Only Jesus Of Nazareth Can Be Isreals King Messiah
$15.99Add to cartOnly Jesus of Nazareth Can Be Israel’s King Messiah, the third in the King Messiah Series, proves beyond doubt according to biblical prophecy that only Jesus of Nazareth can be Israel’s King Messiah. Using his skills as a retired federal investigator, plus spending thousands of hours studying the Bible and debating, John McTernan uses Daniel 9, the Davidic covenant, and the genealogy of the kings of Judah to form an airtight case proving only the Lord Jesus is Israel’s King Messiah. The author provides a unique way to look at Daniel 9 to pinpoint the exact time of King Messiah’s first coming. He shows that the Davidic covenant reveals that King Messiah has to be the Son of God. And finally, he shows that the genealogy of the kings of Judah possesses overwhelming evidence that only Jesus of Nazareth by His virgin birth can be the Messiah. This book is a great witnessing tool.

Yes Lord : How When Where
$12.49Add to cartEvery person has a purpose for being here. Sometimes our purpose seems to be hidden from us as well as others. Many times it is revealed just one step at a time. Our revelation of a situation can depend on revealing circumstances, prayer, friends, or Scripture. Just stay in contact with God. He knows exactly where you are and the dilemmas you’re having. When your answer comes, be ready to thank Him and to tell others about it. He deserves your praise. When you have problems, try putting God in the equation. He can make all the difference in the world. Try doing your math. Had I been offered a choice of an era to be born in, I would have chosen the one I had gotten by chance. I have seen the horse and buggy and also a man on the moon, and I have enjoyed the Industrial Revolution and a great Spiritual Awakening. What a spectrum for one life span!

Scandalous Freedom : The Radical Nature Of The Gospel
$17.99Add to cartA RADICAL FREEDOM
God has set us free – and at great cost – but many Christians live in self-imposed bondage. Rather than delighting in God’s lavish grace, they are fearful of igniting his displease.
As author Steve Brown explains in this brave, new book, too many Christians don’t trust freedom – for themselves or others. They prefer the security of manmade regulations to the adventure of freedom. The implications of freedom, Brown asserts, can sometimes be dangerous; but the alternative is deadly: a life without joy and void of celebration of our unique gifts in Christ.
Each riveting chapter explores a common freedom – stifling tendency, then opens the door to the fresh air of remedial liberty. Chapter titles include:
The Perfection We Desire. . .and the Forgiveness That Sets Us Free
The Masks We Wear. . .and the Authenticity That Sets Us Free
The Boldness We Fear. . .and the Courage That Sets Us Free
The Failure We Foster. . .and the Victory That Sets Us FreeDare to explore the joys of biblical freedom. Open the pages of this book and begin a journey that will set you free – really and truly and completely free.

SpiritQuest Our War With Choices
$15.49Add to cart“People are reaching out in all directions in their attempt to escape from the seen world to the unseen world.” -George Gallup, U.S. News and World Report Spiritual influence has many faces. Without some understanding of the dynamics involved, the unsuspecting person may be under spiritual control without any suspicion or awareness of that control. When you know the basic direction of spiritual influence, it becomes easier to understand and avoid that which leads to harmful, hopeless, or destructive choices. Spiritual forces impact all humanity and cannot be controlled by Man. Their impact can and will be positive or negative, and they are helped or hindered by prayer and its intent. Our senses can be programmed by what we consume from different media sources. Our senses move us toward truth or error, and that movement will produce results. Do you know whose spirit is influencing your choices today?

Alcanzando Al Dios Invisible – (Spanish)
$16.99Add to cart“How do I relate to a God who is invisible when I’m never quite sure he’s there?” –Philip Yancey Life with God doesn’t always work like we thought. High expectations slam against the reality of personal weaknesses and unwelcome surprises. And the God whom we’ve been told, longs for our company may seem remote and emotionally unavailable. Is God playing games? What can we count on this God for? This relationship with a God we can’t see, hear, or touch–how does it really work? Reaching for the Invisible God offers deep, satisfying insights that affirm and dignify the questions we’re sometimes afraid to ask. In this Gold Medallion Award-winning book, Philip Yancey explores six foundational areas: our thirst for God, faith during times when God seems unavailable, the nature of God himself, our personal relationship with God, stages along the way, and the end goal of spiritual transformation. Honest and deeply personal, here is straight talk on Christian living for the man or woman who wants more than pat answers to life’s imponderables. Ultimately, Yancey shifts the focus from our questions to the One who offers himself in answer. The God who invites us to reach for him–and find.

Henry Maxwell, speaking slowly and determinedly, yet not fully realizing the implications of what lay ahead of him, repeated his astounding proposition, “I want volunteers from Fist Church who will pledge themselves, earnestly and honestly, for an entire year, not to do anything without first asking the question, “What would Jesus do?” Maxwell never dreamed that among those who responded would be the most influential members of his congregation, the wealthy heiress with her millions at stake, the newspaper editor with his job on the line, the president of the local college, the town beauty.

Perfect Love : Understanding John Wesleys A Plain Account Of Christian Perf (Exp
$14.00Add to cartA Perfect Love is the full text of Wesley’s book. What makes this version unique is that the author has edited Wesley’s text and updated his language for the contemporary reader. Christian perfection is the doctrine that distinguishes Methodism from other Christian denominations. People who read and study this book will come away with a greater appreciation for this important doctrine. It will change their lives. It may even change their church.
A Perfect Love includes in-text definitions and notes that explain names and terms that may be unfamiliar to the reader. It also includes hymns by Charles Wesley that describe the work of grace in human lives that leads to perfection in love. In addition, Dr. Diana Hynson provides a study guide that may be used for individual or small group studies, and Dr. Marjorie Suchocki offers a careful theological and spiritual reflection on Wesley’s work.
Briefly, the term Christian perfection, as Wesley used and understood it, may be translated as “Christian maturity.” It is the process of “growing up” in the love of God and neighbor. It is “holiness of heart and life.” It is “having the same mind in you that was in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 2:5). Christian perfection is the goal of salvation; it is the outcome of a life lived with and for God in Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Fathering The Nations
$15.99Add to cartFathering the Nations reveals the character and integrity of Christ that are needed within the heart of God’s delegated representatives-apostles, prophets, evangelists, preachers, and teachers-so the body of Christ will be effectively trained, equipped, and released by God for works of service through spiritual fathers’ “fatherhood.” This book instills hope in the hearts of all levels of believers by dealing with the frustrations and misconceptions concerning leadership in the church as we’ve known it. Leaders were never given authority over the people of God but were given authority for God’s people. Fathering the Nations deals directly with leadership through biblical foundations, awakening and reestablishing God’s divine order for daily living and godly government for the eternal existence of the true Church of Christ Jesus “on earth as it is in heaven.”This book lays a solid foundation of Christ and His Kingdom “living within the hearts of all believers.”

God Who Speaks Print On Demand Title
$25.99Add to cartA Print on Demand Title
As Christians we believe that God speaks – that God has spoken to people down through the centuries and still speaks to us today. But just how does God speak to us? Has his speech changed over time? And how do we “hear” the voce of God? In this insightful book Ben Campbell Johnson explores the subject of divine speech, highlighting its importance to faith and leading Christian believers into the practice of listening for God’s voice in daily life.
Johnson first explores the biblical foundations of divine communication, tracing the ways that God has spoken to humankind from the calling of Abraham, to the appearance of Jesus, to the continuing work of the Spirit in the early church. He then gleans important lessons about God’s language from a wide range of Christian figures throughout history – Polycarp, Julian of Norwich, Teresa of Avila, Henri Nouwen, and others.
As this historical record shows, God communicates with us in a variety of ways. In exploring these different modes of “GodSpeech,” Johnson deftly guides readers into the practice of “intensive listening,” a way of posing issues to God and discerning his response. Numerous anecdotes illuminate Johnson’s discussion, and each chapter ends with questions for reflection and discussion as well as suggestions for journaling. Johnson concludes the book by recounting a number of personal experiences that vividly illustrate the value of learning to listen to God’s voice.
At a time when many Christians hunger for a more personal, meaningful connection with God, this book shows readers how to discern divine language and forge a closer, richer relationship with “the God who speaks.”

Believer Warrior
$19.99Add to cartWhen a believer does not grow spiritually, he becomes a liability to the body of Christ. Just as a newborn baby starts at the infant stage, but with time grows to be a fully mature adult, a newly born-again believer goes through certain growth phases before he becomes a spiritually mature adult. Spiritual growth phases are clearly evident and unmistakable as seen throughout the New Testament epistles. One of the dominant characteristics of a carnal believer is unbrokenness. God allows the chastening process as if to chip away the outer man by periodic pain and affliction in the believer’s life. As the believer grows, he can no longer feel peace while having inward hatred toward others. Spiritual growth is not human perfection, but it is having a willing and obedient heart and mind to walk in the ways of God in spite of the common struggles of life.

Low Road To New Heights
$15.99Add to cartWellington Boone, author of the popular, well-reviewed Christian marriage manual Your Wife Is Not Your Momma, delivers the unvarnished truth about what it takes for Christian believers to become Christ-like.

Come To Me
$13.49Add to cartWeariness can wear away at our souls, our dreams, our hopes, our determination, and our joy. Weariness is a thief that steals life. It is a descending staircase that leads us into the deep pit of despair and threatens to leave us there with no way out. But the good news is that the way of Christ is ascending. It is the stairway that leads us out of human despair and into the joy of knowing and serving God. Come to Me: An Invitation for the Weary Soul comes to us from the heart of someone who has seen and experienced the dark shadows of true weariness of the soul and mind. In these pages, the author shares with us God.s solution to human weariness and explains why this invitation from Jesus Christ for us to “come” to Him is an invitation worth considering. Reviewed by: Marie DisBrow for Wordsmith Shoppe “Come to Me, written in an easy-to-read, conversational style, is a devotional aimed at those who are overcome by weariness. In this hectic and stressful world, there is surely a large audience for this book. The author uses experiences in his own life, and those of others, to show how weariness can overcome us. A prayer and Scripture reading conclude each of the fourteen chapters.” “The theme of the book is Jesus’ invitation to the weary in Matthew 11:28-30: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” I especially appreciated the author’s explanation of a yoke and how taking Jesus’ yoke upon us is not burdensome because it is “custom made” for each individual.” “Beaird encourages setting priorities: God first, then family and other relationships, and even ourselves. He reminds us that Jesus took time to be alone for prayer and refreshing.” “As a caregiver, I’ve often found myself weary and depressed. Reading Come to Me lifted my spirits and pointed to Jesus as the only true solution to the problem of weariness. This little book was very helpful to me, and I’ll read it again and again.” “Mark Beaird is a pastor, columnist, freelance writer, and the author of Let Me Encourage You Today: Daily Devotions and The Pastor’s Collection Sermon Series. Mark and his wife and two daughters reside in Huntsville, Alabama, where he serves as the associate pastor at Life Church International.” (C) Marie DisBrow for Wordsmith Shoppe Are you discouraged, weary, want to give up on the

The Incredible Patience of God will help Christians rethink their beliefs about sin and repentance, and will assure believers who are sincerely seeking a closer relationship with God.

No Smoke Without Fire
$10.99Add to cartThis book deals with apostolic responsibility, which is to recover the welfare of God’s people. The Spirit of the Lord revealed this message. It brings restoration to thousands of souls who are manipulated, tortured, and confused by the enemy called the devil. God said, “My Word must surely come to pass.”This is the time that the power of God’s Word must go forth to break every yoke and burden on many lives, setting them free so they may experience God’s blessings as never before. God said to me, “Son, did you know that many people die in this world without using the blessings prepared for them on the earth?” Some of these blessings are personally designed so that no other individual may use them, and so they pile up in the storehouse of God. This is why God gave me this revelation: to help us live in the fullness of His blessings. This book will help you to pursue, overtake, and recover and also help you to stand out in life. Seize this moment and discover the joy in serving the only true God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Overcoming Addictive Behavior (Reprinted)
$15.00Add to cartI have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.

Addiction forges its own chains of pain and problems that grow with each day and seem impossible to overcome. If you are, or someone you know is, a captive of addictive behavior, Neil Anderson and Mike Quarles have both a message of hope and a plan of action. Anyone can be set free from addictive behavior, can experience victory in Jesus, and can become an overcomer in life! The key is to identify the root cause of your problem and, instead of running away from it, run to God! Do this, and your mind and spirit will be renewed; and no matter what you struggle with, you will find your freedom in Christ!
