Test : A Seekers Journey To The Meaning Of Life
$35.99
This book is a fresh exploration and defense of the biblical worldview. As the title indicates, it primarily targets seekers: spiritually hungry souls who can’t quite shake the feeling that there may be something to the God of the Bible after all. However, it also targets Christians, endeavoring to help them better understand what they believe, why they believe it, and how to communicate their faith skillfully to friends and loved ones. Here author Dean Davis advances a fresh paradigm on the meaning of life, arguing that human existence is not the pointless “mess” spoken of by our postmodern friends in high places, but rather a God-given test of our love of the truth; of our willingness to seek and find the one true worldview. It also defends the philosophical trustworthiness of Christ and the Bible, demonstrating how God has dramatically placed his seal of approval upon these two, marking them out as the true religious and philosophical Teachers of the human race. Davis surveys the biblical worldview in considerable depth, responds to common objections, and carefully explores the implications of Christ’s teachings for seekers. He also compares and contrasts the biblical worldview with others that modern seekers are likely to encounter, devoting special attention to atheistic naturalism, Eastern and New Age pantheism, and Islam. Along the way, he is faithful to share various episodes in own difficult search for truth, thus placing biographical flesh and blood upon the philosophical skeleton of the book. This long, challenging book will not appeal to the casual or faint-hearted. It will, however, supply both hope and help to spiritually hungry souls, souls eager to make and complete the ultimate journey to the ultimate destination: the meaning of life.

7 Last Words
$18.99Add to cartBased on his talks at New York’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Good Friday 2015, the New York Times bestselling author and editor at large of America magazine offers a portrait of Jesus, using his last words on the cross to reveal how deeply he understood our predicaments, what it means to be fully human, and why we can turn to Christ completely, in mind, heart, and soul.
Each meditation is dedicated to one of the seven sayings:
*”Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”
*”Today you will be with me in Paradise.”
*”Woman, this is your son” . . . “This is your mother.”?
*”My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”?
*”I thirst.”?
*”It is finished.”?
*”Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.”With the warmth, wisdom, and grace that infuse his works, Father James Martin explains why Jesus’s crucifixion and death on the cross is an important teaching moment in the Gospels. Jesus’s final statements, words that are deeply cherished by his followers, exemplify the depth of his suffering but also provide a key to his empathy and why we can connect with him so deeply.

Great Divorce
$17.99Add to cartC.S. Lewis takes us on a profound journey through both heaven and hell in this engaging allegorical tale. Using his extraordinary descriptive powers, Lewis introduces us to supernatural beings who will change the way we think about good and evil. In The Great Divorce C.S. Lewis again employs his formidable talent for fable and allegory. The writer, in a dream, finds himself in a bus which travels between Hell and Heaven. This is the starting point for an extraordinary meditation upon good and evil which takes issue with William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.
