Start Your Day With God
$22.99Add to cartAlways busy and on the move? Slow down and take a moment to meditate on the Word of God. Start your day off with God before getting too busy, rushing from one event or meeting after another. God desires to speak to you: He wants you to know Him better and truly discover who you really are in Him. Jesus prayed to the heavenly Father not to take us out of this world, but that He would keep and protect us from the evil one. Jesus also asked the Father to sanctify us, and the only way we can be truly sanctified is in the Word. “Sanctify them [purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy] by the Truth; Your Word is Truth.” (John 17:17) So be encouraged to start your day with God, discover the truth of God’s Word for yourself, and learn more about yourself and your daily assignment in the Lord.

It is for earthen vessels who know that to be continually molded by His hands-even broken and reformed, if need be-is the only way to keep bearing His hallmark-the only way to continue glorifying the true Potter. From January through December, these daily devotionals, anchored deeply in the Word of God, ask challenging questions about growing pains and comfortable stagnation: * Are we allowing the Potter to do as He pleases with us, the clay? * Do we trust Him to put pressure where it is needed to mold us to His liking, or do we stiffen at and shrink from His touch? * When we arrive at a shape we like, do we grow so proud and possessive of this present form that we disengage ourselves from the wheel to harden into an independent and finished pot to remain permanently “fixed”? This book is for those jars who refuse to stay fixed.

From Moab To Bethlehem
$34.99Add to cartFrom Moab to Bethlehem…Journey to the King is an in-depth study of the biblical book of Ruth. Full of deep insights by author Cynthia Shomaker, it traces the footsteps of Naomi and Ruth and takes the reader on an inspiring journey from doubt, despair and defeat to triumphant faith and satisfying fulfillment. First taught to a small Bible study group, the 44 lessons in From Moab to Bethlehem address issues every person deals with, among them: the temptation to trust in earthly things, failed expectations, responding to loss, disillusionment and despair, past sins and other debilitating conditions, self-doubts and insecurities and false saviors. Along the way, it constantly points the reader to Jesus, the King, the true Savior and Redeemer, who much like Boaz, Ruth’s kinsman-redeemer, is not only able to redeem fully, but to provide “exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think.” This inspirational book challenges us to dare to leave our “Moabs” behind, venture by faith onto the pathway to Bethlehem, the “House of Bread,” and find there in Christ everything we’ll ever need.

Book Of Wisdom By John Gill (Revised)
$29.49Add to cartAbout the Author John Gill (1697 – 1771) was born in Kettering, Northamptonshire. In his youth, he attended Kettering Grammar School, mastering the Latin classics and learning Greek by age eleven. The young scholar also had a love for Hebrew which would follow him throughout his life. At about twelve years of age, Gill heard a sermon from his pastor, William Wallis, whose text came from Genesis 3:9, “And the Lord called unto Adam, and said unto him, where art thou?” He reflected often on the message of Wallis’ sermon and it eventually led to his conversion. It was not until seven years later, however, that young John made a public profession of his faith in Christ, when he was almost nineteen years of age. His first pastoral work was as an intern at age twenty one, and he later became a pastor in Southwark, England. His pastorate lasted 51 years. Gill was an English Bible scholar, and a prolific writer who authored among other things, an expository commentary on the entire Bible. John Gill was a profound scholar whose ministry in some fashion still touches millions of people worldwide. About this Book Unlike human wisdom, the Book of Proverbs is of divine inspiration. The Book of Wisdom is presented as a devotional from John Gill’s commentary on these Proverbs. Book of Wisdom is a tribute offered by the James J. MacCabbee Company to Pastor John Gills’ lifetime of brilliant work. As Proverbs 8:1, “Doth not Wisdom cry?” This daily devotional is prepared for governmental leaders, leaders in the news and entertainment industries, clergy and laypersons; employees and employers; spouses, parents and children. In fact Wisdom is offered to “anyone who has ears to hear” (see Matthew 13:9). Those who receive such Wisdom as presented here will not be disappointed.

More Precious Than Gold
$21.99Add to cartTheologian and pastor Sam Storms urges readers to discover and delight in the treasures of Psalms through 50 days of meditations on this beloved Bible book. In his third book of daily meditations, Sam Storms urges readers to not just enter into God’s Word but to take the next step toward knowing him and his Word better. And the book of Psalms, Storms believes, is a great place to start, because Psalms is so popular and so very relevant to our experiences today. In More Precious Than Gold, Storms combines years of life experience and his biblical and theological training to bring readers 50 brief, daily meditations that are both stylistically accessible and theologically substantive. Each meditation includes a historical or theological reflection on the psalm in context, a story that brings it alive, and creative tools to support the key idea. Storms also interweaves the words of such luminaries as Charles Spurgeon, Jonathan Edwards, and John Piper to help readers better understand the concepts that are featured throughout Psalms: worship, prayer, joy, forgiveness, steadfast love, mercy, sin’s consequences, the law of the Lord, and our relationship with our enemies. Like the Psalter, Storms doesn’t shy away from the tough issues. Instead, he encourages readers to experience through these daily meditations what he and generations of Christians have found to be true: that the whole of the Christian faith is about lifting God higher and magnifying his name-even during difficult times.

40 Day Journey With Julian Of Norwich
$12.99Add to cartThe volumes in the 40-Day Journey series invite readers to take a spiritual journey with a great spiritual guide from the past or the present. In this volume, readers will be inspired by Julian, a celebrated English mystic from the fourteenth century and a recluse at St. Julian’s Church in Norwich, whose writings were the first works in English known to be written by a woman.
Drawing from her published writings, editor Lisa Dahill here selects forty inspiring passages from Julian’s work that help illustrate God’s love and compassion for all. A medieval Catholic, Julian was seen as a precursor to Martin Luther and other Reformation writers. Much of what she wrote speaks of the most profound mysteries of the Christian faith, and her Sixteen Revelations of Divine Love (circa 1393) is considered to be one of the most remarkable documents of medieval religious experience. In it she speaks of the great love of God for God’s people and how sin stands in the way. It is Jesus, however, who assures her, “that all would be well, and all manner of things would be well.”
40-Day Journey with Julian of Norwich begins with a short introduction to the life of Julian and then offers forty chapters, each of which includes a reading from her writings, related Scripture passages, questions to ponder, journal-reflection exercises, and a prayer. The book also includes helps on how to use the book and hints on keeping a journal along with ideas for further reading. Each chapter in the book includes space for notes.

Power Of Gods Love
$9.99Add to cartDr. Charles Stanley’s month-long exploration into the heart of God strengthens and encourages readers to live as those fully and unconditionally loved. People will go to nearly any extreme to feel loved. They run from relationship to relationship, buy new homes and cars, search for new jobs . . . all in hopes of fulfilling their deepest longings. But far too often, every person in this pursuit comes up empy-handed feeling alone, unloved, and mistreated. There is only one Person who can meet all your needs-especially the need to be loved-and that is Jesus Christ. In The Power of God’s Love, Dr. Stanley writes, “We hear about the love of God and think, ‘Oh, but you don’t what I have done. God could never love me.’ The awesome truth is this: God loves you unconditionally. He created you in love, and He has promised to love you forever. When you give your life to Him, your search for true love is over!”

Light Within : Meditation As Pure Prayer
$15.99Add to cartThe Benedictine monk and writer, Laurence Freeman, took over the mantle of John Main after his death in 1982 and continues the work that he began, teaching Christians from all traditions the simplest way of prayer – meditation. It is simple in that it requires no words, yet encountering God without the safety barrier of our own thoughts and ideas is to open ourselves to total transformation. This collection of talks on Christian meditation is full of practical advice and great spiritual insights in equal measure. It shows how discovering the presence of Christ within through meditative prayer can give shape and purpose to everything we do and are: our actions, emotions, fears, longings, failings and dreams. As John Main taught, the point of this kind of prayer is to allow God’s presence to become not just a reality, but the reality of our lives.

Step By Step
$29.99Add to cartDaily Devotions for the whole family. For all who have begun with Genesis 1 on January 1st and found themselves hopelessly behind weeks, or even days, later – or for those who have a desire to read the Bible regularly but don’t know where to start – here is the perfect way to begin, or renew, the practice of daily Bible reading. Step by Step takes readers through an entire year of learning more about who God is and how we are called to follow him. Each day’s reading includes biblical texts, selected by theme, along with a short section explaining and applying the truths from the Bible and a prayer. Readers need only bring open hearts and minds to their daily time with God. Eddison’s notes are warm, personal, practical and encouraging. They draw examples and illustrations from history and from everyday life with the goal of encouraging Christians to live in obedience to Christ. The best commentary on Scripture, Eddison says in his Foreword, is Scripture itself. A particular strength of presenting Bible passages in this way is that readers can appreciate the larger biblical themes and God’s consistency and faithfulness throughout salvation history. Readers will see God’s unchanging message from the Old Testament to the New and his promises from Genesis all the way through to their ultimate fulfilment in Revelation. Perhaps now more than at any other time, Christians are bombarded at every turn with messages that seek to turn them from the costly path of obedience to Christ. Eddison’s desire is to see Christians everywhere strengthened, through daily time with God and in his Word, to run the race with perseverance.

40 Letters To A New Dad
$9.95Add to cartBecoming a new father can be an overwhelming experience. Suddenly, there is this new life looking to you for protection, provision, and guidance.

In Forty Letters to a New Dad, Steven Molin reflects in his letters on the wonder of fatherhood as he shares stories and insights from his own parental experience with his son who has recently become a father. As he explores the fathering experience in such letters as ?Reflecting On A Miracle,? ?The Fear Of Parenting,? and ?Now You Know About Unconditional Love,? there is the realization that, as Christians, we have a heavenly Father to which we can look for our example. God loves us more than any father could ever love his child, giving us a model for how fathers should love their own children.
Forty Letters to a New Dad is a perfect gift for men taking their first steps on their journey of fatherhood, assuring them that they are not alone as God walks with them on this wonderfully petrifying and terrifyingly glorious experience of being a new dad.
