4 Small Words
$14.99
We live in a world addicted to sound bites. Technology has taught us how to say more with less. Text Messaging, Facebook Status Updates, and Twitter have conditioned us to pack meaning into 140 characters or less. So when it comes to a story as theologically thick, infinitely intriguing, and rich with history, metaphor and meaning as the Story of God, the thought of trying to understand or communicate that story can be overwhelming. But what if it weren’t as complicated or daunting as that? What if the essence of the Story of God could be told in just Four Small Words? What if those words could tell us more than we could ever imagine about God’s story and about our own? With the use of four simple words: Of, Between, With, and In, Stevens gives readers a clear and understandable way to grasp the big story of the Bible. We are “of” God – created by and of Him. Then something comes “between” us and God, and He finds a way to bridge that to keep us in relationship with Him. Jesus comes and lives “with” us, and the Holy Spirit is the miracle of God “in” us.
Sometimes the biggest ideas can be shared and revealed in a few small words. Stevens’ creative and fresh look at the story of the Bible will give new readers, as well as those who have grown up with this important book, new ways to understand the big picture of God’s word.
His Four Small Words will help every reader remember and follow what God was – and is – doing in the life of the world He created.

Devil At My Heels
$14.99Add to cartAthletically gifted, Louis Zamperini propelled himself from the tough streets of Southern California to the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and to an NCAA mile record at USC that stood for 20 years. When war came he left the track for a B-24-a move that would have heartbreaking consequences. On a routine mission his plane crashed into the shark-infested Pacific and he would drift 2,000 miles for 47 days before being found by the Japanese. As a prisoner of war, Zamperini endured two years of horrible torture and humiliation at the hands of a psychopathic guard nicknamed “The Bird.” Yet Zamperini endured and returned home a hero.
Unfortunately, the terrible memory of his experiences haunted him. Zamperini turned to alcohol and spiraled into the depths of despair until a young preacher named Billy Graham helped him rediscover the faith that would eventually lead him to return to Japan and personally forgive all his now-imprisoned captors. Moving and unforgettable, terrifying and inspirational, Devil At My Heels is not to be missed.

Problem Of Pain
$17.99Add to cartFor centuries Christians have been tormented by one question above all — If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain? C. S. Lewis sets out to disentangle this knotty issue but wisely adds that in the end no intellectual solution can dispense with the necessity for patience and courage.
