Se Un Hombre De Fe Inquebranta – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartDuring the course of his 60-year ministry, John Osteen combined an extraordinary love for people with a vision for ministry best described in his own words: “No limits.” In this volume not only includes content from John’s sermon transcripts, but also a foreword and commentary written by his son, Joel; the principles of this “no limits” faith come alive again for a new generation.
For the moments of struggle and temptation that every man faces, and the times in life when he feels surrounded and under attack, John’s message is profoundly simple-those moments are precisely the time for an unwavering faith.
In this book, John schools today’s believers in seven qualities of unwavering faith:
1. It hears and sees what the world cannot see or hear.
2. It prays earnestly even though it has already heard the answer.
3. It is strong when there is no evidence of the answer.
4. It always says, “Go Again!”
5. It goes on when there’s just a little evidence.
6. It believes for the big when it sees the little.
7. It begins with nothing but ends up doing mighty things for God.Durante sus 60 anos como pastor, John Osteen combino su extraordinario amor por la gente con una vision de ministerio que el describia mejor que nadie: “Sin limite”. Esta edicion no solo incluye parte de los sermones escritos por John, sino tambien un prefacio y comentarios de su hijo, Joel; los principios de esta fe “sin limites” vienen a acompanar a una nueva generacion.
Para esos momentos de luchas y tentaciones que todos enfrentamos, esos momentos en que nos sentimos rodeados y atacados, el mensaje de John es sumamente simple -esos son precisamente los momentos para una fe inquebrantable.
En este libro, John ensena a los creyentes de hoy las siete cualidades de una fe inquebrantable:
1. Escucha y observa lo que el mundo no puede ver ni escuchar.
2. Ora fervientemente aunque ya hayas conseguido una respuesta.
3. Es mas firme cuando no hay senales de la respuesta.
4. Siempre dice: “!Vamos de nuevo!”.
5. Sigue adelante aunque las senales de respuesta sean minimas.
6. Cree en grande aunque parezca poco.
7. Empieza de la nada y termina haciendo cosas impresionantes por Dios.

8. Courage, Joy And CelebrationAdditional Info
Throughout history, Christians have been called by God to active engagement in society on behalf of the poor and oppressed. Christian leaders have been instrumental in caring for people who are poor, fighting injustice and advocating for social change. But they have never done so on their own power. Their energy and zeal were fueled by inner spiritual practices that propelled them forward into the world. Activist and historian Mae Elise Cannon explores the direct connection between Christians’ personal relationship with God and outward actions of kindness, mercy, compassion and advocacy. She looks at how notable Christian leaders were able to face societal challenges because of the rich depths of their spiritual practices. For example: Mother Teresa’s practice of silence compelled her to service.Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s prayer life equipped his discipleship.Martin Luther King Jr.’s beloved community empowered his proclamation.Oscar Romero’s discipline of submission prepared him to face martyrdom. Biographical profiles of these and other key figures from around the world give us concrete examples of how activism and advocacy can be sustained over the long haul.Cannon also describes modern-day activists who embody the synergy of faith and action, with practical lessons for our own lives. Find yourself spiritually transformed by these examples, and follow in their footsteps in just service to the world.

From Orphan To Physician
$14.95Add to cartHealthy Life Press
Those who do not know me that well know only that I graduated from Princeton and Harvard, and that I am the Chief of Cardiology and Assistant Physician-In-Chief of a medical center. Usually people are very surprised when I tell them I grew up in an orphanage…. As I reflect on my life, I can see many twists and turns.
The most comforting thing is that God chose me to be His child even before I knew Him. When I lost my earthly father, He stepped in to fill the void and become my heavenly Father. At different stages of my life, He sent different people to help me out. When I fell, He lifted me up. When I strayed from Him, He gently guided me back to the right path…. I want to share my life story with others not because I am rich and famous, or that I have anything of which I can boast, but because I am convinced that God has a perfect plan for each of us. There is a reason He allows all the twists and turns, crossroads and tunnels in each of our lives.

Excesses Of The Church
$18.99Add to cartThe Excesses of The Church: A Wake Up Call is an honest assessment of the journey of the Church. It tackles the manner that the Church has departed from Jesus’ purpose, drive, His deep intent for mankind and the Church. It cuts right through our delusion of grandeur when it comes to God and recounts how Christendom has hushed up and hidden its leprous state in clerical regalia. It clearly portrays how worldliness, exhibitionist and self serving ambitions have plagued us. It aims to salvage a few soldiers of the cross who will in turn catalyze the conscience and the heart of the world. The book educates and edifies readers while at the same time encouraging and challenging them as to the future of the Church in this world. This is the book that every concerned Christian would have liked to write. If the contents of this book fail to offend us and we become defensive then one thing is wrong with us, we are not yet ready for revival. However, if it convicts us to change our ways then this book will have achieved its purpose. Colin Warambwa MD Walter Senah lives in Harare, Zimbabwe with his wife Febi and their children Takudzwa, Tariro and Chiedza. Walter is a graduate of Logos International Graduate School, Florida, USA. He has served in various Church leadership capacities and Pastoral roles from his twenties. He also has a Masters Degree and has worked extensively in the areas of Finance, Management and Auditing.

Boundless Blessings And Gods Grace
$13.95Add to cartPeople Cynthia encountered on her breast cancer journey profoundly changed her perspective on life. They were varied ages and came from different circumstances, but the common thread they had was the fear when hearing the word “cancer.” Often she was a reluctant participant during her walk, knowing she had no choice if she intended to win her battle. She encouraged others with her smile, positive attitude, words, and actions.
Cynthia understands that within each of us is a fighting spirit, and hopefully, a recognition that we are not in total control of our lives; God is, and he will determine our passage from this world. Until then, we need to accept the difficulties that we encounter in our lives with dignity, grace, determination, and knowing that God is constantly by our side.
With the incredible support and prayers of an army of compassionate people, and God’s grace and blessings, Cynthia is a breast cancer survivor today!

Hope Unseen : The Story Of The US Armys First Blind Active Duty Officer
$18.99Add to cartA nervous glance from a man in a parked car. Muted instincts from a soldier on patrol. Violent destruction followed by total darkness. Two weeks later, Scotty Smiley woke up in Walter Reed Army Medical Center, helpless . . . and blind.
Blindness became Scotty’s journey of supreme testing. As he lay helpless in the hospital, Captain Smiley resented the theft of his dreams-becoming a CEO, a Delta Force operator, or a four-star general.
With his wife Tiffany’s love and the support of his family and friends, Scotty was transformed-the injury only intensifying his indomitable spirit. Since the moment he jumped out of a hospital bed and forced his way through nurses and cords to take a simple shower, Captain Scotty Smiley has climbed Mount Rainier, won an ESPY as Best Outdoor Athlete, surfed, skydived, become a father, earned an MBA from Duke, taught leadership at West Point, commanded an army company, and won the MacArthur Leadership Award.
Scotty and Tiffany Smiley have lived out a faith so real that it will inspire you to question your own doubts, push you to serve something bigger than yourself, and encourage you to cling to a Hope Unseen.
