Jacks Carousel : Can Love Overcome Deep Prejudice
$50.60
Jack Emerson is proud of his old-fashioned scruples. After retirement in the mid-1980s, his life settles into a peaceful routine centered around carving wooden horses. He thinks nothing can send his life spinning off its comfortable course-until his teenage grandson challenges Jack’s staunch beliefs.
“Granpop, can I live with you?”
Jack Emerson lives by the Ten Commandments and doesn’t think allowing Scott, a teenager, under his roof is part of God’s job description for a widower who is content in retirement. But his grandson is miserable, and Jack loves him. Scott moves in, shrouded in unanswered questions. Who inflicted the wound on Scott’s back? Why won’t he talk about his parents? Who is he afraid of in school and why?
An unexpected romance with a vibrant woman he meets at the Carousel gives Jack a welcome respite from his worries.
Then Scott reveals that he’s gay.
Jack is stunned and repulsed. The boy’s parents are mired in their own problems and are no help for Jack. He feels as though his life is spinning like a merry-go-round out of control. The master craftsman who carves exquisite wooden carousel ponies cannot carve away his family’s problems. Nikolas, his best friend, counsels faith, trust, and patience. But Jack wants resolution now. Scott must change. Surely God does not want Jack to accept the boy’s homosexual lifestyle. Does He? Can love and faith overcome deep-seated prejudice?

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.
