Art Of Breathing
$15.99Add to cartMaking a living or really living?
Really living is an art form. After a few years on this planet, really living seems a bit idealistic. We are more likely to settle for making a living. So what happened? How did our stories end up here? How did we become so disconnected from the life for which we were made? Is there any hope of really living the abundant life Jesus promised?
Life on this side of Eden is not what we hoped for. It is not what we were made for. Something is missing. As we abide in Christ, we offer Him our hearts. He, in turn, offers His heart. We point to Him. He points to us. We give Him our pain. He heals and restores us to wholeness. We give our sin. He gives His forgiveness. We give our lives. He gives His life. We breathe out ourselves and inhale His presence, a fluid motion of abiding. This is the abundant life. This is the art of breathing.

Soul Custody
$15.99Add to cartSoul Custody calls readers to pay attention to the state of their soul-and free it to thrive.
Every day, inner and outer violence ravages the soul, leaving us weak, fearful, and malnourished. In Soul Custody, Stephen W. Smith presents eight choices to help readers reclaim custody of their one and only life-choices about silence, community, vocation, honoring the body, finding one’s true self, and more. As Smith reminds readers, allowing God to shape the soul leads to the deep, full, and satisfying life that God had in mind all along.This is not a self-help book. It is not a book of easy steps to a happy life. It is an invitation to the life God dreams for each of His children. It is a call to start living-to let the soul wake up to life as God intended.

Unbound : A Practical Guide To Deliverance (Reprinted)
$17.99Add to cartNew Look for an Essential Guide to Deliverance
As a pastor and teacher on deliverance, Neal Lozano knows that many believers struggle with the same sin areas time after time. Yet victory can be as simple as tapping into the potent power of the gospel. By focusing on Jesus and his work, rather than on the intimidating aspects of evil spirits, readers can reset their mindset about their spiritual struggles.
In Unbound, Lozano shows readers how to do just this. He also shows them how to find and close any doors they may have opened to evil influence–and, consequently, Satan’s underhanded strategies. Balanced and full of hope, Unbound is a practical, thorough, and easy-to-follow guide to deliverance and freedom. It also includes practical instruction on praying for others to be set free.

Its Not My Fault
$18.99Add to cartWhat seems like just a common, no-harm-done excuse-“It’s not my fault!”-is often a dangerous trap, say Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend, because people don’t recognize what the blaming mindset does to them. It not only keeps them from overcoming the effects of all that they can’t control-like other people, circumstances and genetics-but separates them from a solution. And when they give away the ownership of their life, they end up losing the one opportunity they have to fulfill their dreams and enjoy God’s best. Using eight principles, a variety of true stories and their years of experience as professional psychologists, Cloud and Townsend enlighten readers on how to make empowering choices-and how to build the life they want to live. It may seem impossible but it’s true: taking personal responsibility is not only liberating, it is the best-and perhaps the only-way for a person to get what they really want out of life.

If you are currently hemmed in and know the pain of feeling trapped, you are probably feeling drawn to this book. Christine Wyrtzen has a heart for you. Confinement has marked much of her life and she had no idea that spacious places, internally, could exist in the midst of crushing circumstances.

Right now, Jesus sees you in your pit of confinement. Whatever circumstances have fashioned your prison bars, He extends a hand to you. “Come on out,” He invites. “Live by the Word that comes out of my mouth. I will teach you to embrace my ways, and when you listen and follow me, you will know spacious places.” Deliverance from confinement always starts in the heart.

Biology Of Sin
$20.99Add to cartThere are heated discussions happening on the conflict between science and faith. This disagreement tends to focus around three main issues, one of them being what causes our sinful behavior. The intense conflict has to do with biblically defined sinful behaviors and if there just might be a biological predisposition for these behaviors. The Biology of Sin speaks to this debate and hopefully brings some resolution to the conflict. As both a Christian and a neuroscientist, Dr. Stanford has seen scientific knowledge distorted to justify sinful behavior and perhaps more disturbingly, he has seen Christians misuse Scripture to demonize and alienate the very ones they should be reaching out to. He suggests that the underlying cause of this problem in the church is a lack of knowledge, both of basic brain function and scriptural teaching. The Biology of Sin discusses sinful behaviors, including adultery, rage, addiction, and homosexuality, asking of each: What does science say, and what does the Bible say about this behavior?
He then attempts to reconcile the fact that biological predispositions do play a role in behavior which the Bible defines as sinful while always emphasizing the authority of God’s Holy Word and the abundant grace he has for those struggling with habitual sin.

Standing before God -
Way Of Wisdom
$16.49Add to cartThe apostle Paul tells us that “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work” (2 Tim. 3:16-17). At the same time, the book of Proverbs is specifically designed for the discipleship of our sons and daughters. You may not find “education” listed in your concordance, but if you broaden your search to include “son” or “sons” references in Proverbs occur in great abundance. And for good reason, as its main purpose is for teaching children: “To know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight, to receive instruction in wise dealing” (Pro. 1:2-3). Therefore, I believe parents should be rigorously intentional about teaching Proverbs to their children.
Rearing wise children in an age of foolishness requires concerted effort and thoughtfulness… My hope and prayer is that this book will aid parents as they fulfill their mandate to disciple their children and bring them up in The Way of Wisdom

Back To Sender
$14.99Add to cartSo many Christians experience delayed marriages, separation, divorce, suffering, affliction, sickness, poverty, disappointments and failures in their endeavours. Do you think it is the will of God that Christians experience such problems? It is definitely not the will of God. If it is not the will of God, why then do many still have problems? Very many suffer afflictions because they unknowingly practise some wrong doctrines.
One of such doctrines that make some Christians suffer is the back-to-sender prayer. The prayer seems logically reasonable but it actually opens the door for the devil into a person’s life. Anyone who prays such prayer has no relationship with Jesus Christ. In this book, Pastor Chris used the scripture to expose how praying back-to-sender opens the door for the devil into a Christian’s life, and how you can easily receive your heart desires.

When Jesus Came Into My Room
$16.49Add to cartThis book is a charming story of a young child’s experience when he in 1960, together with his big family, immigrated to Canada – far away from their homeland Denmark.
We follow him from his early years, as he struggles to adapt to a new culture – all is written in a touching and moving way, but not without a stroke of humour as well.
It all leads up to the year of 1971 where his life took a completely and unexpected turn, beginning from that night in January when “Jesus Christ entered his room!”
The year turned out to be a year of divine visitation for the author.
This book is a great testimony about God’s love and his readiness to reveal himself even to those who don’t seek him.
“My faith in God has been strengthened greatly by reading this book. God is able to make himself known to persons, whether they seek him or not. Esben Rokholm is my co worker in the ministry in my country as well as my friend and my coach and I thank God for him! I can warmly recommend this book!

Haiti Past Present Future
$12.00Add to cartWhen I think about what could be in the future for Haiti, my heart beats with hope. I have seen firsthand children who were born into poverty grow up through our mission and become leaders. I believe the future of Haiti is wrapped up in three specific objectives.
This first of these is its infrastructure. The country of Haiti has nothing to rebuild. We must build a new Haiti. From airports, to railroad systems, to roads and ports for shipping-Haiti must pioneer a future of mobility and commerce.
The second objective is education. More than 50% of the children in Haiti never attend school. There is no greater poverty than not knowing how to read or write. That is slavery…and it must stop! The children of Haiti deserve an education to help make a better future.
Last, but not least is the establishment of churches. Why? The church promotes values of family, community, and trust in God. With God all things are possible and there is no greater hope.
I invite you to read my blog at www.timdetellis.com where I share more long-term ideas for helping Haiti be a country of opportunity.

Unburdened : The Secret To Letting God Carry The Things That Weigh You Down
$16.99Add to cartTyndale House Print On Demand Title
In his Word, God promises us freedom from worry. Wouldn’t it be nice if we actually believed him? What would happen if you took the concerns that grip you, that keep you awake at night, that clench your stomach in knots . . . and truly handed them over to his keeping?
Like no other writer can do, best-selling author Chris Tiegreen opens your eyes and heart to a better, more weightless way to live. Unburdened won’t teach you how to avoid responsibility or hide from serious issues. Neither is it about how to escape and go live on a beach-though having a couple of palm trees around never hurts. It’s about taking the burdens you currently carry and making them much, much lighter. It’s about transferring the weight of your responsibilities from the weak shoulders of your flesh to the strong fingertips of God. It’s about learning to live in deep-down, heart-level freedom. And no one who reads Unburdened will walk away unchanged. -

An extrovert will make friends when in line buying coffee. A shared love of warm beverages becomes the topic at hand, and then maybe a few day-to-day pleasantries are exchanged as well. But, what if that person standing behind you asks about the sticky subjects in your life-faith, belief systems, morals, politics, or the Church? What do you say? How do you talk to someone without giving a sermon on the rights and wrongs of your own faith?Faith Intersections brings to light the idea of listening-rather than talking-to your friends, neighbors, and even the strangers in line about their faiths. Formatted in interview style, each chapter is a listening opportunity as a Christian leader interviews a person of another faith.
With honest exploration, Faith Intersections provides the readers-the listeners-with a challenge to rethink how they converse with individuals of other faiths.

In Rome in A.D. 165, two men named Carpus and Papylus stood before the proconsul of Pergamum, charged with the crime of being Christians. Not even torture could make them deny Christ, so they were burned alive. Is my faithfulness as strong? In the fifth century, Melania the Younger and her husband, Pinian, distributed their enormous wealth to the poor and intentionally practiced the discipline of renunciation. Could living more simply deepen my trust in God? In the sixteen hundreds, Philipp Jakob Spener’s love for the Word of God and his desire to help people apply the Bible to their life moved him to start “Colleges of Piety,” or small groups. In what ways could commitment to community make me more like Christ? The history of the church has shaped what our faith and practice are like today. It’s tempting to think that the way we do things now is best, but history also has much to teach us about what we’ve forgotten. In Water from a Deep Well, Gerald Sittser opens to us the rich history of spirituality, letting us gaze at the practices and stories of believers from the past who had the same thirst for God that we do today. As we see their deep faith through his vibrant narratives, we may discover that old ways can bring new life to our own spirituality. -

Dunham says, “Back in 2001 in the Missouri Intensive Care Unit, when my brother talked of seeing heaven, he also said, ‘I didn’t see God, but He told me I had to go back because He has more work for me to do.'”
Then she makes a startling statement: “Little did I know part of the work planned for him was his own sister.”
Months later, Richard called Dunham after hearing her marriage had collapsed. She was at a loss to deal with the depression and sense of betrayal that were left. He quickly identified his sister’s central problem: “Every sentence you are saying to me starts with the word ‘I.’ You are in control. God isn’t.”
In a series of eighteen more phone conversations over the next several months, Richard Miller shared wise counsel that Dunham documents in I Saw Heaven. His advice amazed her. She was the “good, churchgoing Christian,” and he was a recovering alcoholic who had been a struggling believer for a few years and had rarely attended church as an adult.
Yet Richard stated truth in ways that pierced her soul. She says, “I got it. I heard it.” The conversations encouraged her to search the Bible, to pray, and to meditate. Her life changed forever as a result.
I Saw Heaven is a testament to a way God often works-through the words of people who are not afraid to “speak the truth in love” to us. It portrays how one life was changed-and it’ll change yours, too.

Why Have You Forsaken Me
$29.99Add to cartIn this powerful book on the experience of desolation John Colwell focuses on Psalm 22, read in the light of his own struggle with bi-polar disorder and the Christian belief that God the Son suffered in his humanity, to offer existential-theological reflections on the experience of God-forsakenness.
‘My concern in writing this book and reading this psalm is to reflect on the felt experience of God-forsakenness, my own and that of Christ in the light of this psalm; to explore the theological and spiritual significance of this felt experience for myself, for Christ, for Christians generally. If this exploration proves to be helpful to me or to others then obviously I am glad, but I am not writing this book to be helpful but rather to be truthful (and perhaps hopeful). This is a personal journey of reflection with a psalm which I invite you, the reader, to share if you will.’

He leads you step-by-step into a more personal, intimate life with Christ.
Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said…”Whatever He says to you, do it.” …Jesus said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” …”Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine…. You have kept the good wine until now!” This beginning of signs Jesus did…and manifested His glory… (John 2:2-11 NKJV).
Using Jesus’ miracle of turning water to wine as a metaphor of the “new wine” of renewal that began at Pentecost and continues throughout the world, stimulating discussion centers on how you can drink in the new wine of God’s supernatural presence and love.

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.

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. -

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. -

Lord Give Me Patience
$15.99Add to cartWe are an impatient people who want everything done in a hurry. But God refuses to be rushed.
In the words of author James W. Moore:
We love instant results. We want everything done in a hurry these days. We don’t want to wait for anything. We are so different from the earlier generations who ordered things from the Sears catalog and waited with great anticipation for weeks or even months for the items to arrive. We want to pay a little down now (even if we can’t really afford it) and get it today.
We are impatient people looking for immediate action and instant gratification, so much so that God’s patient ways sometimes confuse, perplex, and bother us. We are impatient, but God is deliberate, steady, and long-suffering. We look for the speedy way, the shortcut, the instant answer, the immediate solution. But God takes the long way ’round. God refuses to be rushed.
The way to become a spiritually mature Christian is to spend so much time with Christ that we begin to think and act like him, to spend so much time with him that we take on what the apostle Paul called “the mind of Christ.” It just takes time and effort and commitment. There are no easy, instant solutions. What we need to remember is that the things that matter most take time, effort, commitment, discipline, lots of practice, lots of hard work . . . and lots of patience.
Working chapter titles include, “Lord, Give Me Patience, and Give it to Me Right Now”; “Lord, Give Me Perseverance”; ” Lord, Give Me Faith”; “Lord, Give Me Forgiveness”; “Lord, Give Me Love”; “Lord, Give Me Childlikeness”; “Lord, Give Me Life”; “Lord, Give Me Grace”; and others.
This book includes twelve chapters and a discussion guide.

Wake Up to God’s Presence!
We long to be transformed. Yet our minds are filled with endless trivia and self-centered chatter. To-do lists. Worries about the past. Speculation about the future. We forget to live in the present moment … and to invite God to be with us there.
After reading classic contemplative authors Brother Lawrence, Jean-Pierre de Caussade, and Frank Laubach, theologian and pastor Gregory Boyd longed to experience the presence of God for himself. For two decades, he’s attempted to implement the “practice of the presence of God” in his own life … sometimes succeeding, sometimes failing. What he’s learned as a fellow pilgrim on his spiritual journey can help you find true spiritual transformation as you begin to practice the discipline of inviting God into every moment.
“I’ve become absolutely convinced that remaining aware of God’s presence moment-by-moment is the single most important task in the life of every follower of Jesus,” Boyd writes. “I’m convinced this challenge is implied in our commitment to surrender our life to Christ, for the only real life we have to surrender to him is the one we live moment-by-moment.”

Life With God
$18.99Add to cartRichard Foster expounds on his introduction to the successful Renovare Spiritual Formation Bible and his concept of the “with-God life,” showing how all of Scripture is unified around the theme of how to have a vibrant and dynamic life with God. For Foster, the with-God life concept allows the “river of life that flows through the Bible into the thirsty wastelands of the human soul.” Breaking up history into fifteen epochs that reveal the unfolding of God’s plan for seeking out a relationship to us, Foster sees the Bible as “the loving heart of God made visible and plain” to us. The with-God life “is a life of unhurried peace and power. It is solid, serene, simple, radiant. It takes no time, though it permeates all of our time.” Readers will discover a whole new way to read Scripture, making it much more a doorway to a lifestyle to master rather than merely knowledge to understand.

For The Love Of The Lord (Student/Study Guide)
$13.99Add to cartAn in-depth look at what the Bible teaches about love and how that love should transform us.
The title For the Love of the Lord has a double meaning – it refers both to the love God has for us and the love we have for God. But what is love? How does it make us act? How does it change us? In this book, author Nancy Ferguson sets out to free readers from preconceived notions by finding out what the Bible says about love.
By acting out love toward others, we learn more about what it really is and what it can do. As we learn more about the love that God lavishes on us, we mature in the love of the Lord. As we mature in that love, we love God and others more and more. Thus, Nancy demonstrates, love is a circle that spirals upward until we reach our final destination, where we shall spend eternity basking in the glories of heaven in God’s presence. “My prayer,” writes Nancy, “is that as you read this book, you will learn more of God’s love and be drawn closer to the Source of the unlimited love lavished upon us daily, and that you will let that love transform your life into what God wants you to be.”
In this back-to-basics study, Nancy shares her passion for the Bible and God’s generous love.

Into His Presence
$16.49Add to cartSo What’s It All About?
Entering into His presence!
Now and ForeverNot always but often it seems, SUFFERING becomes the pathway leading to the highest awareness of God’s presence. I have, therefore, imagined characters who endure differing degrees of challenge, sadness, or suffering.
But I pray my readers will patiently read on past the sorrow, anticipating the vicarious joy of entering into His presence with Nick, or Matt, or Timmy, or the young guilty sinner-and with all the others!
No matter the intensity of the struggle, each character discovers powerful victory in this life’s journey or transitions into ultimate victory-into the King’s eternal presence.
Oh, to catch a glimpse of Him-for now and forever!
The greatest gift I have ever received is the apprehension of just one profound truth-that life everlasting and joy unending is available at no cost to us, for King Jesus paid it all.
