Coping With Your Pain And Suffering
$19.99Add to cartLife is full of challenges and even as Christians, we are not strangers to pain and suffering. The stories in the Bible have shown us that even favored kings like David and Solomon had their share of ordeals. The apostle, Paul, had to walk a lonely and hardship-filled road on his way to greatness. Job, a person worthy of admiration, went through sickness and almost loses the fight for his faith.
Are you in the grip of pain and suffering? Are you struggling to keep your faith in the midst of all the trials? In this book, Matthew shows us that we can find joy in the journey and live life with a purpose. He will walk us through the lives of the people in the Bible who went through trials and tribulations and have persevered to fight another day in the Grace of God. Matthew will share his own struggles with a mental illness and how he has learned to ride the storm with Jesus. He reveals to us that when the pain seems unbearable, we can find comfort in knowing that we are loved and Jesus is with us every step of the way.
Jesus suffered and died on the cross not just to save us, but to identify with our life as a mortal. If you are wondering what you can look forward to with all the pain in your life, Matthew shares the hope of healing and the rewards of a glorious life in Heave

Living For Eternity
$19.99Add to cartHave you ever pondered life beyond the one that we live on this earth? What does living for eternity mean for you as a Christian? Is there more to it than just existing for a short time and then dying? These are questions that must have entered everyone’s mind at one time or another, but being so busy with the challenges of life, it is often relegated to the shelf, to be looked at and evaluated at a much later time. The dilemma is determining how much time we have. The ultimate aim for Christians is to get to Heaven and be in the presence of our God Almighty for all eternity, but not everyone is granted a pass into the Kingdom. We need to begin sowing treasures in Heaven by living a life on earth that is befitting of a Christian. This is simpler than most of us imagine. We do not have to be rich or famous. We only need to bear in mind that we will not get to Heaven by our works here on earth but by putting out trust in the finished works of Jesus. In this book, Matthew provides us with simple ways on how to prepare for our life in eternity. He reminds us that God’s grace is a favor that He bestowed on us at salvation, therefore, we are to release it to others as well. How do we put this into practice? We need to learn how to consistently be Christ to others and to tell people about Heaven’s perfect love story. Living with eternity in mind is the way we are meant to live. It will change our outlook about almost everything. We can see the impact that we can make if we think beyond ourselves and live a day to day life that represents Christ to those who do not know Him.

Plain Choice : A True Story Of Choosing To Live An Amish Life
$15.99Add to cartRaised in a broken family and emotionally overlooked, Sherry Gore grew up without a solid foundation, a prisoner of her own poor choices, and at times without hope. A series of terrible mistakes left her feeling wrecked and alone and a sudden tragedy threw Sherry into an emotional tailspin too powerful to escape.
Sherry hangs by a thread, unable to see how she can go on living, until it happens: on a morning of no particular significance, she walks into a church and BAM the truth of Jesus’ forgiving love shatters her world and cleaves her life in two: She goes to bed stunned; she wakes up a Christian.
Unwilling to return to the darkness of her former life, Sherry attacks her faith head on. Soon the life Sherry Gore remakes for herself and her children as she seeks to follow the teachings of the Bible features head coverings, simple dress, and a focus on Jesus Christ. Only then does she realize, in a fit of excitement, that there are others like her. They are called Amish and Mennonite, and she realizes she has found her people.
The plain choice that Sherry makes is not easy – and life still brings unexpected pain and heartache – but it changes everything for her, as she becomes one of the few people on earth to have successfully joined the Amish from the outside.
She has found her place. And her story proves that one can return from the darkest depths to the purest light with the power of God.

Where The Wind Leads
$19.99Add to cartVinh Chung was born in South Vietnam, just eight months after it fell to the communists in 1975. His family was wealthy, controlling a rice-milling empire worth millions; but within months of the communist takeover, the Chungs lost everything and were reduced to abject poverty. Knowing that their children would have no future under the new government, the Chungs decided to flee the country. In 1979, they joined the legendary “boat people” and sailed into the South China Sea, despite knowing that an estimated two hundred thousand of their countrymen had already perished at the hands of brutal pirates and violent seas.
Where the Wind Leads follows Vinh Chung and his family on their desperate journey from pre-war Vietnam, through pirate attacks on a lawless sea, to a miraculous rescue and a new home in the unlikely town of Fort Smith, Arkansas. There Vinh struggled against poverty, discrimination, and a bewildering language barrier-yet still managed to graduate from Harvard Medical School.Where the Wind Leads is Vinh’s tribute to the courage and sacrifice of his parents, a testimony to his family’s faith, and a reminder to people everywhere that the American dream, while still possible, carries with it a greater responsibility.

In The Crucible
$14.00Add to cartGod is in the white-hot crucible experiences of our lives.
There are life experiences that can crush our spirits, overwhelm our emotions, cause our minds to spin, leave our bodies weak o point of collapse, and lead us to cry out, “Lord, I don’t know if I can handle this.” Such experiences can be compared to being in a crucible-a vessel that can withstand the high temperatures needed to melt metal without affecting the essence of the metal. The crucible is the image used in Scripture to describe the spiritual formation work God is doing in our lives. We are not alone in the crucible. God is with us in the midst of it, sustaining us!
In the Crucible is a journey through such an experience. Walk with the author and see how you too can “see” God in the midst of your hard times and experience the steadfast heart He give us to sustain you. In the Crucible is “a cane” that will help you keep your balance when you wonder how you can continue? (from the Forward by Haddon Robinson.

God Healed Me
$13.00Add to cartMy journey started in 2002, I was a fit and healthy person and started to get discomfort in my right shoulder. After many tests the doctors discovered that I had a large tumour in my shoulder. I was shocked, devastated and very fearful. Was I going to live or was I going to die?

Not Eden : Spiritual Life Writing For This World
$28.99Add to cartNot Eden represents a challenging new appraisal of the methods, purpose and practice of spiritual life writing.
Part 1 examines some of the traditions that have governed spiritual life writing in the past. A dominant assumption, displayed in many confessional texts, has been that spiritual autobiographies chart a journey away from the concerns of this world towards a deeper understanding of the divine. However, alternative forms of spiritual life writing have always existed alongside these authoritative traditions. In these, spirituality appears as deeply interwoven with the fabric of everyday life. It is embodied, contingent and involves deep connections with others.
Part 2 consists of a work of spiritual life writing in which the claims made in part one are explored and tested. It constitutes a fully worked example of the way in which spiritual life writing can enable us to face the deepest challenges of this world.

Lost And Found (Reprinted)
$16.99Add to cartLike every girl, Sarah Jakes dreamed of a life full of love, laughter, and happy endings. But her dreams changed dramatically when she became pregnant at age thirteen, a reality only compounded by the fact that her father, Bishop T.D. Jakes, was one of the most influential megachurch pastors in the nation. As a teen mom and a high-profile preacher’s kid, her road was lonely. She was shunned at school, gossiped about at church. And a few years later, when a fairy-tale marriage ended in a spiral of hurt and rejection, she could have let her pain dictate her future.
Instead, she found herself surrounded by a God she’d given up on, crashing headlong with him into a destiny she’d never dreamed of. Sarah’s captivating story, unflinchingly honest and deeply vulnerable, is a vivid reminder that God can turn even the deepest pain into his perfection.

Reason For My Hope
$18.99Add to cart“The Reason for My Hope: Salvation “presents the essence of that transformative message. It is biblical and timeless, and though simple and direct, it is far from easy.

But through its ominous warnings shines a light that cannot be extinguished–a beacon of hope that Jesus came “to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10).

Christ In You
$15.00Add to cartChristianity has an image problem–but not the way you think. While it’s troubling the way the world sees us, how we see ourselves is the truer problem. We carry secret shames; as a result, our ability to give and receive praise, favor, and abundance depends on how much we think we, and others, deserve.
Nothing could be more devastating to the Kingdom.
God–the vast, omniscient, benevolent God of the universe–lives inside us. And if we truly understood what this means, says Eric Johnson, senior pastor of Bethel Church in Redding, then we would begin to see ourselves the way he does: worthy.
Here Johnson helps all Christians move beyond the limitations we place on ourselves, others–and God–and embrace the truth of who we are and who God is. Don’t settle for a defeated, powerless existence. He created you for a passionate, powerful, and purposeful life. Believe this, and trust him, and you can change the world.

When a massive pileup on an Arizona highway caused Valerie Paters and her Jeep to be entombed beneath a semi truck in a blinding snowstorm, it seemed certain that her life would soon end. Once extracted from the mangled metal, and suffering from massive injuries, Valerie was hospitalized and placed on life support while doctors waited to harvest her organs.

Victory Lap : Growing Old With God
$14.99Add to cartIt happens to all of us if we live long enough. We grow older, with all the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual challenges that implies. But that’s really good news. It means we’re living longer, healthier lives and that we have the opportunity to continue learning and growing and contributing for a long time.
The Victory Lap is about all that. It’s also about exercise, good diet, sleep. About our need for each other, to be involved with life and to prepare for death and the legacy we leave behind.
It’s about treasuring life, feeling gratitude to God and the people around us, adjusting to retirement and filling that extra time well. It’s about being honest and real, with ourselves and other people.

Losing A J
$14.99Add to cartSome of the best stories to read are those that were not pleasant to experience. Losing AJ is a book that reveals the story of an honest journey. And, while revealing, the pages invite us to notice our own stories, our own tension, our own pain.
To be able to present such a drama, Adam needed to face the realities of his own disappointments. He has. And he has faced them without escaping or denying; he has faced them while crying, while praying, while wanting, while grieving. He has faced them with God.
His story lets us gaze into his pain. While observing, we just might begin noticing our own. And we might begin noticing God in a new way. As Adam writes, “This book will encourage you to search out help and realize that you are not admitting that you are weak in doing so. You are admitting that you are human. You are worth saving.”
I invite you to welcome this story. Visit the storm. Notice the wounds.
The valley of the shadow of death isn’t just a line from Psalm 23. It is life. It is story. But not the end of a story, just a portion in the journey toward healing.
And those stories are worth saving.

Buscando A Ala Encontrando A J – (Spanish)
$16.99Add to cartEn Buscando a Ala, encontrando a Jesus, Nabeel Qureshi, quien fuera devoto musulman, describe su dramatico peregrinar del Islam al cristianismo, y con el, todas las amistades, investigaciones, suenos y visiones que fue encontrando por el camino. Muchos occidentales estan confundidos acerca del Islam, les tienen algo de temor a los musulmanes, o sencillamente no estan informados acerca de la relacion que existe entre la fe islamica y la cristiana. A su vez, a muchos musulmanes, una serie de barreras culturales, intelectuales y teologicas les impiden comprender, o incluso escuchar correctamente, el evangelio de Jesucristo. A lo largo de su historia, Qureshi nos presenta una apologetica compasiva, pero poderosa a favor del cristianismo sobre el Islam, enfatizando las relaciones y el amor. Los apendices aportados por eruditos y expertos populares les dan mas informacion a los musulmanes para que la analicen, y a los cristianos para que la consulten en sus discusiones espirituales con sus amigos musulmanes. Fascinante como relato y util como recurso apologetico, Buscando a Ala, encontrando a Jesus, les presenta a los lectores una poderosa historia sobre el choque entre el Islam y el cristianismo dentro del corazon de un hombre, y sobre la paz que termino hallando en Jesus.

Transcending Mysteries : Who Is God And What Does He Want From Us
$19.99Add to cart“We fell in love with Jesus. Then we had to decide what to do with God.”
In Transcending Mysteries: Who Is God, and What Does He Want from Us? Andrew Greer and Ginny Owens take readers on a journey to answer the question: is the God of the Old Testament the same God we relate to and worship today?
As the most definitive written revelation of who God is, Scripture has always been vital to the stories of the Christian faith. The Old Testament has proved especially tough for those who have been persuaded by the gracious gospel of Jesus but also desire to surrender to a God they don’t fully comprehend. We adore the Son of God, but what about God the Father?
Using Old Testament stories Andrew and Ginny help Christ-followers reconcile a New Testament Redeemer with an Old Testament God and understand what God really wants from His people. They dialog back and forth as they share their own stories of struggle and surrender. Their comments are separated by speaker identifiers that are used throughout.
Features include:
*Old Testament stories that are completed in Jesus’ message
*Dialog between Andrew Greer and Ginny Owens
*Music lyrics from Andrew and Ginny that illustrate biblical truths
*Thought-provoking questions for reflection or study -
7 Men : And The Secret Of Their Greatness
$19.99Add to cartIn Seven Men, New York Times best-selling author Eric Metaxas presents seven exquisitely crafted short portraits of widely known-but not well understood-Christian men, each of whom uniquely showcases a commitment to live by certain virtues in the truth of the gospel. Written in a beautiful and engaging style, Seven Men addresses what it means (or should mean) to be a man today, at a time when media and popular culture present images of masculinity that are not the picture presented in Scripture and historic civil life. What does it take to be a true exemplar as a father, brother, husband, leader, coach, counselor, change agent, and wise man? What does it mean to stand for honesty, courage, and charity, especially at times when the culture and the world run counter to those values? Each of the seven biographies represents the life of a man who experienced the struggles and challenges to be strong in the face of forces and circumstances that would have destroyed the resolve of lesser men.
Each of the seven men profiled-George Washington, William Wilberforce, Eric Liddell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Jackie Robinson, John Paul II, and Charles Colson-call the reader to a more elevated walk and lifestyle, one that embodies the gospel in the world around us. -
Divided : When The Head And Heart Dont Agree
$22.99Add to cartThe longest distance in the universe is between the head and heart. For Christ-followers, it is the chasm between what we say we believe in our minds and what we truly believe in our hearts: a split between our statements about God and our experience of Him. This divide is everywhere around us, causing untold devastation. It is found in the double lives of believers and in the hypocrisy of church leaders, but mainly we see it in ourselves. It is the default position of every human heart.
In Divided: When the Head and Heart Don’t Agree, Bill Delvaux exposes this divide and offers strategies to tackle it. The actual journey to cross the divide is sketched out, an epic journey that will take us into our deepest fear and shame and on into the wonder of God’s presence. For becoming undivided is not just another task. It’s the pathway into the very heart of the Father.
Features include:
*Strategies for closing the divide between head and heart
*Specific prayers for each stage of the spiritual journey
*Thought-provoking questions for spiritual conversation or reflection -
