Black Coffee : Candidly Rediscovering Friendship With God
$16.99
“I guess what inspired the title of this book was this idea of sitting down with God sharing conversation as naked and raw as the coffee I drink.” – KIRBY ALFARO Do you know God? Do you really know God? The depressing reality is that most of us don’t. In BLACK COFFEE, Kirby Alfaro confesses that the designer of the universe can seem distant, out of touch, and even unattainable. How do you even begin to build a relationship with someone like God? How do you turn an acquaintance into an old friend? This is not a self-help book bloated with formulas and templates written to touch up your spiritual reputation. Instead, this is a book that asks the tough questions, in hope for answers that bring to light a REAL, UNPOLISHED, BOLD, ROBUST, UNTAMED, RICH, STRONG, RAW, INTENSE friendship with God. Not a friendship to help you feel more like a Christian, but a friendship you’ve desired ever since the brink of your creation.

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).
