  Signs Of Life

  $19.99

  Discover personal transformation that changes the world. Just as there are physical signs that determine the overall health and wellness of a patient, so too there are signs of life determining the extent to which a man or woman has been transformed into the image of Jesus. It’s a smile, a simple lifestyle, compassion in the face of misfortune, willingness to commit random acts of kindness, benevolence, social justice, tears, words. In Signs of Life best-selling author David Jeremiah leads readers through a forty-day journey to a fuller understanding of what these signs are and how to be a person marked by them. This journey pursues a life characterized by relevancy, surrender, authenticity, generosity, and compassion-and in so doing, transforms individuals, communities, and nations. Whether new to the Christian faith or considered an old-timer, the reader will discover what being transformed personally into the image of Jesus means and be equipped with a greater vision for the life they are freed to live.

  Notes

  Additional Info
  Ideas have consequences. And sometimes those ideas can be squeezed in to slogans, slapped on bumper stickers and tweeted into cyberspace. These compact messages coming at us from all directions often compress in a few words entire ethical systems. It turns out that there’s a lot more to the ideas behind these slogans–ideas that need to be sorted out before we make important moral decisions as individuals or as societies.

  In this revised and expanded edition of Steve Wilkens’s widely-used text, the author has updated his introductions to basic ethical systems:

  cultural relativism
  ethical egoism
  utilitarianism
  behaviorism
  situation ethics
  Kantian ethics
  virtue ethics
  natural law ethics
  divine command theory

  He has also added two new chapters:

  evolutionary ethics
  narrative ethics

  With clarity and wit Wilkens unpacks the complicated ideas behind the slogans and offers Christian evaluations of each.

  Historical Dictionary Of The Friends Quakers

  $271.66

  The modern reputation of Friends in the United States and Europe is grounded in the relief work they have conducted in the presence and aftermath of war. Friends (also known as Quakers) have coordinated the feeding and evacuation of children from war zones around the world. They have helped displaced persons without regard to politics. They have engaged in the relief of suffering in places as far-flung as Ireland, France, Germany, Ethiopia, Egypt, China, and India. Their work was acknowledged with the award of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1947 to the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) and the Friends Service Council of Great Britain. More often, however, Quakers live, worship, and work quietly, without seeking public attention for themselves. Now, the Friends are a truly worldwide body and are recognized by their Christ-centered message of integrity and simplicity, as well as their nonviolent stance and affirmation of the belief that all people-women as well as men-may be called to the ministry.

  The expanded second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Friends (Quakers) relates the history of the Friends through a chronology, an introductory essay, an extensive bibliography, and over 700 cross-referenced dictionary entries on concepts, significant figures, places, activities, and periods. This book is an excellent access point for scholars and students, who will find the overviews and sources for further research provided by this book to be enormously helpful.

  Relics And Miracles

  $27.99

  Esteemed translator Boris Jakim here presents for the first time in English two major theological essays by Sergius Bulgakov. In “On Holy Relics,” Bulgakov’s 1918 response to Bolshevik desecration of the relics of Russian saints, he develops a comprehensive theology of relics, connecting them with the Incarnation and showing their place in sacramental theology in general. In “On the Gospel Miracles” (1932), Bulgakov presents a Christological doctrine of the Gospel miracles, focusing on the question of how human activity relates to the works of Christ. Both works are suffused with Bulgakov’s faith in Christian resurrection – and with his signature “religious materialism,” where the corporeal is illuminated by the spiritual and the earthly is transfigured into the heavenly.

  Liturgy Of Grief

  $32.94

  In Lamentations, we read of the unbearable grief experienced by a group of believers. Leslie Allen suggests the book can be read as the script of a liturgy performed to help the people of God come to terms with the fall of Jerusalem and the national catastrophe it entailed. It reveals God’s sometimes hidden support for those who grieve and for their caregivers. In this unique commentary on Lamentations, respected Old Testament scholar and volunteer hospital chaplain Leslie Allen appropriates this oft-neglected book of the Bible to deal with a universal issue. Incorporating stories of pastoral encounters with hospital patients, Allen integrates Scripture and pastoral care to present a biblical model for helping those coping with grief. The book includes a foreword by Nicholas Wolterstorff, author of Lament for a Son.

  What Is He Thinking

  $28.55

  In WHAT IS HE THINKING??, Rebecca interviews a range of men from high-profile types to the guys next door, men that every woman can relate to. Although the interviews focus on single guys ages 20-35, Rebecca also includes words of wisdom from older mentors she respects who have been successfully married for years, people like her dad, life coach, and pastor.

  The men share their thoughts on topics like how women can respect themselves and the men in their lives, modesty, purity, taking it slow, friendship, letting guys lead, and more. This book gives them the floor to say what they would really like women to know.

  The men respond candidly to questions such as:
  *What is the most attractive quality to you in a woman?
  *Is modesty truly attractive?
  *Is neediness a turn-off?
  *What do you find beautiful?
  *How can we be dependent on God for our identity, not on you?
  *How can we help you with boundaries physically?

  Rebecca also discusses her own dating life, speaking openly about the single life, her struggle with loneliness, and her hope for the future. She challenges women to see the men in their lives as brothers in Christ and to trust God with their dating lives.

  Antiguos Secretos Biblicos Des – (Spanish)

  $15.99

  Un alarmante numero de cristianos han sido alimentados con la idea de que nuestro Dios es un dios tacao y enojado. Nada podria estar mas lejos de la verdad. De hecho, Larry Huch sugiere que los ojos de Dios estan constantemente recorriendo “toda la tierra” (2 Cronicas 16:9), buscando a alguien a quien sanar, a quien bendecir, a alguien a quien prosperar y a alguien a quien mostrar favor.

  En su nuevo libro, Antiguos Secretos Biblicos Desvelados, Huch revela las antiguas bendiciones de Dios para su vida, como:
  La produccion a ciento por uno en la parabola de la semilla
  El secreto de la oracion revelado en la escalera de Jacob
  El poder protector de la mezuza
  El milagro de Purim para transformar la historia de su vida
  Fe biblica para los ultimos tiempos
  El pacto de Dios para el exito
  El poder de Dios multiplicado en su vida con las cuatro copas de la Comunion

  Al entender y acceder a estas verdades intemporales en la Tora, los cristianos pueden volver a descubrir el destino que Dios quiere para su pueblo. No debiamos vivir vidas de vacio ritual religioso; !debiamos ser brillantes ejemplos del poder, la bendicion y el favor de Dios!

  An alarming number of Christians have been fed the notion that our God is a mean and angry god. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, Larry Huch suggests that God’s eyes are constantly searching “to and fro throughout the whole earth” (2 Chronicles 16:9), looking for someone to heal, someone to bless, someone to prosper, and someone to favor.

  In his new book, Unveiling Ancient Biblical Secrets, Huch reveals God’s ancient blessings for your life, such as:
  The hundredfold breakthrough in the parable of the seed
  The secret of prayer revealed in Jacob’s ladder
  The protective power of the mezuzah
  Purim’s miracle for turning your life story around
  Biblical faith for the last days
  God’s covenant of success

  Hailee : A Novel

  $12.99

  At twenty years of age, Nathaniel Maxwell Adams Jr., better known as Nate, fulfills a prophecy he made eleven years prior by moving to Pine Haven. What he hadn’t planned in his youth, though, was to become a pastor, especially since his parents adamantly oppose the idea. So, as he shepherds a flock in the growing Montana town, he feels called to another smaller yet no less significant mission field: his mother and father.

  For years, orphan Hailee Annigan was just a ragamuffin, roaming the Cincinnati streets trying to keep food in the mouths of her two younger brothers and herself. This often meant thieving, which landed her in the Sanctuary of Hope, a home for delinquent youngsters.

  There, her life changed, thanks to her patient, loving teachers. Now, at eighteen, she pursues a dream to become a teacher herself and bravely accepts a position in Montana. She still has faith that she’ll find her brothers again someday, but for now, she’s ready to put the past behind her.

  When their paths converge in Pine Haven, their lives begin to overlap in ways they can’t ignore. And they must discover if God intends for their destinies to converge, as well.

  Stepping Through Troubled Times

  $41.26

  Stepping through Troubled Times is a cry in the wilderness. It cuts through the media hype and fear mongering to show why Americans must stand strong. Biblical truth reveals a clear parallel between political liberalism and the lost nature of man as evidenced by fear of global catastrophe and widespread religious hypocrisy. A subtle tyranny has grown out of failure to accept responsibility for our own actions and developed into a cry for government to provide all our needs. Dr. Nelsen focuses the Word of God upon both the political unrest and our personal failure of faith which has led America down the destructive path towards socialism.

  The reason for the Stepping through Troubled Times is two-fold:

  (1) Confusion of Americans: Patriotic Americans and Christians in general are confused by the media hype and fear-filled news reports that inundate our daily lives. Political correctness and hypocrisy is pervasive in our culture. Discerning truth has become much more difficult in recent years. Moral relativism has replaced the awareness of right and wrong. Immoral behavior is more acceptable in this generation than ever before. Tolerance of evil has become a requirement, and Christian values are seen as bigotry.

  (2) The depth of our trouble: Most Americans are unaware of the extent of socialist ideology in our government and society. Soft tyranny has invaded our thinking and legislative action has restricted the fundamental freedoms envisioned by the Founding Fathers. Our God-given liberties have been codified into law for government to provide. God has been taken out of the picture, and America as a nation is drifting rapidly into a Marxist ideology.

  The reason for the Stepping through Troubled Times is two-fold:

  (1) Confusion of Americans: Patriotic Americans and Christians in general are confused by the media hype and fear-filled news reports that inundate our daily lives. Political correctness and hypocrisy is pervasive in our culture. Discerning truth has become much more difficult in recent years. Moral relativism has replaced the awareness of right and wrong. Immoral behavior is more acceptable in this generation than ever before. Tolerance of evil has become a requirement, and Christian values are seen as bigotry.

  (2) The depth of our trouble: Most Americans are unaware of the extent of socialist ideology in our government and society. Soft tyranny has invaded our thinking and legislative action has restricted the fundamental freedoms envisioned by the Founding Fathers. Our God-given liberties have been codified into law for government to provide. God has been taken out of the picture, and America as a nation is drifting rapidly into a Marxist ideology.

  Secret Of The Laurel Crown

  $45.26

  The note on the old shoebox read: “Carolyn, I bought this at a garage sale. I know how tough life has been for you these past months. I thought this might help a sad girl smile. Love, Gram.”Carolyn lifted the lid and dumped its contents. Five hundred pieces of the jigsaw puzzle tumbled out onto the worn yellow wool blanket. As she pushed the pieces aside, a folded parchment-its edges ragged with age-caught in a small hole.

  Picking it up carefully so as not to tear the creases, she unfolded it and read the words in faded black, handwritten script: “he agape nikai panta. The Laurel Crown shall choose the wearer. Be warned. Beware of the Baal Contract.”

  Was the secret message about the puzzle? Maybe the message had nothing to do with the puzzle. Somebody from a foreign country could’ve put it into the box later on. But why? And who?In seeking answers to those questions, Carolyn and her brother Jimmy’s adventures begin on the planet of Double Suns.

  Love Sex And Happily Ever After

  $17.00

  What do you do if you want a marriage that doesn’t just survive, but thrives? That doesn’t just begin romantically but ends magnificently?

  Answer: You do something different.

  You’ve seen marriages fail time and again. Even relationships you thought were bullet proof don’t last-or maybe worse-fade away to a cold, gray lovelessness. It’s no wonder that for today’s generation, “getting what you want” is often a substitute for love, and disillusionment about marriage is the new normal.

  But you can have a long-term, love-blessed marriage. Whether you’re still considering it, are about to be wed, or have been married for a while and want to make changes, Love, Sex & Happily Ever After delivers an infusion of hope. Author Craig Groeschel clearly and honestly lays out the choices and commitments you can make now to change the way you think and act-to build the relationship you want for the rest of your life.

  With an invigorating mix of personal story, practical guidance and biblical truth, Craig invites you into a candid conversation about first dates, sex, communication, integrity, forgiveness, and commitment. Along the way, he shows how you can build a soul-enriching, God-honoring relationship with the one you love…and believe together again in your very own “happily ever after.”

  Grieving Hope And Solace

  $9.99

  Here is a tender blending of memoir and theology, a joining of heart and mind, a sober yet joyful consideration of Scripture in the face of one of life’s deepest and most grievous trials. What exactly happens to those who die as Christians? What do they immediately experience? What is their existence like right now? What will happen to them when Christ returns to earth? These questions can be especially acute for grieving loved ones who remain. What comfort and assurance does Scripture offer you? What can you truly know and be confident of? These are the questions and concerns that faced Pastor Albert N. Martin following the death of his wife of nearly 50 years. He knew that, if he were to grieve in a way that glorified God, he needed to know the answers to those questions, as clearly as possible, directly from Scripture. This book is the product of his grief, his tears, his travails, his prayers, and his concentrated study of God’s Word. A beloved pastor and widely respected preacher for half a century, Albert Martin handles Scripture with the greatest of skill, care, wisdom, and respect. In this book, you will learn what God tells us with regard to the burning questions that so often accompany the death of a loved one in Christ. There is comfort for the grief. There are answers to the questions. The Bible does offer hope, solace, healing, and confidence. Pastor Albert Martin has been there. Let him share with you the deep comfort, encouragement, and joy that he found, through Scripture, in the midst of his grieving.

  George Washington Carver

  $14.99

  Christian Encounters, a series of biographies from Thomas Nelson Publishers, highlights important lives from all ages and areas of the Church. Some are familiar faces. Others are unexpected guests. But all, through their relationships, struggles, prayers, and desires, uniquely illuminate our shared experience. A generation of 20th-century Americans knew him as a gentle, stoop-shouldered old black man who loved plants and discovered more than a hundred uses for the humble peanut. George Washington Carver goes beyond the public image to chronicle the adventures of one of history’s most inspiring and remarkable men. George Washington Carver was born a slave. After his mother was kidnapped during the Civil War, his former owners raised him as their own child. He was the first black graduate of Iowa State, and turned down a salary from Thomas Edison higher than the U.S. President to stay at the struggling Tuskegee Institute, where he taught and encouraged poor black students for nearly half a century. Carver was an award-winning painter and acclaimed botanist who saw God the Creator in all of nature. The more he learned about the world, the more convinced he was that everything in it was a gift from the Almighty, that all people were equal in His sight, and that the way to gain respect from his fellow man was not to demand it, but to earn it.
