In light of the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, Charisma House recently announced the release of the e-book version of The Harbinger, a 9/11-themed title.

Written by Jonathan Cahn, president of Hope of the World ministries and senior pastor and Messianic rabbi of the Jerusalem Center/Beth Israel in Wayne, N.J., The Harbinger paints a fictional narrative of the downfall of present-day America that mirrors the demise of ancient Israel foretold in an Old Testament passage.

The Harbinger is a prophetic message that is a wake-up call concerning America, the world, and the future,” said Tessie DeVore, executive vice president of Charisma House. “The book is presented in a unique format that combines true biblical prophecy with real historical fact.”

The message behind The Harbinger initially came from a sermon Cahn delivered to his congregation based on Is. 9 that uncannily paralleled real-life events. “We felt a sense of urgency to release The Harbinger to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks,” said DeVore. “This is the first time a CBA publisher has released a title in a digital format first, then as a traditional book.”

A frequent guest contributor on television ministry programs, Cahn will promote The Harbinger on Christian television and social networking Web sites as well as in national print and television advertising.

A paperback edition of the book will follow Jan. 3, 2012.

Charisma House is part of Charisma Media, formerly Strang Communications, which also publishes Christian Retailing magazine.
