This book includes scripture references that teach us the characteristics that should be evident in our lives. When under pressure, what is in you will come out of you and God allows us to be tested to produce and develop our character.
“The Actions of Love” There are specific actions associated with godly love in the lives of Christians. Jesus made it very clear that unbelievers will know we are Christians because of the love we have for one another. Your Actions reveal what is in your heart and as Christians; our actions should confirm our words.

Surviving The Desert
$17.49Add to cartLife is filled with many heartaches, pains, sickness, diseases, and civil unrest. There are adversities on every side and the more advanced science seems to get the greater the adversities seem to get. This was never the plan of God for this earth nor for you. All the adversity that we face today physical, mental, emotional, relational etc. has been brought about by sin. When sin was brought into this world by the rebellious act of Adam & Eve the whole earth has been corrupted from that time forth. Man has had to suffer sickness, pain, discomfort, heartaches, diseases and a world filled with civil unrest on every side.
The pressures that we face everyday can sometimes be overwhelming. Life seems uncrossable desert. No matter which way we look all we can see is the hot dry sand, there is no oasis in sight, it seems to be endless. Our hearts are distressed and we are brought into a deep depression over the situations we have to face and nothing seems to help no matter what we try. This is not the way that God plans for you to live! God planned to give you a life filled with joy and blessing! Jesus Christ said: “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10b KJV)

Genesis Record : A Scientific And Devotional Commentary On The Book Of Begi (Rep
$50.00Add to cartThe Genesis Record is the only commentary on the complete book of Genesis written by a creationist scientist. Written as narrative exposition rather than a critical verse-by-verse analysis (although discussions on all important historical and scientific problems are woven in to the narrative), The Genesis Record is equally useful to both the theologically trained and the layperson.
Dr. Henry M. Morris writes from the conviction that the first eleven chapters of Genesis are as truly historical as the remaining thirty-nine. This conviction is based not simply on faith but on many years of scientific study as well as the interchange of ideas with many other scientists, (both creationists and evolutionists).
In The Genesis Record, you will be conducted by a capable guide through the corridors of earth’s early history, providing the background so necessary in understanding all of Scripture. This exploration of the beginning of all things will offer insight into human character and will impact the application of biblical truth to your life in the twenty-first century.

When living with chronic, terminal, or progressive illness, discovering a way to pray can be quite a challenge. These thirty meditations provide a welcome means with practices inspired by the psalms.

Broken Jar : 365 Days On The Potters Wheel
$32.99Add to cartBroken Jar is for those who wish to be transformed by the Potter from a showboat into an ark of testimony for Him. It is for earthen vessels who know that to be continually molded by His hands-even broken and reformed, if need be-is the only way to keep bearing His hallmark-the only way to continue glorifying the true Potter. From January through December, these daily devotionals, anchored deeply in the Word of God, ask challenging questions about growing pains and comfortable stagnation: * Are we allowing the Potter to do as He pleases with us, the clay? * Do we trust Him to put pressure where it is needed to mold us to His liking, or do we stiffen at and shrink from His touch? * When we arrive at a shape we like, do we grow so proud and possessive of this present form that we disengage ourselves from the wheel to harden into an independent and finished pot to remain permanently “fixed”? This book is for those jars who refuse to stay fixed.

From Moab To Bethlehem
$34.99Add to cartFrom Moab to Bethlehem…Journey to the King is an in-depth study of the biblical book of Ruth. Full of deep insights by author Cynthia Shomaker, it traces the footsteps of Naomi and Ruth and takes the reader on an inspiring journey from doubt, despair and defeat to triumphant faith and satisfying fulfillment. First taught to a small Bible study group, the 44 lessons in From Moab to Bethlehem address issues every person deals with, among them: the temptation to trust in earthly things, failed expectations, responding to loss, disillusionment and despair, past sins and other debilitating conditions, self-doubts and insecurities and false saviors. Along the way, it constantly points the reader to Jesus, the King, the true Savior and Redeemer, who much like Boaz, Ruth’s kinsman-redeemer, is not only able to redeem fully, but to provide “exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think.” This inspirational book challenges us to dare to leave our “Moabs” behind, venture by faith onto the pathway to Bethlehem, the “House of Bread,” and find there in Christ everything we’ll ever need.

Book Of Wisdom By John Gill (Revised)
$29.49Add to cartAbout the Author John Gill (1697 – 1771) was born in Kettering, Northamptonshire. In his youth, he attended Kettering Grammar School, mastering the Latin classics and learning Greek by age eleven. The young scholar also had a love for Hebrew which would follow him throughout his life. At about twelve years of age, Gill heard a sermon from his pastor, William Wallis, whose text came from Genesis 3:9, “And the Lord called unto Adam, and said unto him, where art thou?” He reflected often on the message of Wallis’ sermon and it eventually led to his conversion. It was not until seven years later, however, that young John made a public profession of his faith in Christ, when he was almost nineteen years of age. His first pastoral work was as an intern at age twenty one, and he later became a pastor in Southwark, England. His pastorate lasted 51 years. Gill was an English Bible scholar, and a prolific writer who authored among other things, an expository commentary on the entire Bible. John Gill was a profound scholar whose ministry in some fashion still touches millions of people worldwide. About this Book Unlike human wisdom, the Book of Proverbs is of divine inspiration. The Book of Wisdom is presented as a devotional from John Gill’s commentary on these Proverbs. Book of Wisdom is a tribute offered by the James J. MacCabbee Company to Pastor John Gills’ lifetime of brilliant work. As Proverbs 8:1, “Doth not Wisdom cry?” This daily devotional is prepared for governmental leaders, leaders in the news and entertainment industries, clergy and laypersons; employees and employers; spouses, parents and children. In fact Wisdom is offered to “anyone who has ears to hear” (see Matthew 13:9). Those who receive such Wisdom as presented here will not be disappointed.

More Precious Than Gold
$21.99Add to cartTheologian and pastor Sam Storms urges readers to discover and delight in the treasures of Psalms through 50 days of meditations on this beloved Bible book. In his third book of daily meditations, Sam Storms urges readers to not just enter into God’s Word but to take the next step toward knowing him and his Word better. And the book of Psalms, Storms believes, is a great place to start, because Psalms is so popular and so very relevant to our experiences today. In More Precious Than Gold, Storms combines years of life experience and his biblical and theological training to bring readers 50 brief, daily meditations that are both stylistically accessible and theologically substantive. Each meditation includes a historical or theological reflection on the psalm in context, a story that brings it alive, and creative tools to support the key idea. Storms also interweaves the words of such luminaries as Charles Spurgeon, Jonathan Edwards, and John Piper to help readers better understand the concepts that are featured throughout Psalms: worship, prayer, joy, forgiveness, steadfast love, mercy, sin’s consequences, the law of the Lord, and our relationship with our enemies. Like the Psalter, Storms doesn’t shy away from the tough issues. Instead, he encourages readers to experience through these daily meditations what he and generations of Christians have found to be true: that the whole of the Christian faith is about lifting God higher and magnifying his name-even during difficult times.

40 Day Journey With Julian Of Norwich
$12.99Add to cartThe volumes in the 40-Day Journey series invite readers to take a spiritual journey with a great spiritual guide from the past or the present. In this volume, readers will be inspired by Julian, a celebrated English mystic from the fourteenth century and a recluse at St. Julian’s Church in Norwich, whose writings were the first works in English known to be written by a woman.
Drawing from her published writings, editor Lisa Dahill here selects forty inspiring passages from Julian’s work that help illustrate God’s love and compassion for all.

In it she speaks of the great love of God for God’s people and how sin stands in the way. It is Jesus, however, who assures her, “that all would be well, and all manner of things would be well.”
40-Day Journey with Julian of Norwich begins with a short introduction to the life of Julian and then offers forty chapters, each of which includes a reading from her writings, related Scripture passages, questions to ponder, journal-reflection exercises, and a prayer.

Power Of Gods Love
$9.99Add to cartDr. Charles Stanley’s month-long exploration into the heart of God strengthens and encourages readers to live as those fully and unconditionally loved. People will go to nearly any extreme to feel loved. They run from relationship to relationship, buy new homes and cars, search for new jobs . . . all in hopes of fulfilling their deepest longings. But far too often, every person in this pursuit comes up empy-handed feeling alone, unloved, and mistreated. There is only one Person who can meet all your needs-especially the need to be loved-and that is Jesus Christ. In The Power of God’s Love, Dr. Stanley writes, “We hear about the love of God and think, ‘Oh, but you don’t what I have done. God could never love me.’ The awesome truth is this: God loves you unconditionally. He created you in love, and He has promised to love you forever. When you give your life to Him, your search for true love is over!”

Light Within : Meditation As Pure Prayer
$15.99Add to cartThe Benedictine monk and writer, Laurence Freeman, took over the mantle of John Main after his death in 1982 and continues the work that he began, teaching Christians from all traditions the simplest way of prayer – meditation.

This collection of talks on Christian meditation is full of practical advice and great spiritual insights in equal measure. It shows how discovering the presence of Christ within through meditative prayer can give shape and purpose to everything we do and are: our actions, emotions, fears, longings, failings and dreams. As John Main taught, the point of this kind of prayer is to allow God’s presence to become not just a reality, but the reality of our lives.
