This volume guides readers through the world of the Bible, the land where the decisive religious experiences of the ancient Israelites and the earliest Christians took place. One cannot understand Judaism or Christianity without knowing not only the history and culture but also the geography of the biblical lands. Here the authors bring together the fruits of contemporary historical and archaeological research to introduce the writings, events, and, most important the land of the Bible. The Land and the Book provides an overview of the geography and the history of the Bible by the use of brief descriptions of each of the major areas in which the events of the biblical narrative took place ( primarily Palestine, Egypt, and Syria) and reviews of the history of ancient Israel, beginning with the patriachs and continuing through the New Testament era and the crusader period to the present. Extensive archaeological and historical descriptions set the stage for a more thorough understanding of the biblical drama by detailing the natural environment of a site; the human artifacts, buildings, and structures discovered there; and the manner in which all illuminate the biblical material * Includes charts and descriptions of archaeological periods, a chronological chart of biblical events, and a glossary of terms-- helps the reader better understand the world of the Bible.Binding Type: Paperback

Great complete start to finish steps setting up a website online for programmers
Format: Paperback
It was nice to have a collection of topics covered over the whole development and deployment process. As a newly retired CSC professor who has not done any work in the Web area it was nice to have so much basic useful material in one place. The source code examples all being online to download is very nice to help overcome the requirement for the book to limit full examples of complete code. I offered to put up a small website for and small non-profit and this text gave me information on every step from finding a host to front-end and backend development at little or no cost. Saved me a lot of online research as it gave a complete picture of what will be needed from start to end. It is a Dummies book so if you want to become expert it only gets you started but far enough into each topic to allow you to grow on your own after that.

Awesome Book!!
Format: Kindle
I was a little skeptical about reading this book due to previous encounters with the Holy Spirit concerning Tim Ross. However, I believe GOD has given me clearance to read this book, and because of this book or shall I say the GOD given words in this book, Welcome to the Basement has been a comprised or a condensed yet straight to the point version of another book I was in the process of reading. It took the leg work out and made it into a simple and clear insight on how to practice the way of Jesus based on the life of Jesus and how to invite others to the table to eat with Jesus. I truly enjoyed this book and can't wait to slowly start back getting down into the basement. Thank You GOD and thank you, Tim Ross, for this book. It was a goldmine!! Peace, love, blessings, Erika.

You go up by going down…Welcome To The Basement!
Format: Hardcover
Tim Ross has taken the concept of The Basement and splashed them in black and white on the pages of this book!
WTTB is a not only a guide but quite literally a masterclass on how to love the way Jesus loves. As a follower of Jesus for some time, I am impressed by Tim’s fresh perspectives, vivid writing style and conversational approach to this work. Welcome To The Basement simply feels like Tim on an extended episode of The Basement podcast.
This page-turner of a book is a must read for all people who want to experience a radical approach to doing ministry in a postmodern world among people who question the validity of scripture and the relevance of Jesus and His Church.
Become a “Basement dweller”!

Press B!
Format: Hardcover
"Welcome to the Basement" by Tim Ross is an incredible guide to achieving true greatness through humility and service. Having known Ross as a great mentor to a dear friend, I was eager to dive into this book. The principles he share are both radical and deeply needed in our world today. This fully revised edition of his previous work, "Upset the World," is timely and relevant, addressing today's unique challenges. Ross's personal insights and practical guidance make this book a must-read for anyone looking to have a deeper connection to God. The audiobook, read by Ross himself, adds an extra layer of connection and authenticity.
