Cant Help Myself
$15.99People often ask Richard T. Vander Vaart, “What is it like to be a minister?” In response he tells stories of his ministry experiences. Eventually, these stories were written down and collected into Can’t Help Myself, a series of daily devotions created to help readers reflect upon their lives during the month of December.
The devotions in this book are complemented with beautiful photography to encourage deeper meditation, thoughtful discovery, and exploration of the scriptures. Some stories are humorous, some are serious, and some are whimsical, but all are told in a rich writing style and based in the love and compassion of God’s Word.

Ragman : And Other Cries Of Faith (Expanded)
$15.99First published in 1984, and now newly revised and expanded, Ragman and Other Cries of Faith helped to establish Wangerin’s reputation as one of the most cutting-edge Christian writers on the market. It presents thirty-four interlocking “stories” in a variety of styles, ranging from gently reflective to incantatory. Together they embody a “story theology” that explores in fresh, powerful ways the meaning of faith, the persons of Christ, the community of faith, and the individual servant of faith. This collection interweaves short fiction, biblical stories, parables, autobiographical essays, prayers, meditations, poetry, drama, fable, and legend. The opening chapter, “Ragman” (still one of Wangerin’s most quoted writings), is a moving parable about Jesus encountered in a most unexpected place—as a rag seller on the streets of a modern city. For this new edition, the author has provided eleven new pieces, making this an all-new, updated definitive edition.

Cat In The Pulpit
$21.23Cat lovers comprise a large share of our population! Although Christian literature abounds with devotional books for the general public, teachers, teens, children, mothers, etc., until now, cat lovers have been excluded. No longer is this true, for author Lois Sink offers Cat in the Pulpit, a collection of 101 devotions just for cat lovers. Each of these vignettes – true incidents in the life of Fluffy, her four-legged companion of ten years – is written in an easy, laid-back manner interspersed with humor, yet it sets forth a spiritual lesson the author has learned.

My Love Song To Jesus
$16.86The main purpose of my writing this book is to let others know that there is a wonderful Jesus who still performs miracles today, if you will let Him into your heart and mind. If you don’t know Jesus as your personal Savior, this book gives some brief insights on how He has delivered my family and me over the years and tells you how you can ask Him into your life. These short stories (the miracles are true accounts) show what God has done and is still doing in my life and I want to tell others through this publication. I am not able to stand up and preach His Word, but I pray that this short booklet will teach others how to come to the saving grace of Jesus Christ. I wanted to express my love for Jesus in a way that maybe would make other people want to know Him. I just felt the need to have something not too in-depth or too long that you could give to a friend or family member who might need some words of encouragement.
