You may not be able to put this book down once you start it but hang in there and you will feel the thrill of victory of Jesus over the devil in Eve’s life.

Broad Place : An Autobiography
$29.00Add to cartJurgen Moltmann’s life and work have marked the history of theology after the Second World War in Europe and North America like no other. He is the most widely read, quoted, and translated theologian of our time. Now, after celebrating his eightieth birthday, he looks back on a life engaged in and forging a Christian response to the tumult and opportunities of our age. In his autobiography Moltmann tells his engaging and searching life story, from his Hamburg youth in an unconventional parental home up to the “incompleteness” of the present moment. Yet his narrative also sheds light on the creative arc of Moltmann’s work, on the journey of his own theological development from its beginnings after World War II through the beginnings of political theology and, most phenomenally, the advent of the theology of hope.
A wide-ranging document alert to the deeper currents of his time and ours, Moltmann’s work is also an engrossing reconsideration of a life full of intense experience and new beginnings.

Heaven In Ordinary
$31.99Add to cartGeorge Herbert (1593-1633) is one of English spirituality’s most treasured voices and, with his contemporaries Lancelot Andrewes Izaak Walton and Nicholas Ferrar, he epitomises the best of the 17th century Anglican tradition – learned, holy and self-effacing. Before settling down as a country parish priest – a calling that was cut short by his early death aged 39 – he was a complex character who led a varied life in politics and academia. His inner tensions resulted in memorable writing and a rich spirituality. Here, Philip Sheldrake explores themes in Herbert’s work that stand out as most important: his deep biblical and liturgical roots, his Christ-centred spirituality, his emphasis on the importance of the everyday, his strong sense of place, his understanding of discipleship, his approach to prayer, and, his spirituality of service. Richly illustrated with excerpts from his poetry, prose and letters, this volume offers a comprehensive study guide to one of the most loved poetic voices.

Broken Beads On My Moccasins
$15.49Add to cartIf the stars don’t shine, God is the guiding light. If the ocean fails to come home to the shore, God has a plan. If the sun ceases to rise and fall, God’s love prevails.

Through all the chaos and confusion of life, His promise of “I will never leave you or forsake you” holds true. This book is a collection of creative writings, cartoons, and inspirational insights that journeys the author’s life from toddler to present. The prevailing theme is that God is in control and showers His children with daily encouragements to love one another as He has loved us.
