Weakness Of God
$14.99
The Weakness of God examines the character of Jesus Christ’s life as a man and how his life relates in comparison to today’s Christian men. The book touches on the fallacy of the so-called “macho mentality” prevalent in men. It answers the misconception of Jesus being a passive and docile man at all times. Gospel accounts of Jesus contending with religious groups such as the Pharisees are noted and discussed. Each chapter illustrates a quality of Jesus as a pattern for believers to follow. The book shows Jesus as an emotional and sensitive man who exhibited moments of crying. It reveals how crying and prayers will touch the heart of God and rebuts the myth that man should not cry. It tells why Christian men should shun the worldly attitudes of today and conform to the attributes of Jesus. It explains the compassionate Christ’s regard for the weak and his defense of women’s rights. It demonstrates how men are to be benevolent leaders in the home and the church. It explains mutual submission in the marriage relationship. This is an informative, relevant book that espouses the issues that affect Christians today and provides biblical answers in living a fulfilled life in Christ.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak
$26.99God always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
