Jesus Heals The Brokenhearted
$31.23The author and her husband often visited their international relatives to share the good news of how the Lord Jesus Christ blessed their family in a special way. Then, like a lightning bolt, the news struck them of the tragic death of their son, David. He was in the prime of his life and the father of a young family. Why? Why would their loving God do this to them?

Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing. (2 Timothy 4:7-8 NKJV) In the writer’s family, David was the first in the race to reach the finish line.

Beggars Cry
$16.86Rev. Peggy Tinnes tells of the miracles that God brought about in her travels as an evangelist and missionary. She was commissioned by God to go into the world and preach and teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Many of her trips were in the mountains of many countries. Although she raised a family of six children during this time, her husband Fred Tinnes was her keeper of the home while she was away. She has been through many sicknesses and has seen the healing hand of God in her life. The Lord gives understanding of Himself to all who believe in His name. You can believe that what God has done for and through Peggy, He will also do for you. Jesus sets us free and commissions us to go out into the world. In Matthew 28:19 (Amplified), Jesus says, “Go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

Majuba House : The House Of Majesty
$27.48Majuba House is the story of a past era that has relevance in the new millennium. It is a timeless message of hope for people who are born into unusual circumstances and raised amid times of uncertainty, strife, or war. The setting is a tiny village in Suffolk on the east coast of England, and covers the period from 1934 through the war until 1946 when the author and thousands of GI brides sailed to America. The book follows the author’s progress through the happy, innocent early years as a foster child, through the tumultuous teen years and into an abrupt adulthood. It recounts the national, family, and personal turmoil that began with the outbreak of war, and shows God’s merciful guidance in the search for eternal truth and everlasting peace. The unique house where love abounded symbolizes life as it should be. It exemplifies dignity, grace, and strength: qualities that endure in an ever-changing world. It symbolizes in an earthly way how God’s heavenly mantle of security covers us, guides us, and protects us long before our spirits are awakened to the realization of His protective love and salvation.

Called Chosen And Faithful
$20.61Out of her own experiences as the wife of a pastor, Betty Norcross writes this book to encourage others in ministry. However, this book’s relevance doesn’t stop with the clergy and their families. It can have an impact on anyone who loves the Lord and has a desire to work for Him. Betty tells of her reluctance to begin serving as a pastor’s wife and how she struggled with the many difficulties and discouragements she encountered in this new vocation. Crises occurred so regularly that she began to consider them a vocational hazard in the work of the Church. She takes you through some of her crises, a few of them of earth-shattering proportions, and others not much more than mild tremors. But through it all, Betty relates the faithfulness of the One who called her to the work. Her habit of talking to the Lord about everything on a regular basis proved to be the source of strength she needed for the task. This book will encourage you to be consistent in your daily devotional time. Like Betty, you can discover your Lord is interested in talking with you about all of those trivial, insignificant events in your life as well as the blockbuster traumas

Making Of A Christian Psychiatrist
$21.86Many people, both physicians and laypersons, view psychiatry, a specialty of medicine, as anywhere from mysterious to menacing. Some of the strongest reactions come from Bible-based Christian people. Most of the people with mental or emotional problems that I saw in Alaska, in my nineteen years (19501969) as a medical missionary, needed more expert professional help than I was capable of giving them. This led to my undeniable attraction to psychiatric training after the Alaska years. Through all my medical years, I have inquired about every patient’s personal faith in God, if any, and what part it played in his or her life. Sometimes either the presence or absence of faith contributed to their mental and emotional state. My years as a primary care physician also served me well in evaluating somatic problems. Every believer in Jesus Christ as Savior is equipped to be a more complete person in this life, as well as a possessor of eternal life. I am equally convinced that any physician is a more adequately equipped professional when he or she trusts the Savior.

Welcome Silence : My Triumph Over Schizophrenia (Revised)
$31.18This is the amazing true story of one woman’s journey deep into mental illness and her return to sanity — and to a successful life and career. Carol North was diagnosed with schizophrenia in college. The story of her life is traced from her early life in a middle class small-town family in the Midwest. For many years, Carol struggled against overwhelming odds to achieve in school in spite of her illness and was finally admitted to medical school to pursue her hopes and dreams of becoming a doctor. In medical school, however, she slid further into psychosis and finally succumbed the inexorable incapacitation so often characteristic of the illness. Carol was fortunate enough, however, to find a skilled psychiatrist who understood her dedication to becoming a physician and who worked with her to stay well enough to remain in school. When all hope seemed lost, her doctor enrolled her in an experimental dialysis program, similar to the treatment given to patients with kidney failure. With this treatment, her illness went away and she no longer required medication for it.
This engrossing and ultimately triumphant story of courageous struggle against mental illness will inspire anyone who has ever had to battle for achievement against overwhelming odds. After recovering from her illness, Carol returned to school and received her medical degree from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri in 1983. She then completed her internship and residency at Barnes Hospital/Washington University, and subsequently obtained a masters degree in psychiatric epidemiology (the study of psychiatric disorders in populations) while simultaneously pursuing a NIMH fellowship in psychiatric epidemiology at Washington University.

Dare To Believe
$16.86Here is a story of one man’s battle with Parkinson’s Disease, and his victory over that pain. In this goal, Mark Sharp has been an inspiration as an author. He relays the immense struggles and life changes that took place for him and his family, and in the end we feel joy at his prognosis.
Here too, is a story of a Christian sharing his view of the gospel. If you are looking for guidance in this area, this is the book for you. I am certain that it will inspire many. However, if you are not interested in Mark’s view of the power of God and the Christian viewpoint, I suggest that this is not a book for you. It could be argued that the book is pure propaganda, but since it portrays the events of this man’s life, it is also a miraculous story.
The book is short but concise and to the point. The story is well written and the points of argument are well documented and introduced. While I do not agree with most of the content, the purpose of the author is fulfilled and I applaud him.
The basic idea of the book is comparing life with a game. There are rules to follow if you want to win and Mark spells out many of them and leads the reader to discover the rest on their own journey, and find their own coach waiting for them on the field. While my own coaches told me that winning is not important – it is how you play the game that counts, Mark’s coach told him that winning is the most important, and that is the fun of the game. Different philosophies and different outlooks on life, lead to different appreciations for this title. Take it as you will. Either way, the joyous result of victory over a disease is a reason worth reading this one.

William Bridge : The Puritan Of The Congretational Way
$34.36The quest for a biography of William Bridge began after this author purchased the first two volumes of The Works of William Bridge, printed in 1649 in London. These were printed twenty-one years before the death of this great Congregational Puritan preacher. Upon beginning the search for biographical material, a startling discovery was made. Only a few pages were in any one place on the life of this illustrious stalwart of Christ. Thus the search began in an attempt to fill in as many gaps as could be supplied from the meager sources. There should be no condemnation of a man who faithfully and biblically followed the Lord. “The circumstances of the times in which he lived” were a part of the world in which God had placed William Bridge. He occupied a prominent place in the controversies of the day, which were disruptive to the status quo of the established church and the state. However, such a brave man should not be left buried in obscurity. John Owen, the great Puritan theologian, highly respected Bridge. They worked together on various projects. It is the hope of this author that some progress has been made in giving to the public a larger picture of William Bridge.

Considered the master of the two-minute offense and late-game comeback, Staubach eventually earned a spot in the Cowboys’ illustrious Ring of Honor and, ultimately in 1985, the Pro Football Hall of Fame.If ever there was a perfect meshing of franchise, coach, and on-field leader, it was the silver-white-and-blue Cowboys of the seventies with Tom Landry strolling the sidelines in his trademark fedora and the unflappable Staubach barking signals. He led the NFL in passing five times, and when he retired at age thirty-seven he departed the game in possession of the highest quarterback rating of all time. After his retirement from football, he pretty much left the game behind, forsaking a shot at coaching or television commentary to focus his energies on the corporate world as chairman and CEO of the Staubach Company, a diversified commercial real estate company.Roger Staubach: Captain America is an oral history of Staubach’s life, times, and career. It is told in the words of dozens of former teammates and opponents, friends, business associates, civic leaders, acquaintances, and others who have known him over the years. Staubach turned sixty in 2002, and this book offers a touching and telling testimonial to a true American hero and role model.

Original Memoirs Of Charles G Finney
$23.99The Memoirs of Charles G. Finney, the life record of the great American evangelist of the nineteenth century, became a treasured resource upon its publication in 1876, a year after Finney’s death. But what wasn’t known is that the original editor, Finney’s friend James Harris Fairchild, had edited or omitted what seemed to him outrageous passages, exaggerated language, controversial statements, and repetitions. All subsequent editions had been based on Fairlchild’s work. The discovery of long-forgotten manuscripts a century later led to the publication of “the Complete Restored Text.” This volume, edited by Garth M. Rosell and Richard A. G. Dupuis and published by Zondervan in 1989, made the Memoirs available for the first time in complete form. Portions that had been deleted or changed by Fairchild were restored so as to make Finney’s significant legacy to church history more accurate and more enriching. The 1989 edition included various editorial schemata that have held great value for historians and other scholars. This edition makes the complete Memoirs available to general readers for the first time. Here is the Complete and Restored Text without the editorial schemata and other academic features. This edition enables readers to fully appreciate the firsthand accounts of Charles G. Finney’s remarkable revivals and career in a way never before available. Readers who have treasured the Memoirs for the past century and a quarter now have the complete story in a manageable form for the first time.

Never Give In
$19.99Winston Churchill was one of the most extraordinary leaders of the twentieth century. What was it that enabled him to stand so steadfastly when all those around him seemed to turn back in fear? What was it that enabled him to inspire whole nations to endure the unendurable and to achieve the unachievable when all those around him had already surrendered all hope? This remarkable new study of Churchill’s leadership skill answers these questions and more. The result is an account that is as inspiring today as it was more than half a century ago when the great man’ shadow fell large across the world stage. According to Henry Kissinger, Our age finds it difficult to come to grips with Churchill. The political leaders with whom we are familiar generally aspire to be superstars rather than heroes. The distinction is crucial. Superstars strive for approbation; heroes walk alone. Superstars crave consensus; heroes define themselves by the…future they see it as their risk to bring about. Superstars seek success in a technique for eliciting support; heroes pursue success as the outgrowth of their inner values. Winston Churchill was a hero.
