Stepping Through Troubled Times
$41.26Stepping through Troubled Times is a cry in the wilderness. It cuts through the media hype and fear mongering to show why Americans must stand strong. Biblical truth reveals a clear parallel between political liberalism and the lost nature of man as evidenced by fear of global catastrophe and widespread religious hypocrisy. A subtle tyranny has grown out of failure to accept responsibility for our own actions and developed into a cry for government to provide all our needs. Dr. Nelsen focuses the Word of God upon both the political unrest and our personal failure of faith which has led America down the destructive path towards socialism.
The reason for the Stepping through Troubled Times is two-fold:
(1) Confusion of Americans: Patriotic Americans and Christians in general are confused by the media hype and fear-filled news reports that inundate our daily lives. Political correctness and hypocrisy is pervasive in our culture. Discerning truth has become much more difficult in recent years. Moral relativism has replaced the awareness of right and wrong. Immoral behavior is more acceptable in this generation than ever before. Tolerance of evil has become a requirement, and Christian values are seen as bigotry.
(2) The depth of our trouble: Most Americans are unaware of the extent of socialist ideology in our government and society. Soft tyranny has invaded our thinking and legislative action has restricted the fundamental freedoms envisioned by the Founding Fathers. Our God-given liberties have been codified into law for government to provide. God has been taken out of the picture, and America as a nation is drifting rapidly into a Marxist ideology.

Love Sex And Happily Ever After
$17.00What do you do if you want a marriage that doesn’t just survive, but thrives? That doesn’t just begin romantically but ends magnificently?
Answer: You do something different.
You’ve seen marriages fail time and again. Even relationships you thought were bullet proof don’t last-or maybe worse-fade away to a cold, gray lovelessness. It’s no wonder that for today’s generation, “getting what you want” is often a substitute for love, and disillusionment about marriage is the new normal.
But you can have a long-term, love-blessed marriage. Whether you’re still considering it, are about to be wed, or have been married for a while and want to make changes, Love, Sex & Happily Ever After delivers an infusion of hope. Author Craig Groeschel clearly and honestly lays out the choices and commitments you can make now to change the way you think and act-to build the relationship you want for the rest of your life.
With an invigorating mix of personal story, practical guidance and biblical truth, Craig invites you into a candid conversation about first dates, sex, communication, integrity, forgiveness, and commitment. Along the way, he shows how you can build a soul-enriching, God-honoring relationship with the one you love…and believe together again in your very own “happily ever after.”

Torn : Trusting God When Life Leaves You In Pieces

Saving Desire : The Seduction Of Christian Theology
$22.99Traditional Christian theology has generally treated desire as a dark and negative force intimately related to sin – something to be restricted and repressed, closeted and controlled. But, according to LeRon Shults and Jan-Olav Henriksen’s Saving Desire, we see only part of the picture if we do not also perceive that desire can be a powerful force for great good. Grounding their work firmly in the experiential realm of human life, the eight eminent theologians contributing to this volume celebrate together the positivity, the sociality, and the physicality of saving desire – that is, humankind’s innate desire not only for the “good life” but also, more vitally, for the life-transforming goodness of God.

With : Reimagining The Way You Relate To God
$19.99Instead of life over, under, from, or even for God, what leads us into freedom and restoration is life with God. Why are American Christians, who have more access to biblical teaching than any other people in history, failing to experience the freedom of the Christian life? Why are pastors, those closest to the work and ministry, burning out at an alarming rate? Why do many church members, who give large amounts of their time and wealth to Christ and his kingdom, secretly question the legitimacy of their efforts? And why are spiritual seekers dismissing the validity of the Christian message? Is it possible we’ve misunderstood the call of the Christian life?
With explores the narrative of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and the stories of faithful women and men throughout history, to show that we were created to be with God, and that restoring this connection is his mission. When we neglect this calling in favor of a life over, under, or even for God, we will not know the freedom Christ intended. But a life lived in rich communion with God cultivates faith, hope, and love in a way that transforms both us and the broken world we inhabit.

Mirror Ball : Living Boldly And Shining Brightly For The Glory Of God
$16.99When it comes to a life of mission and worship, it’s not about our own light and brilliance-we have none. But when we allow God to shine through us, we become a dazzling testimony to His radiance.
–Matt Redman, Mirror BallPassion is more than a song or a feeling. It’s a story of guts and glory, pain, and purpose. For anyone who follows Jesus, passion is a way of life. But how do we live out this grand calling?
In Mirror Ball, worship leader and songwriter Matt Redman reminds us that even when we feel insufficient to reflect God’s glory, God can show through us as light radiates through a prism. Living in this truth will transform how we view our words, our relationships, our daily lives.
You–and your world–will never be the same.

Uneclipsing The Son
$17.63Christ, the Son of God, has been eclipsed, and we’ve made ourselves at home in this new normal. Escape the twilight of tepid religiosity to step into the broad daylight of the living Christ!
Christianity is the worship of Jesus Christ. If He is who the Bible says He is, and if He did what the Bible says He did, He is worthy of the exclusive, attention and focus of our lives. Sadly, though, the Son gets crowded out by earthly things. Our hearts grow slack, our love runs cool, our worship is distracted. Even the treadmill of Christian activity can keep us ever unable to focus on the Author and Finisher of the race. We sip at puddles of sin a stone’s throw from the Well of the water of life. Uneclipsing the Son aims at ending all this, bringing you face to face with the Christ of Scripture, the only one who can transform you just by knowing Him. Clear, biblical, and compelling, Holland will drive you relentlessly to the conclusion that you must give yourself to the worship of this Jesus or forever stumble in the half-light of spiritual uncertainty and disaffection.

Pandemoniums Engine : Satans Imminent And Final Assault On The Creation Of
$16.95Defender Publishing
In every generation, when dangers gather, there is a group of men and women courageous enough to confront evil and inform the populace.
Sometimes unpleasant truths need to be presented; most of us would rather stand back and kick a toe in the dirt. You know, let someone else do it.
Someone else is courageous enough to tell us the truth. Tom Horn & Friends research, publish, and speak about some of the most important topics of our time. Pandemonium’s Engine is the vehicle through which Tom and an elite team of commentators are informing a still-sleeping public about radical changes coming to our culture…very soon.
In particular, the technological advances that have brought us to the doorstep of life-altering realities are such that the man-on-the-street is struggling to make sense of our world.
The book you are about to read is a landmark offering, making such issues as “transhumanism” compelling reading. A shadowy world of intrigue, power-grabs, and seismic changes in daily life is the stuff of sci-fi movies. Yet the authors contributing to Pandemonium’s Engine show us in disturbing detail that these mind-blowing technologies are quite real.
For example, Cris D. Putnam writes in “Christian Transhumanism: Pandemonium’s Latest Ploy”:
“Transhumanism is a transnational technocratic trend that promises to break through human biological limitations by radically redesigning humanity.”
Sound like a campy Star Trek episode, or a movie plot from Stanley Kubrick?
As a matter of fact, they are, but rooted in present reality. Change agents in our world are working feverishly to harness the powers of human ingenuity, to wreak havoc on our way of life.
Chuck Missler writes in “Pandora’s Box for the 21st Century? The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” that the seductiveness of medical advances mask a diabolical agenda. For example, he mentions that the drive to, among other things, develop receptors that could impinge the constriction of blood vessels and thus the scourge of hypertension is a source of optimism. As are drugs that inhibit damage from brain trauma, or genetic research that could cure diabetes.
But Chuck knows that some researchers would trample over ethical boundaries and move past such positive research into frontiers humans were not meant to go.
Frederick Meekins’ chapter, “Examples of Transhumanism in Popular Culture” identifies how we have been brought along to accept technologies. We’ve been conditioned

Is Hell For Real Or Does Everyone Go To Heaven
$16.99The traditional, biblically based view of Hell is again being questioned by people both in and outside the walls of the church. How could Jesus, the one who died for the sins of the world, condemn millions of people to eternal torment because they didn’t believe the right things about him? Doesn’t God’s goodness make it impossible for him to commit such an act of seemingly vengeful judgment? Isn’t eternal punishment disproportionate, and therefore unjust, in light of the temporal nature of all human failings? Can’t Jesus’ love overcome all who resist him, even the most unrepentant of sinners? In light of difficult questions like these—and in part as a response to the controversy stirred up by Rob Bell’s Love Wins—this book affirms with clarity and even-handedness the historic Christian doctrine regarding the final destiny of the unsaved. Together, the contributors explore the biblical and theological reasons for continuing to believe in hell, revealing along the way some of the consequences for the church when it loses sight of this doctrine. Is Hell for Real or Does Everyone Go to Heaven? answers some of today’s toughest questions with deep biblical insights and an irenic tone. This book is ideal for group studies on the topic or for individuals looking for a quick way to better understand the discussion.

10 Things Jesus Never Said (Reprinted)
$17.00Too often Christians carry a lot of guilt and baggage when it comes to their relationship with God. The problem is that so many of us believe unbiblical, damaging things about how critical God is and how fed up he must be with us. But many of the things we think Jesus would say to us–things like “I can’t believe you call yourself a Christian,” “If you really loved me, you’d try harder,” and “I’m so disappointed in you”–are things he never said. The solution, says Will Davis Jr., is to stop believing the lies and start believing the things Jesus did say.
In 10 Things Jesus Never Said, Davis unmasks commonly believed myths about our relationship with God and shows readers how to replace this pervasive theology of failure with the truth of how Jesus really feels about them. Discussion questions at the end of each chapter help small groups or individuals apply these truths to their current situations. Anyone who has ever felt that they didn’t measure up to God’s standards will love this freeing exploration of grace and forgiveness.

Licensed To Kill
$9.99The Christian life is not a playground, but a battleground. One of the fiercest foes in this battle dwells within our own hearts: the enemy of indwelling sin. The Scriptures command us to “put sin to death.” This is what pastors and theologians of another generation called the “mortification” of sin. But how do we mortify sin? And what role does the gospel play in this effort to apply lethal force against sin? How can we avoid falling into legalism while still maintaining a passion for holiness? And what kinds of strategies actually work in the daily battle? These are questions I have personally wrestled with as both a Christian and a pastor. This book is my attempt to answer those questions and provide a biblical and practical guide for the war against sin.

WikiChurch : Making Discipleship Engaging Empowering And Viral
$14.99Most Christians agree that discipleship is important, even essential for Christian maturity; few understand biblical principles and even fewer apply a biblical process when it comes to discipleship. Discipleship isn’t complicated, but it can at times be difficult. The difficulty lies in applying the following four principles to your specific context. Simply put, here’s how anyone-young or old, male or female, pastor or entrepreneur-can make disciples.
1. Engage culture and community-When Jesus told His original twelve to go and make disciples, they did not interpret His command to mean, “Find people who are already following Me and help them become better followers.” They interpreted His “great commission” to mean that they should go and find people who were not yet followers and help them know and follow Jesus. The starting line of the disciple-making process must be evangelism that engages both our community and culture.
2. Establish spiritual foundations-If we want our disciples to survive the storms of life, we must help them establish strong biblical foundations.
3. Equip believers to minister-The biblical job description for professional ministers is to equip the “non-pros” for ministry, then get out of their way.
4. Empower disciples to make disciples-Jesus expected all of His original disciples to make disciples. He empowered them, knowing they would make mistakes. Because Jesus expects all His disciples to make disciples, we must not only equip them, but we must also empower them.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Invisible King And His Kingdom
$15.99Too many Christians have a pessimistic and doom and gloom view of the future because of a lack of understanding concerning what Jesus came to establish-the kingdom of God. If believers cannot see the kingdom, they will focus on the negative things the news has to offer. Discerning the kingdom in a world seemingly devoid of righteousness is the only hope and encouragement for believers today. In this book, readers will be challenged on the predominant, negative worldview that permeates much of the church and some of the “Christian thinking” that goes with it. Readers will learn about the kingdom in order to be kingdom ambassadors to their generation. There is a wealth of information on the kingdom that this book will examine. It will also challenge many misconceptions of the kingdom that are held today among Christians.
Jesus’s announcement that the kingdom was at hand was the turning point in human history. It was the announcement that salvation, redemption, and everlasting righteousness was at hand. It is important for believers to understand the kingdom as the plan of God for the ages. The advancement of the kingdom is the will of God for every generation.

Preparation For Eternity With God
$18.60Our time is short on this earth. Jesus will soon be returning to take His children home … but are we ready? There are preparations we can make. The book you are holding is a story about fighting the good fight of faith and conquering it with Christ’s help. God’s Word says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” (Hosea 4:6) The Bible also says, “The truth shall make you free … ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:32,36)
Author Rick Streight speaks heart-to-heart with the reader about the realities of the Christian journey and the reward that is waiting for us. He also speaks about the dangers that surround us, the temptations we often struggle with, and how to overcome sin through Christ.
He asks a major question: “Why hasn’t Jesus come yet ?” This book answers that important question.
Are you spiritually homesick? God has made a plan that we may have “… boldness in the day of Judgment.” (1 John 4:17) Jesus depended totally on His Father for wisdom and power. If we depend on Jesus, we can receive that same power to live the Christian life maturely, with no short cuts-that’s God’s way! This book also provides answers as to how we can hasten Jesus’s second coming.
May we all prepare ourselves for “the day of the Lord” through in-depth study of His Word with much prayer. Ask God, “How do I apply these things I am learning to my life?”

Radical Hospitality : Benedict’s Way Of Love (Expanded)
$19.99For readers of “The Benedict Option”, here is another invaluable collection of Benedictine wisdom to live by. Today’s culture is increasingly hostile and suspicious toward anyone who appears to be different–especially when tragedy strikes. Our instinct is to bolt our doors and protect the ones we love. But deep within the heart of Benedictine spirituality lies a remedy to hatred, fear, and suspicion: hospitality. At once deeply comforting and sharply challenging, true Benedictine hospitality requires that we welcome the stranger, not only into our homes, but into our hearts. With warmth and humor, drawing from the monastic tradition and sharing personal anecdotes from their own lives, Pratt and Homan encourage us to embrace not only the literal stranger, but the stranger within and the stranger in those we love.

Let God Change Your Life
$14.99Evangelist Greg Laurie calls all Christians back to radical New Testament living in his latest offering, Let God Change Your Life.
Imagine what it would have been like to be a follower of Jesus; first-century Christians walked away from their old lives just to be where He was. What they learned, sitting at His feet, was discipleship. And when His work on earth was done, first-century Christians took His words and example and spread out, teaching the gospel to everyone.
The good news is that we, too, can participate in this lifestyle. Laurie drills it down in three simple ideas: get to know Jesus, follow His plan for discipleship, and use it to tell others what we know. Laurie’s tone is clear, direct, and biblical.

Suffering : Christian Reflections On The Buddhist Dukkha
$21.16What is dukkha? In Buddhism this word encompasses the concepts of dis-ease, unsteadiness, sorrow, and lack of inner calm. In English it is usually translated simply as “suffering”. However it is defined, dukkha is central to understanding Buddhism. The Buddha described not only what it was, but taught that there is a way out of it.
Suffering is an undeniable theme in both Christianity and Buddhism. Both treat the topic with great intensity. Buddha taught that suffering was inherent to the mortal condition. Christ was born into a life of suffering and called disciples to follow him in this path. Through enlightenment Buddha pointed to a way out of suffering. Through his death Christ suffered once for all. Both groups experience suffering but often talk about it from completely different starting points. Are there insights from each perspective that can inform the other? We believe so.

Colors Of Hope (Reprinted)
$25.00The Christian life, says Richard Dahlstrom, should be guided by the intentional goal of blessing the lives of the friends, loved ones, and strangers in our midst. We are called to impact a culture that, for all the rhetoric about hope, is overwhelmingly preoccupied with personal peace, prosperity, protection, and survival. Christians should be artists who paint with the colors of hope in a broken world, embodying Christ’s redemptive presence in our personal lives, our work, and our relationships.
This inspiring and practical book offers tools for living out this vision in daily life, with special attention given to the challenges we face in staying focused on the mission of imparting hope to others even while dealing with our own personal issues. Anyone who wishes they could have an impact on the world will cherish this unique book.
