I Wish I Had An Uncle Dick
$22.99Add to cartGrowing up in the forties, we became best friends, my brother and I. I watched Dick grow tall in stature and strong in character. He became a loving father. Compassionate and loyal, he was unusually perceptive in his approach to life. Perhaps it was during the years that Dick spent as a truck driver with only the Lord as a traveling companion when he learned to trust him. For when cancer gave an ultimatum, he never faltered in his confidence that his Savior would guide him safely to his final destination. A niece beautifully described his outlook: “Uncle Dick helped me understand life’s inequities,” she said. “I watched him reconcile many hardships with the Lord. Even when death was inevitable, he seemed to say, ‘Okay, Lord, if that’s the way it is, it’s all right.’ He just smiled, and went on.” Dick touched our lives, and left behind an imprint of faith and hope.

Healing The Masculine Soul
$18.99Add to cartIn his groundbreaking book fifteen years ago, Gordon Dalbey identified the fact that men’s souls have been torn between strength and sensitivity. Today, the situation is even worse. The politically correct crowd cries out for men to be more sensitive, to tame their masculine nature. On the opposing side, the media bombards men with “macho” images of violence and lust. Is it any wonder men are left bewildered about who they should be? In this newly revised and updated edition of Healing the Masculine Soul, Dalbey claims that there’s hope for restoration, hope for healing_because Christ has come to heal us. God is calling men out to a relationship with Himself and calling them out to authentic manhood. “Our task is not to curse our manhood, but to redeem it,” he writes. Gordon Dalbey’s refreshing, comprehensive picture of God’s design for the masculine soul dares men to be as God created them to be_not as society demands. Dalbey tackles the tough issues, including work, sexuality, marriage, and fatherhood. Book includes Study Guide.

Chapter One : A Modern Day Testimony
$16.99Add to cartIn a world full of crime, tragedy, and death, we do not hear enough of the positive events. The world seems to be most interested in who died, who slept with whom, who killed whom, and so on. Tragedy is the top story of every news program and the headline of every newspaper. Where is the good news? We do not hear about what God is doing. We all have stories to tell. Just think if no one had written down the accounts that we now read in the Bible, or if historians had not recorded the events from which we get our history books. No one would know that God exists today, and our past would be lost. This book is an account of the first ten years of my walk with the Lord. My desire is that this book will glorify God, and encourage you in the challenges you face. May it inspire you to write your own story.

Uniquely His Love Matilda
$14.99Add to cartUniquely His is a story of God’s grace, mercy, and love given to a very ordinary woman who is discovering every day that God had an awesome plan for the youngest of fourteen children. I always felt I was a mistake and never should have been born. I was forty-three years old before I knew that God was excited on the day of my birth. Insecurity has many faces. It can be hidden behind a loud, aggressive response; a quiet, withdrawn demeanor; a determined drive to succeed; or a fear of failure. It is whatever keeps us from becoming real people. It all began in a garden when man sinned, but it was in a garden that God had a plan to give back what the enemy stole.

God Wants A Relationship Not A Performance
$18.99Add to cartIT’S ALL ABOUT GOD The curtain rises. Magnificent applause. And starring in the leading role is…God. God Wants a Relationship Not a Performance takes a look at the wonderfully written script for successful living in Romans 5-8. But the drama is not about us-doing our best to try to impress God. It’s about God doing what we could never do. When it comes to victorious living in the Christian life, God takes the leading role. However, we too often convince ourselves a human being is capable of performing to please God. Our human performance doesn’t cut it with God. Only our acceptance of Jesus Christ as the Savior and Lord of our lives brings heaven to its feet.

Ease The Squeeze
$21.99Add to cartEconomic uncertainty, layoffs, corporate scandals, stock market losses, excessive credit card debt, inability to save for the future, stress, overload, relationships in turmoil, choices, priorities– Americans are feeling SQUEEZED! We save less, give less, declare bankruptcy more, and are more in debt than ever before. Though we are more prosperous as a nation than ever before, the personal financial trends that are sweeping our country and generation are sobering. Our savings rate has dipped from 12% to 1%. We file 1.4 million bankruptices a year versus 100,000 in the 1950s. Our government debt is more than 6 Trillion dollars. The average American has 16.7 credit cards with $8367 of debt. The annual number of divorces has quadrupled to 1.2 million, and our giving has decreased from 6% to 2.6%. We pay an average of $1000 a year in interest and give only $754 a year.
Surveys show that for many people these trends are a result of their financial situation, a lack of financial training, or a lack of proper planning and priorties. Ease the Squeeze will help you develop a plan, train you to manage your money instead of it managing you, and chart your course for your life, your finances, and your giving! The early feedback has shown that this book will lead people to financially free lives and help them develop purposeful plans for getting out of debt; establishing savings; setting up a budget; giving; and regaining control of their time, plans, relationships and finances.

Theres Enough Woman Left To Be Your Lady
$17.99Add to cartUsing biblical characters such as the woman with an issue of blood, Junious Epps Jr. shows how women are bleeding with issues that keep them bent over until they reach out to touch the hem of Jesus’ garment. Life knocks us all off balance, sometimes making it hard to get back on our feet. Hot rays of testing can turn a woman’s mind, home, job, and even church life into a wilderness of relentless turmoil. Having felt disconnected, isolated, and not able to make sense of blatant hypocrisy, women realize that the only answer to their survival is to tread the “wilderness” of rejection, which ultimately strengthens them to totally submit to God’s Spirit. Dr. Epps reminds women that in moments of indecision, God offers them a breakthrough revelation that they need to confront their trials and overcome their obstacles. Only in the wilderness can they discover their true path in life, ministry, fellowship, and anointing. There’s Enough Woman Left to Be Your Lady is a companion for every woman who wants to walk through even the most difficult days side by side with her Lord.

Window Of My Soul
$21.99Add to cartIt has been said that if a person can remember ten percent of a speech, he or she is doing well. That certainly goes for me, which is why I regularly take notes. However, many years ago I attended a seminar taught by a dear friend whose teachings I greatly respect. I have remembered one point from that seminar: When you pray, quit asking God, “Help me do this or that” (which doesn’t mean that sometimes we don’t need help). Rather, ask God, “Commit me to do today what is right.” If I am committed to do what is right each day, God directs me to make better decisions. Of course, I sometimes say or do the wrong thing. After all, I am just a pilgrim here. I ask forgiveness for the mistakes, learn from them, and press on to the goal set before me. I give God all the glory and praise for the words of encouragement He has given to me. As I share them, my prayer is that others will be encouraged as well.

Memorandums From A Loving God
$15.99Add to cartDoes God speak directly to His children? If He does, do His children really want to listen? Are they ready to listen, or are they like the children of Israel who feared His voice? Not only does God talk to His children as a loving Father, but He also looks for and searches out those who are willing to listen and be obedient to His Word. Contained within these pages are some personal messages, recorded over a twelve-year period, that God has spoken to one of his sons-who has chosen to remain anonymous to avoid distracting attention away from the Author and Finisher of our faith. From those messages emerged an insight into the Holy Scripture of how we, the Body of Christ, need to devour God’s Word so we may live it. From an evaluation of these messages and instructions came an observation that the spectrum of Christianity goes from one extreme to another. The first is “intellectualism,” which has led to apostasy. The other extreme is physical immersion in the move of the Holy Spirit, which often lacks a truly in-depth knowledge of the Word of God. We need to understand our existence and purpose in this earthly realm, first as living, active members of the Body of Christ, and then in our current position in heaven as children and heirs of God and joint-heirs with our Lord Jesus. We need to devour the written Word to become the spoken Word. We need to stop seeing ourselves as just believers in the Word. We need to become “existers” in the Word That Became Flesh as living, active, obedient members of that Body, listening and responding to the Head. Contained within these Memorandums from a Loving God and the excerpted Guidelines for Victorious Prayer are clear instructions on how to live victoriously to fulfill God’s promises and the expressions of an infinite, loving Father toward His children.

Why should churches heal? Does your church touch the lives of broken people and bring healing to their hurts? How does your church become that healing force that glorifies God and impacts whole communities? In a desperately hurting world full of toxic relationships, crippled values, and mutilated mortality, lives are crying out for real healing — not drug-induced solutions, not psychobabble band-aids, but authentic answers that heal the heart, soul, and mind. There is only one source for such healing power. The church that was built on the One who said to the world, “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened.” The question is not can we become a church that heals shattered lives but will we.

Your Inheritance : The Kingdom Of God
$15.49Add to cartMy goal in writing this little book is to help us get to know God our Father better and open our eyes to the blessings He has given us so we will live as His heirs of the kingdom that is and is to come.

It is in knowing the Jewish scriptures and customs that we will come to understand the ministry and teachings of Jesus, the Messiah! You certainly have accomplished this in your wonderful book. Respectfully Submitted, Dr. Gene Boone

My Journey To Paradise
$27.49Add to cartThis is the first-hand story of a Cambodian boy who found himself caught in the crossfire of civil war and then under the cruel oppression of the Khmer Rouge Communist regime. Enduring what is described in this book should have made him an emotional cripple. But God had other plans. He survived the Khmer Rouge holocaust, and when presented with an opportunity to go to America, he did so. He then took advantage of America’s educational opportunities and studied to become a dentist. After becoming a Christian, the hatred and bitterness he felt toward those who destroyed many of his relatives and friends turned to forgiveness. Where once he lived for revenge, he now lives to bring healing to others and to share the love of God. This book tells about what happens when men live without God. It also shows the providence of God in saving someone in great danger. It shows the power of the Gospel to change hate into love. It shows how the freedoms and opportunities available in America can equip a person to become a constructive citizen if he works hard to make his dreams a reality. This is a book of hope!

When Two Worlds Collide
$18.99Add to cartThe pundits of television and radio, friends and relatives daily feed us an endless stream of well-meaning advice in how to successfully deal with life’s vicissitudes and problematic situations. We are pulled this way and that way like rudderless boats cast upon a series of huge waves caught in a tempest by whomever or whatever exerts the most influence upon us at any particular point in time. Our life has no direction, but that which is imposed upon us by events and seemingly knowledgeable people. In Barbara Engels’ newest book, When Two Worlds Collide, the author through continuing the story of the Cole family dares to suggest to the reader that he ‘be still’. In a world where we feverishly turn to Oprah or Dr. Laura or Dr. Phil or any other popular expert for our daily dose of advice, it is radical indeed to tell the reader to ‘be still’. Engels dares to suggest that we do the unthinkable and when the ominous black clouds of a problem swirl about us that we ‘be still’, and let our Creator speak to us and solutions will be found.

Love Letters To The Church
$13.49Add to cartLove Letters to the Church is a clarion cry from a loving God to the body of Christ, to KNOW HIM, not just know about Him. He longs to draw us with cords of love into the intimate closeness that can come only from knowing His heart. A person could spend his whole life in church doing all the things he feels a Christian should do and never really come to know the God of his salvation. Yes, we can repeat the sinner’s prayer, but “getting saved” and becoming a believer is not just about getting fire insurance to keep us out of hell. True Christianity is all about a personal relationship with the living God, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit. As you feel God’s heartstrings drawing you to a closer and more passionate walk, may you also hear Him calling you to be part of His end-time army, and ultimately, His victorious church. You will be telling the Good News of Jesus, healing the sick, setting the captives free, and preparing a people for Christ’s return. The time is too short; we must be ready. Occupy! Occupy! Occupy!

Jesus Christ : And The Last Crusade
$25.99Add to cartEarth has met its deadline! Ambassador Shane is here to warn you that Jesus Christ is your only escape from the soon coming horrors. The Prophetic Time Clock of Doom, upon striking the preset hour on its dial, shall usher in the events foretold, as surely as God is God. Secret things belong to God, but things revealed belong to us (Deuteronomy 29:29). God outlined and blueprinted his mysterious “End of the World” millennia ago, in scriptures known as end-time prophecies. These have been hidden from man’s understanding until a time that God designated as “The End” (Daniel 12:9-10). That’s today! Dr. Shane explores man from Paradise Lost to Paradise Restored, destroying half-truths and whole lies while inflicting death on evil. Cracking the codes that solve the mysteries of the universe, he explains the signs, symbols, types, shadows, times, and seasons, including the Rapture, Tribulation, Antichrist, Armageddon, and the Millennial Kingdom unto the Eternal State. He explores the Bible and end-time prophecy’s single theme, which is: Very soon, Jesus Christ shall be fully revealed or apocalypsed on earth as Almighty God, King, Ruler, and Judge of all men everywhere and disposer of their eternal destinies. Jesus is coming soon! Are you ready?

Recovering Biblical Ministry By Women
$28.49Add to cartAccording to a Christianity Today reader survey about gender roles: Seventy-eight percent of respondents think: “Christian leaders need to speak out on proper roles for men and women.” Eighty-eight percent agreed: “There is a lot of confusion about male and female roles in the Christian world today…. The key actors in the evangelical debate have clearly reached an impasse.” (March 2002) This book proposes careful but clear biblical answers to all questions: It is based on the inerrancy of Scripture and rejects the deculturizing hermeneutic. It is not egalitarian. It provides irrefutable exegetical evidence for the husband’s authority in marriage. It affirms family values. It is not radically complementarian. It provides in depth refutation of eighty-five different objections and restrictions to ministry by women in the church. It frees women to serve Christ fully. Dr. John H. Armstrong, President: “Reformation and Revival Ministries, Inc.” “I have found it the most satisfying exposition of the Holy Scriptures on this subject that I have read in thirty years of thought and exegetical work.”

$13.49Add to cartThis book is designed to promote thanksgiving and meditation by applying Scriptures to everyday life.

Footprints In My Rearview Mirror
$17.49Add to cartPeople leave footprints that run through other lives. Sometimes they gradually increase to make a path, which becomes a trail, then a rutted road, a highway, a freeway, and on and on into one’s fading memories. Some of them are but little puffs in the dust or snow, while others are huge craters and ruts in the mud that leave big scars or become great indelible lessons about life as one passes through the world system toward eternity. The people and events mentioned in this book are real and are recorded as accurately as possible. So as not to misrepresent anyone or anything, many unclear parts have been omitted. The Japanese American WWII experience had a heavy impact on the circumstances that shaped the sociological, psychological, and spiritual post-war life of Mr. Oiye. This book is written to illustrate how God chose the author to become a believer and follower of Jesus Christ as his Savior and Lord from the beginning, and how He guarantees that it will not only happen, but He will continue to provide the means to match the circumstance. “Just getting old is a sterile way of life, but growing old gracefully is a God-given gift.”

Journey
$23.99Add to cartDo you desire freedom from religious bondage? Are you frustrated with rules? The Journey is a true story that chronicles an extraordinary search for the existence of God. The story begins with her ancestors from whom she has received blessings and cursings. She discovers that dark, unseen forces have her under surveillance, watching for an opportune time to bring her into temptation and deception. Her carnal nature falls prey to the influence of ungodly temptations, and she is lured into the world of fleeting pleasure and sin. Seeking relief from her dilemma catapults her into a smorgasbord of erroneous religious groups. As she adheres to the rules and rituals of religion, she realizes that keeping rules does not tame the carnal beast within. She exchanges her life of sin for one of self-righteousness, false humility, and counterfeit Christianity. Family casualties become a byproduct of her journey, and they are left behind in the tumultuous aftermath. Who can rescue her? Only One-Jesus Christ! Discovering the truth, her journey takes a sharp turn. She realizes she has not been following God’s true path, but man’s interpretation of it. She undergoes spiritual surgery that removes the false belief systems she had embraced, and she finds the true freedom that Christ proclaimed: “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.”

Think It Not Strange
$13.49Add to cartChronic pain interferes with hopes, dreams, plans and goals. It meddles with the mind and can be a real heart breaker. For the Christian, however, long-term pain can bring meaning and reveal purposes that would otherwise go unnoticed. Coping with chronic pain is a challenge, but certainly not impossible. There is hope. For twelve years this author has suffered with the remnants of eight spinal operations and a degenerative condition that daily deposits pain into her life’s account. Suffering ones eagerly anticipate the Lord’s return, when He will grant new bodies and bring His own children to a place where there is no more death, sorrow, crying, or pain (Revelation 21:4). Until then, though, we are responsible to live by His Word and worship Him in Spirit and in truth. Like some medications, though, the truth is difficult to swallow sometimes. That is why we must live our lives (painful or not) in Christ, relying on Him to see us through each moment of the day, in peace. Pain’s invasion does not have to rob us of inner joy. We can even make peace with the pain and survive its torment graciously. The Lord will help us! “But as for me, I would seek God, and to God I would commit my cause, who does great things, and unsearchable, marvelous things without number” (Job 5:8-9).

Are You Following Jesus
$15.99Add to cartWhat other noted ministers are saying about this book: “With no apologies, Ray Cummings calls today’s Christians on the carpet for the thoughtless compromises that creep into daily life and soil the Savior’s witness. Read through the work and you will find it reading you.” Dr. Harry L. Lucenay -Writer/Conference Speaker/Former Pastor of First Baptist Church -San Antonio, TX. “Dr. Cummings cuts to the heart of the matter. . . . If you are serious about growing in your faith . . . read and learn from Dr. Cummings’ insight and experience.” Dr. Ryan F. Whitley -Pastor of First Baptist Church of Center Point -Birmingham, AL. In Are You Following Jesus or Just Fooling Around? author Ray Cummings has chosen some oxymorons through which God has challenged him in his own personal walk with the Lord. Dr. Cummings focuses each chapter on spiritual evaluations that may help determine whether or not we are truly following Jesus. At the close of each chapter, the character of Christ is contrasted with the actions of many Christians. The goal of this work is that when readers view their inconsistencies in light of God’s unchanging character, they would have a greater desire to be “imitators of Christ” (Ephesians 5:1). May God allow you to be honest with yourself as you personalize this book by seeking to answer the question: “Am I Following Jesus or Just Fooling Around?”

Marketplace Priest
$15.99Add to cartIn Marketplace Priest, Frank Marinkovich, M.D. presents us two ways to conduct business. There is a way of a career versus the way of holy calling. A career is a self-chosen pursuit. It is based on something rational such as security, necessity, vacation, or parental desire. Maybe it satisfies your need for identity. A holy calling is a destiny that was birthed in the heart of God. A calling awakens you to the reality that your destiny started in eternity first in the mind and heart of God. Do you know God, and has God set you free? Then concurrent with that liberty is a mandate to set the culture free. This culture is the area that you are in: business, law, medicine, the arts, government, the trades, etc. It is of necessity that Scripture exhorts us to wake up. Liberation is our calling, cultural reform our mandate. The method starts with who you are. It starts with the nature of Christ, the Spirit of sonship. This book is a must read for all those involved in the marketplace as it will awaken you to God’s destiny, to bring transformation to you and to your sphere of influence. “If there ever was a timely book, this is one. Here is a medical doctor, Frank Marinkovich, cognizant of the concern of the Lord for our vocational calling. He writes in such a practical manner about the “how to” in taking truth out of the meeting place into the market place. In a very clear and definitive fashion we are challenged to see the workplace as an open door of ministry. It is rare today to find someone other than a church leader with such insights and convictions. This is a must read for every member of the body of Christ who desires to make a difference in the marketplace.” JAMES HAMMAN President, Foundations Ministries “As the Spirit of God continues to awaken and endorse those called to marketplace ministries, many new books will emerge. Some will be filled with inspiration and some simply with information. Frank Marinkovich has eclipsed them both; his book is filled with revelation, and the best part of it all is that he is living it out in his life and in his business.” DENNIS PEACOCKE President, Strategic Christian Services “Dr Frank Marinkovich is certainly qualified to speak about this very important subject. I have personally observed him as he has dealt with the issues of health and life purpose with many people, including my wife and I and many of our staff members. His insight into the marketplace and your purpose in life will encourage you and his passion

Living In Darkness And Fear
$24.99Add to cartWILL THERE EVER BE PEACE? As the year 2000 approached, many people were filled with fear, believing the world would end or Jesus would return.

Prescription For The Impotent Christian
$15.99Add to cartImpotent, ineffective, fruitless, unproductive-you pick the word that best describes how you’ve been living out your Christianity. You seem to be doing and saying all the right things, but do you yearn for something more? Does it seem as though every time you try to live for God you screw up? Why does it seem to be so hard to live the way we’re supposed to? Do you feel as though you’re missing something? You may be! Jesus said in Matthew 11:28-30 (NIV): “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” You may be quite content with where you are in your Christian “walk”-if so, then this book is not for you. If, however, you would like to understand what Jesus was talking about, then read on. It will unleash a power in your life unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before. It truly is “A Prescription for the Impotent Christian.”

Harvesting Spiritual Fruit
$13.49Add to cartMillions of Americans have turned to books on prayer in hopes of attaining God’s favor and wonderful blessings. In Harvesting Spiritual Fruit – Following God’s Path to True Love, Joy and Peace, Jonathan Niemeyer now takes us beyond prayer to Christian living through a practical application of Galatians 5:22, the fruit of the spirit. Mr. Niemeyer contends that God, although He obviously invites us and even instructs us to come before Him in prayer, is also keenly interested in how we live our lives when not praying as well. He maintains that a simple verse of Paul’s letter to the Galatians holds phenomenal promise for those of us who truly employ the fruit of the spirit — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control — in our relationships with God, our spouses, our children, our friends and our neighbors. Faithfully applying the fruit of the spirit to our lives is much easier said than done, but the rewards – pure love, joy and peace — can be everlasting!

Miracles And Wonders
$32.00Add to cart208 Pages
Additional Info
At some time or another, nearly everyone needs a miracle. Failing health, financial difficulties, deteriorating relationships all are problems that make people cry out for divine intervention. But while Scripture offers numerous examples of God performing miracles for ancient generations from Moses and the burning bush to the loaves and fishes that fed 5,000 does He still do it in the 21st century? Author Calvin Miller investigates, delving into the Scriptures and drawing on modern testimonials to find the answer. He examines the Bible’s most famous miracles from the Virgin Birth to the Resurrection of Christ, analyzes the discrepancy between science and miracle, and explores such perplexing questions as why God chooses to intervene on some occasions but not on others. By illuminating God’s patterns, Miller reaches a conclusion that offers a tremendous source of faith and inspiration: Yes, God breaks His natural laws to bless mankind with His mercy, compassion, and love. -
