Question That Never Goes Away
$18.99Add to cartFinding Meaning in the Midst of Suffering
In his classic book Where Is God When It Hurts, Philip Yancey gave us permission to doubt, reasons not to abandon faith, and practical ways to reach out to hurting people.And now, thirty years after writing his first book, Yancey revisits our cry of “Why, God” in three places stunned into silence by the calamities that have devastated them. At some point all of us will face the challenges to faith Yancey writes about and look for the comfort and hope he describes.
There are reasons to ask, once again, the question that never goes away: Where is God when we suffer? And Yancey, once again, leads us to find faith when it is most severely put to the test.

Escandalo Del Perdon – (Spanish)
$9.99Add to cartCon nuevo material escrito solo para este libro y adaptaciones de su clasico, Gracia divina vs. condena humana, el exitoso autor Philip Yancey presenta una mirada unica al perdon: lo que es… por que es tan dificil… por que tenemos que elegir este acto antinatural y escandaloso… y por que debemos acercarnos a Dios una y otra vez, entregandole el residuo de lo que pensamos que le habiamos confiado hace mucho tiempo.
El perdon es un acto antinatural. Tal vez por eso el perdon es tan dificil. Entonces, por que iba Dios a exigirnos un acto que desafia todo instinto primal? Que hace que el perdon sea tan importante como para que sea un elemento central de la fe cristiana? Lo hacemos porque el Evangelio deja clara la conexion: Dios perdona nuestras deudas como nosotros perdonamos a nuestros deudores. Lo contrario tambien es cierto: solo viviendo en la corriente del perdon de Dios encontraremos la fuerza para responder con perdon a los demas.
Podemos hablar de perdon a menudo, incluso creyendo que somos una persona que perdona, pero entendemos la verdadera profundidad y lo que exige de nosotros? Lo proclama nuestra vida con tanta fuerza como nuestras palabras? No debemos hacernos ilusiones sobre el perdon, ya que puede ser el acto mas exigente en las relaciones humanas, lo mas dificil que jamas hayamos hecho. Pero para cualquiera que vive y ama imperfectamente, en otras palabras, para todos nosotros, el perdon ofrece una alternativa a un ciclo interminable de resentimiento y venganza.
Solo eso puede liberarnos. Los cristianos pueden y deben revelar el perdon que el mundo busca. Un cese al fuego entre los seres humanos comienza con el perdon: el comienzo y el final de la gracia.
The Scandal of Forgiveness
Containing new material written just for this book and adaptations from his classic, What’s So Amazing About Grace, bestselling author Philip Yancey presents a one of a kind look at forgiveness: what it is… why it is so difficult… why we have to choose this unnatural, scandalous act… and why we must approach God again and again, yielding to Him the residue of what we thought we had committed to him long ago.
Forgiveness is an unnatural act. That may be why forgiveness is so difficult. So why would God require us to perform an act that defies every primal instinct? What makes forgiveness so important that it is central to the Christian faith? We do so because the Gospel makes clear the connection: God forgives our debts as we forgive

Whats So Amazing About Grace Participants Guide Updated Edition (Student/Study G
$13.99Add to cartIn this six-session revised and updated video Bible study, bestselling author Philip Yancey explores the concept of grace-the one thing the world cannot duplicate and the one thing it craves above all else-and explores what it looks like in action. He also examines how Christians, as the sole dispensers, are doing at lavishing the grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy.
As Yancey explains, true grace is shocking and scandalous, for God does not excuse sin but always treasures the sinner. God always extends his grace to individuals regardless of what they have done-for no one is unforgiveable in his eyes. Grace thus shakes our conventions with its insistence on getting close to sinners and touching them with mercy and hope. It forgives the unfaithful spouse, the racist, the child abuser. It loves today’s AIDS-ridden addict as much as the tax collector of Jesus’ day.
Yancey offers compelling and true portraits of grace’s life-changing power. He searches for its presence in his own life and in the church. He asks how Christians today can contend graciously with moral issues that threaten all they hold dear. And he challenges each of us to become living answers to a world that desperately wants to know, “what’s so amazing about grace.”

Vanishing Grace : Bringing Good News To A Deeply Divided World
$19.99Add to cartChristians have proclaimed the good news about Jesus for centuries. But the good news isn’t sounding so good these days, at least to some. More and more surveys show that people view Christians as bearers of bad news, judgment, and intolerance.
In Vanishing Grace, bestselling author Philip Yancey acknowledges the problem and then explores how we can respond with both grace and truth. He offers a discerning look at what contributes to a hostility toward Christians, and identifies three groups–pilgrims, artists, and activists–who can show us a different way.
With a reporter’s eye and a compassionate heart, Yancey suggests practical ways in which we can live as salt and light within a society that is radically changing. What can we learn from those who shun church but consider themselves spiritual? Can the good news, once spoiled, ever sound good again?
As Yancey writes, “Like a sudden thaw in the middle of winter, grace happens at unexpected moments. It stops us short, catches the breath, disarms…. Yet not everyone has tasted of that amazing grace, and not everyone believes in it. In a time of division and discord, grace seems in vanishing supply. Why? And what can we do about it?”
In the wake of recent events–Las Vegas, Charlottesville, Charleston, Ferguson, Islamic terrorism–people both inside and outside the church are thirsty for grace. Vanishing Grace calls us to see their thirst, and ours, in a hopeful new light as we listen, love, and offer a grace that is truly good news.

Church Why Bother
$14.99Add to cartInsights from Philip Yancey’s personal pilgrimage away from and back to the church. Why are there so many more professing Christians than churchgoing Christians? Is it because something is wrong with the church? In his candid, thought-provoking manner, award-winning author Philip Yancey reveals the reasons behind his own journey back from skepticism to wholehearted participation in the church, and weighs the church’s human failings against its compelling worth as the body of Christ. Yancey does not whitewash the church’s faults, rather he sets them against the overwhelming balance of its strengths: its heart for God, its care for the hurting, its outreach to the lost, and its value as family and community.

Disappointment With God
$19.99Add to cartPhilip Yancey has a gift for articulating the knotty issues of faith. In Disappointment with God, he poses three questions that Christians wonder but seldom ask aloud: Is God unfair? Is he silent? Is he hidden? This insightful and deeply personal book points to the odd differences between our concept of God and the realities of life. Why, if God is so hungry for relationship with us, does he seem so distant? Why, if he cares for us, do bad things happen? What can we expect from him after all? Yancey answers these questions with clarity, depth, and biblical assurance. He takes us beyond the things that disillusion us and prevent us from experiencing a deeper faith, the certainty of God’s love, and the thirst to reach not just for what God gives, but for who he is. This edition of the book comes with study questions for every chapter.

Vanishing Grace Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Add to cartWhy does the church stir up such negative feelings? Philip Yancey has been asking this all his life as a journalist. His perennial question is more relevant now than ever: research shows that favorable opinions of Christianity have plummeted drastically—and opinions of Evangelicals have taken even deeper dives. Yet while opinions about Christianity are dropping, interest in spirituality is rising. Why the disconnect? Why are so many asking, “What’s so good about the Good News?” In Vanishing Grace, Yancey shows the desperate need our world has for grace, and how Christians can truly make the gospel good news again. In this video-based small group Bible study, participants will explore what kind of news is good to a culture that thinks it has rejected the Christian version. Wading deep into the transformative power of grace, they will hear illuminating stories of how faith can be expressed in ways that disarm even the most cynical. This participant guide is designed for use with the 6-session Vanishing Grace DVD (sold separately).

Oracion (Revised) – (Spanish) (Revised)
$19.99Add to cartQue es la oracion? Como opera? Y el punto mas importante: Sirve para algo? En teoria, la oracion es el hecho humano esencial, el punto de contacto mas valioso entre nosotros y el Dios del universo. En la practica, la oracion a menudo es frustrante, confusa y llena de misterios. La Oracion Hace alguna diferencia? explora el lugar misterioso donde Dios y el ser humano se encuentran y se relacionan.
Yancey comparte sus inquietudes y plantea preguntas tales como:
* Estara escuchando Dios?
* Por que habria de interesarse Dios en mi?
* Si Dios conoce todas las cosas, que sentido tiene la oracion?
* Por que las respuestas a la oracion parecen ser tan arbitrarias y caprichosas?
* Por que a veces Dios parece estar tan cerca de mi y otras veces tan lejano?
* Como puedo hacer para orar mas?He descubierto que el proposito mas importante de la oracion tal vez sea dejar que Dios nos ame, dice Yancey. Este libro nos anima a orar a Dios el Padre, que sabe que nos deparara el futuro, que conoce nuestras fibras mas intimas, y que nos invita a consolidar nuestra relacion eterna con el por medio de la oracion.
Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference?
What is prayer? How does it work? And more importantly, does it work? In theory, prayer is the essential human act, a priceless point of contact between us and the God of the universe. In practice, prayer is often frustrating, confusing, and fraught with mystery. La Oracion Hace alguna diferencia? is an exploration of the mysterious intersection where God and humans meet and relate.Writing as a fellow pilgrim, Yancey explores such questions as:
* Is God listening?
* Why should God care about me?
* If God knows everything, what’s the point of prayer?
* Why do answers to prayer seem so inconsistent and capricious?
* Why does God seem sometimes close and sometimes far away?
* How can I make prayer more satisfying?“I have found that the most important purpose of prayer may be to let ourselves be loved by God,” says Yancey. La Oracion Hace alguna diferencia? encourages us to pray to God the Father who sees what lies ahead of us, knows what lies within us, and who invites us into an eternal partnership-through prayer.

Alcanzando Al Dios Invisible – (Spanish)
$16.99Add to cart“How do I relate to a God who is invisible when I’m never quite sure he’s there?” –Philip Yancey Life with God doesn’t always work like we thought. High expectations slam against the reality of personal weaknesses and unwelcome surprises. And the God whom we’ve been told, longs for our company may seem remote and emotionally unavailable. Is God playing games? What can we count on this God for? This relationship with a God we can’t see, hear, or touch–how does it really work? Reaching for the Invisible God offers deep, satisfying insights that affirm and dignify the questions we’re sometimes afraid to ask. In this Gold Medallion Award-winning book, Philip Yancey explores six foundational areas: our thirst for God, faith during times when God seems unavailable, the nature of God himself, our personal relationship with God, stages along the way, and the end goal of spiritual transformation. Honest and deeply personal, here is straight talk on Christian living for the man or woman who wants more than pat answers to life’s imponderables. Ultimately, Yancey shifts the focus from our questions to the One who offers himself in answer. The God who invites us to reach for him–and find.

Rumors Of Another World
$22.99Add to cartWhat on earth are we missing? Philip Yancey believes we are missing the supernatural hidden in everyday life. In Rumors of Another World, Yancey investigates the natural world and discovers the supernatural hiding in plain view. He grapples with why God made the world and what our role truly is, and seeks to answer the question, “How do I live in the natural world while expressing the values of the supernatural?” Philip writes, “I have come to understand faith as the highest form of integrated encounter. Faith puts together, assembles, re-orders, accepting the entire world as God’s handiwork. We live among clues, like rescuers sifting through pieces of stained glass shattered by a bomb, and only with a blueprint or some memory of original design can we begin to connect the shards, to assemble them into a pattern that makes sense of our world. “Nature and supernature are not two separate worlds, but different expressions of the same reality. To encounter the world as a whole, we need a more supernatural awareness of the natural world.” Yancey invites readers to join him on a journey of discovery. He challenges us to tune into “rumors of another world,” and connect the seen with the unseen. He promises that the grace-filled result will be a life of beauty, purpose, freedom, and faith.

Biblia Que Leyo Jesus – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartPhilip Yancey has a way of confronting our most cherished but misguided notions about faith. In The Bible Jesus Read, he challenges the perception that the New Testament is all that matters and the Old Testament isn’t worth taking the time to read and understand. Yancey admits that, like many Christians, he usually avoided the Old Testament. After all, why bother with writings that can be so baffling, boring, even offensive to the modern mind? But a surprising discovery awaited Yancey when he began to explore how the Old Testament related to his life today. Those seemingly irrelevant Hebrew Scriptures took on a startling immediacy, portraying a passionate relationship between God and people against the broad backdrop of human experience. Like nothing else, the Old Testament depicts the cries, the complaints, the deep, insistent questionings of the heart, the stuff of life we all must contend with. With his candid, signature style, Yancey interacts with the Old Testament from the perspective of his own deeply personal journey. From Moses, the amazing prince of Egypt, to the psalmists’ turbulent emotions and the prophets’ oddball rantings, Yancey paints a picture of Israel’s God–and ours–that fills in the blanks of a solely New Testament vision of the Almighty. Probing some carefully selected Old Testament books–Job, Deuteronomy, Psalms, Ecclesiastes, and the Prophets–Yancey reveals how the Old Testament deals in astonishing depth and detail with the issues that trouble us most. The Old Testament in fact tackles what the New Testament often only skirts. But that shouldn’t surprise us. It is, after all, the Bible Jesus read. The Bible Jesus Read will give you abundant new insights into the heart of God the Father. And as you read with a fresh eye the prayers, poems, songs, and bedtime stories that Jesus so revered, you will gain a profound new understanding of Christ. “The more we comprehend the Old Testament,” Yancey writes, “the more we comprehend Jesus.”

Reaching For The Invisible God
$19.99Add to cartIn Disappointment With God, Philip Yancey explored how we frequently have false expectations of God and the way he interacts with us and the world. Now he looks at the situation from the other side, asking “How do we relate to a God who is invisible, when we are never quite sure he is there?” With his unflinching determination to explore truth, Yancey investigates how we communicate with an invisible God. He probes an area of faith where theology and personal experience often oppose each other and searches out workable ways for Christians to grow into what he calls “childlike maturity.”

Where Is God When It Hurts (Anniversary)
$19.99Add to cart“If there is a loving God, then why…?” No matter how the question is completed, at its root lies the issue of pain. Does God order suffering? Or did he simply wind up the world’s mainspring and now is watching from a distance? In this Gold Medallion Award-winning book, Philip Yancey reveals a God who is neither capricious nor unconcerned. Using examples from the Bible and from his own experiences, Yancey looks at pain–physical, emotional, and spiritual–and helps us understand why we suffer.

Jesus I Never Knew
$19.99Add to cartAn old adage says, “God created man in His own image and man has been returning the favor ever since.” Philip Yancey realized that despite a lifetime attending Sunday school topped off by a Bible college education, he really had no idea who Jesus was. In fact, he found himself further and further removed from the person of Jesus, distracted instead by flannel-graph figures and intellectual inspection. He determined to use his journalistic talents to approach Jesus, in the context of time, within the framework of history.
In The Jesus I Never Knew, Yancey explores the life of Jesus, as he explains, “‘from below,’ to grasp as best I can what it must have been like to observe in person the extraordinary events unfolding in Galilee and Judea” as Jesus traveled and taught. Yancey examines three fundamental questions: who Jesus was, why he came, and what he left behind. Step by step, scene by scene, Yancey probes the culture into which Jesus was born and grew to adulthood; his character and mission; his teachings and miracles; his legacy–not just as history has told it, but as he himself intended it to be.Yancey is not alone in his examination of the “real” Jesus. Publishing today is replete with writers committed to setting the story “straight,quot; joining countless others who, over the past 2,000 years, have determined to discover the truth about Jesus. But where others would deconstruct and discount, Yancey disarms and discloses. We become colleagues with him as he examines the accounts of the life of Jesus. And among the things that we discover is that Jesus himself leaves us few options: either he was who he said he was or he was nuts.
Philip Yancey was awarded the Gold Medallion Christian Book of the Year award for this book in 1996 by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association. It’s not the first, nor the last, award Yancey has won for his writing. But the writing is not necessarily the great gift of this book. Yancey allows the reader to discover, along with him, The Jesus I Never Knew.

Gracia Divina VS Condena Human – (Spanish)
$18.99Add to cartIn 1987, an IRA bomb buried Gordon Wilson and his twenty-year-old daughter beneath five feet of rubble. Godon alone survived. And forgave. He said of the bombers, “I have lost my daughter, but I bear no grudge…I shall pray, tonight and every night, that God will forgive them.” His words caught the media’s ears_and out of one man’s grief, the world got a glimpse of grace. Grace is the church’s great distinction. It’s the one thing the world cannot duplicate, and the one thing it craves above all else_for only grace can bring hope and transformation to a jaded world. In this book award-winning author Philip Yancey explores grace at street level. If grace is God’s love for the undeserving, he asks, then what does it look like in action? And if Christians are its sole dispensers, then how are we doing at lavishing grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy? Grace does not excuse sin, say Yancey, but it treasures the sinner. True grace is shocking, scandalous. It shakes our conventions with its insistence on getting close to sinners and touching them with mercy and hope.

THE GIFT OF PAIN
A world without pain?Can such a place exist? It not only can-it does. But it’s no utopia. It’s a colony for leprosy patients: a world where people literally feel no pain, and reap horrifying consequences.
His work with leprosy patients in India and the United States convinced Dr. Paul Brand that pain truly is one of God’s great gifts to us. In this inspiring story of his fifty-year career as a healer, Dr. Brand probes the mystery of pain and reveals its importance. As an indicator that lets us know something is wrong, pain has a value that becomes clearest in its absence.
The Gift of Pain looks at what pain is and why we need it. Together, the renowned surgeon and award-winning writer Philip Yancey shed fresh light on a gift that none of us want and none of us can do without.
