Gods Story In 66 Verses
$19.99Add to cartTreasure God’s Word in sixty-six easy verses. The Bible can seem like a big, intimidating book-mysterious, tedious, and often hard to understand.

What can be done to make it more accessible to twenty-first-century readers? Stan Guthrie’s answer: begin by zooming in on one key verse for each of the Bible’s sixty-six books. Seeking to bring clarity and simplicity to the study of God’s Word, Guthrie has written a concise, easy-to-digest collection of wisdom anchored in one verse for each book, from Genesis to Revelation-a verse that summarizes or lays the foundation for that book, placing it in context with the rest of the Scriptures. Read this book, and you’ll feel as if you’ve read the entire Bible-but you’ll also yearn to continue mining its depths and exploring its richness on your own.

Calvin On The Ropes
$19.49Add to cartAt the moment, there are two powerful trends developing within evangelicalism: * a pernicious postmodernism that demeans moral and intellectual certainty and presses for accommodation among competing “truths” – a postmodernism that’s now “institutionalizing” itself among many of the so-called “emerging churches;” and * a resurgent five point Calvinism that casts itself in opposition to postmodernism and, therefore, appeals to college Christians who are desperately looking for a spiritual and intellectual mooring that will safeguard their beliefs from being swept into a sea of relativism. In short, the one, postmodernism and the relativism it’s producing among American intellectuals, has led to the other, a resurgence of five point Calvinism. Calvinism is closely argued, tightly bound, and scrupulously logical. Its logic, however, is its undoing – because it argues Calvinist conclusions from Calvinist premises that don’t always line up with the Biblical text. The whole edifice rests on a flawed foundation that a careful exegesis of Romans reveals to anyone who is equipped with a little background in pre-modern thought. _________________________________________ Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum writes: This book is highly recommended to both Dispensational Calvinists and Covenantal Calvinists as well as to Arminians, and also to all of those who do not see themselves in any of these categories for an honest evaluation of what the Book of Romans really says about God’s program for salvation and God’s program for Israel.

Joy In Disguise
$21.95Add to cartHow can Paul rejoice when he’s got nothing to rejoice about? How can he talk about joy when he’s in prison? This book listens to him as he writes to his friends in Philippi, to attempt to understand the experience of joy that more than mere emotion. Paul highlights four reasons why joy fills his heart: because of the Gospel partnership he shares with his friends in Philippi; because of the unity that they experience in Christ; because of their confidence in Jesus; and because God has given them peace beyond understanding. These themes correspond with the four chapters of the letter, and form the organizing principle of this book.

Father For Our Father
$16.49Add to cartA Father for Our Father The Foundation for a Flourishing Family We are losing the battle for our children!! Family is no longer defined as father, mother, and child and this trend must stop!! “Dysfunction” is the buzzword describing our families. Rather than fight this trend, we are accepting it. The cultural shift from a God-fearing, family-oriented society has forced our children to fend for themselves. Our children are depending on us to do the right thing and, frankly, they deserve better than we are giving them. Consider the facts: * 63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes * 90% of all homeless and runaway children are from fatherless homes * 85% of all children that exhibit behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes These are just a few of the shocking statistics linked to the impact of a missing father in the lives of our children. In A Father for Our Father, we will discover how the “Lord’s Prayer” is more than an outline for prayer but also an outline for establishing a flourishing family. While this book is written with men in mind, women will discover the vital role they play in facilitating the changes necessary for men to become who they were created to be. And young men will find help defining their future roles as well. We will discuss the reference, the motivation, the role, and the calling that is unique to men, and clearly identify their responsibilities. Join me in discovering the power and influence that only you possess. We can restore our families! We can reverse this trend! Learn what it means to be A Father for Our Father!

Street Bible
$13.99Add to cartAn engaging new translation of the Bible into the language of the city. Rob Lacey reworks the metaphors, situations, and speech patterns of the Bible to create a real impact on the modern, urban reader. Taking the key texts of the Old and New Testament, Rob Lacey employs the MTV dialect of today’s urban city to create a new and original look at what may be over-familiar stories. Through its modern style, The Street Bible acts as an accessible and exciting introduction to the Bible for the uninitiated reader while giving a fresh perspective to the church community. A sample from Romans 7 reads: ‘So what’ll we say then? Are the Ten Written Rules wicked? No! We’d never have known what ‘wicked’ was, unless the rules had been published and circulated. Rule 6 says: “Don’t drool over what’s not yours,” but of course, my dark side takes its cue from this and what happens? I’m gagging for stuff that’s not mine and never should be.’ A translation that will bring the timeless message of the Bible into the 21st century with the impact it had in the 1st century.

Aramaic Gospels And Acts
$28.99Add to cartIt is astonishing in our day and age how difficult it has been to obtain the Gospels presented in the Aramaic Language-until now.

Psalms From The Pathway
$14.99Add to cartPsalms have been defined as “revelations of truth, not abstractly, but in the terms of human experience. The truth revealed is wrought into the emotions, desires, and sufferings of the people of God by the circumstances through which they pass.”* In Psalms from the Pathway, Lois Williams offers a precious gift and a warm invitation. The gift is a window into her heart’s journey. The invitation is to step forward in one’s own journey toward God’s gracefilled heart. Both comforting and challenging, her words probe deeply into the relationship with our extraordinary God. Her imaginative free verse reflects a beauty of thought and reveals an ability to educe sacred understandable truth from mundane daily observations. In deep, penetrating soul language, Psalms from the Pathway uncovers the hidden thoughts within us and points to the source of life, Jesus Christ. May you be blessed as you take time along this pathway. * C.I. Scofield, Oxford University Press, (C) 1909 P
