What Mennonites Believe
By Mark Roth on September 11, 2008 at 11:14 am
J. C. Wenger explains who Mennonites are and what they stand for. He goes on to explore beliefs held in common by Christians of all denominations and highlights those stressed by Mennonites. Included is an explanation of how the 16th-century Radical Reformation group, the Anabaptists, are the spiritual ancestors of Mennonites and how what the Anabaptists taught and the persecution they experienced affects Mennonite beliefs today.
Recommended for Mennonites as a helpful aid to explaining their beliefs and for those curious about the beliefs and lifestyle of simplicity, Biblical pacifism, strong sense of community, and service orientation of Mennonites.

Singlehood that Glorifies God
By Mark Roth on September 8, 2008 at 11:12 am
Subjects such as dating, engagement, and marriage are more popular than singlehood. Perhaps this is because more people marry than stay single, and perhaps also because most people want to be married. But it means, unfortunately, that sometimes people find themselves in situations they never have given much thought to, and just as unfortunately, situations which nobody else has given much thought to either.
Single people need to understand themselves. And they need understanding from other people. Here is a book that is honest, practical, and Scriptural — a book that addresses not only singles themselves but the families and churches where single people are found.
If you are single and want to live for all you’re worth to the glory of God, this book is for you. If you are a parent or pastor and want to prepare youths and older ones to understand singles and work together for the glory of God, this book offers an excellent format for discussions.
38 pages. Paperback. Christian Light Publications. John Coblentz.

Beauty for Ashes
By Mark Roth on September 4, 2008 at 11:07 am
When Tamar was raped by her half brother, the Bible says she was left weeping and desolate. Though 3,000 years old, this story strikes a deep chord with many people, because Tamar’s story is their story. Sexual abuse and its effects are a widespread, and often silent, scourge…even in the church.
Victims often feel robbed, contaminated, and terribly ashamed. They may lash out against God and have trouble getting along with others. They may not be able to forget or forgive, much less build meaningful relationships. Many suffer deeply, often alone. Is there a way out? Yes!
After explaining why sexual abuse can be so devastating, Beauty for Ashes leads readers through God’s Word to healing and hope. Clear, honest, and practical, this book will be appreciated by pastors, by counselors, and most especially, by those who have known the anguish of Tamar.
Paperback. 80 pages. Christian Light Publications. John Coblentz.
