Other Wise : Renewing Your Passion To Serve
$15.61
Being aware of and meeting the needs of others. Sounds like a simple concept, doesn’t it? But why do we find it so difficult to follow through on one of the most fundamental elements of the Christian walk? There are people with needs all around us if we would just open our eyes and realize that they desperately need our help to make it through their struggles. But how do we know what they need? More than that, when we know their need why are we so reluctant to step forward with the gifts that God has given to us to help them? Have we become too apathetic? Is it because we don’t have the time? Are our schedules so inflexible that we cannot make time for a brother or sister who needs what we have?
In his light-hearted yet poignant approach to such an important topic, Doug Chamberlain helps us to cut through the distractions and noise of everyday life to give us practical insights into this vital function of the church. He encourages us to take a close look at ourselves to realize that meeting the needs of others should be commonplace in the life of a Christian, and that we need to use God given wisdom to faithfully and consistently minister to others in their time of need.

Life Lessons From Philippians
$14.99An unexpected bill. An upcoming doctor’s appointment. A tense family visit. The list could go on. Every day struggles of all sizes creep into our lives, leaving us stressed. Frustrated. Anxious. Just plain miserable. The believers in Philippi were struggling. They were trying to grow in faith and live for Christ. Trying to deal with conflict and threats of persecution. The apostle Paul was stuck in a Roman prison when he wrote to this young church. His letter could have focused on his own troubles. Instead he wrote about living a life full of joy, peace, and contentment. He reminds us of important biblical truths and points us to Jesus as the ultimate example. Paul’s letter encourages. It inspires. His confidence reminds us of God’s wisdom and control in the difficult moments of life. His excitement challenges us in this guide to joy.

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.
