Pain suffered by a Christian at the hands of another believer is one of the most destructive experiences one will ever know. Few recover completely. Many are destroyed from effective Christian living forever.
Gene Edwards has crafted a beautifully and wholly unique book which points the wounded Christian to healing and to full restoration, even to triumph and ascension. If you have ever experienced unjust treatment from another believer, this monumental literary work is for you. From exquisite agony your life can enter into that of resurrection.
This is the incredible story of the journey undertaken by two men. Paul and Barnabas left their homes and risked their lives to cross seas and mountains. They were shipwrecked, beaten and faced the threat of robbery and murder. They were almost killed by floods and spent sleepless nights exposed to storms and freezing mountain temperatures. They travelled to places which had never heard the gospel and brought Jews and Gentiles to Jesus. The Silas Diary takes the hints and verses of the New Testament, adds the discoveries of modern archaeology and research and tells the story that led to the writing of the letter to the Galatian churches.
This book is the story behind Paul's most incendiary letter. Why was he so angry? Why did he write this incredible letter which tells us so much about the Lord's grace? After reading the Silas diary the letter to the Galatians will never be the same again.

Based on the book of Acts this is the story of the Apostle Paul's third journey. Told through the eyes of Paul's companion Timothy this is the tale of the journey to Ephesus and Paul's time in the city. Unlike his earlier journeys the third journey is spent mostly in one city where Paul not only raises up a church but trains young men to take on the mission of raising up the next generation of churches after his death. This is also the story of the church in Corinth and Paul's letters to that riotous, chaotic gathering. In those letters we see more of teh life of a church in the meetings of the first century, meetings that look completely like our own.
The cross, suffering, transformation, and God's ultimate purpose are the issues that unfold in this unique book by Gene Edwards. Though written for the new believer, it speaks with a depth and newness that will arrest even the most mature believer.
A story that traverses time, space and eternity to deliver its beautiful, moving and profound message, while pioneering a new style of exceptional Christian literature.
Come, take my hand. Together let us go into God...into the very center of God Himself.
Gene Edwards thus takes you on a journey into God, there to explore the invisibles.
You will discover that the center of God is Christ...at a time before Christ created. Be there with Him before He created. You will discover there is much which Christ did before He created. Watch as He passes farther into the eternals. Here is Christ before angels, Christ even before nothingness, and Christ the One who is all.
What is it like to become familiar with seeing the unseen, to live in, to think in and to comprehend another realm, with no up, no down, no space, no time...a place before time, mass or dimension? Meet a transcended Lord outside the space-time continuum, a Lord free of the fetters of creation.
Journey with your Lord who lives in the eternal now.
No subject has been more neglected (and needed) than that of understanding - and touching - the invisibles.

The Titus Diary is the story behind the letters to the Thessalonian churches. Reading the letters of Paul is often dry, devoid of context and separated from the story which led to the letters being written. In this account of the apostle Paul's second missionary journey, told through the eyes of Titus, readers accompany Paul as he travels throughout Asia Minor and Greece. They see his struggles, the persecution and the suffering which Paul and Silas endured to bring the gospel into Europe. They listen in as he writes his letters to the Thessalonians. Churches are started, disagreements are settled, persecution is endured―and the life-changing gospel moves forward.
