Marriage Builder : Creating True Oneness To Transform Your Marriage
$18.99Bestselling author Larry Crabb cuts to the heart of the biblical view of marriage: the ‘one-flesh’ relationship. He argues convincingly that the deepest needs of human personality—security and significance—ultimately cannot be satisfied by a marriage partner. We need to turn to the Lord, rather than our spouse, to satisfy our needs. This frees both partners for ‘soul oneness,’ a commitment to minister to our spouse’s needs rather than manipulating them to meet our own needs. With ‘soul oneness’ comes renewed ‘body oneness,’ where couples enjoy sexual pleasure as an expression and outgrowth of a personal relationship.
The Marriage Builder also identifies three building blocks essential to constructing marriage: the grace of God, true marriage commitment, and acceptance of one’s mate. Discussion questions are included to aid couples who want to dig into it and apply the principles to their own lives and marriages. The Marriage Builder is for anyone who longs to transform marriage from trial to triumph.

He Prayed : The Power Of Prayer In Making Life Choices
$12.98Laurus Books
William Ray Houston was twenty-six years old when he knelt by the side of his bed and prayed aloud. He addressed his prayer to the Holy Spirit, firmly believing that Jesus Christ had ascended to the right hand of the Father and that He had sent a Comforter to be within those who had accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. Having been born again at a young age, William learned that including God in his decisions and allowing the Holy Spirit to direct his path often opened doors that he could not have known about. From where he lived and worked to choosing the right wife, William always called on the Lord and was often led in simple, but sometimes almost miraculous, ways. Part Two of He Prayed is a deliberately simple explanation of how he did it and how you can, too!Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Saved But Not A Christian
$18.11If you picked this book cover to read, then you are one step closer to one of the best guides for Christian maturity ever published. Inside are the answers to why Christianity gets a “bad rep” in today’s world. New believers need mentoring and mentors need to understand their role. The steps to mentoring in the ‘faith’ are outlined in an easy conversational style. You will pick up this book again and again and share over and over. Included is a revised study guide, perfect for “Sunday school” and group discussions. Saved but not a Christian was written with not just new converts in mind, but seasoned believers as well. I’m sure most of you can relate to feeling some frustration during your journey when you missed the mark, and hearing those words, “I thought you were a Christian.” The weight of succumbing to what the church believes a Christian should be. And it doesn’t stop there it continues in our work place, to those who know us as well as our family. I’m sure if we are honest with ourselves, we have been in that group; that made the passing remarks or comments. I assure you most of the time those cutting remarks find their way to the individual that was the topic of conversation. Let’s us start afresh, with a new insight, a revelation if you will. That we will be swift to hear, slow to speak and even slower to judge. Knowing that the Father of Light does the same for us.

$19.99Embark on a journey through the Old and New Testament with Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson as they explore exotic and spice-laden places in search of clues.
The detective and the doctor travel back in time with the help of a Moriarty-designed time machine to investigate ten Bible destinations, unlocking clues to ten Bible mysteries. The most fascinating crime cases are those that are already solved, those that have been investigated by the police and brought to a swift, satisfying, and almost inevitable conclusion. So it is with Bible stories which the reader may consider familiar and unremarkable. But under close scrutiny these stories give up their hidden clues, their long kept secrets. Like a jewel newly polished, they sparkle and shine with a fresh, introspective light.
While traveling back in time to witness certain scenes, Holmes and Watson unravel ten different Biblical mysteries, including the following:
*The Hanging Tree: Why did Ahithophel hang himself?
*Righteous Blood is Red: Is Zechariah the son of Berekiah or Jehoiada in Matthew 23?
*You Miss, You Die: Why did David take five stones against Goliath?

Nearing Home : Life Faith And Finishing Well
$19.99But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God. -Acts 20:24 (ESV)
Growing old has been the greatest surprise of my life,” says Billy Graham, known by many as God’s Ambassador. “I would have never guessed what God had in store for me, and I know that as I am nearing home, He will not forsake me the last mile of the way.”
In Nearing Home this man of faith-now in his nineties-explores the challenges of aging while gleaning foundational truths from Scripture. Billy Graham invites us to journey with him as he considers the golden years while anticipating the hope of being reunited with his wife, Ruth, in his heavenly home that eclipses this world. “When granted many years of life, growing old in age is natural, but growing old with grace is a choice,” says the author. “Growing older with grace is possible for all who will set their hearts and minds on the Giver of grace, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Join Billy Graham as he shares the challenges of fading strength but still standing strong in his commitment to finishing life well.
“Explore with me not only the realities of life as we grow older but also the hope and fulfillment and even joy that can be ours once we learn to look at these years from God’s point of view and discover His strength to sustain us every day.” -BILLY GRAHAM

Appendices A-IAdditional Info
What does it mean to love God with all of our minds? Our culture today is in a state of crisis where intellectual virtue is concerned. Dishonesty, cheating, arrogance, laziness, cowardice–such vices are rampant in society, even among the worlds most prominent leaders. We find ourselves in an ethical vacuum, as the daily headlines of our newspapers confirm again and again. Central to the problem is the state of education. We live in a technological world that has ever greater access to new information and yet no idea what to do with it all. In this wise and winsome book, Philip Dow presents a case for the recovery of intellectual character. He explores seven key virtues–courage, carefulness, tenacity, fair-mindedness, curiosity, honesty and humility–and discusses their many benefits. The recovery of virtue, Dow argues, is not about doing the right things, but about becoming the right kind of person. The formation of intellectual character produces a way of life that demonstrates love for both God and neighbor. Dow has written an eminently practical guide to a life of intellectual virtue designed especially for parents and educators. The book concludes with seven principles for a true education, a discussion guide for university and church groups, and nine appendices that provide examples from Dows experience as a teacher and administrator. Virtuous Minds is a timely and thoughtful work for parents and pastors, teachers and students–anyone who thinks education is more about the quality of character than about the quantity of facts.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Victim Of Grace
$18.99Robin Jones Gunn reveals poignant truths from her life as well as from the lives of women in the Bible as she flips the notion that we are at the mercy of circumstances. She asks, what if God has dreams for you? What if he is accomplishing those dreams in the midst of shattered hopes?
When life doesn’t go as expected, it’s easy to feel like a victim. We look at the events that have gone wrong and view our lives as impaired. What if we could see our future as God sees it? Would our view radically change if we understood we are indeed victims rather than of happenstance?
God, the Relentless Lover, has vigorously sought you. He has instilled dreams in your heart that are grander than you can imagine. But the route to their fulfillment often is through a path you wouldn’t seek.
What if God wants to take the hopes that tug at your heart and enliven them? Are you ready to live inside the mysterious joy of being a victim of grace?

Healing Hearts : A Leading Pediatric Heart Surgeon Learns About The Journey

The woman he ran into had lost her son in this hospital years earlier. Now she was working in the very place that had been unable to save her child’s life. Dr. Nikaidoh was stunned.

What did she know that he could learn-this loving mother who seemed to have made peace with her loss? Healing Hearts shares eight mothers’ deeply honest and gut-wrenching journeys through grief-their pain, anger, attempts at solace with alcohol and bad relationships-as well as their decisions to honor their children by committing to lives of service. These stories, and that of the doctor with whom they share a unique bond, serve as testaments to God’s everlasting love and mercy, and guideposts on our own journeys of grief.

Corazon Del Lider – (Spanish)
$14.99The greatest crisis in leadership today is character. While much has been written about the need for character, this book focuses on practical areas of every person’s character that can be transformed through application of biblical principles. The author begins the book by looking at the importance of character and how character is formed but quickly transitions to chapters on specific character issues of critical importance in leadership: a servant heart, brokenness, use of the tongue, relationship to authority, forgiveness, family and finishing well, etc. In each of these areas Biblical principles are examined, illustrated, and applied.
The work is based on the author’s premise that effective Christian leaders are strong and balance in three essential areas: Character, knowledge and the skills of leadership. Of these, character is the most pivotal as well as the most difficult to develop.
The book grows out of the author’s experience in teaching developing leaders and searching for ways to work at shaping their character. The material has been tested in the lives of many leaders at different levels and different cultural backgrounds and has consistently produced transformation.
This book is a powerful tool for personal use, but itsgreater value is that it provides a starting point for pastors, mentors, educators, and parents to work with others in developing Christ-like character.
La mayor crisis del liderazgo, en la actualidad, es el caracter. Aunque se ha escrito mucho sobre la importancia del caracter, este libro se centra en las areas practicas del caracter de cada persona, las cuales, pueden ser transformadas con la aplicacion de principios biblicos. El autor inicia el libro senalando la importancia del caracter y como se forma, pero pasa rapidamente a los capitulos sobre aspectos especificos del mismo que son de vital importancia en el liderazgo: un corazon dispuesto a servir, quebrantamiento, uso de la lengua, relacion de autoridad, perdon, familia y un buen final, entre otros. Los principios biblicos se examinan, ilustran y aplican en cada una de estas areas.
El trabajo se basa en la premisa del autor de que los verdaderos lideres cristianos son fuertes y equilibrados en tres areas fundamentales: caracter, conocimiento y habilidades de liderazgo. De estas, el caracter es la mas importante, pero tambien la mas dificil de desarrollar.
Este libro constituye una herramienta de gran impacto a nivel personal, pero lo mas valioso

Lambs Agenda : Why Jesus Is Calling You To A Life Of Righteousness And Just
$19.99Is There a Divine Cure for Our Ailing Nation?
In The Lamb’s Agenda Samuel Rodriguez offers a blueprint for Christian rejuvenation, a prophetic call to orient our lives at the nexus of the cross.
Joining the Christianity of Martin Luther King Jr. and Billy Graham, The Lamb’s Agenda reveals the crucial connection between biblical social justice and spiritual righteousness. Getting back to the basics of Christianity means extending our efforts simultaneously in the vertical direction of God and the horizontal direction of our neighbors.
In this critical moment, begrudging service and empty religiosity must be replaced by the vibrancy of the Lamb’s agenda, Christ’s plan of redemption in the world. A Third Great Awakening, says Rodriguez, awaits Christians who boldly and joyfully embrace both planks of the Savior’s cross: obedience to God and service to others.

Passionate Mom : Dare To Parent In Todays World
$19.99It is a different world and we need a different kind of mom that is ready to take on that world.
What exactly is the job description of a mom? How can the job be accomplished in a culture of entitled privilege and uncensored technology? Who is doing it right? Every mother desires to do her job well. But how?
Passion. The plan begins with the one thing every mother possesses-passion. In the heart of every mother is the passionate desire to protect and provide her child with a promising future. We must capture that passion and build on it. To do so she must perceptively study our children, ponder what we perceive, pray believing there is hope, prepare for opportunities, plan patiently, overcome persecution, and persevere at all times. These are the building bricks for parenting with passion.
Dare. There was someone who so passionately loved his people that he boldly dared to build a wall to protect them and to provide a future for them. The prophet Nehemiah saved their lives, and his story has purpose for our lives. Moms must dare to do the same for their children. Save their lives by following his lead and his passionate plan.
It is pertinent to build a plan that will save this generation of children. To do so, that requires deep prayer, discipline to prepare, great patience and perseverance for a lifetime.

Natural Social Order Moses And Jesus
$26.60Natural Social Order, Moses, and Jesus demonstrates that the most realistic and practical foundations for life are not those that people choose in order to try to create what they imagine to be a better world.

Learn how much more realistic, practical, and beneficial life can be when it is oriented and adapted to God’s creation and order, instead of to man-made worlds and orders which invariably conflict with God’s creation. Learn how to live within the original context for life, as life was made to be, as part of the only world and order that gave birth to life and upon which all life depends.

Accompany Them With Singing
$28.00Thomas G. Long, one of America’s most trusted and thoughtful pulpit voices, provides a theological and cultural critique of today’s Christian funeral.
Long begins by describing how the Christian funeral developed historically, theologically, and liturgically, and then discusses recent cultural trends in funeral practices, including the rise in both cremations and memorial services. He describes the basic pattern for a funeral service, details options in funeral planning, identifies characteristics of a “good funeral,” and provides thoughtful guidance for preaching at a funeral.But Long also notes a disturbing trend toward funeral services that seem theologically right and pastorally caring, but actually depart from the primary aims of the Christian funeral constructed around the metaphor of the deceased as a saint traveling on a baptismal journey toward God, accompanied by the community of faith on “the last mile of the way.” He argues that the cultural conditions for maintaining this view are under stress and a new, less-theological and less-satisfying metaphor that focuses on the mourner has begun to erode the Christian view. He contrasts the ancient grand community drama with today’s trend toward body-less memorial services that focus primarily on the living and grief management. This is a loss for the church, he argues, and he calls for the church to reclaim the classic metaphor. Accompany Them with Singing is a practical and theologically sound resource for Protestant and Roman Catholic clergy and for funeral professionals.

Great Commission Soul Winning And Discipleship
$15.61It would appear that most churches of today have lost touch with fulfilling the Great Commission. While soul-winning is a vital part of our mission, we seem to have lost sight of biblical discipleship and holy living. Many Christians simply do not know how to share their faith, much less disciple another Christian. This book was written to give ALL Christians a step-by-step look at what fulfilling the Great Commission should look like. It is best studied in a small group setting. However, it will also benefit couples, singles, or any individual that desires to have a foundational working knowledge of the Christian faith and fulfilling the Great Commission. Steve West, A native Texan who was born in Austin. Being raised on a farm just north of Austin, I know how to appreciate hard work and honest living. As a Christian husband, father, business owner, and Sunday School teacher, I have had many opportunities to share my faith. Friends and family wanted me to put my Sunday School materials in a book format so that many others could benefit as well. My prayer for this book is to provide people with practical evangelical and discipleship tools that will bless them and glorify the Lord.

Power Of A Parents Blessing
$15.99There are seven critical times in life at which God intends for every person to receive a powerful impartation from Him of identity and destiny. In the first six God uses parents, and in the seventh He uses adult children to impart blessing back to their parents.
The primary connotation of the Hebrew word baruch, “to bless,” is “to empower to prosper.” Thus, parents who bless their child at these six critical times literally empower the child to prosper, while parents who, through lack of knowledge, fail to bless-or actually curse-may spiritually and emotionally cripple the child.
Craig Hill answers key questions for each critical time in a child’s life, including:* What is the key identity and destiny question to be answered in the heart of the child?
* When is the appropriate time to bless?
* What are potential consequences of not blessing?
* What is the role of each parent in blessing at this specific time?
* What are practical tools to use in blessing?Blessing is a custom established by God and meant to function in every family. The Power of a Parent’s Blessing gives readers the practical tools by which they can experience the transformational blessings of God for themselves and their families.

I Love Growing Older But Ill Never Grow Old
