Absolutely Small : How Quantum Theory Explains Our Everyday World
$27.95Add to cartPhysics is a complex, even daunting topic, but it is also deeply satisfying-even thrilling. And liberated from its mathematical underpinnings, physics suddenly becomes accessible to anyone with the curiosity and imagination to explore its beauty. Science without math? It’s not that unusual. For example, we can understand the concept of gravity without solving a single equation. So for all those who may have pondered what makes blueberries blue and strawberries red; for those who have wondered if sound really travels in waves; and why light behaves so differently from any other phenomenon in the universe, it’s all a matter of quantum physics. Absolutely Small presents (and demystifies) the world of quantum science like no book before. It explores scientific concepts-from particles of light, to probability, to states of matter, to what makes greenhouse gases bad-in considerable depth, but using examples from the everyday world. Challenging without being intimidating, accessible but not condescending, Absolutely Small develops the reader’s intuition for the very nature of things at their most basic and intriguing levels.

Church Must Die
$19.99Add to cartFor My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, And hewn themselves cisterns-broken cisterns that can hold no water.
Jeremiah 2:13The modern church, to its very core, is wrong. It is not what it was supposed to be.
Today church is a “thing”…it’s an organization, a building, an institution…something never intended by Christ.
In the early church the power of the Holy Spirit operated in abundance and the world was changed. Over the 2000 years since, we have traded the glory of God for an institution, traded His power for our own, and traded His church for a sad counterfeit.
It’s time to wake up and see ourselves for what we’ve become. This is not a revolution, not even a revival. This is a breaking. This is death to all we have become, that we might return to what is real.

There Will Always Be A Tree
$15.49Add to cartTimes have changed. America has been rural for years, but now is largely urban. In spite of this shifting, it is still surprising to discover how many people relate to their “grandparents farm”. “I remember the farm” is usually stated with a sound of fondness.
It is from that background of memories that the author has written this book on values. You can’t avoid embracing some system of values. Even if you declare, “I choose to reject all values”, you choose a value of your own freedom to reject. It is unavoidable. From the Garden of Eden and a tree of choice, to the Hill of Golgotha and the Old Rugged Tree (Cross), to the complexities of today, the values you choose mark your path of life.
I believe the values lived by our fathers and mothers, many of them learned from the farm and the church, passed down to following generations, made America strong and a wonderful place to live. I encourage you to read this book and to ask the Lord for wisdom to apply these enduring truths for practical living in our age. They will guide our paths and help make us strong again. Farmstrong.

Ministry In The Marketplace
$12.49Add to cartBecome a minister in the marketplace!
Ministry in the Marketplace: Joining Your Personal Faith and Professional Life shows how to bridge the divide between calling and career. If you ever wondered whether or not God could work wonders in your workplace, then this is the book for you. Quit leaving the ministry to professional ministers and start reaching people in your sphere of influence!
We were made to represent God and touch people’s lives and when we don’t do what we were created to do we are left feeling empty and dissatisfied. Yet this book is more than just about purpose, but also a practical discussion about how to really walk with God as a minister in the marketplace.
Those that are not called to the full-time ministry still have a real calling to reach out to others on God’s behalf because we were created to touch the world with the love of God. That does not mean we have to be in a pulpit ministry, but that our daily lives are our pulpit, and the people around us our congregation.
Inside this revolutionary book, author Michael Kocurek reveals:
* It is God’s will for us to minister to people around us even while we are on the job.
* A godly definition of success doesn’t exalt work at the expense of God’s purposes.
* We have placed too much of the work of ministry on the pastor of the local church. -

God Is Busy Fixing Things
$15.99Add to cartGod Is Busy Fixing Things
How do I know this? I’ve been one of his co-workers for more than fifty years. I’ve been one with Him in building His church. I’ve been one with Him in making disciples. I’ve been one with Him in building homes. I’ve been one with Him in uniting brothers and sisters in Christ. I’ve been one with Him in restoring sinning brothers, and rebuilding shattered relationships.
Summing everything together, I have been and still am one with Him fixing that which got broke in Genesis three. Namely, His crowning creation; (mankind, you and me)
Only He can fix us. He fixes us one at a time. He always does His fixing in a vital way, through His Living Word by His Spirit.
As one of His co-workers my part is to prayerfully use His tools (His Word, His Cross, His Gifts) in total dependence upon His Spirit to fix people on the inside. When He does and continues to do His work of fixing (regenerating and sanctifying) broken people, I get my reward in seeing transformed lives and homes like you will read about in this book.
As He imparts life to the dead and they continue to grow:
The proud become humble.
The covetous become generous.
The angry become meek.
The bitter become sweet.
The divided become united.
The Self-centered become God-centered. -

Introduction
Outline Of Philippians
Commentary
BibliographyAdditional Info
Nothing cripples a church’s effectiveness like internal strife. In Philippi, Paul addressed a congregation whose private struggles were compounded by opposition and suffering from without. Paul’s strategy was to write them a letter of friendship and moral exhortation, reminding them of their “partnership in the gospel,” their mutual suffering for the cause of Christ, and their need to “stand firm in one spirit.” His approach and counsel can serve us well today. In this warm study of Philippians by Gordon Fee, you will discover what this letter meant for its original hearers as well as what it means to us today. -
God In Translation
$43.99Add to cartGod in Translation offers a substantial, extraordinarily broad survey of ancient attitudes toward deities, from the Late Bronze Age through ancient Israel and into the New Testament.
Looking closely at relevant biblical texts and at their cultural contexts, Mark S. Smith demonstrates that the biblical attitude toward deities of other cultures is not uniformly negative, as is commonly supposed. He traces the historical development of Israel’s “one-god worldview,” linking it to the rise of the surrounding Mesopotamian empires. Smith’s study also produces evidence undermining a common modern assumption among historians of religion – that polytheism is tolerant while monotheism is prone to intolerance and violence.

In each case, Smith demonstrates how the wisdom of pentecostal spirituality makes unique contributions to current conversations in Christian philosophy.

Theologys Strange Return
$35.00Add to cartFor two centuries and more our culture has been secular, and no religious doctrine now plays a constitutive part in any established branch of knowledge. Yet if God is dead, he wont lie down, and reminders of the old faith still pervade our language, the built environment, our art and our literature. Most important, themes of the old theology are currently returning to us in new and strange guises. Thus God, the strict Judge who searches our hearts and demands inner integrity, returns in the critical thinking which makes everyone trained it his own hardest taskmaster. Again, the biblical idea that the world is made by the utterance of language returns in modern poetry and linguistic philosophy.aaBy assembling such reminders, Don Cupitt shows that a surprising amount of traditional Christian belief u including a new Grand Narrative, and a non-metaphysical theology u is currently returning to us in secular form.

Diary Of A Kidnapped Columbian Governor
$17.95Add to cartThe dramatic rescue and release of Colombia hostage Ingrid Betancourt on July 2, 2008, riveted the world’s attention. Another kidnapping victim that year was the governor of Antioquia, Guillermo Gaviria Correa. Little known is his embrace of nonviolence as a political strategy that led to his capture by the FARC and his death during a failed rescue attempt May 5, 2003. The book is being published on the seventh anniversary of his death.
Is a non-killing society possible? Here is the story of how Governor Guillermo Gaviria of the state of Antioquia, in Colombia, paid with his life for taking this question seriously. Knowing that kidnapping and death were real possibilities, Gaviria, inspired by the nonviolent principles of Jesus, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, believed they could be applied in one of the most violent places on earth. Thus he organized a peaceful march in solidarity with coffee growers in Caicedo. The five-day march ended with his capture by the FARC.
Held for over a year in the jungles of the Colombian countryside, the governor kept a diary and wrote letters to his wife, family, and colleagues. This book is a compilation of his diary and letters, translated from the original Spanish into English. The editor had the privilege to meet the governor’s widow, Colombian Senator Yolanda Pinto de Gaviria in 2007. Her heartfelt desire was to bring her husband’s story to a broader English readership. A translation and editing team from Akron (Pa.) Mennonite Church accepted the challenge and partnered with the Center for Global Nonkilling to bring this amazing story to light.

Compromised worship has serious roots-and serious consequences. The Israelites can vouch for that. Through an effort to have the best of both worlds, they spent centuries attempting to worship both Yahweh and the fertility god, Baal. With this misguided concept of the true God and true worship, the Israelites’ lives became immersed in a conspiracy to maintain a love of God and a love of everyday gods.
In The Baal Conspiracy, author Al Truesdale exposes the truth behind what this Baal conspiracy meant for the Israelites: that God, in fact, cannot be denied or shared in any form of worship. With solid biblical scholarship, Truesdale employs historical fiction to explain and explore how Christians can confront and defeat the Baal conspiracy in the Church and in daily living. -

Bible Natural Theology And Natural Law
$39.95Add to cartDr. Robert Morey’s study of natural law and natural theology raises important questions that every Bible-believer will want answered. His careful study and explanation of various Bible passages will yield a useful orientation to the classic arguments furnished us by the Reformers and their faithful heirs.
Dr. Nelson Kloosterman
The present volume presents a devastating critique of natural theology and natural law. Its argument is solidly biblical, and its accumulation of biblical data is overwhelming. I hope that God prospers it so that many will read it and take heed.
Dr. John Frame
A.W. Tozer said, “the most important thing about any person is what comes into their mind when they think of the word God.” If you digest Dr. Morey’s book, you will think of ‘God’ as the glorious One depicted in Holy Scripture.”
John G. Reisinger,
I appreciate Dr. Morey’s emphasis on making the Bible alone the theoretical basis for science and the arts. All throughout the book he consistently points to the Scriptures as the basis for sustaining everything else.
Dr. Simon Kistemaker
