When The Fairy Dust Settles

If you’ve ever struggled to reconcile childhood dreams with reality, you’re not alone. Now national radio talk show host Janet Parshall and her daughter take on the myths of youth and place them squarely against the concerns every woman faces. With candid insights-whether agreeing or respectfully disagreeing-mother and daughter set their sights on issues both lighthearted and serious. Discover why real life often is the best story as Janet and Sarah answer your questions on:
*Beauty-What the world considers beautiful is very different from God’s vision of our self-worth. Where do short skirts and plastic surgery fit in?
*Perfectionism-The fairy-tale view of life leads to sure frustration. Can we compare “the perfect life” with the true contentment God wants for us?
*Relationships-Family life is fulfilling and stressful. Must we give up part of ourselves in order to be “good” wives and mothers?
*Sex-The S word is part of our lives. But in what ways does our world differ drastically from the one God envisions for us?Entertaining, engaging, and always thought-provoking, WHEN THE FAIRY DUST SETTLES is an enlightening look at what it really means to live a Christian life in an often complicated world.

Infertility Companion : Hope And Help For Couples Facing Infertility
$19.99A thorough Christian guide to the medical, ethical, emotional, marital, spiritual, and biblical challenges of infertility. Most married couples feel a God-given drive for a child that is the product of their love. Infertility is an emotionally painful experience of unfulfilled longings and the death of dreams. Couples experience a grief cycle within a grief cycle, with monthly hope and despair falling inside the larger picture of loss. Infertile couples are second only to cancer patients in what they are willing to endure for a cure. The Infertility Companion is written in a warm, sometimes even humorous style that incorporates true stories the authors have encountered in their ministry to infertile couples. The authors’ teamwork approach provides a balance of male/female, doctor/patient, and clinical/theological, offering practical perspectives. This guide helps infertile couples use the crisis they are experiencing to strengthen their spiritual lives and their marriage relationship. It reveals the latest medical research and offers an exploration of how the Bible guides us through underlying principles such as the sanctity of life. Although written primarily for the couple, it is also for family members, support groups, pastors, and therapists. Questions at the end of each chapter and in the workbook section at the back of the book can be used by couples or groups.

Your God Is Too Small
$22.00In Your God Is Too Small, J. B. Phillips explains that the trouble facing many of us today is that we have not found a God big enough for our modern needs. In a world where our experience of life has grown in myriad directions, and our mental horizons have been expanded to the point of bewilderment by world events and scientific discoveries, our ideas of God have remained largely static. It is nearly impossible, Phillips argues, for an adult to worship the conception of God that exists in the mind of a child of Sunday-school age, the “God-in-a-box” notion, limiting God to such inadequate conceptions as “Resident Policeman,” “Grand Old Man,” “Meek-and-Mild,” and “Managing Director.” As a result of these insufficient ideas of God, many people live with an inner dissatisfaction, without any faith at all.
Your God Is Too Small explores the ways in which we can find a truly meaningful and constructive God for ourselves, big enough to account for our current experience of life and big enough to command our highest admiration and respect.

Hard To Believe Workbook (Workbook)
$19.99The popular perception of Jesus Christ is that of a tempered, genteel man who walked the earth, offering nuggets of wisdom to His followers. But what we sometimes fail to recognize is that although Jesus Christ offered a message of forgiveness, He also spoke challenging, demanding words about what being follower of Christ requires. In contrast to the superficiality of much modern Bible teaching, Dr. John MacArthur uncovers in this workbook the unvarnished truth of what Christ really taught. In simple, compelling terms, he spells out what is required of those who would follow Him. With provocative questions and exercises, he leads readers to a full understanding of the call of Christ.

Chapters focus on the different aspects of power in the Lord’s name, such as “Healing in the Name” and “Salvation in the Name.”

Murder Of Jesus
$15.99The pieces are in place. The curtain rises for the final act. God is about to die. To many, the story of Christ’s crucifixion has become so familiar that it has lost its ability to shock, outrage, or stir any great emotion. In The Murder of Jesus, John MacArthur presents this pivotal moment in the life of Jesus in a way that forces readers to witness this event in all its power. The passion of Christ is examined chronologically through the lens of the New Testament with special attention given to Jesus’ words on the cross, the miracle that attended the crucifixion, and the significance of Christ’s atoning work. In doing so, MacArthur relives the most awesome injustice in the history of man and the unparalleled triumph of the sovereignty of God.

Little Lamb Who Made Thee
$18.99The stories, essays, prayers, and poems in Little Lamb, Who Made Thee? continue the themes that the author began in Ragman and Other Cries of Faith and Miz Lil and the Chronicles of Grace. This volume portrays children, teenagers, adults, and parents as they grapple with the deep realities of life. At the heart of this struggle are the vital relationships we have with families, for it is from our parents_and from our children_that we most profoundly learn about ourselves as children of God. In the first section, Wangerin reminisces about his own childhood, and with the eyes of a child he helps us see the wonder and fullness of life. In the second section, he writes obout what it is like to be a pastor to parents and children alike, and as a young parent to his own children. Sage advice and joyful humor are couched in vivid stories_warm and intimate, raucous and chilling_that are Wangerin’s trademark. Finally, the book concludes with touching stories of adult children of aging parents_that sometimes sad, sometimes joyous time when children must become parents to their own parents. Far from being a how-to book or a manual, Little Lamb gets inside its subject to view parenthood and childhood as the great miracle and mystery that it is. This new, updated edition contains twelve all-new, never-before-published stories, making it the definitive edition of Little Lamb, Who Made Thee?

Loving God Up Close
$45.71Who is the Holy Spirit? How do Christians track His comings and goings? And how can they realize His presence in their lives? In this book, Calvin Miller reminds believers of the power of the Holy Spirit and explores the six symbols of His presence: the cleansing wind; the purging fire; the dove (the descending presence); the gift of communication; the refreshing wine; and the counselor. While many have experienced one or more of the defining presences, many also disagree as to their authenticity. Now, in this insightful book, Miller seeks to relieve some of the mystery surrounding the Holy Spirit and encourages readers to simply make use of his loving guidance.

Faith And Fragmentation
$40.00In this classic reissue, scholar, pastor, and author J. Philip Wogaman addresses “people who wonder whether Christian Faith makes sense in light of the sweeping changes of our age,” changes that have created at the same time a pluralistic world, a technologically sophisticated world, a dangerous world, a world of great prosperity, and yet great suffering. What are we to make of this time we live in? Can the Christian faith really provide a stable foundation? Wogaman wrestles with these and other questions as he investigates the true meaning of a Christian faith with a positive understanding of religious pluralism and a rejection of fanaticism. He concludes that this faith is a “hopeful love” that proclaims the centrality of love against selfishness and the power of hope against despair.

Ireland, independent and strong-minded, has an entrepreneurial drive coupled with the desire to break free of the skewed standards of the modeling business, that gave her the impetus she needed to start her own company.

Godawful : Connections Between Biblical Journeys And Life Transitions
$21.18Whether it’s leaving home, having children, losing a parent, or retiring, we spend much of our lives passing through transitions — and it is often very stressful to cope with changing circumstances, as we feel lost, confused, and depressed, sometimes even wondering “Where is God in all of this?”
The scriptures offer valuable guidance for navigating these difficult passages. Andre Papineau suggests that if we think of biblical journey stories (such as the Prodigal Son or Jonah’s journey to Nineveh) as accounts of life transitions, we can begin to understand the profound spirituality of our own transitions — no matter how “godawful” the experiences may seem.
By viewing transitional experiences and journey stories through a common lens, this enlightening book provides abundant insight into both the scriptures and the human condition, helping us to see how the hand of God, yes even “Godawful,” is at work in our everyday lives. Each chapter includes helpful exercises and discussion questions, making it an ideal individual or group study resource.

Building Character
$16.18Are we facing a moral crisis in today’s world? Perhaps so, judging by the daily headlines that parade the ethical failings of numerous public figures before us. It seems that more traditional role models, whether in the worlds of business, government, sports, or sadly, even the ministry, than ever are disappointing us and falling short of expectations and fostering cynicism rather than idealism. But these lapses are hardly limited to well-known people. Many surveys have made us aware of a cavalier approach to values in general, such as rampant cheating from term papers to tax returns.
So how can we arrest this decline and instill a greater sense of “character” in our lives? “Character” is an elusive term, but we usually use it to describe the quality of a person’s inner being — their “moral fiber.” In this insightful set of meditations, E. Dale Click suggests that the way to develop character is to put God at the center of our lives. And, he points out, the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes provide us with the blueprints to enjoying life. These essays illustrate that the timeless yet timely guides to living in God’s laws (the commandments) and his declarations (the beatitudes) exemplify all the admirable characteristics of the godly, character-filled life.

Do You Think Im Beautiful Bible Study And Journal
$17.99So many women today grapple with body image. Teenage girls starve themselves because they think they are fat. Older women explore the world of plastic surgery, desperately trying to turn back the clock. But more unfortunate is the woman suffering from poor soul image_the woman who can’t see herself as beautiful even on the inside. “Do you think I’m beautiful?” is an emotionally and spiritually charged question. But it is one that Angela Thomas believes is universal to all women_whether they adamantly deny it or announce it each time they enter a room. Until a woman gives herself permission to ask this question, and until she asks the only One who can ultimately answer it, fulfillment will be elusive. This workbook allows readers to apply the lessons Angela has learned on her own feminine journey, as she asked this question, searching for an answer in all the wrong places. Excerpts from the book are paired with in-depth Bible study questions and ample space for recording thoughts and responses.

Break Through Prayer
$18.99Prayer is an essential part of the devoted Christian’s life, Cymbala (Fresh Faith) reminds readers, and the Bible sets forth numerous examples of faithful men and women who prayed constantly. In this inspirational guidebook for committed Christians, the author, the pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, writes that he has seen the power and comfort of prayer not only in the Bible but in his own life, as well as in the lives of his church members, many of whom were personally affected by the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Cymbala assures that God wants to hear and answer people’s prayers, and thus people should pray with “certainty” and with “confidence.” He gives guidelines for making effective prayers, and suggests that only supplicants who abide by “God’s spiritual laws” can expect to have their prayers answered. “An unforgiving spirit, bitterness, secret, sexual sins,” he writes, “can stymie our praying.” (This is the reason, he says, that he once refused to pray for a man in his Tabernacle-because he lived “in fornication” with his girlfriend.) Cymbala focuses largely on how to use prayer to become filled with joy and to cast away worries or fears, and he spends much of the book explaining how a life of faithful prayer can result in deep, lasting inner peace. Spiced with lively anecdotes-the heroin addict who found God; the disaffected young man who became a soapbox preacher-and punctuated with pullout quotations, Cymbala’s impassioned message should bring encouragement to the Christian faithful.

Little Pot Of Oil
$11.00Running on Empty? The Holy Spirit’s empowerment comes when we step into the forward motion of God’s love flowing through us-not backwards into our comfortable shell!
A time comes when we just don’t have anything left over to give. We run out of faith, energy, strength, patience, options, peace, joy, ideas, and even love. So when God’s call comes knocking and our resources seem thin, we tend to hole up and hide from the needs of others. But that’s exactly when God’s greatest blessing is within a single step, according to Jill Briscoe. He’s asking us to obey, senseless as it may seem.
God has given us what we need to fill up when we run low. It’s the incredible gift of Himself. In this engaging book, Jill Briscoe guides you to a source of ample sustenance. Even as you empty yourself, the Holy Spirit will fill you. And in giving yourself away, you will find life.

Rumors Of Another World
$22.99What on earth are we missing? Philip Yancey believes we are missing the supernatural hidden in everyday life. In Rumors of Another World, Yancey investigates the natural world and discovers the supernatural hiding in plain view. He grapples with why God made the world and what our role truly is, and seeks to answer the question, “How do I live in the natural world while expressing the values of the supernatural?” Philip writes, “I have come to understand faith as the highest form of integrated encounter. Faith puts together, assembles, re-orders, accepting the entire world as God’s handiwork. We live among clues, like rescuers sifting through pieces of stained glass shattered by a bomb, and only with a blueprint or some memory of original design can we begin to connect the shards, to assemble them into a pattern that makes sense of our world. “Nature and supernature are not two separate worlds, but different expressions of the same reality. To encounter the world as a whole, we need a more supernatural awareness of the natural world.” Yancey invites readers to join him on a journey of discovery. He challenges us to tune into “rumors of another world,” and connect the seen with the unseen. He promises that the grace-filled result will be a life of beauty, purpose, freedom, and faith.
