Transparent Woman : From Whore To Holy
$16.86It’s difficult for the individual seeking to make sense in a world so filled with sexual language and bombarded with sexual overtures from television to magazine ads. There is no hiding place from the over sex crazed world we live in. But you don’t have to submit and yield to this way. God is ever present even when we ignore his presence. This book serves as an encouragement to first acknowledge our misguided choices and make choices that align with the will of our Father, then to repent and turn away from a lifestyle and behaviors that have limited our walk in the garden of abundant life.
In serving God and the Kingdom of God I encourage all Gods children to stand up and be counted heirs to the GREATEST ARMY THAT EVER EXISTED, THE ARMY OF GOD! Putting on the full armor and living a life worthy of God’s promises.
“Who will you serve the god of this world or the eternal GOD, the creator of heaven and earth?”
In life there is always a choice, whether conscious or unconscious you choose.

Cloud Of Unknowing
$16.00Few things are as eternal in this world as man’s quest to better know and understand his Creator. Because the human mind is far too small to fully grasp the Almighty, believers who try to approach Him intellectually often “freeze up,” entering into a “cloud of unknowing.” But God is approachable.
The Cloud of Unknowing dates back as far as the fourteenth century and has inspired generations of seekers in their efforts to connect with God. Created as a primer to instruct young monks to develop techniques for encountering God, its tone is not academic or austere but rather a loving call for believers to grow closer to God through meditation and prayer.
If you desire to experience God in your heart, and yourself in God’s heart, The Cloud of Unknowing will be a book to read and reread for a lifetime.

Except The Lord Build The House
$15.61My pediatrician walked in. My jubilant “Hi!” brought a beet-red flush to his face-my heart stopped as he groped for the only words I actually heard, “…and I’m sorry, but your son expired at eight this morning.”
This is a breathtakingly courageous testimony of learning to lean utterly on God. Enduring the most devastating tragedy that a parent can ever experience, Carlsen learns the futility of trying to micromanage the Creator. She learns to listen, learns the nature of true obedience to His will, and her heart and spirit are forged into greater and greater intimacy of trust in the Lord.
Her faith is tested again and again as she surrenders every facet of every nuance of every decision into God’s control. In the midst of her pain, the author gains invaluable insight into the nature of Christian growth, drawing a parallel to the raising up of a baby to maturity. In her clear and direct voice, the concept is staggering in its simplicity:
Imagine if pastors were able to assign mature elders and deacons to patiently nurture and instruct new believers about how to “work out their own salvation” day by day…The church is not a building we come to; it is a living structure we are part of. We don’t come together to act like Christians as part of an exclusive club.
This book examines intimate subjects that are difficult to read about-no reader will get to the end unaffected-yet at the same time…there’s the most incongruous thread of joy woven through the whole. There is teaching here, and a whole universe of emotion. A journey of hope and deepening faith, Except the Lord Build the House is a deeply moving experience.

Through The Fire For His Glory
$19.36When promotion comes, all hell breaks loose! You must remember when you feel like giving up God’s word declares in Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me.” When God makes such a declaration it doesn’t mean that we won’t experience persecution and attack, but He does declare that when calamity comes we must stand on his word knowing he has already fought our battle, provided a way of escape and that we are more than conquerors. Nothing shall separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!
As you delve into each chapter, and meditate on each scriptural nugget tucked away in designated places, allow the Lord to personally speak to you regarding your own situation.
Through the Fire, for His Glory reveals hurt, healing, disappointment, and frustration, but Evangelist Faye has persevered with a God-given resiliency that has kept her steadfast in the work of the Lord.
From chapter 1, “Life Begins,” to the final declaration be prepared for a fresh revelation of what it really means to walk by “faith,” trusting GOD in the process, knowing that he is in control.

Walk With Me
$16.23Perhaps you feel your testimony isn’t worth sharing. Think again. In a world filled with megachurch preachers, complicated theologies, and distortions of the good news of Jesus, what can a down-to-earth faith look like?
“Daddy loved to fish. This particular afternoon found me with him at one of the ponds close to our camp house out in the Walker community just off the Transport Cemetery Road. I was at an age where playing on the sandy bank with a stick was every bit as entertaining as fishing.
Making a little too much noise resulted in a plea to be quiet, but he still kept fishing. I went on playing. The nearby minnows would dart in the shallows right along with dad’s patience when I would stamp my feet. He asked me to stop, and he kept on fishing.
Maybe I took it as a challenge. I’m not sure now what was going through my head, but in a glaring display of the restlessness of a child, I had to slap my foot on that bank one more time. As he started toward me I knew I’d gone too far.
I’d made a number of mistakes that afternoon, what was one more? I ran. Up the hill and away from certain doom I went. Not even halfway up the hill, terror took over when I realized he was right behind me. Like a scene from an educational program where a lion is chasing a baby deer, you knew it was not going to end well, and the narrator was going to be talking about how it was nature’s way. Man, did I feel sorry for that deer…”
Walk With Me is a collection of stories and observations meant to encourage faith, examine your hope, and even laugh.

I am in here.
And trying to speak every day
In some kind of way.

Woman Standing In The Midst
$19.36With the dawn of each new day comes the search for renewed strength as countless women choose to stand in the midst. Wrestling with a flood of thoughts and emotions are all part of their daily routine in their endeavor to overcome and prevail. Like Pharaoh’s daughter, they may not know the potential or purpose of the one for whom they must stand. Yet through courage and a strange sense of purpose they embrace whatever risks comes with their choice. Our world today is filled with the results and blessings of the fruits of their labor, which often costs them all. The many lives, families, marriages, homes and ministries that continue to thrive around us can be attributed to their sacrifice and selfless struggle. Many stood because they were left to, others stand because they have to but there are those whom the Lord have called to stand as examples and a source of strength to others in the midst. Their heroism must be complemented with a change of attitude and perception, resulting in a cultural transformation in the Body of Christ the Church. For ” There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus”.

Lessons Of Love (Revised)
$49.99This book was written in response to a call from the Lord to develop a guide to assist lay people in reading through the Bible. If there are any errors, they are totally mine. I pray you will read these lessons with an open heart to God’s voice through the reading of His word. Along the way, many people provided encouragement and guidance. About 100 people participated in the original Bible study conducted through the mail and Internet. Those participants greatly encouraged me during the process of the intense study and development of the written lessons. Many provided funds for the mailings and prayer for my strength to endure the rigorous one-year process. Above all, my parents, Garner and Jean Baker, provided the most support in love and dedication to my vision for the lessons. Thomas Baker, my son, assisted with some of the typing and drawings. Letha Coleman, my daughter, prayed for me and listened patiently to my complaints and words of exhaustion. My eternal thanks to my family and friends who stayed the course and made this book possible. My husband wrote about 35 of the lessons so that I could attend to family emergencies and the lessons could proceed to the Bible study participants on time. Hopefully, these lessons will be a blessing to you.

Rocking Chair Tales
$15.99“Let me tell you a story.” What sentence draws us in with more magnetism? In his book, “Rocking Chair Tales,” author John William Smith seeks to draw in readers with a collection of short stories intended to light up the imagination and spark conversation. Stories short enough to be read aloud will cause the reader to recall fond memories and perhaps share his or her own stories. Smith’s tales, mostly drawn from his childhood, are true, yet they serve as parables because “they give truth flavor by attaching names, faces, and geographical locations to abstract notions and emotional realities.” His recollections serve as a powerful tool to recapture those magical moments which lay hidden within our cluttered lives.

Homestead : A Memoir
$20.00Joining her husband in the fight to create a home out of a rugged stretch of sagebrush, rattlesnakes, and sand in Eastern Oregon, Jane Kirkpatrick uneasily relinquishes the security of a professional career; the convenience of electricity, running water, and a phone line; and, perhaps most daunting, the pleasures of sporting a professional manicure. But the pull of the land is irresistible, and the couple dreams of gathering their first harvest from a yet-to-be-planted vineyard.
Rather than the simple life they had envisioned, Jane and Jerry find themselves confronting flood and fire, government bureaucracies, and runaway calves, among other disheartening setbacks. Jane frequently questions the sanity of pioneering in this remote area, known as Starvation Point, and she fights against panic with each trip they make down the seven-mile, boulder-strewn, rut-carved “driveway” she calls “the reptile road,” which threatens to spill them into the ravine with every lurch of the truck.
But as she learns to navigate her new life, this novice rancher discovers that disappointment, isolation, and danger can’t compete with the generosity of their rural community, the strength of family bonds, and the faithfulness of the God who planted in their hearts the dream of carving a refuge out of an inhospitable land.

Answering The Call
$19.98Grace on Wings, the only charity air ambulance in the United States, was founded in 2006 when a group of volunteers responded to God’s call on their lives. Since then, the ministry has served 271 patients in crisis from a medical emergency. This book shares their stories and some of the amazing patient transport stories. On a deeper level, it challenges all readers to hear and answer God’s call to love and serve others. “I was most captivated by the stories of the patients helped by the Grace on Wings ministry. Countless times while reading the book, I was reminded of the friends who helped the paralytic go through the roof of a house to be healed by Jesus. Dr. Milstead and his team are the friends in that story.” Rev. Dan McNerney, Presbyterian Frontier Fellowship “I remember well the day Hal presented to me and our senior lender. The deep passion oozed out of him. The love of Jesus and commitment to this ministry was compelling.” Karen Miller, President and CEO, The Farmers Bank “Answering the Call tells the wonderful story of friends who heard God’s call to go beyond the usual, beyond the normal way of life, into an exciting and unique way of serving the Lord and helping people who desperately need help. Jim Milstead shares the challenges, the responses, and the blessings of God as the Grace on Wings team steps forward in faith to do the seemingly impossible. This book is a great read, as it turns our personal thoughts into how we too can answer the call and do the impossible with God’s leading.” Donna Thomas, Christian Vision Ministries For more information or to make a flight request, call 1.877.75.GRACE, find Grace on Wings on Facebook, or visit the ministry website at www.graceonwings.org.

Threshold 2 : Time Is Once Go With Truth

In March 2012 I discovered Westbow Press. Prayerfully putting my manuscript into the hands of their editor’s, the hard work of rewriting progressed. My hope is to encourage those who think they know Jesus as Savior to be sure and obey Him as Lord. Lord willing many more will come to love Him.

Pilgrimage : My Journey To A Deeper Faith In The Land Where Jesus Walked (Reprin
$22.35An Intimate Look at a Bestselling Author’s Journey to Deeper Faith
“The opportunity to tour Israel came at a good time. For months, my life has been a mindless plodding through necessary routine, as monotonous as an all-night shift on an assembly line. Life gets that way sometimes, when nothing specific is wrong but the world around us seems drained of color. Even my weekly worship experiences and daily quiet times with God have felt dry and stale. I’m ashamed to confess the malaise I’ve felt. I have been given so much. Shouldn’t a Christian’s life be an abundant one, as exciting as Christmas morning, as joyful as Easter Sunday?”
With gripping honesty, Lynn Austin shares with readers a private and intimate look at her own struggles with spiritual dryness in a season of loss and unwanted change. As she journeys through Israel, Austin turns to Scripture at each site she visits. Then with a fiction writer’s eye for detail, she seamlessly weaves events and insights from the Word as she finds hope, renewed faith, and a sense of direction for the future.

EpilogueAdditional Info
Life pulls us in many directions, sometimes even to the point of pulling our souls apart. We know rest and reflection are necessary for a healthy life-even Jesus took time to get away from the crowds, away from the demands of everyday life, to pray, to spend time with close friends, to sleep. But when Carolyn Weber-emotionally and physically exhausted from managing her career as a college professor, writing her first book and parenting three children under the age of three-hears this truth from a friend, all she can think is: but who will do everything if I don’t? And this sets her on a journey to find the still, small space in each day. In these pages Carolyn reflects on the eternal beauty that lurks within the present. Drawing from literature, history and everyday life, Holy Is the Day is a collection of spiritual reflections that trace the way God’s ever-renewing grace is a gift of the present. Opening it we find poignant stories of endurance, humility, compassion, remembrance and gratitude, as well a harrowing account of near-death experience. Carolyn gives us new eyes to receive the precious gift of the present and give it away to others.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Orthodoxy
$17.00In response to G. K. Chesterton’s book Heretics, H. G. Wells said, “I will begin to worry about my philosophy…when Mr. Chesterton has given us his.” And that is what Chesterton set out to do. But, like any good theorist, he truly believed that he could not undertake this task without first articulating what he did not agree with. Having completed this act and receiving many responses to it, he set out to articulate the philosophy he had come to believe.
In a personal way, Chesterton uses “a set of mental pictures” to describe his journey in discovering the truth. Among his key points is the role of reason and fantasy in helping him to discover true orthodoxy. They led him to see that this was not a product of chance but was fashioned by a divine Creator. His timeless wisdom is relevant to the struggles of many Christians today.
Chesterton was surprised to find that what he discovered about orthodoxy was not unique to him at all; rather, it had been passed down through many generations. And he admitted, after much struggle and in much humility, “I will not call it my philosophy, for I did not make it. God and humanity made it; and it made me.”

3 Tears Of Hope
$22.48This story “Three Tears of Hope” is a true story based on true events and has truly shown how GOD IS STILL ALIVE & WELL! The people in the book are real people that participated in the miracles that happened. THIS STORY BEGINS WITH A SUDDEN ANEURISM WHICH LEFT Elise unable to breath within 1 1/2 hours of the rupture of 2 aneurisms near the brain stem. Following the onset of this story, Elise was in an induced three week coma. Within one hour after she arrived at the hospital Elise was not able to breathe on her own and had to be intubated. Then about three months later, was in a second critical non responsive coma following her cranialplasty, subsequent hematoma and shunt malfunction which caused over-shunting and a collapse of the ventricles. In this coma, Elise diminished to the point of being non-responsive to pain and again unable to breath and was again intubated and put into Surgical Intensive Care Unit. Elise had more than fifty procedures performed during almost 6 months of being between hospitals, long term care facility for ten weeks and back to the hospital and then released to a brain injury care facility for three weeks before being able to go home. Patrick was on the east coast when the initial catastrophic events took place, and flew home on the first available flight and stayed the whole time in the hospital 24/7 to be by Elise’s side and act as her advocate. This story takes you to the edge of your seat, as Patrick was told Elise would not survive three days, and then not two weeks. Patrick and Elise Murray met at work, dated seven years and then married. They live in Ventura County, California. Recently they celebrated their 19th Anniversary.
