Girl Meets Change (Reprinted)

Kristen Strong knows about change–especially the kind you didn’t choose or expect. What she’s fought hard to learn over the years is that change is not something to be feared but something to be received as a blessing from a God who, more often than not, works through change, not in spite of it. Strong has learned to see change not as a grievance but as a grace.
In this hope-filled book, she shows women how when we follow God’s will, we receive blessings of contentment, purpose, and renewed strength. She encourages women to see change not as the end of their story but as the scenery for this part of life’s journey. And she offers practical advice for coping with change in every part of life. Anyone who has struggled to adjust to life’s transitions will welcome this warm and personal perspective.

Hello Beauty Full

Women struggle under the ongoing weight of “not-enough-ness.”
Not attractive enough. Not smart enough. Not fit enough. Not creative enough. Not good enough. Not sexy enough. Not strong enough. Not whole enough. Not womanly enough. And therefore, not beautiful. We are broken and ashamed to be so.In our eyes, brokenness makes us unlovable and unusable. But in his Word, God is clear that he sees us the way we already are in Christ: deeply loved and abundantly influential. Yet we hang back, believing instead the toxic not-enough labels.
Hello, Beauty Full explodes the shame-based mythology of our “not-enough-ness.”
Instead of believing the hiss of the enemy, women are encouraged to see their beauty the way God does.
Chapters include:
*Voice Lessons: Beauty in Your Unique Personality
*Valuable Vessels: Beauty in Your Physical Body
*A Womb of Your Own: Beauty in Your Creative Purpose
*Scar Stories: Beauty in Your Painful Story
*Have Your Sway: Beauty in Your Influential LegacyChallenged to not settle for emptiness when Jesus came to give life to the full, women will find the freedom they need to accept their identities when they not only hear but embrace God’s heavenly message: “Hello, Beauty Full!”

Fervent : A Womans Battle Plan For Serious Specific And Strategic Prayer
$17.99Add to cartYou have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It’s specific. Personalized. Targeted. So this book is your chance to strike back. With prayer. With a weapon that really works. Each chapter will guide you in crafting prayer strategies that hit the enemy where it hurts, letting him know you’re on to him and that you won’t back down. Because with every new strategy you build, you’re turning the fiercest battles of life into precise strikes against him and his handiwork, each one infused with the power of God’s Spirit. “New York Times” bestselling author Priscilla Shirer, widely known for her international speaking, teaching, and writing ministries, brings her new role from the 2015 film “War Room” into the real lives of today’s women, addressing the topics that affect them most: renewing their “passion,” refocusing their “identity,” negotiating “family” strife, dealing with relentless “regrets,” navigating impossible “schedules,” succeeding against “temptation,” weathering their worst “fears,” uprooting “bitterness,” and more. Each chapter exposes the enemy’s cruel, crafty intentions in all kinds of these areas, then equips and encourages you to write out your own personalized prayer strategies on tear-out sheets you can post and pray over yourself and your loved ones on a regular basis. “Fervent” is a hands-on, knees-down, don’t-give-up action guide to practical, purposeful praying.

Joseph Leader Guide (Teacher’s Guide)
$15.99Add to cartAll of us know what it’s like to be hurt or betrayed. Often it’s a small breach such as being spoken to rudely or overlooked in a time of need. Other times we experience lies, gossip, or harsh words that cut us to the core. Some of us have endured unspeakable pain through abuse, adultery, or abandonment. God knows the pain we cause each other and longs to help us learn to practice forgiveness. Nowhere do we see forgiveness played out more fully in Scripture than in the biblical story of Joseph.

As we study his dreams, his betrayers, his dysfunctional family, his struggle to forgive, and his journey toward reconciliation, we’ll find truths that echo into our own personal situations as well as practical help for answering common questions, such as: How do I stop dwelling on the hurt? Is forgiving someone excusing what happened? When will I stop having to re-forgive? Is there a difference between forgiveness and reconciliation? How can I forgive and still set boundaries? Is it ever okay not to forgive? Whether or not you are working through a hurtful situation right now, you can learn from Joseph how to release your past and present hurts to God and allow Him to do a supernatural work of forgiveness in your life. God wants to use the very things intended to hurt you as a source of blessing in your life and the lives of others.

Breaking Up With Perfect
$15.99Add to cartAn inspiring and thought-provoking guide to help you abandon the pursuit of perfection and become comfortable and more confident in your own skin.
Every woman has felt the pressure to be perfect. Whether you’re a “good girl” who constantly strives to put on a perfect front or the “never good enough girl” who finally decides that if she can’t be perfect, she might as well be good at being bad, the impossible quest for perfection inevitably results in stress that impacts everything you do.
Because what you believe determines how you think and feel, Carroll identifies common misunderstandings about others, ourselves, and God and counters these misconceptions with affirming biblical truths that redefine the source of your worth and help you gain confidence and new ways to think about yourself. In doing so, she helps you rework your thought patterns so that misconceptions like “God expects me to live up to His standards perfectly” can be replaced with truths like “God understands our imperfections and loves us unconditionally.”
In this relatable book, Amy shares biblical teachings, personal anecdotes, and transformation exercises that are easy to apply to your daily life. Breaking Up with Perfection will give you the tools you need to break the perpetual cycle of stress that chasing perfection induces, so you can live a life filled with happiness, success, and spiritual fulfillment.

Finding His Footprints In The Sand
$39.99Add to cartA defining moment. Perhaps you’ve had one, an experience that explains who you are today.
God had a defining moment. His Son died on the cross for our sins, changing history and his relationship with mankind. Still, his forgiveness, love and sacrifice are concepts unfamiliar to much of the world. Ignorant of such grace, society bombards us with the daily temptation to measure up or perform. When we fail to achieve the desired results, we struggle to feel God’s grace. This is especially true when life hits us hard through tragedy, unfortunate events and prolonged suffering—we question; we wonder; we misunderstand his amazing grace. This can cause us to battle shame, self-doubt and bitterness.
When dark times come, are you able to find strength in God’s grace?
Do you defeat insecurity, lack of self-worth and guilt through your view of grace?
Have you seen your Lord’s footprints in the sand when you look back at the most difficult times in your life?
Do your struggles and disappointments bring you to a deeper understanding of his grace?
In “Footprints in the Sand: God’s Grace to Women in an Ungracious World”, Erica Kim starts with a defining moment in her personal life—the tragic death of her mother—to describe her journey to rediscover God’s grace.
Through poignant true-life stories and teachings about women in the Bible, you will be led from the book of Genesis to the cross to see without a doubt how God has carried each one of us in his arms through every dark and hopeless moment to help you to experience fulfillment and spiritual growth.

Life After Breath
$32.99Add to cartAfter her husband takes his last breath, and after she tries to catch hers…
“During those last few months, the pressure was something of another world and as earthly life wept, the bleeding of our hearts began to mingle with eternity and hovered in a strange vapor. There was no song to be heard; just the rhythm of waiting; and life held its breath.” “The truth of what is ahead for you must be found in God’s Word. You will see there that you are meant to be one of His greatest allies in these times of faint hearts and tribulation. As a widow, you have been called for a great and unique purpose.” The word “widow” carries with it the meaning of being severed; torn apart from what she was once one with. In Hebrew, it means “an empty house.” To be a widow also means to be prepared “apart” but God’s tender heart never meant for her to be isolated and crippled. Widows are prepared apart for a “set-apart” calling. Life After Breath is a warm and honest companion and friend in the midst of a widow’s darkness and seclusion, and sets in place the foundation for her future with insight into a sacred Biblical revelation that will take your breath away. Life After Breath is a faithful friend and companion to a widow’s grief that will enable her to look into grief and heal when others want to look away. It gives resolve without insisting on an answer and prepares a widow to champion her own Biblical cause in a way that no other book or resource on the market offers. There are countless millions of widows crippled without a voice; Life After Breath breathes life back into a grieving woman and prepares her apart for a set-apart calling.

Planned Bullyhood : The Truth Behind The Headlines About The Planned Parent
$19.99Add to cartThe full, up-close story of the battle between Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Planned Parenthood from the woman at the center of the explosive media firestorm of early 2012, Karen Handel, former SVP of Public Policy at Komen.
In 2011, Susan G. Komen for the Cure was growing weary of the “pink” being tarnished by its health grants to Planned Parenthood (PPH), whose many controversies were fueling backlash against Komen. They wanted to remove themselves from the pro-life/abortion debate and made what they thought was a rational, reasonable decision: seek neutral ground in the culture war by severing ties with Planned Parenthood-and in turn, eliminate a major headache while opening a new, robust fund-raising channel.
Karen Handel, the organization’s Senior Vice President of Public Policy, was tasked with identifying options to disengage. In November, the Komen management and board decided to move forward. Komen believed that they and PPH had made a “gentle ladies” pact, agreeing to part ways amicably and acknowledging that a media firestorm was in no one’s best interest. Yet, six weeks later, PPH unleashed a media campaign so viral and so seamlessly executed that it must have been in the works for some time. PPH attacked Komen against the backdrop of the Obama administration’s clash with the Catholic Church over contraception. After just three days, following hysterical cries that “Komen was abandoning women,” Komen capitulated and reversed course. Handel-a lifelong pro-life Republican who was raised Catholic-was immediately made the target. She resigned within days of Komen’s reversal. Liberals called her a right-wing Trojan horse. The pro-life community hailed her as a hero. She insists she is neither.
Why did Planned Parenthood attack? Was Komen simply a pawn in something bigger? In this book, Karen Handel finally speaks.

Best Yes : Making Wise Decisions In The Midst Of Endless Demands
$19.99Add to cartLearn to find and play the role God wants most for you to play, not the ones you feel pressured into playing for the sake of others or even our sense of accomplishment and worth.
Most of us spend a lot of our lives figuring out when to say yes and when to say no. How to manage our time, reduce stress, do our best for our families, find a little space for “me.” But we don’t find space for our souls until we learn to step past the yes and no of daily decisions and seek a third option: the best yes. The best yes is the choice that shapes all our other choices. (And our choices determine the direction of our lives.) It’s what allows us to play our necessary parts in God’s plan, to spend our energy and focus our passion on the assignments that really are ours. It allows us to be there for the moments we shouldn’t miss, pursue the calling our souls pulse to fulfill, give the love we were born to offer. How do we learn to say that best yes? It requires honesty. Imagination. Attention. Trust. Humility. Practice-lots of practice. And wisdom. The best yes is really all about wisdom-learning to make truly wise decisons. And that’s the heart of this book. “I want us to become powerfully effective decision makers,” writes Lysa Terkeurst. “Because then we will live powerfully effective lives. And spend our souls doing powerfully effective work to the glory of God.” With her signature mix of transparency, Scripture-laced insight, and “been there” humor, she suggests usable strategies for choosing wisely and encourages us all to shout and whisper our own best yes to life, day by decision-making day.

Teach Us To Want
$18.99Add to cartThe story of each person is a story of want–desires unmet, hopes dashed, passions pursued and ambitions fulfilled. And yet why we want–and how we can want well– often eludes us. Our individual stories are set against a greater story: a good God creates us and all that is seen and unseen not out of need but according to his good pleasure. That good God enters our reality, standing in the midst of all our hopes and fears, all our sacred longings and secret sins, and redeems us down to our soul for his good pleasure. That same good God calls us into a new reality in which we seek first his kingdom and righteousness, and we discover our disordered desires burned away while our truest longings are happily fulfilled. “Lord, teach us to pray,” we overhear his followers ask. And if we listen closely, we hear our own voices alongside theirs: Lord, teach us to want. Jen Pollock Michel guides us on a journey of understanding who we are when we want, and reintroduces us to a God who would give us the desires of our hearts.

Sarahs Choice : Only One Thing Stands In The Way Of Sarah’s Success
$15.99Add to cartOnly one thing stands in the way of Sarah’s success . . . her unborn baby.
Sarah Collins is about to receive a promotion that will give her everything she’s ever wanted: a huge pay increase, a new car, a fabulous apartment, and first-class travel.
But then she discovers she’s pregnant. And while she thinks she loves her boyfriend, Matt, she isn’t sure he’s mature enough to be a responsible father. And the job she’s pursuing is open only because the previous employee is out on maternity leave. She’d never be able to handle the travel as a single mom.
Torn between advice from her coworkers, the adamant insistence of her mother and sister that she keep the baby, her insecurity about her relationship with Matt, and the void where her father should be, Sarah has no idea how to make this decision.
A Christmas card from a mysterious old woman is the catalyst for three visions of her future-and may just be the miracle she needs. But can she trust the visions? Are they the yearnings of a conflicted heart? Or are they true visions from the God she thought had turned his back on her?
For every woman who has made painful decisions, Sarah’s Choice offers comfort, wisdom, and hope.

My Name Is Woman
$12.49Add to cart“…the woman was chosen by Satan as his perfect target
not for being the weak sex between the two, but because
she carried within her the maximum expression of the
creative power of God in His creatures.”
In her book “My name is Woman”, Laura Fernandez approaches a theme as old as the history of the world and updates it with a solid argument; God created the woman with a purpose, where in equality with man and in unity with him, could offer a dignified service to the family, society and the Creator.In her book, the author maintains the difficult balance – so scarce in this subject – between firmness to defend the woman’s value and the respect to man as husband and partner in the same venture.
At this phase in history, when the female’s proportion in the church has grown and it becomes necessary a broader service in God’s cause, the role of today’s Christian woman confronts the challenge, and at the same time the opportunity, to develop her gifts simultaneously with men, overlooking the useless and miserable prejudice that have delayed the advances of the divine plan.

6 Creative Theological Reflection And Activism: Working To End Gendercide
BibliographyAdditional Info
Violence against women and girls is a human rights epidemic that affects millions of lives around the world. While many Christians are addressing this crisis through education, advocacy and philanthropic support, there has been a reluctance to name gendercide as a theological and confessional issue, a matter that strikes at the very essence of the Christian faith. In The Cross and Gendercide, Elizabeth Gerhardt draws on Luther’s “theology of the cross” to provide a theological basis for naming and responding to the grave sin of global gendercide. She lifts up the work and witness of Dietrich Bonhoeffer as an especially powerful resource for mobilizing the church today toward political action and social engagement. From the perspective of Christ’s cross, the church must raise a prophetic voice against systemic violence and speak up for the myriad women and girls who are invisible and voiceless in the world today. -

$19.99Add to cartBestselling author Jill Kelly emboldens readers to embrace all of life’s experiences as the precious gifts of a loving and transforming God.
Our lives are made up of moments. Some we hope to remember forever and some we long to forget. But it’s the tapestry of these moments that come together to write the story God is telling through each of our lives.

Leaving Ordinary : Encounter God Through Extraordinary Prayer
$19.99Add to cartGod desires an intimate relationship with each of us. But, we wonder, how can a person have such a relationship with a holy God? It is one thing to be in awe of Him, but quite another to be intimate with Him.
In Leaving Ordinary, Donna Gaines delves into this issue by exploring the notion of extraordinary prayer. How does Scripture define “intimacy” as it relates to our relationship with God? God gave the Israelites the tabernacle, a temporary and portable dwelling for His glory, and taught them how to approach and worship Him before He led them to their reward-the promised land. Using the tabernacle and its articles (altar, lampstands, etc.) as a guide, Donna teaches readers how to interact with God in that secret place of true intimacy that leads to worship.
Your ordinary daily practice of prayer can become an extraordinary encounter with the living God. Leaving Ordinary is essential reading for women who desire a more intimate relationship with God. Features include:Tools for gaining a stronger, more intimate relationship with GodAn exploration of the tabernacle as it relates to prayer today The definition of “intimacy” as it relates to God.

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.

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.

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)

YOU Plan : A Christian Womans Guide For A Happy Healthy Life After Divorce
$19.99Add to cartYou never thought divorce would happen to you. But it did. You may feel traumatized, relieved, hopeful, afraid, or all of the above. What choices will help you heal? How can you minimize the trauma for your kids? When is too soon to date…and what about sex? How can you learn from your mistakes instead of repeating them? And where is God in all of this?
Michelle and Connie have been where you are. They’re Christian women who are a little ahead of you on the journey. Michelle was divorced seven years and now is happily remarried. Connie is ten years into the journey and at peace with being single. They’ve each made good choices and their fair share of mistakes. In this book they rally their collective experience to help you navigate some of the twists and turns of the post-divorce journey, avoid pitfalls, and emerge stronger and more confident.
This is not one of those authoritative, “do as we say” tomes.

Most of all, it’s a powerful reassurance that no matter what has happened or what may happen next, God still has good plans for you. You will live and laugh and love again. This book can help you do it.

Woman Standing In The Midst
$15.49Add to cartWith the dawn of each new day comes the search for renewed strength as countless women choose to stand in the midst. Wrestling with a flood of thoughts and emotions are all part of their daily routine in their endeavor to overcome and prevail. Like Pharaoh’s daughter, they may not know the potential or purpose of the one for whom they must stand. Yet through courage and a strange sense of purpose they embrace whatever risks comes with their choice. Our world today is filled with the results and blessings of the fruits of their labor, which often costs them all. The many lives, families, marriages, homes and ministries that continue to thrive around us can be attributed to their sacrifice and selfless struggle. Many stood because they were left to, others stand because they have to but there are those whom the Lord have called to stand as examples and a source of strength to others in the midst. Their heroism must be complemented with a change of attitude and perception, resulting in a cultural transformation in the Body of Christ the Church. For ” There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus”.

Kingdom Woman Group Video Experience Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)

Restless : Because You Were Made For More
$19.99Add to cartA practical plan to identify the threads of your life and how to intentionally weave them together for God’s glory and purposes.
Restless explores the fact that God has called each of us to do great things in his name, and then helps us discover what that might mean for each of us individually. Jennie says, “We are called to dream but we’re afraid to. But because we are called, when we don’t act on it we become restless-restless to find purpose, to make a difference in the world, to matter.”
Jennie doesn’t suggest women add one more thing to their to-do list, but instead invites them to stop and listen where they are. She frees them to be themselves and to see themselves as valuable. In addition to this permission to dream she helps them get over themselves and their issues and then offers a simple process on highly designed journal pages to identify the raw materials-the unique threads-they’ve been given by digging into five areas:
*Gifts
*Suffering
*Places
*People
*PassionsUsing her own story and that of women with whom she has walked through this process as examples, Jennie weaves in the story of Joseph the dreamer and how God used his threads to fit into the greater story of God. Untangling the threads of our lives and assembling them together in one place reveals a beautiful plan designed by the Creator himself:
God’s Agenda + my threads + the need + the Holy Spirit = my purposeAnd since living out our purpose is often filled with uncertainties Jennie addresses the doubts, fears, and challenges that hold women back from what they’ve been called to do. This repositioning of their lives is not a promise that all things will be perfect, or will go perfectly, but a promise that it will be the start of the best part of life-the part that completes what we were made for.
