Deep in the Vatican archives, a treasure was recently discovered. A document purporting to be written by the Magi themselves has surfaced in recent years. You likely have not even heard about this even though the translator published his work in 2010 while defining a valid chain of custody with references to this work before the fifth century perhaps as far back as the second. The find has been all but silenced as it demonstrates the Vatican knew the wise men were holy, sagacious kings (yes kings!) who originated in the Far East beyond India from the land of the Garden of Eden and never ...

Over the last few decades, many dark secrets have been pouring out of Christian communities around the world. Most of them focus on some form of misuse of trust or abuse at the hands of church leaders. For centuries religious leaders have “circled the wagons” in an attempt to preserve the money-making institutions they lead. The result has been a continual cycle of abuse and the disillusioned leaving the institutional church world in droves. From 1982-1989, author Bob Scott founded and pastored the Kansas City Fellowship with his friend and then brother-in-law Mike Bickle.

His young adulthood saw him joining the National Guard and marrying at nineteen. But all along that path, the Lord was preparing him for the call that would eventually come. This engaging biography by noted historian Richard E. Turley, Jr. takes the listener on a fascinating journey through the life of an extraordinary leader.

Who is this Jesus? Who is this man who came out of nowhere in the nowhere of the north? Rumors started to whisper about healings. A new power over demons was rising from the villages by the sea. He came for those everyone else overlooked. He restored those who had fallen out of sight – the blind, the sick, the needy, the widows, the demon-possessed. He preached a great reversal.

Those who were rich and powerful now would be brought down, and the humble would ...
