The Man Called Messiah
The Man is burdened beyond belief. It's been three years since his ministry began, and now it's come to its climax. Although fully human, he doesn't find much comfort being surrounded by his twelve closest friends. Although fully divine, he can't stomach the thought of what's set before him. After his arrest, The Man stands before a powerful ruler trapped in a political dilemma. Unseen forces fight for control as The Man awaits his verdict. Enemies since The Man's birth, The Accuser watches his wicked scheme unfold before his eyes. Support eventually arrives, but it might be too late. After all, nothing can stop the shocking plan The Father had set in motion from the beginning of time. It all ends here, on a hilltop outside the city. Three crosses rise from the summit. One will decide humanity's fate. Determined to reveal The Father's heart, The Man accepts his destiny in order to redeem the world. Little did his followers know how much it would cost him . . .
Fearsome
For three hundred years, the men of The Fifty have sworn to sacrifice themselves to defend the border of Calthus from their enemies. Hawthe, the high-ranking military officer of The Fifty, is patrolling when he finds a strange, small animal in a smuggler’s wagon. It is injured, with cruel clamps piercing its shoulders so it can’t fly. He helps the animal and brings it back to Anwen Citadel, where his men adopt the creature. The animal lives with them for a year, becoming a part of the lives of the soldiers who live in the Citadel. One day, an eagle attacks the animal. When Hawthe catches up with the eagle and the creature, he finds a beautiful woman unconscious on the ground. He brings her back to the citadel, where he interrogates her, and soon gives in to his desires. She says her name is Argen. But there is a spy in The Fifty who wants them all dead, and Hawthe isn’t sure what Argen wants at Anwen Citadel—or with him.

The essays here focus prominently and collectively on the issues of power and violence that not only pervade the historically occupied Jewish community of first-century Palestine, but also are clearly visible throughout Matthew's narrative account.
