Fight Of The Faith
$11.75Are we going to let the Lord have all the territory of our being in every way? It is not so easy as saying, “Yes!” It becomes a daily challenge (the fight). We never know how difficult it is to let the Lord have His way until He lights upon some pet opinion of our self-life. But that is the issue. When the Lord has gained His full way in all His own, as He will at the end, the manifestation of the sons of God will take place, and the whole problem will have been solved, the problem of this universe.
What is the faith? The faith is this, that Jesus is the Son of God. But that is something more than a personal, objective relationship. That is a spiritual reality which has to come into expression through Him in the Church, in His members as representing the heavenly seed, coming to the fullness of Christ; which being accomplished, is to supplant and oust all this other seed which Satan has introduced into God’s universe. That is the faith. The faith comes down to this, namely, what we are spiritually in God’s universe. That is the faith.
Oh, the conflict is there, and the fight of the faith comes right in amongst Paul and Peter in principle. That is a terrible thing. The fight of the faith! Oh, you would never find Paul and Peter fighting one another over the deity of Christ. You would never find them in conflict over any of these fundamentals of Christianity; the inspiration of the Scriptures, the Person of the Lord Jesus, the coming again. Oh no. You would find them absolutely one on all those matters, however many they were. But here, strangely, we find Peter and Paul in conflict, one having to withstand the other to the face, and it is the faith which is involved.

No Argument For God
$25.99Countless apologetists over the centuries have labored to show that Christianity is not unreasonable. But, as John Wilkinson contends, neither is faith a matter of mere reason.

Read this book and break through the gridlock of apologetic arguments to a life-giving encounter with the God who satisfies our minds and seeks our good.

Outline Of New Testament Spirituality
$21.99It has become commonplace in contemporary culture to divorce spirituality from religion and regard the two as separate, competing entities. Yet Prosper Grech, an Augustinian father and professor of early Christian literature, recognizes no such distinction. The Christian religion, he finds, is infused with spirituality – which he defines not in a New Age sense but rather as “the believer’s full response to God’s offer of salvation in Christ.” In this book Grech presents the essential spiritual themes of Christian belief for meditation by any who seek to live out their Christian faith in its fullness.
In his compact Outline of New Testament Spirituality Grech considers a wealth of biblical texts, including Genesis, the Psalms, the Synoptic Gospels, Paul’s epistles, the letter to the Hebrews, and John’s Gospel, letters, and Apocalypse. He uncovers the New Testament church’s spiritual response to God’s gifts in each of these texts: its inherited response to God’s Old Testament covenant with Israel; its response to Jesus’ preaching, to the Paschal mystery of his death and resurrection, and to Christ the Light of the World; its response to its own place in history displayed in Acts and Revelation.
Weaving these various theological strands together, Grech traces the contours of a dynamic yet contemplative Christian spirituality – one that not only saturated the New Testament church but also continues to animate Christian life today.

*Offers a proven method for avoiding burnout for church leaders and members by doing the right things at the right timeThe author offers much-need help to overwhelmed leaders and shows them how to apply Miller’s seasonal/cyclical approach to church life.

Chasing The Wind
$11.99In the 1970s, the rock group Kansas sang about how life is dust in the wind. They could have been quoting the writer of Ecclesiastes whose ancient book of wisdom unwraps three key themes:
Meaningless, meaningless a look at the futility of wisdom, wishes and work.Chasing the wind how desire and deeds are found wanting.
Under the sun the curses and joys of toil, treasure and termination.
Despite the Teacher s pessimistic tone, in Chasing the Wind author Robert White discovers there s hope at the end of the matter.

Giant Killers
$16.99The motionless form of a giant of Gath lay face down on the battlefield of Shochoh and blood from his forehead seeped into the earth below his face. The great intimidator Goliath, champion of Philistia, lay motionless. His terrifying words had ceased. A smooth stone from a shepherd boy’s sling was embedded in his skull. Goliath was finished.
For the shepherd boy David, it was a giant-sized step into the awesome place of destiny that God had ordained for him. It was a step from obscurity and rejection to kingly dominion, fame and wealth, global and eternal influence. It was a step that was ultimately felt as Messiah took His place in history establishing His Kingdom on Earth. Like David, an army of giant killers has been prepared by God for this hour. Often with small flocks and in lonely places of isolation, rejection and insignificance, this body of men, women, boys and girls is receiving its training for the most fruitful, significant time ever planned for world history.
The giants we face are not going to destroy us. We are not their prey. They are ours. They are food for us. They are to be swallowed up by God’s anointed champions, by the mighty power indwelling us. They are “our breakfast”, strengthening our resolve to step up to each new day.
Giant Killers will empower YOU, the everyday believer as YOU take on the Giants that YOU face in life. Tim Hall is a dynamic evangelist who has a passion to see souls saved and lives changed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Walk with Tim Hall as he guides you to experience the miraculous power of God in your life.

Alpha And Omega
$15.61My name is Michael D. Garner Jr. and I have always been fascinated by the supernatural, especially by God and what he stands for. I was inspired to write this several years ago when I was watching a television program and one of the characters in the program said that there was no God or angels and then it hit me like a bolt of lightning. What if God and his angels were portrayed as they truly are which is powerful and majestic? I believe it would be great to portray God with his army of loyal angels doing battle against Satan and his angels and also Jesus making his triumphant return and defeat Satan once and for all. I have written this story not to add or take away from the Bible but to try and put a descriptive and beautiful picture to what may have happened in Heaven and what could happen in the final battle here on Earth. My story Alpha and Omega is a super natural action based story which draws its background from the Holy Bible and will open with the beginning in Heaven and the ongoing creation of Earth. However, sin begins with an angel named Lucifer who would soon become known as Satan which sparks the war in Heaven between the angels loyal to God and those angels loyal to Satan. This first war will lead Archangel Michael to face off against Satan in an epic struggle between good and evil. Alpha and Omega will end with Jesus’ return leading God’s army of angels against Satan’s army of demons which will also lead to the final climactic battle between Jesus and Satan. This story is filled with angels, demons, beasts, sword clashing and more, which will provide a detailed image to the reader.

Trapped By The Pre-Trib Rapture
$21.23If you are a Christian believer and you have exclusive faith in the pre-Tribulation Rapture, this book is for you. You need to consider its 7 Rapture timing secrets. This book presents, in simple balanced logical steps, the major Biblical inferences for the pre-Trib and the post-Trib Rapture theories. The author does not dogmatically preach only one of the theories; rather he proposes that believers should balance their Rapture faith based on the various strengths of the evidence for each theory. The book gives a fair presentation of the two major theories, and then asks the reader to make an informed evaluation and only then apportion Rapture faith. It is the author’s opinion that a dogmatic 100% faith in any one of the Rapture theories is not justified and could in the future be dangerous to spiritual stability. In the Sections explaining the post-Tribulation Rapture inferences, Dr. True presents evidence that the “7-year” portion of the “Future” section of the book of Revelation (6:1-20:6) describes 7 self-contained concurrent narratives, each ending with YHWH’s wrath and the 24-hour Day of the Lord. He also presents a theory about the “mystery” in chapter 10. Dr. True has retired from his formal career as a licensed physician and a board certified psychiatrist. He likes to say he is a sinner in recovery, not unlike alcoholics who know they must continue practicing recovery. He became a believer at age 12, the oldest of 7 siblings in a blended family. Secular education in the absence of enlightened teachers led to a period of agnosticism and unenlightened selfishness. A serious re-evaluation in mid-life led back to the solid rock of a historical risen Savior/Creator. Ever the oldest brother therapist, his concern is that fellow believers not stumble on paths strewn with unnecessary dogmatism.

Gleanings From Genesis
$24.98This book is the first in a series of books dealing with many very familiar Old Testament Stories and looking beyond the stories and finding the messages that God has for us today. The Bible is a timeless book. And it has had a relevant message for every generation since God’s Holy Spirit breathed those words into to ears and minds of the writers of old. “Gleanings from Genesis” deals with the first nineteen stories in this series and I hope that each of them will bring you into a deeper understanding of just how relevant these stories are in your life today. “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NLT) Rev. Anthony Iannucci has been an Ordained Minister for over thirty six years. During this time he as ministered as an International Evangelist and Gospel Singer, Bible Teacher, Pastor and Missionary Evangelist. In 2009 Rev.

Understanding The Bible
$52.48Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart provides readers a forum for more fully comprehending the Bible. Each book of the Bible tells a story that relates to the larger story, and to understand each book’s story it is important to understand the larger story, and vice versa. To do so, however, entails a careful reading of the entire Bible, grasping both the fact of the story and the spirit of the story. Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart provides prose summaries for helping the reader to understand and remember the fact of the story, and poetic summaries for helping the reader to experience the story and thereby to more readily ingest its spirit. Since Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart would be a bit lengthy under one cover, it is divided into two parts: Part One addresses The Old Testament, and Part Two addresses The New Testament. This publication is Part One. Part Two is forthcoming. Bob Dowell, English professor, retired from the University of Texas-Pan American in 1999 in order to devote full time to a project conceived while teaching his favorite course: “The Bible as Literature.” He envisioned developing a forum in which readers could readily engage in a head and heart understanding of the Bible. For a decade he worked on the project all the while piloting his production through a church sponsored bible study: “Back to the Bible with Dr. Bob.” The success of that study spoke convincingly to the efficacy of publishing the materials for purposes of reaching a wider audience. Thus, Dr. Bob’s vision becomes a reality in the publication of Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart. Fittingly, his first publication as a professor is an article in College English (1965) entitled “The Moment of Grace in the Fiction of Flannery O’Connor.”

Young Anointed And Empowered
$22.48In his seminal work, Young, Anointed and Empowered, Marcus L. Arrington presents an uplifting message of hope to teens and young adults worldwide. Through transparent articulation of his own journey and the journeys of well-known biblical figures, he confirms that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Some of his character highlights include David, Joseph and Daniel and his three friends. Arrington’s introduction begins with a brief survey of the ills that inundate the landscape of youthdom. He ends on a glorious note of triumph by assuring youths and those that care for youths that the enemies that confront them and seek to destroy them aren’t indestructible. In fact, Arrington informs some and reminds others that God Almighty is a timely deliverer who makes it His business to rescue the downtrodden, bruised and oppressed. After a riveting introduction, Arrington builds momentum in Chapter 1 where he asks poignantly, “whatcha lookin for?” He again informs and reminds youths that the “it” or “thing” their searching for is found in God through Jesus Christ. After examining the faith, commitment and courage of the aforesaid biblical figures in Chapters 4-6, Arrington continues his conversation by observing purity and the need to have a clean heart before God in chapter 7. He transitions from his emphasis on purity and addresses the politics of being called by God to do a work for God. In Chapter 8 Arrington, discusses empowerment. He creatively explains the ministry, person and work of the Holy Spirit and why all believers need His direction and help. Finally, Arrington concludes his conversation with a heartfelt observation of the truth that greatness in life is preceded by the tandem of humility and obedience to God.

Gods Truth About The End Of Time
$38.60Arnold makes no claim to be anyone special, but just an avid bible student. When it comes to bible prophecy, he doesn’t believe anyone is more qualified than another. Arnold has a passion for Bible prophecy, and he knows he is not alone. His studies began when he first read the Book of Revelation over 35 years ago, and has been studying it ever since. His book, “God’s Truth About the End of Time”, is different from anything you have read before, and a must read for anyone interested in this time period. Most people know about the destruction that takes place, but it is so much more. This book shows us that this time period is God’s design, and must take place in its proper order. Arnold has divided this book into three parts. The first part is a detailed explanation of the Book of Revelation. Once you finish this part, you will be able to read through the Book of Revelation, and understand it. The second part gives the reader the timeline for the events that take place. Some of the events included in this part, is the return of Jesus, what Satan will do when he is cast out of heaven, how the rapture takes place, and of course the destruction and wars. The third part of this book is a paraphrased unsealed version of the Book of Daniel. Inside this part you will understand the continuous timeline prophecy from Ancient Babylon to the end of time as we know it.

Teachers Guide To Understanding The End Times (Teacher’s Guide)
$6.99The Rapture, the Antichrist, Armageddon, and the Day of Judgment
End-times images are everywhere from books, movies, to video games. Curiosity about the last days is rampant, and people are asking all kinds of questions: “Who is the Antichrist?” “Will Jesus really rapture his church?” “What is the role, if any, of the nation of Israel?” And most importantly, “Are we living in the end times?”
In this insightful book, Samuel Powell explores all these questions and more. He traces end-times beliefs from the days of the Old Testament to today and explains the origins of the most popular ideas. Drawing on his theological expertise, Dr. Powell then offers and alternative approach to interpreting biblical prophecies that takes into account the Bible’s purpose. He explains that the deeper meaning of prophetic scriptures is often overlooked in favor of more popular and provocative interpretations.
An excellent resource for pastors, teachers, and small-group leaders, this concise book dispels much of the confusion surrounding end-times thinking. As an added bonus, the book includes a chapter listing the top mistakes made about the end times, along with a helpful glossary.

Putting Your Past In Its Place
$16.99Lives grind to a halt when people don’t know how to relate to their past. Some believe “the past is nothing” and attempt to suppress the brokenness again and again. Others miss out on renewal and change by making the past more important than their present and future. Neither approach moves people toward healing or hope.
Pastor and biblical counselor Stephen Viars introduces a third way to view one’s personal history-by exploring the role of the past as God intended. Using Scripture to lead readers forward, Viars provides practical measures to:
*understand the important place “the past” is given in Scripture
*replace guilt and despair with forgiveness and hope
*turn failures into stepping stones for growthThis motivating, compassionate resource is for anyone ready to review and release the past so that God can transform their behaviors, relationships, and their ability to hope in a future.

Souls In Full Sail

Making Of The New Testament (Reprinted)
$37.99The story of the making of the New Testament is one in which scrolls bumped across cobbled Roman roads and pitched through rolling Mediterranean seas, finally finding their destinations in stuffy, dimly lit Christian house churches in Corinth or Colossae. There they were read aloud and reread, handled and copied, forwarded and collected, studied and treasured. And eventually they were brought together to make up our New Testament. This revised and expanded edition of The Making of the New Testament is a textbook introduction to the origin, collection, copying and canonizing of the New Testament documents. Like shrewd detectives reading subtle whispers of evidence, biblical scholars have studied the trail of clues and pieced together the story of these books. Arthur Patzia tells the story, answering our many questions:
How were books and documents produced in the first century?
What motivated the early Christians to commit teaching and narrative and vision to papyrus?
How were the stories and sayings of Jesus circulated, handed down and shaped into Gospels?
What do we know about ancient letter writing, secretaries and “copy shops”?
Why were four Gospels included instead of just one?
How were Paul’s letters, sent here and there, gathered into a single collection?
Who decided–and by what criteria–which documents would be included in the New Testament?Explore these questions and more about these Scriptures whose everyday, gritty story rings true to their extraordinary message: the palpable mystery of the Word made flesh.
