Befriending God : How We Are Undone, Changed, And Made New
$18.99
Do you long to feel closer to God? Are you searching for a faith that’s more than just going through the motions?
Let’s be honest: we often feel distant from God. We spend a lot more time looking like we’re faithful than living out of lifegiving relationship. Our souls ache from the lack of intimacy. Something is missing. We know life isn’t supposed to be this way. What we really want is to know God and be known. We yearn for honest, ongoing connection with God as a real person.
In Befriending God, Tanya Godsey invites us to move beyond religious performance and into authentic relational intimacy through:
*Biblical character studies illuminating how we can encounter God in the struggles, questions, and complexities of our lives;
*Vulnerable, powerful examples of God’s relational transformation in the context of a marginalized community;
*Practical guidance for setting aside faulty cultural norms that keep us from friendship with God;
*Discussion questions and reflective exercises.
If you are craving a genuine connection with God that transcends religious to-dos and cultural currents, Befriending God will help you experience transformation and renewal in your spiritual journey. Discover the joy of knowing God intimately in every season, heartache, and ordinary moment.

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.
