Escribir una biografia es una tarea compleja para intentar dibujar en unas pocas hojas con palabras la vida de alguien, y tarea complicada cuando hay poca informacion documental y testimonial del biografiado. Pero analizar la vida de un personaje del cual existe tanta informacion, como el caso de Carlos H. Spurgeon, probablemente complique mas la situacion. Tenemos sus decenas de libros (cerca de 200 entre escritos y editados), sus miles de sermones, sus decenas de articulos de revistas, sus diarios, sus cartas, una enorme biografia escrita por su esposa y su secretario, y, literalmente, cientos de trabajos biograficos y criticos de toda extension imaginable sobre este personaje. Podriamos decir, de forma muy coloquial, que a “Spurgeon se le puede encontrar hasta en la sopa”.

*Sus otros ministeriosTe invitamos a emprender esta aventura inolvidable para conocer la vida de Carlos H. Spurgeon, el cual debe estar entre las biografias que no te puedes dar el lujo de no conocer.
Charles Spurgeon’s Biography
This book by Juan Carlos de la Cruz, on the Biography of Charles Spurgeon, his ministerial life and the most remarkable events of his more than four decades.
Writing a biography is a complex task to try to draw someone’s life on words, and complicated task when there is little documentary and testimonial biographical information. But, analyzing the life of a character of which there is so much information, such as the case of Carlos H. Spurgeon, probably complicates the situation further. We have dozens of his books (about 200 between writings and edits), thousands of his sermons, dozens of his magazine articles, his diaries, his letters, a huge biography written by his wife and his secretary, and literally hundreds of biographical works and critics of every imaginable extension of that character. We could say in a very colloquial way
Ultima Palabra – (Spanish)
$15.99Add to cartEste libro es un crudo relato autobiografico que se asemeja al bestseller internacional La cruz y el pual.
Casey Diaz llego a este pais cuando tenia dos aos, siendo el hijo mayor de inmigrantes salvadoreos que se establecieron en los suburbios del centro de Los Angeles en la decada de 1970. Un padre abusivo que golpeaba constantemente a su madre arrastro a Casey a las pandillas callejeras a la edad de once aos. Escalo rapidamente dentro de los Rockwood Street Locos y participo en invasiones a hogares, robo de automoviles y en el apualamiento de sus rivales, muchas veces con tan solo un destornillador o un cuchillo.
A los dieciseis fue arrestado y sentenciado a casi trece aos en una prision estatal por asesinato en segundo grado, y recibio cincuenta y dos cargos por robo. Al cabo de dos aos fue enviado a la Prision Estatal de New Folsom y puesto en confinamiento solitario durante veintitres horas al dia.
Cuando una mujer mayor de color, que servia en el ministerio carcelario, se acerca a su celda y le dice que Jesus lo ama y que Dios lo va a usar algun dia, Casey se burla de ella. Entonces, un dia ocurre un hecho milagroso en su celda. Al igual que una pelicula, ve su vida “proyectada” en la pared de la celda. Se ve a si mismo como un pequeo nio en su antiguo barrio, y luego observa sus primeros dias en las escenas de las bandas, hechos que solo el podia recordar. Luego ve a un hombre de pelo largo que carga una cruz, y una multitud que le grita. El es clavado en la cruz y colocado entre otros dos condenados a muerte. El hombre de la cruz lo mira y le dice: “Estoy haciendo esto por ti.”
Casey golpea el piso de la celda y llora. Sabe que es el Dios Todopoderoso quien le esta hablando. Confiesa sus muchos pecados y expresa un profundo remordimiento. Cuando termina, escucha que Dios le indica que solicite ver a un capellan. Despues de escuchar la historia de Casey, el capellan saca su Biblia y le lee la historia de la crucifixion; le explica el plan de Dios para la salvacion, algo que Casey acepta.
Este libro es tanto una mirada dentro del violento mundo de las pandillas y la vida en la prision, como una demostracion poderosa y real de como Dios ira a los extremos mas milagrosos para alcanzar incluso a los peores pecadores. Hoy, Casey Diaz se levanta como un trofeo de la gloriosa gracia de Dios.

“Because the church members are seeing the spiritual realm, I will be condemned as a heretic. There will be a great test. But because it’s the will of God to see the spiritual realm, I have no other choice but to go the way we are going.”My Life, My Faith II is composed of previously published memoirs that have been put together for this book. In this part II of his autobiography, Dr. Jaerock Lee discusses events that he has experienced as a minister. Through his prayers, he has seen miraculous healings.
Dr. Lee has also had to experience the pain of being slandered and attacked. Praying for his accusers and suffering from the betrayal of some who were close to him, he managed to overcome the pain. His words and actions show that he is a man that is led by the Holy Spirit.

“Surprised, my wife looked my body over completely, and she also had to believe that God had healed me. She was so happy and hugged me, and began to weep loudly. We wept for a long time.”Because Dr. Lee himself suffered from so many kinds of diseases, he understands the pain of those who are sick. Because he himself was despised and mocked, he understands the heart of those who are heartbroken. Because he experienced severe poverty, he understands the heart of those who are suffering from the heavy load of poverty. That is why thousands of his church members gather around him just to see him face to face.
Dr. Lee’s life is one of the most dramatic cases in which one’s life can change so much before and after knowing God. His life shows us how a life of complete obedience to God and complete devotion can bear so much fruit spiritually and materially.

As a rare Hispanic woman in a sea of suits and ties, she beat all the odds.

In MY (UNDERGROUND) AMERICAN DREAM, Arce opens up about the true price of pursuing the American Dream. In telling her personal story of sacrifice, pain, and suffering, Arce shifts the immigration conversation, and changes the perception of what it means to be an undocumented immigrant.

Buscando A Ala Encontrando A J – (Spanish)
$13.99Add to cartEn Buscando a Ala, encontrando a Jesus, Nabeel Qureshi, quien fuera devoto musulman, describe su dramatico peregrinar del Islam al cristianismo, y con el, todas las amistades, investigaciones, suenos y visiones que fue encontrando por el camino. Muchos occidentales estan confundidos acerca del Islam, les tienen algo de temor a los musulmanes, o sencillamente no estan informados acerca de la relacion que existe entre la fe islamica y la cristiana. A su vez, a muchos musulmanes, una serie de barreras culturales, intelectuales y teologicas les impiden comprender, o incluso escuchar correctamente, el evangelio de Jesucristo. A lo largo de su historia, Qureshi nos presenta una apologetica compasiva, pero poderosa a favor del cristianismo sobre el Islam, enfatizando las relaciones y el amor. Los apendices aportados por eruditos y expertos populares les dan mas informacion a los musulmanes para que la analicen, y a los cristianos para que la consulten en sus discusiones espirituales con sus amigos musulmanes. Fascinante como relato y util como recurso apologetico, Buscando a Ala, encontrando a Jesus, les presenta a los lectores una poderosa historia sobre el choque entre el Islam y el cristianismo dentro del corazon de un hombre, y sobre la paz que termino hallando en Jesus.
Sacada Del Polvo – (Spanish)
$13.99Add to cartNo desperdicies tu dolor,”” dice Avis Goodhart, autora del libro: “‘Sacada del Polvo: Alguien poco probable para ser misionera’. Ella no lo desperdicio – y tu tampoco deberias hacerlo.” A pesar de un trasfondo de abuso infantil, dislexia e infidelidad matrimonial, Avis realizo su primer viaje internacional de misiones a la edad de cincuenta anos. La Iglesia, la Escuela y el Orfanato que ella fundo en el norte del Peru, fue el resultado tanto de su dolor como de su obediencia radical al Senor, sacando del polvo a miles de personas. Esta convincente historia es de una mujer comun y corriente, quien sirve a Dios de una manera extraordinaria. Ella te desafiara, te inspirara y te empoderara para que: Elimines las excusas en tu vida. Reconozcas que en el Reino de Dios, la disponibilidad importa mas que la habilidad. Permitas que tu dolor te conduzca a la obediencia. Sirvas al Senor con la misma pasion mostrada por una misionera poco probable.
“Don’t waste your pain,” says unlikely missionary Avis Goodhart. She didn’t – and neither should you. Despite a background of childhood abuse, dyslexia, and marital infidelity, Avis took her first international mission trip at age fifty. The church, school, and orphanage she later founded in northern Peru, all products of both her pain and her radical obedience to the Lord, have brought thousands of others out of the dust. This compelling story of an ordinary woman who serves God in extraordinary ways will challenge, inspire, and empower you to: * Eliminate excuses from your life * Recognize that in God’s kingdom, availability matters more than ability * Allow your pain to produce – not prevent – your obedience * Serve the Lord with the same abandon shown by one unlikely missionary
Drucker Y Yo – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartIn 1982 a young, ambitious East Texas entrepreneur, whose business is growing at double-digit rates, decides there must be more to life. So, oddly enough, he writes a letter to the man whose books he most treasures-Peter F. Drucker, father of modern management theory and practice. As they meet over the years, Buford sees that “Drucker is to management what Shakespeare is to literature.” Their relationship progresses from paid consultant to mentor to close friend.
Drucker & Me tells how two men discover a mutual passion and strategy that will literally change the world. Their disappointment with corporate America leads them to embrace the non-profit sector, including one of the most important developments in the last 30 years-the megachurch movement. Believing non-profit organizations change lives, they begin work with Rick Warren, Bill Hybels, and others to design a new management model for non-profits in the twenty-first century.

$17.99Add to cartThis historic work reveals the inner spiritual life of one of the most beloved and important religious figures in history.
Available for the first time in Spanish! This historic work reveals the inner spiritual life of one of the most beloved and important religious figures in history.
During her lifelong service to the poorest of the poor, Mother Teresa became an icon of compassion to people of all religions. Her extraordinary contributions to the care of the sick, the dying, and thousands of others nobody else was prepared to look after has been recognized and acclaimed throughout the world. Little is known, however, about her own spiritual heights or struggles. This collection of her writing and reflections, almost all of which have never been made public before, sheds light on Mother Teresa’s interior life in a way that reveals the depth and intensity of her holiness for the first time.
Compiled and presented by Fr. Brian Kolodiejchuk, M.C., who knew Mother Teresa for twenty years and is the postulator for her cause for sainthood and director of the Mother Teresa Center, Ven, Se Mi Luz brings together letters she wrote to her spiritual advisors over decades. A moving chronicle of her spiritual journey-including moments, indeed years, of utter desolation-these letters reveal the secrets she shared only with her closest confidants. She emerges as a classic mystic whose inner life burned with the fire of charity and whose heart was tested and purified by an intense trial of faith, a true dark night of the soul.
Ven, Se Mi Luz is an intimate portrait of a woman whose life and work continue to be admired by millions of people.

Solo Por La Gracia De Dios – (Spanish)
$16.95Add to cartWhat would you do if you were faced with a life-threatening illness? Would you distance yourself from God or grasp His hand, cling to His promises, and develop an unwavering trust in His goodness?
In Only by God’s Grace Norma Kennett lovingly shares how choosing the latter helped her uncover the infinite, nearly unfathomable love of God while battling a debilitating tumor. Through the fight for her life and other experiences, she recounts how each event led her closer to the heart of Jesus. She also shares the Bible promises that spoke to her in her struggles and kept her strong in the faith.
Norma’s story will inspire you to view life’s inevitable, inescapable trials in a new light as she details her multiple encounters with God through amazing dreams, God’s audible voice directing and comforting her during her most vulnerable moments, and other people whom God sent to minister to her.
“The book of Revelation says that God’s people ‘overcame … by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.’ Norma Kennett’s testimony of how God has repeatedly intervened in her life will strengthen your faith and remind you again that there is a God in heaven who is able to do the impossible in our lives. Norma’s encounters with God will encourage you to know that God still works miracles, and that faith in God and surrender to His will are enough to see a believer kept by His mighty power!”-John Bradshaw, Speaker/Director, It Is Written International

Bonhoeffer – (Spanish)

A definitive, deeply moving narrative, Bonhoeffer is a story of moral courage in the face of the monstrous evil that was Nazism.
After discovering the fire of true faith in a Harlem church, Bonhoeffer returned to Germany and became one of the first to speak out against Hitler. As a double-agent, he joined the plot to assassinate the Fuhrer, and was hanged in Flossenberg concentration camp at age 39. Since his death, Bonhoeffer has grown to be one of the most fascinating, complex figures of the 20th century.
Bonhoeffer presents a profoundly orthodox Christian theologian whose faith led him to boldly confront the greatest evil of the 20th century, and uncovers never-before-revealed facts, including the story of his passionate romance.
Cosechador De Estrellas – (Spanish)
$13.99Add to cartBorn into a family of migrant workers, toiling in the fields by the age of six, Jose M. Hernandez dreamed of traveling through the night skies on a rocket ship.

Hernandez didn’t speak English till he was 12, and his peers often joined gangs, or skipped school. And yet, by his twenties he was part of an elite team helping develop technology for the early detection of breast cancer. He was turned down by NASA eleven times on his long journey to donning that famous orange space suit.
Hernandez message of hard work, education, perseverance, of “reaching for the stars,” makes this a classic American autobiography.

Fe De Barack Obama – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartDiscover the unapologetically Christian and liberal Barack Obama-and how he represents the changing face of religion in American politics.
You’d have to live in a cave to have avoided hearing about Barack Obama’s woes as he deals with the crises arising from the close mentor relationship he had with the senior pastor at Trinity United Church of Christ, Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. How, people ask, could Sen. Obama represent as president people of all races, when he attended for 20 years a church permeated by a defining, if understandable, spirit of anger toward white America? There is, however, much more to the senator’s faith than this one issue. As early as 1994, as he delivered a powerful speech to the Democratic National Convention in Boston, he was taking a stand for his faith: “We worship an awesome God in the Blue States… Those of us on the political Left who believe in a woman’s right to choose an abortion and who defend the rights of our gay friends and who care for the poor and who trust that big government can be a tool of righteousness-we also love God… No longer will we be painted as the non-believers” In The Faith of Barack Obama, Stephen Mansfield explores Obama’s religious faith without political or ideological bias. Because if a man’s faith is sincere, it is the most important thing about him, and it is impossible to understand who he is and how he will lead without first understanding the religious vision that informs his life.
Descubra al Barack Obama que es cristiano y liberal sin ningun reparo en admitirlo -y como el representa el rostro cambiante de la religion en la politica estadounidense.

Solo – (Spanish)
$12.99Add to cartMitchell is a respected financial consultant and a dedicated youth advocate, but what’s not well known is that he had a tumultuous childhood. His memoir reveals his life in an orphanage after his mother abandoned him at age 3, as well as his struggle to find love and acceptance while learning to trust. Mitchell knew his mentally ill mother, who once kidnapped him from the orphanage, but had no real memories of his father, who attempted suicide but ended up brain damaged. His maternal grandmother was the boy’s anchor, but she couldn’t raise him, which only added to his confusion. He teetered on the edge of disaster as he matured, but at age 17 he prayed, ‘Jesus, if you are real, come into my nightmare. Forgive me of my sins and change me.’ Mitchell’s story is inspiring both for its spiritual dimension and its conventional Horatio Alger narrative. The facts of his case are also verifiably true, which Mitchell and the publisher take pains to ensure in part through the Web site www.amillionlittleproofs.com, which offers pdf versions of documents from Mitchell’s past. His memoir will appeal to adults with difficult pasts, those who work with troubled kids and anyone who revels in seeing God change a life.
