We, as Christians, tend to think of wisdom as something to be attained-an ideal to which we aspire. Charles Stanley contends that genuine wisdom is evidenced in how we live.

Love The Greatest Thing
$12.49Add to cartThe Bible from Genesis to Revelation overflows with the message of God’s great love for mankind. That message is to be flowing through every believer’s life. Without God’s agape unconditional love, the Christian’s life is void of power and faith is limited, for they are missing the main ingredient. The “harvest is great” in these last days, and it will take the compassion of Jesus to bring souls in. Every believer who truly wants to be used by God must be “clothed” in love. Only three things will remain when the fullness of time comes: faith, hope and love. The greatest of these is love!

Following The Tides To Nourish Your Soul
$23.99Add to cartPhysically we nourish ourselves by keeping our bodies healthy. The same applies to our minds and souls. The ability to properly nourish these three elements- mind, body, and soul-gives us the inner strength to break free from every care. When we fail to nourish ourselves spiritually, the soul becomes damaged and we begin to lose the nourishment we’ve worked so hard for. As you read Following the Tides to Nourish Your Soul, it will help you to remember that the same God who made the waters and the land will see you through any trial or tribulation that you might be faced with from day to day. And even though times may seem difficult, we must keep trying because heaven can be right here on earth, if we keep our eyes on the prize. Mr. Leroy DeShazor, my high school football coach, once said to us that no matter what the outcome after the game, whether we win or lose, we must never give up. He often quoted, “Winners never quit and quitters never win.”

While some women may feel unworthy of their dreams because of past sins, God tells them to let go and look forward.

And just like these biblical heroes, you can learn how to see what God is doing and how he is changing your life while you’re waiting.
Don’t miss out on the richness of this God-ordained lag between catching a vision for your calling and seeing God fulfill it. No matter how long you have to wait, you can be transformed as God prepares you to fulfill your divine calling.

Code Red : Wars Of The Heart
$15.99Add to cartCodes are a part of our everyday lives. Medical, health, and emergency services use codes to identify the condition of a patient or situation. For example, Code Red indicates a fire, while Code Blue signifies cardiac or respiratory arrest. While Code Red indicates immediate danger, Code Blue indicates imminent death, both naturally and spiritually. Codes rule the world; namely geneticmorris- bar-government-moral-war and the codes of laws. Code Red applies to situations that are dangerous to one’s spiritual health and welfare. It is a warning to be alert and to take immediate action. Left unresolved, a spiritual Code Red situation can quickly become Code Blue. Both evil codes work to lead every soul unto the most deadly code of all called 666. If the church is to fulfill God’s purpose and win the lost, it must be victorious over Code Red and cleanse itself of all unrighteousness. Hosea 4:6 says that “God’s people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge.” A new heart is our best defense and only Jesus Christ can give it to us. Jesus Christ, our “heart specialist,” walked upon this earth healing all Code Red sickness and disease. He died in Code Blue but rose from the dead victoriously on the third day. His victory is our victory! We can now boldly declare war on Code Red even as it has declared war on our hearts. Let the battle begin!

Life Wide Open
$15.99Add to cartMost Christians sense that something vital is missing from their walk with the Lord. We are easily discouraged and bogged down with busyness, boredom, mediocrity and routine. In this energizing new book, Dr. David Jeremiah opens our eyes to how we can live a life that exudes an attitude of hope and enthusiasm . . . a life of passion . . . a LIFE WIDE OPEN!

Think Like Jesus
$18.99Add to cartAccording to researcher George Barna, most born-again Christians live indistinctly from non-believers because they do not think any differently – which is a result of not understanding the basic truths of the Christian faith. Unveiling new data showing that less than one out of every ten born-again adults know the foundational truths of their faith well enough to “think like Jesus,” the author identifies seven core questions that Christians must be able to answer biblically in order to live a transformed life. The book provides the scriptural responses to those questions and practical applications that will enable Christians to learn how to “think like Jesus.”

Como Responder Ante El Maltrat – (Spanish)
$11.99Add to cart“Repay no one evil for evil” (Romans 12:17 NKJV). Easier said than done, right? But that’s exactly what John Bevere recommends in Como responder ante el maltrato. We are all subject to some authority, and those in leadership often misuse their power and hurt others. But we as Christians are called to honor and submit to authority, even if it means accepting unfair treatment.
“‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord” (Romans 12:19 NKJV). God’s justice often takes longer than we want to wait, but it does come. And our obedience in accepting suffering increases His work in the lives of others. Ultimately, our model for responding to unfair treatment is Jesus. And by enduring suffering as He did, we are made more like Him.
No pagueis a nadie mal por mal (Romanos 12.17). Es mas facil decirlo que hacerlo, Verdad? Pero eso es exactamente lo que John Bevere recomienda en Como responder ante el maltrato. Todos estamos sujetos a alguna autoridad, y aquellos que estan en liderazgo muy frecuentemente dan un mal uso de su poder y lastiman a otros. Pero nosotros como cristianos somos llamados a honrar y someternos a las autoridades, aun cuando esto signifique aceptar un trato injusto.
Mia es la venganza, yo pagare dice el Seor (Romanos 12.19). La justicia de Dios muy frecuentemente se tarda mas de lo que esperamos, pero siempre llega. Y nuestra obediencia en aceptar el sufrimiento engrandece su obra en las vidas de los demas. En ultima instancia, nuestro modelo para responder ante un trato injusto es Jesus. Y al soportar el sufrimiento tal como El lo hizo, nos hacemos mas como El.

Milagros – (Spanish)
$11.95Add to cartEn realidad suceden milagros? “El milagro principal del que hablan los cristianos es la Encarnacion. Ellos dicen que Dios se hizo Hombre. Cualquier otro milagro sucedio en preparacion para esto, o es un resultado de esto.” Este es el punto clave de Los Milagros, obra en la cual C. S. Lewis nos muestra que un cristiano debe no solo aceptar sino tambien regocijarse de los milagros como testimonios de la participacion de Dios en la creacion. Utilizando su caracteristico calor, lucidez e ingenio, Lewis desafia a los racionalistas y a los cinicos por su falta de imaginacion, y ofrece una poetica y alegre afirmacion que los milagros si ocurren en nuestras vidas cotidianas.

Race For Obedience
$41.99Add to cartAthletes of the world will tell you about the rigorous exercises to which they submit when they intend to win. Rev. Jim says, “The race is in the running.” First is the thrill of swiftly moving forward with the intent to win.

We begin again and get ready for the next race as another threshold arises in the soul to run again. On the spiritual plain, exercises are also needed to win the race. In this book I have attempted to present exercises relevant to a better Christian life. I give substance to the race by suggesting exercises to walk as God would have you walk and to run as He would have you run.

Finding God : The Real Thing
$13.49Add to cartWhile hiking high in the mountains, trying to find the elusive and beautiful white mountain goat that I knew was there, low clouds appeared suddenly, totally obscuring my vision. Airplane pilots call it zero zero visibility. Not only is it impossible to find the quarry, but if you proceed in such conditions, you are also in danger of making a wrong choice of direction, leading to one of those precipitous drops so common in these mountains, jeopardizing all your future. The current hazy religious atmosphere is similar. A serious searcher for satisfaction, truth, and the right way is surrounded by false claims, foggy ideas, and contradictory instructions. He cannot see the right way because of the fog, and if he chooses wrong, it can lead in the end to disaster forever. But God has cleared away the clouds in His inspired Book. He is not the author of confusion. Come, look, and allow Him to direct your way. The reward is the abundant life that lasts for eternity. He is the One who loves you the most, knows you the best, and never makes a mistake. Other books by Paul Weimer include With You Always, which is a collection of short accounts of experiences through many years of church planting and flying in Alaska, and The Shepherd and His Sheep, a devotional on John 10.

IndexAdditional Info
In this masterful historical survey, theologian John Macquarrie demonstrates how Christians, especially the great mystics, have experienced at their own “radiant core” the love and presence of God.The word mysticism evokes ecstatic visions, asceticism, and esoteric teaching. Yet, the author maintains, mystics are better thought of as people who exhibit common human curiosity, long to explore religious mystery, and ultimately find a deep personal relationship with God.
Macquarrie discusses in detail the ten common traits of mysticism before tracing two millennia of Christian mysticism. He mainly allows the mystics to speak for themselves, but he is also particularly insightful about the greatest individuals of the tradition – from Paul to the patristic Platonists to the classic medieval mystics to a host of twentieth-century exemplars.

Speeding Beyond The Limit
$16.49Add to cartWhat does the Bible really teach about how Christian believers are to behave on the earth? SPEEDING BEYOND THE LIMIT? by John L. Langston III John Langston III searches the Scriptures to find an answer to the question, “How should we behave before a holy God?” This study reveals many convicting and sobering glimpses of righteous behavior that brings glory to a righteous God. Included in the author’s expository look at righteous behavior are some rarely recognized, perhaps never thought about aspects of what really pleases God. Were it not for the Bible, we would have no idea what behavior is really acceptable or right in the sight of God. The knowledge of how to respond to God in a worshipful and pleasing way should be the desire of every believer. The question is, are we guilty of speeding beyond the boundaries of what God has chosen to please Him concerning the believer’s earthly behavior? God forbid that anyone who claims to be redeemed by salvation in Christ would not listen to God’s instructions in the Bible, which is meant to guide our daily conduct.

Knowing Me Knowing You
$18.99Add to cartThis new edition of this fascinating and revealing book offers a beginner’s guide to the ‘Myers-Briggs Type Indicator’, showing how your personality type and temperament affects all aspects of your life and relationships with others. The MBTI can help you discover why you think and behave in certain ways, and why other people respond to you as they do. It can help you identify your major strengths – what makes you do some things better than others – and it can help you make more of those aspects of your personality that may be lying dormant and under-developed. The MBTI can be helpful in improving all kinds of relationships – whether you’re at home with your family, at work with your colleagues, or perhaps on a course studying for an exam. It can also be helpful in understanding the life of the Church; why people have different ways of responding to God, both emotionally and intellectually; why some are attracted to a particular kind of church; and why some prefer to pray in one way and not in others. In all these areas of life, the MBTI has proved itself an invaluable means of achieving a deeper self-understanding. It can also lead to a greater sense of self-worth and a richer and more realistic appreciation of other people. ‘A delightful introduction to my mother’s work’. Peter Briggs Myers.

Surrendering To God
$17.99Add to cartDo you ever feel that prayer has become rote repetition, or that the simple prayers of childhood have lost their meaning?
In this life-changing little book, Rev. Keith Beasley-Topliffe shares his experience of praying the Covenant Prayer-a classic prayer that calls us to surrender completely to God. Line by line, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe uses the wisdom of the prayer of surrender as a guide for those who want to learn to trust God more. With honesty and gentle humor, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe shows us how simple prayers not only express our heart’s desires to God, but also open the doorway to deeper prayer and transformation.
“Abandonment to God is at the heart of Christian formation. Prayer is the means by which we surrender to God. Keith combines these two elements in a way that enables us to grow in grace through the regular use of this classic prayer.”
Dr. Steve Harper, Vice President
Asbury Theological SeminaryThe Covenant Prayer
I am no longer my own, but thine.
Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt;
put me to doing, put me to suffering;
let me be employed for thee or laid aside for thee,
exalted for thee or brought low for thee;
let me be full, let me be empty;
let me have all things, let me have nothing;
I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal.
And now, O glorious and blessed God,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
thou art mine, and I am thine.
So be it.
And the covenant which I have made on earth,
let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.Keith Beasley-Topliffe is the editor of The Upper Room Spiritual Classics and a major contributor to The Spiritual Formation Bible. He is the pastor of Fifth Street United Methodist Church in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Keith and his wife, Carola, who is also a United Methodist pastor, reside in Marysville, Pennsylvania.
“Surrendering to God is a rich spiritual resource. . . . These strikingly honest meditations offer both fresh challenge and encouragement in helping us examine our daily actions and attitudes toward work and possessions and how we deepen our trust in God’s guidance for all of life.”

Cuando El Enemigo Ataca – (Spanish)
$18.99Add to cartDescripcion (Description):
En algun momento de su vida, todos los cristianos nos enfrentaremos a un ataque satanico: un asalto energico del diablo con el proposito de daar nuestro espiritu, alma o cuerpo. Dios quiere que los cristianos esten bajo su control, pero el enemigo nos quiere bajo su influencia, y hara todo lo posible por destruir todo lo bueno en nuestras vidas.
At some point or another every Christian will experience a satanic attack-a willful, determined assault by the Devil for the purpose of harming our spirit, soul, or body. God wants Christians to be under His control, but the Enemy ultimately wants us under his influence, and he will do his best to destroy everything good in our lives. So the question is not how to avoid satanic attacks, but how to overcome them.
Satan is not omnipotent, but he is nonetheless a very powerful adversary. However, God does not leave us to defend ourselves, and He wants us to understand His supernatural and unlimited ability to help us. Dr. Stanley will show readers how to achieve victory by:
Identifying the enemy
Dressing in the full armor of God and standing firm
Releasing God’s energy, divine power, and protection through prayer
Sensing the forewarnings of Satan’s attacks on finances, family, relationships, or healthSpiritual warfare is fought every day on the battlefield of your mind. The Adversary knows that if he can influence and direct your thinking, it’s only a matter of time before you’re vulnerable to the allure of sin. Dr. Stanley teaches that to stand against Satan’s attacks, you must meditate upon biblical principles and take every thought captive by arming yourself with the sword of the spirit-God’s Word.

Calvinism In The Las Vegas Airport
$14.99Add to cartA friendly, conversational look at how Calvinism can work in the 21st century Richard Mouw opens this conversational look at Calvinism by retelling a scene from the movie Hardcore. While a pious Calvinist elder played by George C. Scott is trying to track down his daughter who has run away from home, he talks to a young unchurched woman in the Las Vegas airport, unsuccessfully explaining the theology of his Dutch Christian Reformed denomination. This incongruous conversation illustrates the stereotype that Calvinism doesn’t work or fit in today’s world. Rather than being an academic and systematic exposition of doctrine, this book wrestles with some of the distorted views people hold of Calvinists, clears up some common misconceptions, and shows how to live gently and respectfully with Christians who disagree, as well as with people who have no clue what TULIP means. The author revisits the Las Vegas airport and discusses how that conversation might have played out differently.

Loving Jesus
$18.00Add to cartIn this biblical spirituality for today, Powells earnest plea is for Christians to revisit their faith not by blazing in religious enthusiasm but by harboring a steadier flame and deeper commitment. Living at the poetic heart of faith, he argues, entails seeing the coordinates of religious life–love, understanding, truth, hope, and especially devotion–in a new way. Powell espouses the old fashioned idea of piety. Drawing on his wide knowledge of the Bible and Christian tradition, as well as insights from his own journey, he shows how simple religious practices move us beyond the old certitudes of a naive and youthful faith into the less certain but more bracing terrain of a second naivete, a closer walk with Jesus.

Listening To Love
$16.99Add to cartOne of our greatest desires is to know we are loved by our Creator. Yet the depth of our apprehension is often equally strong: If I listen, we wonder, what will God say? If I open myself up to blessings, what will God require in return? As we trace this line of thinking, the God of all goodness becomes, in our minds, the God of our worst fears. Embrace a love that’s worth the risk. God is far greater than our most expectant dreams. While he does often ask everything of us, he actually wants everything for us. He doesn’t want blind loyalty or bored religious compliance; he longs for nothing less than our entire passionate self – something most us of have yet to glimpse. God’s desire is that people lean in, listen, and wrestle with him so that they can respond to him without fear. Can this God be trusted? Will the journey be easy? Not a chance. But once you learn to listen to love, you’ll find that there’s only one way you can adore this unmanageable, wild, and unruly God: with your whole heart.

Scandalous Freedom : The Radical Nature Of The Gospel
$17.99Add to cartA RADICAL FREEDOM
God has set us free – and at great cost – but many Christians live in self-imposed bondage. Rather than delighting in God’s lavish grace, they are fearful of igniting his displease.
As author Steve Brown explains in this brave, new book, too many Christians don’t trust freedom – for themselves or others. They prefer the security of manmade regulations to the adventure of freedom. The implications of freedom, Brown asserts, can sometimes be dangerous; but the alternative is deadly: a life without joy and void of celebration of our unique gifts in Christ.
Each riveting chapter explores a common freedom – stifling tendency, then opens the door to the fresh air of remedial liberty. Chapter titles include:
The Perfection We Desire. . .and the Forgiveness That Sets Us Free
The Masks We Wear. . .and the Authenticity That Sets Us Free
The Boldness We Fear. . .and the Courage That Sets Us Free
The Failure We Foster. . .and the Victory That Sets Us FreeDare to explore the joys of biblical freedom. Open the pages of this book and begin a journey that will set you free – really and truly and completely free.
