Merge For Marriage
$16.99Add to cartMarriage can be surprisingly difficult when you’re first starting out.
Newly married couples face a tremendous challenge that is seldom talked about. In our social media-driven world, it’s easy to think that everyone else has it together in their marriages and wonder if maybe you made a mistake. The truth is, most couples don’t enter marriage with the communication or attachment skills needed to deal with the integration of two lives.
The Merge for Marriage helps answer the question newly married couples face: “Can we ever get on the same page?” Couples will learn:
*what it means to “merge” and the damaging effects of not dealing with differences early in a marriage;
*the seven predictable areas of conflict;
*a practical, powerful plan for dealing with differences with one’s partner; and
*how to help another couple walk through the merge process.
Full of practical stories, current research on connection and attachment, and enduring biblical principles, this book will help a couple learn how the different “merge points” in their marriage can actually strengthen their relationship so that they can enjoy a thriving marriage.

Ancient Ladder : A Journey To The Fullness Of Life With God
$17.99Add to cartFor all of us longing to find purpose beyond suffering and faith beyond despair, The Ancient Ladder explores the biblically based three-step spiritual passage that ancient mystics saw as the way to follow Jesus toward Christian maturity.
What causes faith to transform from an intellectual knowing about God to a passionate love story with God? Scott MacLellan asked this question as his daughter battled cancer and he looked for purpose in his family’s suffering. He couldn’t believe that God was uninterested, but he also rejected trite reassurances.
He finally found a satisfying answer in the three-step passage–based on the writings of Solomon–that Christian mystics identified as a path through pain to true spiritual devotion. In The Ancient Ladder, Scott helps us apply the wisdom of past centuries to our challenges today as we:
*Move through Proverbs (fearing the Lord) to Ecclesiastes (honoring the Lord) to Song of Solomon (loving the Lord).
*Journey from stale spirituality to a robust and meaningful faith that enriches our relationships, self-awareness, and enjoyment of God.
*See with fresh eyes the big picture of the Christian life.
Scott helps us understand Solomon’s writings, the spiritual fruit that can come from our suffering, and our seasons of unbelief so we can let go of the people we were and become who we were meant to be.

Envy : A Big Problem You Didn’t Know You Had
$14.99Add to cartIt’s often undetected–but if you knew the damage it was causing, you’d do everything possible to root it out!
Envy. It’s insidious. Pervasive. Corrosive. In the age of materialism and social media, it’s difficult not to feel the creep of this increasing and ever-present temptation. Pastor and teacher Mike Fabarez diagnoses the problem of this pervasive sin. He brings the reader to biblical stories with often-overlooked ties to envy that expose and demonstrate the seriousness and harm caused by our unexamined motives. When envy is allowed to reside unchecked in our hearts, there are internal, relational, and societal costs–Envy explores all of these.
But we are not left to despair. Instead, we are invited to know a kind and gracious Father who calls us to identify and assault this enemy. We can live with satisfaction and contentment. This book explores biblical ways to shore up our hearts and minds and close the gaps that leave us vulnerable to envy’s temptations. By understanding life in the body of Christ, readers learn to truly rejoice with those who rejoice. And we leave with a deeper capacity for grace and selfless love. With a pastoral heart, Fabarez reassures Christians of a divine hope and promise of an eternal kingdom where hearts are content, and joy is full.

Parent Differently : Raise Kids With Biblical Character That Changes Cultur
$14.99Add to cartMost parents misguidedly prioritize behavior. The why and how to instill character.
Behavior modification does not guarantee good character qualities. Character influences decisions. It’s evidenced in our speech, actions, and attitudes. It’s about who we are and what we do. The world competes for the hearts of our kids–and we see its negative impact in their pride, laziness, and entitlement. As Christians, however, we want to see the character of Jesus Christ in our children. Dads and moms, grandparents, and teachers all want to see their children grow in humility, gratitude, and respect–for others and themselves. We want our kids to be brave, compassionate, and joyful. We don’t want our kids to flounder through life. We want them to flourish and live into their God-given designs and callings. Dr. Kathy Koch helps us to that end by answering essential questions:
*What is character and why does it matter?
*Why is there a crisis of character?
*What are the challenges in developing character?
*How can we teach or improve character?Not only does character help us accomplish our goals, there are many other benefits of mature character: we will be blessed, stand out for Jesus, attract good friends, grow in wisdom, and live in freedom.
Koch provides an invaluable resource for shepherding our children in godly character.

How To Read The Bible
$18.99Add to cartAs fewer Christians read the Bible daily, fewer understand what a marvelous revelation it is from God to man. How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) offers believers and nonbelievers alike a new appreciation for the Bible, helping them to read it for understanding, not just as the storybook they remember from childhood.
There is no other book like the Bible. God used at least forty human writers over more than 1,600 years to compost the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments.They included kings and shepherds, a physician and a tax collector. They lived on three continents–Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Yet the Bible is a single Book with a single Author, focused on a single theme: Jesus the Messiah, our Redeemer. From beginning to end, the Bible tells the story of the Kingdom of God and its King. The Old Testament tells us He is coming. The New Testament announces that He has arrived.
The sixty-six books of the Bible do not tell sixty-six stories. Together they tell one story. It’s the story of humanity’s rebellion against God and God’s redemptive love for the human race. It’s the story of a Kingdom and a Covenant, of one Lord who saves completely and rules eternally.
The unity of the Bible confounds human wisdom. The unity of the Bible baffles its critics. The unity of the Bible challenges its enemies. There’s no book like this Book because there’s no author like its Author.

No matter your season of life as a woman, you long to be loved and appreciated. But perhaps most days you’re left feeling unseen, unheard, or unknown.

God wants us to pray as an integral part of our relationship with Him and as a vital aspect of our life of faith.

*Medicine, miracle, and mystery: how they interrelate
*Why and how we pray for healing
*The role of compassion in healing
*Christ’s forgiving and healing presence within us
*How to prepare yourself for prayer
*Eight ways healing prayer is misunderstoodHealing Prayer includes accounts of God’s power to heal today, and it provides guidance for how to organize a prayer team in your small group, church, or denomination.
Above all, this book shows that it is God who initiates healing prayer. Our part is to respond to His instructions and leading as we pray. All He asks is our openness to Him. Read this book and you, too, may be surprised by the power of Healing Prayer.

No Mires Atras – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartCon un grito de “Recuerden a la mujer de Lot”, la profesora de Biblia, conferenciante internacional, activista y autora de best sellers Christine Caine nos motiva a dejar de mirar atras, a desatascarnos y a seguir avanzando hacia las promesas y el proposito de Dios para nuestras vidas.
Hay momentos en la vida en los que miramos hacia atras y nos sentimos desesperados por hacer que el tiempo se detenga, sobre todo cuando nos sorprenden cambios inesperados. Pero no podemos detener el flujo de la vida, y no podemos detener el tiempo. Es mas, mirar atras no nos permite volver. La mayoria de las veces, solo hace que nos quedemos atascados. En un lugar, en un espacio, en un recuerdo, en una mentalidad, en un habito.
En Juan 17:32, Jesus entrega tres palabras “Recuerda a la mujer de Lot”, No sabemos su nombre ni su historia. Todo lo que sabemos es que cuando ella estaba huyendo de Sodoma y Gomorra, le dijeron que no mirara hacia atras, e hizo lo unico que se le pidio que no hiciera. Miro hacia atras y se convirtio en una estatua de sal y de las 170 mujeres mencionadas en las Escrituras, ella es la unica que Jesus nos dijo que recordaramos.
En No mires atras, Christine te motivara a:
*dejar de mirar hacia atras y empezar a mirar a Jesus
*invitar a Jesus a entrar para que te ayude a desatascarte de los muchos lugares en los que a menudo nos encontramos;
*avanzar desde donde te encuentras hacia todos los planes, propositos y promesas de Dios para tu vida; y
*mirar hacia el futuro y seguir avanzando hacia el con fe, especialmente cuando tu mundo ya no se parece en nada a lo que era antes.
Jesus nos invita a avanzar hacia la novedad de lo que esta por venir. Deja de descalificarte quedandote atorado en el pasado. Es hora de recordar a la mujer de Lot y no mirar atras, sino avanzar con valentia.
Don’t Look Back
With a rallying cry to “Remember Lot’s wife,” Bible teacher, international speaker, activist, and bestselling author Christine Caine motivates us to stop looking back, to get unstuck and to keep moving forward into God’s promises and purpose for our lives.
There are times in life when we look back and feel desperate to make time stand still, particularly when we get blindsided by unexpected changes. But we can’t stop the flow of life, and we can’t stop time. What’s more, looking back doesn’t enable us to go back. More often than not, it just makes us stuck. In a place. In a space. In a memory. In a mindset. In a habit.

Si miras a los hombres y mujeres en las Escrituras, los que vivieron y terminaron bien tienen una cosa en comun: estan marcados por el temor santo.

*La sabiduria, el entendimiento y el conocimiento

The Awe of God
In The Awe of God, John Bevere invites you to take a fresh look at what it means to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. This healthy, holy, and largely forgotten virtue is the uncommon path to a more fulfilled and fruitful life.
If you look at the men and women in Scripture, the ones who lived and finish well all have one thing in common: they are marked by holy fear. The fear of the Lord is not a topic you’ll hear much about these days. But if you want to build a faith that stands strong through troubled times, you cannot afford to ignore this book.

*Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge
*Foresight, clarity, and divine direction

*Building an eternal legacy
*Confidence, fearlessness, and security

1 Year Daily Acts Of Gratitude Devotional
$17.99Add to cartWhat might happen if you and your family found ways to be thankful every day?
Most of us admit to being overworked, hurried, anxious, lonely, and battered by uncertainty. We want to be thankful for all that we have, but the chaos of our lives holds us back. We know that experiencing gratitude can reduce our stress, lead to a happier home, and make us feel more optimistic about ourselves and the world around us. Yet our ability to be grateful often ebbs and flows. When life is good, it’s easy to feel grateful, but when life is full of hurts and challenges, gratitude takes a back seat.
But the hope of more–more peace, more Jesus, more appreciation for the people in our lives that often go overlooked–keeps us trying to find ways to be thankful. In The One Year Daily Acts of Gratitude Devotional, through relatable stories, encouraging Scripture, and reflection questions, we are invited to shift our focus and increase our gratitude.
Each day this year, find easy-to-do ideas for incorporating gratitude into our lives and uncover the good that God was doing all along.

In This Together

If you feel this way, you’re in good company and there is great news for you! Over the course of this 90 day devotional, you can discover what it really means to find unity in Christ, in the body of Christ, and for the sake of Christ.

The church at Ephesus was like many in the early days of Christianity: a melting pot of backgrounds, ethnicities, social classes, occupations, and ideas. Becoming a community was no easy feat. Even among Christians today, we may struggle to find “our people” with those with whom we can effortlessly find fellowship. Through a Scripture reading, a short devotion, prayers, and inspirational quotes you’ll find out exactly what kind of connection you were made for. You are headed for glory, and you can experience transcendent connections with others and with God on a regular basis.
“The togetherness we need most begins with our unity in Christ because that is where the power lies.”

Stevie and Sazan Hendrix show us that the good life we’re looking for won’t be found in our latest purchase, achievement, or dream vacation–it’s found by intentionally cultivating the simple, everyday moments that make up a real, good life.

Any of us can get stuck in our struggle. Jesus came to set us free and give us life–abundant life–but while we believe it for everyone else, it’s hard to accept his forgiveness and grace for ourselves. We continue in our old ways, living as one with no hope because we’re afraid of failing if we try to get better.
But what if brokenness–the array of behaviors and symptoms that show us that all is not as it should be with us–isn’t all there is? What if we can change?
As a licensed therapist and a man who’s dealt with his own problems–including childhood trauma, alcohol abuse, drug use, and bouts of depression–Jason VanRuler understands what you’re going through. In Get Past Your Past, he offers empathy, grace, and a hand to hold as he shares from his own places of brokenness and his professional knowledge to help you:
*Overcome the lie that you’re the only one who struggles with brokenness
*Look your brokenness square in the face and take small, doable steps to overcome it
*Find the courage to be vulnerable about your story–all of it–and embrace the freedom that comes from sharing it
*Learn to love and be loved in your most cherished relationships
*Cultivate authentic connection with those around you and with God
The life you dream of isn’t that far away. But you can’t stay where you are. It’s time to embark on your journey toward healing. Let Get Past Your Past be your guide along the way.

Brave Love : Making Space For You To Be You
$19.99Add to cartWomen today feel pressure to be the best wife, mom, and professional possible–often at the expense of their own identity. But what if you could experience deep peace–knowing you are loved right now, just as you are? In Brave Love, the founder of the multimillion-dollar company Lisa Leonard Designs inspires women to find themselves again amidst the noise and competing demands of real life.
This paperback edition includes a new foreword written by Stephen Leonard, exclusive discussion questions for personal reflection, and a Q&A between Lisa and Steve.
Brave Love is about what it means to be human, how it feels to be broken and afraid, and what happens when we dare to love deeply. Join Lisa on a journey where you will discover you are worthy and lovable just as you are. You don’t have to try harder or be better. You don’t have to prove yourself, and you don’t have to make others okay. In this freedom you will find more peace and more joy. Most importantly, you will learn that as you stop trying to be everything to everyone, you will love others better.
Lisa Leonard shares her story of finding truth and wholeness in the midst of life’s competing demands. When she said her marriage vows, she was determined to be the best wife she could be. When her first son was born with a severe disability, Lisa promised herself she would always be the mother he needed. When she began her jewelry business, Lisa committed to giving it her all.
Over the years, the exhaustion of trying to be the perfect wife, mother, and businesswoman took its toll. Lisa knew it wasn’t working. She wanted to change things, but how? Everyone depended on her. So she kept going, kept pushing, kept trying to prove she could do it all. Until one evening, in tears and desperation, Lisa realized that she could no longer be everything to everyone. Somewhere along the way, she had lost herself.
In Brave Love, Lisa shares her story of losing–and finding–her own voice in the clamor of family, career, and internal pressure to prove herself.

Who You Are
$22.99Add to cartIn our culture today, the preoccupation over self-identity–or who we are–is hard to ignore. But the pursuit of self-understanding has been a recurring theme throughout human history. How many times have you asked yourself, “Who am I?”
The desire to answer this question–whether it manifests in self-enhancement strategies or self-serving biases–is part of being human. Yet, through a Biblical lens, we know something has gone terribly wrong with our human nature. Brokenness happened when sin separated us from our Creator God, and the answers we seek are only obtainable when we reconnect with him.
Using the Gospel-Centered Integrative Framework for Therapy developed at Redeemer Counseling Services, Judy Cha explains:
*The human desire for an identity
*The role of shame and hurt in shaping who we think we are
*Self-redemption, and why it doesn’t work
*The Gospel as God’s rescue plan for a lost humanity
*How to ardently know your story, truly live in your community, and deeply connect with GodWho You Are shows us that the Gospel is the only thing that sets you free from the verdict of sin and justifies you as God’s prized possession. When you internalize the Gospel–this message of restorative love–you come to know who you are more and more every day.
This unique resource is ideal for those who feel stuck in a perpetual loop of “finding themselves” and for counselors or ministry leaders seeking to help others with gospel-centered healing.

Dont Follow Your Heart
$22.99Add to cartWhy chasing after expressive individualism, experiences, and desires always fails to deliver on its promise of happiness.
Today we are told to be true to ourselves, look within for answers, and follow our hearts. But when we put our own happiness first, we experience record-breaking levels of aimlessness, loneliness, depression, and anxiety. Self-centeredness always fails to deliver the fulfillment we’re seeking.
In Don’t Follow Your Heart, Thaddeus Williams debunks the “ten commandments of self-worship,” which include popular propaganda, like:
*#liveyourbestlife: Thou shalt always act in accord with your chief end–to glorify and enjoy yourself forever.
*#followyourheart: Thou shalt obey your emotions at all costs.
*#yolo: Thou shalt pursue the rush of boundary-free experience.
Williams builds a case that this type of self-worship is not authentic, satisfying, or edgy. Instead, its rehashing what is literally humanity’s oldest lie. He calls on a new generation of mavericks and renegades, heretics who refuse to march in unison with the self-obsessed herd. With a fascinating blend of theology, philosophy, science, psychology, and pop culture, Williams points us to a life beyond self-defeating dogmas to a more meaningful life centered on Someone infinitely more interesting, satisfying, and awesome than ourselves.
Featuring stories from Carl Trueman, Joni Eareckson Tada, J.P, Moreland, Josh McDowell, Alisa Childers, and more.

Longing To Belong
$19.99Add to cartGrowing up in the only Korean family in a Minnesota town, Michelle Lee-Barnewall has felt the pain of racial discrimination and the resulting identity confusion that follows. Through the telling of her personal story, she seeks to transcend the current divide between those who emphasize social justice concerns and those who believe these concerns compromise the core of the gospel.
A Longing to Belong integrates a biblical worldview and personal experience on the topic of race and race relations. Lee-Barnewall writes as both a New Testament scholar and an Asian American who has personally experienced what it means to be racially marginalized, seeking to filter those experiences through the lens of the New Testament and what it has to say to us today about our Christian calling and our identity in Christ as a member of his body.
A Longing to Belong spurs readers to consider what it means to live as racially distinctive people in a fallen world that abounds in misunderstanding and pain and is in desperate need of the gospel of grace, especially as manifested in the redeemed Christian community. This memoir extends the discussion beyond academic discussion of race relations and personal narratives by demonstrating how theology and experience are necessarily intertwined and mutually contribute to our understanding of race and our relationships with each other. Rather than arguing for one “side,” Lee-Barnewall shares examples rooted in her own experience in light of an overarching kingdom theology.
