New Book Release: Unveiling Deception

Unveiling Deception: Understanding Truth and Lies in Spiritual Warfare by Jonathan K. Corrado

Deception is as old as the garden—and as modern as today’s headlines. In Unveiling Deception, Jonathan K. Corrado draws on two decades of military service and deep biblical study to reveal how lies are crafted, disguised, and deployed in spiritual warfare. Parallels between military psychological operations (PSYOP) and Satan’s ancient strategies expose why falsehood is so persuasive—because it always begins with truth.

This is more than theory. It is a field manual for Christians who want to stand firm in a culture of distortion. Readers will discover how to spot deception early, anchor their faith in God’s unshakable word, and defend truth with clarity and conviction.

Unveiling Deception is both a wake-up call and a call to arms: truth is under attack, but victory in Christ is secure. Now is the time to put on the armor, sharpen discernment, and stand boldly in the light.

New Book Release: Jewish Law: New Perspectives

Jewish Law: New Perspectives by Suzanne Last Stone and Yonatan Y. Brafman, eds.

New Perspectives on Jewish Law combines the detailed work characteristic of scholarship on Jewish law with an orientation towards its broader academic and cultural significance. It shifts the study of Jewish law from its focus on legal doctrine and history to legal theory, achieving in the process a more sophisticated understanding of law that will benefit both the legal academy and Jewish studies. By employing the framework of legal theory, it similarly corrects an over-emphasis on the metaphysical presuppositions and philosophical implications of Jewish law, which has tended to cast it as exceptional relative to other legal systems. Moreover, it answers to old-new anxieties about law, often symbolized by Judaism, raised by contemporary feminists and by philosophers who are animated by recent interpretations of Paul through actual engagement with the Jewish legal tradition.

The volume consists of three parts. The first focuses on the critique of positivism, its implications, and the new directions that it opens up for the analysis of Jewish law. The second part takes stock of recent methodological developments in the study of Jewish legal texts and investigates the relation between Jewish law and the disciplines, including history, literary theory, ritual studies, the digital humanities, as well as traditional approaches to Jewish learning. It concludes with a reflection on these interdisciplinary contributions from the perspective of legal theory. The third part explores the connections among Jewish law, philosophy, and culture critique. It assesses the relation or lack thereof between Jewish law and modern Jewish thought, and examines specific issues of philosophical interest, including truth and normativity. It also investigates the image of Jewish law in the contemporary critique of law as well as how Jewish law could productively contribute to that debate. It concludes with a reflection on these studies from the perspective of philosophy of law.

New Book Release: Defying Deception

Defying Deception: A Field Guide to Understanding and Countering Satan’s Strategy of Deception by Jonathan K. Corrado

Comprehensive training and well-established tactics are the trademark qualities of a solid and robust military training program designed to win wars. As a result, well-trained soldiers can think and act soundly while engaged in warfare. Like soldiers, Christians must similarly train to become prepared to make biblically-sound choices while engaged in spiritual warfare--specifically, deception. Deception, as clearly conveyed in the Bible, is Satan's weapon of choice, therefore, if understood properly, can be thwarted effectively. Defying Deception: A Field Guide to Understanding and Countering Satan's Strategy of Deception is a book for those who want to raise their awareness of the enemy's strategies and to mature their spiritual walk by offsetting the enemy's deceptive methods with practical means. That said, this field guide establishes a parallel between Satan's deceptive tactics and military Psychological Operations (PSYOP), operations to convey false information to influence emotions, motives, and reasoning because both seek to lead people into falsehood to influence decision-making in a destructive way. This field guide discusses Satan's deceptive strategy within the context of PSYOP. Armed with this information, practical defensive strategies are developed using well-established, effective military tactics to assist readers in overcoming spiritual deception.

New Book Release: Kingdom Journey

Kingdom Journey: A Call to Recover the Central Theme of Scripture by Sean P. Finnegan

News flash: "The Bible doesn't teach that people go to heaven or hell when they die." Rather, it teaches that God's kingdom will come to this earth in judgment and restoration, making everything wrong with the world right. The doorway into the age to come is not death but the return of Christ when his followers experience resurrection rather than disembodiment. This simple idea is not only the key to understanding the biblical vision of the future, but it also formed the core of Jesus's gospel message, and it provides the motivation to live out your faith today. The goal of this book is nothing short of igniting a revolution in the church's understanding of the kingdom of God. Kingdom Journey marries a biblical exploration to a historical investigation to explain not only what the kingdom of God is, but also how Christianity lost this precious pearl of great price. Thankfully, several movements over the past five centuries have initiated recoveries of the kingdom idea, but many Christians remain in the dark, beset with medieval folk theology. This book will open your eyes to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness with clarity and vigor.
