| Today's world is filled with stories of oppression, war, famine, and extreme poverty.

But such a call can feel overwhelming. Can each believer truly make a difference? Joel Vestal believes that not only is it possible to make a difference, it is essential. Wanting More shares Joel's extraordinary travels around the world and through human suffering. Joel's stories and insights will challenge indifference and encourage readers to actively express their compassion. And as they engage with the world around them, they'll find a deeper and richer walk with Christ. |

| This book will take you where you never thought you’d go, and leave you wanting never to return. It will ruin your complacency about the suffering in this world, and it will stir you—compel you—to do something about it. It will show you what the cutting edge of your life can look like, and it will challenge and equip you to live there. And it will help you discover an intimacy with God experienced only by those who lay down their lives on behalf of the things that move his heart. Kay Warren takes you face to face with a young AIDS outcast in Africa living out her last days beneath a tree. She ushers you inside the mud hut of a fifteen-year-old orphan in Malawi raising his younger brother and baby sister. You’ll feel what Kay felt—the shock, the heartbreak, the anger, the tears. And like her, you’ll never be the same. As the needs of others take on faces, Kay’s passion and determination to make a difference will become yours. Open these pages—and discover the impact of a dangerously surrendered life as you exchange your agenda for God’s. |

| This commentary on Daniel by Joyce Baldwin is one of many excellent works written by Baldwin. The introduction includes an analysis of the history of Daniel, regarding its history, linguistics, and interpretation. Baldwin then goes on to analyze the book verse by verse, tying it into the historical situation of the book of Daniel. Baldwin does not try to give definitions to the various prophetic elements of Daniel, rather she gives past interpretations with possible meanings. This is good reading for pastors, teachers, and lay people alike. |
