Print: $14.70 Download: $5.00 The Gospel of Mark is one of the most influential writings in all of human history, and one of the most seemingly enigmatic as well. This book takes an in-depth look at the symbolism and scriptural references in the Gospel of Mark in order to explain how and why this enigmatic work was written.
This is an excellent book for both Christians and non-Christians, laymen and scholars, as it is written in an easy to read accessible style, but takes a very detailed and critical look at the texts.
The ultimate conclusion is that the Gospel of Mark was written as an allegorical story in reaction to the destruction of Judea in 70 CE, the intention of which was to portray the Judean Jews as having brought the destruction upon themselves.

Print: $14.49 Michael Tenenbaum's book "Blessed Assurance?" Revised and expanded. This book is an excellent challenge to dogma and the idea of biblical infallibility, but it’s also so much more. It explores the sort of questioning and reasoning that goes on within a person facing the possibility that what he or she has believed isn’t true. Sometimes even the most diehard believers come to realize their faith has been misplaced. What’s involved in that process? Sometimes the most diehard non-believers assume that even though they don’t believe Christianity is true, it can’t be proved with certainty that it’s false. But what if it can be?

Print: $12.95 By some estimates, over 1 billion people in the world are non-religious (humanist/secular/atheist) yet we base many of our parenting techniques and traditions on religion.

This book is an attempt to outline how non-religious parents can have rites, rituals, and practices needed for a healthy, spiritually-fulfilled family.

Print: $18.00 Download: $5.00 Did Jesus really exist? There are many views about the origin of the Jesus story. This book makes the case for the Jesus story having developed out of existing Jewish messianic and apocalyptic literature and beliefs, with no historical person at the core of the story.
This is an excellent book for both Christians and non-Christians, and actually takes a very close look at much of the symbolism and meaning of the New Testament scriptures in ways that will be very familiar to Christians.
Readers will be introduced to all of the major points in the discussion of the historicity of Jesus, as well as all of the primary source materials that underly this topic. There is no other book on Jesus historicity that provides as much access to the relevant source materials.
