Ive Never Been To Vegas But My Luggage Has
$15.99Add to cartWrong turns, humiliating flops, painful heartbreaks–and happiness? Yes, believe it or not, they “can “go hand in hand.
Blogger and author Mandy Hale, affectionately known as “The Single Woman” to her half-million social-media followers, is living an adventurous life that proves even our lowest lows and messiest mess-ups can point us toward our joy-filled destiny as single women.
In “I’ve Never Been To Vegas,” ” But My Luggage Has,” Mandy delivers heart-to-heart, often hilarious stories from a life filled with love and loss, glamour and goose bumps, faith and friendship, big dreams and battle scars. She shares the bittersweet euphoria of her high-school romance, the panic-stricken cluelessness of her first day on a stressful job, and the foot-in-mouth horror of her red-carpet interview with a music legend.Along the way, Mandy dollops personal anecdotes with encouraging insights. From thrilling first kisses to crushing break-ups, from soaring career milestones to promising flights that never quite got off the ground, she unfolds in often uproarious detail the zigzags along the path toward a pinnacle moment: sharing a table and a pinch-me-I’m-dreaming conversation with her lifelong hero.
In the end, Mandy turns Sin City’s infamous marketing slogan on its head: What “happens” in her life doesn’t “stay” in her life. She shares even her darkest moments in witty, winsome ways that make us not only feel her pain, but also laugh with her and apply her hard-won nuggets of inspiration to our own lives.
“Happily Ever After” might not look or feel quite like what we expect, but as Mandy is discovering–and as we can discover along with her–it is “well” within our reach.

Chapter 12. What Is Christian Hope? Beth Felker JoneAdditional Info
Everyone has questions about God and what matters most in life. When we ask those questions, we are asking about theology. Isn’t talk about God really a guessing game?What good is the Old Testament?How can we have free will if God controls everything?The virgin birth. Really?What does an earthquake say about God?Is the Holy Spirit still at work in churches today?What did Jesus think about getting married?Does being a Christian mean having particular political views? While books about doctrine supply description and analysis of the classic questions of the faith, they often miss the contemporary questions on the minds of readers. This book fills that gap. Organized around the key topics of Jesus, the Bible, church, the Holy Spirit, evil, salvation and hope, the sometimes-provocative questions on these topics aim to ring true with the lived experience of real people. Even more, they look to inspire reflection, debate, disagreement, and above all, engagement in what the Christian faith is all about. -

Can my life matter? How can I thrive? The answer to both questions is vocation. Vocation is more than our job. It is our relationships and responsibilities woven into the work of God. For decades Steve Garber has traveled the world, coming alongside a wide range of people as they seek to make sense of their world and their lives. We meet, with Garber, leaders from the Tiananmen Square protest in China and a group of musicians who called themselves Jars of Clay. And we meet ordinary people too, like: Jonathan who learned he would rather build houses than study historyTodd and Maria who adopted creative schedules so they could parent better and practice medicineD.J. who helped Congress move into the Internet AgeSusan who built a home business of hand-printing stationary using a letterpressSantiago who works with majority-world nations in need of capitalClaudius and Deirdre whose openhearted home has always been a place for people Vocation is when we come to know the world in all its joy and pain, and still love it. Vocation is following our calling to seek the welfare of the world we live in. And in helping it to flourish, we find that we flourish too. Garber offers here a book for parents, for those in the arts, in the academy, in public service, in the trades and in commerce–for all who want to discover the virtue of vocation. -

Sailboat Church : Helping Your Church Rethink Its Mission And Practice
$20.00Add to cartIs your church a rowboat church or a sailboat church?
Rowboat churches depend largely on human effort.

Gray encourages readers to shift concern from the many daily, practical concerns of their local church to consider how new directions might be found by allowing the Holy Spirit to provide fresh ideas. The book includes 40 days of sailing prayers, quotes from Scripture, brief reflection questions, and an extensive bibliography that is arranged by theme. Perfect for groups to read together, this book will help leaders reframe their church’s mission and practice with the Holy Spirit as their guide.

Power Of Gods Names Member Book (Student/Study Guide)
$20.99Add to cartThe Power of God’s Names – Member Book includes small-group experiences for six sessions, individual study and learning activities five days a week, Scriptures that reveal the meanings of God’s names, and DVD viewer guides. To fully grasp the significance and power of knowing God’s names, you first need to understand the context of names within biblical cultures. In Old Testament times a name was more than simply nomenclature. It was, rather, a replica and revelation of the individual or thing itself.
The study examines 11 names of God. The words translated as name show up over one thousand times in Scripture and routinely carry with them power, responsibility, purpose, and authority. A name not only expresses the essence and significance of what is being named but also-when duly authorized-accesses the capacity intrinsic within it. Because of God’s depth of character, He has a variety of names to reflect His different capacities of relating to humanity. For example, God is called Elohim when referenced as the all-powerful Creator. When you need provision, get to know the name Jehovah Jireh, which means God, the Provider. God has a name for any and every situation you can find yourself in. Get to know the names of God because it is in knowing His character and His capacity that you will rest and discover both peace and power in His covenant care.

Holy Spirit And Ethics In Paul (Revised)
$59.00Add to cartPart 1. Religious-Ethical Empowerment Through Infusion-Transformation
Part 2. Religious-Ethical Empowerment By The Relational Work Of The Spirit
Part 3. ConclusionsAdditional Info
Among the different understandings of the Spirit in the New Testament, Paul’s Spirit language stands out for being at once dynamic and sometimes impersonal-inviting comparison with the Stoic notion of spirit (pneuma) as a substance. Volker Rabens reexamines Paul’s statements about the Spirit in the widest possible contexts and argues that the alleged parallels with Stoic conceptions are at best ambiguous. Paul understands the work of the Spirit relationally, Rabens argues, and it is through intimate relationships that the Spirit transforms and empowers people’s lives. -

O God Beloved if obliquely so,
dimly apprehended in the midst
of this, the fraught obscuring fog
of my insufficiently capacious ken,
Ostensible Lover of our kind–while
apparently aloof–allow
that I might glimpse once more
Your shadow in the land, avail
for me, a second time, the sense
of dire Presence in the pulsing
hollow near the heart.
Once more, O Lord, from Your Enormity incline
your Face to shine upon Your servant, shy
of immolation, if You will. -

The Untold Story of Noah’s Wife
By Rebecca Kanner
reading group guidecustomer reviewsIn the spirit of Anita Diamant’s The Red Tent comes an extraordinary debut novel that breathes life into Noah’s wife and combines history and mythology in an intensely suspenseful, page-turning narrative.The Bible neglects to give her a name, but in this ambitious, intricately woven novel, Rebecca Kanner gives Noah’s wife a voice and a rich, complex emotional life.
Cursed with a prominent birthmark on her face that many think is the mark of a demon, she is reviled by everyone except her father. To keep her safe, he gives his virtuous daughter to the ancient and righteous Noah who takes her to the town of Sorum, a land of outcasts and pariahs.
Though the 600-year old Noah prospers there, his wife is more alone than ever, living with an aloof husband who speaks more to God than with her, trying to make friends with the violent townsfolk and raising three sons who have developed some sinful tendencies themselves. When God tells Noah to build an ark so that he, his wife, three sons, and their three wives can repopulate the earth after the flood, her trials only multiply.
Not since The Red Tent has a novel so brilliantly illuminated the plight of forgotten Biblical women. Through her protagonist’s eyes, Rebecca Kanner explores the blurring lines between right and wrong as one woman struggles to find purpose and identity in a drowning world.

Yet as the secret hostess of an advice blog called Scarlett Says, she discovers she’s quite adept at dispensing advice in Scarlett’s devil-may-care tone.
Joan is happy to live vicariously . . . until she meets Charles, a Christian and faithful Scarlett Says reader, who suddenly has Joan dreaming of something more. Since Scarlett has never let her down, Joan digs deeper and deeper into her heroine’s mind, searching for something to calm her rising insecurities.

Here leading scholars explore the contours of the Watchers traditions through history, tracing their development through the Enoch literature, Jubilees, and other early Jewish and Christian writings. This volume provides a lucid survey of current knowledge and interpretation of one of the most intriguing theological motifs of the Second Temple period. -

From the earliest days of Christianity, theologians of the church have drawn upon the most sophisticated language and understandings of their time in an attempt to clarify and express that faith.But how should we attempt to articulate that faith today? In this volume, Ernest Simmons engages precisely that question by asking what the current scientific understanding of the natural world might contribute to our reflection upon the relationship of God and the world in a Triune fashion.

Secret Language Of Successful Couples
$15.99Add to cartWhy is it so hard for married couples to get in sync with each other? How is it that your mate can be a source of joy and of frustration all on the same day?
Marriages operate by a secret language–a collection of key words, actions, insights, and attitudes that determine how a couple’s relationship works.

Bill and Pam Farrel, authors of the bestselling Men Are Like Waffles, Women Are Like Spaghetti, offer biblical and practical insight into this language that God has programmed into each married couple. Laced with the Farrels’ trademark humor, The Secret Language of Successful Couples is packed with ideas to help couples connect at a richer, deeper level. As both partners grow in relationship with God and rely on the Spirit for insights into the heart of their mate, they can replace their old, selfish languages with a new one that leads to greater intimacy in every area of life.

Mark Of Evil
$17.99Add to cartEconomies have fallen, freedom has been suppressed, and peace is a distant memory. The world is falling apart. Joshua Jordan’s protege Ethan March, along with Jimmy Louder and Rivka Reuban have been left behind in a world that is rapidly coming under the complete influence of the Antichrist.
Technology is growing by leaps and bounds, with BID-Tag implants, robotic police units, and drone-bots flying overhead . . . all designed to control and dominate those who resist the Antichrist’s reign of evil. As Biblical prophecy is fulfilled each new day, Ethan and the others in the Remnant struggle to eat, to procure necessary goods, and to avoid the Global Alliance—in short, to survive.
But when the forces of evil attempt to pervert the world’s most powerful information system to their own sinister ends, eliminating everyone who gets in their way, it’s up to Ethan and the Remnant to subvert their dark ambitions.
From New York Times best-selling author Tim LaHaye, creator and co-author of the world-renowned Left Behind books, and Craig Parshall, Mark of Evil is the final thrilling chapter in The End series.
With high-tech thrills against a background of prophetic events that seem to leap from today’s news, this is the story of global tribulations bringing the world one step closer to the reign of the Antichrist and the return of Jesus Christ in glory.

What Cannot Be Fixed
$16.00Add to cartWhat Cannot Be Fixed is anchored in the terrain of the broken world: the old Adam, the prodigal son, loneliness, exile, and Christ’s cries of abandonment on the cross. There is much that cannot be fixed, but in the midst of the loss are the flashes and glimmers of promise, of Advent, of reunion, the empty tomb, and grace. Words uncurl in Eve’s throat, the conductor raises his baton in that split second before the music begins, the blind see, the atheist heart patient hears God in the music of the recovery room. God is there, his shape sometimes difficult to discern, his words often whispers amidst the daily-ness of life. This collection of poems is about living the paradox: simul justus et peccator-the believer is both justified and a sinner. It is true that much of what we see and live cannot be fixed. And it is also true that the potter reworks the broken pot.

Grace : More Than We Deserve Greater Than We Imagine
$19.99Add to cartAs believers in Christ, we claim to understand grace. From Sunday school to adulthood we’ve been taught that we’re saved by grace. We know the Bible verses and the sinner’s prayer, but have we really taken hold of it? Or rather, has it taken hold of us?
Grace isn’t a nice idea. It’s not a song lyric, or a warm, fuzzy feeling. It’s the radical life of Christ lived in you. Grace gives you the freedom to love the unlovable, and forgive the unforgivable, because you know how much you’re loved, and know how much you’ve been forgiven.In Grace: More Than We Deserve, Greater Than We Imagine, Max Lucado calls readers back to consider the abundant richness of God’s offer. It’s an offer to live a changed life, a call to genuine transformation and the courage to see it through. Don’t let grace pass you by. When you let it in, it will rock your world, and change your heart.

Dare Mighty Things
$22.99Add to cartIn Dare Mighty Things, Halee Scott proposes that it’s time for a new conversation about Christian women leaders. Western women live in a time of unparalleled freedom and opportunities. Although women are still underrepresented in leadership positions in every sector of American life—from politics to business to the church—the truth is that women have more opportunities to have a meaningful impact on our world and our society today than at any other time in human history.
The leadership potential of Christian women has been further truncated by the theological debate over the nature of women’s leadership in the church. While this conversation is an important one, it’s not the only conversation we should have about Christian women leaders. Since complementarians and egalitarians both agree that women can be leaders in some capacity, it’s time to focus on what unites us rather than divides us.
To help women steward their giftedness and thrive in their areas of leadership, Dare Mighty Things discusses the main challenges and strategies for success for Christian women leaders.

For His Name Yeshua
$14.95Add to cartOlive Press Publisher (www.olivepresspublisher.com)
Publisher Marketing: If you are a person who does not simply accept what you’ve been taught, then this book is for you.

You are invited to be spiritual archeologists to carefully uncover what is missing in our understanding of Yeshua and His Name-things that have gotten lost in translation, in transliteration, and in tradition. What you discover will ignite a fire in your spirit to continue digging to really know Yeshua from the Tribe of Judah and the House of David, the Savior of both Jews and Gentiles, to know the depth of the meaning of His real Name and to know the richness of the Hebrew culture He designed. This “excavation” is for tearing down, restoring, and rebuilding. Life will come out of dead stones, which will shout in praise to YHVH, the Eternal God.

Grace Is Free
$9.99Add to cartWhat Does “Godly” Look Like?
A great treason is infiltrating the Christian world today. The gospel is meant to set people free, but instead it has been subtly tainted by the enemy. False teaching has slipped in virtually unnoticed, but its effects are deadly. To-do-lists, competition (even with spiritual disciplines) and extra rules have enslaved women to self-righteousness instead of leading them to Christ’s righteousness. Disguised as “helpful tips for women,” this distortion robs Christian women of intimacy with each other and labels them as “godly” for what amounts to human effort and worldly success.
Many people view this competition for godliness as striving for excellence. After all, what man doesn’t want a woman who is zealous to be the best homemaker, mother, and wife? But if organization and domestic genius were prerequisites for godliness, then Martha Stewart would be one of the godliest women in the world. The truth is, when women spend more time trying to appear godly rather than actually being close to God, there can be no other motive than a desire for approval from people rather than from God himself.
Grace Is Free unmasks this false gospel and the bondage to people’s approval that comes with it. It attempts to realign perspectives and help women understand how to rest through faith in what has already been accomplished through Jesus Christ. The true gospel is received through faith, not activity. “For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: ‘The righteous will live by faith.'” (Romans 1:17)

But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit.

Does the Holy Spirit have you? This booklet explains the difference and how Christians can come into the fullness of the Holy Spirit rather than just a measure.

Deeper Look Into The Death Of Jesus
$13.49Add to cartJesus, the Son of man, not only died on the Cross, but He died another death that no one talks about. He spoke of the death of His soul as did the prophet Isaiah. How does one make His soul “an offering for sin”? Symbolically, why were two goats needed for one atonement? Jesus’ soul went to hell in our place, but He didn’t stay there. What happened to the soul of Jesus? Why was His resurrection not enough? Why did He not allow Mary to touch Him in His glorified body, yet He invited Thomas to do so? In what two ways did Jesus “ascend”? Uncover these nuggets and many more within the pages of this book-written simplistically and with points to review at the end of each section.

Healing And The Miraculous
$13.49Add to cartIt has been more than thirty-six years since God miraculously healed Joan of several physical disorders, within seconds: an intestinal disease, arthritis in her spine and discs, deteriorating spine and discs, severe pain in her back from a mild case of Polio, as well as one leg being two and one half inches shorter than the other. To be set free from the excruciating pain of these diseases within seconds was a day she will never forget! Her doctor wanted her in a wheelchair; to be able to function as a wife and mother was something she never thought she would have the privilege of again. But God in His mercy, power and love, totally healed her forever; preparing her for a Prophetic ministry.
As a result of Joan’s healing, her love for Him grew and she began to know Him in a greater way than she had before. Now, knowing of His miraculous healing power, she wants others to know that God will do the same for them if they believe. God is no respecter of persons and His Word never fails! He is faithful and wants to see all of His children healed.
Joan’s prayer is that as you read her real life stories of heartwarming faith in Healing and the Miraculous, your faith will grow and you too will be able to praise Him for your miraculous healing!

House Of Pain
$14.49Add to cartChurch Hurt. Whoever coined this phrase should get a Nobel prize for Truth. Who would have imagined that some of the most memorable church moments, or moments in life for that matter, would be those that evolved around the topic of church hurt. We certainly expect hurt from our family, hurt from our friends, even hurt from total strangers. But to be hurt by those that profess to know, love and serve the same God that I know, love and serve was more than I could have ever fathomed.
Consequently, this book was borne out of the conversations and eventual revelation received from God Himself regarding the pain experienced as the result of church experiences. This subject is approached in an effort to take a candid look at “church hurt”, the effects it has on us as Christians, and ultimately the positive results it can have on our Christian growth.

Supernatural Transformation
$16.99Add to cartThe central organ of the human body is the heart. It circulates the blood throughout the whole bodily system, pumping oxygen and nutrients to the other organs and pulling toxins away from them.
Yet we human beings have another “heart”-a spiritual one-that is the true center of our existence. Our spiritual heart is our identity. It is the foundation of our whole being, from which our desires, designs, purposes, will, thoughts, and attitudes originate.
Yet, as a result of the fall and our sinful nature, we all have symptoms of “heart disease,” and we need to know how to become spiritually heart-healthy. As the Scriptures say, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9). Every spiritual, mental, and emotional matter-and many physical ones-is rooted in the heart. The state of our spiritual heart affects all aspects of our daily living. Therefore, the condition of our heart will be the condition of our life.
Join Apostle Maldonado in a journey of discovery into the purpose, motivations, and potential of our spiritual heart. God wants us to understand how, in Christ, our heart is designed to “pump” life to our entire being-producing mental, emotional, and physical health and removing the toxins of sin.
We were created to reflect the heart of our heavenly Father. And God is ready even now to change our heart to be like His through a supernatural transformation!

Cloud Of Unknowing
$15.99Add to cartFew things are as eternal in this world as man’s quest to better know and understand his Creator. Because the human mind is far too small to fully grasp the Almighty, believers who try to approach Him intellectually often “freeze up,” entering into a “cloud of unknowing.” But God is approachable.
The Cloud of Unknowing dates back as far as the fourteenth century and has inspired generations of seekers in their efforts to connect with God. Created as a primer to instruct young monks to develop techniques for encountering God, its tone is not academic or austere but rather a loving call for believers to grow closer to God through meditation and prayer.
If you desire to experience God in your heart, and yourself in God’s heart, The Cloud of Unknowing will be a book to read and reread for a lifetime.

$14.99Add to cartTwo years ago this Christmas, Sadie Bennett’s beloved husband was killed in a tragic accident at the local sawmill. What was once her favorite time of year now haunts her, with its cheerful trappings a cruel reminder of the love she lost.

When she finds herself assigned to the committee tasked with picking a Christmas tree for the town square of Little Hickman Creek, she begrudgingly agrees but determines to fulfill her duties to the bare minimum.

Underground Church
$19.99Add to cartThe Chinese house church is one of the most misunderstood and controversial subjects in Christian world missions today. Many questions about it abound, such as…
*How did it start?
*How does it work?
*How is it led?
*Why does it continue to experience revival?
*Is it necessary, now that China has extended religious freedoms?Much of the confusion is caused by the Chinese government, which deceives journalists and foreign missionaries with promises of religious freedom that are never kept.
The truth is, the house churches of China are growing at a phenomenal rate.

Servants Heart : Tips For The Associate Minister
$15.49Add to cartIf you are a minister serving under a senior pastor or a lay leader in the church contemplating greater service in the Kingdom, you may be facing frustration about the direction of the ministry God has given you. You know that God has placed something within you, but you are having trouble finding out exactly how to openly express this inward passion. Well, this book will help you find the direction you need.
In A Servant’s Heart, Pastor Kenneth Kemp explores the ways an associate minister-one who serves under a senior pastor-can be effective in the role of a subordinate leader. Having served many years in this role himself, Pastor Kemp sees the role of the associate minister as being integrally important to the ministry of the church, rather than just a temporary position to occupy until something better comes along. He prepares the associate minister with practical advice from the basics of accepting the Master’s call to speaking to social issues to dealing with frustration. Each chapter presents a review of an important ministerial development concept, followed by a sermonic presentation to illustrate that concept. You will be a better preacher, leader, member, and servant if you read and adhere to these practical tips for the associate minister

God Speaks We Listen
$14.49Add to cartMost people spend lots of time praying, meditating and talking with God. Do we ever think about listening? Do we listen to God when he speaks to us? Nobody tells us how to do it. Listening takes practice but talking comes easy. We like the way our voice sounds, even when we pray. If we stop talking and start listening, God will speak to us. Just think about Samuel and Moses and Noah. Their lives changed dramatically when they listened to God. We should meet God on a regular basis, not only to talk with him but also to listen. “Be still and know that I am God” (Psalms 46:10). Being still is a key to listening. Being quiet is another. Both takes practice. Our busy lifestyle seems to hurry us along so fast we never have time to be still and be quiet. Many men in biblical times had this same problem, but when they learned to listen, God made amazing changes in their lives.
God Speaks We Listen visits some of these men. They can teach us how to listen. God still speaks to us today, if we will only listen.

Witnessing In The 21st Century
$12.49Add to cartIn this extremely relevant work, Dr. Perez relates the state of evangelism in today’s Church to that of the first century Christians. He includes a concise yet thorough history of Christianity’s first 400 years or so as an example of the changes and challenges facing present-day believers. He goes on to describe the beginnings of secular humanism and its far-ranging, increasing, and heartbreaking influence around the world today. The most significant element of this manuscript is that it is not another preach-the-gospel-into-the-world exhortation; it is instead a call to something much more challenging: the (often, and apparently inaccurately, attributed to St. Francis) advice to “Preach the gospel, and if necessary, use words.” This is not to say Dr. Perez is in any way minimizing the necessity to proclaim the name of Jesus. Rather, he rightly asserts that “Evangelism, or the spreading of the ‘good news,’ begins with you, the individual.” Even more critical is the declaration that salvation is not a doctrine but a Person.

God Still Works
$11.99Add to cartThis is not to make money for me or the ministry…but it is to remind me of all the miraculous things God has done…
Rev. Eddie Watson is genuine, humble and sincere in his conviction that God works-works, not past tense-His miracles everday, everywhere and in every way. Are you aware that God is working all around you? He’s providing protection, answering prayers and offering guidance.
The road that God has for us to travel is seldom easy. Many times we bring things on ourselves that cause us problems, but we have a promise from the Lord that no matter what we must go through, it will be for good.
He will use friends and family. He will use health issues and heartache. He will use people, problems and persecution. He will use kids, creditors and college examinations. He will use ministers, mishaps and mundane rituals. He will use loved ones, law officers and log chains. He will use doctors, deacons and even demons to get you to the point of true blessing. If you are not in a position to see God work in your life, you should probably change positions!
We should seek the Lord, but wait until we see where He is working before taking action. Most will use this as an excuse for not doing anything for the Lord. The problem is that they are not actually seeking, because then they must put their faith into action, and many times their faith is not strong enough to act.
God Still Works is a loving yet direct message to both the increasingly complacent Christian church and the individual believer. Through testimonies of divine intervention, Rev. Watson proclaims the ever-presence, and the active hand, of God in the lives of believers today.

Help It Still Hurts
$23.99Add to cartWhen the relationship between the pastor and the congregation is good, the hope of the congregation is that the pastor never leaves from serving the church. The reality of the Scripture and life reveals that serving a church forever is not possible. Transition is an inevitable phenomenon.
Cynthia Hinson Graham remembers being sad as a child when her pastor did not return to church after his illness. She recalls, “The church never came together as a family to talk about what happened or how they felt.” Forty years later, the senior pastor at her church announced his retirement, but offered no guidance “for the church family to come together and process their reactions or responses to the impending transition.”
In this study, Hinson Graham examines how a congregation deals spiritually and emotionally with the loss of its long-time pastor, as well as how the exiting pastor should prepare for his or her departure. She focuses on five independent African-American churches, which are significant because they were led by a single senior pastor, rather than by a board of governance or denominational order.
During her research, Hinson Graham explored the answers to four core questions: What were the spiritual and emotional responses to the transition of a long-term pastor? How were congregants able to express these feelings? What mindsets were most common when faced with the transition? And what, if any, processes were followed to ease the transition for the church body?
The author acknowledges the logical concern with the reasons for the current pastor’s departure and the uncertainty concerning the incoming pastor, but these are before and after issues. The emotional and spiritual well-being of church members during the transition, however, is of concern here. In a clear and approachable voice, Hinson Graham cites extensive biblical precedents for managing such matters.

Stepping Into Your Destiny
$14.49Add to cartThere is a reason you are occupied by thoughts of your destiny, or purpose of existence. You have an innate need to seek out the plan God created for you. You were designed with a craving to reach your destiny. I did not know I had been chosen by God to fulfill a purpose in His plan.
The Bible is full of promises of protection, provision, and abundance. However, as we step into the life God has called us to lead we feel fear, uncertainty, and a lack of resources. Just about the time we get trucking along, something we depended on gets changed, and we are forced to make adjustments. During which times we experience fear, uncertainty, and even anger, our faith is challenged.
When a tree is left to tend to itself and the dilapidated branches droop to the ground and dry up, producing no fruit, only leaves, it is trying its hardest to restore itself. But, all its efforts are in vain, because all its energy is going to sustain the dilapidated branch with leaves. It does not possibly have the resources needed to also produce fruit. It’s taking everything it has just to survive. Do you know what that feels like? Are you pouring everything you’ve got into your life, and still just barely getting by?
Knowledge of your identity is crucial in fulfilling your destiny. It will be used to encourage you. As you travel this road to fulfilling your destiny, you will need the proper tools. All of the tools are crucial for traveling the path you were destined to walk.
When you step into your destiny, you will be exhilarated, ready to do what you are certain God has called you to do. At this point, you are experiencing the power Paul wrote about in his second letter to Timothy, “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline”
( 2 Tim 1:7 NIV). As the self-discipline lessons begin to shape you, you will feel the pain and confusion caused by the pruning. Yes! You have been pruned by the gardener (John 15); you are a branch with hardly any leaves or anything left on it; you feel naked, exposed and vulnerable. It is the winter of your transformation. It is in this time that you must allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. Relying on your feelings will not do. Every ounce of logic and analysis will tell you to turn around, pull out, stop, abort mission! But, it is not the truth. Only the Holy Spirit can guide you through this season. “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfu -

Primer In Christian Doctrine
$49.99Add to cartIn Ephesians the apostle Paul wrote: “God chose…to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things upon earth…” Ephesians 1:10 God chose everything which occurred in heaven before Jesus came and everything that occurred on earth before Jesus came to point forward to the coming of Jesus. God chose everything that occurred in heaven after Jesus came and everything that occurred on earth after Jesus came to point backward to Jesus. Everything God wants for man is summed up in the person of Jesus.
This book is a simple statement of the teachings in God’s word which lead us to Jesus as God’s Christ and our savior and defines God’s expectations of us because He loved us and gave us His only begotten Son. It is not a theological book. It is a simple statement, directly from the pages of God’s Word of God’s relationship to man and man’s relationship to God. It is a primer which will help lead people to Christ and help them grow into maturity in Him.

Keep It Professional

In 23 years as a beauty consultant, image enhancement technician, entrepreneur and owner of Eleth Beauty Palace, word of mouth has been my sole form of marketing so I have been able to build my business on the customer service principles in this book to create a satisfied, excited, enthusiastic, loyal client base.
These principles have been instrumental in my success attracting and maintaining clientele. I not only still have the handful of clients that started with me when I moved to Florida in 1994, but more than 80 percent of my current clients have been with me for at least 10 years, which speaks volumes about the experience they have each time they come to the Palace. Our goal is to add value to each person who enters the door; we have been successful in doing so year after year.
Additionally, I have used the enclosed communication, telephone etiquette, teamwork, cultural sensitivity, character qualities, conflict management and self-development principles to develop, train, empower and prepare young ladies in an internship program, helping them to develop these leadership qualities and a servant’s heart so that they can become successful in their respective fields. The self-esteem, self-confidence and personal growth that come from giving excellent service at all times and being the best you can will cause you to be respected.
