Here Come The Romans is a progressive survey on the historical influence of Rome and how it influenced the times, events, customs, religious institutions, and specifically the life of Jesus, the Jewish people, and the New Testament. Its progressive style guides the reader through a six-hundred and seventy-five-year period of selected history to educate how Rome fitted the biblical narrative and story. The Bible ascribes divine inspiration to the Scriptures, but we often forget the human side. The birth of prophecy or all Scriptures originated out of human struggles, circumstances, and situations. This book will teach and inform Bible readers on the origins of parties, sects, authorities, and the backgrounds of the times that influenced the writers as they wrote the New Testament books. Rome had its starting point before 605 bc (viz. 753 BC), but its presence in the land of Judea, and Jerusalem, was not solidified until a little more than a half-century before the birth of Christ. It emerged from a simple monarchy, to a senate-ruled republic, into the world's first major superpower ruled by Caesars and Procurators. The presence of Rome, with Jews and Christians, vastly affected the writings of all twenty-seven books of the New Testament as we have them today.

ASBPM has designed a biblically strategic participant guide which assists individuals in taking an in-depth, individualized view of what they need to do to prevent them from returning to "sowing to the flesh (relapsing)." It also helps each individual to recognize their particular needs (spiritual, emotional, and mental) by identifying their strongholds, infirmities, set-up behaviors, and cravings, enabling them to select practical biblical solution to address those needs. It addresses every major area of "sowing to the flesh (relapse prevention)" that individuals in restoration from the effects of alcohol and other drugs encounter. The participant guide is extremely comprehensive and provides biblical insight into key principles necessary for relapse prevention.The Biblical Cognitive Relapse Prevention Support Group is a highly interactive open-ended group based on five phases of development. Each phase is designed to address a critical area in relapse prevention. The participant guide is designed to promote a biblical view of relapse prevention, fellowship with God, and for group participants to develop an understanding and faith in their identity in Christ, character development, and insight into overcoming the effects of addiction. Group members are required to complete exercises (self-checks, action steps, and self-ratings) at the end of each phase that are shared within the group. Fellowship with God is emphasized throughout the group process.ASBPM has also developed a group facilitators' training kit consisting of a facilitator's guide and PowerPoint presentation. The facilitator's guide is a strategic tool for instructing group facilitation in a small group setting. It is designed to provide pastors, chaplains, and ministry leaders with an effective training tool, and biblical insight for equipping ministry volunteers working with individuals being restored from addiction to drugs/alcohol.

Wisdom is a lifelong pursuit-particularly the wisdom found in Proverbs. After a decision for acceptance of the gospel, the ultimate question for Christian believers is, "How then shall we best live this one and only life we have been so graciously given?" Proverbs opens with a convincing catalog of the wonderful benefits of following God's precepts for living and goes on to provide timeless wisdom for daily practical living-about relationships, correct speech, business dealings, attitudes, relation to civil authorities, families, and other issues in life. While most of Proverbs was written or collected over three thousand years ago, human nature remains the same so the verses apply equally well today. While the analogies may be, for example, about agriculture issues (threshing grain, winemaking, olive oil pressing) or master/servant relationships, they translate superbly into modern business and life. Whether a lifelong Christian or an exploring philosopher, Proverbs is well worth an in-depth thoughtful look.

We are all in a battle every day of our lives. Satan is waging war on us and God. It's not a war we can see because it is a spiritual war. Satan is proud and he's angry that he isn't God.

I have experienced two of the most profound experiences God offers us on this earth: the overwhelming joy of adopting children, and the overpowering grief of losing a child from the tragedy of heroin addiction. In this book, I have placed everything my heart holds. It is a blend of happy experiences with my children as my husband and I raised them, horrific experiences as we helplessly watched one child's life painfully ripped apart in a storm of evil, and the unimaginable aftermath of losing a child. Tears from all these are spread throughout these pages.In his death, my child was redeemed and set free. I was left picking up the pieces of my broken heart, shaking my head, and trying to understand why. God's overpowering love and sovereignty had raised a sword against one of Satan's greatest tools, the power of addiction. Was my child nothing more than a casualty of spiritual warfare? God is good. Did I still believe that? This book chronicles my journey through His Word, listening for whispers from heaven, until finally, I too am set free.Today, Tonight, Tomorrow was written by Him, for Him, and belongs to Him. I pray that this book will help fight the spread of the addiction plague that has been so carefully orchestrated by the enemy and will help provide comfort to those already caught in the battle.
