What narratives have molded and nurtured Mennonites? What stories have the power to reshape and transform? These 28 stories reveal Mennonites’ core values, who they are and want to be. The writers present an array of accounts: Peacemaking Native Americans, pioneer life, revolution in Russia, migration, optimistic David Toews, Annie Funk on the Titanic, a near hanging in Kansas, Orie Miller, dismantling racism, Emma Richards, Marilyn Miller, Mesach Krisetya, searching for Clayton Kratz, and more.
In this book Mennonites from varied backgrounds and experiences are pooling their stories. Ordinary people draw together in heart and mind, sharing events that mark their life and faith, and showing how God works in extraordinary ways.
God has redeemed the church and endowed it with a rich heritage of faithfulness. As agents of transformation, God’s people can translate this legacy into a vibrant witness.

This small group study expands viewpoints, overcomes stereotypes, and models how to really love people like Jesus does. The Pastor’s Kit includes everything needed to plan a six-week teaching series around the concepts presented in the Small Group Study. It includes:
Special video message for pastors
Video guide for implementing a church-wide program

Great Divorce
$17.99Add to cartC.S. Lewis takes us on a profound journey through both heaven and hell in this engaging allegorical tale. Using his extraordinary descriptive powers, Lewis introduces us to supernatural beings who will change the way we think about good and evil. In The Great Divorce C.S. Lewis again employs his formidable talent for fable and allegory. The writer, in a dream, finds himself in a bus which travels between Hell and Heaven. This is the starting point for an extraordinary meditation upon good and evil which takes issue with William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.
