Why Jesus Turned Water Into Wine And Still Does
$11.95John, the writer of the gospel of John, writes as though he were a reporter in that he uses four of the five Ws (when, what, where, and who) that journalists are taught to use in their articles. However, he does not tell us why, which is the missing W.

Why did Jesus get involved?
Why did the wedding happen on the third day?
Why was this wedding special as to warrant Jesus’s involvement?
Why in Cana of Galilee, of all places?

How We Love Expanded Edition (Expanded)
$18.00Are you tired of arguing with your spouse over the same old issues? Do you dream of a marriage with less conflict and more intimacy? Are you struggling under a load of resentment?
The key to creating a deeper bond in your marriage
may lie buried in your childhood.Your early life experiences create an “intimacy imprint”-an underlying blueprint that shapes your behavior, beliefs, and expectations of all future relationships, especially your marriage. In How We Love, relationship experts Milan and Kay Yerkovich help you pinpoint the reason your marriage is struggling-and they reveal exactly what you can do about it.
Drawing on the powerful tool of attachment theory, the Yerkoviches identify four types of injured imprints that combine in marriage to trap couples in a repetitive dance of pain. As you discover how your relationship has been guided by these imprints, you’ll gain the insights you need to stop stepping on each other’s toes and instead allow yourselves to be swept along by the music of a richer, deeper relationship.

Fierce Love : One Womans Courageous Journey To Save Her Marriage
$16.99Love is easy to give when you are getting it back. Are we still called to God’s plan of how to love when we are getting none in return? Shauna Shanks’s brave journey through obedience reveals the outcome of when we dare to follow God’s ludicrous outline for love as described in 1 Corinthians 13.
Wrecked with news of her husband’s affair and his request for a divorce, Shauna finds herself urgently faced with a decision. Does she give up and divorce her husband and move on, or does she try to fight for her marriage? The former choice seems to contradict God’s plan for how to love, such as “love never gives up,” “love is patient,” and “love is kind.”
Taking God at His word and assuming the love chapter was really meant to be followed literally word by word, she not only finds herself falling in love with her spouse again, but also falling in love with Jesus, which changes everything.
First Corinthians 13 presents an audacious, illogical, and irrational context of how to love, meant to be applied to every marital context not just the fairytale marriage. If God’s instructions seem illogical and audacious, you might just expect the same kind of results in return!
This book is not air-brushed. It was written in the midst of the author’s deepest trauma, and she purposefully did not edit out her mistakes and failures during that season. This book will resonate with women who do not feel like the picture-perfect Christian woman with the fairytale life and marriage.
A Fierce Love is the story of a train wreck and reaching out to God not in the calm but in the chaos and finding hope for the future.

Its His Show
$12.99It’s His Show is about a difficult and obviously serious subject: marital infidelity and patterns of the heart that lead to vulnerability and breakdown. But, it’s about so much more.
One extraordinary couple shares the story of their transformed hearts through the most devastating, yet incredible, season in their lives. No matter the details of your circumstances, God offers hope and healing. When the world screams in your ear to give up, when your human judgment says to throw in the towel, when it doesn’t make sense to press on, remember this: God can do what man says can’t be done.
The authors talk with brutal honesty and wry humor about the failure of Christian marriages in America. What happened when infidelity entered their marriage was a common story that plays out in home after home, every day, regardless of a couple’s faith. When things get hard, you cut your losses and start over, right? Yet, their story begins where most such tragedies end.
Written from Colleen s perspective with revealing insights from Chris, IT’S HIS SHOW chronicles with painful honesty and wry humor the path that led the McKains to the darkest period of their lives, and the amazing and majestic power of God that brought them through it–together.
This is not a tell-all book. Nor is it just a cautionary tale, a feel-good story, a counseling process, nor an easy read. This is tough stuff, a captivating and intense read, intertwined with a powerful message of hope. Regardless of where you are in your marriage, IT S HIS SHOW may just reveal to you some truths about your own foundation, or point you in the direction of health, of restoration, of the fullness and richness everyone hopes for in their relationship, not just with each other, but with God Himself. A mesmerizing read.

1 Plus One Equals One
$14.99WHY ANOTHER MARRIAGE BOOK? There was need for a book with short, practical chapters with assignments and suggested prayers so that people could read for a little while and grab hold of something that they could apply to their marriage right away. The chapters needed to be short enough that husband and wife could read it together without too much inconvenience, enjoy the time together, and even discuss the content of the chapters. The fact that the lessons are so practical, and, therefore, immediately applicable, is huge. The assignments give direction as to the application. Then the icing on the cake: for the husband and wife to pray out loud what is suggested at the end of each chapter, brings a real sense of honesty before each other, and before the Lord.

Cherish : The One Word That Changes Everything For Your Marriage
$26.99“Most marriages survive by gritting teeth and holding on. But marriages can and will not only survive but thrive when husbands and wives learn to cherish one another.”
Those are the powerful words of bestselling author Gary Thomas in his newest book-Cherish. And in a world desperate for marriage redemption, it is needed now more than ever.
Thomas shows that although there are a countless number of marriages consisting of two people just going through the motions, there are real ways this pattern can be reversed: when husbands and wives learn to cherish one another in proven, loving, and everyday actions and words.
Through personal stories and real world examples, Thomas proves what husbands and wives can begin doing today to turn their marriage around-even a marriage marred by neglect and disrespect.
So how do you cherish your spouse? Thomas will show you how going out of your way to notice them, appreciate them, honor them, encourage them, and hold them close to your heart will bring hope, light, and life into your marriage.

Language Of Love
$9.99It is very interesting to see people fall in love and then later fall out of love. Sometimes they fall out of love with the same intensity that they fell into love. Love is very powerful; it is a very strong feeling.
Love is shown or expressed both in the presence and the absence of someone. If you love your wife, tell her, help her in the kitchen and communicate with her. Tell her what you go through at work, church and family meetings.
Everybody wants to learn the language of love. You want to be able to communicate with the language of love. Different people respond differently at various levels to all of these. For some people, giving gifts is number one expression of love for them. For others, affirmation is number one. For still others, acts of service is number one. Although all these are expressions of love, different people respond differently.

For Better Or For Kids
$16.99The transition from “married” to “married with children” can be tough. Before they know it, a once youthful and energetic married couple finds themselves in a minivan loaded with noisy kids and littered with Cheerios, crusty Sippy cups, banana peels, and missing library books. Remember those vows you took at the altar? As much as you love your children and work hard to nurture and train them for the future, the challenges that come with parenthood can make the “for better or for worse” promise a hard one to honor. For Better or For Kids shows how couples can keep their love alive even when kids come along.
Patrick and Ruth have been married for more than sixteen years, have four children, and have served in local church ministry for the past fourteen years. As Patrick has counseled couples who are preparing for marriage, who are working to strengthen their marriage, or who are desperately trying to save their marriage, he frequently reminds them that, in Christ, there is hope for this season in life. For Better or For Kids is about remembering that even when you feel worn out, over-extended, and neglected, you promised to be a team. It is about making a vow to love your spouse with kids in the house. By God’s grace, couples can have a loving and intimate marriage regardless of the season.

From This Day Forward
$28.00Weddings have become a billion-dollar industry, with the average cost of a wedding estimated at $30,000. Taking into account dramatic shifts in attitudes toward marriage in recent years, many pastors are confused and frustrated about their role. This book offers a foundational understanding of marriage for today’s North American church. Exploring current sociological analyses of marriage and the history of Christian marriage rites, Kimberly Bracken Long suggests that the church rethink its involvement in weddings and offers a distinctively Christian understanding of marriage. Today’s church, Long contends, needs to reinterpret classic biblical metaphors and expand the range of scriptural sources that inform our understanding of marriage. Long also looks closely at each element of the wedding service and what makes a marriage liturgy faithful, inclusive, and sensitive to pastoral concerns. She provides practical suggestions for music and Scripture during wedding services as well as guidance on how to respond faithfully to those who are divorced or divorcing. Packed with constructive pastoral wisdom, From This Day Forward-Rethinking the Christian Wedding delivers a practical theology of marriage that will be of help to clergy, seminarians, and others interested in this topic.

Full Circle : Full Circle
$28.95How is one supposed to cope with being left a widow after fifty plus years of marriage to a wonderful man? That was the question in Louise’s mind in the days following her husband’s passing.
During the several years of his prolonged illness, Ray had, as best he could, tried to prepare his wife to be self-sufficient. So, after she proved she could handle things on her own, Louise decided she could carry on and decided she would never remarry. She had one cat for companionship and that was sufficient. Thoughts of getting a dog for added security quickly disappeared; dogs require way too much care.
Imagine the shock when this “self-sufficient” lady found herself the owner of a little red dog with soft brown eyes. Then, as if that were not enough, a good friend from the past suddenly appears in her life, a man she had known for over forty years.
Read about the inspiring ways in which Jim and Louise reconnected after so many years and how a little dog “helped” get them together. You will be blessed by their love, faith, and commitment to each other and their ministry. This is a testimony of how a second marriage brought fulfillment and happiness to a couple and how their adult children quickly became a unit.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Same Sex Marriage
$16.00Obergefell v. Hodges was a wonderful decision — in that it’s now forcing every Christian to decide whether their allegiance is to the Supreme Court or to the Supreme Being. In every other way, it was terrible.
Same-Sex Mirage starts with the fundamentals of marriage and then traces the effects of this foundational institution in every area of life. Is marriage a private matter — an agreement before God alone? Or is it public — a matter for legislation? Obergefell was a disaster for our nation. And, as with every disaster, the biggest benefit is in understanding how we Christians ignored all warnings and let it happen.
