Pilgrim Souls : A Collection Of Spiritual Autobiography
$33.95What is the source of personal writing? When do we begin to consider our own lives worthy of a story? These powerful and passionate selections of spiritual autobiography do not merely represent a vital literary tradition; they bring together fifty-eight writers whose search for truth and understanding has spanned over two millennia and several continents.
From Saint Augustine and Rabi’a to T. S. Eliot and Kathleen Norris, each of these autobiographers tells the story of the inner life as a spiritual quest. Although separated culturally, historically, and linguistically, they are united by their efforts to respond to Socrates’ challenge to “know thyself.” In four parts this insightful collection includes works by:
* Wanderers and seekers, like Leo Tolstoy and Thomas Merton, who feverishly explore many experiences and world views
* Pilgrims and missionaries, like Anne Bradstreet and David Livingstone, who unwaveringly pursue God and holiness in lives of self-sacrifice
* Mystics and visionaries, like Julian of Norwich and Annie Dillard, who discover the ecstasy of epiphany in a life of contemplation and seclusion
* Scholars and philosophers, like Simone Weil and Blaise Pascal, who seek to ground spiritual conviction in a rational certitude.Strong, deep, and enduring, the selections in this illuminating anthology remind us that “the unexamined life is not worth living” and speak to us with an immediacy that transcends time and space.

Tornado In A Junkyard
$19.9421 Chapters
Additional Info
This work by James Perloff attacks the myth of Darwinism from several angles. With evidence, or rather lack thereof, from the fossil record, Perloff demonstrates that there is no fossil support for evolution, as known by Darwin himself. Other arguments include why mutations cannot serve as the building block of evolution, why chance could not create even one of thousands of essential proteins for life, why radiometric dating techniques are not indisputable methods, and more. This work will serve as a resource for those interested in apologetics, and particularly creation versus evolution.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Romans And The People Of God A Print On Demand Title
$33.99A great deal of scholarly energy of late has been dedicated to the interpretation of Romans.
The intense debate concerning Paul and the law has led some scholars to reevaluate long-held positions with regard to Paul’s great letter, while other scholars are seeking fresh formulations of deep -rooted convictions. In addition, there are ongoing investigations into Paul’s sophisticated use of Old Testament traditions, his mastery of subtle rhetorical devices, his use of Spirit language, and his formulation of missiological principles. Classical themes such as the fatherhood of God and the divine sonship of Jesus are in continual need of refinement, as are the practical implications of the Pauline perspectives for contemporary living and ministry.All of these topics and others are dealt with in this superb collection of essays on Romans presented to Gordon D. Fee on the occasion of his 65th birthday. The contributors, themselves all New Testament scholars of international standing, come from a wide circle of Gordon’s friends and associates. Their explorations into various exegetical, theological, and pastoral aspects of Romans not only serve as a fitting tribute to Gordon’s own work in New Testament scholarship but also represent the very best studies available in this critical area of biblical research.
That this is a lively collection of essays is entirely appropriate for a very “lively” scholar and lecturer. Formerly of Southern California College, Wheaton College, and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Gordon has served for the last thirteen years as Professor of New Testament at Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia. His worldwide teaching/preaching ministry has taken him from the Philippines to Croatia, from India to Sweden, and many places in between. His many publications, catalogued at the back of this book, speak for themselves.
Never ashamed of his Pentecostal background, Gordon has made a significant mark on biblical scholarship by calling for and demonstrating in his own life the integration of heart and mind, Word and Spirit. The essays included in this symposium are intended both to honor that contribution and to further the kind of scholarship that has motivated the life work of this much loved and respected colleague.

Meeting Place (Reprinted)
$22.50Set along the rugged coastline of 18th century Canada in what was then called Acadia (now Nova Scotia and New Brunswick), The Meeting Place re-creates a world that was home to native Indians, French settlers, and English garrisons. Such diverse populations did not live in accord, however. Instead, they were isolated within their own groups by a brewing political tension under the difficult English rule.
Amid such chaotic times two women, both about to become brides and both trying to live lives of quiet peace, meet in a lush field of wildflowers. Louisa, a Frenchwoman, and Catherine, who is English, continue to meet secretly through the seasons, sharing both friendship and growing faith.
The outside world does not mirror their own tranquil happiness, and the dreaded crackdown by the English throne threatens far more than their growing bond. In the face of a heart-wrenching dilemma, Louisa and Catherine strive to maintain their faith and cling to their dreams of family and home.

The Brannon family of Culpeper County, Virginia – Abigail, a widow, and her four sons (Will, Mac, Titus, and Henry) and daughter (Cordelia) – work a good-sized, self-sufficient farm. The Brannons do not own slaves, but they are staunch supporters of the South in the conflict that is about to turn into war. Manassas centres around the lives of the Brannons in the winter and spring of 1861. As speculation grows that the North and South will soon be at war with each other, the Brannons have their own problems, not the least of which is the Fogarty clan, a large family of troublemakers in the area. Will Brannon is the county sheriff and kills one of the Fogartys while trying to arrest him for murder. Justifiable homicide or not, the Fogartys vow to avenge the loss of one of their own. While tensions mount in Culpeper County, news of Fort Sumter arrives. Will and two of his brothers join one of the Virginia militia units that quickly form. After a short period of training, the Brannons’ unit is rushed to defend the village of Manassas, a strategic railroad junction.When Union and Confederate armies engage in battle among the hillsides surrounding small, meandering Bull Run Creek, Will is forced to defend himself not only from the Union troops but also from the Fogarty brothers, who decide that the chaos of battle provides ideal circumstances for settling their score with him.

How You Play The Game
$24.99This is a story of passion and commitment and faith-qualities that drove one working-class kid to not only build a sports empire, but also to change the way the entire sports industry has done business. In How You Play the Game, Jerry Colangelo, in his own words, tells how he emerged from the tough streets of Chicago Heights as a high school and college sports star-how he helped create and build the Chicago Bulls-at a time when the NBA was a second-tier professional league, and two basketball teams had already failed in the Windy City-how he moved to Arizona and started the Phoenix Suns, an organization that fought its way to become the ninth richest franchise in all of sports-and how he then began baseball’s newest team, the Arizona Diamondbacks. This is a tale of determination, faith, and, most assuredly, good timing and good luck. In truth, this isn’t one story-but many. Jerry weaves together a lifetime of great moments in sports and tense times in business. Peppered with stories about players and coaches, including Charles Barkley and Connie Hawkins, Red Holzman, and Buck Showalter, as well as owners, general managers, investors, reporters, and more, How You Play the Game is truly an insider’s look at the sports world. Mr. Colangelo’s 30-year history mirrors the evolution of sports to the global marketing and media mega-industry it is today.

Inheriting Paradise : Meditations On Gardening
$15.50The garden is a personal place of retreat and delight and labor for many people. Gardening helps us collect ourselves, much as praying does. For rich and poor – it makes no difference – a garden is a place where body and soul are in harmony.
In Inheriting Paradise Vigen Guroian offers an abundant vision of the spiritual life found in the cultivation of God’s good creation. Capturing the earthiness and sacramental character of the Christian faith, these uplifting meditations bring together the experience of space and time through the cycle of the seasons in the garden and relate this fundamental human experience to the cycle of the church year and the Christian seasons of grace.The tilling of fresh earth; the sowing of seeds; the harvesting of rhubarb and roses, dillweed and daffodils – Guroian finds in the garden our most concrete connection with life and God’s gracious giving. His personal reflections on this connection, complemented here by delicate woodcut illustrations, offer a compelling entry into Christian spirituality.

Additional Info
Used as a compliment to walking or simply as a guide for faithful living, Meditations for Walking offers fresh insights into the words of Scripture and the discovery of one’s own spiritual path.During the process of “unbuilding” a path in the woods behind her house, Lynne Hinton uncovers spiritual truths relevant to living a life of faith. Using Scripture, meditations, prayers, and reflections on finding the path, this book offers fifty-two (52) entries to complement the exercise of anyone who walks–literally or spiritually.
Meditations for Walking is divided into four sections that reflect the four seasons. The entire development of a path is covered, from the beginning of finding the right place to start to the final stage of sharing the path with others.
For anyone who enjoys the activity of walking, this book creates possibilities of combining one’s ideas regarding faith and spirituality with the exercise of walking–a way to begin one’s walk in a spirit of devotion and reflection.

YearAdditional Info
The words that describe our deepest longings for God, our highest praise for God, and our most distant wanderings from God are often the starting points of our prayers. Prayers and Litanies for the Christian Seasons focuses each prayer or litany on one word in the vocabulary of our faith, moving through the liturgical year by voicing the language of our hearts.The book is divided into the six seasons of the Christian year: Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and Pentecost. Primarily designed for congregational worship, the words are appropriate for invocations, prayers of confession, pastoral prayers, and benedictions. A reader using the book for personal devotion will find the poetic style of the prayers fitting for moving through the year “word by word.”

Chapter 8. What Should We Say?Additional Info
When life is complex, hearts are broken, and dreams go unfulfilled, we do not need words that are misty-eyed with shallow sentimentality, starry-eyed with naive optimism, or dry-eyed with cold logic. Rather, we need words that are clear-eyed with realism and wide-eyed with hope.These are the kinds of words that fill the pages of Charles E. Poole’s bestselling title Is Life Fair? Good Words for Hard Times. They are not perfect words or final words. Rather they are hopeful, good words for the weary ones who must stumble around on the rugged terrain of hard times.
This second edition contains a new introduction by Poole to further provide words of hope for some of life’s toughest struggles, darkest tragedies, and deepest mysteries
