Are we becoming a nation of moral illiterates? These brief skits with their accompanying discussion questions challenge young people to consider their own value system. What about cheating, rationalizing one's behavior, setting personal goals, using your God-given talents, gambling, self-discipline, the desire for wealth, facing temptation? Youth leaders will find that these brief skits are the perfect tool for helping youth deal with their personal struggles. "The Cloacking Device" Is it okay to break the rules as long as one does not get caught? "The Remnant" Does everyone have to be just like us? "The Wish" What would a life free of problems be like? "Two Doors" Crisis solutions: which path should one take? ... and more Robert Alan Ward served in the United States Air Force and was stationed in Darmstadt, Germany. He received the B.S. degree in Christian Education from Christian Heritage College. A nineteen-year veteran of United Parcel Service, he is a busy father of a twenty-year-old son and three teenage daughters. He is a member of Emmanuel Faith Community Church in Escondido, California, where he serves in "Heart Healers," a divorce recovery ministry. He has also written Dramatic Sketches In Divorce Recovery and Dramatic Sketches From Romans, which will be published by CSS in 1999.
In this stirring sequel to "Through Fear and Trembling," Athena Arnold becomes the new President of the United States in the wake of a hotly disputed election. Veiled in her rhetoric, but undeniable by her actions is a determination to stamp out all vestiges of biblical Christian faith in America, which she regards as toxic to society. Her aim instead is to force America into the global socialist New World Order. William Walter Cunningham, her head of the Bureau of Government Affairs in New Washington State, dispatches the young, arrogant Ahmad Salazar to bring to heel the citizens of Green Valley, a small, God-fearing, mid-western community. Salazar ruthlessly forces his "control and compliance" policy on its citizens. Local Christian pastors Brandon Mills of the Green Valley Community Church and Roland Spafford of the Harvest Temple push back, setting up a clash between two diametrically opposed and irreconcilable worldviews. Pastor Brandon's rebellious teenage daughter Patricia finds herself pregnant out of wedlock, with the local family planning clinic determined to force her into an unwanted abortion. The resulting chain of events causes some believers to flee to the Dell, a hidden refuge deep in a dense forest northwest of Green Valley. Pastor Brandon is forcibly separated from his ailing wife Lisa and sent to the "Rough Acres Reeducation and Rehabilitation Camp," a gulag in North Dakota that specializes in forcing hard cases into conformity with the edicts of the New World Order. Courage, cowardice, treachery, heartbreak, healing, romance, and the sovereign hand of God; "The Gulag and the Dell" is a powerful story of redemption and of the ultimate victory of God and His people over the forces of evil.

How they lived in their world has much to tell us about how we ought to live in ours.

In this groundbreaking work, the authors reexamine humanity's most enduring account of bondage, emancipation, and freedom. The Great Exodus is the story of how one man, empowered by divine epiphany, brought the mighty ancient kingdom of Egypt to its knees. For thousands of years, this story has bolstered the faithful of three major religions, though little historical data confirms it. So the question must be asked: Did it ever really happen? Roberts, a historian and theologian, and Ward, an archaeologist, Egyptologist, and anthropologist, dig deeply into historical records to answer the most vexing questions: Is there any historical evidence for the biblical account of the Great Exodus? Was Moses a real person? Where is the Biblical Mount Sinai? What is the Ark of the Covenant, and where did it come from? Why did Moses write about the Serpent and the Nephilim? Is there a Templar and Masonic connection to the events and personages in the story? Did the Exodus take place under Amenhotep II or Amenhotep III, two pharaohs of the same royal house separated by two generations and 80-odd years? Or were Thutmoses III, Hatshepsut, and Amenhotep Son of Hapu at the core of the action? The authors present two opposing, yet strangely interlaced historical accounts for the Exodus, naming the historical pharaohs and surprising candidates for the historical Moses. While Roberts presents an account that finds its moorings in the efficacy of scriptural historicity, Ward presents a new and completely unique theory for the Exodus and its cast of characters.
