Divorce Death And The Birthing New Life Of A Single Parent
$15.61
The marriage was supposed to last forever, but it didn’t! This book is for women (and men) who suddenly find themselves thrust into the role of single parenting. Just as there are labor pains in childbirth, there are labor pains in the process of single parenting. Left to raise four children ages eleven, ten, five, and four years old, Geniene shares some of her labor pains and her labor of love as a single mother. She openly discusses her early thoughts of suicide. She shares what she calls the second-worst pain a parent could experience–her oldest son sentenced to life in prison–and the peace of God that helps her to bear the never-ending pain. She also shares the story of the car accident that almost took her only daughter’s life. She boldly states why she believes that a mother cannot be both a mother and a father to a son. Geniene’s faith in God, love for her children, support from family and friends, and determination gave her the strength to push through the pain, focus on her children, and embrace her new life as a single mother. The divorce papers took her by surprise, but God is never caught off guard.

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.
