What Shall We Say
$21.99Add to cartTsunamis, earthquakes, famines, diseases, wars &mdash these and other devastating forces lead Christians to ask painful questions. Is God all-powerful? Is God good? How can God allow so much innocent human suffering?
These questions, taken together, have been called the “theodicy problem,” and in this book Thomas Long explores what preachers can and should say in response. Long reviews the origins and history of the theodicy problem and engages the work of major thinkers who have posed solutions to it. Cautioning pastors not to ignore urgent theodicy-related questions arising from their parishioners, he offers biblically based approaches to preaching on theodicy, guided by Jesus’ parable of the wheat and the tares and the “greatest theodicy text in Scripture” — the book of Job.

Wake Up Crazy World
$17.99Add to cartOver the years, Hollywood has learned the secret of how to captivate our minds through the art of make-believe. Life in our world has become so unpredictable and uncertain, that it has become hard to distinguish between real-life and make-believe. It’s time for God’s true people to “wake up,” and distance themselves as much as possible from the perils of a negative world; and take time to live a life filled with hope and promise. Putting our trust in God, loving and enjoying our families, respecting others and showing appreciation to our friends can put us in the frame of mind to continuously thank God for the precious time He has allowed us on this earth.

Dancing With The Devil
$17.99Add to cartIn Dancing with the Devil, evangelist Melvin Pillay addresses cultural Christianity in America and the adversary’s plot to pull the Church into a deadly waltz of apostasy. This wake-up call will challenge readers to examine one’s personal faith and understanding of biblical Christianity. As a missionary from South Africa, Pillay shares his heart for the American church to turn the tide back toward a nation that is submitted to God’s authority rather than pinned under man-made institutions. Much like C.S. Lewis’ Screwtape Letters, strategies of the enemy are exposed and brought to light. The forgotten pillars of the Christian life are outlined with an honest heart to see God’s people return to their intended purpose and calling. Jesus gave the mandate to discern the times, to watch and pray. This timely word is speaking to the Body of Christ and her need to rise up against the threat of spiritual darkness and prepare for His return.

Peter Effect : Rock Solid Faith
$16.49Add to cartLook 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.

Secret To A Successful Walk In God
$12.49Add to cartThe secret to a successful walk in God comes only from a submissive soul.
You can experience salvation and receive a new heart but still miss out on Jesus best blessing for your life.

Looking in-depth at the lives of David, Daniel and Joshua how they walk with the Lord even when they did not understand the reason for the different battles they faced in their lives, but they all had one thing in common and that was Jesus, because they knew the moment they put God first He would fight their battles for them.

3. The Body
4. Time
5. The Home
ConclusionAdditional Info
How many of you reading this right now go throughout each day in a mad rush, stepping over clutter, looking for misplaced items on your way out the door, going from activity to activity, while trying to fit everything into a jam packed schedule, just hoping to make it through the day? Pamela Dorough writes,Clutter is not limited to merely encompassing your field of vision alone; clutter can also invade your mind, body, spirit, time, and activities, as well as other areas of your life.
Dorough shows practical ways to rid you of all areas of clutter, giving you the freedom to live more stress-free.
To begin the journey on the road to de-clutter, the heart and soul of your being must first be addressed. What better place to start the de-clutter process than your spirit!
Reading Dorough’s clear, earnest and sincere words is like listening to a friend gently and lovingly explain how to improve yourself and your life. In easy to comprehend language, she details how to evaluate, prioritize, and then organize, in order to create, maintain and enjoy a relationship with God. The freedom to be organized and uncluttered becomes an outgrowth of that intimacy.
Ever since the day that He, (God), spoke to me in my basement and told me to “Get rid of the clutter,” I have never been the same. God has worked with me over several years to be able to conquer the task of de-clutterization in all areas of my life.
Dorough’s insight and practical guidance make this a book equally suited for wholesale consumption, chapter-by-chapter perusal or handy reference in times of stressed disarray. The Road to De-clutter is as much a reference for successful Christian living as it is an organizational guide.

Moment Maker : You Can Live Your Life Or It Will Live You
$18.99Add to cartAn intentional life, a life lived deliberately, a life with purpose.
At the end of our days, all of these are things we would like to hear someone say about how we lived our lives. But they don’t happen by accident. A life rich with meaning doesn’t simply fall into your lap.
For Carlos Whittaker, renowned blogger, musician and worship leader, husband and dad, living life deliberately is a way of life. Making moments that are significant, memorable, or impactful are a part of how he navigates each day. Carlos is currently blowing up the blogosphere with people tuning in by the hundreds of thousands to share in these moments with him.
In Moment Maker, Carlos explains his methodology for living intentionally and for working at making moments in his life that touch the lives of others, whether that be his family, his friends, his colleagues, or total strangers.
Carlos isn’t asking anyone to make a big investment in time, energy, or money. He is simply uncovering the investment of attention. You don’t have to buy tickets to special events or orchestrate elaborate surprises. You just have to be aware — of your surroundings, the people you encounter, the things that interest those important to you, the opportunities that present themselves — and be prepared to seize those moments and see lives changed.

Run The Race
$15.49Add to cart“Run the Race – of a Worthy Lifestyle” is an invigorating source of strength that transcends far beyond the physical realm to depths of knowledge of the Word of God, often left wanting in truth-seekers. This empowering, expositional novel is, indeed, a propitious conduit and catalyst for an approved, acclaimed and commendable Christian Lifestyle. The award-winning author’s inspirational approach with ‘Run the Race’ appeals to many different types of people from all walks of life, as she demonstrates the virtues of faith through stories of key Biblical figures, such as, Abraham and Jacob in the Old Testament and Jesus Christ and the apostle Paul in the New Testament. From these stories, Mrs Biriyok draws practical lessons for the Christian of today and as noteworthy lessons for all truth-seekers; developing healthy spiritual growth to encourage the need for consistency in steadfastly living the Christian Lifestyle. The various topics, the very ingredients that underpin and drive the central theme of this book, such as, repentance, forgiveness, truth, hope, spirit-filled, perseverance and salvation, are cutting edge inspirational and provide empowerment, through the tremendous treasures of holiness and godliness, to the reader like the world has never seen before!
‘Run the Race’ is expositional, informative and empowering for everyone from all walks of life, irrespective of religious background, and is most beneficial to all truth-seekers. In effect, ‘Run the Race’ is a seamless build-up on my previous works on award-winning books – ‘Walk the Walk’ and ‘The Manual for Righteous Living.’ It is time to ‘Run the Race’ through direct communion with the Holy Spirit for one’s precious salvation, in the here and now into eternity. It completes a vital circle of Holy Spirit empowered knowledge acquisition on one’s spiritual growth journey, beyond what one may gain in regular Church attendance and sermons; as the surest way to salvation attainment and, thereby, dismantling the perilous habitual dependency by believers on preachers.

I Am Remnant
$14.99Add to cartREMNANT-HEBREW: what remains of a group of people after most of that group has been destroyed or lost The idea of remnant shows up throughout the Bible. God has used small, powerful groups who have stayed true to Him to transform culture, government, and even the spiritual climate of a nation. In I Am Remnant Pat Schatzline issues an encouraging call that there is such a remnant today, chosen by grace, that God is ready to use. Emphasizing that God can use anyone who is willing to rise up and join Him, Schatzline deals with the pain that has been inflicted in our culture and targets the loss of holiness in the church. He also covers the battles sent from the enemy that hold us down, such as fear, insecurity, pride, and pain, and gives identity to those who are desperate for more of Jesus. God is calling YOU to a particular assignment that will make a difference in this world for His kingdom’s sake. Rise up today and take your place.

God First Life
$18.99Add to cartThere are thousands of how-to books for improving various areas of life. And there are nearly as many books written for believers offering a framework for the ‘right’ approach to a new life in God.
What if it were possible, Pastor Stovall Weems asks, to boil it all down to one practical, un-complicated principle that would yield the vibrant, purposeful spiritual life so many are looking for?
That principle, says Weems, is the God-first principle: True success in our walk with God and in life in general is not an issue of WHAT I need, but WHO should be first.
Unpacking Matthew 6:33, Weems gives a fresh and practical perspective on what Christian ‘discipleship’ is all about. Bringing clarity, depth, and simplicity, Pastor Weems makes very clear core truths that have been mystified and misunderstood by many Christians and non-Christians alike.
A must-read for all believers and a must-have for pastors and churches, The God-first Life will be a standard resource for believers and churches around the world for years to come.

Leaving Ordinary : Encounter God Through Extraordinary Prayer
$19.99Add to cartGod desires an intimate relationship with each of us. But, we wonder, how can a person have such a relationship with a holy God? It is one thing to be in awe of Him, but quite another to be intimate with Him.
In Leaving Ordinary, Donna Gaines delves into this issue by exploring the notion of extraordinary prayer. How does Scripture define “intimacy” as it relates to our relationship with God? God gave the Israelites the tabernacle, a temporary and portable dwelling for His glory, and taught them how to approach and worship Him before He led them to their reward-the promised land. Using the tabernacle and its articles (altar, lampstands, etc.) as a guide, Donna teaches readers how to interact with God in that secret place of true intimacy that leads to worship.
Your ordinary daily practice of prayer can become an extraordinary encounter with the living God. Leaving Ordinary is essential reading for women who desire a more intimate relationship with God. Features include:Tools for gaining a stronger, more intimate relationship with GodAn exploration of the tabernacle as it relates to prayer today The definition of “intimacy” as it relates to God.

Christians are in the world winning souls, which is great, but many of those souls are returning back into the world because they are not being disciple.

As mature Christians, let’s help direct and develop those who are making a decision to follow Christ by teaching them the ways of God.

Fortilla The Flower Of Faith
$14.99Add to cartI was sitting at home one day doodling this flower.
She had such a pretty look to her that I had to add a face,
Once I did this- it was like she came to life as a character.
My mother loved her so much that I made her a full length picture of her.
As a character, she sat on my shelf for 3 years.
I knew that God had a plan for this character, I just had to wait.
As I was driving home one day- the story unfolded in my mind.
I, then drew a layout of how a flower grows from a seed to a flower,
The story of a mustard seed popped in my mind and it was then I knew…
The cycle of a seed is the same as a person’s faith.
Once it is planted, it just needs time
And nurturing. -
Are You A Christian Or A Disciple
$19.99Add to cart“The title Are You a Christian or a Disciple? boldly addresses a question that has ultimate implications for every Christ Follower, and which God seems to be pushing into the center of today’s global “Christian” conversation. Well researched and presented, this book is going to challenge thinking about what it means to be a disciple– nothing less than a fully devoted follower of Jesus! Ed Gross has given the church a very timely, provocative, and practical resource!” Jerry Trousdale – author of the best-selling book: Miraculous Movements: How Hundreds of Thousands of Muslims are Falling in Love with Jesus
“With an authentic love for the church and a rigorous commitment to Biblical study, Ed takes on the task of showing us how we have lost the true meaning of discipleship, replacing it with a comfortable-living brand of Christianity that ignores how Jesus taught his disciples to be and to make disciples. This book may challenge long held notions of effective evangelism, missions, ministry, and discipleship. I’ve seen, in several places around the world, the 1st century brand of explosive disciple-making that Ed talks about. Can it happen here? That may depend on how we respond to the question, Are You a Christian or a Disciple?” – Dr. Dave Hunt – VP Disciple Making Movements in the Americas – CityTeam International
“When Ed preaches, he preaches even to the point of tears. In this book Dr. Gross passionately pleads that you, I, the whole church will take the Word of God at face value, particularly Jesus’ command to make disciples.” Dr. Robert Styer, Professor of Mathematics and Statistics, Director of the Comprehensive Science Program, Villanova University

Every fourteenth year God has proven to the medical doctors that He is the true healer and life giver. His wisdom and knowledge brings to our attention, we need to put our trust in Him.

Ive Never Been To Vegas But My Luggage Has
$15.99Add to cartWrong turns, humiliating flops, painful heartbreaks–and happiness? Yes, believe it or not, they “can “go hand in hand.
Blogger and author Mandy Hale, affectionately known as “The Single Woman” to her half-million social-media followers, is living an adventurous life that proves even our lowest lows and messiest mess-ups can point us toward our joy-filled destiny as single women.
In “I’ve Never Been To Vegas,” ” But My Luggage Has,” Mandy delivers heart-to-heart, often hilarious stories from a life filled with love and loss, glamour and goose bumps, faith and friendship, big dreams and battle scars. She shares the bittersweet euphoria of her high-school romance, the panic-stricken cluelessness of her first day on a stressful job, and the foot-in-mouth horror of her red-carpet interview with a music legend.Along the way, Mandy dollops personal anecdotes with encouraging insights. From thrilling first kisses to crushing break-ups, from soaring career milestones to promising flights that never quite got off the ground, she unfolds in often uproarious detail the zigzags along the path toward a pinnacle moment: sharing a table and a pinch-me-I’m-dreaming conversation with her lifelong hero.
In the end, Mandy turns Sin City’s infamous marketing slogan on its head: What “happens” in her life doesn’t “stay” in her life. She shares even her darkest moments in witty, winsome ways that make us not only feel her pain, but also laugh with her and apply her hard-won nuggets of inspiration to our own lives.
“Happily Ever After” might not look or feel quite like what we expect, but as Mandy is discovering–and as we can discover along with her–it is “well” within our reach.

Additional Info
Can my life matter? How can I thrive? The answer to both questions is vocation. Vocation is more than our job. It is our relationships and responsibilities woven into the work of God. For decades Steve Garber has traveled the world, coming alongside a wide range of people as they seek to make sense of their world and their lives. We meet, with Garber, leaders from the Tiananmen Square protest in China and a group of musicians who called themselves Jars of Clay. And we meet ordinary people too, like: Jonathan who learned he would rather build houses than study historyTodd and Maria who adopted creative schedules so they could parent better and practice medicineD.J. who helped Congress move into the Internet AgeSusan who built a home business of hand-printing stationary using a letterpressSantiago who works with majority-world nations in need of capitalClaudius and Deirdre whose openhearted home has always been a place for people Vocation is when we come to know the world in all its joy and pain, and still love it. Vocation is following our calling to seek the welfare of the world we live in. And in helping it to flourish, we find that we flourish too. Garber offers here a book for parents, for those in the arts, in the academy, in public service, in the trades and in commerce–for all who want to discover the virtue of vocation. -

Secret Language Of Successful Couples
$15.99Add to cartWhy is it so hard for married couples to get in sync with each other? How is it that your mate can be a source of joy and of frustration all on the same day?
Marriages operate by a secret language–a collection of key words, actions, insights, and attitudes that determine how a couple’s relationship works. If that language is uncovered, love grows and flourishes. If that language remains a mystery, love gets buried behind misunderstandings and irritations.
Bill and Pam Farrel, authors of the bestselling Men Are Like Waffles, Women Are Like Spaghetti, offer biblical and practical insight into this language that God has programmed into each married couple. Laced with the Farrels’ trademark humor, The Secret Language of Successful Couples is packed with ideas to help couples connect at a richer, deeper level. As both partners grow in relationship with God and rely on the Spirit for insights into the heart of their mate, they can replace their old, selfish languages with a new one that leads to greater intimacy in every area of life.

Grace : More Than We Deserve Greater Than We Imagine
$19.99Add to cartAs believers in Christ, we claim to understand grace. From Sunday school to adulthood we’ve been taught that we’re saved by grace. We know the Bible verses and the sinner’s prayer, but have we really taken hold of it? Or rather, has it taken hold of us?
Grace isn’t a nice idea. It’s not a song lyric, or a warm, fuzzy feeling. It’s the radical life of Christ lived in you. Grace gives you the freedom to love the unlovable, and forgive the unforgivable, because you know how much you’re loved, and know how much you’ve been forgiven.In Grace: More Than We Deserve, Greater Than We Imagine, Max Lucado calls readers back to consider the abundant richness of God’s offer. It’s an offer to live a changed life, a call to genuine transformation and the courage to see it through. Don’t let grace pass you by. When you let it in, it will rock your world, and change your heart.

Dare Mighty Things
$22.99Add to cartIn Dare Mighty Things, Halee Scott proposes that it’s time for a new conversation about Christian women leaders. Western women live in a time of unparalleled freedom and opportunities. Although women are still underrepresented in leadership positions in every sector of American life—from politics to business to the church—the truth is that women have more opportunities to have a meaningful impact on our world and our society today than at any other time in human history.
The leadership potential of Christian women has been further truncated by the theological debate over the nature of women’s leadership in the church. While this conversation is an important one, it’s not the only conversation we should have about Christian women leaders. Since complementarians and egalitarians both agree that women can be leaders in some capacity, it’s time to focus on what unites us rather than divides us.
To help women steward their giftedness and thrive in their areas of leadership, Dare Mighty Things discusses the main challenges and strategies for success for Christian women leaders.

Grace Is Free
$9.99Add to cartWhat Does “Godly” Look Like?
A great treason is infiltrating the Christian world today. The gospel is meant to set people free, but instead it has been subtly tainted by the enemy. False teaching has slipped in virtually unnoticed, but its effects are deadly. To-do-lists, competition (even with spiritual disciplines) and extra rules have enslaved women to self-righteousness instead of leading them to Christ’s righteousness. Disguised as “helpful tips for women,” this distortion robs Christian women of intimacy with each other and labels them as “godly” for what amounts to human effort and worldly success.
Many people view this competition for godliness as striving for excellence. After all, what man doesn’t want a woman who is zealous to be the best homemaker, mother, and wife? But if organization and domestic genius were prerequisites for godliness, then Martha Stewart would be one of the godliest women in the world. The truth is, when women spend more time trying to appear godly rather than actually being close to God, there can be no other motive than a desire for approval from people rather than from God himself.
Grace Is Free unmasks this false gospel and the bondage to people’s approval that comes with it. It attempts to realign perspectives and help women understand how to rest through faith in what has already been accomplished through Jesus Christ. The true gospel is received through faith, not activity. “For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: ‘The righteous will live by faith.'” (Romans 1:17)

Supernatural Transformation
$16.99Add to cartThe central organ of the human body is the heart. It circulates the blood throughout the whole bodily system, pumping oxygen and nutrients to the other organs and pulling toxins away from them.
Yet we human beings have another “heart”-a spiritual one-that is the true center of our existence. Our spiritual heart is our identity. It is the foundation of our whole being, from which our desires, designs, purposes, will, thoughts, and attitudes originate.
Yet, as a result of the fall and our sinful nature, we all have symptoms of “heart disease,” and we need to know how to become spiritually heart-healthy. As the Scriptures say, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9). Every spiritual, mental, and emotional matter-and many physical ones-is rooted in the heart. The state of our spiritual heart affects all aspects of our daily living. Therefore, the condition of our heart will be the condition of our life.
Join Apostle Maldonado in a journey of discovery into the purpose, motivations, and potential of our spiritual heart. God wants us to understand how, in Christ, our heart is designed to “pump” life to our entire being-producing mental, emotional, and physical health and removing the toxins of sin.
We were created to reflect the heart of our heavenly Father. And God is ready even now to change our heart to be like His through a supernatural transformation!

Cloud Of Unknowing
$15.99Add to cartFew things are as eternal in this world as man’s quest to better know and understand his Creator. Because the human mind is far too small to fully grasp the Almighty, believers who try to approach Him intellectually often “freeze up,” entering into a “cloud of unknowing.” But God is approachable.
The Cloud of Unknowing dates back as far as the fourteenth century and has inspired generations of seekers in their efforts to connect with God. Created as a primer to instruct young monks to develop techniques for encountering God, its tone is not academic or austere but rather a loving call for believers to grow closer to God through meditation and prayer.
If you desire to experience God in your heart, and yourself in God’s heart, The Cloud of Unknowing will be a book to read and reread for a lifetime.

God Still Works
$11.99Add to cartThis is not to make money for me or the ministry…but it is to remind me of all the miraculous things God has done…
Rev. Eddie Watson is genuine, humble and sincere in his conviction that God works-works, not past tense-His miracles everday, everywhere and in every way. Are you aware that God is working all around you? He’s providing protection, answering prayers and offering guidance.
The road that God has for us to travel is seldom easy. Many times we bring things on ourselves that cause us problems, but we have a promise from the Lord that no matter what we must go through, it will be for good.
He will use friends and family. He will use health issues and heartache. He will use people, problems and persecution. He will use kids, creditors and college examinations. He will use ministers, mishaps and mundane rituals. He will use loved ones, law officers and log chains. He will use doctors, deacons and even demons to get you to the point of true blessing. If you are not in a position to see God work in your life, you should probably change positions!
We should seek the Lord, but wait until we see where He is working before taking action. Most will use this as an excuse for not doing anything for the Lord. The problem is that they are not actually seeking, because then they must put their faith into action, and many times their faith is not strong enough to act.
God Still Works is a loving yet direct message to both the increasingly complacent Christian church and the individual believer. Through testimonies of divine intervention, Rev. Watson proclaims the ever-presence, and the active hand, of God in the lives of believers today.

Stepping Into Your Destiny
$14.49Add to cartThere is a reason you are occupied by thoughts of your destiny, or purpose of existence. You have an innate need to seek out the plan God created for you. You were designed with a craving to reach your destiny. I did not know I had been chosen by God to fulfill a purpose in His plan.
The Bible is full of promises of protection, provision, and abundance. However, as we step into the life God has called us to lead we feel fear, uncertainty, and a lack of resources. Just about the time we get trucking along, something we depended on gets changed, and we are forced to make adjustments. During which times we experience fear, uncertainty, and even anger, our faith is challenged.
When a tree is left to tend to itself and the dilapidated branches droop to the ground and dry up, producing no fruit, only leaves, it is trying its hardest to restore itself. But, all its efforts are in vain, because all its energy is going to sustain the dilapidated branch with leaves. It does not possibly have the resources needed to also produce fruit. It’s taking everything it has just to survive. Do you know what that feels like? Are you pouring everything you’ve got into your life, and still just barely getting by?
Knowledge of your identity is crucial in fulfilling your destiny. It will be used to encourage you. As you travel this road to fulfilling your destiny, you will need the proper tools. All of the tools are crucial for traveling the path you were destined to walk.
When you step into your destiny, you will be exhilarated, ready to do what you are certain God has called you to do. At this point, you are experiencing the power Paul wrote about in his second letter to Timothy, “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline”
( 2 Tim 1:7 NIV). As the self-discipline lessons begin to shape you, you will feel the pain and confusion caused by the pruning. Yes! You have been pruned by the gardener (John 15); you are a branch with hardly any leaves or anything left on it; you feel naked, exposed and vulnerable. It is the winter of your transformation. It is in this time that you must allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. Relying on your feelings will not do. Every ounce of logic and analysis will tell you to turn around, pull out, stop, abort mission! But, it is not the truth. Only the Holy Spirit can guide you through this season. “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfu -

Long known for her passionate and articulate expression of biblical womanhood, Bevere presents fresh imagery-as enticing and strong as polished steel-to prepare women boldly for the challenges they face in today’s world. It’s not enough to just be wise and strong: Now a woman must know how to wield her sword.

To Whom Do You Belong
$20.49Add to cart(Act 27:21-25) When they had gone a long time without food, then Paul stood up in their midst and said, “Men, you ought to have followed my advice and not to have set sail from Crete and incurred this damage and loss. “Yet now I urge you to keep up your courage, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship. “For this very night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood before me, saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar; and behold, God has granted you all those who are sailing with you.’ “Therefore, keep up your courage, men, for I believe God that it will turn out exactly as I have been told.
Book ONE of Twelve
The above verses dramatically demonstrate that the Apostle Paul, the writer of some thirteen Books of the New Testament, not only knew “To Whom He Belonged”, but stated that he “Belongs To God”. There is on old saying that a woman cannot be partially pregnant, she is either pregnant or not, nothing in-between. This concept is especially true in everyone’s spiritual life. We are either alive in Christ and “Belong To God” or dead in our spiritual condition, therefore belonging to the devil. One cannot be partially “born-again”.
It is of utmost importance to note; this question of “Belonging To God” can only be decided upon and answered before one dies. If we can say without any question or doubt we “Belong To Him”, then we have His Word, The Holy Bible, as our “Owner’s Manual”. Since the designer and inventor of our lives has left us His “Owner’s Manual”, then it behooves each of us who have “believing faith”, to search this “Owner’s Manual” for the instructions, directions, promises and hope associated with “Belonging To This Almighty God Of The Universe”.
This Volume One, as well as all other volumes (Two through Twelve), are intended to help in that search. The search encouraged throughout these volumes is to know God’s Word and daily desire to exemplify IT through our actions. As we search the scripture it should be encouraging to take to heart, this special partial quote from the above verses, … “for I believe God” … as a great example of trusting His Word and maximizing that “trust belief” in all that we are and do!!!
It is my daily prayer that each reader will find, “the peace that passes all understanding”, in their journey of this enriching security and joy, found in “Belonging To and Believing God”!!!

Show Me This Man Called Jesus
$14.99Add to cartThis book will kick up a lot of “religious” dust in all of us. It’s what we do when the dust settles and our eyes are opened that will determine where we go from here. It is only when we see Him, that we see our destiny. We must not get offended with the truth. The truth is the only thing that will set us free. The enemy is behind offenses, as he does not want us to reach our destiny. Each one of us has a marvelous, unique destiny marked out by the price Christ paid for it. Hebrews 12:1b puts it simply, “Let us lay aside every weight and sin which does so easily beset us and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.” We would all agree that the church has a message for the world, but would we all agree that the world has a message for the church? They, most assuredly, do. Their cries identify the reason Christ came to earth as a man and became the sacrifice for those cries. For every cry, there is a provision in His sacrifice. Has the church in general disclosed the real Christ and His sacrifice that brings wholeness and purpose for all people; regardless of denomination, race and background? The world is crying out to the church, “Show Me This Man Called Jesus”! This book reveals truths to the world and the church that will awaken “hope” in both. Hope awakened in the church will bring her out of law into grace. Hope awakened in the world will bring the world to Christ!

Dare We Speak Of Hope
$23.99Add to cartProphetic Christian reflection on faith and politics from a seasoned South African scholar
Since the spectacular rise of South Africa’s Nelson Mandela and the remarkable election of Barack Obama as president of the United States, the phrase “hopeful politics” has dominated our public discourse. But what happens when that hope diappoints? Can it be salvaged? What is the relationship between faith, hope, and politics?
In this book Allan Boesak meditates on what it really means to hope in light of present political realities and growing human pain. He argues that hope comes to life only in situations of vulnerability — in struggles for justice, dignity, and the life of the Earth. Dare We Speak of Hope? is a critical, provocative, prophetic — and, above all, hopeful — book.

Altar Ego : Becoming Who God Says You Are
$18.99Add to cartYou are NOT who you think you are. In fact, according to bestselling author Craig Groeschel in Altar Ego, you need to take your idea of your own identity, lay it down on the altar, and sacrifice it. Give it to God. Offer it up.
Why? Because you are who God says you are. And until you’ve sacrificed your broken concept of your identity, you won’t become who you are meant to be.
When we place our false labels and self-deception on the altar of God’s truth, we discover who we really are as his sons and daughters. Instead of an outward-driven, approval-based ego, we learn to live with an “altar” ego, God’s vision of who we are becoming.
Discover how to trade in your broken ego and unleash your altar ego to become a living sacrifice. Once we know our true identity and are growing in our Christ-like character, then we can behave accordingly, with bold behavior, bold prayers, bold words, and bold obedience.
Altar Ego reveals who God says you are, and then calls you to live up to it.

Power Of The Older Christian
$12.98Add to cartLaurus Books
Dr. Millard B. Box, shown on front cover at almost 98 years young as of this writing, refuses to retire. He still preaches regularly, and he practices what he preaches! What he preaches is a way of life based on the Word of God. Says Dr. Box: “We have been taught to believe that 70 or 80 is the limit of life, and when most of us draw near that age, our thoughts are filled with dire and dreadful pictures. We make our wills, buy our caskets, make sure we have health insurance or hospitalization, and set all our energies to fight our last enemy, death. “In the Bible kind of life, there is no retirement, and the older a saint of God becomes, the more important he or she is in matters of the kingdom. They should be sought out for godly wisdom … If we older ones do not change, then the youth will become like us in the next generation, and God help the world if that happens.” -

God Revealed : Revisit Your Past To Enrich Your Future
$17.99Add to cartRaised in a lower-middle-class, nonreligious family, Fred Sievert lived the American dream by exercising a strong work ethic with the classic symptoms of a type-A overachieving personality. In the process he often neglected his family and friends as he doggedly pursued his socioeconomic ascent. But God revealed Himself to Fred in a profound way early in life and remained present through many difficult personal and business struggles, challenges, and decisions. The power of the stories in “God Revealed” and the extent to which God was with Fred throughout his young life and business career only became fully apparent to him after retirement, as he reflected on his life, his family, and his successes.
The underlying theme of “God Revealed” is that all of us encounter God in unanticipated ways. Sometimes we simply don t recognize where His influence and guidance are constantly manifesting themselves. “God Revealed” invites readers not only to watch vigilantly for messages from God in their daily lives, but also to reconsider experiences from their past, realizing that those overlooked encounters often carry messages that can, with recognition, strengthen their faith and enrich their future. -

Storytelling God : Seeing The Glory Of Jesus In His Parables
$22.50Add to cartThe prodigal son. The good Samaritan. A treasure hidden in a field. Most of us have heard these parables before. Yet if these oft-repeated tales strike us as merely sweet, heartwarming, or sentimental, we can be sure we’ve misread them. Jesus’s parables are simultaneously working to conceal and reveal profound spiritual truths about God, humanity, the world, and the future-and we must learn to plumb their depths. A careful reading of the biblical text reveals the surprising ways in which such seemingly simple stories rebuke, subvert, and sabotage our sinful habits, perspectives, and priorities. Discarding the notion that Jesus’s parables are nothing more than moralistic fables, Jared Wilson shows how each one is fathoms deep and designed to drive us to Jesus in awe, need, faith, and worship.

The Re-Birth: A New Beginning
The Struggle Between Flesh And Spirit
The Prophetic And The Flesh
Closing ThoughtsAdditional Info
When something is birthed it is the beginning of a new life and in order for that life to thrive it must go through a process. For instance, when a child is born they are completely dependent on others. As the child matures and grows, the child must be disciplined in order to be taught right from wrong. If a child is not disciplined they will become very unruly and the lines of right and wrong become blurred. Proverbs 22:6 “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” When a parent disciplines a child in love that child has a choice to make. If the child accepts the discipline in love, the child will mature and become a healthy adult. However, if the child decides to not accept the discipline in love and rebel, the child becomes more rebellious and angry, leading to a dysfunctional immature adult. -

Romance Of Religion
$15.99Add to cartC. S. Lewis said that Christianity works on us like every other myth, except it is a myth that really happened. Dwight Longenecker grabs this idea and runs with it, showing that the Christian story is the greatest story ever told because it gathers up what is true in all the fantasy stories of the world and makes them as solid, true, and real as a tribe of dusty nomads in the desert or the death of a carpenter-king.
In The Romance of Religion Longenecker calls for the return of the romantic hero-the hero who knows his frailty and can fight the good fight with panache, humor, and courage. Conflict and romance are everywhere in the story of Christ, and our response is to dust off our armor, don our broad-brimmed hats, pick up our swords, and do battle for Christ with confidence, wonder, and joy.Is religion no more than a fairy tale? No, it is more than a fairy tale-much more: it is all the fairy tales and fantastic stories come true here and now.
“This book is witty, whimsical, and deadly serious. With panache and aplomb, Dwight Longenecker sets out to prove that Christianity is, in every sense of the word, fabulous. And does he succeed in his quest? I encourage you to read it to find out.”
-Michael Ward, senior research fellow, Blackfriars Hall, University of Oxford, and professor of apologetics, Houston Baptist University
“If you’ve never thought about the Christian faith as romance and story, then this book will introduce you to a whole new way of thinking.”

Case For A Creator
$19.99Add to cartA Journalist Investigates Scientific Evidence That Points Toward God ‘My road to atheism was paved by science…but, ironically, so was my later journey to God.’—Lee Strobel
During his academic years, Lee Strobel became convinced that God was outmoded, a belief that colored his ensuing career as an award-winning journalist at the Chicago Tribune. Science had made the idea of a Creator irrelevant—or so Strobel thought. But today science is pointing in a different direction. In recent years, a diverse and impressive body of research has increasingly supported the conclusion that the universe was intelligently designed. At the same time, Darwinism has faltered in the face of concrete facts and hard reason. Has science discovered God? At the very least, it’s giving faith an immense boost as new findings emerge about the incredible complexity of our universe. Join Strobel as he reexamines the theories that once led him away from God. Through his compelling and highly readable account, you’ll encounter the mind-stretching discoveries from cosmology, cellular biology, DNA research, astronomy, physics, and human consciousness that present astonishing evidence in The Case for a Creator.

Except The Lord Build The House
$12.49Add to cartMy pediatrician walked in. My jubilant “Hi!” brought a beet-red flush to his face-my heart stopped as he groped for the only words I actually heard, “…and I’m sorry, but your son expired at eight this morning.”
This is a breathtakingly courageous testimony of learning to lean utterly on God. Enduring the most devastating tragedy that a parent can ever experience, Carlsen learns the futility of trying to micromanage the Creator. She learns to listen, learns the nature of true obedience to His will, and her heart and spirit are forged into greater and greater intimacy of trust in the Lord.
Her faith is tested again and again as she surrenders every facet of every nuance of every decision into God’s control. In the midst of her pain, the author gains invaluable insight into the nature of Christian growth, drawing a parallel to the raising up of a baby to maturity. In her clear and direct voice, the concept is staggering in its simplicity:
Imagine if pastors were able to assign mature elders and deacons to patiently nurture and instruct new believers about how to “work out their own salvation” day by day…The church is not a building we come to; it is a living structure we are part of. We don’t come together to act like Christians as part of an exclusive club.
This book examines intimate subjects that are difficult to read about-no reader will get to the end unaffected-yet at the same time…there’s the most incongruous thread of joy woven through the whole. There is teaching here, and a whole universe of emotion. A journey of hope and deepening faith, Except the Lord Build the House is a deeply moving experience.

Today, marriages are declining at an alarming rate. We’ve all heard the statistic – 50% of marriages end in divorce, but do we ever ask why these marriages are ending?
Nobody enters into a marriage thinking “I’m part of that 50% that will end in divorce.” Wedding days are filled with beauty and the promise of a life filled with happiness. So what happens between the wedding day and the day the divorce papers are finalized? According to pastor and teacher Tony Evans, marriages deteriorate because we have lost sight of the purpose and joy of the marriage covenant.
Marriage Matters examines the nature of the relationship that people enter into on the wedding day. Dr. Evans looks to the Bible and defines what a covenant is, who makes it, and what the implications are. Chaos arises when we seek to do things our way, thus the need to align ourselves according to biblical standards of marriage. Let the practical and engaging Dr. Tony Evans lead you in knowing just how much Marriage Matters.

Infinite Journey : Growing Toward Christlikeness
$19.99Add to cartAfter we ve come to faith in Christ, God leaves us in this world for a very clear purpose: his own glory. But how are we to glorify God for the rest of our lives? The Bible reveals that God has laid before every Christian two infinite journeys which we are to travel every day: the internal journey of growth into Christlike maturity, and the external journey of worldwide evangelism and missions. This book is a roadmap for the internal journey, laying out how we are to grow in four major areas: knowledge, faith, character, and action. In this book, we ll learn how God grows us in knowledge, faith, character, and action. We ll also discover that spiritual knowledge constantly feeds our growing faith, faith will transform our character, our transformed character will result in an array of actions more and more glorifying to God, and our actions will feed our spiritual knowledge. This upward spiral will lead us to become more and more like Jesus Christ in holiness. And not only will this book help us understand Christian growth in detail, it will also give us a passion to grow every day for his glory.
