Gods Timing For Your Life (Reprinted)
$12.94Bestselling author Dutch Sheets will inspire and encourage readers with this clear, revelatory study of God’s appointed times and seasons. Going beyond the basic definitions of kairos and chronos, Sheets brings fresh insight to the subject, examining Scripture to show how kairos (strategic) times and chronos (general) times are not two separate and unrelated seasons in our lives but, rather, are often simply different phases of the same process. He discusses how God brought about His divine shift in the lives of men and women throughout the Bible and the many ways in which God used these seasons of change to deepen His people’s understanding of Him.

Chain Reaction : A Call To Compassionate Revolution
$18.99Darrell Scott launches a crusade for changing the world based on the ideals of his daughter Rachel, whose martyrdom at Columbine High School is chronicled in the bestselling book Rachel’s Tears.
Rachel Scott and her killer Eric Harris both talked about starting a “chain reaction.” Eric used violence to kill and destroy at Columbine High School. But Rachel chose another path. In a personal creed she wrote one month before her death in the Columbine tragedy, she explained her conviction that if one person goes out of his or her way to show compassion, it will start a world-changing chain reaction of kindness.
For Rachel, this was a solemn calling. And now her father, Darrell Scott, is carrying on her crusade by challenging people of all ages to commit themselves to creating a revolution of compassion that can make a real difference in our troubled world. Chain Reaction spells out this challenge in compelling detail, providing moving examples of practical compassion and giving illustrations from Rachel’s life and journals.

Hustling God : Why We Work So Hard For What God Wants To Give
$18.99We work hard at life. We try to get better jobs, better homes, better relationships, and even a better spirituality. We are like Jacob in the Old Testament. His name means “striver, schemer, supplanter, hustler.” He could have been the poster boy for the American Dream.
But author Craig Barnes says this is not the way we should be living our lives. We should not try to manipulate and hustle ourselves into a place of advantage with God, a position that has been ours all along. After all, God is the one who climbed down the ladder to be with us.
Using true anecdotes from the men, women, and families of the churches he has served, Barnes invites hard-running, stressed-out, burned-out people to stop striving. Life is not something we grasp and clutch to us, but a gift God freely gives. Only when we open our hands can God fill them with the blessings he has been waiting to lavish upon us all along.

Becoming the person God wants you to be . . .
Have you ever tried to break a bad habit? By sheer willpower you set your mind to overcome it . . .but suddenly, there it is again! Do you ever have thoughts rise up in your mind that would make you blush if they were suddenly broadcast over a loudspeaker?
Experiences like this express the gap that exists between what we are and what we want to be. This book is all about bridging that gap!

-Facing challenges with the authority of Christ
-Patience

Sacred Thirst : Meeting God In The Desert Of Our Longings
$19.99Jesus once said, “Whoever drinks of the water that I will give them will never be thirsty.” So why are Christians still thirsty? We throw ourselves into church work, Bible studies, prayer, missions, fellowship. Yet still we search restlessly for something more. What are we missing?
Perhaps the answer is, more of Jesus. Church meetings and programs, ministry, Christian counseling, and home groups are all good, but they are not him. It doesn’t matter how devoted we are to these wonderful activities; they are not the same thing as communion with Jesus. Our souls crave him alone.
In Sacred Thirst, author and pastor Craig Barnes brings us face-to-face with our desperate longing for God. Like the woman at the well, we have tried to satisfy our parched souls with so many other things – even religious things. But when we get to the bottom of our desire, we find Jesus quietly waiting with his living water – intimate communion with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
This book is filled with unique insights into human experience and the character of God. With his keen understanding of the needs of contemporary Christians, Barnes points to the only way our thirst will ever be satisfied. Drawing from his rich background in the Bible and his tender insights as a pastor, he leads us into a new understanding of ourselves and the uncontrollable but gracious God we seek.

When God Weeps
$19.99If God is loving, why is there suffering? What’s the difference between permitting something and ordaining it? When bad things happen, who’s behind them, God or the devil? When suffering touches our lives, questions like these suddenly demand an answer. From our perspective, suffering doesn’t make sense, especially when we believe in a loving and just God. After more than thirty years in a wheelchair, Joni Eareckson Tada’s intimate experience with suffering gives her a special understanding of God’s intentions for us in our pain. In When God Weeps, she and lifelong friend Steven Estes probe beyond glib answers that fail us in our time of deepest need. Instead, with firmness, and compassion, they reveal a God big enough to understand our suffering, wise enough to allow it and powerful enough to use it for a greater good than we can ever imagine.

A clarion call for those who want to have God in their lives every day and not just on Sundays, This Far by Faith offers clear-sighted, friendly advice that will guide readers gently into the new millennium.
As the owners of a flourishing company called This Far by Faith Enterprises, Linnie Frank and Andria Hall have started nationwide “Circle of Seven” prayer groups, produce a newsletter called “The Mustard Seed,” and conduct lectures and seminars at their Rhode Island retreat center. Now, in This Far by Faith, Frank and Hall share the “Faith Formula” they have developed in their work together, which they use in their own lives to conquer daily obstacles.
Through Scripture, original prayers and affirmations, and plain old-fashioned “straight talk,” the authors tackle issues ranging from friendship, family, love, marriage, child-rearing, and work, all while underscoring the importance of faith and perseverance as a way of maintaining balance in today’s busy world. In chapters such as “What You Won’t Do for Love,” “Keeping the Home Fires Burning,” “A House Is Not a Home,” “Jobs, Career, and Callings,” and “Give Me That Old Time Religion,” Frank and Hall discuss ways to “live in the light.”

Morning Sun On A White Piano
$15.00There’s a lot of talk these days about slowing down, simplifying, living in the moment, but it isn’t really happening. We all talk the talk, but the walk we walk seems to be getting faster and faster, and we seem to be enjoying it less and less. Our problem is that, in search of life, we pass it by.
Morning Sun on a White Piano is the perfect tonic for the freneticism of contemporary life. In twelve lucid, straightforward essays, Dr. Robin Meyers offers a brilliant guide to achieving the simple and sacramental life by recognizing what is holy in the seemingly insignificant details of everyday life: Books. Music. Letters. Children.
Morning Sun on a White Piano is a book about finding joy in the present, about reclaiming the lost art of living, hearing again, in a culture that has gone deaf; seeing again, in a culture that’s blinded; and feeling again, in a culture that overstimulates and numbs itself. If simplifying our lives means singing the song, Morning Sun on a White Piano challenges us to learn the dance.
Compact, accessible, gorgeously written, and beautifully designed, here is a book that is a perfect gift for anyone–especially ourselves.

Agape Eros Gender
$160.00Issues of gender and sexuality have recently come to the fore in all humanities disciplines, and this book reflects this broad interdisciplinary situation.

The intention is to outline a distinctively Christian understanding of the male/female relationship reflecting the priority of agape over eros. Key Pauline texts are read alongside modern texts by Virginia Woolf, Freud and Irigaray.
