Make Sense Of Your Story
$22.99Looking back at painful stories from the past seems counterproductive, especially when it appears unrelated to our present lives. But what if exploring our past stories can help us make sense of where we are now and begin to imagine who we would like to become? Rather than ignoring, suppressing, or running from our past hurts, looking at our stories of heartache and how they have shaped us helps make sense of who we are now and points the way to freedom and meaningful change.
In Make Sense of Your Story, trauma therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker Adam Young helps you explore your personal story so you can understand how your experiences have shaped your brain–which, in turn, allows you to understand why your present day-to-day life looks and feels the way it does. He shows you how to confront and process the story of your family of origin, your sexual story, the story your body is telling you, your cultural story, your story with God, and more with kindness rather than judgment so that you can experience healing, self-acceptance, and release.
The secret to making sense of your present life is understanding your past experiences. And if you want to change the narrative, you have to engage your story.

When Religion Hurts You
$19.99Religious trauma is something that happens far more often than most people realize.
In When Religion Hurts You, Dr. Laura Anderson takes an honest look at a side of religion that few like to talk about. Drawing from her own life and therapy practice, she helps readers understand what religious trauma is and isn’t, and how high-control churches can be harmful and abusive, often resulting in trauma. She shows how elements of fundamentalist church life–such as fear of hell, purity culture, corporal punishment, and authoritarian leaders–can cause psychological, relational, physical, and spiritual damage.
As she explores the growing phenomenon of religious trauma, Dr. Anderson helps readers embark on a journey of living as healing individuals and finding a new foundation to stand on. Recognizing that healing is a lifelong rather than a linear process, she offers markers of healing for those coming out of painful religious experiences and hope for finding wholeness after religious trauma.

When Faith Meets Therapy
$19.99Now available in trade paper!
The power of faith intersects with the practicality of counseling in this unique partnership of a faith/worship leader and a therapist as they offer a pathway for readers to find help, hope, healing, and freedom while navigating life’s struggles.
No one is immune from life’s difficulties, yet many people are reluctant to talk about mental health or seek professional help when they are struggling. People of faith who are battling issues such as anxiety, depression, life changes, stress, or relationship problems may suffer in silence, believing things would get better if only their faith was stronger, they prayed more, or if they had more self-discipline. The stigma about needing to seek help is all too real.
But seeking professional help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign that someone is serious about moving forward emotionally, relationally, and spiritually. Written by producer, artist, and author Anthony Evans, along with licensed psychotherapist Stacy Kaiser, When Faith Meets Therapy:
*Dispels the cultural myths and stigmas that surround professional therapy
*Shares stories from the authors’ personal experiences and others who are facing life’s challenges
*Provides practical steps that readers can take in the pursuit of emotional, relational, and spiritual progress
Anthony and Stacy met five years ago when Anthony was seeking emotional and relational healing of his own. Stacy led Anthony through his own process of internal renovation and remains his personal therapist to this day.
When Faith Meets Therapy contains priceless, practical knowledge to break stereotypes that surround therapy, all while offering immeasurable hope and encouragement.

Hem Of His Garment
$17.99Hope for When the Pain Won’t Quit
Everyone experiences pain at times. It can manifest physically, emotionally, relationally, or spiritually. It can follow tragic accidents, great loss, sudden betrayal, or unexpected and unwanted change. Often it is temporary. But what do you do when it isn’t? When the pain just won’t go away, when healing does not come, when the grief and hurt settle in?
Drawing on her own experience of chronic pain and her years as a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist, Dr. Michelle Bengtson provides a countercultural perspective on pain. Offering hope without any false promises or empty platitudes, Dr. Bengtson unwraps the complex emotional aspects of dealing with pain. She gives you permission to question God, helps you identify the lies you’ve believed about your pain, and reorients your perception based on the truth of God’s Word. Each chapter ends with a recommended playlist, reflection questions, and a prayer.
Your pain may not change, but your experience of it can.

Shattered Shepherds : Finding Hope In The Midst Of Ministry Disaster
$15.28Frustration, disappointment, and heartache are inevitable in pastoral ministry. Sheep are not always docile and cooperative, and there are plenty of wolves to contend with as well. Every church has people who seem to think criticism is a spiritual gift, and the pastor naturally gets the brunt of their complaints. Young men frequently leave the ministry in discouragement, and burnout is common among experienced pastors. Steve Swartz has experienced?and survived?church problems that would demoralize any pastor. He has written a compact but potent book that offers a wealth of straightforward biblical help and encouragement for fellow pastors struggling to get past ministry setbacks. This is a much-needed resource.
Shattered Shepherds aptly addresses the care of pastors and church leaders who have been badly hurt in the course of ministry. But rather than characterizing them just as victims, Steve lovingly encourages personal reflection and growth even while giving much-needed comfort to these wounded warriors. Steve’s goal is to get these men back into the pulpit with renewed strength and soft hearts for God’s people. Thoroughly biblical and immediately practical, this book will shepherd men and their wives back to the church of Jesus Christ.

Eternity In Their Hearts (Reprinted)
$17.99Has the God who prepared the gospel for all people groups also prepared all people groups for the gospel?Don Richardson, author of the bestselling book Peace Child, has studied cultures throughout the world and found startling evidence of belief in the one true God within hundreds of them.

He sought, reached out, and found a God far greater than any popular “god” of his own culture. And there have been others throughout the world, like him, who lived to receive the blessing of the gospel.Get ready to be amazed at these intriguing examples of how God uses redemptive analogies to bring all men to Himself, bearing out the truth from Ecclesiastes that God “has also set eternity in the hearts of men” (3:11).

How To Make Your Dream Come Alive Workbook (Workbook)
$18.73This workbook accompanies Pastor Ellis’ textbook of the same title. It reinforces the principles of the book through “Short Answer”, “Things to Do”, “Reflection Questions” and practical exercises.
“It would be hard to over-praise the ministry of Pastor Delton Ellis. The impact of Keepers of the Temple Ministries International on our church workers has transformed our ministry. I energetically recommend Pastor Delton on video and in person.” -Weldon L. Tisdale, Sr. Pastor, Friendship Church Tulsa, Oklahoma “When the name Delton Ellis is mentioned, there are at least three words that leap into my spirit. These words are Service, Protocol, and Leadership. When one is in his presence, these unique qualities ensue from him in a practical and overwhelming way. One encounter with this rare gift to the body of Christ in any capacity-as an author, conference speaker, preacher, or workshop presenter-will confirm and demonstrate the aforementioned qualities. The insights in this book will not only provide valuable information and inspiration, but if embraced, they will also increase your level of excellence and influence.” -The Right Rev. Dr. Paul C. Cockfield Presiding Bishop Kingdom Five Fold Covenant Fellowship Senior Pastor Battalion Pentecostal Assembly Averne, New York “Pastor Delton Ellis has been ordained and set apart by God for this season in the body of Christ as we promote the ‘spirit of excellence’ in the kingdom. He has ministered at our local assembly, Pilgrim Baptist Temple, and left an indelible mark and impact on the leadership.

Creative Suffering
$15.61What is suffering? And what are the different kinds of suffering? Where does suffering come from-God? Or Satan? What purpose does suffering serve? Should we put up with suffering or simply do whatever we can to avoid it? These and other questions that have perplexed Christians since the birth of the Church will be examined and answered in the light of Scripture. None of us can truthfully say we understand another person’s pain unless we have had the same painful experiences. For too long leaders in the Church have openly taught or covertly implied that if a Christian is suffering there must be something wrong with him. If hurting people can read about others who have suffered the same things they are going through, it will cause them to go deeper into Christ for healing, instead of hiding their pain down inside themselves. We all need to know that our pain, our experiences, should not be denied but, in Jesus, should become Creative Suffering!

$20.61Out of her own experiences as the wife of a pastor, Betty Norcross writes this book to encourage others in ministry. However, this book’s relevance doesn’t stop with the clergy and their families. It can have an impact on anyone who loves the Lord and has a desire to work for Him. Betty tells of her reluctance to begin serving as a pastor’s wife and how she struggled with the many difficulties and discouragements she encountered in this new vocation. Crises occurred so regularly that she began to consider them a vocational hazard in the work of the Church. She takes you through some of her crises, a few of them of earth-shattering proportions, and others not much more than mild tremors. But through it all, Betty relates the faithfulness of the One who called her to the work. Her habit of talking to the Lord about everything on a regular basis proved to be the source of strength she needed for the task. This book will encourage you to be consistent in your daily devotional time.

From Growing Up Pains To The Sacred Diary
$19.99The Growing Up Pains Of Adrian Plass
The Sacred Diary Of Adrian PlassAdditional Info
Two favourite works by best-selling author Adrian Plass in one volumeAdrian Plass has a way of telling our stories by telling his, and by so doing has endeared himself to a multitude of readers. Perhaps his secret lies in his humour, from the dark to the absurd. Or it could be his penchant for poking gently but frankly at the foibles of Christian living. Both qualities are on display here, with two of Plass’s best-loved books rolled into one. The Growing Up Pains of Adrian Plass offers reflections on a difficult passage in the author’s personal journey, during which the television programme Company and some of its memorable guests made a deep impact on Plass’s faith. The Sacred Diary of Adrian Plass Aged 37 1/2 is a laugh-filled, fictional daily chronicle of family and church exploits, featuring Plass’s literary alter ego and a memorable cast of supporting characters. Referring to The Sacred Diary, Plass writes, ‘I don’t think I shall ever be unhappy enough to write such a funny book again.’ Though different in character, both books in this volume explore the darker side of living the Christian faith–and, in Plass’s inimitable style, point beyond to the bright hope that lies in Jesus.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

In Colors of the Spirit, Ederer goes through each color of the rainbow to share the special meanings they have for her, and how the qualities they represent can bring us peace and joy in our own lives.

Dwight Pentecost draws from his years of teaching and counseling experience to find the answers to life’s problems in the Word of God by surveying fifteen Bible characters who struggle with issues such as guilt, doubt, and resentment. But this is much more than a survey of Bible characters! It’s a path to finding unwavering hope, unsurpassable peace, and unlimited love.

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.”Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Bible Readings For Caregivers
$14.98We 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.
