A series of insightful and Bible-centered sermons on great (and not so great) women of the Bible from the mind and pen of one of America’s great preachers. Of this series Macartney wrote: “Among the subjects of the sermons in this volume is one of the bad women of the Bible, for no series on women of the Bible would be complete without a sermon on such a character as Delilah, the temptress of Samson.“To preach on these biblical women is to illustrate life in its deepest reality – sometimes base, ignoble, comtemptible and wicked, but often lofty, noble, godlike, and glorious. Like the great men of the Bible, too, the great women of the Bible afford the preacher an unsurpassed opportunity to press home upon the people the claims of Christ as Friend and Redeemer.”
In this series of thirteen sermons, Macartney uses his “sanctified imagination” and bibilcal knowledge to glean lessons from the lives of Ruth, Esther, Rahab, Lot’s Wife, Martha and Mary, Delilah, Abigail, Rachel, Rebekah, The Samaritan Woman, The Shunammite, The Woman with the Issue of Blood, and The Faithful Woman of Proverbs 31.

Living With Aids
$12.95Add to cart“Terry Boyd has touched theological depths and clear biblical understanding in his book, Living With AIDS: One Christian’s Struggle. A victim of the dread pandemic … Boyd shares the practical reality of his intimate experiences with the illness, his daily struggles to face death, his relationships with others whom he loves, both inside and outside the church, and who risk sharing their love with him in return. His words are not only informative, but inspire any reader to make direct application of faith perspectives no matter how severe, untimely, or unpredicated.
“His refusal to accept morbidity for whatever days remain for him call us to a commitment to God’s purposes — one day at a time. I could not put the book down. More importantly, it will never release me.”
Leontine T. C. Kelly
President, AIDS National Interfaith Network
Bishop (Retired), San Francisco Area United Methodist Church“Terry Boyd’s writings during the last year of his life represent the faith journey of a man who has no illusions. He is going to die and he knows it…. Herein you will read about his spiritual journey, the milestones along the way, the importance of prayer, his ability to rely on God and experience God’s presence. Terry also writes about the fear, bigotry, isolation, and financial hardships which too often follow a diagnosis of AIDS and which persons of faith are called to address.
“Faith is a rod by which we measure life. When I visit Terry I take a ladder. Thanks for the soul’s embrace, Terry: for that ‘love that flows between two spirits like water in a stream. ‘ “

They Found The Secret
$19.99Add to cart“The exchanged life.” Hudson Taylor first used the term to describe what it means to know Christ as our sufficiency in all things. Taylor is but one of the many Christian luminaries who have discovered Christ as the secret to abundant living. John Bunyan, Andrew Murray, Amy Carmichael, Oswald Chambers, Charles Finney-behind the varied lives and personalities of these and other men and women lies a common theme, a pattern that leads from desperation to the abundant life Jesus promised. From their stories, we too can find the path to deeper faith and a more vital relationship with God. In They Found the Secret, Raymond Edman presents the lives of twenty well-known and little-known Christians. “The details of their experience of the crisis of the deeper life are delightfully different,” Edman writes, “yet their testimony to the reality of the joy and power of the Spirit-filled life is unanimous . . . It is [the Lord] who satisfies the longing soul. He is the secret of the exchanged life!”
