Forgive Us : Confessions Of A Compromised Faith
$24.99Add to cartMany people have become angry and frustrated with organized religion and evangelical Christianity, in particular. Too often the church has proven to be a source of pain rather than a place of hope. Forgive Us acknowledges the legitimacy of much of the anger toward the church. In truth, Christianity in America has significant brokenness in its history that demands recognition and repentance. Only by this path can the church move forward with its message of forgiveness, reconciliation, and peace. Forgive Us is thus a call to confession. From Psalm 51 to the teachings of Jesus to the prayers of Nehemiah, confession is the proper biblical response when God’s people have injured others and turned their backs on God’s ways. In the book of Nehemiah, the author confesses not only his own sins, but also the sins of his ancestors. The history of the American church demands a Nehemiah-style confession both for our deeds and the deeds of those who came before us. In each chapter of Forgive Us two pastors who are also academically trained historians provide accurate and compelling histories of some of the American church’s greatest shortcomings. Theologian Soong-Chan Rah and justice leader Lisa Sharon Harper then share theological reflections along with appropriate words of confession and repentance. Passionate and purposeful, Forgive Us will challenge evangelical readers and issue a heart-felt request to the surrounding culture for forgiveness and a new beginning.

Preemptive Love : Pursuing Peace One Heart At A Time
$16.00Add to cartA personal account of the Courtney family and the Preemptive Love Coalition, as they help children obtain lifesaving surgeries in Iraq using one simple but powerful tool: a love that strikes first.
In the middle of the Iraq War, Jeremy and Jessica Courtney found themselves with their two children caught up in the turmoil, just hoping to make a difference. After an encounter with a father whose little girl was dying from a heart defect, they began to investigate options for helping and learned that untold thousands of children across Iraq were in similar need, waiting in line for heart surgery in a country without a qualified heart surgeon.
With the help of their closest friends, they dived in to save the lives of as many as they could, but sending children abroad proved to be expensive and cumbersome, and it failed to make an impact on the systemic needs of Iraqi hospitals-the place where these children really should be saved. Despite fatwas, death threats, bombings, imprisonments, and intense living conditions, Jeremy and his team persevered to overcome years of hostilities and distrust in an effort to eradicate the backlog of thousands upon thousands of Iraqi children waiting in line for much-needed heart surgery.

Finding The Peace God Promises
$15.99Add to cartIf God has promised to give us the ‘peace that passes understanding,’ why do we sometimes feel so anxious? What are we so afraid of? Are there ways of living that lead to peace?

Learning To Love When You Dont Feel Like It
$15.99Add to cartDo these words sound familiar? “I’m tired of talking to a brick wall.” “I’ve told you that umpteen times.” “Why am I always the one to put the kids to bed while you watch TV?” “If you really loved me, you’d want to be with me.” Each of these phrases is an alarm bell, signaling the end of your marriage may be closer than you think. When Kenny Lewis’s wife, Connie, said, “I’m getting so tired of working so hard to keep this marriage together,” he was shocked. He thought he was a great husband. Typical male. Totally clueless. When he asked her to tell him how he’d hurt her, she said, “I’ve told you before and you haven’t listened.” His heart sank. Their marriage was in serious trouble. Desperate, Lewis turned to the New Testament to learn how to love his wife. He discovered the Bible uses sixteen different action words to describe love. Each of the terms challenges our modern concept of love as something you feel under the spell of candlelight and soft music. Instead, the Bible teaches that love is learning to control your response when your mate overdraws the checkbook, or wrecks the car, or when feelings inexplicably grow cold. If you want to learn how to love when you don’t feel like it, join the journey of developing a satisfying love that will last. Do the book’s love-learning steps work? Lewis not only survived his crisis, twenty-five years later he and Connie are more in love than ever!

Silence Satan : Shutting Down The Enemys Attacks Threats Lies And Accusatio
$14.99Add to cartDon’t let Satan silence your voice, fight back at the foot of the cross. Satan has launched a rigorous campaign to silence a people through whom God wants to perform mighty exploits. To overcome these schemes of the devil, a war must be fought. But this battle won’t be won with another good message, song, or resource. No, it will be won at the place of Satan’s defeat-at the cross of Christ. It is at the cross where our records of wrongs are nailed. It is at the cross where Satan and his minions are dispelled.
Framed around the author’s experience of spiritual warfare, Silence Satan introduces readers to the two warring plans for their lives: Satan’s (who kills, steals, and destroys) and God’s (who gives abundant life).

Broken And Blessed
$18.99Add to cartA little nod to those of us who are still feeling slightly half-baked: those with struggling families, cracked relationships, and a world that’s showing a little wear around the seams. When God wants to create the remarkable, He chooses to work with the less-than-perfect. Genesis is a book of beginnings. It is deeply concerned with the origins of things-of the universe, of humankind, of relationships, of sin, of civilization, of families, and of one special family created and chosen by God to be the instrument through which He would bless the world. That family is our family, yours and mine. Like all good family stories, it starts with not just a something or somewhere, but a someone. Part memoir, part biblical inspiration story,
Broken and Blessed is about how change begins when one person decides to believe God’s promises and how that makes a change in a family, like ripples on water.

Your Identity In Christ
$17.99Add to cart19 Chapters
Additional Info
There are so many of us believers that live a life that is dominated by defeat, guilt, condemnation, and shame. So many of us live powerless lives and we are far from the passionate Paul that was zealous, bold and courageous. There is a real need for the body of Christ not to view themselves through the lens of their own sins and other people’s opinions, but to view themselves as sons of God and how the Bible describes them in their TRUE Identity in Christ. This book provides a watershed of truth, insights and revelations that will help each reader come to see themselves as the Bible declares them to be. Come and read nineteen good things that God says you are, and let the truth change you, as it did for the author. Many people run from prophet to prophet to hear that God loves them, has a purpose and destiny for them, and believes in them, when if they had the right book in their hands and took the time to let the truths soak in, they would finally be set free, and propelled toward their destiny. This is such a book! -
Their Name Is Today
$14.00Add to cartThere’s hope for childhood. Despite a perfect storm of hostile forces that are robbing children of a healthy childhood, courageous parents and teachers who know what’s best for children are turning the tide. Johann Christoph Arnold, whose books on education, parenting, and relationships have helped more than a million readers through life’s challenges, draws on the stories and voices of parents and educators on the ground, and a wealth of personal experience. He surveys the drastic changes in the lives of children, but also the groundswell of grassroots advocacy and action that he believes will lead to the triumph of common sense and time-tested wisdom. Arnold takes on technology, standardized testing, overstimulation, academic pressure, marketing to children, over-diagnosis and much more, calling on everyone who loves children to combat these threats to childhood and find creative ways to help children flourish. Every parent, teacher, and childcare provider has the power to make a difference, by giving children time to play, access to nature, and personal attention, and most of all, by defending their right to remain children.

Spacious Heart : Room For Spiritual Awakening
$16.99Add to cartWhy do people, including Christians, feel empty, estranged and cynical?
Many of us have tired of the pat answers that the church and religion have provided about our questions about faith and meaning in life. We know there’s more-and we stand on the cusp of spiritual awakening, longing to reshape our connection with God.
In the tradition of Ronald Rolheiser’s The Holy Longing, Don Clymer and Sharon Clymer Landis (brother and sister, both spiritual directors and retreat leaders) take modern spirituality and turn it on its head to flesh out a Christian spiritualty of emptying oneself. How can I know God more fully? What does it mean to be a true servant walking closely with God: brutally honest with oneself, and true to Christ? Through riveting stories and text grounded in scripture, the book speaks to the deep cynicism of soul and despair that grip so many in this age.
Anyone wanting to become more loving, in touch with feelings, friends and family will find hope and direction in this easy-to-read book on the spiritual journey. We are all hungry for a full-flavored life, yet we ignore our deepest soul and quiet our cravings with more of everything. How does one embrace a spiritually simple life-gracious, accepting and fulfilling?

1 Kingdom Under God
$8.99Add to cartThe kingdom agenda is God’s blueprint for how all of life ought to be lived. However, the problem we face today is that many people have misunderstood the kingdom, therefore marginalizing its authority and influence not only in our own lives but also in our land. When Jesus taught us to pray, “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done,” He was referring to a literal entity – a kingdom that carries with it all of the power we need to live victorious lives and transform the world around us.
In One Kingdom under God, Dr. Tony Evans tells us it is time to recognize that the kingdom of God is not some ethereal fairy tale located in some far-off land. It is both here and now and it is time that we accessed all that it has to offer. This booklet is a part of the Life under God Series – a 5 book series adapted from the 5 sections found in The Kingdom Agenda, the legacy work of Dr. Tony Evans. This booklet is based on the “One Kingdom under God” section.

In One Life Under God, Dr. Tony Evans digs deep to uncover the spiritual truths behind the prioritization of the kingdom, the key to spiritual growth, nourishing a kingdom mindset and discovering your personal destiny.

Goll joyfully guides you past the cliches and into the spiritual reality of knowing God’s heart through an intentional, ongoing relationship with Him.

In The Beginning Who
$19.95Add to cartIN THE BEGINNING WHO? An Unconventional Guide to Understanding and Knowing God gives people information which may influence them to consider the God of the Book to be a pretty nice guy; and therefore decide to give Him a break and get more acquainted with Him – on a personal level.
Our generation has been so effectively saturated by electro-tainment, disassembled-logic, flash-speak and hypno-marketing hype that the understanding and knowledge of God has been crowded out. In fact, it is rather reasonable that someone may ignore, avoid, or even downright reject Him as a result of all that stuff. It is also plausible that many may have rejected a god who is not the God revealed to us in the Old and New Covenants.

Beautiful Mess : How God Recreates Our Lives
$12.99Add to cartThis profound little book encourages us to set aside our limited expectations, and to fall in line with God’s. Human beings like organization, structures, plans; God grows people. We ask for a budget; God offers us love. If you are aiming at relationship rather than performance, how do you measure effectiveness? How do you write a mission statement, yet allow God space to act out His plan rather than yours? What does Divine Order look like? Faith in God involves risk, and the possibility that God will do something entirely new. Starting with the seven days of creation, Danielle considers how God’s world resembles A Beautiful Mess – vibrant, full of colour and pulsating with life, but not about propositions. The Christian life is organic, not prescribed. We were not created to work, but to be fruitful. We need to be willing to put ourselves in a position where only God can do what needs to be done, and to have the humility to let God show us what that is.

Speak : How Your Story Can Change The World
$14.99Add to cartSpeak, by popular blogger Nish Weiseth, is a book about the power of telling our own stories and hearing those of others to change hearts, build bridges, advocate for good, make disciples with grace, and proclaim God’s kingdom on Earth today. Nish Weiseth exhorts today’s Christians to follow Jesus’ example by using story as a vehicle for change. After all, Jesus was a master storyteller. He frequently and effectively used the art of storytelling to communicate deep truths about God, humanity, love, and eternity to a culture on the brink. His stories defied social norms, revealed God’s Kingdom, and fiercely advocated for the least of these. With examples from Scripture as the foundation, Speak is a call for grace, openness, and vulnerability within the evangelical church. Nish Weiseth encourages those in the Body of Christ to know their own story of transformation and redemption—and to use those stories as a catalyst for change at both a personal and global level.

Power Of Story
$16.99Add to cartIn this book, popular author James W. Moore talks about the power of a story, such as those told by Jesus in the Bible. The author recalls, “I would be sitting there in the sanctuary of our church, doing what young boys do in church, drawing pictures on the back of the bulletin, working puzzles, looking constantly at Granny’s watch, wishing the seconds hand would move faster, daydreaming about sports, kicking my feet in the air impatiently, counting the organ pipes . . . And then, the preacher would start telling a story, and I was hooked. He had my full attention. I couldn’t wait to hear the story!” Jesus knew the importance of telling stories to convey a message or a Biblical truth and used this technique often when speaking or ministering to others throughout the Bible in the form of parables. Stories are a natural way to give detail and perspective while teaching an important point.

Undistorted God : Dispatches Of Reclaiming Faith Amid The Cultural Noise
$19.99Add to cartRay Waddle encourages us to find meaning inside, sometimes despite, the contentious times we live in. He helps readers see through spiritual insecurity and distraction to see God in new places: in the sky, in writing, in walking, in music, in memory in Gospel reading, the bread and wine, worship, the very name Jesus-and get beneath social habits or routine theological assumptions in order to find a fresh core of epiphany. There’s a long and passionate spiritual tradition of waiting for God, waiting for revival, waiting for a personal sign or the end of time-waiting for something, anything to happen. But when the noise simmers down, and the cameras stop rolling, another truth endures: God is waiting, the faith is waiting, patiently waiting out the world’s false starts. It’s as if God is rooting for the soul to brush past the distractions and move toward the burning light, toward the divine presence, the indestructible news, a less distorted faith.

Finding Faith In The Dark
$18.99Add to cartCan we trust a God who gives us different answers than we pray for? Who only fully reveals himself when we look back? Who lets us walk in darkness for months (and sometimes years) at a time? Laurie Short says yes, and through her story and the stories of others, she reveals a God who is able to transform the dark chapters of our lives into opportunities of grace. Maybe you’ve been there:
The husband or wife you stayed faithful to had an affair
The death of a spouse or child has torn your heart
A diagnosis has taken away your health, your plans and your futureWhen these things happen, we are left wondering ‘Where is that God who promises to answer our prayers if we trust in Him? Why isn’t my life turning out the way I hoped, let alone how I had planned?’ If you are, or have ever been, in that place, this book is for you. And more than helping you find your way out, this book will help you find your way through that place.

Examples And Principles Of Psychology In The Bible
$28.99Add to cartThe Bible contains instances, examples, and ideas of principles that can be found in modern psychology books. In fact, many of these principles that psychology has discovered could already be found in Scripture. This should not be considered unusual, since the Bible also contains economic and scientific principles, as well as principles from other disciplines in life. This book, however, is not about psychology based on the Bible or how the Bible is a type of psychology book. It is not about how to be a better counselor, psychotherapist, or psychologist by using Scripture, nor is it a guide on how to use psychology in everyday life from a biblical perspective. This book is not a commentary on the values of psychology through the eyes of the Scripture, nor is it an evaluation of the Scripture through the eyes of psychology. It is not a theology book, nor is it a criticism of psychology. It is simply an account of modern principles of psychology contained in Scripture.

12 Unlikely Heroes
$19.99Add to cartJohn MacArthur reveals how God worked through ordinary people in some unexpected ways.
Far from the children’s tales depicted in picture books and nursery rhymes, the men and women highlighted in the Bible were unnervingly real. They faltered. They struggled. And at times they fell short. Yet God worked through them in surprising and incredible ways to accomplish His purposes. Scripture does not hide their weaknesses, caricature their strengths, or spin their stories as a display of human nobility. Instead, it describes these heroes of the faith with unflinching honesty and delivers an unexpected ending: “God is not ashamed to be called their God” (Hebrews 11:16).
In Twelve Unlikely Heroes, pastor and best-selling author John MacArthur uses his deep knowledge of the Bible and history to take us back to see these three-dimensional men and women in their own times and cultures. In doing so, it becomes clear how their dramatic stories apply to us today. People who might at first seem foreign quickly become familiar and unforgettable, particularly as they reveal the true Hero behind every witness, the power counterbalancing every weakness, “the Author and Finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:1).

An Evangelical ManifestoAdditional Info
We live in dark times. Christians wonder: Are the best days of the Christian faith behind us? Has modernity made Christianity irrelevant and impotent? Is society beyond all hope of redemption and renewal? Os Guinness declares no. Throughout history, the Christian faith has transformed entire cultures and civilizations, building cathedrals and universities, proclaiming God’s goodness, beauty and truth through art and literature, science and medicine. Christianity may similarly change the world again. The church can be revived to become a renewing power in our society–if we answer the call to a new Christian renaissance that challenges the darkness with the hope of Christian faith. In this manifesto for cultural change, Guinness sees opportunities for Christians on both local and global levels, to win back the West and to contribute constructively to the human future. When followers of Jesus live out the gospel in the world, Christianity becomes a decisive factor in the civilizing of society and the renewal of culture. Guinness declares, “We may be in the dark about our times, but we are not in the dark about God.” So let there be no fear, nor alarmism, nor despondency, nor nostalgia. Let us have the courage and the faith to work for a new renaissance in our time. Let a thousand flowers bloom! -
Emotions : Confront The Lies Conquer With Truth
$17.99Add to cartNew York Times bestselling author and trusted pastor Dr. Charles Stanley shares practical guidance and encouragement on a topic that touches every person on earth-emotions.
God has gifted us with emotions since the very beginning-and he did so with very concrete purposes in mind-so that we can enjoy life, so we can connect with others, and so we can reflect God’s image in us. But too often, instead of making the best of this gift, our emotions make the worst of us.
Though we cannot see, taste, or touch our emotions, we are constantly affected by their forceful presence and the incredible influence they have over us. They can alter how we view our day, other people, and even the major events in our lives. Through our feelings, we have the capacity to enjoy amazing triumphs and deep fulfillment or experience crushing defeat and ruined relationships.
As Dr. Stanley deals with five key destructive emotions-fear, rejection, guilt, bitterness, and despair-he shares four simple steps for handling our emotions in a healthy manner.
Revealing God’s original purpose for emotions and wisely exposing the root of all negative emotions, Dr. Stanley will touch your heart as he teaches you how to find joy and fulfillment in the God-given gift of emotions.
Powerful and inspiring, Emotions teaches you how to become free of negative emotions and reclaim the purpose and joy for which God created them.

Sticky Faith Guide For Your Family
$18.99Add to cartThe Sticky Faith Guide for Your Unique Family addresses one of the top current concerns about youth and the church: the reality that nearly half of all young people raised in Christian families walk away from their faith when they graduate from high school. That’s the bad news. But here’s the good news: research also shows that parents are one of the primary influences on their child’s faith. This book arises from the innovative, research-based, and extensively field-tested project known as ‘Sticky Faith,’ designed to equip parents with insights and ideas for nurturing long-term faith in children and young people. Because of the Fuller Youth Institute’s six years of research with more than 500 young people, 100 churches, and 50 families, four of this guidebook’s unique qualities make it a ‘must have’ for families eager to point their young people toward long-term faith.
First, it’s grounded in sophisticated, academically verified data. While Dr. Powell is a parent of three children who authentically weaves her own experiences throughout the book, the chapter topics correlate with parenting principles proven in national research. Second, it is positive. Amid gloomy and theoretical resources, this book leaves parents empowered and hopeful that even little tweaks to their family rhythms can make a big difference. Third, it is practical. Readers get what they want most: more than 100 ideas from other parents they can try today, this week, or this month. Fourth, its ‘guidebook’ format is accessible. For busy parents who don’t have time and inclination to read, this format is a welcome resource that they can return to time and time again for fresh ideas and inspiration.

Best Yes : Making Wise Decisions In The Midst Of Endless Demands
$19.99Add to cartLearn to find and play the role God wants most for you to play, not the ones you feel pressured into playing for the sake of others or even our sense of accomplishment and worth.
Most of us spend a lot of our lives figuring out when to say yes and when to say no. How to manage our time, reduce stress, do our best for our families, find a little space for “me.” But we don’t find space for our souls until we learn to step past the yes and no of daily decisions and seek a third option: the best yes. The best yes is the choice that shapes all our other choices. (And our choices determine the direction of our lives.) It’s what allows us to play our necessary parts in God’s plan, to spend our energy and focus our passion on the assignments that really are ours. It allows us to be there for the moments we shouldn’t miss, pursue the calling our souls pulse to fulfill, give the love we were born to offer. How do we learn to say that best yes? It requires honesty. Imagination. Attention. Trust. Humility. Practice-lots of practice. And wisdom. The best yes is really all about wisdom-learning to make truly wise decisons. And that’s the heart of this book. “I want us to become powerfully effective decision makers,” writes Lysa Terkeurst. “Because then we will live powerfully effective lives. And spend our souls doing powerfully effective work to the glory of God.” With her signature mix of transparency, Scripture-laced insight, and “been there” humor, she suggests usable strategies for choosing wisely and encourages us all to shout and whisper our own best yes to life, day by decision-making day.

Centered In God
$14.99Add to cartIntroduces Christianity’s most central belief, the doctrine of the Trinity, by exploring how the Trinity shapes key aspects of Christian faith and spirituality.
In the early church the Trinitarian vision of God was foundational for Christian identity, unity, and spirituality.

It not only presents the doctrine of the Trinity as formulated by the early church, but also leads readers to know and worship the Trinity, and live in light of the Christian understanding of God. Further, it proposes that recovering the central place of the Trinity could lead to theological and spiritual renewal in the church today.
More than an introduction to the Trinity, Centered in God is a primer on Christian faith and spirituality that will deepen your walk with God.

Teach Us To Want
$18.99Add to cartThe story of each person is a story of want–desires unmet, hopes dashed, passions pursued and ambitions fulfilled. And yet why we want–and how we can want well– often eludes us. Our individual stories are set against a greater story: a good God creates us and all that is seen and unseen not out of need but according to his good pleasure. That good God enters our reality, standing in the midst of all our hopes and fears, all our sacred longings and secret sins, and redeems us down to our soul for his good pleasure. That same good God calls us into a new reality in which we seek first his kingdom and righteousness, and we discover our disordered desires burned away while our truest longings are happily fulfilled. “Lord, teach us to pray,” we overhear his followers ask. And if we listen closely, we hear our own voices alongside theirs: Lord, teach us to want. Jen Pollock Michel guides us on a journey of understanding who we are when we want, and reintroduces us to a God who would give us the desires of our hearts.

$16.99Add to cartExpanded edition with a discussion guide to accompany each section of the book, updated statistics and a new preface.
Think of the little girls you know: your daughter, a niece, a friend’s child.
And then think about this: little girls are tossed away every day.
All over the world, women and girls face starvation, displacement, illiteracy, sexual exploitation and abuse.

The authors provide specific, practical action steps and prayer points that allow you to get involved as God leads.

Suffering And The Search For Meaning
$23.99Add to cartSuffering is a philosophical problem, but it is much more. It is deeply personal. Why is this happening to me? How can I respond to friends and family in pain and loss, and to people in my care? Richard Rice guides readers through the seven most significant theodicies-approaches that have been used to make sense of suffering in light of God’s justice or control. He considers the strengths and weaknesses of each option, while always guiding us toward greater understanding and compassion. Rice goes further by offering guidelines for constructing a personal framework for dealing practically with suffering, one that draws from philosophy, ethics, theology and real-world experience. Intending for each of us to find a response to our suffering that is both intellectually satisfying and personally authentic, Rice provides the resources for meeting this challenge. He weaves together the theoretical side of the theodicies with personal stories of people who have experienced great suffering. While no framework can perfectly account for the problem of pain, we are left with the overarching insight that suffering never has the final word.

Created For Influence (Revised)
$18.00Add to cartThe church is uniquely positioned to influence the culture around it. But too often Christians have abdicated their responsibility, leaving behind a world that is rotting with sin and with no way to overcome it. Although our faith, through fervent intercession, can break the power of personal and national strongholds, many believers remain either unaware or uninvolved.
Created for Influence calls readers to move from a spot on the sidelines to a position on the front line. They can actually transform the culture through intercession and action.

Making Good Habits Breaking Bad Habits
$17.99Add to cartExperts say that at least 40% of what we do is solely the result of habit, which is why it is so important to make good habits and break bad ones. In this book, Joyce Meyer zeroes in on 14 life-enhancing habits and provides practical tools that will help you make them your own.
From nail biting to cell phone addiction, procrastination to overspending, bad habits seem to outnumber the good ones. Unfortunately, we pay a price for bad habits that outweighs the immediate gratification that they bring.
In this book, Joyce Meyer examines the nature of habits. The first habit – and most important one to have – is the God Habit. By making it a habit to start your day by reading the Bible and communing with God, asking for His help in your efforts and His strength and sustenance, the stage is set for overcoming the habits you want to break and establishing new ones in their place.
Joyce then explores how to break bad habits by examining destructive, negative behavior patterns.
Chapters are devoted to fourteen good habits, and by the end of each you have a specific roadmap to follow until the behavior has become automatic (the definition of a habit). It’s like following a GPS to get you to a new place. After traveling the same route several times, the GPS isn’t needed for you to find your destination. The ‘habit’ of following the right route has become ingrained.
Among the habits discussed are:
The God Habit
The Habit of Being Decisive
The Health Habit
The Happy Habit
The Habit of Faith
The Habit of Excellence
The Habit of Being Responsible
The Generosity Habit
The Hurry Habit
The Discipline Habit
The Confidence Habit -
Dangerous Passions Deadly Sins
$17.00Add to cartThis volume unpacks the psychological insights found in the writings of three early monks–Evagrius Ponticus (4th century), John Cassian (5th century), and Gregory the Great (6th century)–to help us appreciate the relevance of these monastic writers and apply their wisdom to our own spiritual and psychological well-being. The book addresses each of the seven deadly sins, offering practical guidance from the early monastic tradition for overcoming these dangerous passions.
As Dennis Okholm introduces key monastic figures, literature, and thought of the early church, he relates early Christian writings to modern studies in psychology. He shows how ancient monks often anticipated the insights of contemporary psychology and sociology, exploring, for example, how their discussions of gluttony compare with current discussions regarding eating disorders. This book will appeal to readers interested in spirituality, early monastic resources, and ancient wisdom for human flourishing, as well as students of spirituality and spiritual formation.

Love Never Fails
$25.00Add to cartThe revelation of Jesus Christ is not at all a liberty to sin; it is freedom from sin. We are mistaken to think otherwise. Yet we carry this message in earthen vessels, in human frailty susceptible to temptation. To be saved, we must confess sin, claiming to be absolutely no good, and repent in the face of God Almighty. Faith must work. Christians are set free from death. The tough issue we face from then on is our continuing infidelity. None of us is fully consistent. Thank the Lord that our salvation is not conditional. Our position in Jesus Christ is our condition. When will we get it through our thick heads that since we live by His Spirit we can walk not in our flesh but in God’s love? We have an awe-inspiring mission and everywhere people need Jesus. How are we supposed to convince the world of God’s abiding truth when we are imperfect? Just give a cup of water in the name of Jesus and He loves through you. Not by faith alone-faith works by love.

All Dressed Up And No Place To Go
$10.99Add to cartThe church is busy, constantly touching the community and consistently committed to marketing what we have to offer. We believe the love of Jesus and the fellowship of His followers that is experienced by all who frequent our fellowship should characterize every church. Jesus himself said, “A new command I give you; Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” (John 13:34,35). That love for Him should be the experience of anyone and everyone who embraces the ministry on any level. That love for Him should transcend all of our presuppositions about what the church should be. It should demolish any argument about who should or should not be a part of our church. That s the thing that puzzles me about the church at large today. Why are we so separated? Why are we divided? Why have we allowed denomination to be placed at the forefront of significance? Why has race or ethnicity served as a characteristic of why we are a part of a certain gathering of believers? Why has socio-economic status become a determinant in the question of who our church should reach? Why is the church unprepared to meet the needs of some who would love to be a part of the fellowship? The church of the Lord Jesus Christ in our nation should be recognized by the same characteristics as that of the early church in the Book of Acts. This living organism called the church should be known for its perpetual growth. In “All Dressed Up and No Place to Go”, Wallace Phillips, Pastor of Carpenter’s Shop Church and author of the popular book “Just Plain Vanilla”, addresses many issues that have caused division in the church and provides practical advice to bringing unity to the local church fellowship. This is a MUST READ for any pastor.

10 Lies Men Believe About Porn
$16.99Add to cartThe battle to resist pornography is brutal.
Its lure just seems too powerful.We’ve tried for years to be strong, run away from temptation, and manage our desires in better ways. No matter how hard we try, though, we just can’t get free from pornography. Some of us have lost all hope.
What if the battle you’ve been fighting isn’t even the real battle?
What if using pornography is just a symptom of something deeper going on inside of you?
What if the things you are doing to protect yourself actually contribute to your obsession?
Have you had thoughts like I’m the only one struggling like this, God must be so ashamed of me, or I’ve got to get stronger to overcome this? These thoughts are common. But they are also lies.
10 Lies Men Believe about Porn holds these lies up against the truth of Scripture. You’ll learn how they deceive us into missing out on the freedom Christ offers us. Ultimately, you’ll discover that the message of the gospel isn’t about learning to fight better-it’s about no longer needing to fight at all. That is the type of freedom Jesus came to offer you. That’s why they call it the Good News.
“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
-John 8:32-
Statistics show roughly 50 percent of men struggle with a pornography addiction; boys are being exposed to porn at younger ages each year; and technology now provides an environment of access where you no longer need to search for porn-it comes looking for you.Despite these facts, this epidemic is largely being ignored. When it is addressed, the message is always “Try harder, get an Internet filter, be a better man.” At best, this message merely addresses the symptoms of a much deeper issue. At worst, it feeds the lies men believe that have contributed directly to their addiction.
10 Lies Men Believe about Porn uncovers the true cause of pornography addiction, exposes the lies that are trapping men in their bondage, and shows them the biblical path to true and lasting freedom. -
Closer Walk With Jesus
$11.99Add to cartThe decision to be baptized into Christ represents the beginning of our walk with Jesus. As a part of the family of God, we are then responsible for setting a path for spiritual growth and maturity.
Steven Cordle charts a course for all who would discover a closer walk with Jesus. God has graciously provided examples of those who have grown and matured in their faith. There are habits and characteristics that must be learned and incorporated into our daily lives. There are also those behaviors that hinder our growth which must be weeded from our lives if we are to develop into the likeness of Christ.
Spiritual growth requires an intentional effort on our part. No one can “coast” to heaven. We must choose to have a closer walk with Jesus.
