40 Days To A Closer Walk With God

In beautiful and accessible language, Muyskens invites us to spend time daily focusing our hearts on God, to find the power to be still and be reoriented to “the One who is the Center of all.”

Power And Passion
$18.99Add to cartSamuel Wells vividly paints the stories surrounding Jesus’ cross and resurrection. We see the weakness of Pontius Pilate and Barabbas, and the compromised character of Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus. We discover the subtle power of Pilate’s wife. And in Peter and Mary Magdalene we find the true power of resurrection, bringing forgiveness and ending the stranglehold of death, thus transforming all human passion. Through close readings of the gospel texts, Wells demonstrates the significance of these characters for faith and life today.
In this book, structured with one chapter for each week of Lent, Wells guides us from the deathly power that put Jesus on the cross to the new power brought by Jesus’ resurrection. The book offers opportunities at the end of each chapter for prayer and discussion. The Archbishop of Canterbury has selected Power and Passion as his Lent book for 2007.

1 Conversation At A Time
$14.99Add to cartJesus was a conversationalist, and that’s how He taught. Through intimate exchanges with His disciples, He opened their eyes to the marvels of the Kingdom. And at the proper time, He commissioned them to go and make disciples of all nations, teaching each one all they had learned.
Christ calls believers to do the same today. He asks them to make disciples as He did-one conversation, one relationship at a time. But sometimes we spend more time keeping track of how many people we’ve told about Christ than we do getting to know them.
Making disciples is more than witnessing to nonbelievers and tallying numbers. Making disciples is really about building authentic relationships with those closest to us and helping them follow Jesus through heart-to-heart talks and committed friendships.
This book challenges you to reexamine your idea of evangelism and discipleship and reconsider what you say in hour daily conversations. Author D. Michael Henderson will show you how to turn your everyday interactions into open doors through which you can tell others about God and His love for them.

Uprising : A Revolution Of The Soul
$15.99Add to cartWe are all, as Erwin Raphael McManus states, broken pieces of the image of God. And as Christians, too often we talk about God’s ability to change lives without fully understanding how to access that power. The reason is simple: we ourselves have never been radically transformed. McManus explains how many people unknowingly block God from changing us and teaches readers the “texture of the heart” required to unleash God’s transforming power within us. He also demonstrates the passion and purpose that lie ahead when we undertake the journey that leads us to the true source, the very character of God. Fascinating stories from McManus’s personal life and ministry, paired with fresh biblical teaching and profound insights, will astonish and challenge readers to break free from negative habits, destructive emotions, and other strongholds that hinder lasting transformation and to turn toward a life marked by enlightenment, nobility, and virtue.

9. The Bent – Down Life Of FellowshipAdditional Info
Mud pies. Sandy scribbles. Dirty feet.These images tell a story of how Jesus reached down to love us in the muck and mire of our lives and in doing so revealed the true nature of God.
‘When Love Bends Down’ breaks away from overspiritualized Christianity and reaffirms the “nitty-gritty loving one another” lifestyle that Jesus originally called us to – a Christianity that first finds its expression in our love toward others. With precision and craftsmanship, Michael Lodahl takes the threads of Christ’s love found in the writings of John and weaves them together into a beautiful picture of a love that poked below the surface of false piety, that slavishly washes the dirt and dust off road-worn feet, and that gives up everything – even life itself – for others.
This profound portrait of incarnational Christianity shows you a God who willingly opens His hands, stoops down, and reaches people where they are. It will challenge you to bend down and do the same.

Way That Leads There
$23.99Add to cartSaint Augustine formulated the classic Christian understanding of desire, that “our hearts are restless until they rest in God.” Gilbert Meilaender maintains that this frustrated desire lies at the heart of our existence. In The Way That Leads There he takes Augustine as a “conversation partner” for exploring subjects that human beings have wrestled with for centuries – desire, duty, politics, sex, and grief. Meilaender’s carefully reasoned, insightful work rescues Augustine from many of our misperceptions and interacts meaningfully with both C. S. Lewis and Catholic moral theology, generating insights on difficult topics. The picture of life that emerges in these pages is one of incompleteness, of our inability to perfect and unify our moral lives. Yet this inability is not a cause for despair; it is rather a call to look, with Augustine, to God as the source and object of our greatest desire.

Who Told You That You Were Naked
$15.99Add to cartThe gnawing question, Who Told You That You Were Naked? fell a bit more heavily than the forbidden fruit from that tree of knowledge of good and evil. As Victor Schlatter follows the fallout from that fatal bite, we find two streams of destiny flowing all the way into the 21 st century. The first was the Hebraic bedrock on which the Judeo-Christian standards were once founded; the challenger is the worldview of the ancient Greeks, which has formatted the mindset of the Western world-the very mindset that has become so familiar to the self-centered culture that swirls around us today. No less probing than it was in the Garden that dripped with dew and daisies, Who is it that has been whispering that all may not be well as we stand stripped of our humanistic self-confidence in a society that has long since forgotten how to blush?

Learning From Jesus
$14.99Add to cartBecome a Student of the Master
To Christians, Jesus is many things: the Son of God, the pivotal figure in whom we put our trust and who speaks on our behalf, a companion in the life of faith. But Jesus is also an incredible example of how to lead a faithful life. Jesus, as a human, walked on earth and confronted the same struggles that we face. Our primary mission as his followers is to learn from him — to become his apprentices. In this book we seek to further our apprenticeship by studying everything from Jesus’s interactions with those around him to the revolutionary wisdom recorded in the Gospels. Learning from Jesus is conveniently organized for individual or group study, and each section of this guide leads you further down the path to true discipleship.

Through these examples, readers will discover how heartfelt prayer and willing submission can bring them into their own unique, rewarding relationships with God.

Our Spirit Led Life
$15.99Add to cartThis is indeed a unique and different contribution in the Word of God. There are many new truths and revelations which God has intended for people to know, both those who have accepted Him as Lord and those who hopefully will accept Him as Lord and Savior. God is now revealing to us that we are His children. He loves us and will never leave us nor forsake us, even though we left Him. God is willing to dispense unmerited favor (grace) upon all of us, literally, if we but believe in Christ, His son, and accept His sacrifice for our sins. God is raising us today to a higher level of revelation as He did at the time after the flood, with the covenant, laws, kings, etc., and again at the time when Christ came into the world. This book is an excellent nonfiction, inspirational, edifying, teaching manual.

Long Life And Good Days
$13.49Add to cartToo many Christians are preparing to die without considering the choice of life in abundance. Long life and good days have never been an option with God. The original blueprint for His creation did not have death listed as an alternative. The entrance of sin, through disobedience, loosed the death process into the earth realm. The good news is the Bible has been filled with “life extenders” that not only lengthen our lives but provide us keys to enhance the quality of our days. As you read this book, allow what you receive to become a launching pad that propels you into a life and lifestyle that brings glory to the “Giver of long life, and the Author of good days!”

Playing By The Rules
$16.99Add to cartThe apostle Paul wrote to his young protA(C)gA(C), Timothy: “If anyone competes as an athlete, he does not win the prize unless he competes according to the rules” (II Timothy 2:5 NASB). To be on God’s team, one must play by the rules. But rule-keeping alone is not enough. There is a higher level. Rules, like laws, simply test the bare minimum of acceptability. (How far can I stretch the limits of legality and not get caught?) Dedicated players aim higher. They will strive for excellence, not simply by observing the rules, but by cultivating wholesome attitudes, good team spirit, and personal integrity. Many sports figures have been disqualified because they failed in these vital areas. On the playing field of life, true disciples of the Lord will elevate the rules of behavior to a level of righteousness that goes far beyond the slavish grind of a cold and sterile legalism. We may trace this pattern in the beatitudes of Matthew 5:3-12, the Spirit’s fruit in Galatians 5:22-23, and the Christian graces of II Peter 1:1-8. Together they form a composite of godliness. That is what this book is all about

Seeing What Is Sacred
$13.99Add to cartAround us, there are hints that there is a way of life vastly richer and deeper than all this hurried existence, a life unhurried serenity and peace and power.

Walking Wisely : Real Guidance For Lifes Journey
$19.99Add to cartIn Scripture, wisdom is portrayed as a most important treasure, something to be sought after with consistent discipline. We, as Christians, tend to think of wisdom as something to be attained-an ideal to which we aspire. Charles Stanley contends that genuine wisdom is evidenced in how we live. The truly wise person is one whose values, perspectives, career goals, and daily decisions are all shaped by the wisdom found in Christ. Choosing to live according to Biblical precepts is a lifestyle foreign to the worldly patterns among which we live. Inevitably, there will be clashes between the wisdom of God and that of the world. Dr. Stanley teaches how to apply God’s wisdom as we handle finances, relate to others, care for our physical health, and carry out day-to-day duties. This significant volume presents a way of living that embodies wisdom from above.

Request For Divine Inspection
$16.99Add to cartA Request for Divine Inspection is a courageous plea for exploratory surgery and an abandoned surrender to excise any sinful thing concealed in the recesses of the soul through repenting and forgiveness. Not only does the author expose many sins and even weights that we overlook or count as harmless, but he lays them bare and challenges us to deal with now, while it is still called today, before we stand before the all-seeing eyes of the Judge of all the earth. From his lofty appointment in God, Bishop Clifton Jones is still crying aloud and sparing not and sounding the alarm that time is not long. “Hurry!” “Get everything ready!” “The King is coming!” The theme is seek God daily for erroneous thinking that leads to sinful behavior and clear the record now that we may have continual fellowship with the lover of our souls, ultimately preparing our souls for kingdom living.

Longing To Pray
$17.99Add to cartThe Psalms are much more than ancient poetry. They represent, in a moving, kaleidoscopic way, a vast catalog of very real humans with an unquenchable need to relate to their Creator. In spite of experiencing a wide array of troubles, inconsistencies, and questions, these writers were indeed sants who left behind the greatest collection of prayers in the possession of our human race. Best-selling author J. Ellsworth Kalas invites readers to study with ancient experts in prayer – the people who wrote the Book of Psalms. Kalas contends that is was the quality of their friendship with God that fueled them to begin the prayerful conversations that today’s readers across the globe admire and hold dear. The psalmists do not, however, offer any secret precept or a hard set of rules for effective praying. Still, if their prayers are read carefully, their secret of “the Ultimate Friendship” can truly be discovered. Kalas helps readers start down the path of an incredible journey of stimulating, challenging conversation with God. Also includes a study guide by John D. Schroeder.
