Forgiven : A Story Of Redemption
$15.99She was only 5 years old when she would encounter her first experience of betrayal with the unwelcomed and inappropriate touch of someone she trusted. When these experiences escalated throughout her childhood, and teenage years, she evolved from a free-spirited little girl, into an angry woman who needed to survive.
Then one day, everything changed. Redemption visited her in the night. The 5 year old little girl that had been trapped inside of her was freed! Complete healing happened to her and in a moment of time, and the shame and rage that had kept her bound for so many years, melted away in the loving arms of Jesus. This is her story.

Miracles : Gods Presence And Power In Creation
$50.00Miracles are not confined to the stories of Scripture; these signs of God’s presence and power in creation are experienced throughout our daily existence. Yet cultural challenges and modernity’s skepticism have marginalized belief in them as unreasonable and irrational, says Luke Timothy Johnson.
In this excellent resource for church professionals, Johnson reclaims Christian belief in miracles as integral to recovering a proper and strong sense of creation, recognizing the validity of personal experience and narrative and asserting the truth-telling quality of myth. His analysis includes:
a description of the competing symbolic worldviews that have framed the discussion on miracles, including secular debates and theological imagination;
interpretation of miracles consonant with the biblical construction of reality in the Old and New Testaments;
suggestions for four areas in the church’s life-teaching, preaching, prayer, and pastoral care-that can work together to shape a symbolic world, within which believers can expect, perceive, and celebrate the miracles in everyday life.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

From The Study To The Pulpit
$24.99Many pastors struggle with preaching the Old Testament. As a professor and pastor, Allan Moseley’s vast experience and knowledge go a long way in helping expositors enrich their pulpit ministry. The purpose of his book is to offer both exegetical and preaching help by means of a workable 8-step method. The author’s preaching model starts with the initial step of determining the genre and meaning of the text to doing word studies and discovering the main ideas of the text to applying the sermon in a life-changing and Christ-honoring manner. Some books on preaching from the Old Testament are written by authors who do not actually preach, or preach only occasionally. Pastors and budding preachers need a book written by someone who has knows what it is like to be a pastor and has prepared sermons every week for years. His book reflects his classroom teaching on the subjects of exposition and hermeneutics, and it provides helpful illustrations of expositional principles that rise from his own preaching ministry.

Haunted Man : A Forgotten Classic Abridged And Annotated By Dave Swavely
$11.99What is a Forgotten Classic?
Great works by some of the world’s best fiction writers have nevertheless gone largely unnoticed. Unfortunate timing in the marketplace, inadequate distribution, and changes in public taste are just a few of the reasons for this. Yet many of these works can be as enjoyable and meaningful as far more famous books. Cruciform Press is excited to begin publishing some forgotten classics of special interest to those who enjoy fiction that intelligently explores matters of faith.
This edition of Haunted Man, by Charles Dickens, has been abridged significantly to make it more enjoyable for modern readers, while retaining every essential element of the story. It also includes an introduction with character descriptions and other helpful information, and a thought-provoking afterword discussing some of the spiritual issues addressed by the book.
A college professor named Redlaw is a good man plagued by bad memories of a traumatic childhood, compounded by a terrible betrayal and loss during his young adulthood. When an ethereal demonic doppelganger of himself appears and offers to wipe away those memories, Redlaw eagerly accepts, and also receives the ability to spread this “gift” to others.
Featuring the breathless suspense, colorful characters, and witty humor that has made Dickens such a beloved author, the story also tackles some of the deepest philosophical and theological questions ever raised in his writings. His answer to “the problem of evil” is of both literary and religious interest.
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is one of the most popular and respected authors in history (A Christmas Carol, Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, A Tale of Two Cities, and many more). Dave Swavely is a Dickens fan who knows what it’s like to be haunted by the past and delivered by the cross of Christ.

Sacred Signposts : Words Water And Other Acts Of Resistance
$23.99The church isn’t a building or an institution. The church is what it does. At the very heart of Christianity are its central, sacred, subversive practices-the sacred signposts that have always shown the way to practice Christian faith, even when the terrain around it changes.
“These Christian practices,” writes Benjamin Dueholm, “represent and enact a different vision of what it means to be good, or even to be human, from the ones offered by our prominent political and economic ideologies. Christians have names for this different vision. We call it ‘the Kingdom of God’ or ‘the beloved community.’ And it is realized, in ways that are small and fleeting but also urgent and poignant, every time we gather around our holy possessions.”
In this book Dueholm unpacks Christianity’s seven “holy possessions,” which function as signposts-words, water, bread and wine, confession and forgiveness, ministry, worship, and suffering-and he offers a visionary account of the critical, radical, life-affirming role that faith can play in a secular, post-Christian world.

Born To Break The Curse
$17.63As the prison door slammed behind me, I found myself with plenty of time on my hands to think about how my life had taken such a traumatic turn. I was incarcerated and charged with a double homicide. The grief was a weight that would seem to carry me into the darkest place of hell. All I had ever known was darkness as I had been tormented throughout my life by unwelcome and unholy visitors that tried to squeeze the last breath out of me. Dreams, nightmares, physical manifestations of the demonic plagued me since childhood. My constant companions and worst enemies were fear and despair. It seemed that I was born just to be crushed by the very hand of Satan until three small words changed my life forever: PEACE, BE STILL. I would travel through a horrible valley but sometimes it is in the valleys, when all hope seems to be gone, that you meet the One who can change your direction. I met Him briefly one night as I pressed the barrel of a gun to my head and then invited Him to be my Savior in the most unlikely place: prison. I was supposed to be handed over to Satan as a sacrifice at birth but God had plans for me. I would learn that those unearthly creatures that chased me throughout my lifetime were all part of the generational curses that traveled through my familial bloodline. God would teach me to destroy them through the power of the Holy Spirit but before I could, I would be taken on a journey to find out who I truly was. I am Peter Mason James and this is my story. I was born to break the curse!

Loving And Leaving A Church
$26.00Barbara Melosh’s story was a common one. A second-career seminarian, she arrived at her first pastorate brimming with enthusiasm and high hopes. The blue-collar congregation to which she’d been called had a glorious past but an uncertain future. Certain that she could turn around its slow yet undeniable slide into decline, Melosh inaugurated a number of church growth and outreach programs. Most of these efforts had little effect, and the ones that did seem to work soon suffered reverse outcomes and eventual demise. In the end, Melosh had to conclude that the members of the congregation liked their church the way it was and that she could not drag them into a future they did not want.
Yet while the congregation failed to change itself, Melosh notes, it succeeded in changing her. Simply put, it made her a pastor. At times heartbreaking and hilarious, Loving and Leaving a Church offers a glimpse into the challenges and opportunities of ministry in a mainline church.

Am I Enough
$16.99You don’t have to live with the worry, am I . . . enough?
If there is one thing most women struggle with it’s the never-ending desire to be enough for this world. They put on makeup and wear certain clothing in hopes of being pretty enough for the popular guy. They use big words to sound smart enough for the job they want. And they do everything someone else might ask of them–even in a toxic relationship–to feel wanted and good enough. But their efforts always fall short because the grass is greener on the other side, and there is always someone else who is prettier, smarter, and more “enough” than they are.
In Am I . . . popular blogger Grace Valentine shares the ten lies that girls believe and unpacks the truth that will set them free. She helps them deal with their insecurities and disappointments, peer pressure, and the inevitable feeling of being overwhelmed. And though they will never be enough for this world, she reminds them that they don’t need makeup, or a boyfriend, or one hundred likes on their Instagram picture. God, the Creator of the universe, sees them just as they are and loves them anyway, and he stretches out his arms to them saying, “You are enough for me, my child, come as you are.”

Life Lessons From 2 Corinthians
$12.99Some days we just forget. We forget the house keys. We forget the directions. We forget to return a friend’s phone call. We forget why we went to the grocery store in the first place. And sometimes, we forget that we belong to Jesus. It’s not intentional, but it happens. The church in Corinth had forgotten. They were divisive. Insensitive. Argumentative. Rebellious. They listened to false teachers who questioned the message of Christ and who accused Paul of being unreliable and a false apostle. Paul knew the Corinthian church needed a reminder, so he wrote a heartfelt letter defending his character, ministry, and message. The letter reminds the Corinthians to turn from their worldly ways and to think and live in ways that honor God. Likewise, Paul’s letter encourages us to look at our own lives so we won’t forget what really matters.
The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God’s Word. Each lesson in this updated edition of the bestselling series includes an opening reflection, a description of the context in which the passage was written, an excerpt of the text (from the New International and New King James versions), exploration and reflection questions on the passage, inspirational thoughts on the theme from Max Lucado, and a closing Life Lessons takeaway and personal devotion.
The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series is ideal for use in both a small-group setting or for individual study.

Glimpsing Resurrection : Cancer Trauma And Ministry
$28.00In Glimpsing Resurrection, Deanna A. Thompson combines recent trauma research with compelling first-person narrative to provide insight into the traumatic dimensions of living with a serious illness. Her aim is to help those who are ill and those who care for and minister to them deepen their understanding of how best to offer support.
“The tendency for Christians to move almost immediately from death to proclamations of new life risks alienating those for whom healing and new life seem out of reach,” says Thompson. Glimpsing Resurrection focuses less on the “why” to help readers instead come to terms with the “how” of living with a serious disease. In particular, Thompson provides a framework and concrete suggestions for how to be a church where those who are undone by illness can be undone, as well as a place that can love and support them to hope.
“Finding space within the psalms, the story of Job, Jesus’ cry of God-forsakenness on the cross, and even Christ’s descent into hell helps us imagine how Christian communities can be spacious enough to acknowledge and hold those who are undone by illness,” Thompson says. “Only then does it become possible to identify the hope that can emerge from our not-yet-resurrection reality to imagine more in life today as well as in the life to come.”
