Faith For Finances
$15.99Add to cart“My God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19
God is not poverty-stricken, and He does not produce poverty-stricken children. The Bible abounds with promises that God will open the windows of heaven, satisfy us, shower down blessing on us, provide for us, replenish us, and prosper us. Yet, despite all these powerful promises, Christians don’t always know how to receive His provision. Now, from the inspirational writings of E. W. Kenyon and Don Gossett comes a book to help you excellently receive all that God has for you by daring to stand on the promises for financial blessing and success found in God’s Word.

Daily Decrees For Accessing Abundance
$14.99Add to cart“You will decide and decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and the light [of God’s favor] will shine upon your ways.” Job 22:28 AMP
In centuries past, a king would issue a decree from his throne and that decree would become law throughout his kingdom. In the Bible, God operates the same way. The body of Christ must break out of a just-get-by, poverty-ridden mentality if the church is going to win the world to Jesus. There is a life of abundance prosperity, health, and favor available to every believer when they decree the Word of God over their lives. This is what Joshua Fowler calls the “decree dimension,” a level of spiritual dominion that every believer should operate within. In, Fowler invites you to discover the power of Job 22 by entering into a 22-day decree challenge. Learn what decrees are and how they work. Then experience twenty-two specific daily decrees-each with supporting Scripture and a journaling section-that will impact your life and change the world.

Wounded In The Church
$16.99Add to cartBeeson and Hayward, both veteran pastors and leaders of healing and deliverance ministries, have seen firsthand the rise of the “dones”-those who are just done with God thanks to emotional abuse from Spirit-less churches and messed-up leaders. In Wounded in the Church, these authors combine their years of experience to address head-on the elephant in the room: church members and church leaders hurt Christians. All the time.
The long-lasting effects-rejection, shame, despair, loneliness, fear-are not just characteristic of people leaving the church, but of the still-in-church as well. With first-person accounts of hurt and loss, this book is a much-needed redemptive guide for anyone whose wounds, whether new or old, are still painful.Leaders and laypeople both will learn how to leave unhealthy attitudes, patterns, and places, to grieve over abuse, and to hope in God’s real deliverance and His continuing work through true churches that build up, not tear down. Beeson and Hayward conclude with practical advice on how to find a healthy and grounded, if imperfect, church.

Receive Your Miracle Now
$18.99Add to cartJesus brought people into direct contact with the power and authority of God. Every healing and miracle revealed the glory of God and the reality of His kingdom. Jesus gave the disciples authority to exercise this realm of God’s kingdom. He commanded the disciples to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom, to heal the sick, and deliver the oppressed.
Receive Your Miracle Now presents a strong argument for the legitimacy of a Christian healing ministry in today’s church. By studying key passages of Scripture in both the Old and New Testaments, examining the thread of healing throughout church history, and presenting a theological basis for healing and deliverance ministry, Bob Sawvelle demonstrates that through the healing gifts Jesus is glorified, the sick are healed, the oppressed are freed, and God’s kingdom advances in the earth.

Unmasking The Accuser
$16.99Add to cartWhen was the last time a Christian hurt you?
The demonic trio of slander, gossip, and offense has gained huge momentum both in our society and in the church. They ruin marriages, relationships, destroy churches, and discredit those in spiritual leadership. Even worse, instead of fighting them, believers daily aid these spirits. And daily, other believers fall victim. The church’s main problem today is a lack of love, forgiveness, and unity.
Satan’s favorite lie is that spiritual attacks always come from outside-that Christians can’t hurt each other. But when Pastor Kynan Bridges rips the mask off of the accuser, the truth is revealed: Satan’s spirits of slander, gossip, and offense are determined to tear the kingdom apart, and they use believers to do it-leading to bitterness and spiritual disease.
With a careful study of the Word of God, Pastor Kynan shows a way out. In this book, you will learn how to:
*Recognize the devastation of slander
*Identify the satanic nature of gossip
*Avoid the temptation to be hurt and offended
*Release those who have wounded you
*Use love and forgiveness as a powerful weapon to walk in victory over the enemy, the accuser of the brethren. -
Cosmic Initiative : Restoring The Kingdom Igniting The Awakening
$19.99Add to cartJesus never said “Seek first” about any pursuit or purpose except the kingdom of God. But the church has essentially abandoned this central message, so that kingdom realities have become lost to us. Our neglect has been costly, because God’s kingdom on earth; His cosmic initiative; has the authority and power to revolutionize our culture. This transformation occurs first within us and then around us, igniting the world with forgiveness, healings, miracles, righteousness, and peace.The reason most people today do not seek the kingdom is that they have not seen it. Once they truly see it, they seek and follow the remarkable vision they have glimpsed. This is because discovering the kingdom is not just information but an adventure in revelation and transformation.
Well-known speaker and kingdom-seeker Jack Taylor invites us to be reintroduced to the kingdom of God and to experience the recovery of the kingdom gospel leading to kingdom power, kingdom love, and the greatest kingdom harvest the world has ever seen.

Power Principles : The Benefits Of A Wisdom Driven Life
$24.99Add to cartIt has been said that the primary difference between winners and losers is their perspective.
The best chance of real success in business, in government, in the family, in our personal goals-in any realm of life-is to develop a perspective that will enhance and expand upon what we already bring to the table. That unique outlook is a wisdom-driven perspective. Such a viewpoint is rare today because we live in a society that is gorging on information and knowledge while starving for wisdom.
As a businessman and civic leader, Dr. Dale Bronner has been in many challenging places where he has needed to study, test, and apply the principles of wisdom. With the insights he has gleaned in addressing the demands and opportunities of leadership, professional growth, and personal fulfillment, he has helped thousands learn how to realize their maximum capacities.
We don’t really have a leadership problem, a financial problem, a relationship problem, or a problem with any other issue-we ultimately have a wisdom problem. Power Principles guides you into the countless benefits of the wisdom-driven life, demonstrating why wisdom is the “principle thing.”

Greatest Thing In The World
$14.99Add to cartA Timeless Classic
One Sunday evening, D. L. Moody and friends were gathered around a fire. Some guests urged Moody to expound on some portion of Scripture. Being tired after the services of the day, he gruffly told them to ask Henry Drummond, who was also present. After some urging, Drummond finally produced a small New Testament from his hip pocket, opened it to the thirteenth chapter of 1 Corinthians and, without any notes, began to speak on the subject of love. Moody said, “It seemed to me that I had never heard anything so beautiful, and I determined not to rest until I brought Henry Drummond to Northfield to deliver that address. Since then I have requested the principles of my schools to have it read before the students every year.
“Over the decades, this teaching has become one of the best-loved and most inspiring messages on love ever written. Other writings of Drummond in this unique collection include:
The Program of Christianity
The City Without a Church
The Changed Life
Pax Vobiscum (Peace with You)
Eternal LifeThrough this dynamic message, we can experience the beauty of lasting love in all its fullness and learn how to bring God’s peace and joy to those around us

If : Trading Your If Only Regrets For Gods What If Possibilities (Reprinted)
$15.99Add to cartTransform Your If Only Regrets into What If Possibilities
If is a powerful little word. Some people are stuck in “if only,” trudging through lives marked with regret. But God wants us to live lives marked with possibilities, with the “what if” attitude that looks forward to the future with confidence. Why?

With his trademark enthusiasm and contagious joy, Mark Batterson helps readers overcome feelings of guilt, fear, and doubt, because in Christ there is no condemnation.

Case For Christ (Revised)
$19.99Add to cartIs there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.
Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it’s not fiction. It’s a riveting quest for the truth about history’s most compelling figure.
The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book’s impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.

Praying The Names Of God
$16.99Add to cartA twenty-six-week devotional study by the bestselling coauthor of Women of the Bible. Names in the ancient world did more than simply distinguish one person from another, they often conveyed the essential nature and character of a person. This is especially true when it comes to the names of God recorded in the Bible.
Praying the Names of God explores the primary names and titles of God in the Old Testament to reveal the deeper meanings behind them. El Shaddai, Elohim, Adonai, Abba, El Elyon-God Almighty, Mighty Creator, Lord, Father, God Most High-these are just a few of the names and titles of God that yield rich insights into his nature and character.
Praying the Names of God shows readers how to study and pray God’s names by focusing each week on one of the primary names or titles of God:
– Monday-readers study a portion of Scripture that reveals the name.
– Tuesday-Thursday-readers pray specific Scripture passages related to the name.
– Friday-readers pray Scripture promises connected to the name.By incorporating the divine names and titles into their prayers-and learning about the biblical context in which the name was revealed-readers will gain a more intimate understanding of who God is and how he can be relied on in every circumstance of their lives. Praying the Names of God is a unique devotional, one that offers a rich program of daily prayer and study designed to lead people into fresh encounters with the living God.

Play With Fire
$18.99Add to cartPlay with Fire, the debut book by popular speaker and teacher Bianca Juarez Olthoff, is the reminder that God isn’t waiting until you have more resources or a spouse or a job so he can use you. He’s ready to use you now. Using the mythical creature, the Phoenix, which was also referenced by early church leaders, she parallels this story with God’s work in her own life, highlighting the beauty of reinvention with fire as both the impetus and the method for change. Olthoff reminds us that we serve a God who is redemptive and can take the worst situations and use them for His glory. Play With Fire is a bible-infused message that will help women discover:
*The way out of the middle is moving forward
*The personal and powerful nature of the Holy Spirit
*The power and sacrifice of transformation
*The unique calling and purpose of life involves transformationWith Olthoff’s distinct style, strong storytelling gifts, and powerful bible teaching, Play with Fire will remind readers that God has huge dreams for them. In Bianca’s words, “He’s whispering in the wind and speaking through the fire and shouting in silence the extraordinary dream He is birthing in you. His dream for you is far greater than the dream you have for yourself. It’s not your identity or income or influence that will make this happen. Like Zechariah 4:6 says, “‘It’s not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord.” It’s time to play with fire.

Wreck My Life (Reprinted)
$17.00Add to cartInspiring Story of How Brokenness Leads to Unshakable Faith
Jesus promises peace and trouble for his followers (John 16:33). But most of us only accept the peace and are confused and angry when adversity comes our way. We struggle to remember that adversity produces perseverance, perseverance produces character, and character produces unfailing hope. All-American soccer star Mo Isom knows the struggle firsthand. While on the surface her life seemed like a success, underneath she was battling her fair share of trials. Having faced great personal adversity–including an eating disorder, the suicide of her father, and a horrific car accident–she connects with readers as she stumbles through depression, blame, and self-pity. It wasn’t until God radically wrecked her life that she discovered the glory of renewal through Jesus Christ, when she realized that wreckage can be sacred rather than scarring. She invites readers to take the journey from broken to bold with her, and to surrender their lives to the King who was first wrecked on their behalf.

God And Country
$22.99Add to cartAre you worried about America? Are you asking, “What can I do? Is hope for America even possible?” Dare to believe that all things are possible. It was for me, and I’m “just a mom.” -Jacqueline Arnold
Travel with me across America, for God and Country.
This is my true story of adventure across America to reach my dream of seeing fifty states by my fiftieth birthday (50X50), in spite of the storms of my life and my circumstances. I started where I was, a single mom with $2.12 and one airline buddy pass, and traveled 16 states in one year. Along the way, I asked God to Ignite America and The Spirit of America for patriotic and spiritual revival from Georgia to Hawaii, from Maine to Alaska, through multiple national parks, and from the four corners of America. My prayer is for America to Awaken–to Rise Up, Wake Up, Stand Up, and Take Action in these perilous times for God and Country.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray….I will forgive their sin and heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)
This is a book of EXTRAORDINARY FAITH where I discovered ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE:
– A trip across America without finances
– A God who can ignite The Spirit of America
– A modern-day outbreak of REVIVAL
– God’s Amazing Grace offered freely to everyone!This is America’s Call to Action.
This book contains insight into an intimate walk with God that I pray will heal our nation and inspire a generation to fresh revelation.
It is time for an American Revolution and a Great Awakening. Wherever you are. Whoever you are. What’s holding you back from believing? -
Fence Posts
$14.99Add to cartIn Deuteronomy 19:14 God commanded “You shall not move your neighbor’s boundary mark, which the ancestors have set, in your inheritance which you shall inherit in the land that the Lord your God gives you to possess it.” Very similar commands concerning landmarks are found in five other places in the Bible. Figuratively the landmark is God’s Word. In a culture dominated by deconstructionist philosophy, we are being taught that right and wrong are nothing more than archaic superstitions that a dwindling few cling to and seek to impose upon a society that has outgrown them. From that chaos and moral void, Fence Posts shouts out the commission that God has given to men to be that boundary between right and wrong.
Throughout the book you will learn:
– That scripture defines how God establishes his boundaries
– How God uses His men as the fence posts of those boundaries
– About the importance of the family to the prosperity of a culture
So, come and learn to be the landmark that God has called you to be as a man in your family, job, and community. -
Making Of A King
$14.99Add to cartInformation on the making of a king: the making of a king is a prerequisite to office politics. It places high premium on the processes we must go through before we get to the throne-where god wants to elevate us to. Despite the challenges in life especially the goliath challenge, god enables us to surmount all those insurmountable hurdles during our journey with him. Information on marriage is not a bed of roses: marriage is a sacred institution made by god but we humans use marriage contrary to how god designed it. Some ladies marry to please friends, prove a point to their parents, still others, marry because everybody is marrying. Some marry because they are frustrated with their growing. God created marriage for three main reasons: sharing, support and respect/honor. Information on turning failure into success: success is not something you do once but something you do repeatedly. Success is a culmination of hard work, preparation, perseverance, endurance, vision and an unremitting devotion to the things you wanna see happen. Information on things that destroy us: there are a lot of things we do that destroy us and I focused on three-bitterness, bad friends and greed. In life, never be bitter over past hurts and disappointment because it will poison every good thing that god has planted in you. Evil company corrupts good habits so do not joke with it. Never be greedy over anything in life because you will not be buried with your earthly possessions. Nothing lasts forever except god and his word.

Dead Living Church
$14.99Add to cart“The Dead-Living Church” re-defines the concept of church (the true Ekklesia), her global positioning and her responsibilities according to the original intent of God. Jesus’ declaration in Matthew 16, “I will build my church and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it” far outweighs the theological assumptions and religious beliefs about what church is supposed to be. This book is not a product of professionalism; it is a prophetic release by the Spirit of the living God. The Church is not a denominational gathering of religious people, but the Ekklesia, the people called for an assignment, the assembly of legislating on behalf of God on earth. This book will take you through a journey. Its intent assuredly will awaken your spirit man to experience a paradigm shift from ‘Churchianity’ to that which is God’s original intention.

False Adequacy : Finding God At The End Of You
$15.99Add to cartDo you consider yourself a prideful person or know someone that is? Many times, we overlook pride and don’t see it for what it is which is relying on our own strength and seeking our own way. When we do this, we reject the will of God for our lives.
In this book, the author shares his story of a time in his life that he had to deal with humility. He was forced to walk to all his destinations for a while after his car broke down and he didn’t have the money to fix it. Then, he realized that he was a very prideful person and had been living his life to please only himself and not the Lord.
He teaches the reader that we as Christians have a false perception that God wants to make us look good and this is a fallacy. The truth is that our virtues, gifts and talents have been given to us by God to glorify Himself. Not us. Once we understand this, then we can truly live in such a way to bring glory to God which in turn brings us much freedom and joy.

Rocks Dirty Birds And Briars
$33.00Add to cartIn the parable of the sower, Jesus foretold all the ways the world would try to reject God’s Word. Rocks will be thrown at the righteous, dirty birds will try to steal your peace and assurance, and briars will try to choke out the clear truth with noise and confusion. Today, the rocks are hardened hearts that have turned from God, the dirty birds are enemies of the Gospel dispelling negative influences, and the briars are the media channels seeking to distract, confuse, and alarm. Satan uses these threats to scorch out, choke out, and steal away God’s Word. Yet God is unchangeable and infallible. His Word is the seed that produces truthfulness, holiness, and obedience-and we are called to plant it, nurture it, and tend it in order to have a fruitful harvest.

Prosecuting Jesus : Finding Christ By Putting Him On Trial
$22.00Add to cartWho is Jesus? Christians have been arguing about the answer to that question since there have been Christians, and it seems unlikely that they’re going to agree on an answer anytime soon. Mark Osler, always a bit uncomfortable in church, was never able to find a Jesus that seemed real to him–until he put Jesus on trial.
Drawing on his training as a federal prosecutor and professor of law, he and a group of friends staged the trial of Jesus for their church, as though it were happening in the modern American criminal justice system. The event was so powerful that before long Osler received invitations to take it on the road. Each time he served as Christ’s prosecutor, the story of Jesus opened up to him a bit more.
Prosecuting Jesus follows Osler in this extraordinary journey of discovering himself by discovering Jesus. Juxtaposing things we rarely put together, like the passion of Christ and our ideas about capital punishment, Osler explores an active engagement between Jesus and our contemporary law and culture.

Near Christianity : How Journeys Along Jewish Christian Borders Saved My Fa
$19.99Add to cartThis is book is an exploration of Christianity alongside Jewish guides who are well-studied in and sympathetic to Christianity, but only ever “near Christianity.” Not only did the borders created by Jews and Judaism help to define early Christianity, even today dialogue with Jewish teachers continues to reveal the very heart of Christian identity.

Its Not Fair
$18.99Add to cartHey, you. Are you debating whether to destroy something with your bare hands or curl up on the couch for a decade or two?
This book will solve all of your problems. (Sheesh, that’s aiming a bit high.)
This book is a cup of hot coffee, a ginormous bar of chocolate, or the magical fairy that comes over and does your dishes while you lie in the fetal position clutching a fluffy pillow. Sometimes when life falls apart the only acceptable response is hysterical laughter. When things get so far gone, so spectacularly a world away from any plans you made or dreams you dreamed, you feel it bubbling up inside of you and you scream, “It’s not fair!” And it isn’t. Fair is an illusion, and life is weird.
This book will help you laugh at life’s absurd backhands. This book is an empathetic groan of our collective unfairnesses. You might want to throw it across the room, and you might want to hug it like your new best friend. This book is about us sitting down together in our shared mess, taking a deep breath, gripping hands, looking the hard stuff in its beady little eyeballs, and bahahahaaing at it.
Life’s not fair, but we can learn to love this life we didn’t choose.

Letter To My Anxious Christian Friends
$18.00Add to cartThe last few years have seen dizzying social change in the United States. Many of these changes-such as the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage-seem to challenge or overturn long-standing Christian teachings, while disputes over issues such as immigration, racism, and the abuse of police authority create uncertainty and confusion about what a faithful Christian response looks like. Small wonder, then, that the dominant mood among many Christians is anxiety about what it means to be a follower of Jesus in the world today.
In a clear and readable style, leading Christian ethicist David P. Gushee explores the many social and political changes that are causing Christian anxiety, offering ways to understand and act on these issues that are grounded in the reign of God rather than in human fear. What do we see when we look at a given political issue, argument, or candidate? What do we wish to see? And what might Christian faith contribute to seeing, interpreting, and acting rightly in this particular moment? Gushee helps average Christians think through and make sense of their fears and anxieties about rapid social change in American society, showing how our faith is calling us not to fear and worry but to hope.

As many as 10,000 men and women are retiring each day but many dislike and are anxious about the idea of retirement; they very much would like to be redirected or redeployed to a life in retirement years that is meaningful and significant.

The Church is not a denominational gathering of religious people, but the Ekklesia, the people called for an assignment, the assembly of legislating on behalf of God on earth.

Compassion In Practice
$16.99Add to cartJesus was a spiritual teacher who demonstrated personal and social transformation. His earliest disciples were first known not as Christians but as followers of the Way. Jesus’ Way was a spirituality of radical compassion. He taught how to love and be loved by an extravagantly compassionate God; how to cultivate love for ourselves; and how to love our neighbors by extending love to the outcasts, the offensive, and even our enemies.
Compassion in Practice is an introduction to Christian compassion. It explains not just what Christian compassion looks like but how to practice it in a world ravaged by violence, fear, and reactivity. This book teaches us how to love as Jesus loved.
Expanding on the foundation of Practicing Compassion, Frank Rogers defines the way Jesus prepared his disciples to transform hearts hardened from the assaults of life into compassionate hearts.
