His dreams of being a star on the PGA tour are gone. His ex-wives and two kids don't much like him. He has run out of money and friends. Except for one man, Lucas Friend, who invites ProV to Scotland for his first experience with links golf. Both of them get more than they ever imagined.

So off the twosome go, in search of a treasure at the greatest golf course in the world, if they can find it in the Orkney Islands. Is it all a dream or is it real? And if it is authentic, can his new discoveries be real enough to take back to California, to change his life, to mend his broken relationships, to find Wisdom? Come. Follow these golf pilgrims into a future that might show you how good life can be.]]> The year is 2056, and at age 43, Paul "ProV" Player has lost his way.

Bounds, and Caleb T. Friedeman Be holy because I am holy. Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect. The Christian life includes many demands, but perhaps none are as challenging or as misunderstood as the biblical command to "be holy" (Leviticus 11:44 and 1 Peter 1:16) or to "be perfect" (Matthew 5:48). How should we understand these charges? In this volume, three scholars from the Wesleyan tradition offer a collective treatment of the theme of holiness that includes:

• exegesis of key biblical passages
• a survey across church history
• theological reflections on the relationship between entire sanctification and other doctrines

In addition, the coauthors constructively argue for a "neo-holiness" model that encourages the pursuit of Christian perfection but avoids the pitfalls of Pelagianism by incorporating historic understandings of grace and the work of the Holy Spirit with the best of the Wesleyan tradition. Here, the commands to "be holy" and to "be perfect" take on new meaning. What may have been a burden becomes a blessing.]]> Matt Ayars, Christopher T. Bounds, and Caleb T.

If you are in affliction, if you are in adversity and trial, there is a promise for you. In joy and sorrow, in health and in sickness, in poverty and in riches, in every condition of life, God has a promise stored up in His Word for you. This classic book by Dwight L. Moody brings to light the necessity of studying the Scriptures, presents methods which help stimulate excitement for the Scriptures, and offers tools to help you comprehend the difficult passages in the Scriptures. To live a victorious Christian life, you must read and understand what God is saying to you. Moody is a master of using stories to illustrate what he is saying, and you will be both inspired and convicted to pursue truth from the pages of God’s Word. Originally published as Pleasure & Profit in Bible Study. About the Author Dwight L. Moody, determined to make a fortune, arrived in Chicago and started selling shoes. But Christ found him and his energies were redirected into full-time ministry. And what a ministry it was. Today, Moody’s name still graces a church, a mission, a college, and more. Moody loved God and men, and the power of a love like that impacts generations.]]> I will never forget thy precepts; for with them thou hast caused me to live. (Psalm 119:93) There is no situation in life for which you cannot find some word of consolation in Scripture.
