If You Get There Before I Do
$41.32Storm Clouds Gathering …
In contrast to these busy first few weeks of establishing back-to-school routines, as well as the uncertainty of medical tests for Kjrsten, I reflected back on the quiet respite we’d had over the past summer.
One of our favorite summer activities was to sit on the long, covered front porch of our home and watch the storms as they rolled in from the west across Clear Creek. We’d listen for the thunder and see the lightning striking at the bottom of the hill as the storm climbed upward and through the cornfield to the edge of our yard. We were relieved as it rumbled noisily over the top of our house without leaving any damage as it continued its steady march to the east.
Little did we know what kind of storm was brewing for our perfect little family.

New Testament : Its Background Growth And Content
$35.99This text is a classic by one of America’s most widely respected New Testament scholars. It provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to the New Testament. In a straightforward and understandable style–without distortion or oversimplification–Prof. Metzger closely examines the historical background and content of the New Testament and details the role of scribes and translators in handing the Scriptures down through the centuries. Utilizing the finest modern scholarship, Dr. Metzger looks at the people, societies, and events that produced the New Testament. Palestinian Judaism, Greco-Roman paganism, sources of our knowledge of Jesus Christ, essential aspects of Christ’s teaching, sources and chronology of the apostolic age, the work of Paul, the general letters, and the Book of Revelation are all clearly illuminated. The Second edition of this book added an appendix on the formation of the canon of the New Testament and the work of scribes. The third edition will represent a substantial update of the 1965 text based on the New Revised Standard Version. In addition to stylistic changes, the author updates the text regarding research on the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi tractates. This edition adds a glossary, 30 graphics and photos, and is resized to a larger 6×9 page.

Heaven On Earth
$18.99Many approach the Beatitudes as if they were a list of steps to be taken on the road to personal happiness. Or buttons to be pushed to secure God’s favor in pursuit of one’s own agenda.
But when we see what ws transpiring in Matthew 5, we realize the Beatitudes are less about what we do and more about what God is doing – what God values, how God operates, what God is up to in our world.
The Beatitudes are Jesus’ declaration of where “the good life” is. They comprise an invitation to immerse ourselves in the good life and experience a river of joy running through us to transform the world around us.

Next Door Savior
$19.99We applaud men for doing good things.
We enshrine God for doing great things.
But what about a man who does God things?
One thing is certain. We can’t ignore him. If these moments are factual, if the claim of Christ is actual, then he was, at once, man and God.
The single most significant person who ever lived. Forget MVP. He is the entire league. The head of the parade? Hardly. No one else shares the street. Who comes close? Humanity’s best and brightest fade like dime-store rubies next to him.
Dismiss him? We can’t. Resist him? Equally difficult. Why would we want to?
Don’t we need a God-man Savior? A just-God Jesus could make us, but not understand us. A just-man Jesus could love us, but never save us. But a God-man Jesus?
Near enough to touch. Strong enough to trust. A next door Savior.

Picture a gigantic cruise ship filled with happy people. It’s the S.S. Evangelical Gospel. In the midst of their fun and excitement, passengers have not noticed holes in the ship’s side under the water line. Well-meaning leaders are attempting to plug these holes with new methods, technology, social activism and cultural savvy. All these are important, yet the structure of the ship remains compromised by years of neglect.” In this thoroughly revised fourth edition of the now classic Tell the Truth, Will Metzger reinstate the truth framework necessary for the survival of evangelicalism. Biblical illiteracy among evangelicals is on the rise. Theological discernment between truth and error is increasingly elusive. We need to be recalibrated not to the changing times but to the changeless gospel. As useful as it is passionate, Tell the Truth will refocus and re-energize a whole new generation to communicate the whole gospel, wholly by grace, truthfully and lovingly.

Real Life : A Christianity Worth Living Out
$24.99What does it mean to follow Jesus? And how should we help others become more like him? Once upon a time, being a Christian seemed clear. Say these words, pray these prayers, do these things. But out in the real world, following Jesus feels more nebulous. What’s the point? That’s Stephen’s struggle in these pages as he wonders if he has missed his calling. In this compelling narrative, James Choung explores what it means to follow Jesus in the real world. Is Christianity something you just believe in, or can it be something you actually live out? Engineer Stephen wants to encourage his younger colleague Jared in his spiritual journey, but both feel at a loss. Stephen’s friend Bridget offers insights on how Boomers, Xers, Millennials and younger generations approach spiritual questions, with implications for discipleship, community and service. Together they walk through deepening stages of faith as they discern how God is calling them to live. Join Stephen, Bridget and Jared on their journey of following Jesus, as they discover what it means to move from skeptic to world-changer. And find new pathways for Christian discipleship and disciplemaking in a world yearning for hope.

Chasing The Divine In The Holy Land
$21.99Do you ever wonder what it would be like to trace the footsteps of Jesus in the Holy Land — to swim in the Sea of Galilee, to walk the Via Dolorosa, to kneel on Golgotha? Or maybe you’ve already visited the Holy Land and you know what a life-changing experience it is. If so, then this book is for you.
When Ruth Everhart was given the opportunity to travel to the Holy Land as one of several ministers taking part in a documentary about pilgrimage, she jumped at the opportunity. Little did she know just how demanding — yet, ultimately, rewarding — her transformation from Presbyterian minister, wife, and mom to pilgrim would be. Candid, down-to-earth, and delightful, Ruth recounts her experiences in Chasing the Divine in the Holy Land, inviting readers to journey alongside her on an unforgettable Holy Land pilgrimage.

1-2 Timothy And Titus
$37.99If Paul didn’t write the Pastoral Epistles, how can we preach from them — and why should we? The academy’s queries about the authorship of the Pastorals have had a deleterious result in the academy, Robert Wall believes, with a trickle-down effect among the church’s clergy who rarely teach or preach from these letters. In this paragraph-by-paragraph theological commentary on 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus Wall powerfully demonstrates the ongoing relevance and authority of these canonical epistles for the church today. Uniquely, Wall applies a “Rule of Faith” methodology — five core beliefs articulated in Tertullian’s Prescription Against Heretics — for interpreting the texts as sacred Scripture. Also, interspersed throughout the commentary are case studies, stories of prominent Christian leaders and faith communities that vividly instantiate key themes of the Pastorals. Wall’s innovative yet reverent approach will revive the interest of students, pastors, and other Christian leaders in the Pastoral Epistles.

Esther : Royal Rescue (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99There are times in our lives when we question whether God truly loves us, whether He is really in control of the world, whether He knows what He is doing, whether He even notices what is happening to us.
These are exactly the kind of questions that God’s people in Esther’s day must have been asking. Not only were they exiled from their home, the land that had been promised to them by God, but they were facing ethnic cleansing on an unprecedented scale.
The story of Esther reveals that whatever the appearances, God is in control. Although the enemies of God and His people are many and powerful, their plans are doomed. God’s plans are the ones that will triumph. He delights in answering His people’s prayers often in most unexpected ways.
As He delivered the Jews of Esther’s day from seemingly unstoppable destruction, so He has and will deliver all who turn to Him in Christ. He is to be trusted in all situations at all times.

Nonprescription Drugs In Pregnancy
$19.95A Smart Start Press Title
Many women of child-bearing age buy over-the-counter medications for a variety of disorders, such as seasonal allergies, colds, headaches, and others. Whether planning their pregnancy or already pregnant, they want to know if these nonprescription drugs are safe for unborn babies. All nonprescription drugs contain one or more active ingredients that treat the patient’s symptoms and are actually drugs themselves. Twenty to thirty years ago, many of these active ingredients were FDA-approved prescription drugs. At the time, those prescription drugs were assigned a Pregnancy Risk Category: A, B, C, D, or X. Although some of these drugs switched from prescription to nonprescription status, meaning they could be sold over-the-counter, their Pregnancy Risk Categories still applied. This unique book contains the FDA’s Pregnancy Risk Categories for the active ingredients in five hundred nonprescription drugs, and includes a procedure for locating risk categories for any drug that isn’t in the book.

Boaz Prayer : Ruth Romance Redemption And Restoration
$15.95Have you ever discovered priceless gems in the most strangest of places? The Boaz Prayer is one of those priceless gems you will find in the most strangest of places- hidden in the deep, rugged, dark corners of a place called nowhere.

This is so especially when you realize that Ruth lived during the days when the judges governed and utter hopelessness filled the land. What an array of hope the Boaz Prayer affords to Ruth in particular and to many generations later. In spite of the bleak conditions of our times we need to be reminded that God still answers Boaz-like prayers. For those who will pray daring prayers, God can still turn our tragedies into triumphs, our tests into testimonies, our defeats into destiny and our mess into a message of Romance, Redemption and Restoration.

Her cousin, Prince Peter, a fine young prince-knight from Heartland, is on a quest to rescue his beloved Cassandra and the other female serfs from the ruthless clutches of this Rogue’s dark knights, who have turned from following the chivalry code. He fights his own father, who has succumbed to this darkness. The torment of love and hate within him ignite in one single flame toward the ancient truth and a friend whose maps may just be the answer to finding the helpless. This friend has been taken captive by his father, and the maps, where are they to be found?

Worthy To Escape
$57.26Many Christians follow the popular pretribulation rapture view. They expect that Jesus will rescue them “just-intime” before the tribulations of the Antichrist. However, few people realize that every single biblical promise of being raptured at that time is conditional on personal spiritual readiness. Eminent Christian leaders such as A.B. Simpson, founder of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, as well as Hudson Taylor, founder of the China Inland Mission, first taught this biblical perspective of a conditional rapture.
In their captivating account, the authors take their readers on a fascinating journey through the pages of the Bible, showing how biblical prophecies from Daniel to Revelation point toward not just one but two raptures: a conditional first fruits rapture for the ready “wise virgins” of the church, and a later rapture for “foolish virgin” believers who are spiritually unprepared.
Based on rigorous biblical exegesis and conservative scholarship, the authors systematically examine inconsistencies within the pretribulational rapture doctrine. They point out how these contradictions can be resolved through a two-fold rapture, which draws on insights from the increasingly popular pre-wrath rapture position. Packed with fresh scriptural insights, this book will prepare and equip you for the times ahead!

Faith Obedience And Sacrifice
$12.00How many of us are worn down by the feeling of having done too much sin, mostly forgetting that we are not saved by our own actions, but by the grace and gift of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice?
Faith, Obedience, and Sacrifice, by V. D. Williams, is a short, powerful exposition of the message of Christianity: The cross is not so much about a rallying point for religion as much as a gift offered to humanity for a chance to finally reconcile with God.
Considering the number of religious systems and their methods, it is easy enough to lose sense of what lies at their core: finding the best means to mend ways with God, however we call him.
Faith, Obedience, and Sacrifice is a fresh, undiluted take on Christianity and the compelling fundamentals that made it the dominant religion it is today.

Paul And Union With Christ
$34.99Paul and Union with Christ fills the gap for biblical scholars, theologians, and pastors pondering and debating the meaning of union with Christ. Following a selective survey of the scholarly work on union with Christ through the twentieth century to the present day, Greek scholar Constantine Campbell carefully examines every occurrence of the phrases ‘in Christ’, ‘with Christ’, ‘through Christ’, ‘into Christ,’ and other related expressions, exegeting each passage in context and taking into account the unique lexical contribution of each Greek preposition. Campbell then builds a holistic portrayal of Paul’s thinking and engages contemporary theological discussions about union with Christ by employing his evidence-based understanding of the theme. This volume combines high-level scholarship and a concern for practical application of a topic currently debated in the academy and the church. More than a monograph, this book is a helpful reference tool for students, scholars, and pastors to consult its treatment of any particular instance of any phrase or metaphor that relates to union with Christ in the Pauline corpus.
