Calvinism In The Las Vegas Airport
$21.41A friendly, conversational look at how Calvinism can work in the 21st century Richard Mouw opens this conversational look at Calvinism by retelling a scene from the movie Hardcore. While a pious Calvinist elder played by George C. Scott is trying to track down his daughter who has run away from home, he talks to a young unchurched woman in the Las Vegas airport, unsuccessfully explaining the theology of his Dutch Christian Reformed denomination. This incongruous conversation illustrates the stereotype that Calvinism doesn’t work or fit in today’s world. Rather than being an academic and systematic exposition of doctrine, this book wrestles with some of the distorted views people hold of Calvinists, clears up some common misconceptions, and shows how to live gently and respectfully with Christians who disagree, as well as with people who have no clue what TULIP means. The author revisits the Las Vegas airport and discusses how that conversation might have played out differently.

Is God Listening
$29.98Prayer is in a state of confusion in Lutheranism.
*Does prayer bring God to me?
*Is prayer a means of grace?
*Is it a pipeline of communication between a believer and God?
*Is that pipeline a two way street?
*The more prayers that are prayed the better Christian I am?
*The more people that are praying the more likely someone will be taken care of by God?
Dr. Steinmann engagingly upholds the unique biblical Lutheran view of prayer in this book. Many books on prayer fall into the trap of making God so personal that prayer becomes a psychological tool, a sacrament, or an act in which the believer trusts more than the work of Christ. Dr. Steinmann, in a pastoral, yet scholarly manner brings to the reader God’s word and the simplicity of prayer.
He summarizes it this way:
1.Prayer does not begin with human effort to pester God until he listens. Prayer begins with God’s promise of mercy toward us;
2.Prayer is not a way to manipulate God into answering all our questions or solving our problems in the ways we want them solved. Prayer is designed to help us transcend our problems and troubles by hearing God Himself through His word and Sacraments.It is a book about prayer through the eyes of a pastoral scholar who uses the prayers in the bible to teach the reader about prayer and its place in the daily piety of the believer.

Listening To Love
$16.99One of our greatest desires is to know we are loved by our Creator. Yet the depth of our apprehension is often equally strong: If I listen, we wonder, what will God say? If I open myself up to blessings, what will God require in return? As we trace this line of thinking, the God of all goodness becomes, in our minds, the God of our worst fears. Embrace a love that’s worth the risk. God is far greater than our most expectant dreams. While he does often ask everything of us, he actually wants everything for us. He doesn’t want blind loyalty or bored religious compliance; he longs for nothing less than our entire passionate self – something most us of have yet to glimpse. God’s desire is that people lean in, listen, and wrestle with him so that they can respond to him without fear. Can this God be trusted? Will the journey be easy? Not a chance. But once you learn to listen to love, you’ll find that there’s only one way you can adore this unmanageable, wild, and unruly God: with your whole heart.

World Of The Womb In Gods Plan For Man
$19.36God has given the womb potential, and the devil plans to destroy it. Satan was told that the seed of the woman would crush him and so he desires to beat God to the punch by killing this seed before it is seen. The womb is a physical and spiritual place. When people realize that their womb is purposeful with perfect potential, they will pursue God’s plan for them. From Adam to Jesus Christ and now to mankind, the womb is under attack. Our sacred womb is God’s beautiful and completed work. We must allow the womb to birth its content and thwart the plan of the enemy. From the womb of the mind of God to the womb of our mind, we must allow the creativity that God has invested within us to declare His deeds and His goodness. It is time to push and press into purpose.

Breaking Free From The Pack
$18.73Excellence is defined as the state of going beyond what is average, normal, or expected. It draws from a Greek word, which means to “throw beyond,” as with a javelin or shot put. We serve an excellent God, and He calls for all who follow Him to show forth that same Spirit of Excellence. This book shows, in a practical way, how to attain the walk of excellence. It stresses four principles that require us to seek God-Vision (both personal and ministry), Calling, Perseverance, and Love-as well as how and why to walk in four disciplines-Fasting, Prayer, Meditation, and Solitude with God. The walk of excellence is not required for us to be saved, but if we want our lives to count for something, then it is vital that we enter the realm of the excellent.

Only Jesus Of Nazareth Can Be Isreals King Messiah
$19.98Only Jesus of Nazareth Can Be Israel’s King Messiah, the third in the King Messiah Series, proves beyond doubt according to biblical prophecy that only Jesus of Nazareth can be Israel’s King Messiah. Using his skills as a retired federal investigator, plus spending thousands of hours studying the Bible and debating, John McTernan uses Daniel 9, the Davidic covenant, and the genealogy of the kings of Judah to form an airtight case proving only the Lord Jesus is Israel’s King Messiah. The author provides a unique way to look at Daniel 9 to pinpoint the exact time of King Messiah’s first coming. He shows that the Davidic covenant reveals that King Messiah has to be the Son of God. And finally, he shows that the genealogy of the kings of Judah possesses overwhelming evidence that only Jesus of Nazareth by His virgin birth can be the Messiah. This book is a great witnessing tool.

Devotion
$10.99Sure, we all know what discipleship is. Take the disciples, the Big Twelve. Super-religious guys who hung out with Jesus, carried his bags, handed out baguettes and smoked herring to the hungry followers and listeners (“Where did he get this much food, anyway. My arms are killin’ me.”), did their best to be bodyguards for Jesus (well, except at the end), were the most intimate friends Jesus had as well as the Inner Circle of his teaching (“Nice story, Jesus,but what are you getting at?”). Okay, so when you read the Gospels (or Acts) at face value, the disciples (or apostles) weren’t always on top of things the way Jesus would’ve liked. Okay, let’s be plain: for being Christ’s closest friends and intimate confidants, the disciples were clueless, selfish, erratic, inconsistent, and faithless at least half the time. And Jesus just loved them and used them all the more for it. Author Mike Yaconelli scrubs away centuries of sentimental buildup that has made first-century disciples–well, hard for a turn-of-the-century teenager to emulate. In Devotion: A Raw-Truth Journal on Following Jesus there’s hope for erratic, inconsistent, and sometimes-faithless adolescents who want to follow Christ closer than they do. Here’s a 30-day adventure through 30 traits of disciples as we read about them in the New Testament. And they’re not all pretty. But they’re all the marks of a disciple. Fear. Boldness. Fearlessness. Laziness. Weakness. Sensitivity. Brokenness. Alienation. Hunger. Immaturity. Strength. Preparedness. In each daily reading kids will find: * A discipleship event from Scripture * A brief but pointed paragraph describing that day’s disciple’s trait * A teenager’s first-person commentary on the trait * “The Obvious Truth” and “Obvious Lesson” from the Scripture passage and commentary–and then the “Not So Obvious Truth” and “Not So Obvious Lesson.” * Scripture references for extra reading on the trait * Questions that invite kids to ponder the application of the reading to their own experiences and desires. Devotion: A Raw-Truth Journal on Following Jesus is appropriate for small group reflection and discussion as well as for private use.

Believer Warrior
$24.98When a believer does not grow spiritually, he becomes a liability to the body of Christ. Just as a newborn baby starts at the infant stage, but with time grows to be a fully mature adult, a newly born-again believer goes through certain growth phases before he becomes a spiritually mature adult. Spiritual growth phases are clearly evident and unmistakable as seen throughout the New Testament epistles. One of the dominant characteristics of a carnal believer is unbrokenness. God allows the chastening process as if to chip away the outer man by periodic pain and affliction in the believer’s life. As the believer grows, he can no longer feel peace while having inward hatred toward others. Spiritual growth is not human perfection, but it is having a willing and obedient heart and mind to walk in the ways of God in spite of the common struggles of life.

Come To Me
$16.86Weariness can wear away at our souls, our dreams, our hopes, our determination, and our joy. Weariness is a thief that steals life. It is a descending staircase that leads us into the deep pit of despair and threatens to leave us there with no way out. But the good news is that the way of Christ is ascending. It is the stairway that leads us out of human despair and into the joy of knowing and serving God. Come to Me: An Invitation for the Weary Soul comes to us from the heart of someone who has seen and experienced the dark shadows of true weariness of the soul and mind. In these pages, the author shares with us God.s solution to human weariness and explains why this invitation from Jesus Christ for us to “come” to Him is an invitation worth considering. Reviewed by: Marie DisBrow for Wordsmith Shoppe “Come to Me, written in an easy-to-read, conversational style, is a devotional aimed at those who are overcome by weariness. In this hectic and stressful world, there is surely a large audience for this book. The author uses experiences in his own life, and those of others, to show how weariness can overcome us. A prayer and Scripture reading conclude each of the fourteen chapters.” “The theme of the book is Jesus’ invitation to the weary in Matthew 11:28-30: “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.” I especially appreciated the author’s explanation of a yoke and how taking Jesus’ yoke upon us is not burdensome because it is “custom made” for each individual.” “Beaird encourages setting priorities: God first, then family and other relationships, and even ourselves. He reminds us that Jesus took time to be alone for prayer and refreshing.” “As a caregiver, I’ve often found myself weary and depressed. Reading Come to Me lifted my spirits and pointed to Jesus as the only true solution to the problem of weariness. This little book was very helpful to me, and I’ll read it again and again.” “Mark Beaird is a pastor, columnist, freelance writer, and the author of Let Me Encourage You Today: Daily Devotions and The Pastor’s Collection Sermon Series. Mark and his wife and two daughters reside in Huntsville, Alabama, where he serves as the associate pastor at Life Church International.” (C) Marie DisBrow for Wordsmith Shoppe Are you discouraged, weary, want to give up on the

Never The Less
$31.23To the believer who has been led to the “dead end” of his own ability to live the Christian life, Jesus would say, “I am the Way … I am the Life” (John 14:6). “I … perform all things … for you” (Psalm 57:2). “Nevertheless I will save you for My Name’s sake that I might make My mighty power known” (Psalm 106:8). Striving to please the Father is “the less.” To that He answers, “Never the Less! I give you Myself!” Never the Less gives glimpses of grace and truth that liberate you from self-effort unto His effort-from yourself into Himself.

Little Pot Of Oil
$11.00Running on Empty? The Holy Spirit’s empowerment comes when we step into the forward motion of God’s love flowing through us-not backwards into our comfortable shell!
A time comes when we just don’t have anything left over to give. We run out of faith, energy, strength, patience, options, peace, joy, ideas, and even love.

No Smoke Without Fire
$13.73This book deals with apostolic responsibility, which is to recover the welfare of God’s people. The Spirit of the Lord revealed this message. It brings restoration to thousands of souls who are manipulated, tortured, and confused by the enemy called the devil. God said, “My Word must surely come to pass.”This is the time that the power of God’s Word must go forth to break every yoke and burden on many lives, setting them free so they may experience God’s blessings as never before. God said to me, “Son, did you know that many people die in this world without using the blessings prepared for them on the earth?” Some of these blessings are personally designed so that no other individual may use them, and so they pile up in the storehouse of God. This is why God gave me this revelation: to help us live in the fullness of His blessings. This book will help you to pursue, overtake, and recover and also help you to stand out in life. Seize this moment and discover the joy in serving the only true God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Late Have I Loved Thee
$23.00Late Have I Loved Thee is the first collection of Saint Augustine’s varied writings on human and divine love, chosen to reflect his lifelong preoccupation with ordo amoris, the principle of rightly directed love. “My weight is my love,” he writes in The Confessions. He sees our ability to love as disordered by sin, so that we often choose badly what and how to love. Only by recognizing that we are commanded to love God first can any other object of our love be properly ordered, Late Have I Loved Thee draws on the riches found in Augustine’s sermons, letters, treatises, and Scripture commentaries, as well as passages from The Confessions and City of God.
Augustine (354-430 A.D.) was the most prolific writer of Christian antiquity and the most influential theologian in Church history. In his first encyclical, God Is Love, current Pope Benedict XVI acknowledges his indebtedness to him. When we read Augustine today, we encounter the same direct, eloquent passions his original listeners experienced, infused with his deep sense of human weakness and burning desire for union with God.

Theres Enough Woman Left To Be Your Lady
$22.48Using 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.

Youth Ministry From The Inside Out
$16.99Flash! Ping! Whiz! Pop! Boom! Bang! Crash! Such are the sights and sounds of modern youth ministry. We look for the bigger, the louder, the brighter. And we work long and hard to make our ministry the biggest, the loudest, the brightest. But look out and listen up: God is not caught up in sound and fury. And he doesn’t want to see youth workers disengage–letting the momentum define their purpose. Mike Higgs, reflecting on more than two decades of work with youth, thinks the greatest need among youth workers today is a reminder of who we are. We need to set aside the distractions of an emphasis on performance and focus instead on connecting with God in his work in us, our students and other youth workers. When a renewed spirit shapes our work with youth, our ministry will become less a muddled chorus of strategies and targets, and more a symphony of purpose and practice.

Jesus Drives Me Crazy
$18.55This book is a biblical and theological meditation on the meaning of discipleship a discipleship defined not in terms of those who throng Jesus, but of those who throne Jesus. What it means to “throne him” is to let Jesus drive you crazy crazy in the sense that it goes against how normal people see and function in the world. A disciple is someone who is crazy in love with Jesus. Christians don’t do normal. One of the biggest mistakes a Christian can make is to believe that the way they see the world is the way most other people see the world. We see the world differently. We9re abnormal. We’re weird. We’re eccentric. Christians have an off-kilter view of the world. Loving your enemies, turning the other cheek, going the second mile, living without anger, living without lusting, being strong in the broken places_all these things normal people just have a hard time thinking these thoughts and living these ways. There is the “World According to Normal” where most Christians currently live. This book calls Christians to the World According to NUTS . . . where NUTS is an acronym for Never Underestimate the Spirit.

The book proceeds through the Old and New Testaments, engaging readers with the discoveries and struggles of people of faith from Adam and Eve to those gathered around the Lamb in the new Jerusalem. Stevens and Green focus throughout on how we can truly live the Word of God so that our own stories become part of God’s great story of love.Filled with biblical wisdom and a pleasure to read, “Living the Story” is a winsome invitation to follow God wholeheartedly in every dimension of life.

Would You Still Love Jesus If He Sent You To Hell
$16.86This book is designed to promote thanksgiving and meditation by applying Scriptures to everyday life. It should challenge some of our personal views and thoughts on everyday occurrences. So many things go on around us that we often have trouble determining our true convictions. “Is it conviction or guilt?” We know “hell is real,” but do we always “act as if”? Don’t be afraid to allow this book to search your soul. Trust God to show you what’s “at the root” and to prove that “life is short, but eternity lasts forever.” Reading this book will light a fire in your soul that you thought was impossible to light. After you’ve finished, ask yourself those really tough questions: “Is Jesus your friend?” “To drink or not to drink?” and of course, “Would you still love Jesus if he sent you to hell?”

Reign Of Grace
$21.95Thrill to the loving implications of God’s disruptive grace. With bold perspective and soul searching honesty, author Scotty Smith dares us to explore the radical nature of the grace of God, addressing such questions as:
What does it mean to be a good steward of God’s grace?
Is God more concerned about my happiness or my holiness?
When God brings freedom, healing, and peace, what’s supposed to happen next?
If God’s love is so compelling, what does it compel me to believe, do, and become?As believers, we are sometimes more interested in a masseuse rather than a Master. Smith dares to remind us that God’s love is a s disruptive as it is delightful, as demanding as it is delicious! God loves us exactly as we are today, but he loves us too much to leave us where we are. As objects of God’s affection, we are called to live as subjects in his kingdom under the reign of his glorious grace.

Kind Of Capernaum
$21.86The world seems to be lamenting the trends that it has unwittingly established, as righteousness is exiled among the nations. Wrongful sowing has brought forth a harvest that has yielded many broken families. Biblical absolutes are being undermined and intolerance has increased toward those who carry an earnest Christian expression. Few aspects of our lives are unspoiled by the indifference to righteousness. Our society has become like Capernaum in rejecting holiness. To many, the only wrong thing is to claim that you are right. Like a crop-eating parasite, sin has eaten away at the consciences of many. Even among professed Christians, many have surrendered their convictions, apologizing when they should be celebrating the truth of God’s Word. Their souls’ defenses have broken down, leaving no barriers against sin in their lives. The people constantly reject the restraints provided by God’s Word, substituting divine truth for a reactionary common sense called “do whatever feels good.” Therefore, one is left to wonder how deeply people must sink into depravity before this Titanic generation turns to God. This book is intended to remind people that knowledge of divine truth will better prepare them to live godly lives, fitting them as citizens for the New Jerusalem.

Gods Will : The Mystery Now Made Known
$31.23If someone would come to you with the news that the richest man on earth, having untold wealth, had made you heir to all that he possessed-i.e., land, stocks, bonds, cattle, real estate, motels, hotels, resorts, automobiles, and condominiums in Hawaii, Italy, Spain, Sweden, London, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and the United States of America, with cash in banks around the world-you, chances are, would become overjoyed, to say the least.
