Living In Wonder
$29.99Add to cartThe West has become “disenchanted”–closed to the idea that the universe contains the supernatural, the metaphysical, or the non-material. Christianity is in crisis. People today are leaving the Church because faith has become dry and lifeless. But people aren’t leaving faith for atheism. They are still searching for the divine, and it might just be right under their noses.
In Living in Wonder, thought leader, cultural critic, and New York Times bestselling author Rod Dreher shows you how to encounter and embrace wonder in the world. In his trademark mixture of analysis, reporting, and personal story, Dreher brings together history, cultural anthropology, neuroscience, and the ancient Church to show you–no matter your religious affiliation–how to reconnect with the natural world and the Great Tradition of Christianity so you can relate to the world with more depth and connection.
He shares stories of miracles, rumors of angels, and outbreaks of awe to offer hope, as well as a guide for discerning and defending the truth in a confusing and spiritually dark culture, full of contemporary spiritual deceptions and tempting counterfeit spiritualities.
The world is not what we think it is. It is far more mysterious, exciting, connected, and adventurous. As you learn practical ways to regain a sense of wonder and awaken your sense of God’s presence–through prayer, attention, and living by spiritual disciplines–your eyes will be opened, and you will find the very thing every one of us searches for: our ultimate meaning.

Consider The Lilies
$19.99Add to cartFind freedom from anxiety as you lift your gaze from the problems and pressures of this world to the changeless and powerful character of your heavenly Father.
Is my cancer back? Is my job secure? Will I ever get married? Are my children safe? Our lives are often a chronicle of trouble, pain, and uncertainty–and God’s children yearn for peace. Many who wrestle with anxiety and despair know that the Bible calls them to “trust God,” but what does that even mean?
In Consider the Lilies, pastor, podcaster, and speaker Jonny Ardavanis shows us God’s consistent response to those who are worn down by worry and badgered by melancholy: He proclaims His own character. Drawing on that perspective-shifting model, Jonny offers biblical insight on how to ground our thoughts and fix our gaze on who God is.
Compassionate, biblical, and timely, Consider the Lilies explores:
*How dwelling on the character of God is the surest pathway to peace
*The root causes of anxiety and worry in the Bible
*What the Bible says about the integration of our physical and spiritual lives
*Why worry grieves God’s heart as our FatherConsider the Lilies is for those who long for liberation from their anxiety and fear–and desire to deeply know the God they are called and enabled to trust. If you are starved for hope and gasping for peace, consider the character of your heavenly Father, who welcomes all who are anxious, fearful, and melancholy to trust in Him.

Scandal Of The Kingdom Workbook (Workbook)
$19.99Add to cartThere is a striking difference between the way that most churches operate today and the way Jesus the conducted his ministry when he was on earth. Most churches today spend their time and resources trying to get people to come into their doors and join their fellowship. But Jesus didn’t concern himself with trying to get followers. One time, he even responded to such a request by saying, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head” (Matthew 8:12). The implication to the person making the request was clear: Do you really want to be my follower and lead that kind of life?
Instead, what we find in the Gospels is that the message Jesus taught–and in fact the sole message of the New Testament–was the nature and availability of the kingdom of God. It was now accessible to all people, both Jews and Gentiles alike. Jesus revealed much of these scandalous truths about God’s kingdom through parables. Yet while these parables constitute some of his best-known teachings, they are also some of the least understood. Even the disciples weren’t always sure what they meant.
Perhaps this is why they asked Jesus, “Why do you speak to the people in parables” (Matthew 13:10). Jesus responded by saying, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, not to them” (verse 11). Jesus knew that while the kingdom of God was available to everyone, not everyone would have the desire to go through the work to “ask, seek, knock” and “receive” the truths that had come to bring (see Matthew 7:7-8).
The Scandal of the Kingdom Workbook, which accompanies the book of the same name, presents carefully curated new material from the late Dallas Willard to help readers understand the heart of Jesus’ key parables, why Jesus chose story to communicate life’s deepest truths, and how these stories are still revolutionary (and even shocking) in showing us how to live out God’s kingdom on earth today. With the rich insights and biblical scholarship common to all of Willard’s works, this guide will help readers:
*Become more passionate about living the gospel in the full scope of Jesus’ vision for them
*Better share their faith with those who have become disillusioned with Christianity
*Unlock the excitement of living in the upside-down kingdom of GodThe Scandal of the Kingdom Workbook is for anyone who:
*Wants to explore Jesus’ teachings but are confused about what his parables mean
*Loves Dalla

I Want To Trust You But I Dont Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video (Student/S
$24.99Add to cartTrust is the oxygen of all human relationships. But it’s also what trips you up after you’ve been burned. Maybe a friend constantly lets you down. A leader or organization you respect turns out to be different than they portray themselves to be. A spouse cheats on you. A family member betrays you. You’re exhausted by other people’s choices and starting to question your own discernment. And you’re wondering, If God let this happen, can he even be trusted?
How can you live well and step into the future when you keep stumbling over trust issues? Lysa TerKeurst says it’s not simply about finding better people to walk with. It’s about developing the stability you long for within yourself and with God, so you don’t become cynical and carry a broken belief system into every new relationship.
In I Want to Trust You, but I Don’t Bible Study, Lysa digs into the Scriptures and helps you apply how to:
*identify which of the eleven relational red flags are stirring up distrust, so you can pinpoint why you’re feeling uneasy;
*stop having more faith in your fears coming true than God coming through for you by asking crucial what if questions to better process your doubts;
*recognize when a fractured relationship can be repaired by considering a reasonable list of characteristics necessary for rebuilding trust; and
*understand the physical, emotional, and neurological impact of the betrayals you’ve experienced and start healing from the inside out.

Growing Women In Ministry
$29.99Add to cartWhile many aspects of leadership development are similar for women and men, women face different cultural expectations and have different experiences than their male counterparts. Anna Morgan’s own experiences in pastoral ministry leadership launched her search for a holistic way to grow the skills, influence, and authority of women who are gifted and called as leaders.
This book provides a positive, comprehensive, research-based model for developing women in church and ministry leadership. Morgan identifies seven aspects of leadership development that form a woman over her lifetime. Three work inwardly as a woman grows in leadership: spiritual calling, giftedness, and emotional intelligence. Four work externally to shape her authority and influence: home life supports, ministry leadership contexts, leadership relationships, and communication.
Growing Women in Ministry offers a new way to understand how women leaders are formed and how they rise to become influential leaders in positions of authority in churches and ministries. It is written in a clear, accessible style for both female ministry leaders and men seeking to promote female leaders. It includes policy suggestions, strategies, values for ideal growing conditions, and discussion questions, making it an ideal resource for ministry, practical theology, and leadership courses, church and parachurch leaders, and pastors.

Longing For Joy
$18.00Add to cartCan we still have joy in a world of pain and anxiety?
The troubles around us and in our lives lead many of us into a joyless experience where despair and hopelessness are the norm. Yet something within us still longs for a joy that transcends our challenges and gives us meaning and satisfaction.
Alastair Sterne says that our inner longings for joy actually point us to a God of joy who gives us both the capacity for joy and the realities of joyful experience. Sterne explores pathways to joy and why we often experience the absence of joy. He then offers theologically grounded and research-based practices for becoming people of joyful presence. Even if we are not temperamentally happy enthusiasts, we can gradually cultivate the deep abiding joy that we were created for and that enriches the world around us.

Living Out Loud
$17.99Add to cartIf you cringe at the thought of pulling out a napkin and drawing a chasm that only the cross can span, you’re in good company.
While most of us have the desire to share the gospel, we don’t know how to bring it up. Let’s face it… it’s not easy to go from “How is the weather” to “Jesus died for you,” and no one is walking up to us on the street asking, “What must I do to be saved?” So what’s a well-intentioned Christian to do?
Enter Living Out Loud.
Living out loud is not a strategy for sharing the gospel, but a way of living that begets the gospel. It’s about developing an active, natural posture of loving God and talking about Him as we go about our daily lives and rhythms in ways that are obvious to those around us.
It’s about making God such an integral part of our daily lives that we can’t help but talk about Him–at home, at work, with family and with friends–not as a sales pitch, but as a natural part of our regular conversations.
Living out loud isn’t about “sharing” the gospel; it’s about “living” it. When who we are as new creatures becomes obvious to those around us in the way we speak and live, and love, evangelism stops becoming a duty, and simply becomes inevitable.
In Living Out Loud, you’ll discover:
*How to bring a refreshing countercultural presence in one relationship and one conversation at a time
*How to demonstrate our beliefs to unbelievers in our daily lives and habits
*How to spiritually engage others in a way that feels natural
It’s time for a new approach to evangelism. Let Living Out Loud show you the way to communicate and truly embody the message of the gospel.

Angels And Demons
$17.99Add to cartChristians in Bible-believing churches often do not receive explicit teaching on angels because expositional sermons focus on the meaning of the text-and the biblical authors are rarely focused on discussing angels. The consequence is that legends or superstitions often cloud our reflections about supernatural beings. Pastors also rarely receive in-depth exposure to this subject in seminary. This book satisfies a need for teaching about the angels for a popular audience who want to speak and think biblical about the spiritual realm, especially because many books on angels teach speculative views or borrow their ideas from other religions of the ancient near east.

Invisible Jesus : A Book About Leaving The Church And Looking For Christ
$22.99Add to cartIn recent years, we’ve seen an increase in the number of Christians who are deconstructing their faith, critically analyzing Christianity and finding that it falls short. Many end up leaving behind the beliefs and commitments they formerly held. While many have written on how to reverse this trend, Scot McKnight and Tommy Preson Phillips believe that rather than dismissing these concerns we need to listen more carefully.
Deconstructors are uncovering serious weaknesses in today’s church–a renewed fundamentalism, toxic leadership, and legalistic thinking among them. Utilizing the results of recent studies by Pew, Gallup, and others, McKnight and Phillips take a careful look at what deconstructors are really saying, seeking to better understand why many are shedding elements of the faith and church of their youth but also engaging in a reconstruction process, finding Jesus afresh. They are losing their religion, but not losing Jesus.
Filled with stories of those who have walked the path of deconstruction without losing their faith, Invisible Jesus is a prophetic call to examine ourselves and discern if the faith we practice and the church we belong to is really representative of the Jesus we follow. Each chapter looks at a different topic and offers biblical reflections that call for us to not only better listen, but to change how we live out our faith as followers of Jesus today.

Burning Of Rosemont Abbey
$17.99Add to cart1956: In the quiet village of Wilbeth Green, the smoldering ruins of Rosemont Abbey set the residents’ tongues wagging, and everyone is quick to accuse troublemaker Paul Everly of being the arsonist.

Fueling her conviction is an inexplicable connection–she felt her twin’s death an hour before the abbey went up in flames.
Knowing no one will believe her, Louisa embarks on her own investigation, challenging the skepticism of her neighbors and the disdain of her aunt and uncle. Even Inspector Malcolm Sinclair, once Paul’s closest friend, is torn between his duty and a lingering loyalty to Paul and warns Louisa to abandon her pursuit. But Louisa is determined to solve a murder no one else believes was committed, even if it means unraveling secrets that could shake Wilbeth Green to its core.
Award-winning author Naomi Stephens presents a gripping whodunnit–reminiscent of the beloved Agatha Christie tales–of love and redemption set in a quaint British village.

As Ava works to process legal documents for the military, she crosses paths with Gunther Schneider, a German who is helping care for wounded soldiers. Ava questions why a man as gentle and kind as Gunther should be forced to live in the internment camp, and as they become friends, her sense of the injustice grows . . . as do her feelings for him. Faced with the possibility of losing Gunther, Ava must choose whether loving someone deemed the enemy is a risk worth taking, even if it means being ostracized by all those around her.
