When God Became Apparent
$20.61When a parent dies during a child’s growing-up years, the change is monumental. An alternate shaping of life and self begins; an influence is lost; the creation of memories is halted. Living with the loss from that point on means living a new way of life. Life is so significantly shaped by the loss that other forces often pale by comparison. The reader will often be moved to tears by the heartfelt insights of adults who experienced the early death of a parent-a parent that cannot be present at graduations, weddings, births, and everyday conversations-a parent that is not available to give advice or be a grandparent. Woven throughout this very personal book are Dr. Darren Daugherty’s own insights from the early loss of his father and the recognition of God’s grace. Darren’s book will help readers to understand this loss and those who live with it. It also offers hope to anyone connected to the early loss of a parent. Included at the end of each chapter are suggestions for surviving parents who desire to help their children through the loss.

Creation Unveiled
$29.98A concerned young activist proposes a way out of our current ecological predicament.But, the environmental movement is not going to like either of his two policy recommendations: repent of all your sins, and then accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. But Daniel Salomon, a champion of defending unpopular opinions, pleads with the environmental and animal movements to help them come to the realization that these two policy recommendations may be the only way out of planetary annihilation. Following in the tradition of Christian environmentalism, Creation Unveiled opens up the unique perspectives of Christian anthropologist Rene Girard. It applies his ideas and perspectives to the environmental and animal movements, with the goal of building the case that the God of the Bible is a very good and a very green God.

Upside Down Marriage

But this is one game we do not want to be sitting in the stands watching others play the game. We do not want to be on the sidelines cheering for our team or for our families. This is one game, one adventure we want to come away with sweat on our brow, dirt on our pants, soreness in our muscles, and a heart filled with excitement. We do not want to be left behind while other couples move ahead in their marriages. Marriage is the adventure of a lifetime. The game of all games. The sport of all sports. A healthy marriage, a healthy home is worth the price. It is worth the hard work. It is worth the sweat equity. It is one game we should not mind getting banged up and bruised. It is one game in which we do not want to miss the practices. We will become better husbands due to the hard work and the practicing.

Against Christianity

4. Against Ethics
5. For Constantine
NotesAdditional Info
How could a conservative Christian, an ordained minister with a beard, no less be against not only Christianity, but theology, sacraments, and ethics as well? Yet that is the stance Peter Leithart takes in this provocative “theological bricolage.”Seeking to rethink evangelical notions of culture, church, and state, Leithart offers a series of short essays, aphorisms, and parables that challenge the current dichotomies that govern both Christian and non-Christian thinking about church and state, the secular and the religious.
But his argument isn’t limited to being merely “against.” Leithart reveals a much larger vision of Christian society, defined by the stories, symbols, rituals, and rules of a renewed community, the city of God.

Then God Created In Laws
$16.86Bob and his wife Kay have celebrated fifty years of marriage, and are blessed with five children, twelve grandchildren, and a great-granddaughter. The chapters in this book reflect many of the experiences and interpersonal relationships with in-laws during these fifty years. Both families had Christians and non-Christians, difficulties, misunderstandings, parents that needed to be cared for in old age, differences in family child-rearing practices, and brother and sister-in-law problems, along with the pressures of trying to maintain a Christian testimony through it all. Since their marriage, Bob and Kay have been active in church. Bob has been teaching in Sunday school, children’s church, and a Bible institute. His experience includes serving as a deacon and being involved in many ministries of the church. A particular concern of his has been encouraging young couples in their Christian growth. Bob is a graduate of the United States Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, Long Island, New York, where he majored in marine mechanical engineering. After serving as a marine engineer aboard several ships and traveling to many countries, he was involved in engineering of steam production systems. In 1983 he formed the Robert L. Bruce Company as an engineering consulting firm. The impetus for this book began several years ago as a request for Bob to speak at a grandparent day where his grandchildren attended. Since that beginning, he has interviewed and conducted surveys with in-laws of all ages, defining the concerns that needed to be addressed. Teaching and counseling young couples confirmed the need for scriptural instruction beginning before the marriage right through the latter days of grandparenting. Bob has reviewed the basics of this book with capable Christian people from many walks of life for their comments and input to help make it scripturally applicable to a broad spectrum of Christians.

Best-selling author and family expert Joe White writes a sobering book for this most serious of times. Children are being exposed to dangers outside the home that most parents are unaware of until they accidentally find some shred of evidence-a cigarette butt, a half-smoked joint, or an obscene letter from an unknown lover. Kids are feeling lonely, ugly, unaccepted, and scared. While smiling on the outside, they often feel deserted on the inside-even by their parents.
White’s insights into parenting and what kids really want from their parents will change not only how Christians think about their families but how they treat and raise the priceless jewels God has placed in their care. This is not a feel-good, no brainer book. This is a convicting, how-to book on raising children in homes of faith, love, security, and commitment.

Sexplosion : A Biblically Based Sexual Intimacy Workbook For Wives (Workbook)

For too long the secular society has been setting the standard for sex, for which the church should be setting the standard. No more!

No More Bullies
$18.99If you’ve ever been there, you’ve never forgotten how it feels. It’s being undersized or oversized or less than beautiful. It’s knowing you are vulnerable and that someone is ready to take advantage of your weakness. It’s the fraternity you never wanted to join-the fellowship of the wounded spirit. And Frank Peretti is a member, too.
In this powerful book, Frank Peretti shares his deeply personal story of growing up different, and the persecution he suffered because of it. And from this reservoir of memories he urges:
*those being abused to speak up and seek help
*those in authority to take notice- and action
*the “strong” kids to stand up and protect the weak- not prey upon them
*all of us to stop thinking of abuse as “normal” or as “kids being kids”This groundbreaking work shows how we all – bullies and victims alike – can find both healing and forgiveness from the anguish and torment associated with the growing epidemic of bullying.

Witnessing For Peace
$40.00The rapidly deteriorating situation in Israel/Palestine has dashed hopes of any imminent peace or even accommodation between the Israeli people and the Palestinian people. A leader in Palestinian Christianity, and an outspoken advocate of nonviolence and of Palestinian rights, Bishop Munib Younan directly addresses this situation and its imperatives. Born of Palestinian refugee parents and raised in Jerusalem, Younan has spent his life pastoring Palestinian Christians and searching for nonviolent solutions in this complex and volatile religious and political scene. In this volume, Younan presents first the historical and social context of the Palestinian situation, beginning with the not-well-known story of Arab Christianity and his own background. He elaborates his own theology of nonviolence, centered in the idea of martyria–heeding a call to justice, inclusion, and forgiveness. He illustrates the notion with dramatic and often tragic episodes and shows how it can address key issues in the current struggle with Israel over statehood, land, and refugees. Younan’s model of Christian nonviolence also has demonstrable benefits in addressing terrorism, interreligious strife, and global peacemaking. Younan’s is a voice all Christians of conscience should hear.
