Go Hard Into The Wind And Waves
$21.86Go Hard into the Wind and Waves is a true story. The events that led to a tragedy at sea for the outrigger canoe team were to Tino Rico the final crucible in a lifetime of wrong decisions that took him into drugs, gang activity, and prison before he surrendered his life to Jesus. This ultimate trial came suddenly on January 3, 1999. In fifty-degree water, six men clung to the sunken outrigger canoe for five hours, while high winds and waves beat them to exhaustion in the Channel Island area of the Pacific Ocean. Tino’s story was documented on the Discovery TV special on hypothermia titled Survival. Two men died in this tragedy at sea. This story is full of courage and hope in a mighty God that proved no matter how dark the circumstances, he will see you through. “An amazing story of faith and courage, thought provoking.” Pastor Tom Riggs, Friend and Mentor “What an incredible testimony of the process of transformation.” Dr. Leah Coulter, Sr. Assoc. Pastor, Channel Island Vineyard Church, Oxnard.

Cash : The Autobiography
$16.99He was the “Man in Black,” a country music legend, and the quintessential American troubadour. He was an icon of rugged individualism who had been to hell and back, telling the tale as never before. In his unforgettable autobiography, Johnny Cash tells the truth about the highs and lows, the struggles and hard-won triumphs, and the people who shaped him.
In his own words, Cash set the record straight — and dispelled a few myths — as he looked unsparingly at his remarkable life: from the joys of his boyhood in Dyess, Arkansas to superstardom in Nashville, Tennessee, the road of Cash’s life has been anything but smooth. Cash writes of the thrill of playing with Elvis, the comfort of praying with Billy Graham; of his battles with addiction and of the devotion of his wife, June; of his gratitude for life, and of his thoughts on what the afterlife may bring. Here, too, are the friends of a lifetime, including Willie Nelson, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, and Kris Kristofferson. As powerful and memorable as one of his classic songs, Cash is filled with the candor, wit, and wisdom of a man who truly “walked the line.”

Armies Of The Lamb
$22.99Andrew Fuller was a man whose active life was devoted to the work of God. His paramount desire was to be true to the Scriptures.

Chapter One : A Modern Day Testimony
$21.23In a world full of crime, tragedy, and death, we do not hear enough of the positive events. The world seems to be most interested in who died, who slept with whom, who killed whom, and so on. Tragedy is the top story of every news program and the headline of every newspaper. Where is the good news? We do not hear about what God is doing. We all have stories to tell. Just think if no one had written down the accounts that we now read in the Bible, or if historians had not recorded the events from which we get our history books. No one would know that God exists today, and our past would be lost. This book is an account of the first ten years of my walk with the Lord. My desire is that this book will glorify God, and encourage you in the challenges you face. May it inspire you to write your own story.

For My Good But For His Glory
$33.11If I Knew Back Then What I Know Now… I grew up sheltered in a large family,wanting to be “free” and on my own, and looking for love and acceptance. This led to marrying the wrong person who gave me the attention I longed for, but after eleven years and two babies I was divorced. I was a single woman in the vicious cycle of dating men out of the will of God. I was then a married woman, a divorced woman, and a single parent, and suffered the trauma of the death of my firstborn. In spite of all that I’ve gone through, everything was for my good and for God’s glory, because nothing with him goes to waste. Everything you’ve ever gone through, no matter how bad or good, is not in vain, because God has a plan. He said …Gather up now the fragments (the broken pieces that are left over), so that nothing may be lost and wasted. (JOHN 6:12 AMP)

God I Love
$24.99“The God I Love is the book that captures my heart and thoughts in the events, dialogues, memories, images, and scenes of my life_my walk with God.”_Joni Eareckson Tada Joni’s name is synonymous around the world with the words “loving God.” She has lived out these words since the diving accident thirty-six years ago that left her paralyzed from the shoulders down. Now in The God I Love she looks back on the whole of her life through eyes that can see how that accident actually moved her in a new direction, saving her from another tragedy of her own making. This story-driven narrative captures the events and images of Joni’s remarkable life as she describes her life in six themes. She begins with her life as an ordinary girl who is blessed by an extraordinary God_but not without tragic turns. Then she ponders the question, would she have been an artist if she had not broken her neck? She recognizes that through prayer she enters into God’s holy presence and finds that he answers her prayers in full measure. She acknowledges that it is only through the kindness of friends that she has bathed or eaten or done the countless simple tasks that make up everyday life. Because of her unusual situation, her wheelchair has rolled onto platforms around the world where millions of people have heard her speak about her Savior. Through tragedy Joni has come to know God, the living, surprising, wonderful Lord of all. A note from Joni_ The God I Love is a memory still unfolding of the journey that keeps taking me deeper into the heart of my Savior. It’s my prayer that this story, which spans over fifty years, will resonate with each person who takes time to pick up the book…it’s my prayer that The God I Love will serve as a roadmap, a guide, a signpost to light the journey of each reader, helping them to see their sweet, soft desperation of Jesus, too.

Searching For God In Godforsaken Times And Places
$19.50152 pages
Additional Info
This heartfelt book recounts the author’s personal struggles with doubt, uncertainty, and skepticism in the face of three consequential life experiences the death of his parents, his life as a black American, and his lifelong preoccupation with the Nazi Holocaust.For Hubert Locke, as for many others who share his circumstances or sensitivities, these experiences have presented a serious challenge to conventional Christian teaching. They have forced him to reexamine Scripture, where he has ultimately and beneficially discovered a remarkable congeniality on the part of biblical writers with doubters and skeptics.
“Doubt is not an act of unbelief,” Locke writes. “In fact and ironically, doubt may be a supreme act of faith and devotion. If this is too much to claim, at least doubt and skepticism are stances that Scripture understands and for which the Bible has the utmost sympathy.”
“Searching for God in Godforsaken Times and Places” is a heart-cry by one person whose honest journey through life has earned him a special kind of spiritual peace, a person who has profound insights to offer others seeking to live Christianly in a confusing, contradictory world. Penetrating and sensitive, questioning and honest, this book is for believers and seekers alike who are looking for a meaningful, real discussion of life’s duplicity.

Footprints In My Rearview Mirror
$21.86People leave footprints that run through other lives. Sometimes they gradually increase to make a path, which becomes a trail, then a rutted road, a highway, a freeway, and on and on into one’s fading memories. Some of them are but little puffs in the dust or snow, while others are huge craters and ruts in the mud that leave big scars or become great indelible lessons about life as one passes through the world system toward eternity. The people and events mentioned in this book are real and are recorded as accurately as possible. So as not to misrepresent anyone or anything, many unclear parts have been omitted. The Japanese American WWII experience had a heavy impact on the circumstances that shaped the sociological, psychological, and spiritual post-war life of Mr. Oiye. This book is written to illustrate how God chose the author to become a believer and follower of Jesus Christ as his Savior and Lord from the beginning, and how He guarantees that it will not only happen, but He will continue to provide the means to match the circumstance. “Just getting old is a sterile way of life, but growing old gracefully is a God-given gift.”

Journey
$29.98Do you desire freedom from religious bondage? Are you frustrated with rules? The Journey is a true story that chronicles an extraordinary search for the existence of God. The story begins with her ancestors from whom she has received blessings and cursings. She discovers that dark, unseen forces have her under surveillance, watching for an opportune time to bring her into temptation and deception. Her carnal nature falls prey to the influence of ungodly temptations, and she is lured into the world of fleeting pleasure and sin. Seeking relief from her dilemma catapults her into a smorgasbord of erroneous religious groups. As she adheres to the rules and rituals of religion, she realizes that keeping rules does not tame the carnal beast within. She exchanges her life of sin for one of self-righteousness, false humility, and counterfeit Christianity. Family casualties become a byproduct of her journey, and they are left behind in the tumultuous aftermath. Who can rescue her? Only One-Jesus Christ! Discovering the truth, her journey takes a sharp turn. She realizes she has not been following God’s true path, but man’s interpretation of it. She undergoes spiritual surgery that removes the false belief systems she had embraced, and she finds the true freedom that Christ proclaimed: “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.”

Dinahs Story : The Struggles And Triumphs Of Parenting A Child With Prader
$21.86Dinah’s Story documents the life journey of a baby born with Prader-Willi Syndrome, a birth defect not yet identified at the time of her birth. While Dinah’s Story focuses on the unique-and sometimes bizarre-characteristics of PWS, it would benefit any parent, extended family member, or educator who lives with and loves a child or adult with special needs. The combination of faith (Loretta’s faith in God), works (her pragmatic and stubborn approach to finding solutions), and the love that drives them both creates a special environment where miracles happen. Dinah’s Story is one of family and faith, hope and despair, tragedies and triumphs. It’s the story of a baby who was not supposed to survive, but who, at age 47, celebrates life through her love of family and friends, her gift of painting, and her trust in God. You will laugh with the author, cry with her, and share the jubilation that comes with perseverance. And through the eyes of a mother, you will get a glimpse of how our Heavenly Father views His precious creation-Dinah. All proceeds from the sale of Dinah’s Story go to the Dinah Stafford Scholarship Fund at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona.

William Bridge : The Puritan Of The Congretational Way
$34.36The quest for a biography of William Bridge began after this author purchased the first two volumes of The Works of William Bridge, printed in 1649 in London. These were printed twenty-one years before the death of this great Congregational Puritan preacher. Upon beginning the search for biographical material, a startling discovery was made. Only a few pages were in any one place on the life of this illustrious stalwart of Christ. Thus the search began in an attempt to fill in as many gaps as could be supplied from the meager sources. There should be no condemnation of a man who faithfully and biblically followed the Lord. “The circumstances of the times in which he lived” were a part of the world in which God had placed William Bridge. He occupied a prominent place in the controversies of the day, which were disruptive to the status quo of the established church and the state. However, such a brave man should not be left buried in obscurity. John Owen, the great Puritan theologian, highly respected Bridge. They worked together on various projects. It is the hope of this author that some progress has been made in giving to the public a larger picture of William Bridge.

Called Chosen And Faithful
$20.61Out of her own experiences as the wife of a pastor, Betty Norcross writes this book to encourage others in ministry. However, this book’s relevance doesn’t stop with the clergy and their families. It can have an impact on anyone who loves the Lord and has a desire to work for Him.

Crises occurred so regularly that she began to consider them a vocational hazard in the work of the Church. She takes you through some of her crises, a few of them of earth-shattering proportions, and others not much more than mild tremors. But through it all, Betty relates the faithfulness of the One who called her to the work. Her habit of talking to the Lord about everything on a regular basis proved to be the source of strength she needed for the task. This book will encourage you to be consistent in your daily devotional time.

Dare To Believe
$16.86Here is a story of one man’s battle with Parkinson’s Disease, and his victory over that pain. In this goal, Mark Sharp has been an inspiration as an author. He relays the immense struggles and life changes that took place for him and his family, and in the end we feel joy at his prognosis.
Here too, is a story of a Christian sharing his view of the gospel. If you are looking for guidance in this area, this is the book for you. I am certain that it will inspire many. However, if you are not interested in Mark’s view of the power of God and the Christian viewpoint, I suggest that this is not a book for you. It could be argued that the book is pure propaganda, but since it portrays the events of this man’s life, it is also a miraculous story.
The book is short but concise and to the point. The story is well written and the points of argument are well documented and introduced. While I do not agree with most of the content, the purpose of the author is fulfilled and I applaud him.
The basic idea of the book is comparing life with a game. There are rules to follow if you want to win and Mark spells out many of them and leads the reader to discover the rest on their own journey, and find their own coach waiting for them on the field. While my own coaches told me that winning is not important – it is how you play the game that counts, Mark’s coach told him that winning is the most important, and that is the fun of the game. Different philosophies and different outlooks on life, lead to different appreciations for this title. Take it as you will. Either way, the joyous result of victory over a disease is a reason worth reading this one.
