Heaven’s applause comes from God and is within your reach. A joy that cannot be stifled? A peace that cannot be broken? A happiness that cannot be threatened? Such joy exists. It is a sacred delight, a holy contentment. You cannot open the Bible without reading about it.You cannot live a truly fulfilling life without this joy. And it’s closer than you think.Jesus describes sacred delight in the Beatitudes, the introduction to the extraordinary Sermon on the Mount. Max Lucado, in his masterful exploration of lasting joy, shows you how these familiar yet revolutionary rules for living can bless your life beyond all possible imagination. What is sacred delight?It is God doing things we would never imagine:• wearing diapers• riding donkeys• washing feet• taking a nap while the storm rages• dying for your sins.Sacred delight is good news that enters through the back door of your heart.It’s what you’ve always dreamed of and never expected.It’s the too-good-to-be-true coming true.It’s having God as your advocate, your father, your greatest admirer, and your best friend.It’s the King of kings cheering you on and making His applause ring out… just for you.

Richard Wurmbrand, who directly experienced the face of 'true' communism and suffered fourteen years of imprisonment in his native Romania for his Christian faith and pastoral ministry, reveals in this book the other side of Karl Marx.Richard Wurmbrand has a thesis to prove regarding possible connections between Marxism and the Satanist church.No one had ever written on this subject before, and Richard Wurmbrand provides many contributions and valid testimonies.One must agree that in Marxism, especially in the U.S.S.R. and Mao's China, with the deliberate suppression of millions of innocents, the force of evil truly seems to have been at work.Marxism is the great fact of modern life. But Marx had written in the 'Communist Manifesto' that his goal was the abolition not only of all religions but also of all morals, which would have made everything permissible.There is no possibility of agreement between Christianity and Marxism. The kingdom of Jesus is one of truth, love, justice, peace, and liberation.

The reality of the underground church in China, one of the countries where Christians are most persecuted and human rights are trampled daily. A thrilling and tear-jerking testimony that, however, greatly stimulates us Christians in the free world to deepen our faith and effectively put into practice love for our neighbor.Twenty years of harsh imprisonment for preaching the Gospel were not enough to silence Pastor Samuel Lamb, who is still active today as the leader of a house church with over a thousand members.

A read that makes one reflect on the substance of Christian faith.

“Silence suddenly fell in the cell – then frantic shouts of “Allahu Akbar!” erupted. I immediately held my breath, shocked. I wide-eyed. The men jumped up from the floor and embraced each other with gestures of jubilation. They raised their arms in triumph and danced around the crowded cell, patting each other on the back and smiling. I moved very slowly towards the nearest wall, my hands suddenly damp. Drops of sweat appeared above my upper lip and on my forehead, and I tried not to tremble. For several minutes, my cellmates celebrated the success of the terrorist attack in France. I had seen that kind of Muslim celebration on television, but experiencing it firsthand was shocking. I realized, in those terrifying moments, that I had been imprisoned with Islamic extremists. And I would learn that my cellmates were, in fact, ISIS members.”   Petr Jašek is the son of a pastor who was persecuted in communist Czechoslovakia. In 2002, he joined the humanitarian organization The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) to use his professional experience in healthcare to serve persecuted Christians in many nations, especially those in Africa where Christian persecution is most violent, such as Nigeria or Sudan.
