They speak with other tongues (Pillar books) 21 reviews
John L Sherrill
McGraw Hill, 1976
A Classic - as relevant now as the day it was written
I first read "They Speak with Other Tongues" as a very young pastor, more than forty years ago. At the time I already believed in and practiced the gift of speaking in tongues. Still, I found this book to be a tremendous confirmation to my faith. It was especially interesting to me because the author was a non-Pentecostal and at that time the vast majority of people who spoke in tongues belonged ...

The Letter of James (Pillar New Testament Commentary)17 reviews
Douglas J. Moo
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 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 ...

Lois A Cheney
Pillar Books, 1977
Loved it so much that we're going back to print!
I, like most of the other reviewers of this book, fell in love with it in the early 70's. It is the only book in my library that I have never lent out. It affected my faith and my own writing style so tremendously that you can quote one line and I can tell you which one it came from. It sent me on a quest to find Dr. Cheney and do what I could to get the book reprinted so I could finally share ...

James Conroyd Martin

A Polish Love Story in the Time of King Stanislaw
This excellent novel, which gets its name from the Polish proverb "Push not the river; it will flow of its own accord", is the story of two cousins, both countesses, who are in love with the same untitled man in a period of eightieth century history, a time when Russia, Prussia and Austria were bent on conquering and dividing Poland.
The characters are well developed, the dialogue is free ...

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 to the Ephesians (Pillar New Testament Commentary)11 reviews
Peter T. O'Brien
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1999
Outstanding - 1st Choice on Ephesians
Peter O'Brien's outstanding commentary on Ephesians completes his trilogy on the Prison Epistles (see his commentary on Philippians in the NIGTC and Colossians-Philemon in the Word series) and, in my judgment, ranks as first among commentaries on Ephesians. Writing from a solid Evangelical stance, O'Brien defends Pauline authorship and wrestles honestly with Paul's majestic, but often complex, ...

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 ...

The Language of God in Prophecy, 4th in The Language of God Series (The Language of God)6 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 ...

5 Pillars of the Visual Workplace (For Your Organization!)7 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 ...

Jacob's Pillar: Stone of Destiny9 reviews
E. Raymond Capt
Artisan Publishers, 2005
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 ...

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.

Song of Abraham6 reviews
Ellen Gunderson Traylor
Pillar Books, 1975
gripping
This book takes you into God's history and tries to fill in on Abraham's life. It gives you possible reasons for why he acted like he did and glimpses into what his life might have been like. I found this book very hard to put down and extremely easy to pick back up. Each time I have read it, I find new details in it that I passed over before. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Jim Andrews
Press, 2007
A Life Impacting Book
There are few books that have impacted me like this one has. In a time when so many churches preach prosperity, happiness without an end and a life with no problems, Pastor Jim Andrews reminds us that God's purpose in life is not to make us happy, but to make us holy. As he relates the story of his daughter and son-in-law, who seem to know no end to their "sorrows", he teaches that even in the ...

In this book, Pajajopi Bamatojasi, called Pajo for short, is the last of a hated race of hair-covered, smelly creatures called potheems.
