Pen And A Path
$19.95Add to cartA Pen and a Path is a hands-on, practical resource for people who want to explore their relationship with God through writing.

A Pen and a Path is a book for anyone who wants to explore where God has been present in the various experiences of their life, past and present. Stockton, a spiritual director and writing teacher, walks readers through thirty-five separate topics, which can be read and worked on in order or in any sequence of interest to the reader. Topics explored include religious understandings such as how God is envisioned, how religious training formed (or didn’t form) the reader, and how we envision ourselves as spiritual beings. Other chapters explore life stages: childhood, teenage years, elder years, as well as marriage, parenting, and sexuality. Focusing on emotions such as grief, shame, anger, and loneliness, as well as feelings about work provide readers with the opportunity to explore nearly any aspect of their life of faith.

Conservative Christian Reviews The Greatest Movies Ever Made
$19.49Add to cartA Conservative Christian Reviews the Greatest Movies Ever Made was written to give Christians some guidance and perspective on the best films worth viewing that were produced during the first century of filmmaking. In the introduction, the author shows how the radical Left, in one generation, has transformed moviemaking away from the moral standards and family values of “The Golden Age of Hollywood.” The 440 motion pictures chosen for the book were picked by the author and a committee of twenty-two others connected with the film industry, including director Robert Wise (The Sound of Music) and cinematographer Fred Koenekamp (Patton). The survey includes what the panel concluded to be the top one hundred films of all-time. Along with the “cream of the crop” are fifty landmark films, fifty of the most underrated movies of all time, and forty family classics. The book covers both domestic and foreign films representing England, Italy, France, Germany, Japan, Sweden, Australia, Canada, China/Hong Kong, and Russia. Each essay also includes trivia, data, critical comments, and where deemed necessary, warnings for those films with sex scenes, violence, or foul language. Additionally, there are fifty photographs- candids, stills, posters, and portraits-plus a trivia quiz.

No Ordinary Joe
$19.99Add to cartCertainly one of the best-known coaches in college football, Paterno became an assistant at Penn State in 1950 and head coach in 1966. And he has stayed there ever since, despite offers from both colleges and professional teams. Through the years he has compiled a record of 298-77-3, but is probably more respected because of his insistence that the aim of college is primarily a college education and only secondarily a headline on the sports page, so he and his staff drive their players as hard for academic excellence as for gridiron success.

Inheriting Paradise : Meditations On Gardening

Capturing the earthiness and sacramental character of the Christian faith, these uplifting meditations bring together the experience of space and time through the cycle of the seasons in the garden and relate this fundamental human experience to the cycle of the church year and the Christian seasons of grace.The tilling of fresh earth; the sowing of seeds; the harvesting of rhubarb and roses, dillweed and daffodils – Guroian finds in the garden our most concrete connection with life and God’s gracious giving. His personal reflections on this connection, complemented here by delicate woodcut illustrations, offer a compelling entry into Christian spirituality.
