Row For Freedom
$15.99Add to cartThe incredible story of one woman’s record-breaking row across the Atlantic to draw attention to human trafficking and come to terms with her own past.
In December 2011, 31-year-old Julia Immonen and four other women took on a challenge completed by fewer people than have climbed Mount Everest or gone into space: row 3,000 miles, unaided, from the Canary Islands to Barbados. Row for Freedom chronicles that journey, weaving together two narratives: the details of the grueling, peril-filled crossing that broke two world records and Julia’s own story of her search for hope and purpose against a background of relationships scarred by violence.
As Julia’s physical and emotional treks unfold, she highlights the plight of the 27 million victims of the modern-day slave trade, which serves as the motivation for her row. In addition to becoming motivated to play their own part in promoting freedom, readers will be inspired by Julia’s self-discovery and her team’s triumph in one of the most formidable physical quests ever undertaken.

No? Well, fortunately, Narayan Nair felt the Lord place this burden on his heart and without hesitation, he and his wife, Savita, began their life-long devotion to making God’s burden happen-beyond all reason. Surviving nearly constant persecution in some form or another-threats of bodily harm, military coups, mutinous leaderships, political and religious unrest, and other challenges to the stability of the whole college program, Nair and God’s believers withstood the tests with complete assurance God would prevail. Author Cathy Kreis has assembled a most fascinating history of the establishment of the Fiji College of Theology and Evangelism. You’ll get to bounce down the back roads with students and staff going to and from the various venues which are a part of the students’ everyday lives-complete with daily activities and menus established to support their survival both physically and spiritually. This modern-day heritage depicts one of God’s miracle movements for reaching the lost. Observe how living a lifestyle of trusting God, produces miracles and blessings for those who venture to do major efforts for His Glory. Not only is this a wonderful, historical documentation, complete with visiting missionaries, Beyond All Reason is bound to capture your heart.

Walls Fall Down
$19.99Add to cartUsing the battle of Jericho in the book of Joshua as a teaching metaphor, you learn seven steps to winning your impossible battles and how to find hope in those up-against-the-wall moments in your life.
What life circumstance has you up against a wall? The big problem that has stopped you in your tracks? The nagging little habit that robs you of joy? The emotional issue, mental block, or relational impasse that defies all your efforts to get past it?
Whatever wall blocks you from victory and freedom, you don’t have to be stuck behind it forever. That’s the heart of this enlightening and encouraging book. Joshua and his little band of Israelites listened to God, and the massive, fortified walls of Jericho crumbled before them. And the same spiritual principles that enabled them to prevail are available to each one of us today.
Dudley Rutherford draws on the techniques of biblical fiction to bring the story to life. Then he illuminates each of these seven principles-one for each day of the historic battle-and applies them to contemporary problems from depression to addiction to being overweight. The principles behind Joshua’s victory, he insists, provide the key to overcoming all our stubborn setbacks and unsolvable issues. When we choose to do things God’s way, walls crumble, victory replaces defeat, and God’s good future unfolds. As the story of Jericho vividly illustrates, “with God all things are possible.”

Burdened To Tell
$11.99Add to cartSharon Allen, a long-time public school administrator, was diagnosed with an extremely rare and lethal form of cancer. Having determined that God’s will was in opposition to treatment, she began writing this manuscript, at what she believed to be the bidding of the Holy Spirit. As she detailed her decision to refuse cancer treatment, what began to unfold was an account of a miraculous thread through her life. As a result, her theological foundations have evolved. She was “burdened to tell” many painful and embarrassing events revealed in these pages. She believes her obedience to place these events in print to glorify His name is one reason God has allowed her to live. It was not immediate, but it did evolve, whereby Sharon could thank the Lord for her cancer. Without that diagnosis, the reflections that took place while writing this manuscript detailing her sometimes troubled and often rebellious life would not have provided the blessings that have followed as a result. She was “Burdened to Tell” her whole story.

Broken And Blessed
$18.99Add to cartA little nod to those of us who are still feeling slightly half-baked: those with struggling families, cracked relationships, and a world that’s showing a little wear around the seams. When God wants to create the remarkable, He chooses to work with the less-than-perfect. Genesis is a book of beginnings. It is deeply concerned with the origins of things-of the universe, of humankind, of relationships, of sin, of civilization, of families, and of one special family created and chosen by God to be the instrument through which He would bless the world. That family is our family, yours and mine. Like all good family stories, it starts with not just a something or somewhere, but a someone. Part memoir, part biblical inspiration story,
Broken and Blessed is about how change begins when one person decides to believe God’s promises and how that makes a change in a family, like ripples on water.

Spacious Heart : Room For Spiritual Awakening
$16.99Add to cartWhy do people, including Christians, feel empty, estranged and cynical?
Many of us have tired of the pat answers that the church and religion have provided about our questions about faith and meaning in life. We know there’s more-and we stand on the cusp of spiritual awakening, longing to reshape our connection with God.
In the tradition of Ronald Rolheiser’s The Holy Longing, Don Clymer and Sharon Clymer Landis (brother and sister, both spiritual directors and retreat leaders) take modern spirituality and turn it on its head to flesh out a Christian spiritualty of emptying oneself. How can I know God more fully? What does it mean to be a true servant walking closely with God: brutally honest with oneself, and true to Christ? Through riveting stories and text grounded in scripture, the book speaks to the deep cynicism of soul and despair that grip so many in this age.
Anyone wanting to become more loving, in touch with feelings, friends and family will find hope and direction in this easy-to-read book on the spiritual journey. We are all hungry for a full-flavored life, yet we ignore our deepest soul and quiet our cravings with more of everything. How does one embrace a spiritually simple life-gracious, accepting and fulfilling?

Never Ever Give Up
$19.99Add to cartIt started with a simple question: How can we help them? It became an international movement called NEGU: Never Ever Give Up. When Jessica Joy Rees was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor at age 11, she chose to focus not on herself but on bringing joy and hope to other children suffering from cancer. During the ten months she battled cancer, she and her family worked in the ‘Joy Factory’ (originally their garage) making JoyJars—packages filled with toys, games, and love for other kids with cancer. Jessie first handed them out personally at the hospital where she was being treated, but the effort blossomed quickly and there were soon thousands of JoyJars being distributed across the United States and to over fifteen countries. Today, more than 100,000 kids have received JoyJars, and they continue shipping each week to kids in over 200 children’s hospitals and 175 Ronald McDonald Houses. Jessie lost her battle with cancer in January 2012, but her message lives on in the Jessie Rees Foundation, which has become a beacon of hope for families fighting pediatric cancer. Join the movement at www.negu.org.

Pause For Pastors
$19.99Add to cartI remember my final Sunday as a lead pastor. Though I often forget things, I can’t forget that. Faces and voices, a sanctuary and a pulpit, many years and many moments.
Memories were breathing-all replaying at once. Life and death. Marriages and funerals. Prayers and songs and laughter and disagreements and meals and conversations and pain. And more prayer.
As I think back to those experiences, I’m asking myself, “What did I learn?” Not, “Did I succeed?” or “Did I fail?” Pause for Pastors is filled stories of lessons learned. Stories that just might help a pastor and his family smile when they hear this word, church. Stories that just might help a pastor and his family pursue help when they’re carrying too heavy of this weight, church. Stories of honesty-told by myself and many others-that just might offer a little bit of peace in the storms of pastoral life.
As we’ve emphasized in each book of this series, pause in your rush through life and notice yourself. Visit your own stories. The stories of hurt, of grief, of anger, of regret. The chapters of life and death and nothingness. The words of healing on those rare perfect days.
For now, for this now, choose to stop. Read the nouns and verbs. Slowly. During the storm, read and receive and rest. -

When God Died
$14.99Add to cartMediations for Lent
“Did Christ die as God, or did He die as man? The answer to such a question is that He died as neither. What gives efficacy to the cross is the fact that Christ died as the God-man….The blood He shed, therefore, has abiding efficacy, seeing that it was the blood of an extraordinary nature, namely, the blood of God and Man combined.”
How could God, the deathless One, die? In When God Died, legendary Bible teacher Dr. Herbert Lockyer explores the person of Christ-both His divinity and humanity-in an effort to show the majesty of His death and resurrection, and what they mean to us today.
This series of Lenten meditations will open your eyes to the purpose, power, and beauty of Christ’s crucifixion. Among the topics you will explore are:
*The magnanimity and honor of Christ
*The cleansing power of His blood
*The sovereign power of His grace
*The last seven words Christ spoke from the crossMay we take the time to lovingly remember Christ’s sacrifice-the means of His extraordinary grace and power to save dying sinners-so that we may stand in rightful relationship with Christ, in awe of His holiness, power, and wisdom, with a heart of gratitude for all He has done.

“The most humble and uncultured saint, perhaps the poorest new convert in the jungles of Africa, or a lowly laborer, toiling in some factory or mine, can look in the face of the most brilliant human genius who knows not God in personal faith and fellowship, and say, ‘I live in a higher world than you, for I have spiritual life, I have eternal life, I have a life that death cannot destroy and sin cannot defile and judgment cannot dismay, and eternal ages can never end. I have everlasting life.'”
-A. B. Simpson, Life More AbundantlyChristians were never meant to lead insignificant lives devoid of impact or achievement. By focusing on the abundant life that God offers, you can make the most out of the days you have been given.

C S Lewis And Mere Christianity
$17.99Add to cartMere Christianity is one of the best books of Christian apologetics ever written. Arguably, no book other than the Bible itself has had as much influence for the cause of the gospel over the past 60 years. The story of how that message came to be created, during the rigors of World War II in England, is fascinating in and of itself. But it also addresses a very important question: How do we present the gospel effectively to a culture that has Christian foundations but has become largely secularized and ignorant of biblical truth?
C.S. Lewis and Mere Christianity develops the circumstances of Lewis’s life and the inner workings of the BBC. It also goes into greater detail about life in the middle of war against Nazi Germany, and Lewis’s series of broadcasts that extended into 1944.

Day I Died
$14.99Add to cartFreddy Vest was on the back of a horse, competing in a calf-roping event in front of a crowd when he suddenly collapsed due to a heart attack. He was dead before he hit the ground.
One moment he was sitting on his horse. The next moment he was somewhere else-somewhere beyond description. He had moved on. Without travel, transport, angelic assistance, or the passage of time-he was with Jesus, where he discovered firsthand that heaven is a real place and God is a real person and that death is not the end but the beginning of true life.
In The Day I Died, Vest touches on the transformation from death to heaven and some of the benefits of finding oneself in that place, including:
*The unforgettable awareness of God’s presence
*The sense of His immeasurable love
*The freedom from the constraints of time
*The ease of communication with the Lord
*The peace and security that attend His presence
*The understanding that prayers are instantly heard by God.
