Wake Up For Heavens Sake
$18.11Endorsements
In striking similarity to the message of John the Baptist, the words of Pastor Crummer will find you hearing the voice of one crying out into the wilderness. A call to cut through the distractions most experience in the often hectic church life of the Believer today, pleading for a return of the readers heart to experience an intimacy with Christ that exceeds current expectation. A timely reminder that we have been called “to make (and keep) straight the way of the Lord”.
H. Jay Kuhlman“If you or someone you know has been the victim of the devil’s tactics to create a church that is short sighted in its understanding of the true nature of worship, then “Wake Up for Heaven’s Sake” is part of the cure. Crummer’s book will challenge you to return to your created purpose and once again see worship as a relational reality that permeates every part of who you are.”

End From The Beginning
$19.36The End From The Beginning deals with subjects that are literally affecting every person on the planet, now, and will increasingly concern us in this time of the end. Christians need to know the insights and revelations contained in this work.
Since the year 2000, there was, and continues to be, a growing, almost tangible sense of anticipation, for which many people feel the need of answers.
Quite a number of people will be attracted to this book. To those who look for hope that it is not “the end of the world,” Ty Aldrich will clear up many misconceptions about what the Bible has prophesied. Plus, they will see that many things that were thought to be fearful future events happened, and the world continued on.
For the millions who purchased, or read someone’s copy of “The Late Great Planet Earth,” (C) by Hal Lindsey, The End From The Beginning is the long-awaited presentation of a more Bible-based scenario. Many people who have only been exposed to the traditional teaching still wonder: “What would a different interpretation be?” and, “What are the Bible proofs of another scenario?”
The End From The Beginning supplies the answers as a more complete explanation of the end-time than they have ever previously had presented to them!
The End From The Beginning will have broad appeal. The masses of people who do not fall into any doctrinal ‘camp’ will appreciate how the terminology “de-mystifies” the meanings of language used in the Bible. They can see how the world we live in, with the kind of governments we have, is exactly as God foretold, and what each individual’s responsibility is in deciding the role of government. Even the uninitiated will find that they can understand the Bible, its prophecies, relationship with God, and how He is answering the challenge to His Throne as Most High!

Coming To Awe
$19.98Lowell Routley, Ph.D. has trained therapists who work with victims of extreme trauma in The Core Integrity Model(C) that he developed since 1988. Dr. Routley has over 40 years of experience in which he has witnessed the resilience of the human mind and spirit to heal in spite of horrific violence, torture, and mind control. His counseling skills grew through post-graduate education but he attributes his greatest learning to have come from the victims themselves. Courageous people of all ages, seeking answers to be freed from mental and spiritual bondage, demonstrate that the Creator endowed the human mind with abilities to preserve their Creator-given identity.
The Core Integrity Model(C) was applied to other areas of counseling since 2005. The foundation for this model is two-fold: first is that neurocognitive scientific research provides an understanding of how the human mind is directed by Core consciousness; second illustrates that faith in a personal Creator empowers healing. Dr. Routley finds congruence between faith and science. He claims that scientists are observing the Creator’s handiwork even though they may not acknowledge Him.
Lowell’s education in counseling began at Greenville College and continued at Southern Illinois University, University of Iowa, and Walden University. His knowledge of the Bible began as a hearing impaired child challenged to memorize verses from seven years of age. He learned over three thousand verses giving him an overview of scripture that he uses as relevant in his counseling and teaching ministry.
It is Lowell’s opinion that faith community is very important in healing and growth for every individual. A pilot study with a small group of four couples became the impetus for this series: Coming to Awe, Finding Identity. Lowell hopes that you will experience the awe that comes from knowing your Creator and who He intended you to be.

Broken Pieces : My Journey From Fear To Freedom
$18.11Minister JaNelle B. Latney, a native Washingtonian, is a member of Victorious Life of Faith Church in District Heights, Maryland. She is the mother of two, the grandmother of five and the godmother of three. Loving God and the things of God are her passion for life. She enjoys writing and over the years has written many poems, plays, short stories and songs which have been used all across this nation. Broken Pieces is her first publication to be released.
JaNelle realized that freedom was not a choice but a right for those who surrendered their lives to the Lord. Needing to be set free from chains that kept her in captivity for years, she started her journey to possess everything that was promised unto her.
She is grateful that the Lord took the broken pieces of her life and put them back together. Since gaining her freedom, God has placed a hunger within her to help restore women who have been abused, misused and tossed to the side not only by the world but also by the church. She believes time, patience and encouragement are the keys needed to break through the walls of destruction that hurtful women have in place. Extending God’s love and sharing his word are the keys to reaching those whose faith have wavered.
Her foundational scripture is Psalms 34:1 – I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. Her motto is: Always remember the Lord and He will remember you. If questioned about her level of praise, her response is you don’t know the cost of the oil that’s in my alabaster box. Being whole and complete in Him, she boasts praise is what I do!

Living While Dying
$23.93On the day Donna Tarrant was diagnosed with breast cancer, December 17, 2002, she was standing at the kitchen counter slicing ham for the twenty-five or so guests that were due to arrive for a luncheon any minute. The phone call left her speechless. The doctor told her to buy green bananas; she would be alive to eat them! Any other time, she would have laughed out loud. Now, she was going to die.
After half a night of research, she knew exactly what she was going to do. After the doctor’s appointment, she was determined. She would have a mastectomy and tram flap reconstruction, all on the same day. She did not intend to have chemotherapy or radiation. This is when God stepped in and made her realize that she was in control of nothing, except her dependence and faith in Him. She learned very quickly that He is in control and He does have a plan.
She could make bold statements about what she was not going to do, but the truth of the matter was that she had to hand it all over to Jesus, her Lord and Savior. Finally, she received the peace that was missing. She could not attain that peace without giving it all to Jesus.
After surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, she began anew to live her life-one of extreme appreciation for the gift that she had been given. Life was so much more precious now and she lived it fully. Then, the unthinkable happened.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Do You See What Im Saying
$29.98In Do You See What I’m Saying?, Dr. Claude asserts that we have the ability to ensure more successful journeys by following the “road map” laid out by the Holy Spirit. Given that God is in ultimate control of our lives, He has shown favor by giving us the ability to steer ourselves directly into the path of success. This book examines the “eight mental laws we must all understand,” laws which all refer back to seeing (imagining), speaking (confessing), and believing (faith). And that can be summarized even more succinctly: “If you want something different, you must do something different.” Practical and wildly encouraging, Dr. Claude points out the futility of passive, sideline faith and reinforces the message of faith in action, declaring the spiritual progression: “conceive, believe, confess, and receive.”
Without faith in what you cannot see, it will be impossible to walk in your calling or make the right moves. These chess-like maneuvers can be classified as “destiny decisions,” which are best made when you lay aside your will and desires and concentrate on the will of God.
Drawing from Scripture, the habits of highly effective people, scientific research, and notable “godly movers and shakers,” Dr. Claude also asserts that despite our desire for a smooth life journey free of obstacles, overcoming challenges is essential for growth in Christ. His analyses of pertinent Scriptures are clear, insightful, and comprehensive. Do You See What I’m Saying? is filled with godly advice that can be applied right now.

Whatever Happened To The Zodia Killer
$22.48One of the greatest unsolved mysteries of all time!
So, whatever happened to the Zodiac Killer who haunted the San Francisco Bay Area from 1969 to the night of his sudden disappearance in 1978? He cleverly manipulated and taunted the emotions of the public through the newspapers, and mocked and scorned the police he called “The Keystone Cops” and the “Blue Meanies.” He egotistically announced, “You will never capture me!” It seemed that he was right. The Zodiac always had the “Phantom advantage” in every circumstance, and escaped. He was definitely one of the most demonic individuals on earth, as he spoke often in his letters to the public and the police about “the monster within me . . . I cannot stop!”One night a couple who had just gotten out of a late night church service suddenly encountered him. They ultimately wound up getting into a high speed chase with him. When it was between him and this couple, and ultimately their family, a supernatural occurrence happened! Based on a true story and actual events!

Gods Possibility To Mans Impossibility
$16.86If you believe miracles are only for people with faith, or for Christians only, you are sadly mistaken. Based on the Scriptures, I intend to demystify the idea that miracles are contingent on your faith only. Miracles are not necessarily contingent on your faith (although faith definitely helps), but in the love and character of God Himself. Faith is necessary for a relationship with, and to please God (“And without faith, it is impossible to please God; Heb. 11:6”), but not necessarily to see His goodness. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to find such an encouraging and uplifting message that relieves you of much miss-teaching on the part of religion.
The book’s message is quite unique and one of those things that seem so obvious once brought up, but really eludes the common person until that moment. You will definitely find encouragement and edification in these pages that uplift the soul through correcting this popular and widespread misconception that many churches promote.
I will use many Bible verses and stories that show the content is not merely something I came up with on my own. My premises are based on the Scriptures, out of a sincere motive to correct wrong ways of thinking as it relates to God’s benevolence. The Bible is the only sure and credible foundation that spiritual discussions can stand on.
I will also use headlines of miracles in America from recent years. Miracles that happened not only to Christians, but to every-day people also. With this information, I make it very real and relevant to you, the reader, whether you are a devout Christian, or an atheist. And if you are an atheist, the pages of this book will introduce you to the God that created you, and to the great wonders He has preserved for you, once you come to know and accept Him. Why be content with a morsel, when you can own the bakery? Or why be content with a glass of milk, when you can own the cow? And by this I mean, Jesus can provide the miracle you need today to live the abundant life He promised. The world is so full of people and media that thousands of things happen each year without us being aware. If you want to, you’ll will find modern day miracles everywhere. This information will make the discussion in the book immediate and relevant.
So, come, fly with me on the wings of God. Put God to the test today, and see if He will not open heaven itself to you, and will pour out blessings beyond your widest imagination.

Whos Afraid Of Relativism
$29.41Following his successful Who’s Afraid of Postmodernism? leading Christian philosopher James K. A. Smith introduces the philosophical sources behind postliberal theology. Offering a provocative analysis of relativism, Smith provides an introduction to the key voices of pragmatism: Ludwig Wittgenstein, Richard Rorty, and Robert Brandom.
Many Christians view relativism as the antithesis of absolute truth and take it to be the antithesis of the gospel. Smith argues that this reaction is a symptom of a deeper theological problem: an inability to honor the contingency and dependence of our creaturehood. Appreciating our created finitude as the condition under which we know (and were made to know) should compel us to appreciate the contingency of our knowledge without sliding into arbitrariness. Saying “It depends” is not the equivalent of saying “It’s not true” or “I don’t know.” It is simply to recognize the conditions of our knowledge as finite, created, social beings. Pragmatism, says Smith, helps us recover a fundamental Christian appreciation of the contingency of creaturehood.
This addition to an acclaimed series engages key thinkers in modern philosophy with a view to ministry and addresses the challenge of relativism in a creative, original way.

Invisible Girls : A Memoir
$16.99A casual meeting on a train with a group of Somali refugees leads a young cancer survivor on an adventure that gives her shattered life meaning, brings healing, and leads to the most unlikely of friendships.
Twenty-seven-year-old Sarah Thebarge had it all – a loving boyfriend, an Ivy League degree, and a successful career – when her life was derailed by an unthinkable diagnosis: aggressive breast cancer. After surviving the grueling treatments – though just barely – Sarah moved to Portland, Oregon to start over. There, a chance encounter with an exhausted African mother and her daughters transformed her life again.
A Somali refugee whose husband had left her, Hadhi was struggling to raise five young daughters, half a world a way from her war-torn homeland. Alone in a strange country, Hadhi and the girls were on the brink of starvation in their own home, “invisible” to their neighbors and to the world. As Sarah helped Hadhi and the girls navigate American life, her outreach to the family became a source of courage and a lifeline for herself.
Poignant, at times shattering, Sarah Thebarge’s riveting memoir invites readers to engage in her story of finding connection, love, and redemption in the most unexpected places.

Bibliography
IndexAdditional Info
In this study in three-dimensional character reconstruction, Cornelis Bennema presents a new theory of character in the New Testament literature. Although character has been the subject of focused literary-critical study of the New Testament since the 1970s, Bennema observes that there is still no consensus regarding how character should be understood in contemporary literary theory or in biblical studies.Many New Testament scholars seem to presume that characters in Greco-Roman literature are two-dimensional, “Aristotelian” figures, unlike the well-rounded, psychologized individuals who appear in modern fiction. They continue nevertheless to apply contemporary literary theory to characters in ancient writings. Bennema here offers a full, comprehensive, and non-reductionist theory for the analysis, classification, and evaluation of characters in the New Testament.

For Such A Time (Reprinted)
$23.52In 1944, blonde and blue-eyed Jewess Hadassah Benjamin feels abandoned by God when she is saved from a firing squad only to be handed over to a new enemy. Pressed into service by SS-Kommandant Colonel Aric von Schmidt at the transit camp of Theresienstadt in Czechoslovakia, she is able to hide behind the false identity of Stella Muller. However, in order to survive and maintain her cover as Aric’s secretary, she is forced to stand by as her own people are sent to Auschwitz.
Suspecting her employer is a man of hidden depths and sympathies, Stella cautiously appeals to him on behalf of those in the camp. Aric’s compassion gives her hope, and she finds herself battling a growing attraction for this man she knows she should despise as an enemy.
Stella pours herself into her efforts to keep even some of the camp’s prisoners safe, but she risks the revelation of her true identity with every attempt. When her bravery brings her to the point of the ultimate sacrifice, she has only her faith to lean upon. Perhaps God has placed her there for such a time as this, but how can she save her people when she is unable to save herself?
