Food And Holiness
$21.23A Clay Bridges Press Title
Food & Holiness examines how something as commonplace as food can become an idol when we place it above our relationship with God. A subject often overlooked in Christian circles, author Charlene Ralph sheds light on the subtle but powerful temptation to idolize food.
How can we recognize if we are worshiping food? A key question to ask ourselves is: “Do I sometimes feel guilty about what I’m eating?”
Charlene shares her own personal journey, one in which she often answered “yes” to that question-until 2007, when she made a decision never to eat in conflict with her conscience again. Through years of growth and transformation, she has come to a place where her love for God far outweighs any attachment to food, and she rarely, if ever, feels guilty about what she eats.
Food & Holiness is the fruit of this ongoing journey, offering a roadmap to help others break free from the grip of food idols and learn to love God more deeply than anything else. Charlene’s prayer is that this book will guide you toward freedom and fulfillment in your relationship with both food and God.

Shift : Courageously Moving From Season To Season
$18.99Discover a renewed sense of your purpose and the courage to move from what is to what can be.
We have a tendency to think of our own situation in polarizing terms: good or bad, up or down. We fall into the trap of thinking things are one way or another. We overlook the fact that there are transition times, such as the seasons between graduation and the amazing job, between divorce and remarriage, between a failure and a success.
The key from getting from one season in life to the next is surviving the shift and recognizing that it’s the period between the mistake and the mastery. Between what happened today and who you become tomorrow. To make the most of the shift, you must be willing to embrace and accept the consequences of past events and relinquish your attempts to alter or compensate for them. You must be willing to shift your paradigm from victim to victor. From survivor to thriver, from loser to chooser.
Full of relatable stories, practical, easily applicable advice, and deep scriptural insights, The Shift helps readers survive these in-between seasons with the courage that comes only when you’re sure of God’s purpose for your life.
This newly updated paperback edition of this classic book has three new chapters that help readers go even further in surviving and thriving in the recent shifts in our culture, as well as encouraging them to shift into living a life of legacy and purpose.

God Of Story
$18.99Many of us have been taught to read Scripture as a collection of information that needs to be categorized, systematized, and analyzed verse by verse, concept by concept. But the Bible isn’t a jigsaw puzzle, and it wasn’t written in just Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. It was also written in the language of story. And as with every good story, we get to meet colorful characters, unravel mysteries, and see the world from a different point of view. It all makes more sense when understood from the perspective of storytelling.
In The God of Story, Daniel Schwabauer explores the narrative principles of theme, context, characterization, voice, and plot as a lens for understanding the cosmic story arc of God’s relationship to humanity. By including creative retellings of biblical stories, he demonstrates how to engage Scripture with imagination.
For a fresh approach to reading the Bible and discovering how its stories connect to your own, start by learning to see God as the master storyteller.

Raised In Splendor
$17.99When most ponder on the Christian walk, they will likely run up on terms such as justification, sanctification, and glorification. This famous trio points to the faith that justifies the believer, the life in which the believer is sanctified through the gaining of wisdom through the reading of Scripture, the testing of life in a broken world, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, but many simply view glorification as the final part of the journey, as if it does not have an important reality for the believer today.
We live in a world where the idea of being glorified is either viewed through the lens of something that will eventually come, but has little importance now, or has an overfocused importance where believers only focus on their entry into heaven. Both are wrongfooted. Pastor and Theologian Jason Alligood provides a message of hope for the thoughtful Christian today. In Raised in Splendor, Jason Alligood communicates the hope of glory that transcends the fears and frustrations of a secular age that not only points to the hope for the future glorification, but that this hope is one that can be enjoyed and appreciated today.

Former military pilot Hawk Beckett, seeking perspective after a personal catastrophe at his commanding officer’s suggestion, finds himself caught in the fiercest storm to hit the coast in a decade.

Dawn Of Grace
$17.99From her earliest days, Mary Magdalene has known fear and loss at a level so deep she has no hope of surfacing. Bound to the demons within her and incapable of freeing herself, Mary walks in shadow–until one day she encounters a healer, a rabbi who is radically different from the religious leaders and family members who could do nothing to help her. One touch from Jesus and Mary is never the same.
Now Mary’s one mission in life is to serve the one who freed her. She is determined never to leave his side, fearing that if she loses him, she’ll return to her former bondage. Even when the unthinkable happens and her savior is arrested and sentenced to execution, she cannot abandon him as so many others did. Let her be buried in his tomb, for she cannot live without him.
On the brink of despair, Mary is about to discover that while the life of faith is never perfect, perfect love casts out fear–and Jesus makes all things new.

Where Did TJ Go
$17.99When a baby is on the way, everyone gets excited, including the little girls and boys who will have a new baby brother or sister to teach, play with, and care for. But sometimes things don’t work out as expected. Sometimes a baby doesn’t thrive. Sometimes they die and sometimes they can’t even be born.
Such a loss is hard on everyone–especially young children who wonder what happened to their baby brother or sister. Where are they now? Are they safe? Do they feel sad too? What about all the wonderful things they would have done if they had lived? Will they get to do them in heaven?
After her sister’s family suffered the loss of a baby, bestselling author Annie F. Downs wrote a story for her nephew, Sam, about where his baby brother TJ went. Beautifully illustrated by Jennie Poh, Where Did TJ Go? helps grieving families explain what happened and what kind of experiences a child might be having in heaven with the God who loves them and makes everything good in its time. Tender and sincere, this story doesn’t shy away from the hurt even as it offers comfort and hope to those left behind.

Overdue Match
$17.99If the covers of every romance book ever published hadn’t convinced librarian Evangeline Kelly that she isn’t heroine material, her fiance calling off their wedding when she lost her hair to alopecia did. But what’s a girl head over heels for love to do when her feelings are unrequited? Matchmake, that’s what. Armed with library patrons’ check-out histories, she’s determined to make at least one love connection–even if it’s not her own.
Tattoo artist Tai Davis is used to people judging him with a single glance, so it doesn’t surprise him when the town’s quirky new librarian does the same thing and believes his bad-boy reputation without giving him a chance. He can’t help being intrigued by her, though, so when he discovers Evangeline’s secret matchmaking scheme, he’s not above striking a bargain with her. She just has to agree to one date with him for every time she uses his hometown knowledge to set up library patrons on a romantic rendezvous. The deal is made, but in the process, they both might learn you can’t judge a book–or each other–by the cover.
With humor, heart, and plenty of charm, Sarah Monzon presents a delightful romantic comedy that proves sometimes the best love stories are the ones we least expect.

It Is Finished
Original price was: $19.99.$12.97Current price is: $12.97.Now available in trade paper!
A Publishers Weekly and ECPA Bestseller
Across forty days of vivid storytelling, It Is Finished offers you a unique and vital roadmap to trace the power and necessity of the cross throughout the Bible, from the book of Genesis all the way to your present-day reality.
Through forty slices of the story of Calvary, master storyteller and vivid Bible teacher Charles Martin, will walk you back to the cross to look up at it from a different angle each day and ask the Father to reveal to you:
*What exactly did he mean when the dying Jesus said, “It is finished”–what was finished at the cross?
*When did what Jesus finish at the cross even begin?
*What does this man’s death 2,000 years ago have to do with me today?
*What is God offering at the cross that I so easily forget and take for granted?
*What do I not realize about myself that the Father God has never forgotten?
Whether it is your first, tenth, or ten thousandth time looking up at the cross of Christ, you can trust New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin, to wrap an arm around your shoulder, come alongside and walk with you as a fellow pilgrim headed in the same direction and answering the same question: “What will I do with this man, Jesus?”
Because before we can celebrate the resurrection, we need to backtrack to where Jesus has been, how He got there, and what His presence there accomplished. And while Satan can’t change what happened on that Friday, he has been working ever since to hide what happened there. To obscure the work of the Cross. To avert our eyes. But on this 40-day pilgrimage your eyes will open wide and your heart will race as you discover the answer to the question that can change your life, Lord, why me? Why would you endure the cross and despise the shame, for me?

$18.99Do you long to feel closer to God? Are you searching for a faith that’s more than just going through the motions?

*Discussion questions and reflective exercises.

Before You Go Any Higher
$19.99We long for mountaintop experiences, but they’re difficult to achieve and impossible to maintain without the rest, nourishment, and strength found in lush, life-giving valleys. GRAMMY Award winner Jonathan McReynolds shows us why having a valley mindset is not what you think–it’s about receiving God’s grace, love, and encouragement as His beloved child.
Life is full of mountains to ascend, driven by our dreams, ambitions, and callings. But it doesn’t take much for even the strongest climbers to grow weary or lose their way. It’s important to have a “mountain mindset” to help us establish goals, to make steady progress, to achieve success, to do big things for God. A great mission requires from us a little grind, a little hustle, a little competition. But also plenty of time in the valley.
Most people equate valley moments with difficulty and pain, but a “valley mentality” is different according to Jonathan McReynolds. He’s reached the mountaintop–GRAMMY Award, nationwide tours, millions of followers, and more–but he experienced more refreshment, rest, and encouragement from the Lord off the mountain. He writes, “The valley is not about finishing anything, studying anything, or doing anything, but simply being a child of God.” In Before You Climb Any Higher, readers will discover:
*Taking breaks from climbing is necessary for your mental health
*Ways to find rest, renewal, and authentic community in the valley
*Identity should never be wrapped up in success and accolades
*How to prepare for the mountain climb with lessons learned in the valley
*It’s possible to live abundantly in the valley and on the mountainWe are more than our accomplishments, more than our mountaintop accomplishments. We are sons and daughters of God, who is calling us to rest in the valley, to replenish our souls, to be formed by the Spirit, to discover abundant life that is found only in Him.

Bestselling author and pastor Craig Groeschel has walked through the valley of doubt himself. In The Benefit of Doubt Workbook, which accompanies the book of the same name, he reveals how asking questions, seeking answers, and wrestling with doubt can actually draw us closer to God. With his trademark humor, warmth, and lay-it-all-on-the-table attitude, Craig shares stories from his own life as well as the Bible to help us wrestle with–and find helpful answers to–questions fueling our doubt:
*What should I do when I doubt God’s goodness?
*Why doesn’t God answer my prayers?
*Why would God only provide one way to heaven?
*Why believe in Jesus when his followers are such hypocrites?
*Why does God sometimes feel so far away?
*Doesn’t science disprove the Bible?
*How do I know if what I believe is actually biblical?Doubt is a normal part of faith, but that doesn’t make it any less intimidating to navigate. So if you’re wrestling with doubts, keep walking, keep knocking, keep asking, and keep seeking. As Craig writes, “I believe everyone–whether a long-term committed Christian or a long-term committed atheist–struggles with doubts. The doubts of a Christ-follower can take the shape of benign curiosity or a malignant tumor. It seems more Christians today are struggling and questioning or deconstructing their faith. I understand these doubts and want to help. It is my hope that this message moves you into a life after doubt and that you experience the fullness of all God has for you.”

What If Jesus Was Serious About Justice
$18.99If God is love, then how do we make sense of the evil we see everywhere in the world?

The fifth in Jethani’s popular What If Jesus Was Serious? series, this guide includes the author’s hand-drawn illustrations in each accessible chapter.
Jethani examines the biblical understanding of justice as the restoration of right relationships both among people and between people and God.

Readers will emerge with a better understanding of God’s love, wrath, the cross, eternity, and more. In addition, Christians will find new ways to bridge the divide in the church over the importance of personal salvation and communal justice.

Dont Look Back
Original price was: $19.99.$13.97Current price is: $13.97.Move forward with hope instead of dwelling on the past.
There are times in life when we look back and feel desperate to make time stand still, especially when unexpected change happens and all we want is for things to go back to how they were. But we can’t stop the flow of life, and we can’t stop time. And looking back doesn’t enable us to go back. It just makes us stuck. In a place. In a space. In a memory. In a mindset. In a habit.
In Luke 17:32, Jesus drops three little words: “Remember Lot’s wife.” We don’t know her name, history, or story. All we know is that when she was fleeing Sodom and Gomorrah, she was told not to look back, and she did the one thing she was asked not to do. She looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. And out of the 170 women referred to in the Scriptures, she’s the only one Jesus told us to remember.
With a rallying cry to “Remember Lot’s wife,” Bible teacher, international speaker, activist, and bestselling author Christine Caine will motivate you to stop looking back, to get unstuck, and to keep moving forward into God’s promises and purpose for your life. In Don’t Look Back, Christine will help you to:
*Stop looking back and start looking to Jesus
*Invite Jesus in to help you get unstuck from the places and situations that keep you trapped
*Move on from where you are into all God’s plans, purposes, and promises for your life
*Look forward to the future and keep moving toward it in faith–especially when your world is nothing like it once wasJesus is beckoning us onward into the newness of what lies ahead. Stop disqualifying yourself by getting stuck in the past. Don’t Look Back will inspire you to move forward boldly.

How To Fast
$17.00We’ve forgotten how to fast, and it has not only cost us the potency of our prayers and profound benefits to our bodies but has ultimately disconnected us from a practice essential to the faith of the early saints and to our Lord Jesus Himself.

* engages the soul, serves the spirit, and benefits the body
* resets our biological rhythms and increases our physical well-being, even to the cellular level
* is the most holistically transformative experience a Christian can undertake
Whether you’re new to fasting or a seasoned practitioner, this book-which includes a daily fasting guide-provides invaluable insights that will renew your relationship with God and enrich your faith. Discover for yourself this life-changing gift!
