Restauracion De Dios – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartReaders encounter a new message about God’s redemptive plan for their failures and shortcomings.
One bite of forbidden fruit is all it took to send humanity reeling from God. What Sheila Walsh unveils in God Loves Broken People is that God had a divine plan even then that is hidden underneath our pain and mistakes. God intends to wield our failures, our wanderings, and the deep hurt of our lives not only to drive us toward him but also to give us a deeper experience of his grace and healing power. So many people, Christians and non-Christians alike, look at their wounds and sense that they are somehow beyond repair, that their moments of weakness make them spiritually defective. In this powerful book full of deep biblical teaching, Walsh encourages readers with God’s truth that he is not done with them yet, that he can and will redeem their failures to create a deeper intimacy with him and accomplish his kingdom purposes.
Everyone has messed up somehow, sometime. For anyone who is not able to move beyond and experience the deep love and grace of God, they need God Loves Broken People.

Wheres My Miracle Pamphlet
$4.99Add to cartWhere’s My Miracle?
What to do when God doesn’t heal youNothing can describe the horror of hearing doctors say, “You will never walk or use your hands again.”
Or – “You have cancer. I’m afraid it’s terminal.”
Like many people, you look to the Lord and pray for healing. You have friends and the pastor pray for you, but nothing happens. You read Scripture and claim the promises. You even have someone anoint you with oil or go to a healing crusade. But God doesn’t give you your miracle.
You confess every possible sin and search your heart for any unconfessed sin. Your faith is strong and you tell everyone you will be healed, yet nothing seems to happen.
You feel that God is playing a cruel joke or start to blame yourself for a lack of faith.
And that’s a shame when Christians feel that way…

Love Me Never Leave Me
$14.99Add to cartCaught off guard, surprised by their own reactions, emotions bubble up that women fight to smother. Where did that come from? What can I do with this feeling that won’t go away? Why do I feel and act this way?
Counselor Marilyn Meberg has been there too. When she got pregnant, she got scared. When her baby girl died, she got angry. When her husband died, she battled loneliness and sorrow. In between the peaks and valleys, Marilyn began to see a pattern that led to a greater understanding of herself and a richer happiness in life.
She says, “We crave connection with the ones we love most, and when our bond with them is broken, damaged, or threatened, we fear being left. We fear abandonment.
“Love Me, Never Leave Me” tells you that desiring a love that never leaves is natural, that there are ways to turn feelings of being abandoned into experiences of emotional abundance, and to know that you are God’s beloved child-and he will never leave you or forsake you.

Why The 10 Commandments Matter
$19.99Add to cartDr. D. James Kennedy believes many of the social ills that plague America today-from an exponentially rising divorce rate to the violence in our schools-stem from society’s ever-increasing distance from the Ten Commandments.
In each case, obeying one or another of these ancient rules would have prevented the tragedies. And Christians, Kennedy declares, are no exception. “Sin is not only destroying individual lives and individual health, it is mercilessly bludgeoning the family in America.” Kennedy explains, “Repentance from sin is the condition on which God will hear our prayers and heal our land. How tragic that we Christians seem to have ignored that part . . . that repentance is so desperately needed today in the Church as it kneels to pray for the repentance of the nation!”
Dr. Kennedy looks at the Ten Commandments and shows how they are, in fact, a prescription for a happier life-and a guide for a safe and productive society.
