  • Mustard Seed Of Faith

    $10.99

    Longfellow Press
    I have known Donna Warren all of my life (which is most of hers). In the early years, I found her to be very headstrong, mean, determined, and slightly vain. She often tried to take an authoritative role with everyone, which resulted in major conflict. To put it in simple terms, I didn’t like her. You see-she’s my oldest sister. About seven years ago, quite by default, my husband and I went to Galveston, Texas, to visit Donna and her husband. We had booked flights to attend her daughter’s wedding a few weeks earlier but were unable to make the trip. With two roundtrip tickets to Texas that we had to use, I had no choice but to pay her a visit. It was during this visit that, for the first time, I MET DONNA WARREN! I found her to be very self-assured, yet humble; very stern, yet compassionate; and very opinionated, yet understanding. The woman I met is truly chosen and anointed by God, and I love her. You see, she’s my friend, mentor, confidante, and prayer partner, and since our mother went on to be with God, she’s been my mother. This book, A Mustard Seed of Faith, is Donna’s testimony. Throughout her life, she has held on to her faith to make it through the trails, tribulations, and triumphs of this world. As you read each poem and inspirational writing, and look into the heart and soul of Donna Warren, I know that you will feel God’s power, wisdom, guidance, and comfort, and will be richly blessed. When you’ve been blessed, pass it on by planting another Mustard Seed of Faith, the way Donna has. -Denese Artis

  • Living The Story

    $23.50

    This instructive, practical book explores the meaning of “biblical spirituality,” a spirituality rooted in the Scriptures, in the grand story of God.
    Writing to promote genuine discipleship and an everyday sense of God’s presence, R. Paul Stevens and Michael Green show that biblical spirituality is based on down-to-earth principles meant to foster righteous living at home, at work, wherever one is. They highlight the importance of our being in relationship with the Triune God and discuss how we can be worshipers of Abba God, disciples of Jesus, and temples of the Holy Spirit. The book proceeds through the Old and New Testaments, engaging readers with the discoveries and struggles of people of faith from Adam and Eve to those gathered around the Lamb in the new Jerusalem. Stevens and Green focus throughout on how we can truly live the Word of God so that our own stories become part of God’s great story of love.

    Filled with biblical wisdom and a pleasure to read, “Living the Story” is a winsome invitation to follow God wholeheartedly in every dimension of life.

  • Progressive Christians Speak

  • Apostles Doctrine : The Foundation Of The Christian Faith

    $15.49

    Are you a Christian? Do you believe the Bible? If you answered, “yes” to both questions, try answering the following: What makes Christianity different from other religions? What are the foundational teachings of the Bible? Which teaching sets Christianity apart from all other religions? The Apostle Paul instructed us to study to show ourselves approved of God (2 Timothy 2:15), and Peter said we should always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks us for a reason for the hope that is in us (1 Peter 3:15). Establishing a firm foundation of faith is essential to our growth and survival in these last days. It is vital that new believers in Jesus know what they believe and why they believe it. The Apostles’ Doctrine will guide new believers as they lay a firm foundation upon which they will be able to build a solid structure for their new life in Christ. The Apostles’ Doctrine will challenge more seasoned Christians to strengthen their foundation of faith as they rediscover the basic truths of God’s Word. This study will refresh their understanding of the faith that is within them.

  • Source : Creation Eternal Design Or Infinite Accident

    $19.95

    (When placing your order, please mention that this is a Lightining Source book.)

    A number of years ago, John Clayton, a second-generation atheist and respected scientist and teacher, set out to disprove the Bible from a scientific point of view. Instead, his six-year study brought him to a profound faith in the God of the Bible.
    Now, in this highly informative and easy to understand book, John Clayton and Nils Jansma – a geotechnical engineer and geologist – present convincing evidence that the Bible and the facts of science agree. As the public moves away from a belief in God as Creator of our heaven and earth, it becomes imperative that all believers be well informed on this vital subject. This book will become a resource you will use again and again.

  • Biology Through The Eyes Of Faith

    $19.99

    Newly Revised
    The Council of Christian Colleges and Universities Series

    Stressing the biblical message of stewardship, biologist Richard T. Wright celebrates the study of God’s creation and examines the interaction of the life sciences with society in medicine, genetics, and the environment. The author brings a biblical perspective to theories on origins, contrasting creationism, intelligent design, and evolution. Highlighting the unique nature of biology and its interaction with Christian thought, Wright demonstrates that Christian stewardship can be the key to a sustainable future.

    This comprehensive work, one of a series cosponsored by the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities, addresses the needs of the Christian student of biology to align science and faith. It demonstrates that the study of biology penetrates to the core of human existence and has much to contribute to the construction of a consistent Christian worldview.

  • Washing Of The Word

    $22.99

    “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, for He is faithful that promised.” (Hebrews 10:23) Many believers are familiar with the idea of confession of sins. Howerver, this biblical word “profession” or ” confession” really means to say the same thing as-it is not only a confession on sins, but also a confession of faith. By using The Washing of the Word as a daily discipline, believers can “say the same thing as” God’s Word. This book is a handbook, a tool, to be used as an aid in speaking the Scriptures. Balanced and sound confessions of living trust and faith are excerpted from every book of the Bible. As we accept the Word of God as the ruling standard of our lives, hearts-and mouths-we will experience the reality of “the washing of the Word.”

  • Faith Victorious : Finding Strength And Hope From Hebrews 11

    $22.99

    There’s hardly a topic more important than faith. And no portion of Scripture demonstrates the vitality of faith better than Hebrews 11. “This chapter is to faith what the thirteenth chapter of 1 Corinthians is to love,” writes Richard Phillips. In this study of Hebrews 11 we find answers to some of our most pressing questions: What is faith? How do we get faith? What are its benefits? How does faith respond to life’s trials? We also enter the fascinating world of Old Testament men and women whose vision of a sure hope beyond their struggles led them to acts of great courage. Like the first audience of the Book of Hebrews, the church today faces mounting opposition – and the danger of falling away from the truth.

  • Questions Of Faith For Inquiring Believers

    $12.95

    How do we reconcile basic Christian theology with modern life? In today’s church, more people are apt to come to church spiritually hungry, but theologically uninformed. And, Robert Cueni notes, many are no longer content with being told, “Memorize this list of what Christians believe. There will be a test.” This book addresses these concerns by posing broad philosophical questions and then presenting open-ended and non-technical introductions to many core Christian ideas such as atonement, ecclesiology, and prayer. It’s an excellent resource for new member classes, adult Sunday school curriculum, a sermon series, or for personal investigation into understanding the Bible and the faith.

    Among the provocative questions Cueni explores are:
    * Why Do Good People Do Bad Things?
    * How Do We Live With Our Differences?
    * What’s Important About Going To Church?
    * Must Religion And Science Conflict?
    * If Christ Is The Answer, What Is The Question?

  • Tree Of All Hearts

    $15.00

    This collection of original contemporary parables and stories written by the authors for readers and hearers is presented with powerful wisdom and truths through the telling of stories.

    Jesus was the master storyteller, and among his best-loved and most remembered words are the parables. Stories are essential for describing the Christian experience. The power of parables and stories lies in their ability to address matters of the heart in ways akin to poetry. As an aid to preaching and teaching, parables provide powerful windows to truths that can be grasped by the hearer on many levels.

    The collection of parables and stories in this book addresses common themes of the Christian life: faith, fear, discipleship, discipline, death, life, salvation, and hope. Some are parables in the strict sense of the term; others are fables and genre stories. Like any good story, each will speak to the listeners at whatever level of readiness and understanding they bring to the story.

    Each story includes corresponding Bible passages and a list of study questions for pondering various aspects of the story, either in personal reflection or group study.

  • Genetic Turning Points A Print On Demand Title

    $38.99

    360 Pages

    Additional Info
    Human genetic intervention could be considered a microcosm of the larger field of bioethics. According to James Peterson, “it raises almost all the basic issues addressed in a standard bioethics course, from informed consent to the goals of medicine.” Peterson argues that it is imperative to view human genetic intervention from an ethical framework, particularly as the technology in that intervention advances at an exponential rate.

    Peterson’s goal in Genetic Turning Points was to tie together some of the various questions related to human genetic intervention (better known, perhaps, as genetic manipulation or genetic engineering). He begins with a look at medical technology and moves on to major issues including genetic research, genetic testing, genetic drugs, and genetic surgery (physical manipulation of human genes in the body). The issues are raised in a progressive approach. Genetic research is the foundation for genetic testing and genetic drugs, thus issues related to genetic research are looked at first, and then issues related to genetic testing and drugs. Since genetic surgery techniques are still being perfected, and are not as available as the other technologies, Peterson looks at this vital issue last.

    Christians, according to LeRoy Waters, have tended to view human genetics from one of two positions (not usually both): cosmic theology and casuistic analysis. Cosmic theology simply means looking at the grand scheme of God’s plan for humanity; casuistic analysis is that which addresses the questions of practice. Peterson hopes to bring the two positions together in a cogent and effective manner. He feels that one’s understanding of God’s plan for humanity (our purpose) shapes the concrete decisions of life (the practice). Ideally, Christians should be aware of both how purpose shapes practice and how practice questions purpose. Thus, Peterson sees the medical and ethical issues as eminently practical, but defined and shaped by one’s metaphysical beliefs.

    Genetic Turning Points is laid out in a progressive manner, but topics can stand on their own. Chapters are generally short and the indexes and cross-references allow one to find a particular topic quickly and easily. Since there are fifteen chapters, the book easily lends itself to undergraduate or postgraduate study (one chapter a week), but is not solely for students. It is also for professionals (doctors, clergy, etc.) and for educated lay people. Its information is timely and it
