God Who Speaks Print On Demand Title
$25.99Add to cartA Print on Demand Title
As Christians we believe that God speaks – that God has spoken to people down through the centuries and still speaks to us today. But just how does God speak to us? Has his speech changed over time? And how do we “hear” the voce of God? In this insightful book Ben Campbell Johnson explores the subject of divine speech, highlighting its importance to faith and leading Christian believers into the practice of listening for God’s voice in daily life.
Johnson first explores the biblical foundations of divine communication, tracing the ways that God has spoken to humankind from the calling of Abraham, to the appearance of Jesus, to the continuing work of the Spirit in the early church. He then gleans important lessons about God’s language from a wide range of Christian figures throughout history – Polycarp, Julian of Norwich, Teresa of Avila, Henri Nouwen, and others.
As this historical record shows, God communicates with us in a variety of ways. In exploring these different modes of “GodSpeech,” Johnson deftly guides readers into the practice of “intensive listening,” a way of posing issues to God and discerning his response. Numerous anecdotes illuminate Johnson’s discussion, and each chapter ends with questions for reflection and discussion as well as suggestions for journaling. Johnson concludes the book by recounting a number of personal experiences that vividly illustrate the value of learning to listen to God’s voice.
At a time when many Christians hunger for a more personal, meaningful connection with God, this book shows readers how to discern divine language and forge a closer, richer relationship with “the God who speaks.”

Believer Warrior
$19.99Add to cartWhen a believer does not grow spiritually, he becomes a liability to the body of Christ. Just as a newborn baby starts at the infant stage, but with time grows to be a fully mature adult, a newly born-again believer goes through certain growth phases before he becomes a spiritually mature adult. Spiritual growth phases are clearly evident and unmistakable as seen throughout the New Testament epistles. One of the dominant characteristics of a carnal believer is unbrokenness. God allows the chastening process as if to chip away the outer man by periodic pain and affliction in the believer’s life. As the believer grows, he can no longer feel peace while having inward hatred toward others. Spiritual growth is not human perfection, but it is having a willing and obedient heart and mind to walk in the ways of God in spite of the common struggles of life.

Low Road To New Heights
$15.99Add to cartWellington Boone, author of the popular, well-reviewed Christian marriage manual Your Wife Is Not Your Momma, delivers the unvarnished truth about what it takes for Christian believers to become Christ-like.

Come To Me
$13.49Add to cartWeariness can wear away at our souls, our dreams, our hopes, our determination, and our joy. Weariness is a thief that steals life. It is a descending staircase that leads us into the deep pit of despair and threatens to leave us there with no way out. But the good news is that the way of Christ is ascending. It is the stairway that leads us out of human despair and into the joy of knowing and serving God. Come to Me: An Invitation for the Weary Soul comes to us from the heart of someone who has seen and experienced the dark shadows of true weariness of the soul and mind. In these pages, the author shares with us God.s solution to human weariness and explains why this invitation from Jesus Christ for us to “come” to Him is an invitation worth considering. Reviewed by: Marie DisBrow for Wordsmith Shoppe “Come to Me, written in an easy-to-read, conversational style, is a devotional aimed at those who are overcome by weariness. In this hectic and stressful world, there is surely a large audience for this book. The author uses experiences in his own life, and those of others, to show how weariness can overcome us. A prayer and Scripture reading conclude each of the fourteen chapters.” “The theme of the book is Jesus’ invitation to the weary in Matthew 11:28-30: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” I especially appreciated the author’s explanation of a yoke and how taking Jesus’ yoke upon us is not burdensome because it is “custom made” for each individual.” “Beaird encourages setting priorities: God first, then family and other relationships, and even ourselves. He reminds us that Jesus took time to be alone for prayer and refreshing.” “As a caregiver, I’ve often found myself weary and depressed. Reading Come to Me lifted my spirits and pointed to Jesus as the only true solution to the problem of weariness. This little book was very helpful to me, and I’ll read it again and again.” “Mark Beaird is a pastor, columnist, freelance writer, and the author of Let Me Encourage You Today: Daily Devotions and The Pastor’s Collection Sermon Series. Mark and his wife and two daughters reside in Huntsville, Alabama, where he serves as the associate pastor at Life Church International.” (C) Marie DisBrow for Wordsmith Shoppe Are you discouraged, weary, want to give up on the

Incredible Patience Of God
$15.99Add to cartMany believers become discouraged with the long process of growth in their walk with Christ. In fact, Lane Adams believes it is “the rare spiritual prodigy” who moves rapidly to spiritual maturity. In this refreshing and helpful book, he offers encouragement, candid humor, and practical insight for those who are struggling in their Christian lives. In many ways, some Christians today are indistinguishable from the culture around them.They deny moral absolutes of right and wrong and affirm situational ethics. Their God is one-sided-all blessing and no judgment. In this book, Lane Adams urges Christians to seek a balance between asking for forgiveness and being accountable. The Incredible Patience of God will help Christians rethink their beliefs about sin and repentance, and will assure believers who are sincerely seeking a closer relationship with God.

Forrest has rendered a great service to the Church by carefully instructing us regarding the supremacy of Christ.” Pastor Jim Owen Radio Bible Teacher “I have watched Forrest for nine years-a strong, athletic, determined man who has grown weaker with MS.

No Smoke Without Fire
$10.99Add to cartThis book deals with apostolic responsibility, which is to recover the welfare of God’s people. The Spirit of the Lord revealed this message. It brings restoration to thousands of souls who are manipulated, tortured, and confused by the enemy called the devil. God said, “My Word must surely come to pass.”This is the time that the power of God’s Word must go forth to break every yoke and burden on many lives, setting them free so they may experience God’s blessings as never before. God said to me, “Son, did you know that many people die in this world without using the blessings prepared for them on the earth?” Some of these blessings are personally designed so that no other individual may use them, and so they pile up in the storehouse of God. This is why God gave me this revelation: to help us live in the fullness of His blessings. This book will help you to pursue, overtake, and recover and also help you to stand out in life. Seize this moment and discover the joy in serving the only true God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Theres Enough Woman Left To Be Your Lady
$17.99Add to cartUsing biblical characters such as the woman with an issue of blood, Junious Epps Jr. shows how women are bleeding with issues that keep them bent over until they reach out to touch the hem of Jesus’ garment. Life knocks us all off balance, sometimes making it hard to get back on our feet. Hot rays of testing can turn a woman’s mind, home, job, and even church life into a wilderness of relentless turmoil.

Dr. Epps reminds women that in moments of indecision, God offers them a breakthrough revelation that they need to confront their trials and overcome their obstacles. Only in the wilderness can they discover their true path in life, ministry, fellowship, and anointing.

Window Of My Soul
$21.99Add to cartIt has been said that if a person can remember ten percent of a speech, he or she is doing well. That certainly goes for me, which is why I regularly take notes. However, many years ago I attended a seminar taught by a dear friend whose teachings I greatly respect. I have remembered one point from that seminar: When you pray, quit asking God, “Help me do this or that” (which doesn’t mean that sometimes we don’t need help). Rather, ask God, “Commit me to do today what is right.” If I am committed to do what is right each day, God directs me to make better decisions. Of course, I sometimes say or do the wrong thing. After all, I am just a pilgrim here. I ask forgiveness for the mistakes, learn from them, and press on to the goal set before me. I give God all the glory and praise for the words of encouragement He has given to me. As I share them, my prayer is that others will be encouraged as well.

Youth Ministry From The Inside Out
$16.00Add to cartFlash! Ping! Whiz! Pop! Boom! Bang! Crash! Such are the sights and sounds of modern youth ministry. We look for the bigger, the louder, the brighter. And we work long and hard to make our ministry the biggest, the loudest, the brightest. But look out and listen up: God is not caught up in sound and fury. And he doesn’t want to see youth workers disengage–letting the momentum define their purpose. Mike Higgs, reflecting on more than two decades of work with youth, thinks the greatest need among youth workers today is a reminder of who we are. We need to set aside the distractions of an emphasis on performance and focus instead on connecting with God in his work in us, our students and other youth workers. When a renewed spirit shapes our work with youth, our ministry will become less a muddled chorus of strategies and targets, and more a symphony of purpose and practice.

Are You Following Jesus
$15.99Add to cartWhat other noted ministers are saying about this book: “With no apologies, Ray Cummings calls today’s Christians on the carpet for the thoughtless compromises that creep into daily life and soil the Savior’s witness. Read through the work and you will find it reading you.” Dr. Harry L. Lucenay -Writer/Conference Speaker/Former Pastor of First Baptist Church -San Antonio, TX. “Dr. Cummings cuts to the heart of the matter. . . . If you are serious about growing in your faith . . . read and learn from Dr. Cummings’ insight and experience.” Dr. Ryan F. Whitley -Pastor of First Baptist Church of Center Point -Birmingham, AL. In Are You Following Jesus or Just Fooling Around? author Ray Cummings has chosen some oxymorons through which God has challenged him in his own personal walk with the Lord. Dr. Cummings focuses each chapter on spiritual evaluations that may help determine whether or not we are truly following Jesus.

Kind Of Capernaum
$17.49Add to cartThe world seems to be lamenting the trends that it has unwittingly established, as righteousness is exiled among the nations. Wrongful sowing has brought forth a harvest that has yielded many broken families. Biblical absolutes are being undermined and intolerance has increased toward those who carry an earnest Christian expression. Few aspects of our lives are unspoiled by the indifference to righteousness. Our society has become like Capernaum in rejecting holiness. To many, the only wrong thing is to claim that you are right. Like a crop-eating parasite, sin has eaten away at the consciences of many. Even among professed Christians, many have surrendered their convictions, apologizing when they should be celebrating the truth of God’s Word. Their souls’ defenses have broken down, leaving no barriers against sin in their lives. The people constantly reject the restraints provided by God’s Word, substituting divine truth for a reactionary common sense called “do whatever feels good.” Therefore, one is left to wonder how deeply people must sink into depravity before this Titanic generation turns to God. This book is intended to remind people that knowledge of divine truth will better prepare them to live godly lives, fitting them as citizens for the New Jerusalem.

Si Quieres Caminar Sobre Las A – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartPeter may have gotten out of the boat nearly 2000 years ago, but Jesus’ invitation still stands today. But what is waiting on the other side could just be a lot of water and very little chance of remaining above it. As Jesus’ followers, we can follow His calling, but can we walk on water? To walk on water means to: * Face our fears and not allow others to have the last word in our lives. * Discover God’s calling for your life and follow it for the rest of your life. * Experience God’s power in your life in order to achieve what wasn’t possible in your own strength. Christ walked on water successfully. There’s only one thing that you need to do before you can walk on water successfully: You need to get out of the boat!

Maximum Discipleship : Learning And Living All The Commandments Of Christ
$17.49Add to cartJesus came to serve, not to be served. But He also came to lead people out of darkness into lives of great godly influence in their homes, churches, schools, jobs, and communities. He has planted each of us where we can have the greatest impact upon others around us. There are books on the market about servanthood or leadership, but rarely are the two put together in one text. These have been connected in a practical and teachable fashion to help leaders and believers to know how to function as servants and leaders and greatly influence others wherever the Lord has placed them. Servant leadership principles are intended for all believers to live out in their daily lives and ministries, wherever that may be. You can and will impact and influence your world through these dynamic principles that Jesus taught. We are to be servant leaders at home, on the job, at school, at work, in church, in our communities and nations, and everywhere we go. Therefore, this book will teach leaders and believers the New Testament principles of serving and leading like Jesus so as to impact and influence people like Jesus also. Having lived in Eastern Europe during the height of communism, and being a part of the spiritual transformation now taking place there, the author lays out the biblical basis for transforming communities and nations through servant leadership.

Reaching For The Invisible God
$16.99Add to cartIn Disappointment With God, Philip Yancey explored how we frequently have false expectations of God and the way he interacts with us and the world.

He probes an area of faith where theology and personal experience often oppose each other and searches out workable ways for Christians to grow into what he calls “childlike maturity.”

Jesus I Never Knew
$19.99Add to cartAn old adage says, “God created man in His own image and man has been returning the favor ever since.” Philip Yancey realized that despite a lifetime attending Sunday school topped off by a Bible college education, he really had no idea who Jesus was. In fact, he found himself further and further removed from the person of Jesus, distracted instead by flannel-graph figures and intellectual inspection. He determined to use his journalistic talents to approach Jesus, in the context of time, within the framework of history.
In The Jesus I Never Knew, Yancey explores the life of Jesus, as he explains, “‘from below,’ to grasp as best I can what it must have been like to observe in person the extraordinary events unfolding in Galilee and Judea” as Jesus traveled and taught. Yancey examines three fundamental questions: who Jesus was, why he came, and what he left behind. Step by step, scene by scene, Yancey probes the culture into which Jesus was born and grew to adulthood; his character and mission; his teachings and miracles; his legacy–not just as history has told it, but as he himself intended it to be.Yancey is not alone in his examination of the “real” Jesus. Publishing today is replete with writers committed to setting the story “straight,quot; joining countless others who, over the past 2,000 years, have determined to discover the truth about Jesus. But where others would deconstruct and discount, Yancey disarms and discloses. We become colleagues with him as he examines the accounts of the life of Jesus. And among the things that we discover is that Jesus himself leaves us few options: either he was who he said he was or he was nuts.
Philip Yancey was awarded the Gold Medallion Christian Book of the Year award for this book in 1996 by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association. It’s not the first, nor the last, award Yancey has won for his writing. But the writing is not necessarily the great gift of this book. Yancey allows the reader to discover, along with him, The Jesus I Never Knew.
