Guilty : Keeping Gods Covenant Of Love With Israel
$21.86“Wow! What an incredible story! I knew Jim and Patty loved Israel, but this book is a call-a commitment that transcends hardship, heartache, and history. It’s a call, but more. It’s a clarion call for all of us who love America and Israel to stand up for this vital and strategic relationship.” The Honorable Jack and Joanne Kemp “Guilty! is a courageous book written by a courageous couple. A unique perspective recommended for Jews and Christians alike. A must read!” Senator Jim and Mary Bunning “Guilty! is a wonderful book, the story of a remarkable couple who love each other, love Jesus, and love Israel. Readers will treasure this little volume for its wisdom, historical insights, and humor. It’s one of the most interesting and informative books I’ve read.” Senator Bill and Ellen Armstrong “I echo the remarks in the Summary of your book, ‘The incredible life pilgrimage of Jim and Patty Hutchens gives witness to God’s grace to heal, restore, and re-commission to His service with renewed zeal.’ Indeed. But it also gives witness to man’s ability to respond to God’s healing and restoration.And in the case of the Hutchens, it is a response of obedience, humility, mission, and love.” Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein

Learn Or Burn
$16.86My name is William Shlonsky, a Jew who believed God (the Lord) could not exist. At the age of 56 years, I started my search for God. Finally, at the age of 58, I met a man who truly showed and proved to me that Jesus was who he claimed to be. This man, who was a gentile, asked if I was a Jew. I said yes! He told me to look at these scriptures: Isaiah 40:3, Malachi 3: 1, and John 1:23. They all struck me in my heart. At that point, the deep spirit of sleep slid off my eyes, fell from my ears, and changed my heart to flesh! At this point, I became a born again believer. As I learned, we all have free will to accept God or reject him. It was a sad day when I said to myself, “Woe to those who I knew but did not believe.” Some I cared for, but I have not seen them in a long while. Through the scriptures, the Lord revealed how we lock the doors to our homes from wicked men, but we don’t even think of the evil spirits who are constantly seeking access to us. Against their attacks, in our own strength, we have no method of defense. And if we don’t come to the knowledge of God (Jesus), these evil, demonic spirits can distract our minds, torment our bodies, destroy our possessions, and tear our lives apart. These unclean spirits long for our misery and destruction. If we don’t accept God’s gift for our lives, his grace will eventually turn to wrath and we will be given up to our own lusts of the flesh and to the control of these evil spirits. This is why and how the Lord led me to write this book, Learn or Burn for in God’s Eye “Brain Rape” Is No Excuse.

Speeding Beyond The Limit
$20.61What does the Bible really teach about how Christian believers are to behave on the earth? SPEEDING BEYOND THE LIMIT? by John L. Langston III John Langston III searches the Scriptures to find an answer to the question, “How should we behave before a holy God?” This study reveals many convicting and sobering glimpses of righteous behavior that brings glory to a righteous God. Included in the author’s expository look at righteous behavior are some rarely recognized, perhaps never thought about aspects of what really pleases God. Were it not for the Bible, we would have no idea what behavior is really acceptable or right in the sight of God. The knowledge of how to respond to God in a worshipful and pleasing way should be the desire of every believer. The question is, are we guilty of speeding beyond the boundaries of what God has chosen to please Him concerning the believer’s earthly behavior? God forbid that anyone who claims to be redeemed by salvation in Christ would not listen to God’s instructions in the Bible, which is meant to guide our daily conduct.

When Now Becomes Too Late
$15.61When Now Becomes Too Late focuses on the very moment of imminent Rapture. That ‘twinkling of an eye’ which shall instantaneously transport Christians from temporal to eternal life. Aimed to encourage believers of the event, the work also intends to goad skeptics in and out of the Body of Messiah to renew a fresh consideration of God’s impending Triumph while ‘now’ is yet here.
Intertwining realities personalize the perspective of the miracle that shall touch every life on planet earth spontaneously. Life’s simplest moments glow with eternal presence as earth’s final stage unfolds as the backdrop.
What then the response of those who witness this event? They shall have embarked on the world’s final days. Once more to consider, has now become too late?
The time it takes to read this passage is easily more than a million moments longer than that sparkling dot of time described herein. Then life for all of remaining humanity will gain the final edge.
On God’s prophetic calendar this is the next major prophecy to be.

Will Thou Be Made Whole

If He loved us enough to die for us, then why would He not also want us to be happy and enjoy life? We are His precious children, and He wants each of us to live a full life and enjoy it in the process.We start by learning what the Word of God tells us and what the promises are for His children and how to apply them.

Jesus In The Margins
$13.99Jesus is our ultimate model for finding identity, acceptance, and legitimacy from the Father. As we pull back the curtain on His life, we discover that Jesus knows what it’s like to be marginalized. He understands how it feels to have society shove you to the side, to not really be accepted, and in the end to be totally rejected. He can identify with life in the margins because when God came to earth in the person of Jesus Christ, He landed in the margins. On purpose. And He chose to land there because it’s in the margins that broken lives get mended, prisoners are set free, and the poor hear the Good News.

In God on Paper you’ll share in a conversation that takes a new look at Scripture, a dialogue that entertains doubts and questions about the value-and the validity-of the Bible. And you’ll encounter an amazing love story of divine proportions

Confessions Of A Prayer Wimp
$10.99For a woman who confesses to being a shallow thinker and says she prefers to take life one sunrise at a time, Pierce offers some rich life wisdom as she discusses the disciplines of faith and practical prayer. Pierce (humor columnist for Focus on the Family’s LifeWise magazine and author of When Did I Stop Being Barbie and Become Mrs. Potato Head?) tenders comical asides to everyday hassles, irritations and frustrations while simultaneously nudging readers to give thanks for these annoying episodes as they frequently become the purveyors of peace, hope and joy. With a chuckle on every page, readers will discover fresh twists to old struggles on body image, money issues, child-rearing and marriage. Pierce brings humor to the forefront as she details her failures in the prayer department, calling herself a prayer worrier whose only recourse to total meltdown is to recognize her utter dependence upon God. Throughout this three-part comedy act, spiritual lessons can be gleaned from such nondescript objects as hula hoops, Pine-Sol and metal bras. Pierce’s zany take on pairing prayer with life has the potential to do what few Christian books ever manage: to appeal to Christians and those outside the faith in equal measure.

Soul Searching : The Religious And Spiritual Lives Of American Teenagers
$140.00Winner of the 2006 Christianity Today Book Award for Christianity and Culture Description
In most discussions and analyses of American teenage life, one major topic is curiously overlooked–religion. Yet most American teens say that religious faith is important in their lives. What is going on in the religious and spiritual lives of American teenagers? What do they actually believe? What religious practices do they engage in? Do they expect to remain loyal to the faith of their parents? Or are they abandoning traditional religious institutions in search of a new, more “authentic” spirituality?
Answering these and many other questions, Soul Searching tells the definitive story of the religious and spiritual lives of contemporary American teenagers. It reports the findings of The National Study of Youth and Religion, the largest and most detailed such study ever undertaken. Based on a nationwide telephone survey of teens and their parents, as well as in-depth face-to-face interviews with more than 250 of the survey respondents, Soul Searching shows that religion is indeed a significant factor in the lives of many American teenagers. Chock full of carefully interpreted interview data and solid survey statistics, Soul Searching reveals many surprising findings. For example, the authors find that teenagers are far more influenced by the religious beliefs and practices of their parents and other adults than is commonly thought. They challenge the conventional wisdom that many teens today are “spiritual seekers.” And they show that greater teenage religious involvement is significantly associated with more positive adolescent life outcomes.
Soul Searching reveals the complexity of contemporary teenage religious life, showing that religion is widely practiced and positively valued by teens, but also de-prioritized and very poorly understood by them, yet significant nonetheless in shaping their lives. More broadly, Soul Searching describes what appears to be a major transformation of faith in the U.S., away from the substance of historical religious traditions and toward a new and quite different faith the authors call “Moralistic Therapeutic Deism.”Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Kingdom Authority : The Journey To Becoming A Person Of Authority
$19.98Discover God’s plan for delegating His authority to ordinary people enabling them to fulfill their God-appointed destiny.
We instinctively yearn to walk in a place of authority, in a place of power. And so we should-we were created in God’s image, and we bear His authoritative likeness deep in our spirit. Yet many of us never seem to discover the fullness and the power of the God-image that we bear. Our family relationships are in disarray; we never really experience any kind of power in the spiritual realm; we seem stuck in a negative job situation. We feel powerless to bring positive change into our lives. Why? Because we have not learned how to live in a way that releases God’s authority in our personal lives. In Kingdom Authority, you will discover the biblical principles that will enable you to fulfill your destiny as a person of authority. As you apply God’s authority principles, you can expect to see a release of His power in your life.

Body Broken : Answering Gods Call To Love One Another
$10.99For those brave writers who attempt to dispense spiritual wisdom from their own experiences, each sentence can be fraught with peril. Those who traffic in their own experiences of God for a public audience run the risk of disclosing too much or too little-having too many answers to be convincing, or not enough to satisfy the hungry reader. What saves Episcopal layman and veteran spiritual writer Benson’s autobiographical musings from becoming routine is his willingness to share his struggles with a specific issue: why is the fellowship of believers broken into so many competing parties? Benson’s desire to understand, respect and honor the faith of other Christians is a powerful force here, animating that which otherwise might have seemed mundane. Reflecting on how difficult it is for even those bound by a mutual faith to seek a common scriptural understanding, Benson comments: “We are not called to explain the Christ; we called to follow the Christ. We are not called to build walls that keep his friends apart from each other; we are called to build the kingdom together.” Alternatively tender, sad, regretful and joyous, Benson offers his tales with the honesty of a man who doesn’t pretend to have all the answers. He brings to the topic a profound, if chastened, sense of God’s presence in his daily life and relationships. Benson’s passion will appeal to many readers seeking a well-crafted meditation on a topic that has persistently bemused Christians of all denominations.

Gods Cleansing Stream (Reprinted)
$12.99God’s Cleansing Stream reveals why every church needs a deliverance ministry and teaches pastors and counselors how they can put one to practical use. Deliverance was originally part of every church, but the rise of self-help programs and the idea of an individual’s ability to change without God’s help edged the church away from God’s Word and power. Instead, deliverance came to be thought of as mere superstition. Now Chris Hayward provides tools for churches to reestablish this effective, proven ministry so that it can liberate captive souls and advance God’s plans in the lives of individuals everywhere.

Grounded in solid research and written in a popular style, this book is both a helpful apologetic tool in talking with unbelievers and a source of evidence for why Christianity deserves credit for many of the human, social, scientific, and cultural advances in the Western world in the last two thousand years. Photographs, timelines, and charts enhance each chapter. This edition features questions for reflection and discussion for each chapter.

Being Gods Man By Claiming Your Freedom (Student/Study Guide)
$11.99You’ve already been set free by Christ.
When are you going to start experiencing that freedom?What does it look like when a man lives out a truly authentic, loving walk with Jesus Christ? It looks like freedom.
The Apostle Paul, a man made new by the gospel of Jesus Christ, presents one of the clearest images of the godly man in action. He’s committed to a life of faith, focused on the Spirit instead of the flesh, set free to love others. No longer focused on himself, he demonstrates his faith by serving others. You can be that kind of man by claiming your freedom in Christ. Being God’s man means being set free to exemplify Christ’s love.
Being God’s Man by Claiming Your Freedom will stimulate personal reflection and honest dialogue with God and other men. The goal is that you will strive to be God’s man in every way feeling his heart for others, and doing his will obediently and joyfully.

Being Gods Man By Walking A New Path (Student/Study Guide)
$10.00Take up a new calling. Walk a new path. And experience life’s greatest adventure.
Will you discover your true reason for living, enter the battle, and become a new man in Christ? Or will you settle for less? To live more purposefully, to experience a full life, to become more, you will have to become someone else and walk a new path.
This kind of attitude is what the Navy Seals look for in a man: Rogue warriors. Unconventional. Committed. Guys who will do anything to win the battle and stay true to their new identities. Walking this new path requires men who won’t shrink from the battle.
In spirit, the Apostle Paul was this kind of a rogue warrior for God’s kingdom. He was tough and uncompromising and he held to a code that marked his life. He lived on purpose, not by accident. He surrendered his life and became a support for others. If you choose to become this kind of man made new, unwilling to compromise, then let this great apostle lead the way.

Being Gods Man By Standing Firm Under Pressure (Student/Study Guide)
$10.00How to maintain your godly boundaries even under pressure.
When you’re faced with an imminent threat, your body releases adrenaline. Your heart beats faster. Your muscles tense, and all your senses switch to Go. But what happens when your spiritual well-being is under attack? Do you stand strong in your desire to do God’s will or run for the hills?
The path of faith is tough traveling. Fighting to hold on to God’s purposes under adverse conditions is inconvenient, impractical, and thoroughly unpredictable. Standing firm under pressure reveals our true convictions about God, about everything.
In Being God’s Man by Standing Firm Under Pressure you’ll examine one man named Daniel and his band of brothers who demonstrated how not to compromise under pressure. They didn’t let misfortune, temptation, manipulation, intimidation, or even death shake their faith into compromise. Instead, they faced each new challenging circumstance with courage and trust. As God’s man, you can, too.

Being Gods Man By Understanding A Womans Heart (Student/Study Guide)
$10.00How to be God’s man in relationship with a woman.
Few men would ever embark on an important project, a significant career change, or a major athletic challenge without gathering all the tactical knowledge possible to insure a good outcome. Yet, when it comes to relationships with women, most men fail to apply the simple principles that make them successful in other areas of life.
It may be easy to get into a relationship with a woman, but it’s not so easy to make the relationship work well. It takes energy. It demands effort. It requires education and understanding.
God is available to help. But there’s a catch: God’s man must connect with God’s purposes before he can truly connect with his wife (or wife-to-be). God uses the marriage relationship to promote growth in men’s lives, because it shows us our character gaps and drives us to Him for solutions.
If you want true intimacy and connection with a woman, you’ll need to grow up and graduate from God’s school of character. This book, Being God’s Man by Understanding a Woman’s Heart, is the perfect start.

Being Gods Man By Finding Contentment
$10.00How satisfied are you with your life?
Men like you are finding it tougher than ever to be content with what they have. They compare themselves with others and continually come up short. The soul-gnawing result is discouragement and disappointment.
Lasting contentment comes only from a transformation of your mind, emotions, and will. It also takes a personal encounter with the God who can make you content.
In Being God’s Man by Finding Contentment, you will track this struggle for a new identity through various biblical passages. Like Jacob, you will not be fully settled and content until you lay to rest your past and take up a new identity in Christ. Jacob became a new creature, a man on a mission for the Lord. His struggle was over. He knew why he was here and what he had to do. His life took on purpose and meaning that transcended the striving. Yours can, too.

You have to live in this world. But if you want to be God’s man, there’s a catch: You can’t be absorbed or influenced by the world. You have to stand strong as a man of God and resist the world.

In Being God’s Man by Resisting the World, you’ll take a look at Christ’s template of values as revealed in the Sermon on the Mount.
