Brooklyn Star
$34.98There’s a knock at your door. Two men are waiting for you with briefcases and magazines. By peeking through your window shade, you can tell who they are. They’re Jehovah’s Witnesses, waiting to bring you “good news of Jehovah and His coming kingdom.” What do you do? You could: Tell them, “Thanks, but no thanks,” and shut the door in their faces. Tell them they’re sinners on their way to hell, and shut the door in their faces. Get into a theological argument, get frustrated when they won’t change their minds, and shut the door in their faces. Act as though no one’s home, thereby saving yourself from having to shut the door in their faces. Too many people choose one of the above, and wonder why Witnesses are “so hard to reach.” In Brooklyn Star, you’ll find a better way: E. Open the door and introduce them to the Messiah of Israel, the Lord Jesus Christ. You say you don’t know theology. You say you’ve never read The Watchtower. In Brooklyn Star, you’ll have both at your fingertips. You’ll have an accurate biography of Jesus. You’ll have citations drawn from nearly every major Watchtower publication since its inception. Above all, you’ll have the answers you need for those visitors at your door.

Rejoicing In Lifes Melissa Moments
$19.95What is a “Melissa moment”? I mean those experiences now and then that bring clarity and conviction and assurance in the midst of situations otherwise riddled by ambiguity, ambivalence, confusion, and uncertainty. I mean those bright and shining moments which bring illumination and order into the midst of darkness and chaos. They are those times when we come to know who we are, what we believe, what we trust, and to what we are committed. A “Melissa moment” is any reordering of life that restores equilibrium and perspective, that refreshes and renews, that gets us back on track. (from the sermon “Rejoicing In Life’s ‘Melissa Moments’ “)
In this warm, insightful collection of sermons, eminent theologian Kenneth Cauthen brings the simple clarity of a “Melissa moment” to the complex problems that daily confront us. The book derives its title from an incident where Cauthen’s daughter Melissa sparked a particularly moving epiphany, and it’s an apt description because the messages combine a profound understanding of scripture with poignant stories about real people and their struggles, sufferings, and moral challenges. Though much of Cauthen’s other work is academic in tone, these intensely personal meditations deal with profound moral and theological issues in the context of everyday life. Rejoicing In Life’s “Melissa Moments” affirms our faith and the goodness of God in the face of the modern world’s anxieties, terrors, and threats. It will make you think — but more importantly, it will also touch your heart.

Built By The Owners Design
$18.68Every church needs to reach out and bring in new members in order to remain a living, vital entity — yet there are many different ideas about what is the best way for Christian congregations to foster real growth. In recent years, what has been termed the “Church Growth Movement” (as exemplified in such best-selling books as The Purpose Driven Church and The Habits Of Highly Effective Churches) has come to the forefront with its agenda of meeting felt needs and targeting specific audiences. At the same time, there has been a less-publicized but pointed reaction to what some perceive as the church growth movement’s misdirected zeal. And while the church growth movement has been very successful with new churches, its methods often fall short of satisfying the growth needs of established congregations.
In Built By The Owner’s Design, Danny Von Kanel invites you into the drawing room of the Master Designer to examine His blueprints for evangelism and church growth. Employing the plumb line of God’s Word, he makes it clear that God’s way of growth and outreach is most effective. Von Kanel draws on a careful analysis of more than 50 churches in the Southern Baptist, United Methodist, and Presbyterian (USA) denominations to offer a viable alternative that charts a middle ground between overzealousness and declining attendance, identifying a proven framework that can support lasting growth in diverse situations. Several checklists are included that help you systematically evaluate your own congregation and develop a tailor-made growth plan based on your specific circumstances. Grounded in solid research and Von Kanel’s own experience in several growing ministries, Built By The Owner’s Design is an immensely practical resource that belongs in every pastor’s library.

Sermon Warm Ups
$16.18Could you use an attention-getting introduction to set up a talk or sermon? If so, the brief sketches in this collection are exactly what you need to create living illustrations of scriptural themes that will stick in your audience’s memory.

And they’re effective. Since drama draws on both our visual and auditory senses, it’s a proven vehicle for increasing learning and retention rates. When you want a change of pace that will really make a difference, these scenes are great for use in place of the sermon or for various types of fellowship programs.
Contents include:
* The Inheritance (Ephesians 1:13-14; Mark 6:14-29)

Life Changing Faith For Today
$13.68David Monge believes that many modern Christians no longer think carefully about scripture and tradition, because they don’t believe it is essential to their faith — and, he says, that’s strikingly similar to the prevailing situation which confronted Martin Luther 500 years ago. An excellent introduction for laypersons, Life-Changing Faith For Today examines Luther’s thought to discover how relevant it remains to Christians today — and why it is important to all people of faith, whatever their denominational background. Very simply said, the core of his message is that we do not choose God, but He chooses us. Despite our unworthiness, salvation is ours because God loves us beyond all human comprehension. And that’s why we need to rediscover Martin Luther — since his theology is solidly rooted in both the Bible and human reality, it points us back to a radically authentic Christian faith.

Feasts Of The Kingdom
$21.95Feasts and festivals are a central part of many cultures, and for Christians there is no more important “meal” than Holy Communion, in which we commemorate our liberation through the sacrificial death of Jesus. Yet there are many other occasions in the Bible where Jesus taught his friends and disciples as he ate and drank. In The Feasts Of The Kingdom, Maurice Fetty examines a wide variety of sacred meals in scripture, ranging from the Lord’s supper to banquets in the parables. He connects these occasions to our mealtimes today, where we can develop a sense of community and Christian fellowship that is emblematic of the spiritual feast at the heart of the Church’s worship. With 26 messages included for all seasons of the church year, this volume is an especially valuable source of preaching ideas. But most of all, Fetty’s insights provide sustenance for the soul!
Chapter titles include:
* Faith And Fast-Food Religion (John 6:67-68)
* The Hunger Pangs Of Success (Philippians 2:5-7)
* Breakfast On The Beach (John 21:9, 12)
* The Ultimate Wedding Reception (Revelation 19:9)

Cracking The Corporate Code
$19.95Over the last few decades, advances by African-Americans in the business world have been both impressive and well-documented.

Whether in the form of insensitivity, change-averse corporate cultures, socio-economic factors, or outright racism, African-Americans still face very real obstacles along the path to professional success. To many, these obstacles have seemed insurmountable, and their careers have foundered. But to thousands of others, these challenges have been an invitation to excel, and their accomplishments have been worthy of both praise and emulation. Cracking the Corporate Code delves deeply into the lives and careers of 32 such notable professionals. These are not the men and women usually cited: the high-profile government officials, the legendary civil rights pioneers, or the megastar athletes who have leveraged their on-field success into positions of leadership. The authors have chosen instead to profile individuals who have risen through the ranks of America’s most noteworthy businesses, to the highest echelons of corporate power and influence. In exclusive, eye-opening interviews, these men and women recount their impressive and widely differing career trajectories, revealing what motivated and discouraged them, their sources of support and conflict, and the strategies they developed to excel in organizations like PepsiCo, GE, Merrill Lynch, Kraft, Prudential, Chrysler, and dozens more. Rather than offer these inspiring stories as individual biographies, the authors have identified their common threads, analyzing what they reveal to the reader about: * Reconciling the ambiguities inherent for black professionals in corporate culture * Trusting your own abilities and potential while managing the ever-present issue of race * Overcoming isolation to establish not only your place in the organization but also a voice that will be heard and respected * Reading the unwritten rules and developing the “sixth sense” necessary to play the game *Cultivating and managing the relationships that will be crucial to securing more meaningful and influential positions * Understanding what true power is, how to compete for and acquire it, and how to translate it into substantial leadership Opportunities for success abound for African-Americans.

Would You Still Love Jesus If He Sent You To Hell
$16.86This book is designed to promote thanksgiving and meditation by applying Scriptures to everyday life. It should challenge some of our personal views and thoughts on everyday occurrences.

Don’t be afraid to allow this book to search your soul. Trust God to show you what’s “at the root” and to prove that “life is short, but eternity lasts forever.” Reading this book will light a fire in your soul that you thought was impossible to light. After you’ve finished, ask yourself those really tough questions: “Is Jesus your friend?” “To drink or not to drink?” and of course, “Would you still love Jesus if he sent you to hell?”

Footprints In My Rearview Mirror
$21.86People leave footprints that run through other lives. Sometimes they gradually increase to make a path, which becomes a trail, then a rutted road, a highway, a freeway, and on and on into one’s fading memories. Some of them are but little puffs in the dust or snow, while others are huge craters and ruts in the mud that leave big scars or become great indelible lessons about life as one passes through the world system toward eternity. The people and events mentioned in this book are real and are recorded as accurately as possible. So as not to misrepresent anyone or anything, many unclear parts have been omitted. The Japanese American WWII experience had a heavy impact on the circumstances that shaped the sociological, psychological, and spiritual post-war life of Mr. Oiye. This book is written to illustrate how God chose the author to become a believer and follower of Jesus Christ as his Savior and Lord from the beginning, and how He guarantees that it will not only happen, but He will continue to provide the means to match the circumstance. “Just getting old is a sterile way of life, but growing old gracefully is a God-given gift.”

Journey
$29.98Do you desire freedom from religious bondage? Are you frustrated with rules? The Journey is a true story that chronicles an extraordinary search for the existence of God. The story begins with her ancestors from whom she has received blessings and cursings. She discovers that dark, unseen forces have her under surveillance, watching for an opportune time to bring her into temptation and deception. Her carnal nature falls prey to the influence of ungodly temptations, and she is lured into the world of fleeting pleasure and sin. Seeking relief from her dilemma catapults her into a smorgasbord of erroneous religious groups. As she adheres to the rules and rituals of religion, she realizes that keeping rules does not tame the carnal beast within. She exchanges her life of sin for one of self-righteousness, false humility, and counterfeit Christianity. Family casualties become a byproduct of her journey, and they are left behind in the tumultuous aftermath. Who can rescue her? Only One-Jesus Christ! Discovering the truth, her journey takes a sharp turn. She realizes she has not been following God’s true path, but man’s interpretation of it. She undergoes spiritual surgery that removes the false belief systems she had embraced, and she finds the true freedom that Christ proclaimed: “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.”

Preaching Marks Gospel
$23.68In a classic case of failing to see the forest for the trees, Jensen, a homiletics professor and author of two works on narrative preaching, says that preachers tend to analyze biblical books to glean the slightest bits of exegetical data, yet miss the thrust of the overarching story they try to convey. Jensen contends that preachers get too caught up in an analytical, left-brained mentality that obscures the power and meaning of the good news story.
In these pages Jensen helps us approach Mark’s gospel with eyes wide open rather than with microscope in hand. He treats Mark’s gospel as a narrative whole and challenges preachers to tell the gospel’s story to their congregations. In doing so, Jensen emphasizes the strength of biblical stories. He says that these stories are powerful in and of themselves, that they work without much explanatory help. The problem is that listeners never hear the entire story, because it’s always told to them in bits and pieces.
Jensen’s adaptation of what Robert Alter (author of The Art of Biblical Narrative) calls narrative analogy assumes that “… parallel acts or situations are used to comment on each other in biblical narrative.” In other words, if Mark told story “B” to flesh out the reality of story “A,” then perhaps preachers today can do the same thing in their preaching. Students of Jensen have enthusiastically embraced this approach: “This is great, we never get to hear them (stories) whole!” How did it ever occur to us that we could improve on the story of the Prodigal Son, for example, by reducing it to ideas?

Living In Darkness And Fear
$31.23WILL THERE EVER BE PEACE? As the year 2000 approached, many people were filled with fear, believing the world would end or Jesus would return. Fear and anticipation reached a fevered pitch as the close of 1999 drew nearer. When 2000 came and went uneventfully, life returned to normal. Some people turned away from their faiths and others just fell back into society. On September 11, 2001, we were once again reminded of how vulnerable we are. The loss of life was horrible, but if we look beyond our safe America, we will see darkness and fear covering the entire earth. In the daily news you can see what this world is like. Is there an answer that would make sense of this life and all that’s happening? Will there be better days ahead? Or are things going to get worse? We are being warned to expect more attacks here in the U.S. How can we think of going on with our lives or hoping for a better future for our children?

Marketplace Priest
$19.98In Marketplace Priest, Frank Marinkovich, M.D. presents us two ways to conduct business. There is a way of a career versus the way of holy calling. A career is a self-chosen pursuit. It is based on something rational such as security, necessity, vacation, or parental desire. Maybe it satisfies your need for identity. A holy calling is a destiny that was birthed in the heart of God. A calling awakens you to the reality that your destiny started in eternity first in the mind and heart of God. Do you know God, and has God set you free? Then concurrent with that liberty is a mandate to set the culture free. This culture is the area that you are in: business, law, medicine, the arts, government, the trades, etc. It is of necessity that Scripture exhorts us to wake up. Liberation is our calling, cultural reform our mandate. The method starts with who you are. It starts with the nature of Christ, the Spirit of sonship. This book is a must read for all those involved in the marketplace as it will awaken you to God’s destiny, to bring transformation to you and to your sphere of influence. “If there ever was a timely book, this is one. Here is a medical doctor, Frank Marinkovich, cognizant of the concern of the Lord for our vocational calling. He writes in such a practical manner about the “how to” in taking truth out of the meeting place into the market place. In a very clear and definitive fashion we are challenged to see the workplace as an open door of ministry. It is rare today to find someone other than a church leader with such insights and convictions. This is a must read for every member of the body of Christ who desires to make a difference in the marketplace.” JAMES HAMMAN President, Foundations Ministries “As the Spirit of God continues to awaken and endorse those called to marketplace ministries, many new books will emerge. Some will be filled with inspiration and some simply with information. Frank Marinkovich has eclipsed them both; his book is filled with revelation, and the best part of it all is that he is living it out in his life and in his business.” DENNIS PEACOCKE President, Strategic Christian Services “Dr Frank Marinkovich is certainly qualified to speak about this very important subject. I have personally observed him as he has dealt with the issues of health and life purpose with many people, including my wife and I and many of our staff members. His insight into the marketplace and your purpose in life will encourage you and his passion

Gods Noggin Nudgers
$18.73GOD’S NOGGIN NUDGERS (Those Times God Has to Slap Us Upside the Head to Get Our Attention) GOD’S NOGGIN NUDGERS is a book designed to take a humorous yet “shoot from the hip” approach to a better understanding of some of the lessons God wants us to learn.

Living in a time where most of us want the quick version to just about every facet in life, this book addresses some valuable life lessons without dragging out the point. In fact, most chapters can be read in less than ten minutes. Be assured that the reader will find this book fun to read, enlightening, challenging, and most of all, Christ centered.

Gods People Gods Plan
$24.98When Satan deceived Eve in the Garden of Eden, God’s creation came under the judgment of death. Almighty God came up with a plan for His creation to defeat death. He chose His people and made a covenant (promise) with them. That promise was twofold: to defeat death by way of a Redeemer, and to defeat their enemies by way of a conqueror, the Messiah. Why should we believe the Bible is true? Doesn’t science disprove the biblical creation account? Then why should we believe any Messiah hype? Was the talk of a Messiah a false hope? This book is written for Jews who want to learn the truth about the foundations that bind their faith, beginning with the creation, and how beliefs about our origins should affect our daily lives. Scripture from the Hebrew Bible is included within the text to help make the biblical integration most effective. The author explains why scientific evidence supports biblical creation and a young earth. More importantly, he upholds the accuracy of the biblical messianic prophecies-that God has made a plan for redemption and for conquering the enemies of Israel. When will the Messiah come? Has He come already? Would you know Him?

Harvesting Spiritual Fruit
$16.86Millions of Americans have turned to books on prayer in hopes of attaining God’s favor and wonderful blessings. In Harvesting Spiritual Fruit – Following God’s Path to True Love, Joy and Peace, Jonathan Niemeyer now takes us beyond prayer to Christian living through a practical application of Galatians 5:22, the fruit of the spirit. Mr. Niemeyer contends that God, although He obviously invites us and even instructs us to come before Him in prayer, is also keenly interested in how we live our lives when not praying as well. He maintains that a simple verse of Paul’s letter to the Galatians holds phenomenal promise for those of us who truly employ the fruit of the spirit — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control — in our relationships with God, our spouses, our children, our friends and our neighbors. Faithfully applying the fruit of the spirit to our lives is much easier said than done, but the rewards – pure love, joy and peace — can be everlasting!

God And Ceasar
$21.86God and Caesar: The Biblical Keys to Good Government is an examination of the role of good government. In today’s postmordern society, where the emphasis on absolute truth has waned considerably, such an examination is necessary, particularly if the truth of God’s Word is to be preserved and acted upon. Too often evangelical Christians, including pastors, lay church leaders, and para-church ministers, are uninformed about the proper godly role that civil government plays in our lives, and the influence it can and must have in cultural, social, and civic matters. As a result, evangelials tend to view civil government as the enemy. This is simply not true. Dr. King outlines four basic keys to good government. They are: Establish a solid philosophical foundation based upon a Christian worldview of God and man; Form and understanding of the basic principles of the civil government; Identify the primary public policy areas that are at the center of evangelicals’ belief system. Activate community parctices associated with the various policy issues. Each key is intergrated with the others through the concept of self-government. Rewnal of this concept is critical to the continuation of good government at any level.

Dinahs Story : The Struggles And Triumphs Of Parenting A Child With Prader
$21.86Dinah’s Story documents the life journey of a baby born with Prader-Willi Syndrome, a birth defect not yet identified at the time of her birth. While Dinah’s Story focuses on the unique-and sometimes bizarre-characteristics of PWS, it would benefit any parent, extended family member, or educator who lives with and loves a child or adult with special needs. The combination of faith (Loretta’s faith in God), works (her pragmatic and stubborn approach to finding solutions), and the love that drives them both creates a special environment where miracles happen. Dinah’s Story is one of family and faith, hope and despair, tragedies and triumphs. It’s the story of a baby who was not supposed to survive, but who, at age 47, celebrates life through her love of family and friends, her gift of painting, and her trust in God. You will laugh with the author, cry with her, and share the jubilation that comes with perseverance. And through the eyes of a mother, you will get a glimpse of how our Heavenly Father views His precious creation-Dinah. All proceeds from the sale of Dinah’s Story go to the Dinah Stafford Scholarship Fund at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona.

Gods People Gods Plan
$37.48When Satan deceived Eve in the Garden of Eden, God’s creation came under the judgment of death. Almighty God came up with a plan for His creation to defeat death. He chose His people and made a covenant (promise) with them. That promise was twofold: to defeat death by way of a Redeemer, and to defeat their enemies by way of a conqueror, the Messiah. Why should we believe the Bible is true? Doesn’t science disprove the biblical creation account? Then why should we believe any Messiah hype? Was the talk of a Messiah a false hope? This book is written for Jews who want to learn the truth about the foundations that bind their faith, beginning with the creation, and how beliefs about our origins should affect our daily lives. Scripture from the Hebrew Bible is included within the text to help make the biblical integration most effective. The author explains why scientific evidence supports biblical creation and a young earth. More importantly, he upholds the accuracy of the biblical messianic prophecies-that God has made a plan for redemption and for conquering the enemies of Israel. When will the Messiah come? Has He come already? Would you know Him?
