The Mystery of The Last Supper
Colin Humphreys
The last time I can recall being as excited by a book as I was by Colin Humphreys' The Mystery of the Last Supper was when I read John Wenham's Easter Enigma in 1984. What Wenham did for resurrection narratives in the Gospels, Humphreys has done for the New Testament accounts of the Last Supper.

Idiot's Guide to the Middle East Conflict
Steve Maltz
If you are anything like me, you probably find the situation in the Middle East a confusing subject at best. A multitude of conflicting opinions can be heard, the roots of which can be found in personal beliefs, political leanings, religious status or economic backgrounds. These voices aside, it is fair to say that there is no other place in the world fraught with as much turmoil as you will find in the Middle East, and in Israel.

Mapping Messianic Jewish Theology
Richard Harvey
Rabbi Lionel Blue is credited with coining the saying that “Jews are the same as everyone else, only more so.” Another Jewish adage has it that where there are two Jews there will be at least three opinions. Anyone who thinks that Jewish believers in Jesus are all tallit-wearing, Davidic dancing, Torah-observant separatists will be surprised by Richard Harvey’s masterly survey of Messianic Jewish thought and practice. Mapping Messianic Jewish Theology shows that Messianic Jews are the same as other Jews, only more so, and that where there are two Jewish believers, there will be at least three opinions.
