Indispensable Jesus : Our Desperate World In His Dependable Hands
$30.60
The Indispensable Jesus was the catalyst for all that followed. It points to Jesus’ personal qualities and qualifications, which make Him indispensable. He was genuine and unique, truly God and truly man. In this study, many descriptive titles are lifted from Scripture and discussed in detail with the practical purpose in mind of meeting human needs. Author Douglas Martin shares stories of intelligent, honest people who were influenced by the evidence to place their faith in Jesus.
We struggle for faith and reality because we tend to forget the already finished accomplishments of Jesus. This is the heart of the book. It becomes a simplified New Testament theology. A friend with two doctorates encouraged me to put into book format what I had written as separate pamphlets. If theological terms are used, they are explained, becoming spiritual and giving meaning to the gospel without making it complex. Stories from today are windows through which we can view the life of Jesus and His influence. The hopeful outcome for readers will be that spiritual food available for intellectual giraffes will be enjoyed by the “sheep of His pastures.”
The final section contains our responses to the lover of our souls. While it is important to see that the mind matters, so that Jesus makes sense, it is likewise important to accept the fact that truth is only truly effective when it is internalized-when we treasure it in our hearts. That is what part three encourages us to do. What becomes routine is lost, but that which resides in the heart nourishes our spirits and makes life meaningful and enjoyable. It is meant to cheer the heart of readers.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$25.99The women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.

Problem Of Pain
$17.99For 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.
