Receiving Woman : Studies In The Psychology And Theology Of The Feminine
$35.00Add to cartThis book grew out of years of reflections on real women’s experiences. From them, Ann Ulanov states, “a common voice emerged speaking about each woman’s struggle to receive all of herself. Each was trying to find and put together different parts of herself into a whole that was personal, alive, and real to herself and to others.” This book focuses on helping women “receive themselves” by rejecting stereotypes and categories and seeking out their own individuality.

Basic Principles Of Biblical Counseling
$24.99Add to cart“The local church should and can successfully assume responsibility within its ranks for restoring troubled people to full, productive, creative lives.” “If we are to hope for success in such immense and seriously neglected responsibility, pastors need to return to the biblical model not of ministering to their people but of equipping their people to minister to each other by using their spiritual gifts.” “Congregations need to regain that wonderful sense of ‘koinonia’ fellowship and pro practice true community.”

Christian Looks At Himself A Print On Demand Title
$19.99Add to cartWhat kind of self-image should Christians have? Should they see themselves primarily as unworthy sinners before a holy God?
The biblical view, Anthony A. Hoekema argues in this brief and readable study, is that man, having been made in God’s own image, was the capstone of God’s creation. Even when he fell, God considered him of such worth that he gave up his only Son to redeem him. And in Christ, as Paul makes plain, men are made into new creatures. This does not mean that the redeemed live a life of sinless perfection; it does mean that what is most distinctive about them is the new life they have in Christ. And this new life entitles Christians to a self-image which is essentially positive.
But accepting the biblical view of their worth can be difficult for Christians burdened with feelings of guilt. How can such Christians learn to see themselves in a better light? And how can others in the Christian community – preachers, counselors, teachers, parents – help fellow members to attain the positive self-image that is essential to the Christian faith? Part Two of The Christian Looks at Himself offers concrete answers to these questions and in doing so points up the social dimension of being in Christ. As the Christian accepts himself as a creature made new in Christ, so in love he must also fully accept fellow Christians as recreated in that same Christ.
