Beer Drinkers Guide To God
$19.99It’s no accident that Jesus’ first miracle was turning water into wine! Written by an Episcopalian priest-slash-bar owner, this thoughtful, well-written book of spiritual essays distills lessons about the character of God from stories about adult beverages.
“Oh taste and see that the Lord is good.” -Psalm 34:8
Father Bill Miller appreciates both spirits and the Holy Spirit. As an Episcopal priest and the owner of Padre’s bar in Marfa, Texas, he understands that spiritual lessons can be drawn from everyday living as well as the finer things in life-a smoky Scotch, a robust Zinfandel, PBR in a can.
Father Bill believes that being upright does not mean you have to be uptight. In The Beer Drinker’s Guide to God, he brews up insightful, beautifully written reflections on how alcoholic beverages can reveal the true nature of God. He weaves together stories from his life in ministry, his travels in search of the world’s best Scotch, his attempts at brewing his own beer, and colorful evenings in his Texan bar. He also reflects on the lessons he’s learned from roller derby, playboy bunnies, Las Vegas, and his attempts to marry Miss Universe, all while writing about generosity, sacrifice, pilgrimage, and spiritual transformation. From the deeply touching to the laugh-out-loud funny, these stories ultimately open our minds to the glory of God and our mouths to some of his more delicious creations. The Beer Drinker’s Guide to God is a smart, earnest, hilarious book for those thirsty for God’s truth.

Yawning At Tigers
$19.99In our increasingly shallow, self-centered world, quaint notions such as timeless truth and reverence for a holy, awe-inspiring God seem irretrievably lost. They’re not. Many of us have fashioned a domesticated deity-a casual, malleable source of love and good feelings as we define them-and yet our spiritual lives are sedate, dry, devoid of passion or purpose. Even so, today’s postmodern epidemic of rampant restlessness-and our failed, often destructive attempts to ease it-may be evidence of an ancient ache, a deep hunger for transcendence in all of us. Drew Nathan Dyck makes a compelling case that the more we all seek is available by knowing and worshiping the dangerous God of Scripture-a God who is paradoxically untamable and accessible, impossibly mysterious and intimately knowable, above and beyond our physical world yet powerfully present within it. He is a God who beckons us to see him with fresh eyes and let him lead us to a faith that is wild, adventurous, and rooted in a deep understanding of his eternal character. Yawning at Tigers charts a course away from the “safe” harbor of sanitized, predictable Christianity, into deeper waters where, yes, danger lurks, but where God’s majesty, love, and power finally become more real and transformative than we could have imagined.

No country in Europe or North America will take them. And so they set off across the submarine-infested Atlantic for the jungles of ParaguayIn this gripping tale of faith tested by adversity, Emmy Barth lets us hear directly from the mothers, fathers, and children involved through their letters and diaries. Especially eloquent are the voices of the women as they faced both adventure and tragedy.

Signed Sealed Delivered
$26.95An all-in-one volume sharing the history, practice, and viewpoints of Confirmation in
the Episcopal Church and the first book on the subject for at least 15 years* Resolutions regarding Confirmation are coming to the 2015 General Convention
* Includes questions for reflection and study by individuals and groups
Many clergy and educators would say that the rite of Confirmation in the Episcopal
Church today is a sacrament in search of a meaning. Some believe Confirmation is an
essential rite of passage for adult leadership in the governance of the church. Some
believe it is a rite that no longer has a place in the life of the church, understanding the
importance that Baptism now holds in the 1979 Book of Common Prayer’s ecclesiology.
Following a history of how the rite of Confirmation came about and its implications for
youth and adults in the church today, voices in the Episcopal Church (bishops, liturgical
scholars, confirmation leaders, and youth themselves) offer fresh viewpoints here in a
conversational format to engage the reader.AUDIENCE: For bishops, priests, deacons, seminarians, youth leaders, Christian
educators, parents.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Daily Devotions For Die Hard Fans Duke Blue Devils
$19.99Extra Point Publishers
Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Duke Blue Devils combines the great passion of the Duke fan with the grand passion of the fan of Christ in one set of devotions. The result is a book that is fun while it provides a time of reflection about God and your faith. Duke and UNC were once friends for a day on the basketball court. A play that probably didn’t happen helped Duke to one of its greatest football comebacks ever. Coaches took stopwatches out to the track one day and discovered one of Dukes’ greatest athletes. Mike Krzyzewski’s mom once said to her son, “I told you so,”; he didn’t mind. The player who clinched the 2009 national title for the Duke women’s tennis team didn’t realize she had done it. These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Danny Ferry, David Cutcliffe, Grant Hill, Christian Laettner, and many others. Their stories along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events are told with a twist: They are all tied to God’s story.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Public Education : The Final Solution In The Conquest Of Americas Ideals
$18.99A SOCIALIST AGENDA RIGHT IN YOUR OWN NEIGHBORHOOD Anyone who watches the headlines knows that war rages in our nation. The liberal agenda to destroy America’s three cornerstones of exceptionalism and to transform our nation into a socialist country grows more blatant by the day. What many parents and educators fail to realize, however, is that this agenda has already gained ground in communities across the fruited plain through an avenue few would expect-our public school system. In pushing your neighborhood toward socialism, the public school system: * Attacks family values, Christianity, and American patriotism. * Erodes America’s traditions and Christian foundation. * Pushes the state religion and a spirit of governmental dependence. * Encourages physical, moral, and intellectual weakness. * Handicaps students from achieving their full potential. Written by an educational insider, this eye-opening expose, a must have for every concerned parent, describes the 235-year plan to hijack American democracy. It also reveals a destructive philosophy, based on Plato’s Republic, America must abandon to avert God’s judgment.

Eternal Life After Death
$23.11The science of eternal life is related to the electromagnetic energy that our brain produces while we are living on earth. This energy concept is tied to the miracles that that Jesus Christ used to both influence and heal people.
The energy that we create while living on earth is propagated at the speed of light in an ever increasing band without limit. As it is propagated, it defines the characteristics of all the components of the Universe according to the laws of science that relate the interaction of electromagnetic energy with those components.In addition, we share space with the energy of all the others who have lived on Earth and are aware of their entire life history!
To predict what our energy will provide for us ,the latest science on how our Universe was created is presented.This science serves as a base for what we will see as our energy propagates through the Universe and beyond,which is called the Infinitum.
Because eternal life is for such am incomprehensible period of time, cosmic time is introduced, which suggests that trillions of years might seem like a day.
God is defined to be the master of all scence,and in Gods capacity to control the Infinitum,an appreciation for how great God is extends far beyond what our past experience has suggested.
This book follows the propagation of our energy through the Universe and beyond in light years.There are about 70 colorful photos to aid the description of what this will be like. The background science of our Universe is used to illustrate what universes beyond ours might be like.
The Bible is used to confirm the science of the Infinitum and the vision of our electromagnetic energy as it relates to life after death,

Evolution The Greatest Deception In Modern History
$49.99Red Butte Press Inc Title
This is an easy-to-read, comprehensive and compelling review of scientific evidence for Divine Creation-loaded with color photos and illustrations. This book is described as a “tour de force which strongly refutes the notion that ‘science supports’ the evolution/long age view.” It clearly shows that evolutionary doctrine is not based on known scientific laws or the preponderance of scientific evidence but rather, it is built on false assumptions and poor science. Scientific creation, as described in the Book of Genesis, is perfectly consistent with all known scientific laws and evidence-the evidence is overwhelming and supports the reality of a worldwide flood and a young earth. Dr. Roger Gallop is a geologist and marine scientist with over 35 years as a geotechnical and biological consultant. He has degrees in geology, oceanography, and science education. In addition, he was an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps and is a Vietnam veteran. He has been happily married for 40 years with one son and grandson.

High King Of Heaven
$42.99For the last 150 years the evangelical world has been embroiled in a Great Debate about eschatology, about the true biblical picture of God’s ultimate purpose for the universe, life, and man. Much of the debate swirls around the Kingdom of God: What is its exact nature? In how many stages does it enter history? How shall we interpret the Old Testament prophecies of the Kingdom–literally (in terms of Israel) or figuratively (in terms of the Church)? There is also controversy about the Consummation: Prior to the Lord’s return, will our world get better and better, or worse and worse? Will he return once, twice, or even three times? When He comes again, will it be before the Millennium or after? How many resurrections should we expect? How many judgments? What will the universe be like when God finally creates the new heavens and the new earth? This book was written in the conviction that the High King of heaven has given his people certain master keys by which they may know the answers to all these questions, and therefore be fully prepared for the awesome consummation of all things. In it, pastor and author Dean Davis seeks to place those keys in our hands, so that we may behold afresh the simplicity and glory of our Blessed Hope, and thereby resolve, once and for all, the Great End Time Debate.

He Leadeth Me
$16.00Captured by a Russian army during World War II and convicted of being a “Vatican spy,” Jesuit Father Walter J. Ciszek spent 23 agonizing years in Soviet prisons and the labor camps of Siberia. Only through an utter reliance on God’s will did he manage to endure the extreme hardship. He tells of the courage he found in prayer–a courage that eased the loneliness, the pain, the frustration, the anguish, the fears, the despair. For, as Ciszek relates, the solace of spiritual contemplation gave him an inner serenity upon which he was able to draw amidst the “arrogance of evil” that surrounded him. Ciszek learns to accept the inhuman work in the infamous Siberian salt mines as a labor pleasing to God. And through that experice, he was able to turn the adverse forces of circumstance into a source of positive value and a means of drawing closer to the compassionate and never-forsaking Divine Spirit.
He Leadeth Me is a book to inspire all Christians to greater faith and trust in God–even in their darkest hour. As the author asks, “What can ultimately trouble the soul that accepts every moment of every day as a gift from the hands of God and strives always to do his will?”

Bourgeois Babes Bossy Wives And Bobby Haircuts

Stories I Never Told You
$22.99The story of John Rozema’s life begins in the tropical paradise of the Netherlands East Indies (now Indonesia). From the Netherlands, to the United States, and to many places around the world, we follow John as he shares with us his amazing life. We feel the pain, agony, and hardships he endured at the hands of an abusive stepfather; understand the almost-impenetrable fortifications he built around his heart; watch him masquerade behind a thousand masks as he searches for love in all the wrong places; and struggle with him on his subsequent quest for truth. After John’s miraculous encounter with the living God one cold November night in 1977, we journey with him as the Lord takes John to many mountain top experiences, but also through deep, dark valleys he could never imagine. More than a memoir just for his children and friends, The Stories I Never Told You is a gripping true-life account of the life of a man God reached out to save. It’s a story that could be our own.

Case For Character
$53.33Contents:
Introduction
1. Virtue Ethics And The Challenge Of Hauerwas
2. Contemporary Lutheran Voices
3. The Lutheran Confessions
4. The Search For A Paradigm-Some Lutheran Efforts
5. A Creedal Framework-A Proposal For The Reclamation Of Ethics Within Lutheranism
6. An Ethic For The Church-The Place Of Character FormationAdditional Info
Over the last several decades, perceptive observers of Western civilization have documented what virtually everyone has perceived: as the old foundations of society have toppled, morality and personal character have been set adrift and often vanished altogether. How can character be cultivated when it seems no one is willing or able to provide a definitive description of character to which humans should aspire?While the reasons for this are many and complicated, one of the more potent singular factors is actually theological, says Biermann. Contemporary Lutheranism, in particular, has struggled with the appropriate place of morality and character formation, as these pursuits often have been perceived as being at odds with the central Christian doctrine of justification.
A Case for Character explores this problem and argues that Christian doctrine, specifically as articulated within a Lutheran framework, is altogether capable of encouraging a robust pursuit of character formation while maintaining a faithful expression of justification by grace alone through faith alone.

Health For All
$21.16When Dan Fountain and his wife arrived in the Congo in 1961, the challenges to effective medical missions seemed overwhelming. As the only doctor for a quarter of a million residents of the Vanga Health Zone, and with nothing but a dilapidated mission hospital and an undertrained staff to run it, Dr. Fountain turned to prayer, innovation, and local partnerships to meet the vast needs of his area.
Health for All tells the story of an ever-increasing vision-from curative care to community health, from a barely functioning hospital to a network of successful health services, from a lack of qualified workers to a local residency training program, from biomedical reductionism to whole person care, from cultural stalemate to worldview transformation. Dr. Fountain’s insights into health and wholeness have changed countless lives and communities. Part memoir, part history, part textbook, Health for All is the legacy of a man who patterned his life and labor after that of the Great Physician.

Sermons For Special Days
$21.18David Rogne’s Sermons for Special Days presents a wonderful opportunity for pastors and congregations to connect faith to their everyday lives.
If all truth is God’s truth, then David Rogne has compiled a marvelous resource that reaffirms this fact. Rich with literary and historical reference, each sermon seeks to engage listeners as it recounts events and stories, beautifully weaving modern and applicable themes within scriptural truths. While Rogne has designed his sermons to be delivered on special days — New Year’s Day, Mission Sunday, and Father’s Day, to name a few — the power of each sermon extends well beyond those events as Rogne reminds us that in order to have a life well lived, we must constantly examine the life we are living. A life lived in submission to Christ requires an obedience to the Great Commission, carrying the salvation message into the darkest parts of our world with a clear understanding of God’s message and a deep respect for those who have gone before us.
The unique aspect of Rogne’s collection of sermons is that they are not confined to the pulpit, for each sermon can be used in a small group setting or in private devotionals. Rogne’s reliance upon history, literature, and scripture will enlighten any student of the word, and each sermon will encourage congregations to embrace a dig-deep approach toward God’s truth.
The titles included in this book are:
New Year’s Day — Taking Stock (Acts 24:24-27)
Mission Sunday — Reaching Out (Romans 10:1-15)
Heritage Sunday — Charles Wesley (Psalm 100)
Mother’s Day — Soul-Shaping (Ephesians 6:1-4; 2 Corinthians 4:6-10)
Bible Sunday — Does God Have a Word for You! (2 Timothy 3:14-17)

Sacred Spaces : Stations On A Celtic Way (Revised)
$13.99A beautifully written, evocative exploration of the Celtic concept of ‘sacred space’
There are many books that explore actual, physical, sacred space and pilgrimage sites. This is a different kind of book. It introduces seven traditional ‘sacred spaces’ but then leads readers into a deeper reflection on what such ‘sacred space’ means in our own lives and experience. The various sacred spaces explored are: the Celtic Cross; the infinite knot; hilltops; wells and springs; causeways and bridges; thresholds and burial grounds; and boundaries. In each chapter, the author introduces a ‘sacred space’ as the main theme and then illustrates this by associating it with a particular stage of life and a particular sacramental experience. The ideas are then brought together by means of a scripture story.

Hearing Her Voice Revised Edition (Revised)
$16.99Based on his study of a key word for ‘teaching’ in the New Testament—an activity often thought to be prohibited to women—and on various other kinds of public speaking in which women in Scripture clearly participated, scholar John Dickson builds a case for women preachers. Focused and purposefully limited in its conclusions, Dickson’s argument has potential to change minds and appeal to complementarians and egalitarians alike. The mediating and widely adoptable position in this original short work will appeal to pastors, Bible teachers, college and seminary students, professors, and lay leaders in the church with its fresh approach to the hot-button topic of women in ministry.

Everybodys Normal Till You Get To Know Them
$18.99Normal? Who’s normal? Not you, that’s for sure! No one you’ve ever met, either. None of us are normal according to God’s definition, and the closer we get to each other, the plainer that becomes. Yet for all our quirks, sins, and jagged edges, we need each other. Community is more than just a word—it is one of our most fundamental requirements. So how do flawed, abnormal people such as ourselves master the forces that can drive us apart and come together in the life-changing relationships God designed us for? In Everybody’s Normal Till You Get to Know Them, teacher and best-selling author John Ortberg zooms in on the things that make community tick. You’ll get a thought-provoking look at God’s heart, at others, and at yourself. Even better, you’ll gain wisdom and tools for drawing closer to others in powerful, impactful ways. With humor, insight, and a gift for storytelling, Ortberg shows how community pays tremendous dividends in happiness, health, support, and growth. It’s where all of us weird, unwieldy people encounter God’s love in tangible ways and discover the transforming power of being loved, accepted, and valued just the way we are. In Everybody’s Normal Till You Get to Know Them, Ortberg once again reveals his gift for sharing profound insights using a lighten-up approach. With winsome humor and a fondness for well-spun stories, he pops the myth of normalcy and hands us the keys to creating and sustaining relationships. Because in all the rewards and struggles of community, we’re investing in something beyond our comprehension. You could call it heaven. You could call it home. It’s the place where all of us are headed, all of us belong, and all of us will be normal at last.

Dear God Welcome Back To School
$11.99You might be working in the public schools, but who are you really working for on your job? Are you allowing the Lord to use you in such a way that He is obviously at work with you in your public school? Yes, God is looking at our public schools and sees the righteous ones in whom He can work to bring about revival and spiritual healing. From bus drivers to teachers to administrators, there is no Christian public school employee who can’t have an influence for our Lord Jesus Christ if we allow Him to fill us and lead us. As you read Dear God, Welcome Back to School, prepare to be encouraged, edified, and equipped.

Let’s hearken to the voice of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, as He says, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light” (Matt. 11:28-30 nasb).

I Saw Heaven
$16.86Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the stars when you look up at the sky? Most of us are very familiar with the solar system. In addition to planets, the Solar System is made up of moons, asteroids, comets, much smaller planets, dust and gas. Everything in the Solar System revolves around the sun. However, what lies beyond what we can see with our human technology? Did our Creator just stop creating in the darkness of outer space? What about this place called heaven? Is this a real place or just a fabrication for those who desperately need to know there is something wonderful to look forward to, after this life? On Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2009, the Lord opened my eyes to see something so extraordinary. He gave me a glimpse of heaven. It wasn’t until now that I felt it was time to put this in writing as an inspiration to all those who wonder, “Is there an afterlife, and if so, what is it like?” In the book I Saw Heaven, A glimpse into Eternity, you will take a journey with me to a place that is so far beyond what any of us could fathom. Up until this experience, my own view of heaven was largely based on the Bible, and little bits of information I have heard over the years. On that day, however, my view of heaven came alive like a 3D panoramic movie; but it wasn’t a movie; what I saw was real! After this heavenly experience, my life will never be the same, and I live to encourage others to receive Christ as their Savior, and to let them know that what awaits them when they die is a paradise that is unlike anything they could possibly imagine!
