He Is Our Peace More Beautiful Than Words Set Of 2 Notepads
Gathering At Gods Table
$27.99
A profound reminder of our role in the larger frame of God s dream for a restored and reconciled world.
In the Christian tradition, believers are called to do more than sit around and pray. Throughout the Gospel and throughout history people of faith have been quite literally booted out into the world to bring God s love to everybody, not just a selected few. That s the meaning of mission from the Latin missio, it means simply to send out. Understood in this sense, mission is at the heart of a faithful life.
Katharine Jefferts Schori s new book explores the meaning of mission in the context of contemporary life. It is organized around the Anglican Communion s Five Marks of Mission: proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God; teach, baptize, and nurture new believers; respond to human need with loving service; transform unjust structures of society; and care for the earth.
Jefferts Schori emphasizes the ecumenical networks that work to send God s love out into the world. As she insists, mission is not inwardly focused, but reaches out to the whole of creation.

Love Stories Of The Bible Speak
$30.00The Bible is full of “love” stories. But the Biblical idea of love is so much bigger than we imagine.
Love is at the heart of the Bible. From the moment Adam declared Eve “flesh of my flesh”…to the sacrificial love of Joseph for Mary…to the deep friendship of David and Jonathan…to the abounding and never-changing love of God: The Bible is a love story. But it also redefines the way the world tells us we should think about love.
The Bible reveals not just butterflies and broken hearts. In Scripture, we see God’s beautiful design for the partnership of marriage. We witness friendships that cross all boundaries. We watch as families navigate the many seasons of life. Our guiding example for them all is the deepest, most abiding, foundational love ever known: God’s unconditional love for His people.
In The Love Stories of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream draws lessons from the good, the bad, and the ugly of Biblical romances, friendships, and families. She shows how God’s love is often very different from ours, turning upside down our assumptions about life, relationships, and each other.
The Love Stories of the Bible Speak reminds us that, no matter where we find ourselves, God’s unwavering love will sustain and guide us. These insights into biblical relationships will uplift and encourage you, and reveal new dimensions to the most central Christian duty: to love God and your neighbor.
