The Derision of Heaven

"Written by the pulpit minister for the Carter Lake Road Church of Christ in Bowie, Texas, this in-depth study of the book of Daniel compares the Israelite exile to today's church. Like in his first book, The Epic of God: A Guide to Genesis, Whitworth makes scholarship accessible and draws surprising applications from the text." - Christian Chronicle, March 2014

"The Derision Of Heaven will help you answer these questions: How can we be the "light of the world" in such abject darkness? and how can God still be in control of all things? More than a guide to Daniel, this book is an urgent message for the exiled church. As you journey through the story and visions of Daniel, you will be awestruck by God's sovereignty and power, emboldened to live a life that glorifies him, and encouraged to serve faithfully in his eternal Kingdom."
