There is something about his look, his mannerisms, the way he interacts with people that compels you to wander away from your friends, following him through the crowd. You intently watch his every move, hardly aware of others around you. Suddenly, he turns and looks directly at you. “What do you want?” Jesus asks. Face to face with Jesus, how do you respond? What do you say when you know your life is about to change?So begins the journey. Becoming Fire leads you to step away from the world that pulses with immediate information and images and invites you to the age-old practice of listening to stories and engaging your imagination. Through Jeanie Miley’s meditations and reflective questions, you will enter the stories of and be touched by Jesus as he encountered other people. Your relationship with God will be invigorated and deepened by the contemplative and imaginative scripture reading and prayers of Becoming Fire.

Colors Of The Spirit
$15.00Seldom does a teacher come along with the ability to take the exuberance of spiritual joy and put it on a page in lessons of graceful simplicity and life-giving power. But in Colors of the Spirit, readers are introduced to just such a teacher in Dorothy Ederer. Here she shares her own prescription for a fulfilling life, and illustrates it with the stories of those who have enriched her own journey. You will see in these stories people who looked inside themselves and discovered the potential God gave them to touch others. These individuals were the colors that brightened Dorothy’s world, a world which was sometimes darkened by the hopelessness she encountered in her work as a counselor and teacher. Yet she found that just as white light is filtered through raindrops to create a rainbow, so too is God’s light filtered through all of creation and manifested in each being in a unique way. In Colors of the Spirit, Ederer goes through each color of the rainbow to share the special meanings they have for her, and how the qualities they represent can bring us peace and joy in our own lives.

The reader can enter into the experiences of Jesus by reading a selected scripture from the Gospels and one of the meditations, and then picturing the scene and identifying with the feelings and thoughts of Jesus in that scene.
At the end of each meditation is a question to encourage reflection and a deepening of one’s own understanding of how the life of Christ intersects with and transforms the reader’s life.
Miley has written seven mediations for each of the thirty-five (35) Gospel stories

Pilgrim Souls : A Collection Of Spiritual Autobiography
$33.95What is the source of personal writing? When do we begin to consider our own lives worthy of a story? These powerful and passionate selections of spiritual autobiography do not merely represent a vital literary tradition; they bring together fifty-eight writers whose search for truth and understanding has spanned over two millennia and several continents.
From Saint Augustine and Rabi’a to T. S. Eliot and Kathleen Norris, each of these autobiographers tells the story of the inner life as a spiritual quest. Although separated culturally, historically, and linguistically, they are united by their efforts to respond to Socrates’ challenge to “know thyself.” In four parts this insightful collection includes works by:
* Wanderers and seekers, like Leo Tolstoy and Thomas Merton, who feverishly explore many experiences and world views
* Pilgrims and missionaries, like Anne Bradstreet and David Livingstone, who unwaveringly pursue God and holiness in lives of self-sacrifice
* Mystics and visionaries, like Julian of Norwich and Annie Dillard, who discover the ecstasy of epiphany in a life of contemplation and seclusion
* Scholars and philosophers, like Simone Weil and Blaise Pascal, who seek to ground spiritual conviction in a rational certitude.Strong, deep, and enduring, the selections in this illuminating anthology remind us that “the unexamined life is not worth living” and speak to us with an immediacy that transcends time and space.

Meeting Place (Reprinted)
$22.50Set along the rugged coastline of 18th century Canada in what was then called Acadia (now Nova Scotia and New Brunswick), The Meeting Place re-creates a world that was home to native Indians, French settlers, and English garrisons. Such diverse populations did not live in accord, however. Instead, they were isolated within their own groups by a brewing political tension under the difficult English rule.
Amid such chaotic times two women, both about to become brides and both trying to live lives of quiet peace, meet in a lush field of wildflowers. Louisa, a Frenchwoman, and Catherine, who is English, continue to meet secretly through the seasons, sharing both friendship and growing faith.
The outside world does not mirror their own tranquil happiness, and the dreaded crackdown by the English throne threatens far more than their growing bond. In the face of a heart-wrenching dilemma, Louisa and Catherine strive to maintain their faith and cling to their dreams of family and home.

Inheriting Paradise : Meditations On Gardening
$15.50The garden is a personal place of retreat and delight and labor for many people. Gardening helps us collect ourselves, much as praying does. For rich and poor – it makes no difference – a garden is a place where body and soul are in harmony.
In Inheriting Paradise Vigen Guroian offers an abundant vision of the spiritual life found in the cultivation of God’s good creation. Capturing the earthiness and sacramental character of the Christian faith, these uplifting meditations bring together the experience of space and time through the cycle of the seasons in the garden and relate this fundamental human experience to the cycle of the church year and the Christian seasons of grace.The tilling of fresh earth; the sowing of seeds; the harvesting of rhubarb and roses, dillweed and daffodils – Guroian finds in the garden our most concrete connection with life and God’s gracious giving. His personal reflections on this connection, complemented here by delicate woodcut illustrations, offer a compelling entry into Christian spirituality.

Fuego Vivo Viento Fresco – (Spanish)
$9.99The times are urgent, God is on the move, now is the moment to ask God to ignite his fire in your soul!
Jim Cymbala believes that Jesus wants nothing more than to renew and revive his people to call us back from spiritual dead ends that lead only to apathy and lukewarm religion.
As pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, one of America’s most remarkable churches, he knows firsthand the transforming power of God’s love – strong enough to convert prostitutes, pimps, drug addicts, homeless people, and transvestites. Strong enough to draw professional men and women, blacks, whites, and Hispanics together in worship. Strong enough to rekindle our own dull hearts and flagging spirits.
Twenty-five years ago, the Brooklyn Tabernacle could barely draw twenty people to a Sunday service. Today it is six thousand strong, a testament of what God can do when men and women begin to pour out their hearts to God.
The story of what has happened to a broken-down church in one of America’s meanest neighborhoods points the way to a new spiritual vitality in the church and in your own life. But don’t look in this book for faddish techniques – you wont’ find them. And while the Tabernacle today has an interracial membership and world-renowned choir, don’t look for an emphasis on cross culturalism, numbers, or well-orchestrates worship music.
Instead look for what God can do when a handful of people humble themselves and take the Gospel seriously. When believers turn to their last and only recourse – their knees – and discover there the life-changing reality of the Holy Spirit.
Whether you’re a pastor or a layperson, if you’re hungry for more of God, this book will break your heart and restore your passion.

Light And Death
$19.99Begun in 1994, The Atlanta Study is the first comprehensive investigation of its kind into near-death experiences (NDEs). The study’s name hardly captures what lies behind it: life-and-death dramas played out in operating rooms and hospital beds–and simultaneous events unseen by medical personnel but reported with astonishing clarity and conviction by nearly 50 individuals who returned from death’s door. Now the founder of The Atlanta Study, Dr. Michael Sabom reveals their impact on the people who have experienced them. From both medical and personal perspectives, he shares the electrifying stories of men and women from all walks of life and religious persuasions. He explores the clinical effect of the NDE on survival and healing and discloses surprising findings. He questions some common conclusions about NDEs. And he scrutinizes near-death experiences in the light of what the Bible has to say about death and dying, the realities of light and darkness, and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

My Souls Been Anchored
$19.99Rev. Beecher Hicks Jr. knows that great preaching and great storytelling go hand in hand. He believes in the power of imagination to teach us about God and about life, and he knows that nothing can spark the imagination like a story well told. In My Soul’s Been Anchored, he presents vivid portrayals of the biblical truth shining through people he has known and experiences he has had.
Family, friends, church members, neighbors. . .well-loved faces peer from these pages. In their warm humanity they illustrate simple, profound lessons that touch us all. You’ll meet “Uncle Mugga,” a woman poor in money but rich in love for neighborhood children. Reverend Jones, whose dentures flew out over the pupil in mid-prayer. Mother Jackson, everybody’s mother at Second Baptist Church. Wilson McCray, who ran his shoes off praising God. Each person is a unique, creative snapshot — sometimes funny, sometimes poignant — of a living faith that helps us overcome obstacles, love God and each other more effectively, and make this world a better place.
Dr. Hicks’ stories read the way his sermons preach — full of life, feeling, and beauty. My Soul’s Been Anchored captures in print the oral tradition of the great African-American preachers — the cadences, the rhythms, the passion, the urgency. And the vision. Dr. Hicks says, “This is a time to rise above our limitations and set our sights on those things that the world believes are beyond us.” He encourages us to reach for purpose, to put our faith in motion, to never give up on our potential or God’s promises. Here is storytelling at its finest from a gifted writer and preacher, with universal truths that speak to every culture.

C S Lewis A Print On Demand Title
$29.99A compulsive writer from childhood, C. S. Lewis saw the world primarily through the medium of books. He read voraciously, and his own writing covers a broad range of genres. This timely study of C. S. Lewis casts a unique light on this beloved figure by tracing his development as a reader and a writer of books.
Lionel Adey shows how the two sides of Lewis’s personality, for which Adey adopts the motifs of “the Dreamer” and “the Mentor,” are key to understanding Lewis’s writing in its various modes. Adey describes Lewis’s early development and then devotes a chapter to each kind of writing he attempted: literary history, practical and theoretical criticism, novels for adults and for children, poetry, apologetics, essays and addresses, and letters. Throughout, Adey discusses formative biographical events in Lewis’s life, such as the death of his mother when he was nine years old. Adey concludes with an estimate of Lewis’s achievement and enduring legacy as a writer.

How Good Do We Have To Be
$18.99From the author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People comes an inspiring new bestseller that puts human feelings of guilt and inadequacy in perspective – and teaches us how we can learn to accept ourselves and others even when we and they are less than perfect. How Good Do We Have to Be? is for everyone who experiences that sense of guilt and disappointment. Harold Kushner, writing with his customary generosity and wisdom, shows us how human life is too complex for anyone to live it without making mistakes, and why we need not fear the loss of God’s love when we are less than perfect. Harold Kushner begins by offering a radically new interpretation of the story of Adam and Eve, which he sees as a tale of Paradise Outgrown rather than Paradise Lost: eating from the Tree of Knowledge was not an act of disobedience, but a brave step forward toward becoming human, complete with the richness of work, sexuality and child-rearing, and a sense of our mortality.
Drawing on modern literature, psychology, theology,,and his own thirty years of experience as a congregational rabbi, Harold Kushner reveals how acceptance and forgiveness can change our relationships with the most important people in our lives and help us meet the bold and rewarding challenge of being human.

Subversive Spirituality
$29.9925 Chapters
Additional Info
According to respected pastor, author, and teacher Eugene Peterson, “the Christian life, in one of its main aspects, is a recovery of what was lost in Fall. We happen upon, we notice, we reach out and touch things and ideas, people and events, and among these the Holy Scriptures themselves, that were there all along but that our ego-swollen souls or our sin-blurred eyes quite simply overlooked–sometimes for years and years and years….”In Submissive Spirituality Peterson has gathered together a host of writings penned over the past twenty-five years that reflect on the overlooked facets of the spiritual life. Comprising occasional pieces, short biblical studies, poetry, pastoral readings, and interviews, this work captures the epiphanies of life with the pleasing pastoral style and inspiring depth of insight for which Peterson is well known.
Freshly phrased and refreshingly honest, these reflections will–as do all of Peterson’s writings–help lead readers into a deeper understanding of the spiritual meaning of the Christian life.

Spellbinders Gift
$18.00In his long and successful career as an agent to many of the most famous and dynamic motivational speakers in the world, Bart Manning had no peer. But when a series of misfortunes silenced the voices of his star clients, he happily retired. He’d had his last innings, and with his lovely wife, Mary, was enjoying his newfound freedom.
So why, one morning, did he find himself headed back to the little office that he had never given up? He didn’t know. But as he sat at his dusty desk, he decided to go back into business. If God had sent him there, Bart told himself, he would wait for His plan to unfold.
Then, at a crowded convention, he found his answer, in the person of a handsome young man named Patrick Donne, whose deep, commanding voice spoke words of profound wisdom that electrified the audience. With the thrill of discovery, Bart recognized Donne’s short speech as the best inspirational talk he had ever heard. Bart was soon caught up in the extraordinary realm that was Patrick’s ordinary world, where even tragedy and sorrow became transforming experiences and remarkable things happened. . . .

Out Of The Garden
$19.00As the one work that has held moral and religious sway over the Judeo-Christian tradition for thousands of years, the Bible is unsurpassed in world literature. For women, its meaning is particularly complex; traditionally, the Bible has been used to keep women in their place, but it has also been a book of enduring inspiration. Out of the Garden marks a new stage in women’s relations to the Bible: this is the first collection of essays in which women read and respond to the Bible out of pleasure and curiosity–free to explore what is really relevant to women’s lives.
Drawing on their own experiences and interests, Louise Erdrich, Cynthia Ozick, Fay Weldon, Phyllis Trible, Rebecca Goldstein, June Jordan, Ursula K. Le Guin, and twenty-one other writers boldly, imaginatively–and sometimes reproachfully–address the Old Testament stories, characters, and poetry that mean the most to them. Thoughtful, challenging, and playful, these beautifully written essays explore the Bible in fresh new ways. Out of the Garden reclaims the Bible for women and shows readers that the Bible is a source we can return to again and again.

Can we really carry the treasure of the Gospel in the always fragile, sometimes broken clay pots that are our lives?
How do we get through the “night duty,” both literal and figurative, that is inevitable in ministry?
These are among the questions Stuempfle addresses in these reflections on a series of arresting images for public ministry in the church. Among them are such fresh metaphors for ministry as “poets,” “spies,” “stars,” “nightwatchers,” and “thieves.” They are offered as a lens through which pastors and others in church vocations can gain a new perspective on their complex and demanding calling.

Path Through The Sea A Print On Demand Title
$23.99In this frank, instructive, and heartening personal story, Lillian Grissen tells about the severe depression that she herself experienced. Her pain – mental, emotional, and physical pain – was excruciating, and at first she felt hopelessly trapped in it. But with the help of a gifted Christian psychiatrist, Grissen began to stop blaming herself and to confront the core of her problem – her relationship as a child with her mother. Over a period of five long years – also with her husband’s support, her pastor’s compassionate counsel, the right combination of therapy and medication, and God’s gracious strength – Grissen gradually climbed out of the pit of her depression.
One noteworthy feature of this courageous narrative is that is describes honestly (but without bitterness) a very flawed mother- daughter relationship in a Christian family, showing how bad seeds that parents plant in their children can have devastating results years later. Grissen’s story also clearly demonstrates that psychiatry and spiritual counseling are not incompatible but are both needed for the healing of Christians suffering from depression. Her Path through the Sea will engage and encourage many who suffer from depression as well as those who care about them.

Day By Day With C H Spurgeon
$19.99This sourcebook of daily meditations comes from the pen of one of the greatest pulpiteers in the history of the Christian church, and commemorates the anniversary of his death in 1892. Yet, still today, there are more of C. H. Spurgeon’s books in print than almost any other author.

Day by Day is a daily adventure in walking with God, a devotional book with a purpose – to enrich your private meditations and public presentations.

Gifted Hands : The Ben Carson Story (Reprinted)
$19.99Gifted Hands by and about Ben Carson, M.D., is the inspiring story of an inner-city kid with poor grades and little motivation, who, at age thirty-three, became director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins University Hospital. Gifted Hands will transplace you into the operating room to witness surgeries that made headlines around the world, and into the private mind of a compassionate, God-fearing physician who lives to help others. In 1987, Dr. Carson gained worldwide recognition for his part in the first successful separation of Siamese twins joined at the back of the head — an extremely complex and delicate operation that was five months of planning and twenty-two hours of actual surgery, involving a surgical plan that Carson helped initiate. Gifted Hands reveals a man with humility, decency, compassion, courage, and sensitivity who serves as a role model for young people (and everyone else) in need of encouragement to attempt the seemingly impossible and to excel in whatever they attempt. Dr. Carson also describes the key role that his highly intelligent though relatively uneducated mother played in his metamorphosis from an unmotivated ghetto youngster into one of the most respected neurosurgeons in the world.

13. The Ideal Woman (Proverbs 31:29) P. 143Additional Info
A series of insightful and Bible-centered sermons on great (and not so great) women of the Bible from the mind and pen of one of America’s great preachers. Of this series Macartney wrote: “Among the subjects of the sermons in this volume is one of the bad women of the Bible, for no series on women of the Bible would be complete without a sermon on such a character as Delilah, the temptress of Samson.“To preach on these biblical women is to illustrate life in its deepest reality – sometimes base, ignoble, comtemptible and wicked, but often lofty, noble, godlike, and glorious. Like the great men of the Bible, too, the great women of the Bible afford the preacher an unsurpassed opportunity to press home upon the people the claims of Christ as Friend and Redeemer.”
In this series of thirteen sermons, Macartney uses his “sanctified imagination” and bibilcal knowledge to glean lessons from the lives of Ruth, Esther, Rahab, Lot’s Wife, Martha and Mary, Delilah, Abigail, Rachel, Rebekah, The Samaritan Woman, The Shunammite, The Woman with the Issue of Blood, and The Faithful Woman of Proverbs 31.
