Abba
$10.95Add to cart“Most Christian people often find it difficult to say their prayers in any meaningful way. Here, in these extracts from a book of devotional meditations by Evelyn Underhill, will be found clear but profound guidance on how to pray. The title of the book, Abba, is the term used in more than one place in the New Testament for addressing God as Father and it is with the ‘Our Father’ prayer that these meditations are concerned. At first sight it might be thought impossible to say anything fresh on something so familiar to all Christians as the Lord’s Prayer. Yet the inexhaustible depths of meaning to be found in it may, by the very fact of familiarity, all too easily escape notice and understanding. In these meditations those depths are explored with passionate intensity by an acknowledged expert in Christian mysticism. Both as a scholar of widely recognized academic distinction in her chosen field of story and as one of the leader conductors of retreats in her day, Evelyn Underhill (1875 – 1941) proved to have an unusual gift for combining spiritual perception of a rare order and a deep sympathy with the human situation.” –from the preface by Roger L. Roberts

It’s so simple! So simple a shallow person can understand it. What I’ve found out about God is that he is totally trustworthy, and I can relax in his plans. And besides that, all he wants is – are you ready for this? – for me to be his person. Just be his person, for heaven’s sake! All I can say to that is, Duh! Who knows? Next I may be writing a six-volume Bible commentary! – Sue Buchanan in Duh-VotionsMeet Sue Buchanan. She says to audiences, “I may as well tell you because you’ll figure it out anyway: I’m not that deep. I’m shallow. But I’m deep for a shallow person.”
Sue offers a merry and witty look at life from the “shallow” end of the gene pool in sixty fun devotions. From entertaining angels with chicken andaluza to listing her not-so-favorite blond jokes, from a debate on Spam vs. baloney to dramas between mothers and daughters, she’ll make you laugh . . . and think about some important lessons in life.
This very funny lady shows us all that we don’t have to be “deep” to hear God’s voice. All we have to do is listen and we’ll find his message about love and redemption in even the smallest details of everyday life.

ChristHeart is a book of meditations based on thirty-four (34) events or teachings from the life of Jesus Christ. The reader is invited to enter more fully into the life of the human Jesus and to identify with the feelings and thoughts of Christ as he carried out his earthly ministry.Designed to facilitate contemplative prayer, the author encourages readers to imagine the responses of Jesus as he dealt with conflict, entered into friendship with the disciples and others, and healed people and taught them about a vital, personal, love relationship with God. The reader can enter into the experiences of Jesus by reading a selected scripture from the Gospels and one of the meditations, and then picturing the scene and identifying with the feelings and thoughts of Jesus in that scene.
At the end of each meditation is a question to encourage reflection and a deepening of one’s own understanding of how the life of Christ intersects with and transforms the reader’s life.
Miley has written seven mediations for each of the thirty-five (35) Gospel stories

Love Is : Meditations For Couples On 1 Corinthians 13
$14.99Add to cart“And now I will show you the most excellent way. . . .”
No words, no passage, no song, no poem in all of human history has crystallized the qualities of love into simple absolutes more elegantly than 1 Corinthians 13. The Love Chapter of the Bible paints a perfect picture of love. It reveals the ideal love for which everyone yearns. But the passage is not a fantasy of what might be nice. It is a serious essay on how love can be lived, describing qualities ordinary people can cultivate to build extraordinary relationships.Relationship experts Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott have compiled fifteen translations of 1 Corinthians 13 to inspire and teach anyone wanting to be a better lover. In the preface, the Parrotts describe love as the supreme good, a gift that lifts us outside of ourselves. They follow with meditations on very diverse translations and creative paraphrases of 1 Corinthians 13 – from the 20th Century New Testament translation published in 1900 to The Message, published in 1995, from J. B. Phillips (1947) to The Living Bible (1979), and from the Basic Bible (1950) to the New King James Version (1979).
This book makes a beautiful gift for engagements, weddings, Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or any occasion when love is celebrated.

Best-selling author Phillip Keller explores the practical implications of living in daily communion with God. Many Christians believe that this kind of intimate fellowship is a special favor granted only to the loftiest of saints. But Phillip Keller reminds us that every believer can live in the daily joy of God’s presence.
Walking with God in the spirit, in the soul, and in the body – abiding wholly in the presence of Immanuel – will energize and illuminate every corner of one’s life with God’s guidance and comfort. Keller calls the reader to accept God’s invitation to walk humbly with Him. When we accept His invitation, He will reveal to us who we truly are, what life direction we are taking, and the ultimate destination of our individual walk of faith.
Walking with God is for “the weary and worn who have lost their way and are uncertain where to turn….It is intended especially for those seeking souls who long to walk with God in humble joy – who ache fiercely for the Master’s friendship.” -

PROMISES TO KEEP
“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”-Proverbs 27:17A powerful new movement is sweeping across America: Christian men are coming together to make a difference in their families, churches, businesses, and communities. They are helping one another acknowledge a deep-seated need and hunger for spiritual nourishment and Christian fellowship. They are “sharpening” one another’s understanding of what it means to be a man today.

Offering inspiration and motivation, this little treasure provides the spiritual dimensions lacking in the lives of so many and proves that men can be strong and tender, can lead without tyranny, can be authoritative without arrogance, and can have relationships with each other that are full of meaning, insight, and even love.

John of the Cross (1542-1591) was one of the brightest spiritual lights of the dark and tumultuous 1500s. His teaching led thousands to inner freedom from “the dark night of the soul”-the state of spiritual blindness in which most of us live our days, unaware that God is right beside us, in love, in freeing power. Through great opposition and danger, John taught countless men and women how to find freedom in the Spirit.John’s words and deep understanding of spiritual truth will also help you find a richer experience of God, leading you to:
*a fresh infilling of the love of the Father.
*renewed wonder at the beauty and holiness of Jesus, our Lord and brother.
*the discovery of the Holy Spirit’s presence, helping you daily, with new strength and freedom from within.Treasured and classic writings that have had a profound impact on the church down through the ages.

Note To The Reader
Discourse I. How To Begin Every Day With God
Discourse II. How To Spend The Day With God
Discourse III. How To CLose The Day With God P. 81Additional Info
As Matthew Henry himself says,”Great is the mystery of serious godliness”; and it is the cultivation of godliness that makes up the burden of this book. The person who reads Matthew Henry without seeking to seriously examine his personal devotional life would be hard to find.
As the reader persuses the pages of this classic look at what is involved in a daily walk with God, he will encounter such pity thoughts as these: “If ever we be good for anything, it is in the morning.”
“The conclusion of every day should put us in mind of the conclusion of all our days.” “God is more willing to be prayed to, and more ready to hear prayer, than we are to pray.” “Those that touch the top of the golden scepter must be ready to tell what is their petition and what is their request.”
“God understands the language of the heart.” “Let us lie down in peace with all men.” In the secret of Communion with God, Henry tells us how to: Begin the Day with God, Spend the Day with God, Close the Day with God. -

Bible Readings For Caregivers
$8.99Add to cartWe all have opportunities to show caring to others in our daily lives. Caregiving is not limited to the professionals. Whenever we reach out in empathy to someone in need we are caregivers. We may stand beside cheer to a lonely person. We may allow a person to express feelings about a job loss or the agony of a divorce. As a member of the body of Christ, “if one part suffers, every part suffers with it” (1 Cor. 12:26). If we listen through the pain, walk with the person through troubled times, and present a word of hope in Christ, we offer Christian caring.

In His Steps
$16.99Add to cartThe penetrating and provocative question “What would Jesus do?” in all of life’s complex situations, is the central theme of this book. It is the soul-stirring novel of men and women torn between their faith and the demands, compulsions, and temptations of life. Dr. Henry Maxwell, respected pastor of the First Church of Raymond, struggled with the idea that Christian discipleship demanded more than mental assent. He vowed to preface every attitude and action of his own life with the question: What would Jesus do in this situation if He were me? Electrifying his congregation with the same challenge, people responded with agreement to try it for one year. This book is the moving, dramatic story of a handful of Americans–a newspaper editor, a college president, a railroad executive, a pastor, a singer, a writer, a wealthy philanthropist–who pledge to walk in “the steps of Jesus.” At each turning point in their daily lives, they must ask: “What would Jesus do?” For decades, readers have been gripped by this narrative and have been challenged by its implications for their own lives. In His Steps is a convincing testimony to the worth and influence of Christian witness in all of life. A Christian classic every Christian should read!

Life Of Our Lord
$23.00Add to cartCharles Dickens–perhaps the best loved of all English novelists–here, in his own unique style, brings to life the gospel account of Jesus. This–the last work of Dickens to be published–is a beautiful retelling of the familiar Bible story. Originally handwritten by Dickens for his own children this inspiring account was created in order that they might know more of the book Dickens called “the best that ever was or will be known in the world.” The work remained, at the authors request, unpublished for eighty-five years. Dickens no doubt refused to permit publication because it was such a personal communication to his own children, and he did not want his deepest religious convictions to be subjected to public discussions. After the death of Dickens youngest child in 1933, publication was permitted and the work appeared in newspaper serialization and later in book form. It is now part of the rare books collection of the Free Library of Philadelphia. This charming, nostalgic work includes illustrations of pages from the original manuscript, a portrait of Dickens children, and engravings of Biblical scenes in a style often used in family Bibles during Dickens time. Definitely a work to be cherished. The Life of Our Lord is one book certain to be read again and again.
