Foundations : 12 Biblical Truths To Shape A Family
$22.99Families are shaped one day at a time through the Word of God
You want your children to become Christ followers, obedient to His commands, and fruitful in their faith, but where do you begin? Though there isn’t a formula or prescription for raising godly kids, the things you desire for your family begin with heeding God’s instructions to remember and declare His faithful works to the next generation.
Bestselling author and artist Ruth Chou Simons, along with her husband, Troy, are gratefully raising six boys on a firm foundation of God’s truth by preaching truth to themselves and their family daily. In this book, they invite you to join them in the holy work of training children to know and love God for a lifetime.
Foundations will help you direct your family one day at a time, as you explore twelve key truths that will help connect your children’s hearts to the heart of God. A simple, chapter-a-day format offers daily Scripture, thoughts, mediations, and discussions designed to equip you to guide your children with godly instruction.
Parents don’t just teach God’s truths because their children need to hear them, but because we need to hear them too. As you instruct your children, your own heart will also be shaped and formed by the truths of God’s Word–the only thing that can change someone from the inside out.

Find More Money
$17.99What do you do when cutting your budget no longer cuts it?
From pastors in the pulpit to people in the pews, many people have cut and cut, but still find themselves struggling to pay the bills. Their full-time job is giving them barely enough to get by; how could they even begin to think about eliminating debt, saving, and living generously?
Financial expert and author Art Rainer ( The Money Challenge; The Marriage Challenge) helps answer these questions in Find More Money by pointing readers to the reality of the gig economy. When a full-time job doesn’t provide what you need, finding a “gig” may be the answer to your problems.
Find More Money is not just about financial stewardship, but about stewarding your talents, time, and abilities–not so you can get rich, but so you can live generously on mission for the kingdom.

Handle With Care
$19.99Our culture is in a time when reports of inappropriate touch are commonplace. In the church, we’re not doing much better. On one hand, we give side hugs or instate six-inch rules. On the other, we find out– almost daily–about sexual misconduct, affairs, and abuse inflicted within our own walls.
Singles are staying single longer, dating is wrought with angst over purity, and marriages struggle to not interpret all forms of touch as sexual. We can’t even talk about touching our own bodies without the underlying assumption that it must be sexual. There is simply no place in our culture–and in the church–where touch doesn’t seem threatened or threatening.
In the laws within the Old Testament, there is a form of one statement made 38 times: “Do not touch.” Everything seems off-limits to the people of God. But a curious thing happens in the New Testament when Jesus comes into his ministry: He touches. Jesus touches the sick and the outcasts, the bleeding and the unclean.
What could it mean for families, singles, marriages, churches, communities, and the world to have healthy, pure, faithful, ministering touch? Somewhere in the mess of our assumptions and fears about touch, there is something beautiful and good and God-given. As Jesus can show us, there is ministry in touching.

*You are what you know
*You are what you own
*You are who you raise
*You are your pastIn You Are What You Do, author and pastor Daniel Im considers these seven lies and the context that causes them to flourish. Through personable stories, research, and pastoral insight, Daniel will show you how to recognize these everyday lies in your life, so that you can discover the truth on the other side.

Follower : Becoming More Than Just A Fan Of Jesus
$12.99Jesus calls us not to cheer for him but to chase after him.
Based on his bestseller Not a Fan, author and pastor Kyle Idleman reveals that Jesus calls us not to cheer for him but to chase after him. It is becoming a completely committed follower of Jesus.
With a frankness that many readers are not likely to hear in church or Sunday school class, Kyle offers an invitation to take an honest look at one’s relationship with Jesus. His call to follow may seem radical. It is more about repentance than forgiveness, more about surrender than salvation, more about brokenness than happiness, and more about death than about life. It’s not a comfortable and reassuring path. It’s certainly not about just being a fan of Jesus, sitting on the sidelines cheering for his cause. It’s about being a true follower where a person lives into their new identity in Christ.

Gospel According To Satan
$17.99From a “unique and distinctive” (Kyle Idleman) writer who “make[s] us appreciate the greatness and grandeur of the gospel” (J. I. Packer) comes a warning about how the “father of lies” attempts to mislead us, packaging destructive ideas in the guise of spiritual truth.
Not every lie sounds untrue. Some just sound right. And some are repeated so often that they virtually become “common knowledge.” This is what makes lies about God so dangerous. So we have to ask, what might God’s enemy want us to believe to lead us astray? And would we even see it happening?
Award-winning writer and pastor Jared C. Wilson brings us this compelling and enlightening exploration of the popular and oftentimes pleasing ways spiritual darkness masquerades as light. With sharp insight, warm humor, and a shepherd’s heart, Jared Wilson examines eight lines popular with too many Christians–eight lies the enemy wants us to believe–and provides eight lines of counterattack to help us regain our footing. Wilson names the lies– including “God Just Wants You to Be Happy,” “You Only Live Once,” and “Let Go and Let God,”–and then reveals why they appeal to us, shows how they harm us, and provides ways to counteract them. We can renounce Satan’s counterfeit gospel, but first we must see it for what it is. Jared Wilson shows us how.

Reimagine Retirement : Planning And Living For The Glory Of God
$16.99Americans are crazy about retirement.
Everywhere we look there are books, articles, and websites dedicated to the subject–most of which are about how to get there fast, and how to enjoy it when you’re there.

In the process, he will challenge our typical view of retirement as the ultimate reward for a life of hard work by asking key questions:
*What does the Bible have to say, if anything, about retirement?
*What would a God-honoring and glorifying retirement look like?
*If retirement is probable for most of us, how should we plan for it as wise stewards of the resources God has entrusted to our care?In Reimagine Retirement, Chris answers these and other questions to help us construct a vision of retirement that reflects the values, priorities, and purposes that are most important to God.

Do you long to experience the joy and peace only found in knowing and loving our Lord?

Relentless : The Unshakeable Presence Of A God Who Never Leaves
$17.99With her signature storytelling and biblical insight, Michele Cushatt’s third book, Relentless, is a message born of deep personal struggle and the transformational discovery that God is indeed with us.
How do you hold onto faith when faith itself seems lost? Whether in struggle, illness, death, or failure, the presence of pain causes us to question the presence of God. We pray and watch the sky, crossing our spiritual fingers for hardcore proof of God’s nearness. And in the silence, we sense something more sinister: perceived abandonment.
But what if we could collect evidence that God hasn’t left us? What if we could be absolutely certain of God’s presence and affection, strengthening our faith against any assault?
Woven throughout Scripture sits a single, extraordinary theme: God is with us. Ours is a God who speaks through burning bushes and leads through pillars of fire, who responds to a broken world by giving himself.
Like the Old Testament story of Joshua’s altar of twelve stones, Relentless delivers twelve key biblical stories that demonstrate God’s unfailing presence. Each chapter offers an invitation to identify a “stone” in your own life as tangible evidence of God’s nearness. With the turn of the last page, you will have discovered twelve markers of your own, an altar of memory to carry you through questions and losses, even ones yet to come.
For the truth-seekers, those drowning in impossible questions, and those who find themselves swallowed up by the dark, Relentless is an invitation to search for divine presence in our everyday stories. With Michele Cushatt’s engaging narrative style, this transformational journey provides biblical authority and modern story to illuminate the historical proof and reassurance that God, indeed, is with us.

After years of believing she was “born this way,” Keri hit a wall when faced with the decision to marry a woman.

It’s a story about experiencing the greatest love of all – the love that knows no bounds.Through heartfelt stories that will make you laugh and cry in one breath, Keri Cardinale shares her personal journey of how she came to identify herself as a homosexual, sensed a hint of doubt that life could be different, and eventually made the decision to trust God enough to show her who He created her to be.

Insanity Of Sacrifice
$19.99Bestselling author Nik Ripken (The Insanity of God; The Insanity of Obedience) leads readers through ninety days of meditating on the central place sacrifice holds in Christianity, both in God’s actions and in our response.
God’s ways are unusual. They are unexpected. Many of us know that and have experienced it. We certainly have read about it in the Bible. Still, we are often startled when we experience God’s unusual ways firsthand. The methods God uses to accomplish His purposes are often difficult for us to understand.
Nowhere do we see that more clearly than in the role sacrifice plays in the activity of God.
In this ninety-day devotional, Nik Ripken leads readers to consider the centrality of sacrifice in God’s plan. We see this supremely in the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross for the sins of the world. But readers will also come to see the centrality of sacrifice in their response to the gospel.Add to cart3 in stock

Power Of Consecration
$14.99You have been set apart for such a time as this.
In these last days, God is bringing forth His people to fulfill major Kingdom assignments in every sphere of influence. From business leaders to church planters, from Hollywood entertainers to educators, from the pulpit to the political arena, God is raising up pioneers who are called and anointed to bring supernatural transformation.
As God’s people give themselves completely to Him and His Kingdom purpose, they will become catalysts for bringing the awakening and reformation that has been prophesied.
Author, prophet, and church planter, Jeremiah Johnson, is convinced: this is more than a book or a message; this is a prophetic mandate the Lord is entrusting to a generation.
Beyond building a church, school, and prophetic ministry, there is a grace on his life to help believers partner with God’s process in order to see assignments fulfilled.
In The Power of Consecration, Jeremiah helps you to…
*Live the kind of lifestyle that can carry Kingdom power and influence.
*Cultivate a “secret place” lifestyle that attracts the true rewards and riches of Heaven.
*Unlock a new realm of kingdom demonstration that we have not yet seen before in the earth.Receive this urgent prophetic word: the lack of demonstration in the church is directly connected to the lack of consecration.
Could it be that the Holy Spirit is daring those who are hungry to come seek Him, to those who are willing to pay a price, that if we will consecrate ourselves fully, He will manifest His kingdom fully in the earth.

Promise Is His Presence
$14.99What if you didn’t have to go looking for God’s presence? What if you could enjoy it all the time?
Glenna Marshall’s awakening to God’s presence began in the depths of winter. Rereading her journal, she realized that for six months she’d been cataloging all the ways God had abandoned her. What if that . . . wasn’t true? Interweaving her own story of faith and doubt amid suffering, Glenna traces the theme of God’s presence from Genesis to Revelation and shows what it means for us in our own daily joys and struggles.
God’s presence among his people set him apart from the pagan gods of ancient times. His presence on earth as God Incarnate split history in two. And today his presence is one of the most significant means of his goodness to us.
