Holy E Mail Cycle A
$16.18Many modern Christians yearn for a deeper spiritual life, a relevant relationship with a God who still matters and who thinks we still matter. However, Dallas Brauninger tells us, we are not good at listening and talking with God. What we are good at is hurling questions at the Almighty — and Brauninger says that questions are what we are all about if we are to continue to grow spiritually. And so is confession. We doubt. We fear. We stretch to the limits of our patience. We wonder if tenacity will prevail or if we will sink. We have moments of bliss and ponder anew the mystery of God. We wonder and grieve about the world.
Brauninger believes that question and confession are two forms of our prayer — and for many of us, these conversations with God are as brief and instant as an e-mail. In Holy E-Mail, she inventively casts fourteen sermons based on Cycle A lectionary epistle texts in the form of extended e-mail messages to God. It’s as if congregations and pastors were privy to someone’s private ponderings that reflect our own spiritual roaming.
This volume is not only a creative resource for preachers; it’s also directed to the everyday person in the pew. Crafted to help hearers connect with God and each other, these sermons address universal queries of the human soul. By uniting sermon with prayer, they’re excellent for use as readings for personal meditation.

Tears Of Sadness Tears Of Gladness Cycle A
$17.43Albert Butzer believes that “sermons should speak to the real and immediate lives of the listeners and be grounded in the everyday events of their lives.” This collection of sermons for Lent and Easter based on gospel texts definitely achieved that goal: Butzer’s messages consistently and creatively deliver a ringing proclamation of the good news. They are outstanding examples of the homiletical art that bring together several elements of the classic sermon: biblical text, theological tradition, life of the world, life and experience of a particular congregation, and faith and experience of the preacher.

Lets Get Committed Cycle A
$16.18People seem dazzled by the world’s glitter of false grandeur and pay little to no attention to the majesty of God. The sparkle of glitter the world offers does nothing but litter the ocean floor of the spirit. A saint’s job is to pay close attention to the security of God’s grandeur — magnitude, creation, mercy, hope, happiness, joy, peace, and life. With God as our ship we can stay afloat for eternity. (from All Saints’ Sunday sermon, “Called To Be Saints”)
Derl Keefer explores the timeless and life-changing truths of the Bible in ten powerful and effective messages based on First Lesson passages from the Revised Common Lectionary. While particularly useful to pastors gleaning ideas for their own preaching, these sermons offer an abundant dose of spiritual power to all who read and digest them.
Sermon titles include:
* Where Are We Without God? — Exodus 33:12-23
* Leaving A Legacy — Deuteronomy 34:1-12
* Reformation To Transformation — Jeremiah 31:31-34
* God’s New Shepherd — Ezekiel 34:11-16, 20-24Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Living On One Days Rations Cycle A
$12.95In eleven thought-provoking sermons based upon texts from Genesis and Exodus, Douglas Bailey highlights events from the lives of Jacob, his son Joseph, and Moses. But these messages are more than simple biblical exegesis – drawing on insights from scholarly research, Bailey demonstrates that the spiritual struggles and faith of Jacob, Joseph, and Moses are very pertinent to vital issues we face in our lives today. For example, Jacob’s “growing pains” make us wonder “What prizes are worth working for?” and “Why does God pick a fight with us and challenge us to a wrestling match?” Similarly, the story of Joseph leads us to ask why genuine forgiveness is truly painful. And sermons reviewing major episodes in the life of Moses raise such questions as “Can we really trust God to come through when the chips are down?” and “Can an affluent society ever accept God’s limited offer of one day’s blessings – one day at a time?” Bailey mines the texts for answers to these timely questions, proving that the ancient texts are still very relevant.

Formed By A Dream Cycle A
$16.18Kristen Borsgard Wee tells us that the scriptures are “endlessly fascinating, constantly surprising, and an unparalleled adventure in God’s interaction with people.” The same might be said of these first-rate sermons based mainly on texts from the Book of Genesis. Readers will discover that Wee has an uncanny ability to place them right in the heart of the lections – experiencing what the biblical characters did while at the same time revealing what God is trying to say to us that can transform our lives. By challenging basic assumptions and raising interesting questions, Wee is able to unveil some of the truths about God and human nature that are embedded in these sacred texts. These messages offer to readers, in the words of Anne Lamott, “a path and a little light to see by.”

Restoring The Future Cycle A
$16.18Drawing upon thoughtfully mined biblical insights and his alert attention to contemporary culture, Rob Elder has crafted sermons that not only disclose some unexpected angles of vision on Lent and Easter, but also serve as models for preaching on neglected and overlooked texts. These are not the usual texts and these are not the expected words for the seasons of Lent and Easter, but it is sometimes what we do not expect to see and hear that delights us most. Robert J. Elder is currently the pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Salem, Oregon.

Long Time Coming Cycle A
$16.18It is not God’s plan to take us by surprise. Throughout scripture there is the rolling thunder of the Deity’s voice resounds: “I’m going to do it! Get ready! Pay close attention! Here comes what I promised!” We call such predictions “prophecy,” history written before it happens. And about nothing is God more prophetic, more predictive, than Jesus Christ. (from the Foreword)
In Long Time Coming! Stephen Crotts proclaims the richness of Jesus’ birth. Noting that the Lord always tells us ahead of time what he is about to do, his 14 sermons based on Old Testament lectionary texts examine how God foretold in Isaiah’s prophetic ministry that he would save and redeem mankind.
Sermon titles include:
* Still Small Voice — Isaiah 11:1-10
* When A Halo Slips — Jeremiah 31:7-14
* What Does Your God Say About People Like Me? — Isaiah 42:1-9
* Let Sleeping Dogmas Awake! — Isaiah 58:1-9a (9b-12)Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

On Human Worth
$40.00This book makes a significant contribution to the contemporary debate about equality and argues that Christian notions of equality are still challengingly relevant in today’s world and in contemporary discussion.A central place is afforded to issues of public policy and economic relationships, since in the author’s view a decent community should affirm and demonstrate a commitment to justice in the way it is structured and in its dealings with its members, particularly the poor, the vulnerable and the excluded. Duncan Forrester’s book is essential reading on a disturbing topic which most of us acknowledge but with which few of us know how to deal. Like the author, I feel guilty every time I see a beggar on the streets or at the door. I know that in God’s sight we are somehow equal, but there is a huge gulf between us. Can it be bridged? What does it require of us? Forrester writes out of a lifetime of wrestling with such questions, and also with passion, clarity, and conviction.’ John W de Gruchy, Professor of Chr

Christ Our Mediator
$41.99A Sovereign Grace Publishers Title
This famous discourse regarding the Mediatorship of Christ forms the greatest part of Volume V of Goodwin’s Works.
Of all the sublime subjects tackled by and opened by Goodwin, this one is among the best known, and most often read. However learned one may be, however near he or she may have drawn to God, these pages will certainly deliver fountains of living water into their souls. it is a legacy left to us by our Savior God, the opening up of heavenly views of the Mediator from the beginning to the end.
In the eternal counsels it was determined and decreed that man should be made, that he should fall, and that certain elect ones should be rescued by a Mediator. For ”all things are of God, the [One] having reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, . . .” (2 Cor. 5:18).
The highest attainment is to see the Gospel in its original, those eternal transactions between God the Father and God the Son for the salvation of man. God the Father contrived the best means to accomplish salvation, which required a full and complete satisfaction for His Justice. The difficulty of devising a way to accomplish this. Christ’s acceptance of the Father’s terms. God agreed to bestow all the blessings Christ would purchase. Why all these are of pure grace. Christ alone was fitted to be the Mediator. First, our Mediator must be God, and God the Son was best fitted to be the Mediator. Yet our Mediator must also be man. Therefore, the Mediator must be both God and man.
How were the Divine and human natures of Christ united. Why Christ must be born of a woman, yet without sin? Christ as Redeemer has repaired all which was lost by the sin of His elect. Why Christ must be emptied of His glory and made of no reputation.
The greatness and super-eminent worth of Christ’s satisfaction. He answered all the demands of the Law. Not only was He willing, but He performed all the parts of the Agreement. What is the meaning of Christ giving Himself for us? Why must Christ be made sin and a curse for us? The sufferings of Christ before His crucifixion. The extremity of the pain Christ endured in His body. Yet the greatest sufferings were of Christ’s soul. The fullness of our justification through faith in Christ.
How the perfect holiness of Christ’s can be imputed to us.
Christ is our great Shepherd, our great High Priest. The privilege of believers to enter Heaven by faith through His high-priesthood.

Witness
$42.99Witness, the third and final volume of McClendon’s Systematic Theology, considers the wider context in which the life of the Christian community takes place. It asserts that the church’s identity is established not only by how it lives and what it teaches but also by how it enters into conversation and connects with systems of thought and social structures outside itself. McClendon continues here his exploration of “the baptist vision,” a tradition of the church’s understanding of itself, its relation to Scripture, and its place in the larger society, which flows from the Radical Reformation of the 16th century.

Life And Teaching Of Jesus Christ

And they did not fail him. The four little books that we call Gospels are our primary and practically our only sources of information about the life and the words that have changed the world. We may wish the story had been told with greater fullness and detail; but we know that, short as it is, it is enough. It has given Christ to every race and age.” (excerpt from Chapter 1: The Making of the Gospels)

Saints Of The Anglican Calendar
$32.00The Saints of the Anglican Calendar introduces us to the 232 men and women who are commemorated in the Common Worship Calendar. Nearly five hundred years after the Reformation, the Church of England is coming to a fuller appreciation of the saints, and their contribution to our spiritual heritage. Medieval accounts of saints’ lives were often marred by confitsion and contradictory oral traditions, the writers’ desire to tell an edifying story, and the exploitation of the commercial opportunities of pilgrim shrines. Embellished with improbable miracles and unlikely legends, these accounts made the saints seem remote and unbelievable figures, but recent theological scholarship has cleared away the accretions of centuries, enabling us to see the saints as real people who faced up to the challenge of living out the Christian faith, often in conditions of great difficulty or danger – and who made mistakes like everyone else. aaThis lively and informative volume presents the experience of men and women from the days of the ea

Sacramental Orders
$29.95Ordained ministry cannot be understood by itself or only in its relationship with Christ. It must find its identity in relationship to the Church, for it exists to serve and build up the Church. In Sacramental Orders Susan Wood places the theology of ordained ministry within its ecclesial foundations, identifying four concepts that shed light on different aspects of ordained ministry and its relationship to the Church: a monarchical and hierarchical concept; a eucharistic, collegial model of ministry representing the communion of particular Churches; the priest, prophet, and king, which structures the concept of the Church as the people of God; and a theology of the Church as a sacrament of Christ and ordained ministry as a sacrament of the Church.
Sacramental Orders is a liturgical and theological study of ordained ministry grounded in the liturgy of the 1990 typical edition of the rites. It addresses the three Orders within the one Sacrament of Order: bishop, presbyter, and deacon. By including each order with this study, the interrelationship between the three becomes more apparent, and the theology of one is allowed to inform the theology of the others. Wood points out that one of the challenges in theologies of ordained ministry today is to distinguish a bishop from a presbyter when both are ordinations to the priesthood and presbyters are assuming a greater ministry of oversight as they pastor more than one parish, and to distinguish deacons from presbyters at a time in church history when deacons are assuming more presbyteral functions.Sacramental Orders also focuses on the mutual reciprocity in the relationship between liturgical rite and the theology of the sacrament as explained in ecclesial documents. The ordination rites reflect the theology expressed by Vatican II and yet also present a theology of the sacrament embedded in the liturgical texts and actions.

Priesthood Of Some Believers
$66.65The author examines the Christian literature of the first three centuries for evidence of the development both of the special priesthood of the ordained and the general priesthood of all believers. He demonstrates that the development of the special priesthood was closely linked to the emerging division between the clergy and the laity, and that these developments harmed the expression of the general priesthood. ‘The Priesthood of Some Believers’ is the only detailed and comprehensive study of the way the development of the special priesthood affected that of the general priesthood.

Presbyterian minister John Witherspoon was a key figure, politically and religiously, in the formative years of the United States. Having come to New Jersey from Scotland to become president of the College of new Jersey (now Princeton University), Witherspoon was caught up in the political currents of the time and ended up as a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Through his preaching, writing, and leadership, Witherspoon made his influence felt well beyond the walls of Princeton.In this fresh account of Witherspoon’s thought, Gordon Tait focuses on Witherspoon’s piety – the way Witherspoon believed that the Christian faith should take visible and practical form in ministry, politics, and everyday obedience and devotion. The Piety of John Witherspoon is filled with photographs from Witherspoon’s life, and Tait’s comprehensive treatment of the piety issue makes a significant contribution to the understanding of Witherspoon’s impact on church, education, and society.

5. Culture: Theology’s Embedding Context
6. The Trinity: Theology’s Structural Motif
7. Community: Theology’s Integrative Motif
8. Eschatology: Theology’s Orienting MotifAdditional Info
What role does scripture play in the task of the church? What value do past theological constructs offer today? How does culture affect theological reflection? For that matter, of all the diverse ways Christian belief is expressed, what makes any of them “Christian”?In Beyond Foundationalism, Stanley Grenz and John Franke move past the foundationalism of the Enlightenment period to offer a revolutionary method for doing theology in a postmodern age. Writing to both mainline and evangelical traditions, they propose a new method that views theology as arising out of the interplay of the Spirit, which speaks authoritatively through the biblical text; tradition, which provides a historical interpretive framework; and culture, which gives context for constructive theological reflection. This method, they argue, fosters a Christian theology that embodies a Trinitarian structure, utilizes the faith community as the organizing principle or integrative motif, and features an eschatological orientation.

Making Room At The Table
$38.001. Biblical Foundations For Multicultural Worship
2. Theological Foundations For Multicultural Worship
3. Toward Multicultural Worship TodayAdditional Info
The table can be an empowering place for building community; after all, it is at meals that families gather, reunions are held, events are celebrated, and stories are shared. To be excluded from the table often reflects the painful fracturing of a community.Making Room at the Table explores the multicultural challenges facing the contemporary church. Using the image of the table as the central metaphor for worship, the writers strive to make worship more relevant to, and inclusive of, groups that have often been excluded – youth, ethnic minorities, and other marginalized people.
Rather than allow multiculturalism to be a dividing ground form the church today, this book seeks to bridge the gaps and unite all people in worship without threatening their personal or cultural uniqueness. Let the table be open, and let the ensuing conversation across the table transform the community.

Rivers Of Paradise Print On Demand Title
$58.99Many of the major religious traditions of the world owe their existence to the vision of ancient founders – historical figures whose charismatic personalities, authoritative teachings, and organizational genius established the enduring faiths we encounter today. The Rivers of Paradise explores the lives of five such founders of world religions, chronicling what is actually known of these fascinating men and introducing readers to the cultural and religious worlds that originally heard their messages.
Carl S. Ehrlich (York University, Toronto) introduces Moses and the development of Judaism, the numerically smallest yet historically oldest world religion. Richard S. Cohen (University of California, San Diego) discusses the life and role of Shakyamuni as the historical founder of Buddhism. Mark Csikszentmihalyi (University of Wisconsin at Madison) explores Confucius the man as well as later portrayals of Confucius the exemplar. Michael J. McClymond (Saint Louis University) examine Jesus through the lens of recent developments in the scholarly “quest for the historical Jesus.” Daniel C. Peterson (Brigham Young University) discusses the life of Muhammad, founder of Islam, the world’s newest and fastest growing religious tradition. The aim of each author is to present each of the great prophetic (personality) religions in terms of its founder, its governing principles and beliefs, and its historical development from the time of its founding up to the present day. Each of these compelling figures is viewed in light of contemporary scholarship and in comparative perspective. Indeed, The Rivers of Paradise is the only recent work to examine all five of these religious founders together.
Accented throughout with informative photographs and illustrations, these superb biographical essays, together with a concluding discussion of Max Weber’s well-known model of religious founders, provide an ideal introduction for teachers, students, and general readers alike.

Unlike the eye of science, poetry sees the deeper meanings that bind seemingly disjointed facts together.

After Paul Left Corinth A Print On Demand Title
$33.99After Paul Left Corinth gathers for the first time all the relevant extant material from literary, nonliterary, and archaeological sources on what life was like in the first-century Roman colony of Corinth. Using this evidence, Bruce Winter not only opens a fascinating vista on day-to-day living in the Graeco-Roman world but, more importantly, helps us understand what happened to the Christian community after Paul left Corinth. As Winter shows, the origin of many of the problems Paul dealt with in 1 Corinthians can be traced to culturally determined responses to aspects of life in Corinth.
The significance of the role that culture played in the life of the Corinthian Christians has either been ignored or underestimated in explaining the reasons for their difficulties after Paul left. Winter first examines the extent to which Paul communicated alternative ways of behaving while he was in Corinth. Winter then explores the social changes that occurred in Corinth after Paul left. Severe grain shortages, the relocation of the Isthmian Games, the introduction of a new federal imperial cult, the withdrawal of kosher meat from the official market_all of these cultural events had a substantial impact on the life of the emerging Christian community.Accentuated with photos of relevant archaeological artifacts, this volume provides a significant new perspective from which to read Paul’s Corinthian correspondence.

Depth Of The Riches
$33.99Religious pluralism is today the most challenging issue facing traditional Christianity. This constructive work by a leading voice on the subjects of religious pluralism and interfaith relations probes the Christian understanding of God and salvation and offers a new perspective on religious pluralism that affirms unique salvation in Christ while also recognizing the religious ends of other faiths.
The questions explored here are both difficult and enlightening. What is the distinctive nature of salvation? Is there a place in Christian theology for recognizing other religious ends in addition to salvation? In pursuit of meaningful answers, S. Mark Heim uses the classical doctrine of the Trinity to develop a theology that allows Christians to respect the possibility that alternative relations with God exist in other religions.

Real Worship : Playground Battleground Or Holy Ground (Reprinted)
$22.35With 50,000 copies sold, the first edition of Real Worship helped many pastors and worship leaders make biblical sense in the controversy surrounding worship and worship styles. This second edition contains new chapters on taking worship seriously, planning balanced worship, and tradition in worship. A question-and-answer section, a bibliography, and a Scripture index have also been added.
While many books deal with how to worship, they fail to give a definition of true worship. Warren Wiersbe defines what worship is and the four elements it involves: wonder, witness, warfare, and wisdom. As he discusses such controversial issues as art, liturgy, worship styles, and music, Wiersbe keeps the focus on God and demonstrates the balance of worship for which every church should strive.
Real Worship is both biblically based and autobiographical, containing personal testimony, anecdotes, and illustrations from Wiersbe’s pastoral experience.
The first edition of this book was published by Thomas Nelson in 1986.

Exodus : Believers Church Bible Commentary
$34.991. The Salvation Of Moses
2. The Commissioning Of Moses
3. Realization Focus On Isreal
4. The Commissioning Of IsraelAdditional Info
To whom does primary allegiance belong? To great human empires, or to the God whose elusive presence we can never fully grasp?Waldemar Janzen offers a fresh approach to the book of Exodus. The liberation from Egypt is a prelude to Israel’s unique calling to model before the nations a new life of service under God.
Through the subtly prepared servant Moses, God wages a dramatic battle with Egypt’s ruler for the release of enslaved Israel. The watching Israel wavers: “Is the Lord among us or not?”
Even after Israel covenants to be God’s priestly kingdom and holy nation, Israel worships a golden calf. Once more God’s brace wrests Israel away, this time from slavery to doubts, fears, and self-centeredness. The people then focus faith on the imageless presence of God in their midst. God still wrestles for his people today.
