  • A Journey in Faith (Richard Belcher)

    All Christians believe God is omnipotent, don’t they?! But how “real” is this truth to our lives when we face difficulties and trials? Does our faith crumble when the enemy assaults? Or do we cast ourselves in faith on our God? The theme of this volume of the “Journey” series is faith.

    Professor Ira Pointer seeks to find out why a beloved pastor of 43 years in a small town mountain setting, has been eliminated from all historical records in the church and community where he served. As they pursue this mystery, they find a hostile community, which brings them face to face with a threatening situation themselves, which tests their own faith. As usual, Belcher is all at once captivating and instructive!

  • A Journey in God’s Sovereignty (Richard Belcher)

    Is there any theological doctrine more difficult and problematical than dealing with the subject of the sovereignty of God in relationship to the will of man and our responsibility before God? Is man’s will free or enslaved?

    Is there any theological doctrine more difficult and problematical than dealing with the subject of the sovereignty of God in relationship to the will of man and our responsibility before God? Is man’s will free or is it enslaved? If God is sovereign, then how can man be responsible? If man is free, then how can God be sovereign? And so Richard Belcher’s exciting Journey series continues, with a story about God’s sovereignty over all things.

    Ira Pointer and Dink find themselves in serious trouble at the seminary where they teach, because of this doctrine. They face the possible loss of their jobs, simply because the board of trustees and others do not understand these truths nor the doctrinal history of their own denomination.

Follow them as they face this new challenge of alerting others to the false teachings of this man, when the Christians around them seem more concerned about numbers and large crowds than they are about truth.

  • A Journey in Baptist History (Richard Belcher)

    Many today, who call themselves Baptists, are totally ignorant of the history and beliefs of their early forefathers. As a result, they mistakenly label those today who are holding historic Baptist beliefs and practices as heretical—or at best they say such people just cannot be Baptists!

    Ira Pointer, the central character of our “journey” books, is invited to speak for a number of weeks on Baptist history in a somewhat typical present day Baptist church. And when he teaches the true history and doctrine of the early Baptists, one man especially, the Chairman of the Deacons, tries every way possible to close down the studies. Ira Pointer, he thinks, is not a Baptist! The other people of the church are also shocked at what they hear, but they are gracious enough to listen to the presentation with open hearts and minds, and then they are shocked at what they had never been taught about Baptist history and doctrine!

    Much turmoil and danger unfolds in both mystery and uncertainty, as Ira with the backing of Dink and the pastor sets forth his convictions concerning Baptist history!
