Additional Info
How are Christians viewed in the broader culture? We blush at the possibilities. Brainwashed fanatics? Out-of-touch dogmatists? Buffoons? The task of bearing faithful witness to Jesus is complicated by persistent-and not altogether baseless-cultural stereotypes. In our post-Christian society, thoughtful Christians are considering again how to engage the dominant culture as a minority, a counterpublic, amid varying perceptions and misperceptions. In this timely book, Timothy Muehlhoff and Rick Langer ask what our interactions with the dominant cultural ethos should look like. How might we be persuasive and civil at the same time? How should we respond to those who ridicule and caricature us? How can we challenge the beliefs of other communities with love and respect? Muehlhoff and Langer present a model for cultural engagement that integrates communication theory, theology, and Scripture. Penetrating, wise, and relentlessly practical, it includes test cases and examples from history, such as William Wilberforce and Harriet Beecher Stowe. Now more than ever, Christians need what Winsome Persuasion offers: a compelling vision of public engagement that is both shrewd and gracious.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Jesus modeled grace-paced leadership. To learn that we begin not with leading, but with following.” In these pages Alan Fadling unfolds what it means for leaders to let Jesus set the pace.

Movies Are Prayers
$17.99Movies are our way of telling God what we think about this world and our place in it. . . . Movies can be many things: escapist experiences, historical artifacts, business ventures, and artistic expressions, to name a few. I’d like to suggest that they can also be prayers. Movies do more than tell a good story. They are expressions of raw emotion, naked vulnerability, and unbridled rage. They often function in the same way as prayers, communicating our deepest longings and joys, to a God who hears each and every one. In this captivating book, Filmspotting cohost Josh Larsen brings a critic’s unique perspective to how movies function as expressions to God of lament, praise, joy, confession, and more. His clear expertise and passion for the art of film along with his thoughtful reflections on the nature of prayer will bring you a better understanding of both. God’s omnipresence means that you can find him whether you’re sitting on your sofa at home or in the seats at the theater. You can talk to him wherever movies are shown. And when words fail, the perfect film might be just what you need to jumpstart your conversations with the Almighty.

i The Root Of Sin Exposed
$15.99Since the Garden of Eden sin has ravaged people’s lives, leaving behind a plethora of troubling problems such as anxieties, fears, insecurities, confusion, unbelief, bitterness, sexual hang-ups, and even addictions.

Break Open The Sky
$15.99In a World that Thrives on Fear, Have Faith
Terrorism. Racism. Refugees. Political vitriol. Our culture is driven by fear. Compared to all previous generations, we are more safe, live longer, hurt less, and earn more. Yet, we are more afraid than ever.
Our faith has fallen prey to this culture of fear. Fear slips into our souls, leaving us not only afraid, but on edge and constantly anxious. No longer a safe harbor, a source of strength, and a bastion for love, faith has become a caricature of the real thing. We are left wondering, questioning, even disillusioned.
We face a defining moment. Will we cave in to fear or rise in faith? Stephan Bauman, the former president of World Relief, has seen firsthand in some of the most difficult places in the world how it is possible to embrace love in the face of fear. Break Open the Sky is an invitation into living out what matters most. We can become, once again, a community of hope.

Learning Contentment : A Study For Ladies Of Every Age
$20.00We tend to think being “stressed out” is a normal state of affairs, and that contentment means sitting back and just bottling things up. For the Christian, however, contentment is something we must apply, work at, and make our own in every circumstance, because anxiety and frustration are not neutral behaviors.
It is certainly easier to just go with our natural impulses when times are “annoying” or when times are very hard, but contentment is an important part of our Christian life. Even the apostle Paul had to “learn” contentment. So we shouldn’t wonder why we’re still in spiritual kindergarten-repeating the same lessons over and over again-if we haven’t given ourselves to study contentment.
Thankfully, every test God gives on contentment is open book (even the pop quizzes!). In Learning Contentment, Nancy Wilson looks to the Bible and Puritans like Burroughs, Rutherford, Watson, and Spurgeon to help us develop the practical, spiritual strength and the perspective that comes from contentment’s deep satisfaction with the will of God.
This encouraging little book includes concise explanations, application questions and assignments that will involve and challenge everyone, and lots of biblical wisdom for individuals and groups.

Need For Transformation
$15.93The book was written in the hope that followers of Jesus Christ will become more aware of the importance of the transformation process. The Need for Transformation is a sincere and encouraging spiritual handbook that helps followers to keep focused on the transformative influence and presence of God in their lives-if only they are open to him and turn to his direction. This transformation allows for Christian followers to think more effectively in their walk with God and as Brides of Christ. The result of thinking like Him is a unique mindset found in the Bride of Christ. The Brides of Christ are followers that have a much deeper personal relationship with Him when seeking first the Kingdom of Heaven and its righteousness. The 21st-Century Virgins are followers who are saved but have not established a forever love personal intimate relationship with Christ through seeking the Kingdom of Heaven and have not come to know their purpose in him. This process increases their capability to live an abundant life as men and women in the Body of Christ. The church is faced with the challenge of developing and implementing programs into its weekly routine that not only attract nonbelievers but also teach current believers to realize how important it is to seek the Kingdom of God and its righteousness and the need for transformation as it relates to discovering their purpose.

Man Depravity And The Quest For God
$12.99He will listen to the prayers of the destitute, for He is never too busy to heed our request. Let’s pray for revival that will bring change to our societies. His turning of events, His power to heal our land or judges situations will be greatly marvelled by His creation. His turning of events from hopelessness to life, from death to life is a great thing to be acknowledged. God’s way or perspective is different from man’s method. God’s healing is whole and complete. His turning of impending disaster is miraculous. Psalm 102:19-20 says, “For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth; to hear the groaning of the prisoner; to release those that are appointed to death.”
The quest for God will bring solution to the problem of mankind. God looks down from the temple in heaven and when we seek for Him, He will hear the groans of His people in Satan’s slavery. He will release us from death so that multitudes would stream to the body of Christ.

Its His Show
$15.28It’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.

The other side of brokenness
“If I could write only one book in my lifetime, I would ask God to make it this one, the very book you now hold in your hands. . . .”? Sheila Walsh
God loves broken people. And when weary, wounded men and women find a way to open their bruised hearts and somehow welcome Him into their personal darkness, they will find a love beyond anything they have ever known.
When the glass house Sheila had lived in for so many years came crashing to the ground, she began a new life outside the safety of those walls. No, it didn’t feel good, nor safe?not at all. But it felt true. Sheila saw herself as a broken lamb limping after the Shepherd, not knowing where He was going, but knowing that wherever He went, she wanted to go with Him.
In twelve stirring, insightful, and deeply revealing chapters, Sheila Walsh shows how personal brokenness can open doors of intimacy with Jesus Christ that might never open in any other way.
It’s not that God loves broken people more than those who imagine themselves to be whole?it’s simply that they know they are loved. They dare to believe it . . . and through such trust, a new wholeness emerges from yesterday’s broken pieces.

A Allen And Miracle Valley
$18.73This book appears to represent the first attempt at a truly comprehensive biographical approach to the evangelist named A. A. Allen with emphasis on his ministry and the legacy of that ministry. Allen could be considered a controversial character and even after many years, well over four decades since his death, emotions run high regarding this man and his life and character. Some rush to condemn him while others seek to justify him. In bothcases, it would seem, the facts have frequently become garbled with the telling of his life story over the years. This book considers the legacy of Allen?s ministry following his death in 1970.

“My child, you can do anything; nothing is impossible for you!”
Learn how to:
*Identify thoughts of fear, unbelief, and shame so you can quickly shut down the attacks of the enemy
*Exchange wrong thoughts for what God says about you and learn how to let His promises supernaturally adjust your thinking
*Watch as your beliefs about God, your identity and your calling agree with what God saysYou were created for the impossible.
Start believing and embrace the miraculous life God has for you!

Just Immigration : American Policy In Christian Perspective
$28.99Few issues are as complex and controversial as immigration in the United States. The only thing anyone seems to agree on is that the system is broken. Mark Amstutz offers a succinct overview and assessment of current immigration policy and argues for an approach to the complex immigration debate that is solidly grounded in Christian political thought.
After analyzing key laws and institutions in the US immigration system, Amstutz examines how Catholics, evangelicals, and main-line Protestants have used Scripture to address social and political issues, including immigration. He critiques the ways in which many Christians have approached immigration reform and offers concrete suggestions on how Christian groups can offer a more credible political engagement with this urgent policy issue.

Pastor and spiritual director Casey Tygrett loves to ask questions. “There’s a difficult line to walk between what we need to know and what falls into the realm of mystery,” he writes. “Walking that line wears on our nerves and causes incredible tension, so we sometimes settle for easy answers. We begin lose the one thing that fiercely energizes the transformation of our souls. . . .

Start With Amen
$18.99One power-packed word: amen. Millions of Christians all over the world say this word every day. Yet few realize what richness, depth, truth, and connection are packed into this sacred phrase. Throughout the centuries, Christian tradition has taught us to end prayers with amen. But the Bible is full of stories and passages where God’s people started their prayers with amen. Why? As Beth Guckenberger shows, amen is more than just a way to punctuate a conversation with the God of the Universe. Amen is a declaration of who God is and who we are in relation to him. It is a moment of submission and worship, saying “So be it” to a Sovereignty that holds all things, and acknowledging “It is as you say” to him who holds our lives. In Amen, Beth unpacks all the Bible has to teach us about the moment we say amen to God. Using key scripture passages mixed with fresh teaching and personal stories, she invites readers to experience the richness they’ve been missing. Amen is more than just a word. Amen is a full invitation from God packed with all that he requires from us and all he longs to bestow upon us as his beloved children. As Beth writes, “He is beckoning us all. Come to me. Learn my ways. You are my child, whom I dearly love and bought with a price. The God of Amen rescued you so you can echo amen back to him. God intended this word to be a moment of intimacy, drenched in reverence, replete with peace-the moment when you rest in him and are rejuvenated by him. There is so much more he wants to give. Amen.” If Christians long to be truly connected to their Creator, they must begin with amen. For, as Isaiah 65:16 says, “Because he who is blessed in the earth will be blessed by the God of Amen.”

If you’ve ever watched one of those movies where regular people are walking around minding their own business, until without warning their chests burst open and alien life-forms come slithering out, then you know what it’s like to suddenly find yourself with a middle-schooler. Your once-peaceful home full of silliness and laughter morphs into the twisted landscape of a forbidding alien world, where moody adolescents drag their claws and moan about . . . well, just about everything.
Welcome to Planet Middle School. Better get comfortable. You’ll be here awhile.
Lucky for you, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Kevin Leman successfully navigated Planet Middle School with five children. With his expert guidance, you’ll see how you can help your child not only survive but thrive during these turbulent years. Leman shows you how to:
* understand your child’s rapidly expanding world
* respond rather than react to mood swings
* tell your child about sex (before someone else tells their version)
* create opportunities for your child to practice selflessness and gratitude
* ensure that your kid is one who loves home and family
* and much moreMiddle-schoolers can be a strange, unpredictable species. But with a little help from Dr. Leman, you can ride out the interstellar storm with humor and confidence.
Houston, we have a problem.
It happens to every parent. One day, you have a sweet son or daughter who loves to snuggle on the couch and who puts a smile on your face just by walking into the room. The next day, it’s as if someone left the door open and let in an alien with a smart mouth and an attitude that, frankly, you could do without. Entering middle school is like stepping onto a different planet–for parent and child alike.
But these years don’t have to create chaos in your family. In fact, they can be some of the best, most fruitful years of all, a time when you can grow closer rather than drift apart. From the internal storms of hormonal changes to the external challenges of peer pressure and our technology-saturated culture, your child is under constant bombardment. Learn how to come alongside your middle-schooler with the love, understanding, and values that will see you both safely back home to earth when your time on Planet Middle School is over.

NotesAdditional Info
To be human is to long for home. Home is our most fundamental human longing. And for many of us homesickness is a nagging place of grief. This book connects that desire and disappointment with the story of the Bible, helping us to see that there is a homemaking God with wide arms of welcome-and a church commissioned with this same work. “Many of us seem to be recovering the sacred, if ordinary, beauty of place,” writes author Jen Pollock Michel. “Perhaps we’re reading along with Wendell Berry, falling in love with Berry’s small-town barber and Jayber Crow’s small-town life. . . . Or maybe we’re simply reading our Bibles better, discovering that while we might wish to flatten Scripture to serve our didactic purposes, it rises up in flesh and sinew, muscle and bone: God’s holy story is written in the lives of people and their places.” Including a five-session discussion guide and paired with a companion DVD, Keeping Place offers hope to the wanderer, help to the stranded, and a new vision of what it means to live today with our longings for eternal home.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Aun asi, por todas partes la gente lo esta haciendo en este momento. Ellos le estan abriendo de par en par las puertas de su vida y comunidades a una serpiente espiritual tan mortal, que segun la Biblia, trae con ella toda obra mala .

This evil snake has slithered its way into our marriages, families, churches, towns, cities and government, and its divisive onslaught has left a wake of carnage and destruction. Who is this enemy, and how can he be stopped?

Gender Roles And The People Of God
$24.99Most women in the church don’t aspire to “lord it” over men, nor do they want to scramble for position. Instead, they want to be accepted as full participants in God’s work, sharing in kingdom tasks in ways that use their gifts appropriately.
In Gender Roles and the People of God, author, radio host, and professor at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Alice Mathews surveys the roles women have played in the Bible and throughout church history, demonstrating both the inspiring contributions of women and the many hurdles that have been placed in their path. Along the way, she investigates the difficult passages often used to preclude women from certain areas of service, pointing to better and more faithful understandings of those verses.
Encouraging and hopeful, Mathews aims for an “egalitarian complementarity” in which men and women use all of their gifts in the church together, in partnership, for the glory of God.

Beautiful Light : Religious Meaning In Film
$31.99“Religious” films don’t tend to get much respect in Hollywood, but that doesn’t mean that religion doesn’t regularly find its way into the movies. In Beautiful Light Roy Anker seeks out the often-unnoticed connections between film and religion and shows how even movies that aren’t overtly religious or Christian in their content can be filled with deep religious insights and spiritual meaning.
Closely examining nine critically acclaimed films including Magnolia, The Apostle, American Gigolo, and M. Night Shyamalan’s Wide Awake, Anker analyzes the ways in which these movies explore what it means to be human-and what it means, as human beings, to wrestle with an often unwieldy divine presence. Addressing questions of doubt and belief, despair and elation, hatred and love, Anker’s work sheds “beautiful light” on some of Hollywood’s most profound and memorable films.

Not All Roads Lead To Heaven (Reprinted)
$17.99Almost 60 percent of those in American evangelical churches believe that many religions can lead to eternal life. But if Jesus is to be trusted when he says that no one comes to the Father except through him, the church is failing in its mission. And it’s not hard to guess why. An exclusive Jesus just isn’t popular in our inclusive world.
Dr. Robert Jeffress calls on Christians to recover the exclusive claims of the one they claim as Lord and Savior, not as a way to keep people out of heaven but as the only way to invite them in. He tackles questions like:
*Can people be saved who have never heard of Christ?
*What about those who worship God by another name?
*Do children automatically go to Heaven when they die?True compassion for non-Christians doesn’t lie in letting them go their way while we go ours, but in sharing the only true way with them.

When Changing Nothing Changes Everything
$17.99Reframing your perspective can transform your life. We often face circumstances that we cannot change-a job we are forced to keep, a relationship that did not work out, a decision we cannot take back. The stress of life can overwhelm us, and we may not see past the obstacles in our path. In the face of unwanted challenges, we may despair over our lack of control and long for an easier way out. Laurie Polich Short offers a simple but revolutionary idea: change nothing that is around you yet still change everything about your life. With the help of four different lenses, Polich Short shows how the way you see can have an impact on how you live. If you put on the right lenses, you can reframe whatever comes your way and embrace both the good and the bad, recognizing that every detail of your life is fully in God’s sovereign hand. Jesus indicates the power of focus when he says, “The eye is the lamp of the body, if the eye is good then the whole body will be full of light.” It’s the easiest way to find lasting meaning and purpose. Change nothing, but see differently. Your perspective has more power than you think to determine the course of your life.

Wisdom Wins : Finding The Path Of Godly Wisdom For Your Life
$14.99Everyone is looking for “a bit of wisdom” to help them navigate their everyday lives successfully. In fact, the request for wisdom is probably the thing we most frequently ask God, our spiritual leaders, or wise friends for. Stephen Matthew’s many years of pastoral experience have taught him that the last thing people need is a book of simplistic, stock answers to that question. Life is far too complicated for that! True wisdom is greater than any set of guidelines or rules for living. It is something we must seek, find, embrace, imbibe and which eventually becomes an essential part of us. This book will introduce you to the “way of wisdom” in a wonderfully practical way. As you explore this theme, you will soon understand that Wisdom Wins! It wins the argument, the battle, the war, and ultimately the prize. Start your personal journey into the “wisdom from heaven” you seek.
