Preaching The Miracles Series 2 Cycle B (Revised)
$15.95This book offers an abundance of insightful information on each of the nine miracle stories in Cycle B of the Revised Common Lectionary – yet Brauninger intentionally avoids presenting a ready-made cloak of words for a morning sermon. Instead, she invites preachers and their audiences to discover hidden implications by exploring the gap between the “back then” and the “now.” Outlines of the action reveal the pivotal points in each story, and fictional interviews help readers get into the minds of the characters – thus connecting their human experiences with the daily struggles we encounter in faith and discipleship. Brauninger’s unique approach not only answers questions, it also generates them – which spurs the thinking process and allows the Word to come alive.
Five sections are devoted to each miracle story:
* Text – The entire scripture text is provided for easy access.
* What’s Happening? – A synopsis of points of action within each miracle story.
* Connecting Points–Conversations – Brauninger engages in imaginary exchanges with the main characters and an occasional bystander.
* Words – Significant terms are examined.
* Gospel Parallels – Similarities and differences with parallel passages are highlighted.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Living The Extraordinary Life
$19.99Dr. Charles Stanley explores the non-negotiable life principles that should be reflected in the life of every Christian. To many in the world, the Christian faith is a set of rules and regulations. But Jesus himself did not teach his followers dos and don’ts; he taught them foundational principles to live by. “These life principles,” Charles Stanley says, “are the simple truths that act as a compass for our souls. All Christians must live them in order to fulfill their purpose and experience intimate relationship with Christ.” Using examples from his own personal experiences, Biblical personalities, and case studies, Dr. Stanley demonstrates how these key life principles impact life in the 21st century-and how they make us, as Christians, different from those who live their lives according to preference rather than principles. Each chapter offers additional online material, as well as criteria for how you can measure your own personal growth on each principle.

Resurrection Code : Mary Magdalene And The Easter Enigma
$24.99The Resurrection Code reads like a well crafted mystery that carries the reader along with successive intrigues, hints and clues to a truly satisfying resolution that leaves the faithful both informed and inspired. With the adroitness of a skilled sleuth, Stibbe sorts out various puzzles in the ‘Easter enigma’ recorded in chapter 20 of the Fourth Gospel. In one of the most charming literary compositions in all the Bible, indeed all of literature, in The Resurrection Code we learn who the author is of the Fourth Gospel the identity and possible background of the mysterious figure (mentioned nowhere else in the New Testament) that John repeatedly refers to as ‘the disciple whom Jesus loved’ the likely timing of Jesus’ resurrection from the grave and encounter with Mary (contrary to the conventional Sunday dawn scenario) why John’s gospel (unlike the other gospels) points out details of Jesus’ grave clothes left behind in the tomb and what they signify how the two angels posted at each end of the slab where Jesus lay may supply an interpretive key that unlocks the deeper meaning of Jesus’ enigmatic encounter with Mary Magdalene why Jesus says to Mary, ‘Do not touch me!’ when later he invites the apostle Thomas to touch his hands and side. Mark Stibbe has a remarkable gift of teaching the Scriptures in a way that makes it real, relevant, applicable and life-changing. A gifted teacher, Mark’s ministry has impacted my life in a profound way.’ Ruth Graham – Director of Ruth Graham Ministries and daughter of Billy Graham

David’s great-great grandson was named Melea, which in Greek is Black and mentioned once. Also Jesus was taken into Egypt to be hidden from Herod who wanted to kill him. The Tribe of Judah would be taken out of Egypt by ships and sold as bondsmen and bondswomen and taken to Isles afar off they know not of, which happened to be America. This was the twelfth time slavery was done to a people, which is also a completion number.

Listen to these stories. You’ll understand the hearts behind the Compassion International organization.

Breakout

St Andrew’s Chorleywood has been at the forefront of church renewal for over three
decades. In the last five years, it has seen substantial growth as the congregation has moved from drawing people to one place, to a model in which well over a thousand believers have been sent out in mission-shaped communities of up to 50 members, meeting in school halls, community centres, coffee shops and other contexts.This daring move has resulted in the raising up of over a hundred new leaders, a massive release of spiritual gifts, great vision and creativity in outreach, and major growth through evangelism.

Bonds Of Freedom
$53.31This book proposes that Christian worship is a key source for any theology seeking to understand the covenant between God and human beings in the Christian tradition. Through a detailed examination of phenomenological, biblical, and theological
sources, the author seeks to write a theology in which the selfhood of God and human beings is seen as essentially “vowed” or “covenantal”. This claim is then explored through a detailed examination of eucharistic and baptismal practices within the worship life of the church. Here, then, is a theology that understands Christian worship as mutual acts of promise and commitment between God and human beings.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

You Can Lead Effectively
$21.86Mathew Philip has done a fine job of producing a much-needed study of Christian leadership derived from the context of his own ministry experience. It is a healthy balance between Biblical investigation on the subject on one hand and practical everyday concerns and issues on the other. The topics addressed are laid out quite independently from each other and this makes for easy reading. For this reason, lecturers in Bible schools will find it especially useful. Graham Houghton, Ph.D. Cambridge, New Zealand. Recent years saw the publication of scores of books on leadership, both in Christian circles and in the secular world of politics and business. But this book fills in some gaps and will be a valuable addition to them. It is written in a style and format that is very reader-friendly. The ideas are communicated well. This book could serve as a good textbook in classes on leadership in theological institutions. Saphir Athyal, Ph.D. World Vision International, Asia Pacific Region.

When You Find Yourself In The Belly Of A Whale
$20.61What is it like being in the belly of a whale? Well, it’s downright scary. And the surroundings are rather depressing. However, it is quiet. You have time to think-and pray. Singing sounds really good, much like being in the shower. You begin to explore the possibility of climbing out and taming the very thing that has consumed you. Beth Cantrell Whittington used humor, honesty, a battle with cancer, criminal justice career experiences, and down-to-earth devotional thoughts to focus on the big picture-looking at the surprising blows and storms of life through God’s eyes. Jesus was never diagnosed with a life threatening disease. He was never laid off because his company was downsizing. He never had family problems or experienced a mid-life crisis. But he was falsely accused, mocked, spat upon, beaten, and left to die on a cross. He can relate!

Part III: Theological ReflectionsConclusion
Bibliography
Index Of Authors
Index Of Scripture References
Index Of Ancient SourcesAdditional Info
From the patristic period until today, John’s Gospel has served as a major source for the church’s knowledge, doctrine and worship of the triune God. Among all New Testament documents the Fourth Gospel provides not only the most raw material for the doctrine of the Trinity, but also the most highly developed patterns of reflection on this material-particularly patterns that seek to account in some way for the distinct personhood and divinity of Father, Son and Spirit without compromising the unity of God.While there have been recent, fine studies on aspects of John’s doctrine of God, it is surprising that none summarizes and synthasizes what John has to say about God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In order to fill this gap, Kostenberger and Swain offer a fresh examination of John’s trinitarian vision in this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume.
Part One situates John’s trinitarian teaching within the context of Second Temple Jewish monotheism. Part Two examines the Gospel narrative in order to trace the characterization of God as Father, Son and Spirit, followed by a brief synthesis. Part Three deals more fully with major trinitarian themes in the Fourth Gospel, including its account of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and mission. A final chapter discusses the significance of John’s Gospel for the church’s doctrine of the Trinity, and a brief conclusion summarizes some practical implications.
Addressing key issues in biblical theology, the works comprising New Studies in Biblical Theology are creative attempts to help Christians better understand their Bibles. The NSBT series is edited by D. A. Carson, aiming to simultaneously instruct and to edify, to interact with current scholarship and to point the way ahead.

In A Monkey’s Orientation holiness is unpacked and looked at as more about orientating ourselves to the Fathers blessing, making it about where we are rather than what we do.

7 Things You Better Have Nailed Down Before All Hell Breaks Loose
$19.99Steven Covey wrote, “The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.” For men and women searching for truth amidst the noise and clutter, this principle could never be more crucial. And while the church is tossed about by the same uncertainty, Robert Wolgemuth’s provocative 7 Things You Better Have Nailed Down Before All Hell Breaks Loose puts a stake in the ground and says, “Here’s something you can count on, no matter what.” In life you don’t rise to the level of your circumstances; you fall to the level of your training. This strong exposition of the foundations of the Christian faith brings a calm, clarity, and confidence to train those who need something certain to claim. The seven things are: 1. God Is God: the Creator-Holy, Sovereign, and Merciful2. The Bible Is God’s Word 3. Mankind Is Eternally Lost and in Need of a Savior 4. Jesus Christ Died to Redeem Mankind 5. Grace and Faith Are Gifts 6. Belief and Works Are One 7. The Church Is God’s Idea

Beatitudes From The Back Side (Student/Study Guide)
$16.9911 Sessions
Additional Info
Using his method of approaching Bible passages from an unusual angle or a unique starting point, J. Ellsworth Kalas presents new insight into the beatitudes, Jesus’ blessings from the Sermon on the Mount.The book contains sessions and a study guide for personal use or for use in groups.
This book continues Kalas’ popular series of “Back Side” books.The beatitudes form the introduction to what is no doubt the best-known sermon ever preached. We call it the Sermon on the Mount (see Matthew 5-7), and of course it was preached by Jesus.
When we start examining the beatitudes we realize that in Jesus’ view, happiness is not something we get by pursuing it; indeed, almost the contrary. We are told that we will be happy-or blessed, if you prefer-in what appears to be the near antithesis of happiness. If we choose to live by the beatitudes, we make a declaration of dependence. We put ourselves into bondage to such things as poverty of spirit, purity of heart, and a readiness for persecution. This isn’t the sort of product they advertise on prime-time television; indeed, I’m not sure that it appears overly often in our prime-time worship services. That is because this is not a spiritual quick fix. It doesn’t come in a five-easy-lessons capsule. Instead, it is largely contrary to the way we live and to the way we think.
Before we go any further, however, let me say that over the past twenty centuries a very great many people have found in these beatitudes a depth of peace and joy beyond anything our common culture promotes and seeks. But it isn’t easy, and it isn’t obvious. There’s nothing easy or soft about this kind of dependence. Rather, it is an attitude that demands a huge store of courage. It’s the kind of dependence the trapeze artist displays when he or she lets go of the bar and with no safety net awaiting, flies off into space, trusting.
Welcome to the beatitudes. And may you be eternally happy, beginning now.

16 Messages For An Election Year
$12.95When election year rolls around, it’s almost as certain as death and taxes. Political candidates hit the campaign trail in droves, making endless appearances both in person and on the airwaves as they pitch themselves and their platforms to voters. Meanwhile, media pundits dissect the candidates’ carefully crafted strategies. But what if Jesus were running for office — how would he appeal to voters?
In this series of 16 messages based on texts from the four gospels and Acts, Lowell Messerschmidt takes readers on the campaign trail with Jesus — from the announcement of his candidacy to voting day. Messerschmidt examines Jesus’ platform — the guiding principles of his ministry — and notes that Jesus openly shared it throughout his campaign. Unlike any political party, however, Jesus never announced his campaign strategy until his last days on earth. When his strategy finally was revealed, it appeared that Jesus faced crushing defeat. But the initial vote tally was wrong — after his resurrection, Jesus was declared the winner by those who know him by faith.
Lowell Messerschmidt is a retired pastor and Wisconsin native who served congregations in the United Methodist Church. He is a graduate of North Central College, the University of Wisconsin, and Evangelical Theological Seminary.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

In many fatal accidents, where they said she would not walk again. But in the mist of living in drug infested areas, where someone was shot and killed almost daily. Teresa always found churches to go to, to seek help, and peace. There began her experiences of deep hurt and pains from the church. She was an unwed teenager pregnant, with nowhere or no one to turn to. Her pastor at that time, tried to abuse her, and when she refused, the pastor put her before the congregation, and made a mockery of her. He told her that God would not bless her because she was not married, many other horrible things he could think of to get her away from the church. Teresa left that church body, never to return. She traveled to many churches over the course of her life, and began to notice others being torn apart, by pastors, leaders, and other members of the church. Teresa vowed to God, after many personal church hurts and pains of her own, that she would help people in the body of Christ, to heal from the hurts and pains within the churches. God gave Teresa basic truths to help the hurting and the lost to follow God no matter what the situation.

Reviving Evangelical Ethics
$32.501. Classic Models Of Morality: Immanuel Kant On Duty, John Stuart Mill On Utility, And Aristotle On Virtue
2. Trust And Obey? Another Way For Scripture And Ethics
3. We’ve A Story To Tell: Which One And Why?
4. Sweet Hour Of Prayer: Save Me From The World’s Cares
5. Reviving Evangelical Ethics: Moral Conscience, Community, And CompetencyAdditional Info
The classic theories of Aristotle, Kant, and Mill have influenced Christian thought in morality and ethics for centuries. But they can go only so far, writes ethicist Wyndy Corbin Reuschling in Reviving Evangelical Ethics: The Promises and Pitfalls of Classic Models of Morality. In this readable book she introduces and overviews the three classic philosophical schools of ethics: virtue, deontology, and teleology.
While the philosophers’ approaches to virtue, duty, and utility have been used widely in forming ethical and moral practices, and are helpful for understanding various dimensions of ethics, Corbin Reuschling argues that they also have limitations from a theological perspective. These theories cannot account for the richness of Christian morality, which involves Scripture, the church, and the development of conscience for increasing skills in moral reflection and ethical deliberation. The author shows how evangelicals wittingly or unwittingly fall into one or another of the classic models without adequate biblical and theological reflection, probes deeply to deconstruct each philosophical approach, and reconstructs a broader, biblically based framework for personal and group ethics. This clear and accessible introductory ethics text will serve college and seminary students well.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

What Is Economic Justice
$39.99This book argues that a biblically-rooted account of justice in economic life has three great strengths as opposed to the confusing disarray of views evident in the secular world. First, it is harmonious: the various strands of a scriptural perspective on economic justice are clearly woven together, and they find their unity in the person of the God. Secondly, it is substantial: able to engage thoroughly and critically with leading secular perspectives. Thirdly, it is contemporary: applying in powerful and relevant ways to current economic issues in our globalized world. This book indicates how a biblical understanding of production and exchange applies to contemporary topics such as the relationships between borrowers and lenders, and the use of monopoly power.

Vulnerable Communion : A Theology Of Disability And Hospitality
$31.25Introduction
1. Theology And Disability – Perils And Promises
2. Communal Bondaries: Dwelling Together And The Cult Of Normalcy
3. Able Bodies? The Illusion Of Control And Denial Of Vulnerability
4. Recovering Disability: Love And The Strange Power Of Weakness
5. Love Divine: God, Creation, And Vulnerability
6. Worthy Of Love? Humanity, Disability, And Redemption In Christ
7. Being Together: Love, Church, And HospitalityAdditional Info
As parents of an autistic son, Thomas Reynolds and his wife know what it’s like to be misunderstood by a church community. In Vulnerable Communion, Reynolds draws upon that personal experience and a diverse body of literature to empower churches and individuals to foster deeper hospitality toward persons with disabilities.Reynolds shows that the Christian story is one of strength coming from weakness, of wholeness emerging from brokenness, and of power in vulnerability. Wholeness, he argues, comes not from self-sufficiency, but from the “genuinely inclusive communion” that results from sharing our humanity–including our lack of ability–with one another. Then, and only then, will we truly live in hospitality with one another and with people with disabilities.
Reynolds offers valuable biblical, theological, and pastoral tools to understand and welcome those with disabilities. The book will be useful to academics, students, and pastors, as well as anyone touched by disability in some way. Readers will find penetrating examinations of the difficult questions of why God allows disability and what the church can learn from people with disabilities.

Young Restless Reformed
$17.99From places like John Piper’s den, Al Mohler’s office, and Jonathan Edwards’s college, Christianity Today journalist Collin Hansen investigates what makes today’s young Calvinists tick. Church-growth strategies and charismatic worship have fueled the bulk of evangelical growth in America for decades. While baby boomers have flocked to churches that did not look or sound like church, it seems these churches do not so broadly capture the passions of today’s twenty-something evangelicals. In fact, a desire for transcendence and tradition among young evangelicals has contributed to a Reformed resurgence. For nearly two years, Christianity Today journalist Collin Hansen visited the chief schools, churches, and conferences of this growing movement. He sought to describe its members and ask its leading pastors and theologians about the causes and implications of the Calvinist resurgence. The result, Young, Restless, Reformed, shows common threads in their diverse testimonies and suggests what tomorrow’s church might look like when these young evangelicals become pastors or professors. “Collin Hansen invites us on a voyage of discovery, learning how our restless youth are discovering anew the great doctrines of the Christian faith. Weary of churches that seek to entertain rather than teach, longing after the true meat of the Word, these young people are pursuing doctrine. Discover how God is moving among the young, the restless, and the Reformed.” Tim Challies, author, The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment; blogger at Challies.com “Young, Restless, Reformed is the product of some outstanding research. This book will help the reader gain valuable insight into the growing Reformed movement in America.” Jerry Bridges, author of The Pursuit of Holiness “Collin Hansen has uncovered a fresh movement of young Christians for whom doctrine fuels evangelism, kindles passion, and transforms lives. Read it and rejoice.” David Neff, editor-in-chief, Christianity Today media group “A number of strategic ministries have been quietly upholding the doctrines of grace, planting churches, seeing people converted, teaching the whole counsel of God. It is time for quiet gratitude to God and earnest intercessory prayer that what has begun well will flourish beyond all human expectation.” D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School “This lively account is must reading for ministry leaders working with young adults. A wake-up call to ba

God Of Second Chances
$20.00There is much in our culture that keeps us from staying on a path of religious faith and enlightenment: Creature comforts entice us away from the rigors of a materially simple and charitable life. Debates over pressing issues have lost whatever civil tone they once had. Our nation is simultaneously awash with multimillionaires and homeless children. Now, in particular, minister and psychotherapist Erik Kolbell believes we need a second chance. In this hopeful book, this insightful writer and caregiver looks back through Scripture and finds that it reveals a God of second chances. The Bible is rich with words like re-conciliation, re-demption, re-vival, and re-surrection, and Kolbell eloquently explores one re word in every chapter, each pointing to a well-recognized biblical theme that speaks in its own way to how, when our spirits are weary, God gives us a second chance to deepen our lives of faith. Drawing from a wealth of biblical and contemporary illustrations, Kolbell offers comforting guidance to all spiritual seekers who yearn to find their way back to the sufficiency of God s love and gain the wisdom to know what to respond in return. Includes questions for discussion or reflection.

Who Switched The Price Tags
$18.99A Tony Campolo Classic! Things that ought to be treated as precious-like family, friends and faith-are inconsequential, and things like a new BMW, membership in the country club and the climb up the corporate ladder are all too often considered of great importance. I find people working and slaving and spending their money and their time on things that really don’t matter and ignoring the things that do. How did we get so far off-base?
