commentary is the result of fifteen years of reflection on that work. The content of this commentary makes it evident that this is the mature thought of a noted scholar on the letter of James. Those fifteen years left him more convinced "that the heart of the letter is ...

5 Pillars of the Visual Workplace (For Your Organization!)8 reviews
Hiroyuki Hirano
Productivity Press, 1995
Readable and practical book
I checked this out from the library and read it in one day (I didn't do anything else all day, and I'm a fast reader). Hirano's style is very educational: he resorts to humor, he states his biases clearly, he details step-by-step instructions, he warns about pitfalls, he gives his own insight on overcoming those pitfalls. He walks the walk: the only photo of him in the book is of him cleaning ...

The 3 Secret Pillars of Wealth7 reviews
James Burns
White Diamond Press, 2008
This should be a high school requirement
The 3 Secret Pillars of Wealth should be a reading requirement for all high school kids in America. I truly feel that young people need, and can benefit from this type of financial education. James did a fantastic job of making finance simple, which is very refreshing because finance can be an intimidating subject. That is probably why most Americans run away from the topic, and then find ...

The Language of God in Prophecy, 4th in The Language of God Series6 reviews
Helena Lehman
Pillar of Enoch Ministry, 2006
Goes Deeper Than Any Other Existing Study of Prophecy
This book is far more than a study of Bible Prophecy. In fact, it goes way beyond the written words of the Bible in scope. First, it discusses prophecies hidden in the Bible like the Bible codes, Menorah codes, the codes found in the structure of the Hebrew Alphabet, and the prophecies hidden in the Psalms. Then it jumps outside of the Bible to find prophecies that were written in the Zodiac Star ...

Bazi The Destiny Code Revealed - Delve Deeper into the Four Pillars of Destiny7 reviews
Joey Yap
JY Books Sdn Bhd, 2006
very informative
This book is a must-have for anyone seeking a deeper understanding in BaZi. It is the sequel to the first book, BaZi - The Destiny Code, and it elaborates further on the relationships between the 5 elements. If after reading the first book you still had difficulties interpreting a natal chart, as I did, then I would strongly recommend that you also read this book as it provides much more ...

The 8 Pillars of Financial Greatness7 reviews
Brian Nelson Ford
Outskirts Press, 2008
So glad I found this book!
This is just what I needed to get me on track financially. Compared with the Rich Dad books this was way more helpful for a person like me who isn't obsessed with money. The way this book is organized and the breadth of subjects covered really helped me have a clear picture of what to do step-by-step to succeed financially. And I feel like after reading this book I can actually accomplish what it ...

FROM THE BOOK...
The Stone of Destiny traced -- presentation of the cumulative evidence which reveals the fate of the Bible's most famous stone.
The scriptures are full of references to "stones", both literal and symbolic. One such stone is identified as the stone upon which the patriarch Jacob rested his head when he dreamed of the heavenly ladder. This stone has not received the attention it deserves from ...

Polishing God's Monuments: Pillars of Hope for Punishing Times8 reviews
Jim Andrews
Shepherd Press, 2007
The message in this book has far to great an impact to be missed.
When Jim Andrew's daughter, Juli, was in college, she contracted mononucleosis. Although they didn't realize it at the time, this would be the first in a cascade of baffling, debilitating medical problems.
In Polishing God's Monuments, the author writes honestly of his daughter's struggles and how it impacted the entire family. Alternating between chapters describing Juli's heartbreaking ...
