$19.99
From the very beginning, Christianity has been the faith of world-changers, rejecters of the status quo, and rebels. So when did it get so safe? Reclaim your roots with Dangerous Prayers, a collection of prayers from people throughout history who took God at His word and changed the world forever through their faith.
Life with Christ was never meant to be boring. Throughout all of history, God has invited His followers into spectacular callings and daring missions to impact the world through radical love and generosity. So how have Christians today come to expect that Christianity is safe?
Reenergize your faith with Dangerous Prayers: 50 Powerful Prayers That Changed the World, an inspirational compilation of character profiles, struggles, and some of the most famous prayers of people who made great strides for the gospel. Ranging from saints, martyrs, political leaders, and cultural figures, this book offers you a rich visual experience to explore the power of a dynamic relationship with God.
From St. Francis of Assisi to Joan of Arc to Harriett Tubman to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and many more, God can use ordinary people with ordinary lives to do extraordinary things for Him. No matter your age, position, or status, praying dangerous prayers will change your life and, likely, the world around you as well.
There is wisdom to be gained from the prayer lives of spiritual giants, and Dangerous Prayers will invigorate your spiritual journey as you consider those who came before you.
Prayers are beautifully illustrated with portraits of each person who prayed a dangerous prayer. This four-color book is a perfect gift for any Christian and for history lovers.

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.
