Christ in the Old Testament is a handsome pamphlet that explores the lives of 13 biblical people who prefigured the Messiah. This bestselling 14-panel foldout chart examines types, parallels and illustrations of Jesus throughout the Old Testament, including men such Melchizedek, King David, Adam, Noah, Abraham, Joseph, and many others. When viewed through the prism of Christ's life, death and resurrection, these Old Testament characters and their roles in Old Testament history take on new dimensions. Students will discover how their lives can also point to Christ.

Turn Halloween into Something Positive in Your Family and Neighborhood
Many Christians are under the mistaken belief that Halloween, or more specifically All Saint's Day, was established for the purpose of Christianizing a pagan holiday called Samhain.
But Halloween actually started as a Christian festival, not the other way around.
Many Christians dread the coming of Halloween, trying to shield their children from every part of it, and wishing it would go away. And that s a shame, because Halloween is distinctly Christian in origin, and there are many ways that Christians can re-claim Halloween as a Christian celebration.
I have advocated through the years that we recapture Halloween as a part of the Christian calendar, a sort of Christian Memorial Day, and honor Christians who have been a part of our heritage.
Rich Buhler, broadcaster, speaker, author and founder of TruthOrFiction.com
How To Recapture Halloween as a Christian Holiday
• Know the original purpose of All Hallow's Eve : Early Christians wanted to honor those who gave their lives for the Gospel• Discover that Samhain was never associated with a festival of the dead until 1890.
• Use the 3 ways for using Halloween to give positive message to our family and neighborhood.
What s the first step?
• Know your history. You could read a long book on church history, that hopefully has a section on pagan religions.OR
• You can have a quick explanation of the key facts by reading a short 14-page pamphlet. I love this pamphlet! I am especially glad it gives the true history, rather than suggesting Halloween was merely a Christian attempt to redeem pagan holidays.
Rich Buhler, broadcaster, speaker, author and founder of TruthOrFiction.com
In 30 Minutes, the Christian Origins of Halloween Will Help You
• Know the origins of Halloween.• Understand what Christians wanted to celebrate.
• Find out how Halloween got confused with a day of the dead
• How to handle the symbols of Halloween and use them to teach positive things.

About the Author
Angie Mosteller is the director of Celebrating Holidays, a non-profit educational organization dedicated to teaching the Christian history of holidays.
Holidays afford a unique opportunity to understand significant aspects of the Christian faith, ... My goal is to help Christians who are seeking to better understand the history of Americans holidays and to offer useful resources for those who want to make their celebration more meaningful and creative. Author Angie Mosteller
What other people are saying...
"It is a delight to see how Angie Mosteller interprets and thoroughly explains, the celebration of many holidays, through research and a heart ransomed by Christ! Her firm understanding of Jesus' love and sacrifice, beautifully enhances the Truth of God's heart of celebration, among His people. Angie is a talented, Spirit-filled woman, wife, mother and friend who chooses to bless all in her path!"
Paula Webb, Women's Ministry Director, Daybreak Church, Carlsbad, CA
"The first time I read one of Angie's books on American holidays I was amazed at how thorough and readable it was. I'm not an academic, she is, but she crafts each book into an exciting historical story covering our Nations's traditions, symbols, and songs from a Christian worldview. It's fun to read and so easy to incorporate into teachable moments with my children during the holidays. I'm always sharing her books and website with friends during the holidays."
Wendy Brunner, Mom Blogger at "Love Covers a Multitude of Sons"

Put this in the hands of a grieving friend to ease the journey through stages of grief. Words of comfort and biblical examples of grief for losses of many kinds help to give perspective, meaning, and hope to the devastation of loss through death, divorce, and the ending of significant relationships.
Loss is inevitable. But hope is available.
Everyone goes through loss, but the pain of losing a loved one is especially difficult. It seems that the sadness will go on forever. Every moment is consumed with the overwhelming grief that the loss is final. The agony makes us wonder if the tears will ever stop. Our hearts break with despair. We desperately want some sense of comfort. We need compassion and understanding. We long for a time of renewed hope and a reason for living.
And the Scripture gives us this message of comfort:
God sees your broken heart. He hears your cries. He cares for you and has a message you need to hear.
These are the Bible stories and passages I hung onto when my marriage ended in divorce. I had to remind myself over and over of God s care and faithfulness, even when I was in despair. I m glad I listened to God rather than to my fears. The words and promises in this pamphlet pulled me through. Single Mother, So. California
