When Hurting People Come To Church
$22.99
People are hurting at a scale we’ve never seen. They’re dealing with an onslaught of issues like anxiety, grief, mental illness, family troubles, and hopelessness. Pastors and counselors can’t see everyone in need. This book can help.
Based on national research with more than 2,000 church leaders, social researcher and bestselling author Shaunti Feldhahn and psychologist and professor Dr. James Sells show how this is the church’s moment -and present a tested vision that is already thriving in churches of every size across the country!
We have an incredible opportunity to bring healing to the hurting, take the load off of the already-too-busy pastor and counselor, and grow healthy church communities of care–for now and many years to come.
Today, we face a dramatic rise in every psychological and spiritual need, just as affordable counseling solutions are more difficult to find. For perspective, 25 million people–more than the population of Florida–are not getting help for severe anxiety alone. Enter the church and millions of Christian lay people who understand brokenness, grace, and the power of relationship.
In every community, the church has the opportunity to be a key place people go for help . In fact, church growth experts describe this type of church care ministry as the evangelism, discipleship, and church growth method of the 21st century.
This book will share how this works, and equip you as a busy leader to:
*understand the mental health crisis in your community
*raise up motivated lay people within the church to help address the spiritual and emotional needs of the hurting
*partner with counselors and other mental health professionals most effectively
*organize the church’s time and resources to reach the most people, while freeing you to step in where you are most needed
*grow your outreach to your community
Don’t miss this opportunity to meet people’s needs, grow your people, and grow your church.

Ever Constant

Peter quickly recognizes her finer qualities but also notices her troubling way of coping with her struggles.

Case For Christ Student Edition
$16.99There’s little question that he actually lived. But miracles? Rising from the dead? Some of the stories you hear about him sound like just that—stories. A reasonable person would never believe them, let alone the claim that he’s the only way to God! But a reasonable person would also make sure that he or she understood the facts before jumping to conclusions. That’s why Lee Strobel—an award-winning legal journalist with a knack for asking tough questions—decided to investigate Jesus for himself. An atheist, Strobel felt certain his findings would bring Christianity’s claims about Jesus tumbling down like a house of cards. He was in for the surprise of his life. Join him as he retraces his journey from skepticism to faith. You’ll consult expert testimony as you sift through the truths that history, science, psychiatry, literature, and religion reveal. Like Strobel, you’ll be amazed at the evidence—how much there is, how strong it is, and what it says. The facts are in. What will your verdict be in The Case for Christ?

Case For Christ (Revised)
$19.99Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.
Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it’s not fiction. It’s a riveting quest for the truth about history’s most compelling figure.
The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book’s impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.
