Threaded Bible Study Plus Streaming Video (Student/Study Guide)
$24.99Have you found your place in God’s story?
God’s story is a divine tapestry, intricately woven with intention from the beginning. Every thread connects the past, present, and future, revealing a Creator who intimately leans into your brokenness and chaos to bring redemption. From the first moments of creation, when God’s Spirit hovered over the waters, a plan full of shalom–wholeness and harmony–was set into motion. Humanity once walked in communion with God, but when we deviated from His design, sin began to unravel the beauty. Yet God’s love and plan never wavered.
Through the Noahic, Abrahamic, Mosaic, and Davidic Covenants, we see God’s faithfulness and His desire to restore creation. These promises build toward fulfillment in Jesus Christ and invite us to weave our lives into God’s larger narrative.
This six-week Bible study by author and pastor Tara Beth Leach explores these sacred threads, helping you see God’s redemptive hand in your life. No matter where you are in the story, there’s a place for you in His plans for restoration and renewal.
This study guide includes:

Natural Law : 5 Views
$34.99The story of “natural law” – the idea that God has written a law on the human heart so that ethical norms derive from human nature – in twentieth-century Protestant ethics is one of rejection and resurgence. For half a century, luminaries like Karl Barth, Carl F. H. Henry, and Cornelius Van Til cast a shadow over natural law moral reflection because of its putative link to natural theology, autonomous reason, associations with Catholic theology, and ethical witness devoid of special revelation. However, over the past twenty years, Protestant theologians have renewed their interest in the subject, often animated by debates on Christian involvement in the public arena and on matters of life, death, and gender and sexuality. Much of this engagement has happened within Reformed circles and has largely been conducted without reference to Roman Catholic construals of the natural law. Conversely, Catholic developments in natural-law thinking have paid little attention to the surge of interest on the Protestant side. As a result, Protestant and Catholic natural proponents – and even those skeptical of the natural law – are not in conversation with one another.
The lack of dialog between the various schools of natural law has left a historic tradition within Christian moral thought underdeveloped in contemporary Protestant theology. By bringing together a variety of perspectives in much-needed conversation, this book helps readers to understand the various construals of natural law within the broader strands of Christian and classical traditions and clarifies its unique importance for Christian moral witness in a secular culture. The contributors address the following questions:
*What is natural law?
*Can moral norms be derived from immanent, creaturely ends? If so, how specific or action-guiding can those norms be? How extensive might these moral norms be?
*How does natural law endure despite Christian insistence on the noetic, epistemological effects of sin?
*What is the relationship between Christian reflection on natural law and the broader classical tradition’s understanding of natural law?
*How do Catholic and Protestant construals of natural law differ?
*What is the relationship between faith and reason?
*What’s the relationship between human nature and natural law?
*Does “natural law” mean: “secular moral reasons”? Or is “natural law” merely religious belief disguised as public reason?
*How does natural law relate to public re

Love Made Me An Inventor
$25.00Foreword by Emmanuel Katongole
On October 25, 1993, Maggy Barankitse buried seventy-two bodies in a mass grave on the grounds of the bishop’s house in Burundi, a day after she was made to watch as they were murdered in a fit of ethnic violence. What happened next would save tens of thousands of children from death and despair during a protracted civil war.
Love Made Me an Inventor is how Marguerite (Maggy) Barankitse describes how she has been able to accomplish her life-saving work. In this first-ever authorized biography in English, readers will encounter her extraordinary journey from survivor to founder of Maison Shalom and the name “Angel of Burundi.”
For twenty-two years Maison Shalom provided care for mothers and children devastated by war and ethnic violence in Burundi. Then, after narrowly escaping an assassination attempt in 2015, Maggy’s work shifted to helping Burundian refugees in Rwanda through education, healthcare, and community services.

Grace Unbound : The Sacred Activism Of An Orthodox Bishop
$53.33The first step of any great journey can be the riskiest one of all. It is 1992, and the nation is reeling from the AIDS pandemic. When Fr. Demetri, a newly ordained Chicago-born priest, visits Bob-a man dying from complications due to AIDS, abandoned by his own parish priest out of fear-his life takes an unexpected turn. That single act of compassion sparks a deeper calling to social activism, setting him on a path he never anticipated. Yet nothing prepared the hard-nosed priest for a face-to-face encounter with a convicted murderer years later. Andrew, who is scheduled to be executed in less than three weeks, maintains his innocence regarding the grisly crime. But when the governor of the state-the inmate’s last hope-refuses to show mercy, the priest must again face the true cost of his calling.
In this gripping true story of faith, justice, and redemption, one priest’s mission to save a single life becomes a fight to transform an entire system.

Lies My Therapist Told Me
$32.99From beloved Christian counselor, professor, and podcaster Greg Gifford comes a bold critique of the mental health establishment. Therapy can backfire and fail, but Christ offers more.
Too many people are caught in a vicious cycle of visiting every doctor, psychiatrist, psychologist, and therapist in their area only to find frustrating labels and numbing medications at the end of each path. Rather than eradicating anxiety in the same way vaccines conquered smallpox, the mental health establishment has seen the number of diagnoses and prescriptions skyrocket on its watch.
How did we get here? And does Christianity have any answers for this mental health crisis?
In Lies My Therapist Told Me, Dr. Greg Gifford delivers the definitive Christian critique of secular psychiatry and psychology. He shows how mental health culture spreads beliefs that misinform our understanding of ourselves and our issues, and he debunks popular myths such as:
*We feel and act the way we do because the body keeps the scores of trauma
*Addiction is a disease
*If you improve your brain health, your mind will follow
*Medications can heal your soul
*Every abnormal or sinful behavior is caused by a mental disorderThese ideas, though common, are ultimately unhelpful because they are based on unbiblical assumptions. Gifford brings clarity where secular therapy has created confusion, and offers hope even for those struggling with the hard cases. Through deep research, biblical teaching, and the inspiring stories of real counselees, he shows why we can’t blame the past –or even a diagnosis– for our bad behavior, and why our society’s growing unhappiness is not primarily a medical issue.
With a foreword by Todd Friel of Wretched Radio, this book is a must-read for counselors and counselees alike. You can read all the mental health research in the world, but you still won’t learn God’s answers for winning the battles in your mind. Lies My Therapist Told Me is a powerful, cutting-edge argument that the supernatural wisdom of the Bible is truly enough for every need.

Swimming Against The Current
$18.99NOW A NATIONAL BESTSELLER (USA TODAY)!
America’s most sought-after voice in the fight to save female sports shares her unbelievable story and inspires readers to embrace common sense and truth in discussions about women’s rights.
Riley Gaines has been called many things: Collegiate athlete. All-American. Champion. But in 2022, everything changed. The narrative shifted. Now, critics smeared her as: Transphobic. Narrow-minded. Evil.
What changed? Riley gave the truth a voice. She stood up, spoke out, and dared to ask questions — not just for herself, but for all female athletes who refuse to accept an ideology where “inclusivity” for trans-identifying male athletes now means treating women unfairly.
Riley Gaines is changing minds in the process, and this highly anticipated, fearless, pro-woman book takes on controversial but critical questions we must confront about women (and sports) in America. Can’t we embrace policies that give everyone the chance to compete but still protect women and ensure they have a fair shot at success?
In this book, Riley scrutinizes the perspectives of athletes on the opposing side of this debate, deconstructing their arguments with science, facts, and logic. She also asks what has happened to free speech and dissent in this country, where it now seems nearly impossible to have a well-reasoned debate. And in telling her story, Riley reveals what’s at stake if the truth-seekers remain silent about the injustices women face from radical agendas.

Multigenerational Church Crisis
$24.99Harness the strengths of every generation to create a church that endures
– open the lines of communication
– appreciate the experiences that shaped each generation in your church
– unite in one mission to impact your community and the worldIt may seem hard for younger Christians to believe that people over 50 were raised during an era when 90 percent of Americans identified as Christian. These older believers were once part of a majority group that understood the mission of the church was to take control of our culture to halt its evils. At the same time, Christians under 50 have lived their entire lives perceiving themselves as a minority that needs to make credible their faith to a secular, pluralistic culture.
These distinct experiences and perceptions have a profound impact on the priorities different generations have for church ministry. It’s no wonder that younger and older believers don’t always see eye to eye! But imagine what could be accomplished in the name of Christ if we could better understand each other and turn that understanding into shared purpose and aligned priorities?
Backed by thorough research, this eminently practical and hopeful book from pastor and scholar Bryan Chapell shows you how to open the lines of communication, appreciate the experiences that shaped each generation in your church, and unite in one mission to impact your community and the world.

Hope Breaks Through
$18.99Discover how to exchange what is for what could be:
– replace discouragement with hope
– work alongside God to effect meaningful change
– encounter rich biblical teaching and remarkable true storiesHopelessness is everywhere. It doesn’t discriminate. It’s a form of spiritual poverty lurking in remote villages, destitute refugee camps, suburban homes, and corner offices. The sheer magnitude of the needs we see can paralyze us, harden our hearts, and tempt us to choose indifference.
But when we lose hope, we surrender both our earthly influence and our spiritual inheritance. With rich biblical teaching and remarkable stories, Heath Adamson invites you to exchange what is with what could be. The hope he writes of isn’t wishful thinking. It’s a biblical, transformative, future-focused force that breaks through our circumstances, and makes it possible for us to work alongside God to effect meaningful change.
If you have been discouraged or overwhelmed, you are not alone. By seeing beyond your life, you will discover how true hope can change your mindset and reignite your passion to serve others.

Passionate Pursuit : Sustaining The Zeal Of Personal Revival
$18.99Transform a life of spiritual dryness into a life of spiritual zeal:
– vital revelations, biblical wisdom, and practical principles
– ignite a vibrant, contagious relationship with Christ
– from a seasoned revivalist and pastorIn an age of excess, the primary enemy of revival is “enough.” When you’re comfortable and full, you lose the desperation required to keep a heart on fire for Jesus. Ultimately, our “enough” leads not to fullness, but to empty, cold hearts.
Igniting the fires of personal revival, seasoned revivalist and pastor Kim Owens shows that a heart on fire for Jesus is the antidote to apathy and complacency. Sharing vital revelations, biblical wisdom, and practical principles discovered in a 10-year-sustained revival, Pastor Kim equips you to:
– transform a life of spiritual dryness into one with spiritual zeal
– maintain a holy desperation for God
– prioritize a passionate pursuit of Jesus
– experience a vibrant, contagious relationship with ChristThere will be no personal revival if there’s no personal pursuit. In these difficult times before Christ’s return, it’s imperative we live in his presence and fullness, on fire with zeal and passion. This is not optional. This is what Jesus shed his blood for.

Light In Our Eyes
$17.00For the millions who have felt disillusioned with American evangelical culture, this book is a lifeline for navigating the cynicism of both conservative and progressive beliefs to find real hope in the life and mission of Jesus.
As a pastor and author, Nicholas McDonald spent years helping people work through serious questions about the evangelical church’s gospel and its often hurtful responses to those confused by American Evangelical culture. He quickly realized that what these people needed-what he really needed-was not merely apologetics answers but the good news that speaks to their deepest dreams: love, beauty, and freedom-the very things Jesus promises to those who follow Him.
With excellent storytelling and profound insights from his own deconstruction journey, McDonald compassionately addresses the concerns so many readers have with the evangelical subculture’s sense of entitlement, nostalgia, and cynicism. And he outlines a clear path to finding restoration in Jesus. The Light in Our Eyes offers nine ancient practices to help you experience anew-or for the first time-Jesus’s love, beauty, and freedom and to embody and extend them in the world. Through the scriptural song of Zechariah and relatable, inspiring stories of men and women who have been restoried by the gospel of Jesus, this book reminds us that Jesus’ dreams fulfill what our hearts have longed for all along.
Journey from despair and darkness to faith and light as McDonald outlines a path to becoming reenchanted by the dreams Jesus has for each one of us, the church, and the world. To take up His dream is the invitation to believe again, and to hope again.

It’s time to take your joy back! Maybe you’re wondering why life has to be so confusing. Maybe you’re tired of feeling anxious. Maybe you’re just blah lately. Bible teacher, songwriter, and one of Christian music’s most contagiously joyful voices, Pastor Tauren Wells has a powerful reminder for you: Jesus’ first message was about how to be truly happy.

*Eight life-changing ways to reorient our lives toward joy
*Understanding why joy is not dependent on our emotional state or the state of the world
*What attitudes or behaviors keep us from experiencing God’s joy
*How we can become freer in worship, life, and our relationship with God
*Why Jesus’ ways of living don’t just create warm fuzzies but create joy deep within usWe find more in this life than we ever imagined when we understand the patterns and promises of God’s kingdom. More fulfillment, more purpose, more satisfaction–and radical joy.

Spellbound : How Charisma Shaped American History From The Puritans To Dona
$32.00Everyone feels it. Cultural and political life in America has become unrecognizable and strange. Firebrands and would-be sages have taken the place of reasonable and responsible leaders. Nuanced debates have given way to the smug confidence of yard signs. How did we get here?
In Spellbound, historian Molly Worthen argues that we will understand our present moment if we learn the story of charisma in America. From the Puritans and Andrew Jackson to Black nationalists and Donald Trump, the saga of American charisma, Worthen argues, stars figures who possess a dangerous and alluring power to move crowds. They invite followers into a cosmic drama where hopes are fulfilled and grievances are put right-and these charismatic leaders insist that they alone plot the way.
The story of charisma in America reveals that when traditional religious institutions fail to deliver on their promise of a meaningful life, people will get their spiritual needs met in a warped cultural and political landscape dominated by those who appear to have the power to bring order and meaning out of chaos. Charismatic leaders address spiritual needs, offering an alternate reality where people have knowledge, power, and heroic status, whether as divinely chosen instruments of God or those who will restore national glory.
Through Worthen’s centuries-spanning historical research, Spellbound places a crucial religious lens on the cultural, economic, and political upheavals facing Americans today.

Tell Your Catholic Friend
$17.99We all have Catholic friends. The question is: Are we sharing the gospel with them? If we are, how are we doing it?
The Roman Catholic Church is the largest religious institution in the world with approx. 1.3 billion Catholics world-wide. Although Roman Catholicism seems to be a single unified belief system, not all Catholics believe the same things or act in the same way. Regardless, all Roman Catholics feel connected to their church’s traditions and rituals. Unfortunately, the church of Rome does not hold the Bible as the highest authority or teach that salvation comes by faith alone. Many Catholics might be baptized but may not be true believers according to the Bible. Therefore, when we talk about Jesus and the gospel with our Catholic friends, it’s crucial to understand their beliefs and the key issues involved.
The book will give answers to the following questions:
*Is Roman Catholicism yet another denomination?
*Are Catholics born again?
*What gospel narratives and tips can be used to share the gospel with Catholics?
*What are the FAQs in our gospel conversations?Tell Your Catholic Friends will help you understand both Roman Catholicism and your Roman Catholic friends better, encouraging you to share the gospel with them, and empowering you to do so in a faithful, loving and appealing way.

She’s booked the same beach house, convinced her sisters to take the month off, and even made a bucket list to fit in all their favorite coastal fun. It’s going to be perfect . . . or else. (And if planning this trip has anything to do with a certain secret she’s hiding . . . well, let’s not dwell on that.) Sun, sand, and some sisterly bonding–what could possibly go wrong?
Enter Bianca, the baby of the family, with a huge announcement: she’s getting married! And her sisters’ reactions are . . . not exactly what she hoped for. But Bianca is on a mission to prove that she’s not the mess they think she is. Her grand plan? To find love for Cora, her perpetually single sister, on the same dating app where she found her fiance. The stakes? A bet that if Cora can’t find her ‘One’ on the app, Bianca will call off her engagement. A challenge Bianca is all too ready to tackle head-on, even if it means a little conniving. Cora’s about to get swept off her feet, whether she likes it or not!
Meanwhile, Cora is rolling her eyes so hard they might get stuck. Love is a fairy tale for other people, not her. As she’s filling out her dating profile, she thinks–nope, she knows–it’ll be easy to show her sisters just how absurd this whole love thing is. So what if this Jax guy Cora just matched with is Hemsworth-brother hot? And, if his messages could be believed, maybe even slightly charming? None of this is real, anyway–love just doesn’t come easily Cora. And she’s getting ready to prove it. She’s got this under control.
(Spoiler alert: nothing is under control.)
What Not to Do on Vacation is a charming and lighthearted rom-com that promises low spice but high laughter. Join our leading ladies as they navigate through beach vibes, dating app drama, fake dating, and a playboy hero with a heart of gold in this modern reimagining of The Taming of the Shrew. A must-read for those who enjoy adorable romance sans the steam, a healthy dose of family drama, and a fair share of humor. So, if you’re ready to dip your toes into this sun-kissed, feel-good read, don’t wait! For fans of Jenny Hale, Emma St. Clair and Melissa Ferguson.

Full Court Faith
$26.00A Maxwell Leadership Ttitle
In Full Court Faith, George Shinn’s remarkable journey from small-town obscurity to NBA franchise owner shows how trusting God’s plan can lead to incredible success, redemption, and miraculous life transformations.
“God has done many wonderful things in my life-but the biggest things aren’t the accomplishments I used to take the most pride in.” -George Shinn
What can God do with a poor country boy from a small town in North Carolina? The child no one expected much from. The kid who finished high school dead last in his graduating class. One of only two students in the whole school on government assistance. The young man who had to clean business school toilets in exchange for tuition. The aspiring pro-sports franchise owner no one in New York or California took seriously. The victim of an extortion scandal that rocked the sports and business communities of Charlotte, North Carolina. The sinner whose private mistakes became front-page news for more than a year.
What can God do with a person like that?
Amazing things . . . things that lead to unbelievable fame and fortune.
Wonderful things . . . things that brought new life and vigor to a southern gem no one outside the south had ever heard of.
Miraculous things . . . things that have saved the lives of numerous stroke victims-including his own.
Full Court Faith presents the uniquely inspiring life of Charlotte entrepreneur, businessman, and former NBA franchisee George Shinn, the man who brought professional sports to North Carolina. With charm, wit, humility, and his trademark enthusiasm, Shinn tells his story his way-taking responsibility for the mistakes and giving God all the credit for the victories.
If you’ve ever wondered, What could God do with someone like me? Full Court Faith brings you the answer:
Anything He wants. As long as you’re willing to trust Him on the journey.

Standing Strong In The Anointing
$18.99How Do We Handle Supernatural Power?
God desires to anoint His people with supernatural power, and He invites us to encounter Him in deep ways.
Yet the reality is that we might walk in the anointing with signs and wonders following-and even see lasting fruit for the kingdom of God-but not be walking in personal integrity and godliness. This may be equally true of someone in full-time ministry and an individual believer who receives supernatural encounters.
How does God want us to think about all this?
After experiencing numerous moves of the Spirit and seeing many tragic casualties in the church, Dr. James Goll has written Standing Strong in the Anointing to help us understand the biblical nature of the anointing, interpret the various ways of the Holy Spirit, and walk wisely as we experience divine encounters. You will learn how to:
*Cooperate with the Holy Spirit to increase the anointing in your life
*Unlock supernatural encounters
*Recognize the deception and temptations that can undermine the anointing
*Safeguard your faith so you can finish strongSupernatural experiences are exciting, but they also can be diverse and complex, and we must understand how to respond to them and the power we receive through them. James shows you how to walk in the anointing and experience supernatural encounters and still remain fully grounded in Christ-avoiding the pitfalls that have caused so many others to fall into error.
The ultimate goal of any supernatural encounter is to reveal Jesus. He is our great reward, and He is also able to keep us from stumbling as we discern the traps and embrace the blessings of supernatural encounters.

Raising Disciples At Home
$19.99Discipleship Without All the Pressure
If discipling your children sounds like a daunting, shame-filled impossibility, you’re not alone. As a children’s pastor and father of four, Chris Ammen has experienced your frustration firsthand and understands that most parents feel inadequate for the task. But what if our inadequacy isn’t a failure, but is just the place from which God chooses to work?
In his debut book, Chris celebrates the freedom we have to disciple our children from a place of weakness and dependency on God while uncovering these key truths . . .
Truth #1: You are not the lynchpin of your child’s journey of discipleship. God is.
Truth #2: Discipleship is nothing less than God molding and shaping the entirety of our personhood into his image as those who delight in him and bring him glory.
Truth #3: You’re not qualified to disciple your children. But God is. And he can work through you to move your children closer to becoming more like his son, Jesus.
Let’s explore together what discipleship is and isn’t and what we can do to partner with God in loving and discipling our kids.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Formed For Fellowship
$22.99You are being formed. The only question is what is forming you?
The truth is that your life will look like whatever you love most.
You are shaped by what you seek. You become what you behold.
What we spend our time consuming will inform who we are becoming, and where we set our eyes today will determine the trajectory of who we are years and even decades from now. God’s invitation to His people is to be formed for fellowship: fellowship with God and with one another.
We are born into this world malformed and broken, but we don’t have to stay that way. God loves us and He wants to change us. “Spiritual Formation” is the question of what, why, and how God changes His people to look more and more like Christ.
Christians often struggle with the “Why?” of the Christian life: Why is it good to obey God? Why pray? Why read the bible? Why share the gospel? In Formed for Fellowship: Becoming what you Behold, Kyle Worley helps connect the dots between the practices of the Christian life and the nature and works of God. If we become what we behold, then every “spiritual discipline” of the Christian life must lead us to look upon God.
Formed for Fellowship will answer crucial questions like:
*What is a person?
*How are we formed?
*Where do we belong?
*What do we love?
*What do we know?
*What has our attention?
*What do we give our time to?
*Where is our hope?
*Who is our enemy?Every one of us is being shaped, changed, and formed every day. Are we being shaped to look more like Christ or more like the world? Formed for Fellowship is an invitation to look upon God and be changed.

Desperate Woman Seeks Friends
$19.99If you’ve ever been tempted to put a sign in your front yard advertising for new friends, scream or sob in frustration over a “friend’s” hot and cold behavior, or cringe at the memory of awkward friendship encounters, you can trust Kristen Strong’s decades of experience at regularly relocating and remaking friends to provide both solid hope and practical direction to try again to find the friends you need.
In Desperate Woman Seeks Friends, Kristen Strong offers her two decades of experience as a regularly relocating military spouse and one decade as a settled civilian to address head on the crisis facing women today in startling numbers: an acute loneliness and isolation due to a lack of friends and community.
Often, social media will give a band-aid for loneliness, but looking to social media to be your only source of friendship is like relying on breadcrumbs as a steady diet for dinner: it won’t nourish or satisfy. Unless some of those online connections turn into real-life ones, they’re no substitute for in-person friendships.
Research shows friends are as important for our overall welfare as healthy eating habits and a good night’s sleep, and Kristen gives you a game plan for getting your friendship groove back. Chapters include:
*Boundaries are our friends and our friends’ friends
*What you can expect will kill friendships
*I love my friend to pieces, but I don’t love her views on ____________
*When a friendship ends without your say-so
*Rejection sucks, but don’t let it suck you down
*Your top-notch tool for building your friendships
*Making friends by opening up
*Your Friend who never fails in friendshipsIt’s not just you. Making friends is hard! But it’s not impossible. Through tell-it-like-it-is talk and vulnerable stories, Kristen wants to help you be a good friend to others and to yourself through principles and practices that give life to your friendships. And she wants to show you that while friends may fail you, your Friend Jesus never will. You’re meant to have lasting friendships that feed your heart and soul–you are not the exception.

Rumors Of God
$19.99Discover a faith that goes beyond doubt and reveals how God continues to fulfill his promises today just as he did in biblical times, unlocking true purpose and fulfillment in our busy, modern lives.
Where is the life God promised us?
In the midst of our fast-paced schedules and endless distractions, we often push God to the background, struggling to believe that his promises are still relevant. He seems distant, and the abundant life Jesus spoke about doesn’t seem possible. When we hear that God wants to give, say, and show us more, we assume it’s just a rumor. But what if God really is calling us to something more–a life of deeper purpose, fulfillment, and peace today and right now?
In Rumors of God, Jon Tyson and Darren Whitehead challenge us to reimagine what it means to live a life shaped by faith. They invite us to close the gap between the promises we’ve heard and the reality we experience, helping us see how God’s presence and power are at work even in our modern, everyday lives.
This book is more than a reminder–it’s a call to rediscover a God who is active, present, and moving among us. For those feeling weary, jaded, or uncertain about how faith fits into today’s world, Rumors of God offers a fresh perspective on God’s timeless promises.

Ann Wilson spent more than a decade longing for a better marriage and for her husband to be more attentive, more involved, more helpful, and just all-around better. And every chance she got, she told him so. Where she thought she was being helpful, she was instead badgering him with constant critiques until all he heard was, “Boo! Boo!” when they were together. It almost broke their marriage. But Ann discovered the power that God has given wives.
No matter how long you’ve been married, you don’t need to spend another minute hoping and wishing for things to be different. They can! And the power is in your hands.
In this motivating, honest new book, Ann–marriage coach and bestselling author with her husband, Dave–shares how she breathed new life into her marriage by stewarding one of the most powerful gifts believers inherit from the Creator: encouragement. God has given wives a superpower to influence their husbands and homes, and you can use that power to build up and encourage your man to be a better husband, father, and man of God while still speaking truth to him. Relatable, encouraging, biblical, and funny, Ann shares stories from her own life, as well as valuable insights from Scripture, to help you:
*Address the ways you process and justify your communication patterns
*Seek spiritual and relational (re)alignment with both your husband and God
*Learn to exercise self-control and demonstrate radical grace in conversations with your husband
*Begin to cheer more than boo–in a way that isn’t put on, fake, or inauthentic

*And, ultimately, cultivate a grace-based marriage that thrives

Your Pain Has A Name
$19.99Therapist Monica DiCristina brings proven psychology techniques to readers looking to understand and embrace their pain so they can begin to heal and move forward with a full life ahead of them.
Monica DiCristina struggled for years to describe the pain she was experiencing inside. Without knowing what was behind her anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and fears, she created other names for them: “not good enough,” “unworthy,” “messed up,” and “wrong.” Through the slow process of understanding her own story, she discovered a glorious path to healing, as well as a calling to become a therapist to help others in the same way.
Now, Monica has created a guide to help you identify the patterns and barriers that are keeping you from being your authentic self. While not every wound may fully heal, each one can be understood, and that understanding starts when you confront the pain–not just recognizing the hurt, but naming and honoring it.
In Your Pain Has a Name, Monica offers a compassionate, open space for you to give voice to your pain. With the nurturing curiosity often found in a therapist’s office, she will help you:
-Uncover your hurts: Pinpoint and define the hidden pain that’s holding you back.
-Name your pain: Accurately describe and validate your feelings.
-Reclaim your identity: Distinguish yourself from the false stories your pain has created.
-Embrace your healing: Release the pain that no longer serves you and step into your truth.In finding the language to describe your hurts, you gain the space and courage to become your fullest self–mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Join Monica on a journey to release the pain that isn’t yours to carry.

Is Christianity The White Mans Religion
$18.99Among many young people of color, there is a growing wariness about organized religion and Christianity in particular. If Christianity is for everyone, why does the Bible seem to endorse slavery? Why do most popular images of Jesus feature a man with white skin and blue eyes? Is evangelical Christianity “good news” or a tool of white supremacy?
As our society increases in ethnic and religious diversity, millennials and the next generation of emerging adults harbor suspicions about traditional Christianity. They’re looking for a faith that makes sense for the world they see around them. They want to know how Christianity relates to race, ethnicity, and societal injustices. Many young adults have rejected the Christian faith based on what they’ve seen in churches, the media, and politics. For them, Christianity looks a lot like a “white man’s religion.”
Antipas L. Harris, a theologian and community activist, believes that biblical Christianity is more affirmative of cultural diversity than many realize. In this sweeping social, theological, and historical examination of Christianity, Harris responds to a list of hot topics from young Americans who struggle with the perception that Christianity is detached from matters of justice, identity, and culture. He also looks at the ways in which American evangelicalism may have incubated the race problem.
Is Christianity the White Man’s Religion? affirms that ethnic diversity has played a powerful role in the formation of the Old and New Testaments and that the Bible is a book of justice, promoting equality for all people. Contrary to popular Eurocentric conceptions, biblical Christianity is not just for white Westerners. It’s good news for all of us.

Watching For The Morning
$22.99Have your tears lasted more than a night as you’ve been watching for the morning? Does the waiting feel too hard and God too distant?
Waiting, watching, hoping – these words describe how Vaneetha lived for years, after her once-comfortable life dissolved in front of her. She pleaded with God to fix her situation and stop the pain in the midst of an escalating illness, the death of a child, and an unwanted divorce. But instead of doing what she asked for, God gave her something even more wonderful. He offered Himself.
This devotional will help you find hope in whatever you’re facing today as it grapples with the inevitable questions:
*How do we embrace the present moment with its pain and imperfections instead of just waiting for our problems to disappear?
*How do we live with uncertainty, trusting that God is doing something beautiful in what appears to be an empty silence?
*How do we wait for God, satisfied in him alone, without insisting on the outcome we want?
These 90 devotions are for anyone who is waiting in the dark, wondering when life will get better. Some reflections will encourage you to press on, some will help you process your losses, others will make you laugh, and still others will show you the gift of lament, in both its grittiness and grace. Ultimately, they’re all intended to draw you closer to the God who is always for you – who is nearer than you know and loves you more than you can imagine.
Weeping may last for the night but joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5Add to cart4 in stock (additional units can be purchased)
