ButGod : The Power Of Hope When Catastrophe Crashes In
$19.99
Pastor Jeremy Freeman shares the miraculous story of his son’s 10 percent chance of survival after a devastating car accident, the darkness that nearly overtook their family, and the #butGod movement that captured the prayers of believers and brought hope and healing.
Sir, your sons have been in a car accident. How quickly can you get here?
From the phone call no parent wants to receive to the frantic drive toward the flashing lights at the side of the highway, then the ER, the neuro ICU, and the rehab hospital to persevering through seemingly impossible odds, #butGod is the raw remembrance from pastor, husband, and father Jeremy Freeman of the events that nearly left his family undone and the stunning hope and astonishing healing they experienced instead. The story is also an explicit invitation to risk it all for the spiritual satisfaction that outlasts even the most coveted earthly gains.
Caleb’s story proves that through tragedy it is possible to create waves that ultimately change the world. Doctors gave him very little chance of survival, but Jeremy and his wife, Emily, turned to God in prayer, encouraging other believers to join them through interviews by local news stations and online messages. Jeremy witnessed God move others to pray and saw God begin to miraculously heal Caleb. As a father, he learned to let go of his dreams for his family so that he could grasp God’s higher goals instead.
Nearly four years later, Caleb is able to walk and talk, and he is passionate about sharing Jesus with others and he swears he wouldn’t change a thing. Jeremy transparently discloses how God turned their tragedy into a powerful testimony of hope and faith that is shared through the emergence of the #butGod movement.
Readers will:
*see that they’re not alone in their struggle to cope with tragedy and grief.

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.

Prayer
$18.00Renowned pastor and New York Times bestselling author of The Songs of Jesus Timothy Keller explores the power of prayer.
Christians are taught in their churches and schools that prayer is the most powerful way to experience God. But few receive instruction or guidance in how to make prayer genuinely meaningful. In Prayer, renowned pastor Timothy Keller delves into the many facets of this everyday act.
With his trademark insights and energy, Keller offers biblical guidance as well as specific prayers for certain situations, such as dealing with grief, loss, love, and forgiveness. He discusses ways to make prayers more personal and powerful, and how to establish a practice of prayer that works for each reader.
Dr. Keller’s previous books have sold more than one million copies. His Redeemer Presbyterian Church is not only a major presence in his home base of New York, it has also helped to launch more than two hundred fifty other churches in forty-eight cities around the world. His teachings have already helped millions, the majority of whom pray regularly. And with Prayer, he’ll show them how to find a deeper connection with God.
