Prayer : The Cry For The Kingdom (Revised)
$19.99Add to cartBringing our needs and desires to God has always stood at the heart of Christian prayer. But why is petitioning God so important? In Prayer: The Cry for the Kingdom noted theologian Stanley Grenz points to petitionary prayer as a crucial way for us to be involved with God’s work in history. At the center of such prayer, Grenz argues, is the cry to God that his kingdom might come into the world.
Grenz explores key questions that many Christians ask: What does it mean to pray “according to God’s will”? Should we persist in petitioning God for our needs? Does prayer really influence God? In the process of addressing these questions, Grenz offers practical guidance on praying effectively and challenges the contemporary church to recapture what it means to be a church that prays.
Revised and completely rewritten, with the inclusion of additional material, and now featuring an insightful foreword by Eugene Peterson, Grenz’s Prayer: The Cry for the Kingdom will help readers from every Christian tradition to foster a richer personal and communal life of prayer.

Prayz In The Garden
$13.49Add to cartPrayz in the Garden is not just a book. It is a call. This book was possible because my ex-wife was given a vision of me when I was dying from a drug overdose.

In deep union at the master’s table we shall find purpose, for it is only at His table that it can be found. It is a lamentation in which the Father is bestowing upon us.

Surrendering To God
$17.99Add to cartDo you ever feel that prayer has become rote repetition, or that the simple prayers of childhood have lost their meaning?
In this life-changing little book, Rev. Keith Beasley-Topliffe shares his experience of praying the Covenant Prayer-a classic prayer that calls us to surrender completely to God. Line by line, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe uses the wisdom of the prayer of surrender as a guide for those who want to learn to trust God more. With honesty and gentle humor, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe shows us how simple prayers not only express our heart’s desires to God, but also open the doorway to deeper prayer and transformation.
“Abandonment to God is at the heart of Christian formation. Prayer is the means by which we surrender to God. Keith combines these two elements in a way that enables us to grow in grace through the regular use of this classic prayer.”
Dr. Steve Harper, Vice President
Asbury Theological SeminaryThe Covenant Prayer
I am no longer my own, but thine.
Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt;
put me to doing, put me to suffering;
let me be employed for thee or laid aside for thee,
exalted for thee or brought low for thee;
let me be full, let me be empty;
let me have all things, let me have nothing;
I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal.
And now, O glorious and blessed God,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
thou art mine, and I am thine.
So be it.
And the covenant which I have made on earth,
let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.Keith Beasley-Topliffe is the editor of The Upper Room Spiritual Classics and a major contributor to The Spiritual Formation Bible. He is the pastor of Fifth Street United Methodist Church in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Keith and his wife, Carola, who is also a United Methodist pastor, reside in Marysville, Pennsylvania.
“Surrendering to God is a rich spiritual resource. . . . These strikingly honest meditations offer both fresh challenge and encouragement in helping us examine our daily actions and attitudes toward work and possessions and how we deepen our trust in God’s guidance for all of life.”

At the heart of this struggle are the vital relationships we have with families, for it is from our parents_and from our children_that we most profoundly learn about ourselves as children of God.

Finally, the book concludes with touching stories of adult children of aging parents_that sometimes sad, sometimes joyous time when children must become parents to their own parents.

Gentle Words In A Raging Storm

Break Through Prayer
$18.99Add to cartPrayer is an essential part of the devoted Christian’s life, Cymbala (Fresh Faith) reminds readers, and the Bible sets forth numerous examples of faithful men and women who prayed constantly. In this inspirational guidebook for committed Christians, the author, the pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, writes that he has seen the power and comfort of prayer not only in the Bible but in his own life, as well as in the lives of his church members, many of whom were personally affected by the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Cymbala assures that God wants to hear and answer people’s prayers, and thus people should pray with “certainty” and with “confidence.” He gives guidelines for making effective prayers, and suggests that only supplicants who abide by “God’s spiritual laws” can expect to have their prayers answered. “An unforgiving spirit, bitterness, secret, sexual sins,” he writes, “can stymie our praying.” (This is the reason, he says, that he once refused to pray for a man in his Tabernacle-because he lived “in fornication” with his girlfriend.) Cymbala focuses largely on how to use prayer to become filled with joy and to cast away worries or fears, and he spends much of the book explaining how a life of faithful prayer can result in deep, lasting inner peace. Spiced with lively anecdotes-the heroin addict who found God; the disaffected young man who became a soapbox preacher-and punctuated with pullout quotations, Cymbala’s impassioned message should bring encouragement to the Christian faithful.

Called To Pray
$13.49Add to cartThis book is about sharing how a community school prayer outreach ministry is established by organizing prayer teams all over a city. Since many schools all over the United States have been attacked by the enemy through violence and other forms of crime, the author felt it necessary and imperative to send out a Call to Pray for our schools. On the other hand, it is a walkthrough of the actual steps that one can take to set up prayer teams within a city. The book points out what these teams can accomplish if they will pray. It gives the results of the past and present conditions of the schools and the community by submitting testimonies from various leaders and prayer team members in the city.
