Amigos – (Spanish)
$14.99
Euripides, un amigo del filosofo Socrates, afirmo que “los amigos multiplican los gozos y dividen las tristezas”. Pocas cosas en la vida son mas gratificantes y retadoras que la amistad. Todos experimentan su bondad en algun punto del camino, y aun asi la mayoria de nosotros podemos recordar esos momentos amargos de haber descuidado la amistad, tal vez por aos.
Juan Moncayo reconoce que vivimos en una epoca clave en la que es crucial entender las relaciones, sanar de algunas de ellas y tener un marco apropiado de lo que significa ser un verdadero amigo. Este libro te guiara a traves de un entendimiento de la amistad biblica para que puedas experimentar que la vida en realidad es mejor con amigos.
Euripides, a friend of the philosopher Socrates, affirmed that “Friends double the joys and divide the sorrows.” Fewer things in life are as fulfilling and challenging as friendship. Everyone experiences its goodness at some point along the journey, and yet most of us can remember those bitter moments of having neglected friendship, maybe for years.
Juan Moncayo recognizes that we live in a key time where it is crucial to understand relationships, heal from some of them and have a proper framework for what it is to be a good friend. In his book he will guide you through a biblical understanding of friendship so that you may experience that life is actually better with friends.

Friendish : Reclaiming Real Friendship In A Culture Of Confusion
$17.99Bible teacher Kelly Needham debunks our world’s constricted, small view of friendship and casts a richer, more life-giving, biblical vision for friendship as God meant it to be.
As the family unit grows more unstable and the average age of marriage increases, a shift is taking place in our culture: for many people, friends now play the role of family. And just as with family relationships, our friendships often don’t turn out quite as we envisioned or hoped, and we wonder, Is there a better way to do this?
In Friend-ish, Kelly Needham takes a close look at what Scripture says about friendship. She reveals the distorted view most of us have of it and recasts a glorious vision for a Christian understanding. By teaching us how to recognize symptoms of idolatry and dependency, she equips us to understand and address the problems that arise in friendship–from neediness to discord and even sexual temptation. With hard-fought wisdom, a clear view of Scripture, and been-there perspective, Needham reorients us toward the purposeful, loving relationships we all crave that ultimately bring us closer to God.

Company We Keep
$9.99Friendship: it’s one of the simplest of human relationships in comparison to marriage or family relationships, yet it’s one of the least understood and practiced. For all of our progress in making connections through Facebook, Twitter, and other social media, people are consistently experiencing loneliness and growing disenchanted with the whole notion of friendship.
Could it be that our understanding of friendship has been more informed by pop culture and social media, and less informed by the vision of friendship offered in Scripture? Is it possible that friendship exists for a greater purpose than merely our enjoyment and comfort? Does real friendship involve more than just hanging out on a weekend, participating in a book club, or hitting the golf course together? These questions and more are answered in this book.
Broader and deeper than simple fellowship, biblical friendship is first and foremost about a relationship with Jesus Christ. As you are brought into friendship and relationship with the Father, Jesus Christ calls you a friend! It is out of this friendship that our human friendships find their beginning and their purpose.
Aelred, a Cistercian monk who wrote a profound treatise on friendship, said, “And so in friendship are joined honor and charm, truth and joy, sweetness and good-will, affection and action. And all these take their beginning from Christ, advance through Christ, and are perfected in Christ.” This is the core of biblical friendship, and what sets it apart from what the world is offering: it all flows from Jesus Christ. Friendship finds its origin, purpose, and power in Jesus. Our human friendships then must be shaped by this life-changing truth.
Biblical friendship is deep, honest, pure, transparent, and liberating. It is also attainable. Dig into this book, and learn how your friendships can embody this amazing and wonderful reality.
