Antichrist : The Search For Amalek
$15.99Add to cartThere were many mass murderers throughout history, including Mao of China (49-78 million), Leopold of Belgium (8-10 million), and Joseph Stalin of Russia (6-20 million). Each one is a frightening example of mankind’s evil.
There is a subtle difference between these three and Adolf Hitler, for example, who directed most of his fury at one particular people … the Jews. That strain of hatred is different. It desires more than to shed blood; it desires to wipe the slate clean of the memory of an entire race of people.
The killers in this book are enemies of God; they are not random and they are connected by blood.
“So that the name of Israel is remembered no more” (Psalm 83:4).

Love Nature Faith And Cowboys
$15.49Add to cartLove. Nature. Faith. Cowboys. Subjects of inspiration and wonder. Much could be said on any one of them: how they make us feel, how they change our perceptions of our world and of ourselves, how they fill us with hopes and dreams, and how our world is better for us having experienced them. Yes, even the cowboys.
Normally, an author would focus on a single topic, in the hopes of conveying a message. But, in love, nature, faith…and cowboys, Stephen M. Nichols shares four themes which, though disparate, lend themselves to his unique brand of poetry. Together, they share some common elements of interest and involvement to which most readers can relate.
You are invited to peruse the poetic thoughts and musing of Stephen M Nichols. May you be inspired, reminded of wonder, provoked to thought, and be moved by the emotions contained within his words.

I Am Fearfully And Wonderfully Made
$17.49Add to cartI AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE provides a biblically based foundation to understand the eternal Father fearfully and wonderfully made us in His image and likeness and gave us an identity so we can fulfill three realities – to God be the glory, I can do what the word says I can do and by the grace of God I am what I am. Our identity is uniquely tailored to and woven into His sacred and holy word. God’s word ultimately leads one to believe God’s three realities for humanity. We must understand it is in these three realities we will find our God-given identify. Our flesh is probably the greatest challenge our identity has to face and overcome, especially if we are not used to living our lives according to God’s holy word and three realities for humanity.
Believers who embrace these realities soon begin to walk in the word, display the power of the word and exercise the authority of the word. Once we embrace these realities it will cause us to realize our God-given identity and boldly walk in the fullness and reality of purpose and destiny that God predestined for us before the foundation of the world. We can only realize our true identity in God when we embrace and walk in the three realities.

Corruption Of America
$25.99Add to cartThe America we know and love is in danger as never before in its history. The Land of George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and the uniquely great American Constitution is under deadly attack. It has already been distorted and heavily damaged. America is being assaulted from within and without by forces of atheism, legalized immorality, socialism, communism, and Islam. Some of these forces go by the deceptive names of “progressives,” “social democrats,” “leftists,” as well as socialism, communism, and atheism, but they have their basis in vile hatred of America, and they work assiduously to malign and defame our country, and overthrow it. Their method is constant lying and deception in every form imaginable. We witness preposterous lies every day from these individuals and groups in their quest to defame America, conservatism, Republicans, and any individual or group that opposes them. They have as their goal the revolutionary overthrow of America, and its replacement by socialism, communism, or Islam and Sharia law. All of these forces have a long historical record of inhuman cruelty, genocide, and democide.
The destructive revolutionary activities of the 1960s opened up these avenues of attack, and they have increasingly evolved and been institutionalized since the 1970s and 80s. They run throughout our educational institutions, the courts, the media, entertainment, and have even infiltrated our government. Our universities have been corrupted and politicized by them. Many professors who teach our young people today are avowed Marxists, socialists, and communists. Many of these professors are also radical feminists who are atheists, Marxists, communists, and lesbians. They also express great hatred for America, and seek to radically change it to some form of Marxism, socialism, or communism. The ACLU, an atheist and communist organization from its start in 1920, is now a highly financed organization that actually seeks to legally overthrow Constitutional American liberties, and promote a totally different world of anarchic, atheistic freedom, divorced from God and moral law, and which will be intolerant of anything else. America began as a Christian democratic nation, with Presidents who stood staunchly for liberty under God, Christianity, the Bible, and freedom of worship. They warned us against the results of immorality-tyranny, despotism, corruption, and decline. Constitutional liberties have already been largely swept away by a Suprem

Why God Why
$15.49Add to cartDr. Sommer grew up with severe/profound hearing loss in both ears. As a boy he would often ask God why he could not hear like other people. He learned that if we can hear man, but not God, we are deaf. If we can see, but do not see God, we are blind. If we can walk, but are not walking with God, we are crippled.
You may never have asked God “why can’t I hear?” But who among us has never asked God “why?” Why did they have to die? Why is there so much sickness and suffering? Why did this relationship have to end? Why do I feel this grief? Why is there war? Why am I going through this? Why God Why?
Dr. Sommer’s testimony is sure to touch your heart. Even more importantly, his book “Why God Why” will help lead you work through those questions in your own life and turn them into a testimony that impacts the world around you.

Covenant Bible Study Leader Guide (Teacher’s Guide)
$28.99Add to cartThis Covenant experience will guide participants in a comprehensive, in-depth study of the Bible over twenty-four weeks. Unlike the learning participants may have experienced in other groups, this in-depth study of the whole Bible emphasizes the biblical concept of covenant as a unifying pattern through all the books in the Old and New Testaments. It underscores the unique relationship that God chooses to have with us as God’s people. This relationship is grounded in the faithfulness of God’s love and on our ongoing commitment to stay in love with God while we share signs of that love with others. The Leader Guide contains comprehensive and detailed direction for each meeting experience. While each group’s chemistry will vary, the Leader Guide contains the following elements: The Group Meeting Experience – Each Covenant Bible Study episode follows the same essential structure by balancing conversational teaching from biblical experts with engaging discussion among the participants. Covenant is designed so that the meaning of the Bible isn’t found in just listening to a biblical scholar or listening to one’s own inner voice. Only through conversation in community, in the Covenant Group Meeting Experience, can we discover the Bible’s transformative power. During some weeks the group might be so full of energy and questions that conversation leaves less time for the video. That’s okay. The spiritual energy that wakes up and transforms a life is the most important result from this kind of Bible study. Gathering Together (10 min) – The opening questions of this segment in each episode are designed to prompt conversation on a general topic that connects to the main theme of the episode. Begin by reading the scriptures in the Covenant Prayer section for the episode. Have one person say the phrase, “For those who . . .” and then the whole group responds by reading the scripture passage aloud. Reflecting Together (10 min) – This segment guides participants to share what they learned from the week’s scripture readings with questions that tie their discoveries into a central theme. The study also encourages participants to memorize and share verses from the readings that they found particularly meaningful. Video Segment (25 min) – Play the video for the current episode. The cohosts for this opening conversation are Reverend Shane Stanford, senior pastor at Christ United Methodist Church in Memphis, Tennessee, and Reverend Christine Chakoian, seni

Promise In Pieces
$15.99Add to cartA baby quilt touches many hearts as it travels from family-to-family and through generations.After the end of World War II, Clara Kirkpatrick returns from the Women’s Army Corp to deliver a dying soldier’s last wishes: convey his love to his young widow, Mattie, with apologies for the missed life they had planned to share.
Struggling with her own post-war trauma, Clara thinks she’s not prepared to handle the grief of this broken family. Yet upon meeting Mattie, and receiving a baby quilt that will never cuddle the soldier’s baby, Clara vows to honor the sacrifices that family made.
Now a labor and delivery nurse in her rural hometown, Clara wraps each new babe in the gifted quilt and later stitches the child’s name into the cloth. As each new child is welcomed by the quilt, Clara begins to wonder whatever happened to Mattie-and if her own life would ever experience the love of a newborn. Little does she know that she will have the opportunity to re-gift the special quilt-years later and carrying even greater significance than when it was first bestowed.

Yada Yada Prayer Group Gets Caught
$17.99Add to cartFor the Yada Yadas, gettin’ caught up in troubles isn’t the problem-it’s how to get free.
Only weeks ago, we Yadas toughened our prayer knees when one of our own was the victim of a vicious racial attack. Now it seems each household is being thrown into even worse circumstances. It especially worries me, Jodi Baxter, because I’m a fixer by nature, and the prayer list is getting out of control . . .Ruth and Ben are caught up in an unplanned pregnancy-in their fifties! Chanda is deluded by the glitter of her lottery dream come true. Florida wants to move her family, hoping to leave trouble behind, but it looks like it may catch up to her anyway. And I’m finding that even good things like prayer group can consume me in no time flat.
If there is an upside, it’s that all this trouble is revealing the subtle lies we Yadas believe about God, ourselves, each other, and life. Maybe our best hope is to catch on to what God’s doing-and catch on quick-before the enemy can take any prisoners. That’d be a freedom worth celebrating. And celebrating is what my spiritual sisters and I do best.

Yada Yada Prayer Group Gets Tough
$17.99Add to cartThe Yada Yadas got tight in the past year, but they’re about to learn the real meaning of togetherness.
We’d done it: we’d taken a mismatched, diverse group of women and cobbled together a prayer group that really worked for all of us. Now that spring was here, we were celebrating our one-year anniversary-and a wedding, an early parole, and two baptisms in the lake! Everything was feeling pretty great.
But it’s when we’re in our comfort zone that we’re most likely to let our guard down. Without warning, lots of little things seemed to become big problems. With a white supremacy hate group targeting a local university, our very diversity almost became a liability. It took a vicious attack on Nony’s husband to make us see that we had to get tough-and fight back together.

All religions and worldviews seek to answer the fundamental questions of human existence: Why am I here? What does it mean to be human? Why is there evil in the world and how do we deal with it? But not every worldview places equal emphasis on each issue. The main worldviews each tend to stress a different central question. Secular humanism focuses on: What is the inherent value of human beings? Pantheism emphasizes: How do we escape suffering? Islam’s main concern is: How is God great? Abdu Murray digs deeply into these three representatives of major worldviews of our day: atheism, pantheism and theism. This lawyer and former Muslim brings compassion, understanding and clarity to his analysis, comparing the answers of each view to the central message of Christianity. -

Subject IndexAdditional Info
The past 30 years has seen a theoretical and clinical renaissance in psychoanalysis, as well as a flourishing of Christian engagement in the fields of psychology and anthropology. This volume of essays stages a new conversation between Christianity and psychoanalysis that opens up new ways of thinking about the rich mosaic of human experience.Unsurprisingly, given Sigmund Freud’s understanding of religion, the conversation between Christianity and psychoanalysis has long been marked by mutual suspicion. Psychoanalysis originated within a naturalist, post-Enlightenment context and sought to understand human functioning and pathology–focusing on phenomena such as the unconscious and object representation–on a strictly empirical basis. Given certain accounts of divine agency and human uniqueness, psychoanalytic work was often seen as competitive with a Christian understanding of the human person. The contributors to Christianity and Psychoanalysis seek to start a new conversation. Aided by the turn to relationality in theology, as well as by a noncompetitive conception of God’s transcendence and agency, this book presents a fresh integration of Christian thought and psychoanalytic theory. The immanent processes identified by psychoanalysis need not compete with Christian theology but can instead be the very means by which God is involved in human existence. The Christian study of psychoanalysis can thus serve the flourishing of God’s kingdom.

They both agree they are done with romance and love and will make this nothing more than a marriage of convenience.
Marty works to carve out a new life in high-society Denver as Jake works to guide the bank through a collapsing economy. But when money goes missing at the bank and accounting discrepancies point to Jake, he must find a way to prove his innocence. Yet all he wants to do is go back to Texas and own his own ranch. Marty, on the other hand, owns a ranch–one she’s never told her husband about. She hates Texas because it represents the losses in her life. But as the couple grows closer and love begins to bloom, Marty realizes she needs to tell Jake the truth. Can she come to terms with the past and her anger toward God in order to make room for love?

Spirit Rising : Tapping Into The Power Of The Holy Spirit
$15.99Add to cartFor some of us being a Christian is harder than it should be. Discouraged, anxious, worn down, we wonder what happened to the power and the joy that Jesus promised. Jim Cymbala believes that many of us are missing something vital. Christianity, he says, for even the best-intentioned person or church, is impossible without the Holy Spirit. You can have regular devotions, great preaching, a strong emphasis on the Bible, a great worship team, and a congregation that is trying, but if you aren’t vitally in touch with God’s Spirit, you are missing out on the life God has for you. The Holy Spirit, he points out, is God’s agent on earth. Yet he is the least understood, least preached about, and least discussed member of the Trinity. That is sad, because without him, our spiritual lives will always become dry, mechanical, and a struggle. Too often, the body of Christ is divided into two sides. One side stresses the Word of God, separating itself from what it views as the emotional fanaticism often linked to those emphasizing the Holy Spirit. The other side is sometimes known for drifting into unbiblical manifestations and unorthodox teaching while attributing it all to the Spirit of God. But the Christianity we see in Scripture is both grounded in the Word and full of the Spirit. With stunning stories of how God is working in the lives of people and churches today and biblical teaching about the Holy Spirit, Jim Cymbala invites you to experience God in a fresh and vital way. Nothing else will change our prayer life, our study of God’s word, and our worship more than opening our hearts to the Spirit. If we want power, confidence, joy, peace, and more love in our lives, then we need a better understanding of how and why the Spirit moves so we can join him there.

1 Jesus Loves
$19.99Add to cartThe felt need of most Christians is the desire to grow closer in relationship with God. In The One Jesus Loves, Bob Crosby shows readers how to deepen their personal relationship with God by considering Jesus’ “circles of intimacy”-especially those who walked closest to him.All of us want to feel connected, a part of the circles in which we run. We don”t want to feel like the odd man out. Jesus had an inner circle. As a matter of fact, he had several circles of relationships around him. While many filled the outermost rings of spectator and acquaintance, only a few followed all the way to the most intimate places. Jesus was constantly and winsomely working to bring people closer to himself, calling them out of the far reaches and toward the inner circles. This was his passion. In an age that is desperate for God, how do we press in to become like the two disciples who asked if they could sit right next to Jesus, at his right and at his left? Can we join God”s inner circle? How can we make sure that we are on the closer path?

Urban Apologetics : Why The Gospel Is Good News For The City
$16.99Add to cartMuch of the New Testament was written in urban settings, in which the Christian communities had to deal head-on with issues such as race, equality, justice, sexuality, money, and economics. But much of today’s apologetics (engagement with the questions that people are asking about Christianity) come from suburban churches and academic studies. Urban believers-those who live and minister in America’s inner cities-often face unique issues, not often addressed by the larger Christian community. These questions aren’t neat or easy to answer but need to be addressed by applying biblical truth in the culture and challenges of urban life.
Author Chris Brooks has ministered for years in the urban environment as well as received extensive theological training. In Urban Apologetics, he seeks to connect the riches of the Christian apologetic tradition with the issues facing cities-such as poverty, violence, and broken families. He brings an urban rhythm and sensitivity to the task of demonstrating the relevance of faith and the healing truth that Christ provides.

Help And Hope For The Single Parent
$7.99Add to cartIf you’ve ever wished that you could hold hands with someone other than your child, this book is for you. And if you miss the season of life when you had more grown-up conversations than discussions about Dora the Explorer, this book is for you.
Nearly half of all children born in America are born into single parent homes. Dr. Evans tells of a conversation he had with one of these children: My heart was broken recently when the son of one of the single parents in our church looked up at me and said, “Pastor, why won’t God give me a dad? Every night I ask God to give me a dad, but He won’t give me one.”
Single parents have the toughest job in the world because the obstacles can be overwhelming. You’ve got to work, clean, take care of the kids, help with homework, pay the bills, fix the car, shop for groceries, cook, prepare your income taxes, etc. And though single parents are always around another person, this season can be quite lonely. Additionally, there is often guilt that can creep in and make you feel like you are the worst parent in the world. Though being a single parent is tough, it is also a hopeful season.
In Help and Hope for Single Parents, Dr. Evans gives an encouraging reminder – You are not alone! And your child has the most amazing Parent in the Lord. God can and will help you take care of your children. There is Help & Hope for Single Parents.

For Freedom Or Bondage

Take This Cup

Every moment of the day practising God’s presence, being made conformable unto his death, that we would not react to the outer pressures, circumstances etc. that we experience in our daily life. That we understand that we don’t have to sin daily, but live victoriously in the one we focus our attention on.

Shhhhh Dont Tell
$10.99Add to cartElizabeth Inman is a woman who has made every mistake there is to make and only by the grace of God has she survived. She has hurt everyone she loves and she has hurt herself, but God . . . She is living proof that God is a God of second, third, a million second chances and she has taken advantage of every one of them.
She is living proof that you can reach rock bottom, take your life to the pits of hell, and God can still restore and heal and nurture and love. From wallowing in the pits of guilt and condemnation and then back on the road to glory, Elizabeth’s sole desire is to love God as she helps hurting people, and especially hurting women.
If you have covered up the deep hurt inside with your attempts to be perfect, if you have lied to yourself about the pain that resides deep within you, this book will resonate with your Spirit and hope will revive and propel you forward to a brand new beginning.
If you have believed the lie that your sin is unforgiveable, if you have believed it’s too late to try God, this book will convince you that it’s never too late that all you have to do is never, ever give up. Within these pages you will read Elizabeth’s story. A story of bad choices, lying, deception, pain, grief, and guilt and you will see the hope that kept her alive when all she wanted was to die. You will find hope that brings the ultimate glory hidden in the most hideous ashes of a path of destruction. Destruction planned by the enemy but hope fulfilled in the heavenlies by a loving Father and a glorious Savior.

I Love You More Than More
$26.99Add to cartThis story will warm your heart and make you smile as you follow the growing “I love you more” debate between a father and daughter. In the end they find that real love is beyond measuring.
I Love You More Than More is as sweet and endearing as a children’s book could be. It leaves you with the feeling that you’ve just drank a warm cup of cocoa and gotten a big hug.
This book was inspired by an actual incident, when my then six-year old daughter ended an “I-love-you-more” debate by declaring, “Dad, I love you MORE than more.” I had to record the event, adding a little imaginative exaggeration. It is dedicated to both my daughters, Cate and Allison, who I love “more than more.”

Angels Without Wings
$12.49Add to cartUtilizing personal testimonies to communicate his spiritual wisdom and insight into the world of gang violence and substance abuse, Eugene McDuffie once again delivers a message of hope and redemption in “Angels without Wings”, the follow up to his book “Missing Love Child”. “I already have accepted the fact I was born to raise myself and did everything for me by myself. I am my own father.”
Far from the dry rhetoric of the customary treatment of the issue of gangs, Eugene breaths vibrant life and great understanding into the depictions of his own experiences and those of the children with which he has worked as a youth advocate. Having experienced life on the streets firsthand, Eugene is uniquely qualified and capable of presenting the issues in a manner accessible to people of all walks of life.
“Hope,” who spoke some words to me that I am sure I will never forget as long as I shall live. Her words to me were: “When one door closes….
Attacking the subject matter from all angles, Eugene educates his readers as to how gang violence, and the greater societal problems of which gangs are a symptom, effects all aspects of society, and further suggests a call to action, and how by strengthening families and an individual’s relationship with God, the problem can be addressed at its roots.
Eugene Lee McDuffie’s “Angels without Wings” boldly takes a stand against gangs, and bullies, exposing the pitfalls of entanglement in gang involvement. “Children develop an attachment to those who show them attention and respond to their needs reliably. The bond that a child has with its caregiver will impact the child for the rest of its life.”
We all can do something about this problem, I learned, as I stepped out on faith alone to educate and help children stay away from gangs, drugs and violence. The question is: Are there angels? You and I know the answer is yes! There are definitely angels! Any person, if we choose to be, can be an Angel without Wings!

Wake Up Crazy World
$17.99Add to cartOver the years, Hollywood has learned the secret of how to captivate our minds through the art of make-believe. Life in our world has become so unpredictable and uncertain, that it has become hard to distinguish between real-life and make-believe. It’s time for God’s true people to “wake up,” and distance themselves as much as possible from the perils of a negative world; and take time to live a life filled with hope and promise. Putting our trust in God, loving and enjoying our families, respecting others and showing appreciation to our friends can put us in the frame of mind to continuously thank God for the precious time He has allowed us on this earth.

Dancing With The Devil
$17.99Add to cartIn Dancing with the Devil, evangelist Melvin Pillay addresses cultural Christianity in America and the adversary’s plot to pull the Church into a deadly waltz of apostasy. This wake-up call will challenge readers to examine one’s personal faith and understanding of biblical Christianity. As a missionary from South Africa, Pillay shares his heart for the American church to turn the tide back toward a nation that is submitted to God’s authority rather than pinned under man-made institutions. Much like C.S. Lewis’ Screwtape Letters, strategies of the enemy are exposed and brought to light. The forgotten pillars of the Christian life are outlined with an honest heart to see God’s people return to their intended purpose and calling. Jesus gave the mandate to discern the times, to watch and pray. This timely word is speaking to the Body of Christ and her need to rise up against the threat of spiritual darkness and prepare for His return.

Peter Effect : Rock Solid Faith
$16.49Add to cartLook for God in your life today! See where you are when you see Him. Think about who you are with when you see Him. What are you doing when you see Him? The challenge may be to see where you are when you hear His voice. Who are you with when you hear His voice? What are you doing when you hear His voice?
Ryan Keim experienced a terrifying event: being first on the scene of a dreadful car wreck that he and his children might easily have been part of. Looking back, he examines his feelings and reactions to the incident with the perspective of what he has learned from the faith of the apostle Peter as described in Matthew 14-the story of Jesus walking on water.
Peter stepped out in confidence and in trust; he had complete faith in God’s ability to allow him to walk to Him on water.
But the world intruded, as the world so often does. The frantic pace of today’s life makes it hard to slow down and actually see, though doing so, Keim explains, is critical to a believer’s successful life.
Peter slowed down to understand what was going on around him. If this mindset change had not happened, he would have drowned, swam back to the boat, or even cried out to the others for their help…Although he allowed the world around him to come back into his mind for a split second, he still cried out to Jesus…He cried out for Him, and like always, Jesus was there reaching out to help His child.
The nature of Peter’s faith in this story is an example of the Christian life. Ryan Keim has been where Peter was. Everyone, at some point, has been. Maintain focus on God, The Peter Effect declares, always.

Introduction

2. The Mind
3. The Body
4. Time
5. The Home
ConclusionAdditional Info
How many of you reading this right now go throughout each day in a mad rush, stepping over clutter, looking for misplaced items on your way out the door, going from activity to activity, while trying to fit everything into a jam packed schedule, just hoping to make it through the day? Pamela Dorough writes,Clutter is not limited to merely encompassing your field of vision alone; clutter can also invade your mind, body, spirit, time, and activities, as well as other areas of your life.
Dorough shows practical ways to rid you of all areas of clutter, giving you the freedom to live more stress-free.
To begin the journey on the road to de-clutter, the heart and soul of your being must first be addressed. What better place to start the de-clutter process than your spirit!
Reading Dorough’s clear, earnest and sincere words is like listening to a friend gently and lovingly explain how to improve yourself and your life. In easy to comprehend language, she details how to evaluate, prioritize, and then organize, in order to create, maintain and enjoy a relationship with God. The freedom to be organized and uncluttered becomes an outgrowth of that intimacy.
Ever since the day that He, (God), spoke to me in my basement and told me to “Get rid of the clutter,” I have never been the same. God has worked with me over several years to be able to conquer the task of de-clutterization in all areas of my life.
Dorough’s insight and practical guidance make this a book equally suited for wholesale consumption, chapter-by-chapter perusal or handy reference in times of stressed disarray. The Road to De-clutter is as much a reference for successful Christian living as it is an organizational guide.

Pray It Down
$15.99Add to cartWhen a situation arises in one’s life that tries or tests our faith,
we immediately want to push the “panic” button in our brains and fill our minds with hopelessness that things could not possibly get better from here. Too many times, instead of fighting in one’s faith for “IT” to change, God’s people go around defeated, miserable, depressed, confused-thinking, “This is just part of life,” and we accept “IT.” The reality is, you do not have to accept anything from the devil. He is out to rob, blind, bind and destroy God’s people.
No longer are you to give the devil a foothold.
Despite the enemy’s schemes, God has a Plan for each of us to live a fulfilled, abundant life through Christ! When you start to activate your faith in God, things change. Mountains crumble. Walls fall down. How is this done, exactly? By Prayer…applied in four, easy steps. Pray “IT” Down is intended to inform, remind, and encourage believers, that through Jesus Christ, the devil is the defeated one, and you are made a Victorious overcomer through every trial and battle you will face. This book is to be used as a tool to help you center your relationship with Christ and experience a spiritual breakthrough in your life!
Pray “IT” Down until your troubles are under your feet.“A common misconception people have about Christians is that they never “have any problems” or “struggle with their emotions” as everybody else does; as though depression, temptation and confusion, just to name a few, don’t exist for Christians…”
