    • Loveliness Of Christ

      $15.00

      The Loveliness of Christ is a beautiful little gift book containing short extracts in which some of Rutherford’s most helpful thoughts are allowed to stand out in their unadorned wisdom and power. Those familiar with Andrew Bonar’s great nineteenth-century collection of the Letters of Samuel Rutherford will feel that this setting of brief quotations makes Rutherford’s words sparkle like diamonds on a dark cloth in a jeweller’s shop. It is not surprising then, that a hundred years ago, H. C. G. Moule, the Anglican Bishop of Durham, said in his simple but elegant commendation of the original edition of The Loveliness of Christ that it was ‘a small casket stored with many jewels’. It is the publisher’s wish that the reader, in meditating on these pages, will find here help, comfort, wise counsel, and spiritual compass, and to say with Rutherford, ‘Every day we may see some new thing in Christ. His love hath neither brim nor bottom.’

    • Shining Moments : Visions Of The Holy In Ordinary Lives

      $24.93

      The Bible is filled with stories of shining moments — Moses’ face shone as he came down from the mountain with the ten commandments; Jesus’ face changed and his clothes became dazzling white in a transfiguration witnessed by the disciples; Paul was blinded by a light and heard the voice of Christ on the road to Damascus — and many modern Christians have had equally life-changing experiences of the Lord’s power and presence.

      In this third volume of the acclaimed Visions series, 60 contributors share their authentic, intensely personal accounts of holy experiences. Rosmarie Trapp of the Sound of Music family tells of a moment of assurance when “the Lord visited me in a bright, golden light” whose “golden glow brought peace to my soul.” Ralph Milton, author of the historical novel Julian’s Cell, describes a visitation by his late sister: “We were singing together as we often did as children … I don’t recall ever having a memory or dream as clear and powerful as that one, and it left me with a sense of joy and peace.” Karen Steinke recounts the warmth she felt at the moment of her baptism: “I looked up to see the form of Jesus with an overpowering light surrounding him …”

      Whether they relate transforming moments like visions, healings, or visitations by angels, joyous moments like being in the presence of a loved one who has died, or just the simple sense of God’s presence while singing in church or sitting in a sunny meadow on a warm spring day, the vignettes in Shining Moments are a testament to the indescribable comfort and peace of an encounter with the divine. And because each story also illustrates a scripture passage, Shining Moments is a valuable preaching resource and an excellent catalyst for small group discussion. But even more, this book provides inspiring and heart-warming reading for personal devotion and spiritual growth.

    • 30 Days Of Love

      $16.86

      How can you love when you might not know the true meaning? This simple four-letter word is easily defined without context. However, once context is added, it changes. For instance, is the love God had for the world the same as the love you have for home cooking? Is love for a spouse the same as love for a child? The purpose of this book is to explore 30 different types of love through 30 different entertaining scenarios. But be forewarned- because God inspired this book, it will invoke thought and divine revelation, so read it at a slow pace. This book guarantees moments of reflection and insight. Also, because of its 30 different and independent accounts of love through poetry and short stories, it is an easy read and the perfect travel book. Just remember life and love are choice driven, so choose 30 Days of Love, and you will not be disappointed.

    • Ragman : And Other Cries Of Faith (Expanded)

      $12.99

      First published in 1984, and now newly revised and expanded, Ragman and Other Cries of Faith helped to establish Wangerin’s reputation as one of the most cutting-edge Christian writers on the market. It presents thirty-four interlocking “stories” in a variety of styles, ranging from gently reflective to incantatory. Together they embody a “story theology” that explores in fresh, powerful ways the meaning of faith, the persons of Christ, the community of faith, and the individual servant of faith. This collection interweaves short fiction, biblical stories, parables, autobiographical essays, prayers, meditations, poetry, drama, fable, and legend. The opening chapter, “Ragman” (still one of Wangerin’s most quoted writings), is a moving parable about Jesus encountered in a most unexpected place—as a rag seller on the streets of a modern city. For this new edition, the author has provided eleven new pieces, making this an all-new, updated definitive edition.

    • Sharing Visions

      $28.68

      The Bible is filled with many familiar stories of mystical experiences — Moses and the burning bush, Samuel in the temple, the angel’s visit to Mary, and Paul’s Damascus road experience are just a few examples — and many modern Christians have equally powerful experiences of the Lord’s life-changing power and presence.

      In this follow-up volume to Vision Stories, 84 contributors share their authentic, intensely personal accounts of encountering the divine, including visions, healing miracles, and answers to prayer. Each vignette manifests the indescribable joy, comfort, and peace we experience in God’s presence. And because each personal story also illustrates a scripture passage from Cycle C of the Revised Common Lectionary, Sharing Visions is an especially valuable resource for lectionary preaching. But even more, it’s inspiring reading for personal devotion and spiritual growth.

    • King Size Bed A Silk Tree And A Fry Pan

      $19.98

      Believing that the wisdom acquired in a lifetime is as much a part of a family’s legacy as are all of its material possessions, Phyllis Dolislager uses stories from her family’s lives to illustrate what’s truly important to her and her husband. Following the Judeo-Christian tradition of an Ethical Will or a Last Will and Testament, she put together this spiritual document, her Testament, for her family. Stories of trusting God, helping others, as well as struggles faced, make this book meaningful not only to her family but to all who read it. “Touching, real, and brutally honest. This book is not for people looking only for the ‘sunny-side’ of life, but for those searching for meaning regardless of the emotional challenges that present themselves.” -David Russell Miller, Ph.D., Psychologist and Counselor “A wonderful heritage to leave to your children and grandchildren.” -Suzanne Kavgian, East Chicago Public Library “Love, faith, humor, and drama of a family. We consistently see the stabilizing hand of God . . . does not diminish life’s complexity, but rather it shows us how to come to terms with it.” -Rev. Richard D. Long, Lakeland Christian School “An inspiring collection of well-written stories filled with faith and an enduring trust in God.” -Jean E. Holmes, President, Florida State Association, The National League of American Pen Women “This Testament provided me with the understanding of why my parents did what they did, which, in turn, revealed the truths that they tried to teach me.” -Fredrick G.

    • My Love Song To Jesus

      $16.86

      The main purpose of my writing this book is to let others know that there is a wonderful Jesus who still performs miracles today, if you will let Him into your heart and mind. If you don’t know Jesus as your personal Savior, this book gives some brief insights on how He has delivered my family and me over the years and tells you how you can ask Him into your life. These short stories (the miracles are true accounts) show what God has done and is still doing in my life and I want to tell others through this publication. I am not able to stand up and preach His Word, but I pray that this short booklet will teach others how to come to the saving grace of Jesus Christ. I wanted to express my love for Jesus in a way that maybe would make other people want to know Him. I just felt the need to have something not too in-depth or too long that you could give to a friend or family member who might need some words of encouragement.

    • Faith Of 50 Million

      $50.00

      Baseball and religion. Though many might say there is no connection, or at the very least wonder what kind of connection there might be, The Faith of Fifty Million will convince you that there is, indeed, a connection, and will help you to understand it better. A collection of essays by religion scholars who are baseball enthusiasts, and longtime fans of our national pastime, The Faith of Fifty Million looks at the cultural, social, and religious aspects of one of the most popular sports of all time.

      In nine chapters, or innings as one reviewer called them, The Faith of Fifty Million offers insightful essays probing the good, the bad and the ugly about our national pastime. Topics for the essays include: baseball as civil religion, Shoeless Joe Jackson as baseball’s scapegoat, baseball as a model of racial integration, the kingdom of baseball in America, a spiritual reminiscence of baseball, a comparison of the characters of Christy Mathewson (Matty) and Grover Cleveland Alexander (Ol’ Pete), connections between Hemingway’s Old Man and the Sea and baseball, women and baseball, baseball as metaphor, and comparisons between the history of baseball and Christian theology.

      Baseball and American culture are intertwined and have been since baseball’s inception. This book argues that the same is true of baseball and religion in America. Stanley Hauerwas, in the foreword notes that as a critic of civil religion in America he must “recognize that baseball, for better or worse, is the great exemplification of that [civil] religion.” And one of the essayists argues that baseball is the outworking of the liberal Protestant hope for the Kingdom of God to be realized in America. In the end, however, this book affirms that whatever the religious and social implications of baseball are, baseball is, ultimately, just a game. A game which reflects and impacts the values of both America and Christianity, but still a game. So step up to the plate and take a swing at The Faith of Fifty Million. You won’t be disappointed, and you certainly won’t strike out.

    • Pilgrim Souls : A Collection Of Spiritual Autobiography

      $33.95

      What 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.

      Rev. Beecher Hicks Jr. knows that great preaching and great storytelling go hand in hand. He believes in the power of imagination to teach us about God and about life, and he knows that nothing can spark the imagination like a story well told. In My Soul’s Been Anchored, he presents vivid portrayals of the biblical truth shining through people he has known and experiences he has had.

      Family, friends, church members, neighbors. . .well-loved faces peer from these pages. In their warm humanity they illustrate simple, profound lessons that touch us all. You’ll meet “Uncle Mugga,” a woman poor in money but rich in love for neighborhood children. Reverend Jones, whose dentures flew out over the pupil in mid-prayer. Mother Jackson, everybody’s mother at Second Baptist Church. Wilson McCray, who ran his shoes off praising God. Each person is a unique, creative snapshot — sometimes funny, sometimes poignant — of a living faith that helps us overcome obstacles, love God and each other more effectively, and make this world a better place.

      Dr. Hicks’ stories read the way his sermons preach — full of life, feeling, and beauty. My Soul’s Been Anchored captures in print the oral tradition of the great African-American preachers — the cadences, the rhythms, the passion, the urgency. And the vision. Dr. Hicks says, “This is a time to rise above our limitations and set our sights on those things that the world believes are beyond us.” He encourages us to reach for purpose, to put our faith in motion, to never give up on our potential or God’s promises. Here is storytelling at its finest from a gifted writer and preacher, with universal truths that speak to every culture.

    • Sheltering The Jews

      $38.33

      From the riveting testimonies and files housed at Yad Vashem, Holocaust historian Mordecai Paldiel presents dozens of stories of the circumstances and odds facing Jews inside Nazi-dominated Europe and those who would help them. Highlighting the aid and assistance of non-Jews, Paldiel demonstrates that the awesome efficiency of the Nazi death machine did not rule out heroism by ordinary people, in spite of risks. Stories and photos focused on conditions of sheltering, movement of people across borders, passing as a gentile, rescues of children, and dangers of detection epitomize the radical altruism, courage, and ingenuity that helped some Jews to survive the darkest moment in history.
