Hidden Heroes : Transforming An Ordinary Life Into An Extraordinary Adventu
$31.23Have you ever seen a real hero? Not the kind on television or in the movies, but the quiet kind of individual who changes lives without people even noticing. These hidden heroes dwell on the streets of compassion and on the bridges of hope. They live in the hearts of those who have love for the unlovely and a right word when everyone else is silent. Cities survive, communities continue, and families stay together because of these hidden heroes who rush in when everyone else runs out. Larry Thompson believes we all have a hero hidden inside of us.What can we learn from the hidden heroes of the Bible? What can we find out about the hero hidden inside of our own hearts? “We encounter heroes hidden in every area of life-business, community, sports. What makes someone a hero? What causes an individual to strive beyond the everyday expectations and excel? In this book, my friend Larry Thompson uncovers the secrets of Hidden Heroes from ages ago and then applies a very contemporary lesson for success in this new century.” -H.WAYNE HUIZENGA Entrepreneur and President, Huizenga Holdings, Inc. “Hidden Heroes makes me remember people that have been very important to me in my 33-year career as a head coach in the National Football League. These are people you can count on who want nothing back in return. They make as much of a contribution as those who are recognized as stars. It’s important that we find time to praise their legacy.” -DON F. SHULA Winningest Coach in the NFL (Head Coach,Miami Dolphins, 1970-1995)

Nimrod : Darkness In The Cradle Of Civilization
$27.48The 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.

This fascinating books sifts the evidence and startlingly concludes that in the earliest sources Judas was not a traitor. While the name Judas Iscariot evokes horror among many people, Klassen argues persuasively that Judas may have meant no harm in handing over Jesus to the religious authorities. The book traces the ways in which Judas is portrayed by the four writers of the gospels, showing how the picture was increasingly demonized as the later gospels were written.This is the most important study in English of Judas within the context of first-century Judaism. Klassen shows by rich reference to literature of both the ancient period and later times how the concept of Judas as traitor emerged

Mary : The Imagination Of Her Heart
$14.95Christians 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
$27.48Resistantly Following God’s Calling God never calls us to something that takes little effort, is low risk, or will not have insignificant impact! So following God takes hard work and great faith but always leads to eternity advancement! Nineveh or Bust examines the life of the prophet Jonah and what happened once he received God’s call to minister to the heathen Assyrians in Nineveh. As we will see, Jonah did not respond positively; in fact, he resisted God’s calling-just as we do! 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!

Paul : A Jew On The Margins
$28.00Paul’s messianism put him at the margins of Pharisaism, his preaching placed him in tension with the Synagogue, and his Gospel set him on the outer border of Hellenistic religion. This book explores the tensions and creativity that Paul’s marginality let loose. In six short chapters, Roetzel explains Paul’s complex relationship to first century Judaism and elements of the early church. In so doing, he tackles a great many of the most disputed areas of Pauline theology: How can we speak of Paul as a convert? How far did Paul accept the apocalyptic myth? What are we to make of Paul’s theology of weakness? How far did Paul embrace pluralism? And how could Paul preach that Gentiles shared in God’s election without excluding Jews?

Isaiah 2 : Prophet Of Deliverance And Messianic Hope (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Lessons 11-21
Additional Info
Many of Isaiah’s writings have been called “the fifth Gospel.” The New Testament contains no fewer than 66 direct quotes from Isaiah, and 20 of the New Testament books include his timeless words. In Jesus’ first formal appearance in His hometown synagogue at Nazareth, He captivated the speechless congregation by reading from Isaiah.But it was more than the mere reading, of course. Jesus claimed that the words He read from Isaiah were literally being fulfilled in Him, the Messiah. Indeed, the Book of Isaiah is replete with predictions of both the first and second comings of Christ. And it was Isaiah who made clear (in chapter 53) that the Messiah would be a largely rejected suffering Servant, shattering the time-honored hopes of Israel that His primary function would be to rescue His people from their political oppressors. But the glorious news the prophet proclaimed was that this Servant’s stripes and shed blood would provide healing and atonement for our sin.
Through his proclamations of the gravity of sin, the righteous requirements of a holy God, and the sure hope of the coming Messiah, Isaiah provides a message of incredible hope for people of all ages.
This second part of Wisdom of the Word’s study on Isaiah examines chapters 40 through 66 of this inimitable book.

Isaiah 1 : Prophet Of Deliverance And Messianic Hope (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Lessons 1-10
Additional Info
Isaiah’s vision of God has given hope to countless generations. His proclamations of God’s impending judgment have given the world the proper balance between God’s expansive love and His absolute holiness.Isaiah is easily among the Bible’s most well known prophets. It was he who uttered those timeless five words that have challenged Christians throughout the centuries to yield themselves to God unreservedly: “Here am I. Send Me!” (6:8). It was he who shared God’s incredible invitation that has rung through the ages: “Come now, let us reason together…Through your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool” (1:18).
Though obviously grieved by his countrymen’s departure from the God who loved them so much, Isaiah never gave up expressing the ache of the Creator’s heart for His people to return to them, to allow them to experience His love in all its fullness.
This intriguing 10-week study explores fascinating insights into the first 39 chapters of this landmark Old Testament book and challenged all believers top take a closer look at the Heavenly Father who pursues them with a relentless love that won’t satisfied until they come home.

Mary Called Magdalene
$30.00Was Mary Magdalene a prostitute, a female divinity figure, a church leader, or all of those? Biblical references to her are tantalizingly brief, but we do know that she was the first person to whom the risen Christ appeared-and the one commissioned to tell others the good news, earning her the ancient honorific, “Apostle to the Apostles.” Today, Mary continues to spark controversy, curiosity, and veneration. In a vivid re-creation of Mary Magdalene’s life story, Margaret George convincingly captures this renowned woman’s voice as she moves from girlhood to womanhood, becomes part of the circle of disciples, and comes to grips with the divine. Grounded in biblical scholarship and secular research, this fascinating historical novel is also, ultimately, “the diary of a soul.”

Blessed One : Protestant Perspectives On Mary

This thoughtful and highly accessible book will be of great interest to all engaged in the debates of the contemporary church, Protestant and Roman Catholics alike.

Jael : Blessed Above Women
$18.73Very similar to the prayer of Jabez, both “Jael” and “God’s Blessing System” have been hidden in scripture from the body of Christ until now. Jael, a powerful, virtuous, Gentile woman, was used by God to deliver His people from the evil Sisera and Jabin, the wicked king, by using a hammer and nail. Just as God used Moses to deliver Israel, David to kill Goliath, Mary to birth the Savior, even Esther and Ruth, so God used Jael the Kenite maiden, “blessed above women.” Yet many teach in error that God doesn’t use women.That which was once hidden must now come to light (I Corinthians 4:5). In this book, “God’s blessing system” is revealed so that all who seek to be blessed may know the three levels that are available and what levels they are now on. Available are the just “blessed,” the “blessed above,” and the elite “most blessed.” Which one are you?

Nehemiah : Man Of Radical Obedience (Student/Study Guide)
$14.9910 Lesson Bible Study
Additional Info
A great job, wonderful friends, financial security. What if God asked you to leave it all behind today – to forsake everything familiar and comfortable? To give it all up to go to a neglected, third-rate portion of the world and to rebuild a city you’ve never seen?Sound unlikely? This is precisely a portrait of Nehemiah, cupbearer to the king of Persia. After hearing that a plan to rebuild Jerusalem’s ruined city wall had tragically failed, Nehemiah’s heart was broken. Yet, he wasn’t satisfied simply to lament the incident from his sheltered life in Persia. Hearing God’s call for him to go back to his homeland and see the wall restored completely, he responded in radical obedience, forsaking everything to follow God’s instructions.
In this captivating 10-week study of an often-overlooked Old Testament book, the authors link Nehemiah’s obedience with its practical implications for believers today. As Nehemiah faced great opposition and numerous setbacks, he and the Israelites learned how to totally abandon themselves to God’s will and way for their lives. Each lesson offers valuable observations to help deepen faith, inspire hope, and strengthen the resolve to follow God’s leading at all costs.

$9.93Why did Jesus select the twelve as apostles? What did they accomplish after the resurrection? What happened to them? What can we learn from them?
This resource provides fascinating material for reading and discussion with adult study classes during the Lenten season or as a summer study series. Discussion questions are included with each study of the twelve apostles, as well as Saint Paul.
Click writes in a style that makes us feel we can understand what really motivates each of these apostles. While he allows for imagination and comparison with the present day, he doesn’t stray from the biblical accounts in discovering fascinating insights into the lives of these followers of Jesus.
Labeled the “architect” of the United Lutheran Church in America’s churchwide evangelism mission, E. Dale Click practiced evangelism in his own pastorate in two suburban congregations and three central city churches. He has directed evangelism missions throughout North America, teaching thousands of pastors and lay people the meaning of evangelism. The author of four books, Click continues to serve as a consultant to numerous congregations and universities in evangelism and development as well as lecturing and preaching across the United States. He is a graduate of Wittenberg University and Hamma Divinity School in Springfield, Ohio, and furthered his education with graduate study at Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley, California.

Who They Really Were
$19.93When the problem of what to preach next Sunday raises its frowning head, solve it by calling on one of the hundreds of biblical characters standing in line at your study door, nearly beating it down with their clamorous “Take me! Take me!”.
Preaching on biblical personalities has an irresistible appeal, because audiences are more interested in people than in anything else. Jesus himself preached mainly about people (“a certain man had two sons …”); so there’s no excuse for making the Gospel dull — and with the help of Bodo’s book, preachers can add spice to the pulpit fare they serve up week after strenuous week.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Seeing For Ourselves
$17.95Katerina Whitley’s first book of biblical monologues, Speaking for Ourselves, was received with enthusiastic praise. Now she is back with another provocative collection of stories. In Seeing for Ourselves: Biblical Women Who Met Jesus, Whitley gives powerful voice to the New Testament women who met Jesus both before and after the Resurrection.
The women who speak in this collection include some we meet only in passing in the Bible. Among the women who tell their stories:
The woman at the well; The adulterous woman who was nearly stoned to death; Cleopas’ wife whom Jesus may have met on the road to Emmaus; The woman who touched Jesus’ cloak in order to be healed; Mary and Martha; Phoebe; Prisca; Pilate’s wife; The bride at the wedding of Cana.
As in her first volume, the book includes references to the biblical passages along with study questions, making this an excellent book for group study.
