Awe Of God
$29.99Add to cartDo you long for an intimate relationship with your Creator, but He seems elusive? Perhaps it is because something utterly essential is missing-holy fear. Don’t let this frighten you. Fearing God is very different than being afraid of God. It’s the key to everything.
The fear of the Lord is not a topic you’ll hear much about these days. But if you want to build a faith that stands strong through troubled times, you cannot afford to ignore this book.In The Awe of God, John Bevere invites you to take a fresh look at what it means to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. This healthy, holy, and largely forgotten virtue is the uncommon path to a more fulfilled and fruitful life. In this book you will see why godly fear is the foundation of:
*Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge
*Foresight, clarity, and divine direction
*Maturity and conformity to the image of Jesus Christ
*Building an eternal legacy
*Confidence, fearlessness, and security
*Freedom from the fear of man as all lesser fears are eclipsedIf you look at the men and women in Scripture, the ones who lived and finish well all have one thing in common: they are marked by holy fear.
The Awe of God was designed to be read slowly and intentionally. At the end of each of the 42 chapters are five tools to help you deepen your understanding and apply what the Spirit of God is teaching you. Experience the intimate relationship with God that you have always longed for by unlocking this countercultural message.

New Kind Of Love
$15.99Add to cartThe two greatest forces in the world today are love and selfishness. Natural human love has failed because it is based upon selfishness.
Does God have a solution for this problem? We believe that He has. It is The New Kind of Love that has been overlooked by the church but has recently been rediscovered.
This book unveils the new kind of love that Jesus brought to the world. This love comes into a barren life and makes it blossom as a rose. It takes away the hardness and bitterness of life. There will be no empty lives, no barren lives. Every life may become a garden of delight. God has made it possible.
To walk in love is actually to live in God. It is the realm where the Word dominates, where faith functions. Faith grows in the atmosphere of love. It becomes a dominating and creative force when love really rules.
This new kind of love, agape, was born in the realm of divine revelation. It is a deep and profound sacrificial love that transcends and persists regardless of circumstances.

$24.99Add to cartRace complicates our relationships, even when we reject racism and seek to walk a better path together. How can we get our thinking?and our conversations?unstuck from entrenched patterns? In this book, four experts in psychology and social work present a model for how to build and deepen the cross-race relationships we want.

Recalibrate Your Life
$18.99Add to cartAs we make our way through life, we find ourselves in times of transition where we need to reassess who we are and what we do.
Living well doesn’t happen automatically for followers of Christ–it happens when we have planned ahead by reviewing and recalibrating our lives on a regular basis, and when we transition from one stage of life to the next. Times of transition, especially in midlife or later life, are ideal moments for recalibrating our priorities and habits.
Ken Boa and Jenny Abel give us the perspective and practical tools needed to evaluate our God-given gifts, talents, skills, wisdom, knowledge, resources, and opportunities so we can use them to the full extent God desires. It involves an intentional recalibration and envisioning of one’s life based on God’s universal and unique purposes for each person as we move from the demands of our careers into a deeper sense of calling. This eternal perspective allows us to live meaningfully now and into the future so that the best is yet to come.

Jesus Revolution Movie Edition
$18.99Add to cartNow a major motion picture
The Jesus Movement transformed the church–and it can transform you
God has always been passionate about turning unlikely people into His most fervent followers. Prostitutes and pagans, tax collectors and tricksters, the pompous and the pious–the more unlikely, the more it seemed to please God to demonstrate His power, might, and mercy through them. America in the 1960s and 1970s was full of many such characters–young men and women who had rejected the conformist religion of their parents’ generation, didn’t follow conventional rules, and didn’t fit in. Their longing for something more set the stage for the greatest spiritual awakening of the twentieth century.
Discover the remarkable true story of the Jesus Movement, an extraordinary time of mass revival, renewal, and reconciliation. Setting intriguing personal stories within the context of one of the most tumultuous times in modern history, Greg Laurie and Ellen Vaughn draw important parallels with our own time of spiritual apathy and overt hostility, offering a new vision for the next generation of unlikely believers–and hope for the next great American revival.
Because God can always bring a new Jesus Revolution.

He Gets Us
$14.99Add to cartJesus understands our lives because he was human too. He faced the same hardships and personal struggles that we encounter on a daily basis. He felt our deepest sadness and experienced our darkest solitude. Above all, Jesus gets us.
In Jesus’ time, communities were deeply divided by bitter differences in religious beliefs, political positions, income inequality, legal status, and ethnic differences. But where was Jesus in all of this? Did he align with the religious elites? Or did he start an uprising to overthrow them? Neither of the above.
Instead, he went from town to town, offering hope, new life, and modeling a different way to live and to change the world. Instead of pursuing power, money, or religious authority, he shared a loving and sacrificially generous way of living–he championed a better way. But how can we understand the Jesus of the Bible today?

Was Jesus ever stressed?
Was Jesus ever lonely?
Did Jesus ever mourn?
Did Jesus have fun?
How did Jesus deal with injustice?
Was Jesus fed up with politics?

This Here Flesh
$18.00Add to cartIn her stunning debut, the creator of Black Liturgies weaves stories from three generations of her family alongside contemplative reflections to discover the necessary rituals that connect us with our belonging, dignity, and liberation.
“From the womb, we must repeat with regularity that to love ourselves is to survive. I believe that is what my father wanted for me and knew I would so desperately need: a tool for survival, the truth of my dignity named like a mercy new each morning.”
So writes Cole Arthur Riley in her unforgettable book of stories and reflections on discovering the sacred in her skin. In these deeply transporting pages, Arthur Riley reflects on the stories of her grandmother and father, and how they revealed to her an embodied, dignity-affirming spirituality, not only in what they believed but in the act of living itself. Writing memorably of her own childhood and coming to self, Arthur Riley boldly explores some of the most urgent questions of life and faith: How can spirituality not silence the body, but instead allow it to come alive? How do we honor, lament, and heal from the stories we inherit? How can we find peace in a world overtaken with dislocation, noise, and unrest? In this indelible work of contemplative storytelling, Arthur Riley invites us to descend into our own stories, examine our capacity to rest, wonder, joy, rage, and repair, and find that our humanity is not an enemy to faith but evidence of it.
At once a compelling spiritual meditation, a powerful intergenerational account, and a tender coming-of-age narrative, This Here Flesh speaks potently to anyone who suspects that our stories might have something to say to us.

Unoffendable : How Just One Change Can Make All Of Life Better (Revised)
$19.99Add to cartUnoffendable, now revised and updated, gives you a concrete, practical way to live life with less stress. In our easily offended, cancel-culture society, learn how to replace perpetual frustration and anger with refreshing humility and gratitude.
It turns out giving up your right to be offended can be one of the most freeing, healthy, simplifying, relaxing, refreshing, stress-relieving, encouraging things you can do. It’s a radical, provocative idea: We’re not entitled to get offended or stay angry. The idea of our own righteous anger is a myth. It is the number one problem in our societies today and, as Dallas Willard says, Christians have not been taught out of it. But what if Christians were the most unoffendable people on the planet?
In Unoffendable you will find concrete, practical ways to live life with less stress, including:
*adjusting your expectations to fit human nature;
*replacing perpetual anger with refreshing humility and gratitude; and
*embracing forgiveness and beginning to love others in unexpected ways.In a humorous and conversational style, Unoffendable seeks to lift religious burdens from our backs and allow us to experience the joy of gratitude, perhaps for the first time, every single day of our lives–flourishing the way God intended.

Are You Ready To Find Joy In Your Messy Life
$15.99Add to cartA Carole Leathem Title
When Carole Leathem’s husband, Bill, first began his battle with anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts, she had no idea years of rejection and identity issues would come to a head. After all, when you’re the wife of a senior pastor, there are certain expectations that come with it. Imperfection and mental illness are not among them. Managing depression in marriage and setting relationship boundaries brought pain, uncertainty, and rejection, which were nearly unbearable. Whenever Carole surrendered to God, he showed up time and time again.
As Carole searched for practical help, she shares, “My husband’s mental health was the most important issue.

It’s time to reclaim your agency and design your best self and best life with four practical steps to lasting change.
Born to a seventeen-year-old mother on the gang-permeated streets of Dallas, Texas, BJ Thompson understood that as a Black man his starting place was disadvantaged, under-resourced, and unequipped. However, as he did with Moses in the wilderness, God prompted BJ to look down and see what was in his hands. What BJ thought was a disqualifying story actually qualified him.

Now an influential life coach, BJ has inspired millions and coached more than 10,000 people toward transformation with his propriety model. It’s your turn now. BJ wants to help you get unstuck, overcome your unique hurdles, and enact real, lasting change in your life.
In Awaken a Better You, you’ll unlock mental, emotional, relational, physical, and spiritual wholeness by using BJ’s four steps to transformation:
– Desperation: Identify a problem you desperately want to change.
– Information: Research the problem, unlearn built-in ideas, and vet this data through proof of concept.
– Application: Build a practical plan and take active steps to make the change.
– Transformation: Celebrate change and embrace a mindset of continual growth.
Using compelling tales of success, thoughtful reflections, and biblical examples, BJ invites you to apply these lessons and steps to your own story. Each chapter includes questions designed to jumpstart your transformation journey alongside journaling space for reflection.

It sometimes feels like we’re all holding our breath-just waiting for the next outrage, tragedy, or stressor to knock us back again. Yes, a global pandemic forced us to be more physically isolated from one another.

This fresh vision to reclaim our love and joy leads us to a collective breath of air as we exchange division for real relationship. We can live up to our full potential. We can learn to trust and care for one another. We can see the humanity in those different from ourselves. We can navigate hard times with grit, kindness, and a good joke or two. In this book Carlos shows us how to move from me to we to everybody. Isn’t it time we embrace the life-changing, hope-filled promise of being fully human?

Breaking The Spirit Of Delilah
$19.99Add to cartA demonic spirit has placed a slumbering stranglehold on many highly anointed saints in the modern church. Its mission is to stop believers from fulfilling their destiny by seducing, enticing, and berating them so that they fall asleep, forgetting their true purpose and giving Satan an advantage over God’s people.
This is the spirit of Delilah. Although the woman named Delilah in Judges 16 was flesh and blood, a demonic spirit controlled her to bring down Samson, one of the mightiest warriors of the Bible. The spirit of Delilah is still thriving amid God’s people today, conspiring to weaken them and thwart their purpose in Christ.
Prophetic minister Andrew Towe wrote Breaking the Spirit of Delilah: Accessing God’s Power to Topple Ancient Strongholds after an encounter with the Lord in which He revealed the enemy’s agenda to entice believers into a passionless Christianity that is void of power. God commissioned Andrew to expose the spirit whose assignment is to lull God’s warriors into a deadening sleep that leaves them powerless.
Breaking the Spirit of Delilah contains explosive information concerning Christian living, spiritual warfare, prayer, and revival.
*If you believe the gifts of the Holy Spirit are not for you…
*If you believe God does not have a plan for your life…
*If you’re not sure God’s Word can be trusted…Then this book is for you! Don’t let the spirit of Delilah make you weak and powerless! Join the fight to expose this wicked spirit and advance God’s kingdom.

Its Our Turn Now
$19.99Add to cartHow can we ever hope for the world to get better if we keep limiting what God can do?
After reading this book, you will step up with courage to be a part of the hope that the world needs against a destructive culture. God has called you to be a witness of light in the middle of the darkness, and you will obey Him with boldness and integrity.
Everyone living on the planet today has a front-row seat to the failure of communism, socialism, and immorality. People are sick to death of the fabrications, lies, control, and tyranny. Mario Murillo draws on his recent experiences in California, where his ministry is experiencing souls being saved at a rate that surpasses even what was seen during the Jesus movement of the 1960s and ’70s. It’s accelerating, and Murillo believes it’s a worldwide trend that has us poised for an unprecedented opportunity as the body of Christ. We must seize this moment!
In It’s Our Turn Now, Murillo explains why now is the time for Christians to do the following:
*Explain why everything man has taught us is bankrupting our morals and our souls
*Display the supernatural with integrity and clarity that we’ve not seen before
*Answer directly the questions that are truly on the hearts and minds of the human raceWe are no longer the remnant. There are millions of us, and it’s time to stop believing the false reports and listen to what people around us are feeling. We have the answers a hungry world is dying for. Only the gospel of Jesus Christ can deliver us, and only the church can change the world through its power. It’s our turn to step up and stop limiting God.

Why is it that so many Christians find it difficult to develop a vibrant and exciting prayer life? Even though prayer is foundational to the Christian life, many are intimidated or uncertain about how to talk to God.

Praying The Names Of God For 52 Weeks
$19.99Add to cartBased on Praying the Names of God and Praying the Names of Jesus, two bestselling books by Ann Spangler, this unique Bible study is designed to help individuals explore the most prominent names God chooses for Himself and how each name can be used in focused, intentional prayer as God reveals His character and heart throughout the Bible.
Names in the ancient world did more than simply distinguish one person from another. They often conveyed the essential nature and character of a person. This is especially true when it comes to the names of God recorded in the Old Testament: El Shaddai, Elohim, Adonai, Abba, El Elyon, God Almighty, Mighty Creator, Lord, Father, God Most High, and more. In the New Testament, God is called Immanuel, Prince of Peace, Lamb of God, Bread of Life, Yeshua, and more. Through His names and titles, we come to understand more fully how God reveals His heart to us.
Praying the Names of God for 52 Weeks teaches you how to use one name each week of the year to pray to God in an intentional and focused way.
Each name or title is broken down into three sections each week:
*Monday: Study a portion of Scripture that reveals the name.
*Tuesday-Thursday: Understand and connect to the name through questions and reflections. Pray the name in Scripture and pray the name for yourself.
*Friday: Pray Scripture promises connected to the name. Optional Deeper Study.
Ultimately, you’ll gain a more intimate understanding of who God is and how He can be relied upon in every circumstance of your life, enabling you to echo the psalmist’s prayer: Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.

Pastor and Author Jared Longshore argues that the church’s neglect of covenantal living has led us to this pass in American society.
While invisible, saving faith in Jesus is the only way to eternal life, modern Americans have neglected the grace that God gives by binding families and churches to Him and to one another.
This means that families, the church, and nations should take responsibility for their people, and not treat them as so many marbles in a box. God has intimately connected us to one another in these bonds, the central bond being covenant.
We must retrieve this doctrine and live faithfully by it if we want to see reform in America.

Learning Humility : A Year Of Searching For A Vanishing Virtue
$19.99Add to cartIn a society where raging narcissism dominates the moral landscape, the virtue of humility is often dismissed as irrelevant.
Not only is humility vanishing from contemporary culture, but we are also witnessing how destructive a lack of humility has become among our churches and ministry leaders. And yet, Richard Foster, the founder of Renovare, insists that humility is central to the journey toward character formation and spiritual transformation. For this reason he decided to spend a year studying the virtue of humility.
Using the Lakota calendar as a framework, Foster provides us with a look into the insights he gathered from sources ranging from Native American culture to Julian of Norwich to Scripture to personal friends. By engaging with both the spiritual classics and Foster’s own experiences, Learning Humility provides profound insight into what humility can look like in our current cultural climate.
Join Richard Foster on the journey toward a life of humility, which he says leads us into “freedom, joy, and holy hilarity.”

Covenant Household
$14.95Add to cartFamilies are formed by covenants. But what is a covenant, and what does that mean for your family?
Throughout Scripture, God makes covenants with His people. This is not just a contract, but a personal bond in which God takes responsibility for His people, and His people respond to him in faith. This is true of our relationship with God, and it is true in the case of lesser covenants, such as the covenant family.
In this short book, Pastor Douglas Wilson shows how the family should live in the light of what the Bible says about the covenant. The husband is the head of the household, and this means that the problems of the family members are not their problems but his problems. The husband cannot just dismiss his wife’s problems as something she needs to work through by herself, and the father cannot complain when his kids get into trouble. They are his people.
This book covers everything from marriage to childrearing to cultural engagement. The family is not just a collection of individuals: it is a unit joined together by God, and we should live as though that were true, because it is.

Word Before Work
$16.00Add to cartA weekday devotional to help Christians connect the gospel to their vocation and appreciate the eternal significance of their work–no matter what it is–from the entrepreneur, thought leader, and bestselling author of Redeeming Your Time.
We often treat the sixth day as the end of the creation account. But day six is just the beginning! It’s when God passed the baton to us and in essence said, “Go work and create like me.”
Too often Christians are led to believe that only pastors and full-time missionaries are doing work that is eternally significant. But Christians who work outside of vocational ministry roles–be they entrepreneurs, baristas, or stay-at-home parents–are looking for affirmation that their work is eternally impactful as well. Having researched more than 1,000 passages of scripture for its wisdom on vocation, Jordan Raynor provides 260 readings–one for each workday of the year–that offer Christians in any occupation biblical insights into what work means, why it matters, and how they should be working.
Guiding readers through selections in Old and New Testaments, The Word Before Work shows us that, no matter our calling, the work we do is central to God’s plans to restore fallen creation. Readers will not only gain daily inspiration to do work for the glory of God and the good of others, but will come away confident that our work has significance both for now and for eternity.

Strong And Weak
$18.99Add to cartFlourishing people are strong and weak.
Two common temptations lure us away from abundant living: withdrawing into safety and grasping for power. True flourishing, says Andy Crouch, travels down an unexpected path–being both strong and weak.
We see this unlikely mixture in the best leaders–people who use their authority for the benefit of others while also showing extraordinary willingness to face and embrace suffering. We see it in Jesus, who wielded tremendous power yet also exposed himself to hunger, ridicule, torture and death. Rather than being opposites, strength and weakness are actually meant to be combined in every human life and community.
With the characteristic insight, memorable stories and hopeful realism he is known for, Andy Crouch shows us how to walk this path so that the image of God can shine through us. Not just for our own good, but for the sake of others.
With a new preface by the author, Strong and Weak is now part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press. A new companion Bible study is also available.

Mucky Business : Why Christians Should Get Involved In Politics

Out Of The Embers
$24.99Add to cartDeconstruction: Trendy brand name for falling away from belief in God? Or a process essential to authentic faith?
Liberation or trauma? Prison break or exile?
It’s complicated. Just like you.
Christian history records a Great Reformation and a Great Awakening. But today’s “Great Deconstruction” will surely leave an equally profound impact.
In Out of the Embers, Bradley Jersak explores the necessity, perils, and possibilities of the Great Deconstruction-how it has the potential to either sabotage our communion with God or infuse it with the breath of life, the light and life of Christ himself.
In this collection of vulnerable memoirs, philosophical memos, and candid provocations, Jersak resists both the hand-wringing urge to corral stray sheep and the exultant desire to play the happy-clappy Ex-vangelical cheerleader. He employs the wisdom and expertise of the great deconstructionists-Christianity’s ancient influences (Moses, Plato, Paul, and the Patristics), “beloved frenemies” (from Voltaire to Nietzsche), and the masters of deconstruction (Dostoevsky, Kierkegaard, and Weil)-to double down and deconstruct deconstruction itself.
Where is faith after deconstruction? The author’s heart is to engage and empathize with the bereft and disoriented, stoking the brittle ashes for live embers. In this quest for the resilient gospel of the martyrs, the marginal, and those outside the threshold…inexplicably, in this liminal space, life stirs. A Light shines through the ashes. We find, often for the first time, that living connection Jersak calls “presence in communion.”
There is a sea change occurring across the Western church and civilization. Whether we’re watching a radical course correction or a complete collapse remains to be seen, and how it pans out will likely depend on how we see what’s happening, who we are becoming, how we live in response-and, most important, where we find Christ situated in this storm.

Wonders Of Creation
$22.99Add to cartWhen an author of fiction employs the imagination and sets characters in a new location, they are in a sense creating a world. Might such fictional worlds give us a deeper appreciation for our own?
Many readers have found themselves, like the Pevensie children, transported by C. S. Lewis into Narnia, and they have traveled from Lantern Waste to Cair Paravel and the edge of the sea. Thanks to J. R. R. Tolkien, readers have also journeyed with Bilbo, Frodo, and their companions across Middle-earth from the Shire to the Lonely Mountain, the forest of Mirkwood, the mines of Moria, and the very fires of Mount Doom. But as often as we enter these fictional worlds as readers, we eventually return to our world refreshed with sharpened insight.
In The Wonders of Creation, biologist Kristen Page explores the beloved fictional landscapes of Narnia and Middle-earth in order to discover what we might learn about real-life landscapes and how to become better stewards of God’s good creation.
The Hansen Lectureship Series offers accessible and insightful reflections by Wheaton College faculty members on the transformative work of the Wade Center authors.

Power Of Group Prayer
$18.99Add to cartRevival starts when people pray together.
Christians often dream about the possibility of revival. But revival doesn’t come because we wish or plan for it. Revival occurs when groups of people pray together. However, praying together effectively doesn’t come easily, and we’re often left wondering how to best engage in the work of intercession.
Carolyn Carney offers a practical guide for those who want something more than “just another prayer meeting.” Drawing from decades of ministry experience, The Power of Group Prayer includes stories and practices for corporate prayer, reflection questions, and supplemental resources to help build powerful intercession groups. Pastors, small group leaders, and campus ministry leaders-or anyone who wants a deeper prayer life-will be equipped to lead others in the kind of prayer that is necessary for effective, resilient ministry.
Praying together has the power to transform you and the world around you. Come to a place of deep intimacy with God as you learn ways to pray in community.

Heart Speak : A Visual Interpretation Of Let Your Life Speak
$18.99Add to cartIn this visual interpretation of a classic work, Sherrill Knezel brings Parker J. Palmer’s bestselling book Let Your Life Speak to life. With more than seventy heartfelt images to go along with excerpts from Palmer, Heart Speak pairs these images with brief personal reflections. Readers are invited to explore and embrace both their own limits and potential, as they listen to their inner voice, and courageously following its lead.
I’m very excited about the way Sherrill has used her gifts of art and insight to interpret and express some of the key ideas in Let Your Life Speak, Palmer writes in the preface. Clearly, images speak to a wider range of people than words alone, and are helpful even to ‘word people’ like me. Think of traffic signs that feature an upturned palm that clearly says ‘Stop!, ‘ or a snake-like line that says, ‘Caution, sharp turns ahead!’ Images incarnate words, making them not only more accessible but more actionable as well. Images instantly deliver a message: ‘Here’s something you need to know to negotiate the road you’re on.’
Whether the words of Let Your Life Speak are familiar signposts on the roads you have traveled or they are new to you, you will enjoy this opportunity for reflection and discernment in regard to your life, community, and calling.
