Fully Alive : Tending To The Soul In Turbulent Times
$24.99
In a world experiencing turbulent change, we need people who are resilient, kind, open, generous, and brave. How do we become those people?
In Fully Alive, scholar and popular podcaster Elizabeth Oldfield uses the seven deadly sins as a framework to explore questions such as:
– How can I move from sloth to attention in order to make the most of my short life and stop getting distracted by trivialities?
– Is it possible to move from wrath to peacemaking? How do I become a depolarizing person in an age of outrage, tribalism, and division?
– What might it look like to move from gluttony to awe, finding transcendence in expansive, life-giving ways–not in the bottom of a tub of ice cream?
– How can I move from pride to connection, overcoming the disconnection that keeps me from intimacy, community, and ultimately from the divine?
Oldfield shows why, in a world heavy on judgment, she still finds the concept of sin liberating–and how, to her surprise, she keeps finding in her Christian faith ways to feel fully alive. Deeply serious yet amusingly relatable, this book helps us develop spiritual strength for when things fall apart.

Red Sea Rules
$14.99Add to cartJust as Moses and the Israelites found themselves caught between “the devil and the deep Red Sea,” so are we sometimes overwhelmed by life’s problems. But God delivered the Israelites, and He will deliver us too. The Red Sea Rules reveals, even in the midst of seemingly impossible situations, God’s promise to make a way for us. His loving guidance will protect us through danger, illness, marital strife, financial problems–whatever challenges Satan places in our path. Using the Israelites’ story as an example, Robert Morgan offers ten sound strategies for moving from fear to faith. Among them:
Realize that God means for you to be where you are. Acknowledge your enemy, but keep your eyes on the Lord. Pray. Life is hard. It is certain that we will face difficulties, and that God will allow them, as He allowed the Israelites to become trapped between Pharaoh’s rushing armies and the uncrossable Red Sea. But just as certain is the fact that the same God who led us in will lead us out. As The Red Sea Rules makes clear, He is in control. Updated edition with new study questions accompanying each chapter. -
