Peterson focuses on how Luke framed his narrative and speeches as well as his theology, demonstrating that Acts was written for Christian edification and to encourage mission.
The Healing Powder
Olga Heinz has two loves-creating recipes and nursing. For thirty years, she clocked countless miles walking on every floor of the University Hospital. She mentored generations of newly graduated nurses and fed hungry staffers with her baked goodies. As she struggles with budget cuts and ever-changing hospital policies, Olga is motivated by a desire to help her patients, no matter what it takes. She encourages her student nurses to strike a balance between offering simple human comfort and applying the latest and greatest breakthroughs in medical science. Then one average day, through a series of accidents, Olga discovers a medical breakthrough-a shocking miracle cure that is deceptively sim...
My Father's Prayers
My Father's Prayers is a riveting story of Peter Lumaj's individual triumph over communism and his personal pursuit for the American dream. Lumaj's compelling narrative takes you through a whirlwind of suspense and excitement—all while laying out a unique vision on how to defeat the rise of socialism here in the United States and abroad.

From Passive to Passion
What does it take to transform silence into action, passivity into passion, and faith into courage? In this deeply personal and inspiring memoir, Hope Grace, the pen name of Lynn, chronicles her journey from the bustling streets of China to the heart of America, where she discovered her voice as an advocate for freedom, justice, and faith. Raised in a culture that often valued conformity over individuality, Hope Grace’s early life was shaped by traditions, expectations, and unspoken rules. Her immigration to the United States brought a new set of challenges, as she grappled with cultural adaptation, self-doubt, and the quiet alienation of being a stranger in a foreign land. For years, she ...
The Acts of the Apostles
A new landmark in evangelical scholarship on the book of Acts. Fifteen years in the making, this comprehensive commentary by David Peterson offers thorough exegesis and exposition of the Acts of the Apostles, drawing on recent scholarship in the fields of narrative criticism and theological analysis, incorporating insights into historical-social background, and investigating why Luke presents his material in the way he does. In view of how long the book of Acts is -- over a thousand verses -- Peterson's commentary is admirably economical yet meaty. His judgments, according to Don Carson, are always "sane, evenhanded, and judicious." Even while unpacking exegetical details, Peterson constantly scans the horizon, keeping the larger picture in mind. With its solid exegesis, astute theological analysis, and practical contemporary application, Peterson's Acts of the Apostles is a commentary that preachers, teachers, and students everywhere will want and need.
The Old Man and the Bird and Other Fictions
Six dark fictions with a cosmic scope and a delirious immediacy, these shorter pieces (2 novellas and 4 one-acts) are an aspect of Swartz's gift many will find welcome, others hugely unsettling. The Old Man and the Bird, the concluding sequence of a befuddled Harry Ricci, could be taken as a "neo-conservatively-grotesque" parable. From there it is a short stroll to Burt Spew in "Snappers," a madcap Armageddon of its own and parody of "Jaws." We have as well such oddities as "The Damnation of Winston Pollock," the saga of a disgruntled software wizard; "The Gift Horse and the Gift," the comic swan song of a disaffected shooter; "Off the Record," the threnody of "a pedophilic trans-racial hip hop" composer; and "Clippers," the outcry of a small-town American sub-literate, a latter-day, testosterone-laden barber "waiting for [his] Godot." All told, these tales are abundant reminder that it was possible to laugh before 9/11, and to chuckle, even roar, long after, en route to our current Abu Ghraibs or Guantanamos.
