Why I Believe In A Personal God
$14.99“My own investigations over a period of many years have given me a quiet assurance that there is a God who has given us sufficient clues in life, nature, human thought, beauty and art to satisfy the genuine inquirer that he exists, and that he has expressed himself most meaningfully in Jesus Christ. However, you may come to a different conclusion at the end of this book and that is your right as a thinking responsible person. All I can do is to invite you to join me in looking at the arguments again…”

Reason To Believe
$25.95In this book noted Oxford theologian Wiles (What is Theology?) provides a clear and accessible introduction to Christian belief. Rather than simply stating and explaining the doctrinal tenets of Christian faith, however, Wiles sets forth what seem to him appropriate responses to basic questions about Christian belief that perplex Chrsitian and non-Christions alike. Instead of providing a technical overview of Christian doctrine, he offers a short section with each chapter-printed in bold type-that discuss some of the issues that are important for reasonably assissing the truth claims of Christianity. Wiles’ free-flowing argument is not broken up with footnotes, although a bibliography at the end of the book provides suggestions for further reading for anyone interested in pursuing in more detail any of the book’s topics. An index of biblical references is also included.

Gods Plan For Man
$47.00GOD’S PLAN FOR MAN
Throughout nearly sixty years of ministry, Finis Jennings Dake passionately pursued the literal truth of Scripture. God’s Plan for Man contains the very heart of his life’s work.
Originally designed as a correspondence course, God’s Plan for Man is equivalent to a three-year Bible college program. As such, it is highly interactive, intended for serious study.
In this comprehensive volume, Dake unfolds the plans and purposes of God from the eternal past to the eternal future, exploring the details of biblical prophecy and the privileges of life in Christ. He systematically discusses the nature of the Bible, principles of biblical interpretation, the Trinity, and much more. Yet God’s Plan for Man isn’t filled with a lot of dry information appealing only to the intellect. Rather, Dake writes with a pastor’s heart. His aim is to encourage faith. The result is a balanced diet that satisfies both heart and mind.

Believing Heart : An Invitation To Story Theology
$34.00C. S. Song here invites Christians to see the whole Christian panoply through a story-centered lens. Focusing on Life, Hope, Faith, and Love, Song delves into each theme or locus (1) as it can be approached in people’s experiences or stories, (2) as it appears in related stories from other religious traditions, (3) how its central import can be expressed theologically, and (4) how it can appear in practice. Thus story becomes theology, then theology becomes story. “Central to these stories,” says Song, “is the heart that believes in spite of hardships and despair, the heart that struggles to make sense of what seems senseless in life and history.” Song’s strong narratives and engaging style will make this volume appealing in a variety of settings, especially for introductory students, clergy in search of homiletic material, church groups, and Christians open to insights from non-Western cultures.

In Listening with My Heart, Heather tells her own story and the stories of others who have inspired her, proving that with hard work, perseverance, and faith, each of us can move mountains.

She wouldn’t listen to the doctor who said she wouldn’t develop beyond third-grade abilities, or to those who said she would never dance ballet, or even speak. She did, however, hear the encouraging spirit of her family and followed the guidance of her own heart’s dreams. Struggling through her difficulties, she was sustained by every success–no matter how small–and ultimately became Miss America 1995. Though she is disabled, her incredible gifts have inspired many throughout the world, and in Listening with My Heart she at last shares her life-changing wisdom.

When Faith Is Not Enough A Print On Demand Title
$23.99How can we believe in God and develop a healthy sense of self and of our enduring value in a world so often troubling, uncertain, and dark? When Faith Is Not Enough is a creative, honest discussion of doubt and the search for meaning that avoids pat answers while offering – to readers from all walks of life – positive reasons for persisting in the quest for faith.
The first section of the book, “The Shadow of a Doubt,” takes the reality of doubt (and doubters) seriously. Clark helps readers to understand faith in a deeper way, presents a powerful case for the existence of God, offers hope for understanding the problem of God and human suffering, suggests positive ways for dealing with doubt, and affirms the excitement of embracing the adventure of life.
The second section of the book, “Searching for a Self,” is a reflection on the meaning of life. Here Clark examines our most profound attempts to find meaning, happiness, and wholeness and shows why they lead to despair, sadness, and brokenness. Revisiting important themes in the writings of Kierkegaard and others, Clark explores the attempt to create a self of abiding value and shows that it is only through faith in God that our true selves are found and our deepest desires satisfied.

$29.00Walter Brueggemann’s unique gift of joining historical-exegetical insights to penetrating observations about the traumas and joys of contemporary life — both personal and social — is here forcefully displayed. Everyone who is familiar with his work knows the power of his speech about “doxological, polemical, political, subversive, evangelical faith” and about the ways such faith is enacted in the praise of ancient Israel and in the church.

Texts Under Negotiation
$19.00In TEXTS UNDER NEGOTIATION, WALTER BRUEGGEMANN issues a passionate call for a bold restructuring of the imagination of faith in our “postmodern” context. He contends that we need not construct a full alternative world, but rather to fund – to provide the pieces, materials, and resources out of which a new world can be imagined. The place of liturgy and proclamation is “a place where people come to receive new materials, or old materials freshly voiced, which will fund, feed, nurture, nourish, legitimate, and authorize a counterimagination of the world.

Additional Info
Intellectuals Don’t Need God is for people who are not convinced by the arguments of classical, rationalistic apologetics, for people who feel that Christianity must have a broader appeal that to reason alone if it is to be persuasive to non-Christians. Alister McGrath shows convincingly that reason is only one of many possible points of contact between the non-Christian and the gospel. In today’s world, nonrational concerns — such as a sense that life lacks focus, an unconscious fear of death, a deep sense of longing for something unknown we don’t have but know we need — are much more effective points of contact for apologetics. In this book, Dr. McGrath (who is both a theologian and a scientist with a Ph.D. in microbiology) combines the clarity of a brilliant scientific mind with a deep commitment to Christ and to reaching non-Christians. Intellectuals Don’t Need God is for anyone who has questions about the validity of Christianity as well as for students, pastors, and lay leaders. Anyone who works with students and young people especially needs to read this book. As McGrath says, “apologetics is not about winning arguments — it is about bringing people to Christ.”Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
