George Muller : A Life Of Prayer And Compassion
Fix Workbook : How The Twelve Steps Offer A Surprising Path Of Transformati (Wor
$19.99
Life can get messy and painful just when we think we’re doing well. Roots of personal and generational trauma can break the surface again unexpectedly.
It happened to Ian Morgan Cron in the form of a relapse at an unlikely time in his life: thirty years of sobriety from alcohol, the happy surprise of publishing success, life going well by most measures. Yet despite all his hard work processing the past, it came back to bite him. He began self-medicating under cover of prescription drugs and landed in residential rehab.
In The Fix Workbook, which accompanies the book of the same name, Ian employs his characteristic humor and pithy wit–along with some agonizing self-disclosure–to guide readers through his own mid-life double-take on the 12 Steps. Yes, they save the lives of addicts by getting users into sobriety. But they also lead individuals into profound spiritual awakenings, as millions of members across eight decades of AA history have testified.
“I’m not an addiction counselor. I’m not a researcher into the science of addiction. I’m not a clinical psychologist who specializes in treating people with substance-use disorders,” writes Ian. “But my relapse and the solution I found for it are fresh and vivid in my mind. What I’ve gleaned is worth more to me now than ever. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked you to come with me on this journey. If you don’t mind following a gimpy guide who can help you trudge the road to recovery, then I’m your guy.”

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).

Abolition Of Man
$17.99In this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
