$31.23
These stories will be enjoyed by youngsters and teens while teaching them how to live their lives to achieve happiness in this life and in the life to come. John J. Sullivan served in the U.S. Marine Corps as a fighter pilot, senior leader and graduate school professor. Later, he was a business professor at a small Young people today are faced with a deluge of what many adults would consider to be negative role models whether in professional sports, the movie industry or music. Who will young people follow and try to emulate? Who will mold their character? In Seven Virtues, John Sullivan argues that the “world” has it all wrong! A “real” man or woman is not one who aggressively guards his own “rights” and privileges, who seeks his own good even at the expense of others, who is out to maximize his wealth, worldly enjoyment and pleasure, and is always ready to challenge anyone who gets in his or her way. Rather these character traits lead only to disappointment, discouragement, depression and poverty. Sullivan shows us a better way through the character traits displayed by Jesus. Emphasizing the traits of kindness, generosity, humility, faithfulness, loyalty, courage and integrity through stories which challenge a small mouse (who lives in a typically human culture) to high adventure, the author crafts stories that will delight and instruct young people while building lasting positive character traits.

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.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak
$26.99God always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
