Devotions For Confession
$17.95
Although frequent Confession is meritorious, one can easily become complacent and fall into a routine that diminishes sorrow for sins. This classic compendium provides preparations and thanksgivings to guide you step-by-step through the Confession process to help you develop a firm resolution, make reparation for sins, and become more disposed to receive God’s grace.
Whether you are a recent convert or someone who confesses regularly, this book is for you. Fr. Hubert McEvoy, S.J., breaks open the true purpose of the sacrament and offers practical tips to help you grow in appreciation for God’s abundant mercy.
The preparations and thanksgivings in these pages reveal the many benefits that the practice of frequent Confession provides besides the forgiveness of sins. Fr. McEvoy offers an atmosphere of freshness for each Confession by focusing our attention on themes associated with the rich and varied graces of this powerful sacrament. He explores topics ranging from self-knowledge, compunction, and penance to gratitude, forgiving others, and developing specific virtues.
Through stirring reflections on Scripture, and prayers and meditations from esteemed spiritual authors, you will learn:
– Why “confessions of devotion” are beneficial for your soul
– How Christ’s gift of forgiveness in the sacrament restores peace
– St. Francis de Sales’s advice for avoiding scrupulosity
– How to make a fruitful examination of conscience
– Practical advice and steps on making a good confession
– How to focus on core faults and ways to manage emotions
An extensive index and list of resources are also included, in addition to numerous scriptural passages for further meditation.
Despite our imperfections, Fr. McEvoy shows us how to humbly detest our sins while trusting in God and persevering with confidence and joy. By uniting our hearts more closely to God’s will, he explains, we also grow in charity and help to build up the unity of His Church.

Kingdom Disciples : Heavens Representatives On Earth
$18.40The missing key to Christianity in America
There is a missing key in Christianity today. It is a critical key, and its absence has led to weak believers, disintegrating families, ineffective churches, and a decaying culture. Without the full use of this key, we lack the tools needed to fully live as heaven’s representatives on earth.
That missing key is discipleship. In Kingdom Disciples, Tony Evans outlines a simple, actionable definition of discipleship to help the church fulfill its calling. Readers will learn:
*What a disciple essentially is
*What a disciple cares about
*How to be a disciple and make disciples
*What discipleship looks like in community
*What the impact of discipleship on the world should beKingdom disciples are short supply, and the results are legions of powerless Christians attending powerless churches, resulting in a powerless presence in the world. The power, authority, abundance, victory, and impact God has promised will only come about when we understand and align ourselves with His definition of discipleship.
It is the goal of this book Kingdom Disciples to call believers and churches back to our primary, divinely ordained responsibility to be disciples and make disciples. Only when we take seriously this assignment will the world see heaven at work on earth. Will you accept the assignment?
Useful for base material in a course on discipleship.

Case For Christ (Revised)
$19.99Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.
Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it’s not fiction. It’s a riveting quest for the truth about history’s most compelling figure.
The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book’s impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.
