Exploring The Way Participants Book (Student/Study Guide)
$11.99
Do you have a deep longing for something more? It may be something you can’t explain, but you have moral yearnings and visionary dreams that nothing has satisfied.
You’re not alone. Even people “raised” in a Christian church can feel disconnected from – and even repelled by – what should be a comforting, constant presence in their lives. It’s why so many people today proclaim themselves “spiritual but not religious.” But what does that mean? Exactly what’s meant by the spiritual journey?
Exploring the Way will help you understand and deepen your experience of God. You’ll be able to ask the questions of issues and faith in a safe place. You’ll discover (or rediscover) a way of grace, joy, and peace – indeed, the way of Christ himself.
Ideal for the novice and veteran alike, this book defines and explains the most basic concepts and language of the Christian spiritual life: prayer, the Bible’s message for our lives today, spiritual gifts, listening, journaling, and much more. It’s the ultimate six-week orientation to spirituality and the essential elements of faith.
Stories, scripture, and exercises in each chapter will help connect your beliefs with daily experiences. Through independent and group study, you’ll establish a rhythm of daily time with God, weekly time in Christian community, and a lifelong attentiveness to possibilities for serving the world.
“To become a spiritual adventurer means learning to listen for the voice of God,” writes the author. “This listening involves a certain level of risk and vulnerability that does not come easily. …[But] we cannot fully rest until we find our way back to the place of our soul’s origin, back to the Love that gave us life.”
Feed your hungry soul, using both your head and your heart while rejuvenating your own spiritual journey home!

Mere Christianity
$17.99Arguably the 20th century’s most influential Christian writer, C.S. Lewis sought to explain and defend the beliefs that nearly all Christians at all times hold in common. His simple yet deeply profound classic, originally delivered as a series of radio broadcasts, is a book to be thoroughly digested by believers and generously shared with skeptics. Paperback with French f laps and deckled page edges.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$25.99The women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.

Problem Of Pain
$17.99For centuries Christians have been tormented by one question above all — If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain? C. S. Lewis sets out to disentangle this knotty issue but wisely adds that in the end no intellectual solution can dispense with the necessity for patience and courage.
