Happy Lies : How A Movement You Probably Never Heard Of Shaped Our Self-Obs
$19.99
In this groundbreaking book, popular apologist Melissa Dougherty helps us understand how our society got to be so toxically subjective, why endless positivity is inherently destructive, and how we can live with faithful truth and genuine love in these self-obsessed times.
Have you ever wondered how we ended up in a world where personal feelings could become the authority for reality? Or why so many of us are on a relentless pursuit for happiness yet somehow feel more exhausted and sadder than ever? You’re not alone.
Melissa deftly traces the roots of today’s social chaos back to a little-known (but very influential) 1800s philosophy known as New Thought. A former follower of its teachings, Melissa provides clarity and compassion mixed with a dash of loving snark as she exposes New Thought’s deceptions and its many concerning tendrils within the church and our “self-help” culture.
You’ll be shocked, grieved, and encouraged as you learn:
*How you can experience true freedom, hope, and peace instead of the world’s counterfeits
*How an anti-God ideology so easily hijacked Christian-sounding ideas
*Why thinking positively is entirely different from the unbiblical and burdensome “positive thought” movement
*Why fake “authenticity” short-circuits real redemption
*How understanding the New Thought mindset can help us share our faith more effectively
Uncover a dangerous ideology that nearly everyone has met, yet few of us can name, in order to better understand our culture and joyfully live faithful to the gospel that is so much better than our world’s Happy Lies.

Case For Christ (Revised)
$19.99Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.
Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it’s not fiction. It’s a riveting quest for the truth about history’s most compelling figure.
The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book’s impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.

30 Days Of Praying The Psalms
$17.99Walk in the footsteps of a king!
King David is regarded as one of the Bible’s greatest heroes for one reason: he was a sold-out worshipper. Through all of his success, failures, and pain, David worshipped God with his whole heart. The book of Psalms provides a record of his songs to God-a window into his prayers as he wrestled through every circumstance across the full spectrum of human emotion.
David’s example is an important model for modern-day Christians, and his words in the Psalms provide powerful language we can use in own journey.
Psalmist and worship leader, Julie Meyer, has spent decades helping everyday believers encounter God through Davidic worship. By declaring and singing the Psalms, Julie has discovered that she is able to access that same open Heaven as David-a spiritual dimension where we are confident that God hears us (even when Heaven seems silent), we know that He’s with us (even when He feels distant), and that – whether we feel it or not – we can trust that the giant-slaying God of David is fighting on our behalf!
In 30 Days in the Psalms, Julie takes you on a prayer journey through 30 of David’s Psalms, equipping you with:
*Templates for powerful breakthrough prayers.
*Guidance for singing and declaring your way into an awareness of God’s Presence.
*Simple keys to lay hold of God’s promises for healing.
*Easy and comfortable language you can use when talking with God.
*The ability to make God your refuge through every storm.Like King David, Julie Meyer has seen every type of need answered by singing and declaring God’s faithfulness through the Psalms. Now, discover how you can see the same in your life!
