Peter Effect : Rock Solid Faith
$16.49
Look for God in your life today! See where you are when you see Him. Think about who you are with when you see Him. What are you doing when you see Him? The challenge may be to see where you are when you hear His voice. Who are you with when you hear His voice? What are you doing when you hear His voice?
Ryan Keim experienced a terrifying event: being first on the scene of a dreadful car wreck that he and his children might easily have been part of. Looking back, he examines his feelings and reactions to the incident with the perspective of what he has learned from the faith of the apostle Peter as described in Matthew 14-the story of Jesus walking on water.
Peter stepped out in confidence and in trust; he had complete faith in God’s ability to allow him to walk to Him on water.
But the world intruded, as the world so often does. The frantic pace of today’s life makes it hard to slow down and actually see, though doing so, Keim explains, is critical to a believer’s successful life.
Peter slowed down to understand what was going on around him. If this mindset change had not happened, he would have drowned, swam back to the boat, or even cried out to the others for their help…Although he allowed the world around him to come back into his mind for a split second, he still cried out to Jesus…He cried out for Him, and like always, Jesus was there reaching out to help His child.
The nature of Peter’s faith in this story is an example of the Christian life. Ryan Keim has been where Peter was. Everyone, at some point, has been. Maintain focus on God, The Peter Effect declares, always.

Person Of Interest
$24.99Add to cartDateline featured cold-case detective and best-selling author J. Warner Wallace investigates Jesus, the most significant person in history, like one of his “missing body, cold-cases,” demonstrating why Jesus still matters today, even in a world that is skeptical of the Bible.
Detective J. Warner Wallace listened to a pastor talk about Jesus and wondered why anyone would think Jesus was a person of interest.
Wallace was skeptical of the Bible, but he’d investigated several “no-body, missing person” cases in which there was no crime scene, no physical evidence, and no victim’s body. He successfully identified and convicted the killers in these cases, even without evidence from the scene.
Could the historical life and actions of Jesus be investigated in the same way? Could the truth about Jesus be uncovered even without a body or a crime scene? In Person of Interest, Wallace describes his own personal investigative journey from atheism to Christianity, as he employs a unique investigative strategy to confirm the historicity and deity of Jesus–without relying on the New Testament manuscripts.
Imagining a scenario in which every New Testament document has been destroyed, Wallace carefully sifts through the evidence from history alone to reconstruct the identity of Jesus as the world’s most important person of interest.
Person of Interest will:
*Invite readers into the life of a cold-case detective as he uncovers the truth about Jesus, using the same approach he also employs to solve a real murder case*Teach readers how to become good detectives, using an innovative and unique “‘fuse’ and ‘fallout'” investigative strategy they can also use to examine other claims of history
*Show how Jesus changed the world and why He still matters today
*Help readers to explore common objections to Christianity
Creative, compelling, and unique in its approach, Person of Interest will strengthen the faith of believers, while engaging those who are skeptical and distrusting of the New Testament.
