Mary And Me
$12.49Add to cartThe title, “Mary and Me,” refers to Mary Magdalene, a prostitute written about in the Bible. Her story is found in the four Gospels; Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. She became a dedicated follower of Jesus after He cast seven devils from her. Of all the people in the Bible, she is the one with whom I feel strongest kinship. Not a lot is revealed about her life, but I have a feeling that it was filled with a form of pain and suffering very similar to mine. Similar also, to the pain felt by thousands of other women who have experienced abuse and the need to feel loved. Mary Magdalene found the only true love in the arms of our Savior. He delivered us from the pain and loneliness of our dark existence. The love Mary felt for Jesus was nothing at all like what “The DaVinci Code” would have you believe. Her love was pure, sweet, and innocent-a spiritual love for the One who delivered her from the evil that had enveloped her. Only those who have experienced such a life transformation can understand the love she felt toward Jesus. I do understand it. It is my hope that this book will help lead others out of the pain and lies that hold their lives hostage and into the loving arms of Jesus Christ. These arms stand ready to replace the sad darkness with a supernatural radiance. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for saving Mary Magdalene. Her story can help the rest of us see that no matter what our life has been, we can still receive Your forgiveness and saving grace. I was dirty inside and out, yet You loved even me!

Esther Pamphlet
$4.99Add to cartThe Queen Esther Pamphlet is an excellent overview of the story of Queen Esther in the Bible.
Esther’s story asks the important question: Where is God when things go wrong?
It’s easy to characterize Queen Esther as the lucky orphan girl who won the heart of the king. But in reality, she was a young woman with a tragic background and dangerous secret that could cost her life and the lives of her family. She was married to King Ahasuerus (King Xerxes) who destroyed peoples’ lives on a whim and had a history of killing people close to him. Worse still, the king’s favorite counselor and chief advisor, Haman, was a mortal enemy of Esther and Mordecai’s family.
Esther had to keep a low profile, keeping her secret, and hoping her enemy wouldn’t make the connection. For Esther, life was unfair. But her story brings a message of hope to all who face trouble by showing how God works even through the fears and dangers. There can be happy endings in perilous times! This basic overview of Esther and the biblical and cultural insights is fantastic for a Queen Esther Bible study, Sunday school class, or small group discussion. 14 panels, fits inside most Bibles, 8.5 x 5.5 inches, unfolds to 38 inches long.

In this unique testament, women and their encounters with Jesus provide the framework for the central message of Jesus.

$15.99Add to cartIn the first and best-selling Great Lives book, Great Lives: David, Dr. Swindoll explores the Old Testament shepherd, king, and psalmist, to answer the question, “What does it mean to be someone after God’s own heart?” In many ways he was a most extraordinary man-intelligent, handsome, abundantly gifted as a poet, musician, warrior, and administrator. Yet in other ways he was a most ordinary man-often gripped by destructive passion, rocked by family chaos and personal tragedy, and motivated by political expediency. How did David become the national hero of God’s chosen people? Why is he the one character in the Bible described as a “man after God’s own heart”? Chuck Swindoll explores the many facets of David-from his teenaged years and dysfunctional family life to his overwhelming passion for God.

Daughters Of Miiam
$29.00Add to cartThere are untold numbers of female prophets hiding in the masculine grammar and androcentric focus of the Hebrew scriptures. There are women-prophets in the communities around biblical Israel, existing for hundreds of years and even a thousand years before the Israelite and Judean prophets recorded their messages. The rabbinic and Christian fathers analyzed and found more women in the scriptures who function as prophets than the biblical authors identify. All of these female prophets have an intimate connection with the God of Israel; they express that connection by singing, dancing, drumming, speaking with and for God, waging war, performing miracles, exercising statecraft, and giving birth. Each of them is a daughter of Miriam, the mother of all women-prophets.
Women prophets gave powerful voice to Yahwist faith at the formative moments in ancient Israel’s development, and were expected in biblical visions of the future. Now they come to the foreground as Wilda C. Gafney explores prophetic practices in ancient Israel, different models for women’s sacred roles in the Near Eastern environment, and changing understandings of women’s leadership in early and rabbinic Judaism as well.

Lost Gospel Of Judas
$19.99Add to cartWith the discovery of the Gospel of Judas came an outpouring of hyperbolic language, both negative and positive. Alongside the overwhelming opinions of historians and scholars was the quiet bewilderment of people who simply weren’t sure what to think, confusion that wasn’t helped by vast media attention. In The Lost Gospel of Judas, Stanley Porter and Gordon Heath attempt to set the record straight. They begin with a look at the initial responses to the announcement of the gospel’s existence, then provide a brief history of Judas himself as seen in the New Testament and in church history, and of Gnostic philosophy. Further sections consider other recent textual finds and examine the discovery, content, and authenticity of the gospel. They also delve into the relationship this new gospel has with the New Testament canon and contemplate the “Lucky Winner” theory of canonical history. The Lost Gospel of Judas sifts through all the evidence, presenting the results with more than enough scholarship to be respected and enough clarity to be easily understood.

Liberating Paul : The Justice Of God And The Politics Of The Apostle
$34.00Add to cartFor centuries the apostle Paul has been invoked to justify oppression – whether on behalf of slavery, to enforce unquestioned obedience to the state, to silence women, or to legitimate anti-Semitism. To interpret Paul is thus to set foot on a terrible battleground between spiritual forces. But as Neil Elliott argues, the struggle to liberate human beings from the power of Death requires “Liberating Paul” from his enthrallment to that power. In this book, Elliott shows that what many people experience as the scandal of Paul is the unfortunate consequence of the way Paul has usually been read, or rather misread, in the churches.
In the first half of the book, Elliott examines the many texts historically interpreted to support oppression or maintain the status quo. He shows how often Paul’s authentic message has been interpreted in the light of later pseudo-Pauline writings.
In Part Two, Elliott applies a “political key” to the interpretation of Paul. Though subsequent centuries have turned the cross into a symbol of Christian piety, Elliott forcefully reminds us that in Paul’s time this was the Roman mode of executing rebellious slaves, a fact that has profound political implications.
Under Elliott’s examination, a startlingly new image of Paul begins to emerge, liberated from layers of false interpretation, and free to speak a liberating and challenging word to our world today.

Nimrod : Darkness In The Cradle Of Civilization
$21.99Add to cartThe Bible barely mentions his name, but people of antiquity knew him well. Ancient historians recorded substantial information about him. Who was Nimrod? How could such a man be of such importance to today’s believer? God’s history is replete with accounts of His followers suffering terrible persecution. People of today’s world are largely unaware of a lesser-known story, written by the blood of many believers at a time following God’s destruction of the Old World. Nimrod was born into a New World, recently recreated by God. This virgin creation was untainted by the wickedness of the Old World. However, innocence did not last long. Eight people had traveled God’s floodwaters of judgment in the security of His ark, but the curse of sin still tainted their souls. The prince of darkness wasted no time sowing seeds of rebellion in fertile hearts. He handpicked Nimrod to transform the New World into a cauldron of rebellion. The post-flood world began in present-day Iraq. Several cities conquered by Nimrod are still in existence today. The events happening in present-day Iraq are not coincidental. The world will witness more conflict and fulfilled Bible prophecy in this land-until God’s Seed returns to fulfill the ancient prophecy recorded in Genesis 3:15.

Mary : The Imagination Of Her Heart
$14.95Add to cartChristians from liturgical traditions like Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy have long venerated Jesus’ mother Mary as a miraculous intercessor, icon of holy life and God’s closest human relative. Believers from Protestant denominations, on the other hand, have attempted to appreciate Mary within the boundaries of what is known about her from the New Testament, seeing her as worthy of respect but not devotion. In this study of Mary as prophet, matriarch, theologian, disciple, intercessor and paradigm, Duckworth, an Episcopal priest and poet, encourages readers to approach her from the classic Anglican perspective of the middle way, which “allows us to understand Mary as a model, a pattern, a paradigm and, as such, a soul friend as we proceed toward the perfection that is Christ.” It may be jarring for more conservative readers to discover that Duckworth views the Gospels not as historical documents, but as witnesses of faith anchored in the “truth” of myth and folklore. On the other hand, her evident affection for the subject and her even-handed approach to some of the more controversial aspects of Marian devotion will appeal to those seeking a well-rounded portrait of one of the major figures in Christian history and worship. Each meditation is enriched by personal anecdotes, Duckworth’s poetry and her multicultural perspective on art history, folklore and Marian tradition.

Nineveh Or Bust

So following God takes hard work and great faith but always leads to eternity advancement!

This book examines Jonah’s autobiography, including his rebellion, his experience in the belly of the large fish, his ministry in Nineveh, and his reaction after 120,000 repented and turned to God. The author provides convincing evidence to arguments that have caused some to doubt the veracity of Jonah’s encounters at sea! Finally, you will see God’s grace and compassion on a godless people as an entire city repented. In contrast, you will see how unloving and merciless Jonah was as he complained about the Assyrians’ redemption. You will be surprised by God’s response to his enlisted servant!
