Love Letters
$21.17When her sister falls gravely ill, twenty-year-old Marlena Wenger takes on the responsibility of caring for her infant niece, Angel Rose. Worried that this turn of events portends a more complicated future than he is prepared for, her beau ends their relationship. Marlena is devastated, but is determined to give Angel Rose the best care possible.
Though from the Beachy Amish herself, Marlena meets Ellie Bitner, an Old Order Amish mother who offers quilting and needlepoint classes. They soon form a bond, and Marlena is drawn into the circle of Ellie’s family. Ellie’s handsome cousin seems rather taken with Marlena, but after her recent breakup, she is cautious where her feelings are concerned.
But things begin to change when Ellie’s young son Jacob discovers an older homeless man camped out in the nearby abandoned mill. Suffering from some cognitive disorder, the man has few prospects and fewer possessions–among them a small clutch of letters apparently from his own courting days. Could these letters be the key to the old man’s identity? And can they bring healing and hope to Marlena and Ellie as well?

Pastors Ministry : Biblical Priorities For Faithful Shepherds
$24.99Every pastor struggles with demands for his time, and how to determine priorities in ministry. Some choose to respond to the most urgent needs, while others seek a more balanced and intentional approach. But what determines these priorities? Where should a busy pastor look for wisdom in making decisions?
In the Pastor’s Ministry, pastor and author Brian Croft looks to the Scriptures to determine the top ten priorities for a faithful pastoral ministry. These biblically rooted responsibilities help pastors determine how to spend their time and with greater discernment respond to the demands of the church. Each of these priorities is rooted in a direct command of God’s Word, including:
*Guarding the Truth
*Preaching and Teaching the Word
*Praying for the Flock
*Setting an Example
*Visiting the Sick
*Comforting the Grieving
*Caring for Widows
*Confronting Sin
*Encouraging the Faint-Hearted
*Identifying and Training Other LeadersTo be successful and faithful in pastoral ministry, every pastor needs to understand these core callings and make them part of his regular practice. These ten responsibilities guide how a pastor schedules his time, helping him to lay the foundation for a biblically faithful ministry in his church.

Killing Christians : Living The Faith Where Its Not Safe To Believe
$18.99Could you retain your faith even if it meant losing your life? Your family’s lives?
To many Christians in the Middle East today, a “momentary, light affliction” means enduring only torture instead of martyrdom. The depth of oppression Jesus followers suffer is unimaginable to most Western Christians. Yet, it is an everyday reality for those who choose faith over survival in Syria, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, and other countries hostile to the Gospel of Christ. In Killing Christians, Tom Doyle takes readers to the secret meetings, the torture rooms, the grim prisons, and even the executions that are the “calling” of countless Muslims-turned-Christians.
Each survivor longs to share with brothers and sisters “on the outside” what Christ has taught them. Killing Christians is their message to readers who still enjoy freedom to practice their faith. None would wish their pain and suffering on those who do not have to brave such misery, but the richness gained through their remarkable trials are delivered-often in their own words-through this book. The stories are breathtaking, the lessons soul-stirring and renewing. Killing Christians presents the dead serious work of expanding and maintaining the Faith.

Strangers Son : A Novel
$12.00Just who is Father anyway? he wondered. Why did God choose him? What will become of our family? Will life be always like this? For Gershom, a twelve-year-old boy in Bible-times Egypt, being the son of a leader isn’t the big deal one might think it is. For one, his dad keeps leaving his mom, his brother, and him to go on long trips away from home. Meanwhile, Gershom is stuck trying to figure out how to be a godly young man among people who are bitterly trapped in slavery. Even worse, his very own aunt-the one his father adores-and his cousins make his mother and him feel like unwanted outsiders. And then there are those nagging questions about who his father is and why God selected him for this special mission. Join Gershom and his family on a vivid journey across an arid desert, up close to a glistening palace, and onward to a burning mountain as they follow his father’s calling from God. When Gershom experiences emotions such as fear, resentment, family pride, and joyfulness, you will recognize how his exciting story mirrors much of what you go through today. Most importantly, you will see what it might have been like to witness the events from the Bible’s book of Exodus through Gershom’s clever eyes. When the answers to Gershom’s questions are finally revealed, you will have a whole new appreciation for what it meant to be Moses’ child – “The Stranger’s Son.”

Return To The Margins
$14.99Most Christians know that all is not well with America. Every day the church feels pushed further to the margins of society. We are losing status, influence, and certain freedoms. So, what is the church to do?
In Return to the Margins Terry Coy explains that the church has historically and globally existed and thrived at the margins. Jesus ministered in the margins of society. The New Testament church grew from the margins. Most of the global church today lives and ministers in the margins. The church in post-Christian America must understand:
* What the new American church will look like
* How to respond when religious rights are taken away
* What the church must do now to prepare for the future
* How life in the margins has historically increased the church’s fruitfulnessAdd to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Joseph : A Life Of Providence Injustice And Forgiveness
$13.95God’s providence is a key concept biblically, yet increasingly Christians do not comprehend this doctrine. Many in the church today are practical deists; they believe in God the creator, but consider him distant and largely uninvolved in the day to day events of their own lives. The life narrative of Joseph as found in the book of Genesis shows us clearly that God is involved in every event of our lives, just as he was in the life of Joseph. This involvement in Joseph’s life and in our own is through God’s providence. The Anglican theologian, J. I. Packer, tell us that “providence is a continual exercise of that same energy [the universe creating energy] where by the Creator…involves Himself in all events and directs all things to their appointed end. …Christians are never in the grip of blind forces; all that happens to them is divinely planned.” What this means is that God was involved and in control not only of Joseph’s rise to power in Egypt but also in the hard events of betrayal, slavery, false accusation and abandonment. These terrible events took Joseph by surprise but not his God. God’s providence brought suffering into the life of Joseph, but that suffering had a purpose. The results of the bitter drink of suffering ultimately saved many, including the young Hebrew nation. Joseph’s life shines a spotlight on the truth that God utilizes our afflictions to work his purposes in our lives and in the lives of others. We need this perspective that Joseph developed about his life. Joseph saw the hand of God, and because he did, he responded to his brother’s betrayal with forgiveness and grace, not vengeance. Forgiveness and grace is the way of the cross; it is the path we are called to walk as Christians.

Election Of Grace
$29.99Few issues in Christian theology have sparked as much controversy over the centuries as the question of election. In this book – the inaugural volume of the Kantzer Lectures in Revealed Theology series – Stephen Williams offers a rich and nuanced account of the doctrine of election, arguing that we should diminish the role of “system” in Christian theology.
After expounding the Bible’s teaching on election, Williams turns to questions of theological method and substance. He maintains that the subject of predestination must be considered in a wider biblical context than it often is and that we cannot expect to understand election within a comprehensive systematic framework. What matters is the relation of particular truths to the particulars of life, he says, not the systematic relation of truths to each other. Williams draws on and applies the insights of remarkable nineteenth-century Anglican leader Charles Simeon throughout his study, concluding the book with a cogent discussion of Karl Barth on election.

Paul And The Trinity
$29.99Fresh perspective on Paul’s teaching about God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Spirit
Paul’s ways of speaking about God, Jesus, and the Spirit are intricately intertwined: talking about any one of the three, for Paul, implies reference to all of them together. However, much current Pauline scholarship discusses Paul’s God-, Christ-, and Spirit-language without reference to Trinitarian theology.
In contrast to that trend, Wesley Hill argues in this book that post-Pauline Trinitarian theologies represent a better approach, opening a fresh angle on Paul’s earlier talk about God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Spirit. Hill looks critically at certain wellknown discussions in the field of New Testament studies – those by N. T. Wright, Richard Bauckham, Larry Hurtado, and others – in light of patristic and contemporary Trinitarian theologies, resulting in an innovative approach to an old set of questions.
Adeptly integrating biblical exegesis and historical-systematic theology, Hill’s Paul and the Trinity shows how Trinitarian theologies illumine interpretive difficulties in a way that more recent theological concepts have failed to.

Rough Cut Men
$19.99Made For Grace Publishing
In the movie industry, the rough cut is defined as the raw, first edition of a movie, which provides an idea of what the finished product will look like, giving indications of where it has problems and where it excels.Much like a rough cut movie, Rough Cut Men are not the finished product .

Men today have hundreds of acquaintances, but most have no real friends. Men are isolated and struggling alone. And while the Bible says we are to Pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up. (Ecc. 4:10), most guys go into the battles of life with no covering fire. Every man needs a battle buddy.Rough Cut Men utilizes a strategic blend of guy movie scenes, real world tales of men, Biblical Truth and even throws in some of the author s personal testimony to accomplish one focused mission: To get men talking to each other about what s really going on in their lives. Each chapter contains hard-hitting questions designed to drive men deeper in their walk with other men and with Christ.
Rough Cut Men is real, raw and authentic. And it will equip you for the battle.”

Sex Matters (Reprinted)
$5.99The Unedited Truth About Sex
*Is hooking up really wrong?
*What about living together if you fall in love?
*If the Bible bans sex before marriage . . . is everything else fair game?
*What about same-sex relationships? Since when does God deny any kind of true love?Great questions . . . but who has the answers?
Our culture creates a lot of confusion about sex. Honestly, sometimes it’s difficult to know who’s telling the truth. On one hand, when we read our Bibles or go to church, we hear how God’s design is to wait for sex and save that kind of intimacy for marriage. But on the other hand, when we go to school, turn on the TV, or listen to many of the songs on our favorite playlists . . . they say quite the opposite. Naturally, this makes many of us wonder.Who’s right? Sex seems fun. How can something so natural be off-limits?
In Sex Matters, Jonathan McKee tackles all of these questions, giving you the frank, unvarnished truth about sex–regardless how awkward or embarrassing.

Muchos occidentales estan confundidos acerca del Islam, les tienen algo de temor a los musulmanes, o sencillamente no estan informados acerca de la relacion que existe entre la fe islamica y la cristiana.

A lo largo de su historia, Qureshi nos presenta una apologetica compasiva, pero poderosa a favor del cristianismo sobre el Islam, enfatizando las relaciones y el amor. Los apendices aportados por eruditos y expertos populares les dan mas informacion a los musulmanes para que la analicen, y a los cristianos para que la consulten en sus discusiones espirituales con sus amigos musulmanes. Fascinante como relato y util como recurso apologetico, Buscando a Ala, encontrando a Jesus, les presenta a los lectores una poderosa historia sobre el choque entre el Islam y el cristianismo dentro del corazon de un hombre, y sobre la paz que termino hallando en Jesus.

Daily Devotions For Die Hard Fans FSU Seminoles
$19.99Extra Point Publishers
Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Florida State Seminoles combines the great passion of the Seminole fan with the grand passion of the fan of Christ in one set of devotions. The result is a book that is fun while it provides a time of reflection about God and your faith. Ron Sellers, one of FSU’s greatest receivers, never got an official scholarship offer. Bobby Bowden once threatened to shoot assistant coach Brad Scott if he were wrong. FSU’s 2014 national champion women’s soccer team had a weapon the likes of which nobody had ever seen before. Jimbo Fisher made a “do-or-die call” that pretty much saved the 2013 national championship. Only one Seminole coach wanted Charlie Ward as a quarterback. These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Jameis Winston, Steve Tensi, Peter Warrick, Chris Weinke, and many others. Their stories along with legendary games, impossible victories, and historical events are told with a twist: They are all tied to God’s storyAdd to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Freedom Tools : For Overcoming Lifes Tough Problems (Reprinted)
$21.17How Intimate, Caring Conversation Brings Freedom and Healing
How many times in everyday conversation do believers struggle to comfort a hurting world? We should be “first responders,” says Andy Reese, yet we lack the tools to reach out. On top of that, we fall into the modern trend toward personal disconnect. We grow ever more polite even when we encounter people with deep needs.
But God is up to something. He is changing the rules, as believers learn to speak the truth in love with confidence by following a few simple guidelines. These easy-to-use tools can fill even our casual conversations with the saving, healing, and delivering power of Jesus Christ. This newly repackaged edition is excellent for small group studies.

Transcending Mysteries : Who Is God And What Does He Want From Us
$19.99“We fell in love with Jesus. Then we had to decide what to do with God.”
In Transcending Mysteries: Who Is God, and What Does He Want from Us? Andrew Greer and Ginny Owens take readers on a journey to answer the question: is the God of the Old Testament the same God we relate to and worship today?
As the most definitive written revelation of who God is, Scripture has always been vital to the stories of the Christian faith. The Old Testament has proved especially tough for those who have been persuaded by the gracious gospel of Jesus but also desire to surrender to a God they don’t fully comprehend. We adore the Son of God, but what about God the Father?
Using Old Testament stories Andrew and Ginny help Christ-followers reconcile a New Testament Redeemer with an Old Testament God and understand what God really wants from His people. They dialog back and forth as they share their own stories of struggle and surrender. Their comments are separated by speaker identifiers that are used throughout.

*Old Testament stories that are completed in Jesus’ message
*Dialog between Andrew Greer and Ginny Owens
*Music lyrics from Andrew and Ginny that illustrate biblical truths

7 Men : And The Secret Of Their Greatness
$19.99In Seven Men, New York Times best-selling author Eric Metaxas presents seven exquisitely crafted short portraits of widely known-but not well understood-Christian men, each of whom uniquely showcases a commitment to live by certain virtues in the truth of the gospel. Written in a beautiful and engaging style, Seven Men addresses what it means (or should mean) to be a man today, at a time when media and popular culture present images of masculinity that are not the picture presented in Scripture and historic civil life. What does it take to be a true exemplar as a father, brother, husband, leader, coach, counselor, change agent, and wise man? What does it mean to stand for honesty, courage, and charity, especially at times when the culture and the world run counter to those values? Each of the seven biographies represents the life of a man who experienced the struggles and challenges to be strong in the face of forces and circumstances that would have destroyed the resolve of lesser men.
Each of the seven men profiled-George Washington, William Wilberforce, Eric Liddell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Jackie Robinson, John Paul II, and Charles Colson-call the reader to a more elevated walk and lifestyle, one that embodies the gospel in the world around us.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
