I Love Growing Older But Ill Never Grow Old
$16.99Growing older is a process. Growing old is a conclusion. If you’re growing older you see some hope because you have perspective and you keep learning. If you’ve grown old, you may cynically think that times have never been as bas as they are now, and that they can only get worse.
This book is about learning how to “make peace with where you are right now.” It’s about learning from the past and then moving past it. It’s about growing – personally, spiritually, and in our relationships with God and with others. If we think properly about growing older we’ll never have to grow old.

Kiss Of Satan

Intentional Parenting : Autopilot Is For Planes
$18.99This is about you, not just your child.
Regardless of age, parenting requires a certain amount of uncertainty. But you can be certain that your children look to you to help them discover who they are. And you can only offer that to the degree that YOU know who you are.
Over the years, Sissy Goff, David Thomas, and Melissa Trevathan have helped countless families through their ministry known as Daystar Counseling in Nashville, TN. Due to the unique setup of Daystar, each is frequently counseling not only the child but the parent as well. Having both perspectives provides an opportunity to speak into some of the most common struggles that parents face in today’s fast-paced society.
Intentional Parenting is built around 12 chapters that each dispel some of the most common parenting myths and reminds all parents of truths that can empower them to be not only the parents that their children need but that God has called them to be.
The book helps you discover first who you are and then takes that healthy person into a discovery of being more intentional, playful, consistent, merciful, and connected to your children.
Understanding your child. Understanding you.

Am I Missing Something
$24.99One time News of the World journalist tries to explain her new belief in Christianity to her friends at the same time as working out those beliefs for herself. It’s a weird and puzzling world we enter when we become Christians. Ruth Roberts, a journalist and media worker who at one time was on the staff of The News of the World, found church completely alien. She shares with us her own experiences in the form of ‘diary excerpts’ and letters to her father. Entertaining, insightful and poignant, Am I Missing Something? is very honest in revealing the culture clash between Christianity and the secular life. Ruth explores the nature of her new-found belief, and her struggles to reconcile many of her own ideas with that of the church, including the issue of homosexuality. Am I Missing Something? is based on a column which appeared in Christianity magazine, with additional material.

Gust Of Wind
$13.73Many years ago, a young girl visited a convent with a friend. From that moment on, throughout her life, she never forgot how she felt. A holy moment was hers, as she and her friend approached a small chapel. She heard the nuns singing like angels. She knew she was in the presence of God. Patsy Frost Rankin has traveled many roads in her life. Twists and turns shaped her character as she learned from each one. Perhaps all of her experiences gave her strength beyond the norm. She was born during the Depression, and she experienced situations of a humbling nature. She has persevered and tread on in hardships. Teaching was Patsy’s career. She enjoyed motivating children in elementary school, and her goal was to spread positive thinking to all she came to know.

Is The Bride Ready
$21.86Roy Wallace is the founding President of Gospel Outreach International in Namibia, Africa. This is a strong mission movement with the aim of “Reaching the Unreached” and has the glossary of “Train, Equip and Send”. This is being done on an International basis by training leaders through seminars in different countries and bringing leaders to the Christian Leadership School in Namibia for an 18 month intense course on leadership and other related Biblical subjects. He has 45 years of full time experience in the vineyards of our Lord, especially in the areas of Tent Evangelism, Pastor, Counselor, and Trainer of Leaders and as an International itinerate Preacher. The broad and rich experience has made him become a Father Figure to many young and up coming leaders. This book is a must for the Christians: “Is The Bride Ready” brings out the love affair between Christian Believers and Jesus Christ. The content of this book will surely enrich and enlighten the Child of God and inspire each one to a deeper relation ship with Jesus. I have known Dr. Bishop Roy Wallace for over 20 years and from my interactions and mentoring process with him, I know him to be bold, straight forward and not afraid to speak out what is right. Many a times his straight forwardness got him into trouble but he remains steadfast in what he believes and firmly stand for what is right. This is a man of God that is called and anointed by God to raise powerful sons and daughters in the kingdom of God that was able through the grace of God to move and operate in the assignment God has put upon their lives. I am fortunate to be one of his daughters that he mentored over the years and is extremely proud to say that I have adopted his boldness behind the pulpit. Dr. Wallace is well respected and appreciated by many in government, politics and the educational sector of Namibia for his leadership style and insight of the word of God. Jennifer Moeti

Joy Of Fellowship
$28.95Unfortunately, man’s nature complicates things, and we often cheat ourselves out of great joy by doing “our own thing.” How sad. There is no doubt God’s plan for man includes man’s happiness.
God teaches us joyful living in at least two places. Biblically it is called “walking in fellowship.” This First Epistle of John focuses on “fellowship.” A verse-by-verse expository of that valuable material is extremely helpful.
Also, the Old Testament prophet Enoch was given to us as a role model. God reduced his life of several years into three short phrases: “He walked with God. He pleased God. He was translated to heaven.” God showed his pleasure with his “walk” by taking him up to heaven without his seeing death.
Skimming along the surface, modern man has developed a superficial lifestyle. You will see the joy of living a life of “fellowship with God” on God’s terms.

Bound Together : How We Are Tied To Others In Good And Bad Choices
$16.99We are not just isolated individuals. Instead, our lives are woven together with others. We have solidarity with other people—the choices one person makes affects the lives of others, for good and for bad.
Because much of the pain we endure in life is in the context of relationships, this truth often strikes us as unfair. Why should a child suffer because of the choices of his parents? And on a grander scale, why do we all suffer the curse of Adam’s sin? Why should anyone be judged for someone else’s sin? In Bound Together, Chris Brauns unpacks the truth that we are bound to one another and to the whole of creation. He calls this, ‘the principle of the rope.’ Grasping this foundational principle sheds new light on marriage, the dynamics of family relationships, and the reason why everyone lives with the consequences of the sins that others commit. Brauns shows how the principle of the rope is both bad news and good news, revealing a depth to the message of the gospel that many of us have never seen before.

Journey : Living Life As God Intended
$19.36It’s a forged pathway, decided in eternity to be lived out in time. It is a marked path, one that has been trod upon by centuries of believers just like you and I. There are several types of terrain ahead; some are time worn stony steps; others life challenging climbs. Hostile forces beckon us to detour from this arduous course, offering short cuts and more pleasing trails, but instead we focus not on the labor but on the rest. Oft times the narrow way up ahead seems to become obscure with just enough light to show the next few steps. Yet we weary on, kept on the road by the power of His divine plan for us and pleasure of His presence. The world does not understand; it’s not supposed to. This is a determined sojourn for the desperate heart that desires to know Him, despite the cost. What others see as dangerous, we see as sheer delight. Life as God intended cannot be obtained by a prayer; it cannot be accomplished overnight. No, It’s not for a season; it is the life God ordain for everyone who has come to know Him by faith in His Son; it is our destiny. The Journey looks into what the abundant life is all about, and what is required to live it. Come, let’s take a walk.

NotesAdditional Info
Recent years have seen a remarkable awakening of awareness of global issues. Rising generations are passionately committed to making a difference. Today’s young adults want to save the world. But it’s not quite that simple. Liking Facebook pages only goes so far. As today’s faith-based activists move from awareness to mobilization, we bump up against the complexities of intractable global problems. Despite our good intentions, there are limits to what any of us can accomplish. So disillusionment and compassion fatigue threaten us on one hand, while empty slacktivism derails us on the other. Tyler Wigg-Stevenson gives a perceptive analysis and critique of what we can and cannot do to change the world. As activist movements mature, we need a fundamental reorientation to the fact that we are not the center of the story. Only God can save the world, and yet we can still seek to be faithful in our pursuit of justice and peace. Wigg-Stevenson’s own pilgrimage shows what a more sustainable kingdom-oriented activism might look like as we move from causes to calling, deepening our vocation as disciples and ministers of Christ. The world is not ours to save. And that’s okay. Discover why.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Wounded Warrior Wounded Home (Reprinted)
$21.17For every wounded warrior, there is a wounded home–an immediate and extended family and community impacted by their loved one’s war experiences. Every day service members are returning from combat deployments to their families. And every day war comes home with them.
When a combat veteran struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or traumatic brain injury (TBI), every member of the family experiences the effects. Spouses, parents, and children must undergo changes on the home front, a process that resembles the phases of grief. Confusion, hurt, anger, guilt, fatigue, and fear lie behind their brave smiles and squared shoulders.
Wounded Warrior, Wounded Home gives hurting families a look inside the minds and hearts of wounded warriors and guides them in developing their own personal plan for physical, emotional, and spiritual wholeness in the wake of war. The authors, one the wife of a career US Navy SEAL and the other a clinical psychologist and Vietnam veteran, speak from their own experiences of living with PTSD and TBI. They also share insights from dozens of families and careful research, offering readers a hope-filled way forward

Clean And Unclean
$16.86Eating is a common part of our lives. Many of us do not realize that we can glorify God’s name every time we eat.

This book will help you understand how Jesus, Peter, and even Paul upheld this vital teaching from God’s word. Paul instructs us in II Corinthians 6:17 to touch no unclean thing. Peter also directs us to the dietary laws in his first letter. You will discover the spiritual significance of the dietary laws. You will learn how obedience to them will draw you closer to your Savior and increase the fire of the Holy Spirit in your life!

What happens when snow keeps falling, creating the dangerous threat of an avalanche? Those who heed the warnings are saved, but those who fail to listen are caught in a deadly trap.

IndexesAdditional Info
Does Gods all-encompassing will restrict our freedom? Does Gods ownership and mastery over us diminish our dignity? The fear that God is a threat to our freedom and dignity goes far back in Western thought. Such suspicion remains with us today in our so-called secular society. In such a context any talk of God tends to provoke responses that range from defiance to subservience to indifference. How did Western culture come to this place? What impact does this social and intellectual environment have on those who claim to believe in God or more specifically in the Christian God of the Bible? Professor of religion Ron Highfield traces out the development of Western thought that has led us our current frame of mind from Plato, Augustine and Descartes through Locke, Kant, Blake Bentham, Hegel, Nietzsche–all the way down to Charles Taylor’s landmark work Sources of the Self. At the heart of the issue is the modern notion of the autonomous self and the inevitable crisis it provokes for a view of human identity, freedom and dignity found in God. Can the modern self really secure its own freedom, dignity and happiness? What alternative do we have? Highfield makes pertinent use of trinitarian theology to show how genuine Christian faith responds to this challenge by directing us to a God who is not in competition with his human creations, but rather who provides us with what we seek but could never give ourselves. God, Freedom and Human Dignity is essential reading for Christian students who are interested in the debates around secularism, modernity and identity formation.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Christ In The Chaos
$9.99Moms: Stop comparing yourself to others. Stop striving to meet false expectations. Stop thinking your performance dictates your worth.
For far too long mothers have been beaten down by the law of “do better” and “try harder.” The burden of “getting it right” threatens to crush weary souls who desire to serve their families faithfully. Christ in the Chaos brings comfort to conflicted hearts that are starved of grace and longing for the freedom in Christ the Bible promises.
In this book, Kimm Crandall emphasizes the importance of the gospel and how Christ’s life, death, and resurrection change every aspect of motherhood. From finding our identity in Christ and understanding God’s grace to taking off the mask of acceptability and dealing with the comparison crud, this book will free you to serve your family knowing that his love for you does not change based on your performance.
Christ in the Chaos is a “must read” for every mother who longs for what is seemingly impossible: peace and freedom in the midst of her chaos.

Love No Matter What
$18.99How will you respond when your child makes a decision you don’t agree with?
Parents and kids will never agree on everything but what can mom and dad do when that decision – whether a matter of preference, spirituality, or morality – is something they think is totally wrong? Author and speaker Brenda Garrison knows all too well that how parents respond will either build a wall or a bridge between them and their child.
Brenda and her husband were forced to answer this question when their oldest daughter Katie abruptly moved out of the house with no means of support. It was not an illegal or immoral decision, but it was one that wasn’t good for her. Their determination to keep an open door of communication is documented not only by their story, but by comments from Katie in each chapter as she offers insights from her own perspective.
Also included are other family scenarios – everything from matters of preference to foolish, immoral, and even illegal decisions – as well as insights into different styles of parenting such as servant, checked-out, gotcha, scared, and controlling parents.
With practical tips and relatable stories, Brenda shares how to model God’s parenting style and explains the difference between the parent’s responsibilities and the child’s, then helps mom and dad discover ways to develop and nurture a relationship with their child that will last a lifetime.

Serving God Saving The Planet
$18.99Not long ago, J. Matthew Sleeth had a fantastic life and a great job as chief of the medical staff at a large hospital. He was living the American dream—until he saw an increasing number of his patients suffering from cancer, asthma, and other chronic diseases. He began to suspect that the Earth and its inhabitants were in deep trouble. Turning to Jesus for guidance, Sleeth discovered how the scriptural lessons of personal responsibility, simplicity, and stewardship could be applied to modern life. The Sleeths have since sold their big home and given away more than half of what they once owned. In Serving God, Saving the Planet, Sleeth shares the joy of adopting a less materialistic, healthier lifestyle, stronger relationships, and richer spiritual lives. With the storytelling ease of James Herriot and the logical clarity of C. S. Lewis, Sleeth lays out the rationale for environmentally responsible life changes and a how-to guide for making those changes.

Walking In The Dust Of Rabbi Jesus
$15.99In Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus, Lois Tverberg challenges readers to follow their Rabbi more closely by re-examining his words in the light of their Jewish context. Doing so will provide a richer, deeper understanding of his ministry, compelling us to live differently, to become more Christ-like. We’ll begin to understand why his first Jewish disciples abandoned everything to follow him, to live out his commands. Our modern society, with its individualism and materialism, is very different than the tight-knit, family-oriented setting Jesus lived and taught in. What wisdom can we glean from his Eastern, biblical attitude toward life? How can knowing Jesus within this context shed light on his teachings for us today? In Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus we’ll journey back in time to eavesdrop on the conversations that arose among the rabbis of Jesus’ day, and consider how hearing Rabbi Jesus with the ears of a first-century disciple can bring new meaning to our faith. And we’ll listen to Jewish thinkers through the ages, discovering how ideas that germinated in Jesus’ time have borne fruit. Doing so will yield fresh, practical insights for following our Rabbi’s teachings from a Jewish point of view.

Faith Doubt And Other Lines Ive Crossed

Sinning Like A Christian
$16.99The seven deadly sins are a well-known topic, but, surprisingly, not much has been written about them in recent years from a serious theological viewpoint. Will Willimon’s engaging book, which takes an unflinching look at the meaning and substance of sin, will be of great interest to Christians. Study questions by the author are included. The “felt need” is an increasing dissatisfaction with shallow, feel-good Christianity-which does not attempt to grapple with our propensity, visible around us and in our own lives, to do evil. This edition includes a new introduction by the author.

Standing On My Knees
$12.99Jeff Lucas turns his hallmark wit and candour to expose some of the myths that hinder our prayer life. Describing his book as an ‘alternative prayer manual’, Jeff offers a wealth of practical suggestions to help Christians of all ages and stages to develop a stronger one-on-one relationship with the Almighty. He is open about his own struggles in this area, and writes with clarity and compassion about an aspect of the life of faith that many of us find difficult. First published as How Not to Pray, this book is now revised and updated. Jeff says: ‘The core message is the same, but ten years on I am writing from a different part of the wood. I am not sure I am wiser, but I am certainly more experienced – and continue to believe that if we get our prayer habits right, the rest of life is more likely to fall into place.’

Sin Of Forgiveness
$14.95Today’s “forgiveness” does just the opposite of what forgiveness is meant to accomplish – put another way, secular forgiveness causes more harm than good. The one forgiving is never made whole again, while the sinner is left in the same wretched condition. But true Christian forgiveness brings a blessing to all. We are to forgive, but it must be according to the example and teachings of Christ. Anything less is a sin.

Throughout history, Christians have been called by God to active engagement in society on behalf of the poor and oppressed. Christian leaders have been instrumental in caring for people who are poor, fighting injustice and advocating for social change. But they have never done so on their own power. Their energy and zeal were fueled by inner spiritual practices that propelled them forward into the world. Activist and historian Mae Elise Cannon explores the direct connection between Christians’ personal relationship with God and outward actions of kindness, mercy, compassion and advocacy. She looks at how notable Christian leaders were able to face societal challenges because of the rich depths of their spiritual practices. For example: Mother Teresa’s practice of silence compelled her to service.Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s prayer life equipped his discipleship.Martin Luther King Jr.’s beloved community empowered his proclamation.Oscar Romero’s discipline of submission prepared him to face martyrdom. Biographical profiles of these and other key figures from around the world give us concrete examples of how activism and advocacy can be sustained over the long haul.Cannon also describes modern-day activists who embody the synergy of faith and action, with practical lessons for our own lives. Find yourself spiritually transformed by these examples, and follow in their footsteps in just service to the world.
