7th Grade : A 30 Day Devotional
$6.99
Remember being in seventh grade? It’s a year filled with transformation and transition: The world literally feels like it’s increasing in size, school starts to get tougher, bodies are going through all kinds of crazy changes, and students find that they have to do a lot of focusing to stay on track with schoolwork and life. And faith begins to take on new dimensions and new meaning, too. That’s why this 30-day devotional will guide young teenagers through some of the biggest changes and challenges of this year, including handling doubt and questions, using a wise media filter, dealing with all the physical changes of early adolescence, and making choices that will build their faith. For some teenagers, this is the beginning of junior high and their first year after elementary school-while others are right in the heart of their middle school experience. Whatever their journey, 7th Grade: Growing Your Faith will engage students with its creative and age-targeted readings, questions, and prompts to action. The book also features interactive elements to talk through pieces of this with friends, family, youth leaders and other adults.

Surprised By Hope
$15.99For years Christians have been asking, “If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?” It turns out Christians have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven.
One of today’s premier Bible scholars and award-winning author N.T. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian’s future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright shows that Christianity’s most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection. First, he provides a magisterial defense of a literal resurrection of Jesus himself. This became the cornerstone for the Christian community’s hope in the bodily resurrection of all people at the end of the age. Next Wright explores our expectation of “new heavens and new earth,” showing what happens to the dead until then and what will happen with the “second coming” of Jesus. For many, including many Christians, all this will come as a great surprise.
Wright convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if God intends to renew the whole creation – and if this has already begun in Jesus’s resurrection – the church cannot stop at “saving souls” but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for God’s kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the present life.
Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and excite all who are interested in the meaning of life, not only after death but, before it.
