Habits Of Highly Effective Christians
$18.99
Using personal anecdotes from years in foreign missions work, the author shares rich biblical insights into familiar subjects. He makes fasting doable, tells how to pray in the will of God, elevates obedience as the highest criterion for God’s rewards, and defines personal success in terms that eliminate the pride and intimidation that result from comparisons with others. This book turns selfdiscipline into a wonderful key for personal growth, and crises into stepping stones for self-development. These habits can change your outlook, maybe even your world. A companion Bible Study Guide is also available. “If you want to be challenged to think deeper, go further, and live your Christian faith more fully and fruitfully, then run to get this book. With his direct and plainspoken application of Scripture and lessons learned from his own rich life, he will make you think anew about yours. This book will change you. I promise.” -BARBARAWOLFER, HOUSEWIFE, ZEALOUS CHRISTIAN, AND ENGLISH PROFESSOR. “Ron Meyers’ book is a superb resource for maturing Christians who want to be challenged, encouraged, and counseled in living lives that count for Christ. This warm and readable work has all the humanity of a man in love with his Lord and his subject. It is witty and wise, and I heartily recommend it.” -WAYNE MARTINDALE, AUTHOR, C.S. LEWIS SCHOLAR, AND PROFESSOR OF ENGLISH LITERATURE AT WHEATON COLLEGE.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak
$26.99Add to cartGod always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
