And Life Comes Back
$17.00
When your life falls apart-with a diagnosis, a lost relationship, a tragedy that you think will destroy you-beyond the pain, a new day awaits.
This evocative book draws on situations to illustrate how, in the wake of personal loss and disappointment, a fresh serving of hope and opportunity arrives with each sunrise. We all know someone who has wondered if “life will ever come back.” A divorce, an illness, the death of a loved one, or some other numbing event puts questions and doubts on the future. The author learned this lesson unexpectedly in a few tragic hours while enduring the sudden death of her 30-year-old husband. Williford writes about her challenging search for life again-with two young boys who now were fatherless. Tricia’s first-person voice takes readers on a candid journey through stories and reflections to explore the ways her family changed and stayed the same, how she and the boys found themselves held in the arms of God when they lost the man they loved. With soaring prose, And Life Comes Back exposes the fleeting significance of a life made of moments.The book is a beautifully expressed love story that documents the bitter-sweet frailty of the human experience, while offering a traveler’s guide to life again after setbacks.

Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$12.99In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), bestselling author Max Lucado explores the life and character of Jesus, helping participants become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told. As Max explains in this study, for thirty-three years Jesus felt everything that we have ever felt: weakness, weariness, rejections. He got colds. His feelings got hurt. His feet grew tired. His head ached.
To think of Jesus in such terms almost seems irreverent. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. Clean up the manure from around the manger. Wipe the sweat out of his eyes. Pretend he never snored or hit his thumb with a hammer. There is something about keeping Jesus divine that keeps him distant, packaged, and predictable.
But we have to remember that by Jesus becoming human, God made it possible for us to see him and hear his voice. If we want to know what matters to God, all we need to do is look in the Bible to see what matters to Jesus. If we want to know what God is doing in our world, we need only ponder the words of Jesus. By learning more about the person Jesus was and is, we come to understand more clearly the people we were created to be.
Jesus will inspire group members to spend time at the foot of the cross and search the heart of the one who would rather die for them than live without them.
Designed for use with the Jesus Video Study (sold separately).
