Power And Prayers To Prevail Over Spiritual Garments Of Hindrance
$16.86Jesus said in Matthew 11:25 that the Father hid certain things from the wise yet revealed them “unto babes.” When the Holy Spirit reveals hidden truths, God’s people are empowered to undo-and even prevent-the works of Satan. Revelation can set the captives free and glorify our Lord!
Power and Prayers to Prevail Over Spiritual Garments of Hindrance is the record of such a revelation. Through this book, you will learn how unholy inheritances, transfers, ancestral links and covenants, curses, and habitual sinful living serve to dress us in demonically-designed spiritual garments that hinder our lives and destinies. Most importantly, you will learn about the great forces at work behind these unholy vestments.
But there is good news! You will also discover how the understanding of truth and the path of holiness can clothe you in the divine garments of blessing, progress, and fulfillment.

Preaching Character : Reclaiming Wisdoms Paradigmatic Imagination For Trans
$38.30In this final installment from the long-running and celebrated Conference on Preaching book series, an energetic group of scholars join together across ethnic and theological divides to consider one lasting question: ”What is a life well-lived in the world that Wisdom fashions?”
For over a decade, the Conference on Preaching has generated conversation among evangelicals, postliberals, and mainline Protestants by bringing together well-known biblical scholars and homileticians across the theological spectrum. In Preaching Character, editors Dave Bland and David Fleer turn to the papers from the October 2009 conference on preaching and wisdom.
Wisdom is fundamentally about the formation and transformation of character, they write. When God created the world, God breathed wisdom into its essence; the world operates by wisdom. Thus wisdom is essential to living responsibly in this world. It is by wisdom that God empowers humans to negotiate the complexities of life. And it is by wisdom that we deepen our relationship with God and with others.
Believing that the task of preaching biblical wisdom is about shaping the character of the faith community and its individual members, the contributors to this book seek to echo wisdom’s call to embark on a fascinating and often unpredictable adventure. Intrigue, disappointment, joy, suffering, conflict, dialogue, and satisfaction fill the journey. Wisdom offers no guarantees along the way regarding rewards or financial security or physical well-being. But the journey with wisdom does guarantee the kind of character that enables individuals to live responsibly in community, reflecting the very nature of the God they serve.

Re Imaging Election
$29.99In Re-Imaging Election Suzanne McDonald offers a fresh approach to the doctrine of election from a Reformed perspective, first by seeking greater acknowledgment that election is not only “in Christ” but also “by the Spirit,” and second by building on the scriptural and theological links between the doctrines of election and the image of God.
On the one hand, McDonald uses a pneumatological lens to analyze the doctrines of election found in John Owen (representing the historic Reformed tradition) and Karl Barth. As a result she claims that the earlier tradition maintains a better scriptural and Trinitarian balance between the work of the Son and the work of the Spirit in election, and also that pneumatological issues rather than christological ones raise the most acute questions for a Reformed approach to the doctrine.
On the other hand, McDonald draws attention to significant and converging insights concerning the scriptural contours of election and the image of God within contemporary biblical scholarship – insights that challenge aspects of Barth’s approach and that of historic Reformed orthodoxy alike.
This leads McDonald to develop a constructive proposal that posits representation (representing God to others and others to God) as a fruitful category for understanding the nature and purpose of election. In doing so, she seeks to restore the robust pneumatology characteristic of the earlier Reformed tradition without losing some of the central insights from Barth’s christological re-orientation of the doctrine.
While Re-Imaging Election is firmly rooted in the Reformed tradition, the re-expression of the doctrine presented here opens up new possibilities for dialogue across the theological spectrum and offers suggestive directions for reclaiming an often divisive doctrine in the life of the church.

Where Strangers Cross
$23.73They come from two different worlds. John (Jiang) Long grew up in rural China where the name Jesus never surfaced. Kevin Avery grew up 8,000 miles away with Christian parents in the suburbs of the United States. Humanly speaking, their paths should never cross, yet this situation changes when they follow a transforming Jesus. Not only does God divinely bring them together to start an international student ministry, but also, he reverses their residences. He plants Long as a pastor in Tulsa and sends Avery as a missionary to China, even to the mountain villages of Long’s youth. While in exchanged countries, they become strangers of this world, ready to disciple the nations in reverent brokenness.

With Calvin In The Theater Of God
$20.00Join the great Reformer John Calvin in seeing the glory of God on display in the world. John Calvin saw this world as God’s theater where his glory is always on display. Just as “day and night pour forth speech,” the universe and history are not silent either; they tell the glory of God. Reflecting on over 500 years of Calvin’s legacy, John Piper and this book’s other contributors invite us to join Calvin in the theater of God. Stemming from the Desiring God 2009 National Conference, this volume includes chapters by Julius Kim, Douglas Wilson, Marvin Olasky, Mark Talbot, Sam Storms, and John Piper. It touches on topics such as Calvin’s life, the Christian meaning of public life, sin and suffering, the joy of the last resurrection, and Jesus Christ as the denouement of God’s story. Editors John Piper and David Mathis, along with the contributors, make John Calvin’s Christ-exalting perspective on the glory of God accessible to today’s readers. Both Calvinists and other evangelicals interested in the life and work of Calvin will find these essays refreshing and instructive, leading to a robust understanding of the world as the theater of God.

Michigan Polar Bear Confronts The Bolshevik
$31.99This graphic first-person account of a little-remembered event in U.S. history tells the story of young soldier Godfrey Anderson’s experiences during the ill-fated 1918 military expedition against the Bolsheviks in the frozen reaches of northern Russia.
As a member of the American “Polar Bears” medical corps, Anderson describes traveling by ship and train, setting up field hospitals in the vast Siberian wilderness, enduring many hardships, rubbing shoulders with Russian villagers, barely escaping from the Bolsheviks in a harrowing nighttime retreat by sleigh, and much more. His transparent narrative, laced with ironic humor, has an irresistible, wide-eyed quality to it.
A substantial introduction by historian Gordon Olson sets the geopolitical stage for Anderson’s war memoir, which itself does not pass judgment on the American policy that sent him to Russia. All in all, for history and military buffs especially, this is a great story and a terrific read.

Lady In Waiting
$17.00Love is a choice you make every day.
Content in her comfortable marriage of twenty-two years, Jane Lindsay never expected to watch her husband Brad pack his belongings and walk out the door of their Manhattan home. But when it happens, she feels powerless to stop him and the course of events that follow Brad’s departure.
Jane finds an old ring in a box of relics from a British jumble sale and discovers a Latin inscription in the band along with just one other word: Jane. Feeling instant connection to the mysterious ring bearing her namesake, Jane begins a journey to learn more about the ring-and perhaps about herself.
In the sixteenth-century, Lucy Day becomes the dressmaker to Lady Jane Grey, an innocent young woman whose fate seems to be controlled by a dangerous political and religious climate, one threatening to deny her true love and pursuit of her own interests.
As the stories of both Janes dovetail through the journey of one ring, it becomes clear that each woman has far more influence over their lives than they once imagined. It all comes down to the choices each makes despite the realities they face.

Coming Present : Living With Multiple Personality Disorder Dissociative Ide
$28.73“The most significant result of dissociation was the loss of time. The most significant feeling during sexual abuse was powerlessness. There seemed to be no use to fighting, it was useless. Powerlessness led to the loss of hope. The loss of hope led to depression. Depression often followed me since I was young. I easily got depressed, and I turned my anger in on myself. The fear, led to anger. Anger that led to self loathing, low self esteem, and self- scratching to alter my low mood. Yet, even as I was plagued by these things, I kept up a “normal” lifestyle. I don’t think most of my friends even had a clue I was a multiple. Sometimes strange, or forgetful, even a liar, but not multiple.”
Caroline was the victim of repeated childhood sexual abuse and suffered from Multiple Personality Disorder/Dissociative Identity Disorder from the age of three. She cultivated a life of secrecy to avoid explaining her loss of time, body memories, and post-traumatic stress symptoms, fearful that psychiatrists would lock her up and throw away the key. As an adult, Caroline finally found a Christian therapist and began her healing journey, applying an adapted Attachment-Repair technique, giving glory to God, and becoming integrated. Most of her story is recorded in her journals.
Caroline is a first time author, a California native, married with three children. She has a passion to help multiples to seek Christian counseling and become integrated. She hopes her book will be useful to abuse survivors, their families, professionals in the field of Psychology, students, and support people of those suffering with Multiple Personality/Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Historical Jesus : What We Can Know And How We Can Know It
$20.99This provocative little book addresses two primary questions: What does “historical” mean? and How should we apply this to Jesus?
Anthony Le Donne begins with the unusual step of considering human perception – how sensory data from sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell are interpreted from the outset by what we expect, what we’ve learned, and how we categorize the world. In this way Le Donne shows how historical memories are initially formed. He unpacks the nature of human memory and how it interacts with group memories. Finally he demonstrates how his definition and philosophy of history can be used to illuminate three dimensions of Jesus’ life: his dysfunctional family, his politics, and his final confrontation in Jerusalem.

Revelation Of Jesus Christ In The Old Testament
$26.23Christ: The Angel of God.
Christ: The Battle Bow
Christ: A Goodly CedarSince the time that I accepted Jesus Christ as my Saviour in 1976, I have heard it said that He was the focus of the Bible. I have never doubted that. I have heard it said that Jesus Christ was the subject of each book of the Bible, including the Old Testament. I struggled with that, not because it was untrue, but because no one in my theological circle submitted proof that it was true. This book is proof that Jesus Christ can be found in each book of the Old Testament. Therefore, Jesus Christ is available to become the subject of any book of the Bible if we take this approach to the Scriptures.
What is the benefit of this approach? The Lord Jesus Christ becomes more precious to our souls as we encounter the varied facets of His Person. That should be enough, but now we can gain new insights into the Godhead and the inspired Word of God. This approach provides a fresh reason to study the Bible and a new direction in sermon and lesson preparation. Personal and family devotions are given new life in Christ. A fresh breeze blows across the pages of the Old Testament.
The book is arranged for ease of use. Section One contains all the designations of Christ arranged alphabetically. Section Two contains all the physical aspects of Christ arranged alphabetically. Section Three is arranged by the mentions of Christ in each book of the Old Testament.
Do you have your Bible? Do you have this book? Begin your journey seeking for “…the unsearchable riches of Christ.”

When God Changes A Church
$21.86When God changes a church, He begins with the leader. He changes him from the inside out. That person is known to us as the pastor. This role is pivotal to any real redemptive work that God will ultimately do in the life of a particular congregation. In this book, we will see how God changed a particular African American Church in Birmingham, Alabama. The pastor chronicles how God inspired a vision that changed a traditional church with traditional values into an outward focused ministry with real worldwide reaching possibilities.

Living Mission : The Vision And Voices Of New Friars
$25.99There is a new trend afoot, one that goes against the prevailing Western model, influenced by the values and principles of international commerce. Presented here are five “signs of life,” showcased by this network of movements best referred to as “new friars.” God’s kingdom in the hands of the people of God, the contributors to this book show us, is first and foremost incarnational, which leads necessarily to gospel witness that is devotional, communal, missional and marginal. With a survey of the history of new friar movements and commentary by forerunner, this seminal book, edited by Scott A. Bessenecker, paints a picture of mission that is new only because it has been neglected for so long, a mission that is truly good news to the people in its path.

Let God Talk To You
$21.25It is possible–you can hear from God!
Do you long for a closer connection to God?
To talk to Him and hear His voice?
To follow His instructions, if only you knew what He was saying?For many of us, talking to God sometimes feels like sending words out into empty space. And hearing from God as the biblical prophets did may seem like an ancient fairy tale.
But Becky Tirabassi shares that it really is possible to hear from God. In fact, God longs to talk to us. He loves us and wants to communicate with us, just as we desire to communicate with those we love. You’ll discover how to develop a conversational relationship with God, one where you can both talk to and hear from God.
You’ll see that God is talking all the time, and there’s no special prayer to pray or requirements to meet in order to hear from Him. Becky shows the many ways that God talks to us and how God has spoken to her in big and small ways, saying things that have redirected her day or changed her entire life. You can hear from God, too. When we set aside the time and focus our hearts on God every day, God talks to us.

Luke : A Theological Commentary On The Bible
$50.00Historian and theologian Gonzalez presents the beloved Gospel of Luke, who heralds Jesus’ birth as “good news of great joy for all the people” (Luke 2:10). Gonzalez guides us and challenges us to ask, “What is the modern relevance of this text?” The result is a fascinating and important theological discussion of Luke’s gospel and its relation to the life and proclamation of the church and its members.
This new series will build on a wide range of sources in areas such as biblical studies, the Christian tradition, popular culture, and the language of Christian worship. Whereas most commentaries emphasize the Bible’s ancient meaning, Belief concentrates on the living Word relative to the theological and ethical concerns of today. Noted scholars representing diverse backgrounds and perspectives will ensure a fresh and invigorating approach to the Bible. Nearly half of the volumes in the series will be written by women, and almost a third will be written by persons of color. Authors include Michael Battle, Anna Case-Winters, Harvey Cox, Miguel De La Torre, Boyung Lee, Thomas G. Long, Daniel Migliore, Stephanie Paulsell, Marcia Riggs, Donald Saliers, Ronald Sider, Leanne Van Dyk, and Allen Verhey.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Notes
AcknowledgmentsAdditional Info
In his third and final book in the Apprentice Series, James Bryan Smith helps us know how to live in relationship with others as apprentices of Jesus. “Apprentices of Jesus are not part-time do-gooders,” he writes. “They live in continuous contact with the kingdom of God, and are constantly men and women in whom Christ dwells. They do not sometimes tell the truth, sometimes live sacrificially or sometimes forgive. There are myriad opportunities for us to impact the world in which we live.” Yet many times we’ve gotten it wrong, tending to emphasize personal faith over social justice or vice versa. In these pages Jim Smith shows us how to bring spiritual formation and community engagement together, and then once again offers spiritual practices that root new, true narratives about God and the world in our souls. His insight and humility as a fellow learner with us will lead us to live in authentic ways as a good and beautiful community of Christ-followers, shining the light of the Spirit into every relationship.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Spirit And Trauma
$35.00Rambo draws on contemporary studies in trauma to rethink a central claim of the Christian faith: that new life arises from death. Re-examining the narrative of the death and resurrection of Jesus from the middle day–liturgically named as Holy Saturday–she seeks a theology that addresses the experience of living in the aftermath of trauma. Through a reinterpretation of “remaining” in the Johannine gospel, she proposes a new theology of the Spirit that challenges traditional conceptions of redemption. Offered, in its place, is a vision of the Spirit’s witness from within the depths of human suffering to the persistence of divine love.

10 Best Decisions A Man Can Make
$18.73Men today have important decisions to make about family, career, and ministry.

Farrel encourages men to discover the joy of finding their place in God’s plan as they

Abide In Christ
$15.70Bottom Of The Hill Publishing Publication
Christ beckons us to His banqueting table offering a room in His house, it is up to us whether we choose to step inside. To step though means to abide in Him and experience the unspeakable joy of dwelling with the King of Kings. Andrew Murray knew what it meant to be continually in the Father’s presence. Read these thirty-one heart-searching readings and learn how to live daily in closer communion and fellowship with Him. Accept God’s invitation and live in His blessing and glory instead of shuffling your feet at the gate. “Abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.” –1 John 2:28 “And now, to all God’s children whom He allows me the privilege of pointing to the Heavenly Vine, I offer my fraternal love and salutations, with the prayer that to each one of them may be given the rich and full experience of the blessedness of abiding in Christ. And may the grace of Jesus, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be their daily portion. Amen.” Andrew Murray was a South African writer, teacher, and Christian pastor. Murray considered missions to be “the chief end of the church.” He was one of the founders of the South African General Mission (SAGM) later becoming the Africa Evangelical Fellowship (AEF) in 1965.

10 In Time
$21.86When they went to school that day, the ten children had no idea that their lives were about to be drastically changed, or that they would be transported into the Middle Ages and end up in the midst of a battle that would change world history. Constantinople, under siege by the Turks, was about to fall. Cannons would fire, ships would burn, screams of charging Turks would fill their ears. Follow the students as they encounter the famous Italian soldier Guistiniani, and as they fight by his side. Meet courageous Emperor Constantine XI, who, though hugely outnumbered, fought the Turks to the death to protect his city. Could the children help save the city which the Roman emperor, Constantine I, had named for himself, and which so long had stood as a bastion of Christianity? What was the purpose of their sudden arrival there? Would their faith stand the test? Would they ever get home?

Understanding The Book Of Revelation
$33.11This book is about the truth revealed from the mystery hidden in the Book of Revelation. The Book of Revelation is about the missing information revealed to John because there was no record in the Bible about what happened to the perfect creation in Genesis 1:1. There was no record about Adam, created by the I AM, as the first God and his generations before this present world. The Bible has not recorded the lineage of Jesus from the I AM in order to present to the world who is Jesus. This is the truth that must be known. The Book of Revelation had been misunderstood because of the political interpretation of its images. In John 8:32, Jesus says, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” Here, the truth, refers to Jesus who has power to set humanity free from the bondage of the God of this world. Jesus declares in John 14: 6, that He is the “Truth”. After the gospel had been preached for thousands of years, humanity is still in captivity of the God of this world. Many people keep asking why a good God can allow these types of suffering. This shows that Jesus the “Truth” is not yet known. Confessing Jesus as a Savior is different from knowing Him. This has been done for thousands of years and the world is getting worst. When Jesus, the “Truth” is known, He will set humanity free from this spiritual enslavement. The revealed truth from the mystery in the Book of Revelation, presented here, is a divine journey toward knowing Jesus, the “Truth”. I encourage everyone to read this book.

Genesis And Life
$21.86Cleve Jones understands that so many people when facing many of the issues of life do not have the resources to get the help they need. Some problems are beyond the skill set of some pastors and churches. Sometimes people need a “quick hitter” to help them through the issue of the day and something inspirational, and thought provoking enough to get them to begin mentally processing about long term solutions. If this book can reach some people within that context, it will have served one of its purposes.

Step Stones : To The Second Greatest Commandment
$22.48He answered: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'” “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.” Luke 10: 27-28
If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing right. James 2: 8
I fear that Christians have gotten so caught up within our society that we have forgotten the first and second greatest commandments. In so doing we do ourselves more harm, yet it is our collective selfishness and stubbornness that keeps us from acknowledging that we are nothing without God. We are not doing right and I fear that many will not live. I also fear that many do not know what love is because we have misused the word so often. Step Stones is the path that God led me down when I needed to discover what love really is. My prayers are that it is not too late for our society; that Christians can be the ones leading us to a right standing so that we can we can be forgiven. We must first get back to the basics of what we are called to do. It all comes down to not what God can do for me, but what can I do to further the Kingdom of God. Only love true love will lead us out of this mess we are in.

Eighteen year-old Setan Lee was in shock as soldiers jumped out of huge trucks in Battambang Temple Square, shouting, “Enemies!” and pointing guns at them. This was the New Year celebration and they had no idea why these “black uniform soldiers” were ordering them out of the city at gunpoint to an unknown destination.

Something More : A Devotional Dimension For The Joseph-Daniel Calling
$18.73For those chosen, the Joseph-Daniel calling requires “something more.” The “something more” marks true Kingdom leadership with a maturity that endures. It demands a cost far beyond spoon feeding, or the good intentions, ambitions, or any other notion of man. While the more easily digestible milk mode referred to in Hebrews comes primarily from absorbing information, the meat or proactive mode to maturity takes time, dedication and a first-priority commitment. It is the dividing asunder between the many who are called and the few who are chosen. This book outlines a pathway to steward your calling. It is not designed for those focused on their comforts, the lusts of the flesh or the love of the world. If taken seriously and acted on; it will release the meat of maturity leading to “something more” than might ever come from the best of human efforts.

Revelation Of Jesus Christ In The Old Testament
$41.23Christ: The Angel of God.
Christ: The Battle Bow
Christ: A Goodly CedarSince the time that I accepted Jesus Christ as my Saviour in 1976, I have heard it said that He was the focus of the Bible. I have never doubted that. I have heard it said that Jesus Christ was the subject of each book of the Bible, including the Old Testament. I struggled with that, not because it was untrue, but because no one in my theological circle submitted proof that it was true. This book is proof that Jesus Christ can be found in each book of the Old Testament. Therefore, Jesus Christ is available to become the subject of any book of the Bible if we take this approach to the Scriptures.
What is the benefit of this approach? The Lord Jesus Christ becomes more precious to our souls as we encounter the varied facets of His Person. That should be enough, but now we can gain new insights into the Godhead and the inspired Word of God. This approach provides a fresh reason to study the Bible and a new direction in sermon and lesson preparation. Personal and family devotions are given new life in Christ. A fresh breeze blows across the pages of the Old Testament.
The book is arranged for ease of use. Section One contains all the designations of Christ arranged alphabetically. Section Two contains all the physical aspects of Christ arranged alphabetically. Section Three is arranged by the mentions of Christ in each book of the Old Testament.
Do you have your Bible? Do you have this book? Begin your journey seeking for “…the unsearchable riches of Christ.”

Always The Baker Never The Bride
$16.99Thirty-six-year-old Emma Rae Travis has been baking specialty cakes and melt-in-your-mouth pastries at The Backstreet Bakery in historic Roswell, just outside of Atlanta, for the last six years. But here’s the rub about her job as a baker … Emma is diabetic. When she tastes her creations, it can only be in the most minute portions. Emma is considered an artisan for the stunning creme brulee wedding cake that won her the Passionate Palette Award last year, but she’s never even had one full slice of it.
When Jackson Drake hears about this local baker who has won a prestigious award for her wedding cake artistry, he tells his assistant to be sure and include her in the pastry tastings scheduled at his new wedding destination hotel the following week. And for Jackson, that particular day has started out badly with two workmen trapped in a broken elevator and a delivery of several dozen 300-thread-count bed linens in the wrong size abandoned in the lobby. But when the arrogant baker he met a week prior in Roswell stumbles into the dining room with a platter of pastries and a bucketful of orders, he knows for certain: It’s going to be a really rotten day.
Can these two ill-suited players master the high-wire act and make a go of their new business venture? Or will they take each other crashing downward, without a net? And will the surprise wedding at The Tanglewood be theirs?

Good And Bad Ways To Think About Religion And Politics
$19.99Clear, useful guide to a subject too often characterized by confusion and loud rhetoric
“There is nothing greater than indignation to stimulate a writer to write, and my outrage has been stirred mightily by reading so many wrongheaded ‘takes’ on how religion and politics ought to be related,” says Robert Benne.
In this book Benne describes and analyzes the two main bad ways of relating religion and politics – “separationism” and “fusionism” – and offers a better way that he calls “critical engagement.” He first explains this approach in theoretical terms and then reflects on the practical ways in which such convictions reach the public sphere of policy. This better way derives in large part from the Lutheran tradition, with a few tweaks to adapt the tradition to deal with the new challenges of our present situation.

Stories That Feed Your Soul

Set around Romans 8, the stories center on eight gospel themes: freedom of condemnation, new life in Christ, intimacy with God, the call to rescue creation, living with hope, praying in the Spirit, God’s plans for us, and the assurance we need.

Shoop addresses this “dis-ease” with a theology that is attentive to physical experience.

Church And Countryside
$35.00“While in recent years much attention among theologians has been focused on the city and on what makes a good city, much of (church) life in Britain takes place in the context of rural communities. In the context of their daily work, clergy find themselves confronted with complex ethical, political and social issues. “”Church and Countryside”” maps out a rural theology that addresses some of the concerns faced by Britain’s rural population and those who minister to them. While other books in this field focus on practical (mission-orientated) aspects of ministry in the countryside, Tim Gibson offers a discussion of some of the relevant issues from the point of view of Christian ethics. An accessibly written and thoroughly researched piece of contextual theology that should become core reading for mission and ministry courses in theological colleges and ministry training courses.”
