When Jesus Became God
$19.99A thoroughly researched and vivid re-creation of one of the most critical periods in the history of Western religion
The life of Jesus, and the subsequent persecution of Christians during the Roman Empire, have come to define what many of us know about early Christianity. The fervent debate, civil strife, and bloody riots within the Christian community as it was forming, however, is a story that is rarely told. Richard E. Rubenstein takes readers to the streets of the Roman Empire during the fourth century, where a divisive argument over the divinity of Jesus Christ was underway. Ruled by a Christian emperor, followers of Jesus no longer feared for the survival of their monotheistic faith, but they found themselves in different camps-led by two charismatic men-on the topic of Christian theology. Arius, an Alexandrian priest and poet, preached that Jesus, though holy, is less than God, while Athanasius, a brilliant and violent bishop, saw any diminution of Jesus’ godhead as the work of the devil. Between them stood Alexander, the powerful Bishop of Alexandria, in search of a solution that would keep the empire united and the Christian faith alive.

Forgiving The Dead Man Walking
$18.99A true, first-person account of the victim who survived the crimes committed by the rapist and killer made famous in the movie Dead Man Walking. Debbie Morris takes readers beyond the story of those crimes and into the journey of her faith as she wrestles with the question all of us face at some point in life: Is there any crime, any hurt, any person beyond the power of forgiveness?
It was just another time of enjoying milkshakes and small talk. Neither Debbie Cuevas nor her boyfriend, Mark Brewster, gave much thought to the white pickup truck that had pulled up beside them on the riverfront. Until a revolver thrust through the driver’s window a hand jerked Debbie’s head back and a voice said, “Don’t do anything stupid” and a quiet Friday evening abruptly became a nightmare. In the hours that followed, Debbie would experience atrocities too monstrous to conceive. Kidnapping, rape, torture, attempted murder these words cannot convey the horrors that would continue to poison her life long after her captors had been brought to justice. For the first time, here is the untold other half of Dead Man Walking, the movie that depicted killer Robert Willie’s death row relationship with spiritual advisor Helen Prejean. Now the woman whose testimony helped send Willie to the electric chair tells her side of the story – the side America hasn’t heard.
In gripping detail, Debbie Morris – formerly Debbie Cuevas – recounts her hours of terror and years of walking an agonizing road to wholeness. In this stunning, true story, she details a personal struggle far more difficult, and ultimately more amazing, than her remarkable survival of the crimes committed against her. Forgiving the Dead man Walking is a pulls no punches read, so riveting it practically turns the pages for you. More than that, though, it’s an incredible tale of courage, faith, and forgiveness. In a world where all of us struggle sooner or later with unforgiveness, Debbie Morris is a living testimony to the grace we long for: grace that shines more brightly than we dare to believe, bright enough to triumph over the darkest evil. In the face of today’s ongoing death penalty debate, Debbie offers wisdom qualified by an experience most of us thankfully will never know. She offers no answers she herself has not yet arrived at. Rather, she challenges us all to consider whether it is justice we truly require, or something more powerful that alone can heal the wounds of the unforgivable.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Self Esteem : Gift From God
$20.29Improved self-esteem leads to a true evaluation and acceptance of others and ourselves. Ward challenges people to discover their uniqueness and to enjoy who they are. She encourages them to discover their God-designed temperament/type in order to arrive at healthy self-esteem and self-worth. This self-acceptance automatically raises the level of understanding and lowers tension in every arena and age of life, making it “fun” to celebrate differences rather than feel obligated to think and function according to another’s dictates.
Self-Esteem: Gift from God answers our questions regarding the differences in people by using quizzes and real-life examples sprinkled with humor. Readers will painlessly and proudly discover that their personal preferences, though perhaps very different, are normal and “ok.” Encouragement to join hands with God by using our special gifts to improve our spiritual confidences forms the foundation of Self-Esteem.
Ideal for Bible study and self-esteem groups, each chapter ends with a prayer for further contemplation and discussion.

Breakfast With God 2
$8.55This big, bright series takes daily Bible reading to a new, funkier, and much more relevant level. Daily Bible study is still popular with active Christians (about half a million of them), and there are various products on the market, but none that really appeal to the younger, trendy Christian scene. Breakfast with God, with its bright and exciting design, should exactly hit the spot. With the breakfast theme running through, each page will have: Orange Juice: a short Bible passage – The Big Breakfast: for those with 15 minutes to spend – The Continental Breakfast: if you’re in a rush or want to add to the longer study – Coffee: a short prayer or idea to think on. The content will be as relevant to young Christians as is the design. This resource is biblical, but also addresses their concerns, and helps them build a spiritual framework in order to live their lives with integrity. The authors speak the language of their audience: Duncan Banks (Christians in Sport), Rozi Stirling (National Youth Officer for Northern Ireland’s Presbyterian Church), Gerard Kelly (Generation X expert), Simon Hall (REVIVE). This is the second in a series, with 120 readings per book. Three will be published in the first year. The books will be aimed at the twenties and early thirties (but will no doubt also be picked up by those who are younger).

Malina and Pilch demonstrate the necessity of taking ancient sky-interpretation seriously for reading the book of Revelation in its first-century context.

Joshua And The Shepherd
$15.99JOSHUA AND THE SHEPHERD
A GENTLEMAN NAMED JOSHUA AND A SIMPLE MESSAGE THAT COULD REVOLUTIONIZE THE CHURCH…
It is the end of a bitter cold winter. A crowd of people files into a cathedral to celebrate the consecration of a new bishop-a good man, they think, strict in doctrine but capable of compassion. A man of tradition, not of reform. A ‘company man.’ His name is David Campbell.
And sitting in the last pew of the cathedral is a clean-shaven man of ordinary build, with gentle hazel eyes. His name is Joshua.
Within twenty-four hours of his first encounter with Joshua, David Campbell will propose the most far-reaching reforms in a millennium, reforms to destroy sectarian barriers, reforms to change the direction of the church, reforms to return Christianity to its founders with a simple message. With Joshua as his mentor, David Campbell-the Shepherd-preaches to Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, and Jews of the universal truth of God’s love. It is a message that changes everyone it touches. And no one who reads Joshua and the Shepherd will ever forget it.

Description
Recent years have seen a meteoric rise in the power and importance of organized religion in many parts of the world. Although violence is often perpetrated in the name of religion, history shows that religious people have played a critical role in peacemaking within numerous cultures. In the next century, will religion provide human civilization with methods of care, healing, and the creation of peaceful societies?
In this groundbreaking book, Marc Gopin attempts to integrate the study of religion with the study of conflict resolution. He argues that religion can play a critical role in constructing a global community of shared moral commitments and vision–a community that can limit conflict to its nonviolent, constructive variety. If we examine religious myths and moral traditions, Gopin argues, we can understand why and when religious people come to violence, and why and when they become staunch peacemakers. This innovative and carefully argued study also offers a broad set of recommendations for policy planners both inside and outside of government. Features

Soul Freedom : Baptist Battle Cry
$19.11The Baptist tradition stands in great peril of losing the cherished principles of the free exercise of religion, the freedom from political interference with faith, and the right of self-determination in all matters related to religion.
The authors discuss the importance of the Bible in the Baptist faith and the responsibility of people for their actions regarding church, family, and beliefs. Our relationship with God is an individual responsibility. It is God to whom we are ultimately responsible. Soul freedom, all freedom, and responsibility is God’s supreme gift to humanity. The dignity and respect afforded to persons comes from God as revealed in Scripture.
Soul Freedom is composed of a series of essays that examine considerably controversial issues. This book comes at a time when the Baptist commitment to soul freedom feeds the deeper hunger of the hearts of millions of persons seeking authenticity in religion
