Disciples Of The Holy Spirit
$13.95Add to cartJesus gives the Holy Spirit to make people his followers and to guide them as disciples. Disciples of the Holy Spirit helps Christians to understand the work of the Holy Spirit, to clarify the role of the Spirit in their lives as believers, and to guide them along moral paths so they may embrace the Spirit’s gifts and bear fruit to the glory of God.
Author George P. Kimber taps his knowledge and experience from nearly six decades of discipleship as an evangelist, pastor, teacher, and professor to explain the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit. He outlines God’s need for disciples in today’s challenging times. He tells how the Holy Spirit empowers individuals to follow Jesus’ unique model of discipleship. He describes the ethics of discipleship that Jesus taught in his Sermon on the Mount and that his apostles carried out in their ministries. He reinforces the truth that godly love underlies all of the Holy Spirit’s work in the lives of disciples.
Disciples of the Holy Spirit will guide you both in understanding how the Holy Spirit’s gifts and fruits come to life in your discipleship and in applying moral principles to the faithful practice of the Spirit’s gifts. In the end, you will come to know the Holy Spirit and its holistic work in your life.

Dangerous Act Of Loving Your Neighbor
$18.99Add to cart15 Chapters
Additional Info
2011 Christianity Today Book Award winner! Jesus didn’t see a sick woman, he saw a daughter of God. He didn’t see an outcast from society, he saw a child of Israel. He didn’t see a sinner, he saw a person in the image of the Creator. Are we able to see others with the eyes of Jesus? Seeing rightly is the beginning of renewal, forgiveness, healing and grace. Seeing rightly, says Mark Labberton, is the beginning of how our hearts are changed. Through careful self-examination in the Spirit, we begin to bear the fruit of love toward others that can make a difference. Here is a chance to reflect on why our ordinary hearts can be complacent about the evils in the world and how we can begin to see the world like Jesus. With each chapter broken into brief segments punctuated by questions, this book is ideal for both personal reflection and group discussion. See what happens when you take a chance on the dangerous act of loving your neighbor. Your vision might just be changed forever. -
Listening Life : Embracing Attentiveness In A World Of Distraction
$20.99Add to cart“Be quick to listen, slow to speak.” ?James 1:19 How would our lives change if we approached every experience with the intention of listening first? In this noisy, distracting world, it is difficult to truly hear. People talk past each other, eager to be heard but somehow deaf to what is being said. Listening is an essential skill for healthy relationships, both with God and with other people. But it is more than that: listening is a way of life. Adam McHugh places listening at the heart of our spirituality, our relationships and our mission in the world. God himself is the God who hears, and we too can learn to hear what God may be saying, through creation, through Scripture, through people. By cultivating a posture of listening, we become more attentive and engaged with those around us. Listening shapes us and equips us to be more attuned to people in pain and more able to minister to those in distress. Our lives are qualitatively different?indeed, better?when we become listeners. Heed the call to the listening life, and hear what God is doing in you and the world.

Uncontrolling Love Of God
$25.99Add to cartCan we say God is all-controlling if evil is genuine and randomness is real? If God is capable of controlling any situation or person and is both willing and able to stop evil from occurring, how do we make sense of the cruel and unpredictable realities of life? Should we say that suffering is necessary to build character? Are random events of death and destruction really “acts of God”? Some say that God is the cause of everything, which commits them to the view that nothing is truly random and every act of evil is part of God’s master plan. Others say that God is an impersonal force or a distant observer and so not truly involved in worldly events?but this comes at the price of a God who is personally involved in our lives and to whom we can pray. Still others say that God is sovereign but we cannot know how, because God is a mystery. This leaves us without an answer to our questions. Thomas Jay Oord argues that we need a new understanding of providence, one that can account for a world of both awful evil and awe-inspiring goodness. The Uncontrolling Love of God provides a clear and powerful response to one of the perennial challenges to Christian faith.

Angry Like Jesus
$29.00Add to cartFew people realize that the Gospels include at least fifteen different stories about Jesus’ anger. When was Jesus angry? What was He angry about? Is Jesus’ anger relevant today? Is it right for a Christian to be angry? Although sinful anger cannot achieve the righteousness of God, godly anger can rouse a sleeping church. Godly anger lights a flame that fuels people to wake up and be truthful out loud, so that many (who don’t expect it) can be healed. Godly anger is powerful. It’s an aspect of real love. It ushers in true hope because it knows that God is faithful. It dares to take a risk because it trusts that God has its back.
Without the salt of Jesus’ anger, people accept what’s unacceptable. We allow what we shouldn’t allow. We don’t make changes we should make. We deceive ourselves into thinking that corruption doesn’t need to be opposed. Godly anger is not afraid. It assumes responsibility. It motivates us to confront things we wish did not exist. Jesus’ anger is God’s gift to help deliver us.

4 Small Words
$14.99Add to cartWe live in a world addicted to sound bites. Technology has taught us how to say more with less. Text Messaging, Facebook Status Updates, and Twitter have conditioned us to pack meaning into 140 characters or less. So when it comes to a story as theologically thick, infinitely intriguing, and rich with history, metaphor and meaning as the Story of God, the thought of trying to understand or communicate that story can be overwhelming. But what if it weren’t as complicated or daunting as that? What if the essence of the Story of God could be told in just Four Small Words? What if those words could tell us more than we could ever imagine about God’s story and about our own? With the use of four simple words: Of, Between, With, and In, Stevens gives readers a clear and understandable way to grasp the big story of the Bible. We are “of” God – created by and of Him. Then something comes “between” us and God, and He finds a way to bridge that to keep us in relationship with Him. Jesus comes and lives “with” us, and the Holy Spirit is the miracle of God “in” us.
Sometimes the biggest ideas can be shared and revealed in a few small words. Stevens’ creative and fresh look at the story of the Bible will give new readers, as well as those who have grown up with this important book, new ways to understand the big picture of God’s word.
His Four Small Words will help every reader remember and follow what God was – and is – doing in the life of the world He created.

$9.95Add to cartI wrote many prayers and songs when my youngest son was stricken with a debilitating illness. I was in a state of shock, fear, and disbelief.

My son is 90 percent recovered from his illness. To God be the glory.

Christina Stokesbury is a wife, mother, successful business owner, and faithful follower of Jesus Christ. She has experienced the depths of brokenness and the beautiful art of God’s healing power. Refuse to Stay Broken: A True Story of God’s Redeeming Grace was written for those who have experienced brokenness in life. From the Author: It is so easy to find ourselves in a whirlwind of hurt, anger, un-forgiveness, frustration, or guilt, but no matter the fault, we have redemption through God’s grace. One thing I have seen during my own journey is that no matter the offense, God is greater. He can take what once was bad and turn it into His beautiful glory. Even our loss and pain can be turned into beauty, but there is only one way to make that happen. I felt called to write this book so that healing can take place in the lives of others. It is my prayer the readers will see my own walk and understand that sin held me captive until God redeemed me into something greater than what I had for myself. “If you have ever experienced a struggle in your life, this book is for you. Don’t walk away, but take this book to heart. Read her story and see that we are all being written into God’s amazing creation. -
Running After God

Return To Sonship
$14.99Add to cartSonship is the exclusive relationship between God and His children. From God’s perspective, this relationship was, is and will always be second to none.

A greater knowledge of our Sonship with God leads to a richer understanding of the value of our position, purpose, place and destiny-both with God and in creation. Recognizing our true relationship with God, and our awareness of our rule in the earth, leads to a mindset shift that enables the children of God to glorify Him to the fullest, by walking in all of the privileges, power, rights and responsibilities inherent as the children of God.

Disappointment With God
$19.99Add to cartPhilip Yancey has a gift for articulating the knotty issues of faith. In Disappointment with God, he poses three questions that Christians wonder but seldom ask aloud: Is God unfair? Is he silent? Is he hidden? This insightful and deeply personal book points to the odd differences between our concept of God and the realities of life. Why, if God is so hungry for relationship with us, does he seem so distant? Why, if he cares for us, do bad things happen? What can we expect from him after all? Yancey answers these questions with clarity, depth, and biblical assurance. He takes us beyond the things that disillusion us and prevent us from experiencing a deeper faith, the certainty of God’s love, and the thirst to reach not just for what God gives, but for who he is. This edition of the book comes with study questions for every chapter.

Never Submit : Will The Extermination Of Christians Get Worse Before It Get
$19.95Add to cartChristians in the Middle East are fleeing their homes or dying at the hand of Islamists creating the very real possibility of a successful faith-based holocaust. The implications of such an outcome for the region and the world are stark: a very fanatical militarized Islamist region that soon might be armed with nuclear weapons to threaten the world with atomic terrorism and the same insidious conditions that promote Christian genocide there could spread to America. Reversing this very serious threat must be the top priority for Middle East governments and their populations, the so-called moderate Muslim world, Western governments already frightened by rising Islamist threats and a genuine global response by Christians to rise-up around a doctrine that combines moral, civic and Christian virtue as the guiding light of future political and Christian social action in the Middle East.There are plenty of clues in God’s word about the geopolitical clashes of culture and religion seen today and on close examination there are a host of indicators that suggest, yes, events are building to an apocalyptic crescendo. It appears that the last days are rapidly approaching.The evidence contained in NEVER SUBMIT ultimately demands a clarion call for people across the world to launch a campaign that not only saves Middle East Christians from genocide but also saves the rest of the world from Islamic extremists. That campaign is called “Never Submit,” a response to Islam defined as “submission” and to Islamists who give Middle East Christians three choices: leave, convert or die. The “Never Submit” campaign calls on Christian statesman across the world to rise up and lead fellow believers and the community of nations in a righteous way to eliminate the threat posed by Islamic extremism

A One-Session Discussion Guide To Desiring God’s Will
NotesAdditional Info
Most people think of God’s will as something to be found or as the receiving of guidance from God when making decisions. Too often, however, the problem is not that we don’t know what God desires for our lives, but rather that we just don’t want to do what we already know he wants. How might our wills be changed so that we become both willing and able to do what God asks of us?In Desiring God’s Will psychologist and spiritual director David G. Benner explores the transformation of the will in Christian spirituality. He examines why our desires are disordered and how our human volition can be brought into alignment with God’s intentions so that we willingly choose that which God wants for us. In so doing, Benner shows us that cultivating discernment and being attuned to God’s desires is the path to true life, spiritual health and freedom.
God wants to change our choosing, not just our choices. By aligning our hearts with God’s, we will find liberation from the kingdom of self and instead experience the joy of the kingdom of God.
This expanded edition, one of three titles in The Spiritual Journey trilogy, includes a new epilogue and an experiential guide with questions for individual reflection or group discussion.

5. Becoming Love
Epilogue: Surrender And The Spiritual JourneyAppendix: For Reflection And Discussion
A Five-Session Discussion Guide To Surrender To Love
A One-Session Discussion Guide To Surrender To Love
NotesAdditional Info
“Only God deserves absolute surrender because only God can offer absolutely dependable love.”In our self-reliant era, most of us recoil from the concept of surrendering to a power or authority outside ourselves. But surrender need not be seen as threatening, especially when the One to whom we surrender is the epitome of goodness and love.
God doesn’t want his people to respond to him out of fear or obligation. Rather, he invites us to enter into an authentic relationship of intimacy and devotion. And so God calls us to move beyond mere obedience-by surrendering to love.
In this profound book, David G. Benner explores the twin themes of love and surrender as the heart of Christian spirituality. Through careful examination of Scripture and reflection on the Christian tradition, Benner shows how God bids us to trust fully in his perfect love. God is love, and he intends for you to live in his love. Surrender to Love will lead you to an unexpected place, where yieldedness to God frees you to become who he created you to be.
This expanded edition, one of three titles in The Spiritual Journey trilogy, includes a new epilogue and an experiential guide with questions for individual reflection or group discussion.

Its Not What You Think
$16.99Add to cartJesus was most upset at people for seeing but not seeing. For missing it. For succumbing to the danger and idolatry of forcing God into preconceived ideals. What if there were a better way? What if Jesus came not to help people escape the world but rather to restore it?

Kings And Presidents
$13.99Add to cartThis book may not be the kind of thing you can discuss in polite company. How do we deal with it? What if a faithful approach to politics wasn’t simply about who was going to win the next election? How might our political hope change when we encounter a God who offers us a different kind of kingdom?
God isn’t asking the church to be politically uniformed, apathetic, or even bi-partisan. On the contrary. God is asking us to be faithful citizens of the kingdom-a kingdom of surprising hope where the majority of God’s work to save the world will be done.
In Kings and Presidents, authors Tim Gaines and Shawna Songer Gaines helps us recast our political hope by challenging the claim that history is written exclusively by the powerful. Through a careful study of 2 Kings, we will find that trusting in God’s faithfulness is plenty political, and it has real implications for our communities, the world, and the kind of political hope we can find in it all.

Unpacking the promises of Romans 8, he shows readers that they are more than conquerors–right now and forever. And because of that, the possibilities for their lives are limitless.

Comeback Study Guide
$10.99Add to cartFeeling like you’ve blown it? Reached the point of no return? That your life hasn’t gone as planned? If so, you are not alone. We all know what it feels like to have life disappoint us and not work out as we’d hoped. We all know what it’s like to long for something different, something better, and something more.
Drawing on his own experiences and pivotal Bible stories, author Louie Giglio shows how God is all about comebacks. Samson had blown it repeatedly; nevertheless, he experiences tremendous triumph at the end of his life. The prodigal son, as Jesus describes him, returns home in disgrace only to be welcomed by his father with open arms-no questions asked. The list goes on: Joseph, Moses and Peter all experienced comebacks. Jesus himself performed the greatest comeback of all by rising from the dead.
God is in the business of giving fresh starts to people. He gives hope to the hopeless. Direction to the directionless. Help to those who need help. God is always good, all the time, and His plans will always prevail, even when our plans don’t. He already knows what the solutions are. No matter what kind of disappointment or grief or pain or trouble or heartache we encounter, God always offers a new beginning, a change of heart, and a powerful spiritual turnaround. God offers the way forward, and his pathways are always good.
The Comeback proves God can use our mess and still make a masterpiece-and that our current circumstances will not get the final say in our lives.

Messy Spirituality : Gods Annoying Love For Imperfect People
$18.99Add to cartSo, You Don’t Think You’re a Very Good Christian . . . Do you ever feel like: I don’t pray enough I don’t read my Bible enough I don’t share my faith enough I don’t love God enough I’m not committed enough I’m not spiritual enough Then this book is for you. From the man who knew messiness intimately well, Mike Yaconelli’s book, Messy Spirituality, was written for the silent majority of us who are convinced that we just don’t do Christianity right. We spend most of our lives worried about what we don’t do instead of what we have done, focused on our imperfections instead of God’s fondness for the imperfect. Why? Because we’ve been bombarded with books, movies, podcasts, seminars, and social media convincing us that real Christianity is all about perfection. Michael Yaconelli dares to suggest that imperfection, infiniteness, and messiness are, in fact, the earmarks of true Christianity; that real Christianity is messy, erratic, lopsided . . . and gloriously liberating. What if genuine faith begins with admitting we will never have our act completely together? Maybe messy disciples are exactly the kind of imperfect people Jesus came to earth for and whose company he actually enjoyed–and still enjoys. If you want to find Jesus, look for him in the midst of burned-out believers, moral misfits, religious incompetents . . . men and women whose lives are, well, messy. Messy Spirituality is a classic that offers timeless wisdom and antidotes for the spiritual perfectionism in us all. Here you will find truths that can cut you loose from the tyranny of ought-to’s and open your eyes to the deep spirituality of being loved by the God who meets you and transforms you in the midst of a messy and unpredictable life.

Imagine Heaven : Near Death Experiences Gods Promises And The Exhilarating (Repr
$16.99Add to cartIt’s obvious from the bookshelves and the big screen that heaven is on everyone’s mind. All of us long to know what life after death will be like. Bestselling author John Burke is no exception. For decades, he has been studying accounts of people who have had near-death experiences (NDEs). While not every detail of individual NDEs correlate with Scripture, Burke shows how the common experiences shared by thousands of survivors clearly point to the God of the Bible and the exhilarating picture of heaven he promises.
Imagine Heaven is an inspirational journey through the Bible’s picture of heaven, colored in with the real-life stories of heaven’s wonders. Burke compares gripping stories of NDEs to what Scripture says about our biggest questions of heaven: Will I be myself? Will I see friends and loved ones? What will it look like? What is God like? What will we do forever? What about children and pets? This book will propel readers into an experience that will forever change their view of the life to come and the way they live life today. It also tackles the tough questions of heavenly reward and hellish NDEs. Anyone interested in NDEs or longing to imagine heaven more clearly will enjoy this fascinating and hope-filled book.

Whisperer : Shma To Hear And Obey
$16.99Add to cartThe word Sh’ma translates from the original Hebrew to mean to hear and obey” In Jesus’ day, and in the continued tradition of the Jewish people of God, the daily prayer called the Sh’ma was spoken. Included in this daily petition was the word meaning “hear oh Israel.” Listening to God was always inextricably woven into obedience. To hear is to obey. It is our daily prayer to hear God and respond in obedience to Him. “The Whisperer” encourages believers to hear and obey God in our acts of Faith. It is important to distinguish whose voice we hear in our hearts and take a look at keeping our lives simple and quiet enough that we can listen. There may be voices from our past; voices that compete with God s that try to persuade us to follow another way. There may be worldly influences that keep our hearts preoccupied and far away from what is important to God. There may have been times when we did hear from God and yet did not respond in obedience. Is there a hush that we can create in our lives that helps open our ears to the voice of our Shepherd? Are we still enough; grounded enough; and healed in our inner lives enough to discern the voice we truly obey?”

Gifts Of The Dark Wood
$18.99Add to cartHave you left the faith you used to have but don’t know what to move toward? When you can’t see the road ahead, do you feel lost and alone? Do you wish you had a group of companions willing to wander with you? Welcome to the Dark Wood. As you journey through the unknown, you may feel tempted, lost, and uncertain.

Confucius For Christians
$18.99Add to cartThis book by Gregg Ten Elshof explores ways of using resources from the Confucian wisdom tradition to inform Christian living. Neither highlighting nor diminishing the differences between Confucianism and Christianity, Ten Elshof reflects on perennial human questions with the teachings of both Jesus and Confucius in mind.In examining such subjects as family, learning, and ethics, Ten Elshof sets the typical Western worldview against the Confucian worldview and considers how each of them lines up with the teachings of Jesus. Ten Elshof points to much that is deep and helpful in the Confucian tradition, and he shows how reflection on the teachings of Confucius can inspire a deeper and richer understanding of what it really means to live the Jesus way.

Grave Robber : How Jesus Can Make Your Impossible Possible (Reprinted)
$15.99Add to cartDo we believe that God still does miracles? Do we expect him to move in miraculous ways in our day-in, day-out lives? Maybe we’d like to see miracles, but it’s hard to see past our problems. All that is about to change, like water into wine. “There are miracles all around us all the time,” says Mark Batterson, “but you won’t see them if you don’t know how to look for them.” Now the bestselling author of The Circle Maker reveals the incredible power of the seven miraculous signs of Jesus found in the Gospel of John. Batterson shows how they were not simply something Jesus did in the past, but something he wants to do now, in the present. He shares true stories of people today who are experiencing miracles in their lives. And he brings to light countless miracles, big and small, that we take for granted every day that point us toward the One who healed the sick, calmed the storm, and yes, even raised the dead.But this is more than a book about miracles. It’s a book about the only One who can perform them. Batterson cautions readers, “Don’t just seek miracles. Seek Jesus. And if you seek Jesus, miracles will find you.”Nothing has changed since Jesus called Lazarus out of his tomb four days after his funeral. Our impossible situations still double as God’s greatest opportunity to reveal his glory. No matter how big the problem is, God is bigger still. Anyone who longs to see God work in miraculous ways today will love Batterson’s faith-building, life-giving message.

$11.99Add to cartJesus said in Revelation 21, “I am the alpha and the omega. I am the beginning and the end.

Jesus Pope Francis And A Protestant Walk Into A Bar
$17.00Add to cartPope Francis has taken the world by storm, captivating Catholics, Protestants, and non-Christians alike. Sneaking out of the Vatican at night, washing the feet of inmates, and taking selfies with young fans is certainly unlike any religious leader we’ve seen in a while, and some of the religious establishment is uneasy about it. The revitalization Francis is bringing to the Catholic Church is not without precedent, however. Jesus had a similar effect in his day, drawing crowds with his humility, kindness, and wisdom–even as he drew the disapproval of established religious leaders. The things that have brought Francis such media attention are the same things that made Jesus so peculiar and attractive in his day.
Thoughtful examination of Jesus’ example and legacy, as well as an honest look at the similarities and differences between Catholic and Protestant faith, invites reflection on the heart of Christianity and how we relate to our fellow Christians. Readers will discover the power of heartfelt joy, radical love, and passion for justice to shake people out of religious complacency and into dynamic, contagious faith. Jesus, Pope Francis, and a Protestant Walk into a Bar looks at what is universal among Christians, what is unique to Catholics and Protestants, and how all Christians can practice understanding and cooperation across differences.

When God Doesnt Fix It
$19.99Add to cartIs it possible that good things can come out of our broken dreams?
Worship leader and recording artist Laura Story was faced with her worst fear-her husband, Martin, was diagnosed with a brain tumor and would never be the same. Yes, with God all things are possible, but currently there is no cure to restore Martin’s short-term memory, eyesight, and other complications. The fairytale life she had dreamed of is no longer possible. And yet Laura has found joy and a deeper intimacy with Jesus through this and other broken dreams.
Laura’s understanding and faith has grown as she examines what the Scriptures say about God. For years she believed myths such as:
* God always promises happy endings
* We can avoid pain if we serve God
* If we pray hard enough, God will fix our problems
* God can’t use us until our story gets resolved
Laura helps us understand we aren’t the only ones whose lives didn’t turn out as we expected. She examines the brokenness of some of the heroes of our faith-men like Abraham, Joseph, David, and Paul-and shows how despite their flaws and flawed stories, God was able to use them in extraordinary ways. And it was not because of their faith, but because of the faithfulness of their God.
God may not fix everything. In fact, your situation might never change or get better, but you can get better regardless of your situation.
