Case For Miracles
$19.99Add to cartNew York Times bestselling author Lee Strobel trains his investigative sights on the hot-button question: is it really credible to believe God intervenes supernaturally in people’s lives today?
This provocative book starts with an unlikely interview in which America’s foremost skeptic builds a seemingly persuasive case against the miraculous. But then Strobel travels the country to quiz scholars to see whether they can offer solid answers to atheist objections. Along the way, he encounters astounding accounts of healings and other phenomena that simply cannot be explained away by naturalistic causes. The book features the results of exclusive new scientific polling that shows miracle accounts are much more common than people think.
What’s more, Strobel delves into the most controversial question of all: what about miracles that don’t happen? If God can intervene in the world, why doesn’t he do it more often to relieve suffering? Many American Christians are embarrassed by the supernatural, not wanting to look odd or extreme to their neighbors. Yet, The Case for Miracles shows not only that the miraculous is possible, but that God still does intervene in our world in awe-inspiring ways. Here’s a unique book that examines all sides of this issue and comes away with a passionate defense for God’s divine action in lives today.
Also available: The Case for Miracles Spanish edition, kids’ edition, and student edition.

How Do You Kill 11 Million People (Expanded)
$15.99Add to cartBecome an informed, passionate citizen who demands honesty and integrity from our leaders or suffer the consequences of our own ignorance and apathy.
In this updated and expanded New York Times bestselling nonpartisan book, Andy Andrews urges you to believe that seeking and discerning the truth really, really matters and that believing lies is the most dangerous thing you can do. You’ll be challenged to become a more “careful student” of the past, seeking accurate, factual accounts of events and decisions that illuminate choices you face now.
By considering how the Nazi German regime was able to carry out over eleven million institutional killings between 1933 and 1945, Andrews advocates for an informed population that demands honesty and integrity from its leaders and from each other. He includes several key documents written by our Founding Fathers as examples of America’s core principles that present and future leadership should live up to and embrace.
We can no longer measure a leader’s worth by the yardsticks provided by the left or the right. Instead, we must use an unchanging standard: the pure, unvarnished truth.

Beginners Guide To Practicing Scriptural Imagination
$9.99Add to cartWhat is scriptural imagination? The word imagination does not mean the Bible is fantasy or untrue. A scriptural imagination allows us to look at the world through the stories and images of the Bible. As we view our world with scriptural imagination, we enter a continuous process of becoming more Christlike.
In A Beginner’s Guide to Practicing Scriptural Imagination, Kenneth Carter focuses on four scripture passages to give readers an easy entry into the practice of scriptural imagination. Carter advocates reading and reflecting on the biblical texts with a group.
Carter says that almost every situation and problem we face can be addressed by men and women sitting with biblical texts, listening for what God might be saying through those passages. Equally important is taking time to listen attentively to people who are marginalized. As readers practice the spiritual exercises in this book, they will grow as disciples of Jesus who can then transform their world.

Whisper : How To Hear The Voice Of God
$16.99Add to cartThe question isn’t whether God speaks. The question is what does He have to say to you? The New York Times bestselling author of The Circle Maker teaches readers how to listen to God.
The voice that spoke the cosmos into existence is the same voice that parted the Red Sea, and made the sun stand still in the midday sky. One day, this voice will make all things new, but it’s also speaking to you now!
That voice is God’s voice, and what we’ve learned from Scripture is that He often speaks in a whisper. Not to make it difficult to hear Him, but to draw us close.
Many people have a tough time believing God still speaks. Sure, in ancient times and in mysterious ways, God spoke to His people, but is He still speaking now?
Mark Batterson certainly believes so. And he wants to introduce you to the seven love languages of God; each of them unique and entirely divine. Some of them you might suspect but others will surprise you.
By learning to tune in to and decipher each language, you’ll be able to hear His guidance in simple as well as life-altering choices. God is actively speaking through: Scripture, Desires, Doors, Dreams, People, Promptings, and Pain. Batterson gives you the tools you need to unlock each of these languages.
God’s whisper can answer your most burning questions, calm your deepest fears, and fulfill your loftiest dreams.
Discover how simple it is to hear God’s voice in every aspect of your life!

Be Revived : Defeat The Spirit Of Death With The Power Of Life
$16.99Add to cartYou don’t have to grow old. You can live forever.
This book will help you walk in God’s promises of long-lasting health.
The Bible is full of promises related to believers having supernatural youth restored even in their advanced years. Yet few are actually walking in those promises. Instead, a huge percentage of Christians are suffering from some sort of pain, disease, or disorder and are physically and mentally exhausted. Plus, many depend on cosmetic procedures and surgeries to recapture their youthful look.
But what if it were possible to tap into the youth-restoring promises the Bible says are ours? What if these revelations would enable us to run faster, serve stronger, and last longer? What if we could look better than we have in decades without cosmetic surgery and costly procedures?
Katie Souza has found secrets in the Bible that show how we can see these manifestations in every part of our bodies. In this explosive study she gives readers the keys that will enable them to tap into the fountain of youth God promised His people.

Showing : What Pregnancy Tells Us About Being Human
$25.99Add to cartMight pregnancy form women just as much as children?
When we talk about pregnancy, we too often end up talking clinically and sentimentally. Pregnancy is medical details and a whirl of emotions. It is vitamins and baby showers and feelings. But it is so much more.
In Showing, Agnes Howard takes us beyond clinical reductionism and fluffy sentimentality to show us how to take pregnancy seriously as hard but important, God-given work. It is not just a bodily process, she argues, but an active work of care–one that underscores the generosity and mutual dependence we all require in order to live. It is an act of “radical hospitality” that shows us all what it means to be human.
Howard delves into prenatal care literature from the Christian tradition to find images and vocabulary that elevate and honor pregnancy–not only for the benefit of expectant parents, but also their communities and the church. Taking pregnancy seriously does not entail viewing it as a woman’s only role or romanticizing it. Instead, Showing maintains that thinking well about pregnancy can help not only childbearing women but all who surround them understand how to live together more faithfully.

Sacred Chase : Moving From Proximity To Intimacy With God
$18.00Add to cartThere is nothing more important in this life or the one to come than an intimate connection with Jesus. Unfortunately, we have thousands of voices distracting us, and all too often we listen to them. We confuse proximity to God with intimacy with God and are content with a Christian-branded life yet miss out on what we were created for: knowing God intimately.
Sharing the touching story of a demon-possessed man who had every reason to run the other way when he encountered Jesus, Heath Adamson shows us how spiritual hunger can overcome our hopelessness, our shame, and our excuses. He encourages us to pursue God regardless of where we’ve been or where we are, seeing our salvation as a doorway. Once we walk through it, we can discover the love of God in a tangible way.
This book is for anyone who longs for a deeper connection to God, who has felt far from peace and hope, and who needs the assurance that God is both interested in who they are and accepts them.

With heartbreaking and hopeful personal stories, Scripture, and questions for contemplation, she draws you out of fear and into a holy confidence, showing you that the mountain in your path was put there on purpose, so that you could exercise–and grow–your faith.

With All Your Heart
$17.00Add to cartOur hearts are made for unswaying allegiance to a king and a kingdom, a concept that Jesus talked about more than any other.

Their lies about the true king are so subtle and insidious that we rarely recognize them, and we go on living with divided loyalties that stall our spiritual growth, infect our relationships, and hinder our witness.
If you want to find freedom from the forces vying for your heart, let Christine Hoover equip you for the fight. In this approachable yet provocative book, she helps you root out your own misplaced allegiances so that you can live wholly as a subject of the king who made and redeemed you.

Entering The Presence Of God
$16.99Add to cartDeeper Dimensions of Worship and Intimacy
The presence of God is a place of peace, blessing, and provision. Many believers long to find that place and remain there, but they’re not sure how to enter into it. They yearn to come into direct contact with the living God. Others don’t think they need to make a special effort to enter God’s presence. After all, isn’t He with us all the time?
It is true that God is omnipresent, but He is also holy. We must enter His presence according to the biblical pattern He has given us, revealed in the prophetic design of the Old Testament tabernacle and made fully available to us by Christ in the New Testament.
In this book, internationally renowned Bible teacher Derek Prince reveals profound truths to help you effectively enter into God’s holy presence, where you will receive strength, power, and impartation. He explains the spiritual progression that will lead you step-by-step to the throne of grace, where you may hear the voice of God and find rest in His arms.
Entering the Presence of God explores deeper dimensions of worship, as well as deeper intimacy with the heavenly Father, which will transform your relationship with Him. As Derek says, “Most of us come to God for things. We want blessings, we want power, or we want healing. God wants us to come simply for Him.”
God is calling to you to enter into His presence. Will you take the first step toward Him?
“And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13).

Comparison Trap
$14.99Add to cartWhy does jealousy so often get in the way in woman to woman relationships? How can we avoid the comparison trap?
Too often, women hold each other back, bad mouthing and making unflattering comparisons. Social media give extra opportunities for negative comment. Are we trapped in our own battles, or entertained by the wars of other women, to the detriment of our own freedom and well-being? What would happen, asks Helen Roberts, if women ceased to compete and compare? What if we settled our conflicts and resolved instead to champion one another? To celebrate each other’s victories? Helen explores the complexities of female relationships in workplaces, families and friendship circles, using contemporary, historical, personal and biblical examples. She investigates Scripture to see how, through the work of the Holy Spirit, we can cease the all-too-frequent ‘she wars’. She helps us recognize our own destructive tendencies and establish healthy habits which will enable women and their relationships to thrive. This will help us live more confidently as the daughters the Father intends us to be, free from envy or comparison.

Prepare For The Harvest Gods Challenge To The Church Today
$16.99Add to cartA Pamela Christian Ministries Title
If a clarion call was needed to exhort people to prepare themselves for Jesus’ first coming, how much more important is the divine ultimatum for us to prepare for Jesus’ return! Many prophetic voices speak of a great harvest of souls:

*Is your church leadership trained to meet the needs of the culture while effective discipling people who have no understanding of church culture?
*Are you ready to welcome and disciple an influx of people some consider to be the dredges of society into your pristine church environment?
Addressing the critical urgency of the day, this book exhorts the Ekklesia to make this a time of ardent preparation or risk being found as the Church of Laodicea (Rev. 3:14-22).

Exiles On Mission
$19.99Add to cartMany Christians in the West sense that traditional Christian teaching is losing traction in the public square. What does faithful Christian witness look like in a post-Christian culture?
Paul Williams, the CEO of one of the world’s largest and oldest Bible societies, interprets the dissonance Christians often experience while trying to live out their faith in the 21st century.

It shows a clear pathway for fruitful missional engagement for the whole people of God, helping Christians make sense of the world in which they live, more authentically integrate faith with everyday life, and orient all of their efforts within God’s missional purpose for the world.

Thou Shalt Not Be A Jerk

With determination and heart, Cho urges readers to stop vilifying those they disagree with–especially the vulnerable–and asks Christians to follow Jesus and reflect His teachings.

“When we stay in the Scriptures, pray for wisdom, and advocate for the vulnerable, our love for politics, ideology, philosophy, or even theology, stop superseding our love for God and neighbor.”

Multicultural Church : Embracing Unity And Restoration
$12.99Add to cartDespite the progress our country has made in Civil Rights over the past century, Sunday morning is still one of the most segregated times in America. It seems like the only people striving to lead in the area of racial reconciliation are politicians, activists, and celebrities. Pastor Dan Willis wants to know… Where is the church? What can the people of God do to become leaders again and not just be Johnny-come-lately followers? The art of bringing harmony to the masses lies in the love all should see in the church of God. If the church is to make a difference and return to relevance in this world, the only option is multicultural ministry. If leaders are not prepared to minister to this growing culture, then American Christianity is in danger of becoming nonessential to the body of believers. For years, Dan Willis has led a growing, multicuItural Christian community in the suburbs of Chicago. In The Multicultural Church, Dan shares what he has learned, the mistakes he has made, and what can be done to successfully minister to a diverse culture.

Father Friend And Judge
$21.99Add to cartDiscover Prayer as a Supernatural Portal to Spiritual Dimensions!
Many believers’ prayers go unanswered because they never fully enter the spiritual realms that their prayers unlock!
Apostolic leader and author, Robert Henderson, is world-renowned for his bestselling series on The Courts of Heaven. In this new work on prayer, Robert provides Biblical strategies for every believer to unleash the full power of their prayers, and see them answered!
God gave us prayer as more than a religious ritual. In fact, prayer is a supernatural portal through which we encounter God in multiple spiritual dimensions!
In the Gospels, Jesus presented three different dimensions of prayer. Each one is connected to a specific identity of God:
*Father: We encounter God the Father in the Secret Place and Throne of Grace.
*Friend: We take our place as Friends of God when we operate as intercessors.
*Judge: We come before the Judge when we are dealing with an adversary who resists our breakthrough.When Christians learn how to operate in each of these spiritual dimensions, they can align their prayers with God’s will, and release His power for miraculous results!

Is It Soup Yet
$13.99Add to cartFollowing my Grandmother’s old recipe for homemade Chicken soup one day, I began to see similarities in each step to those of the refining process the Holy Spirit was doing in my own life. We, as Christians have been predestined to be transformed into the image of Jesus Christ. It’s a daily work of the Holy Spirit in us that brings it about. The process of dying to self and opening the way for Jesus to live life through us.
I have written this book for the Body of Christ, both those who are new in their faith walk and mature Christians, to encourage, teach and challenge them to open themselves up to the amazing work the Holy Spirit desires to do in our lives.
I have held this revelation in my heart for many years now. But as I look at our world and see the faces of so many who are desperately searching for something to fill the emptiness and loneliness in their hearts, I realize we have what they need in us, Jesus Christ. I believe that in such a time as this, it’s time for the Church, us, to show Jesus to the world as never before.
I have lived, and experienced the events of each page and hope and pray that as you read and study it, you will learn to look at your life’s experiences no longer as just coincidence and evil circumstances of this world but as Spiritual events in the Transformation process.
