Marys First Christmas
$13.73
We have all seen the story of the birth of Jesus portrayed at Christmas. It is a beautiful story, and we never tire of watching each scene unfold. “Mary’s First Christmas” is the story of the birth of our Savior as described through the eyes of Joseph and Mary. We may gain insight from them as they picture for us the adversity as well as the joy and excitement they experienced from the time of the angel’s appearance to the wondrous birth of God’s Son.
We catch a glimpse of the awe that Mary felt upon Gabriel’s announcement, of the joy she shared with Elizabeth and Zechariah as they awaited the miraculous birth of their own son. We see Joseph’s apprehension at Mary’s announcement, and how then after seeing the angel in a dream commits his life to God as Jesus’ earthly father. We can feel the excitement of the taxing journey to Bethlehem for the census, the fear and hope they felt, even to Joseph’s naming of the little donkey who carried the King of the Ages on his back…”Rocky”, in memory of the sometimes rocky and dangerous path they followed.
We see some of the sensations they felt with their description of the camp fires, the sheep for sacrifice, the beautiful stars in the night sky, and then the discouragement of finding no room upon reaching their destination. But God was always with them, and because of His grace, we know today what they did not yet understand…that this wonderful child, born in a stable, the very Son of God, would bring salvation to a sinful and lost world.

Faith Still Moves Mountains
$28.99From FOX News anchor and author Harris Faulkner comes a collection of powerful, true-life stories of resilience, healing, rescue, and protection.
We need reminders of God’s power now more than ever.
We often think about prayer as a wish list, with God as Santa Claus. The reality is that the power of prayer reminds us not only how small we are, but also how big God is. Prayer is hope put into action. And prayer works.
From the aftermath of the devastating earthquake in Haiti to the theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado, believers testify to how God inspired hope even when all seemed lost.
Two teenagers who were saved from treacherous seas by a vessel named Amen now give thanks for the rescue that changed their lives. A woman’s near-death experience with COVID-19 turned out to be the crisis freeing her from despair. Others speak to how prayer helped them navigate family trauma, overcome abuse, and cope with mental illness and depression. Historical accounts of miracles testify to God’s power throughout time, and Faulkner recounts the role of faith and prayer in her own life and the life of her father.
Along with these stories of God’s presence, the book includes an exclusive packet of newly written prayers. Created to reflect the current times, this prayer booklet will provide a road map for putting the lessons of these stories into action.
Faith Still Moves Mountains reminds us that God’s light always shines through the darkness. Through these testimonies, we learn prayer isn’t just a ritual, it’s a vital spiritual strategy in a world that wants us to give up the fight.

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.
