Drawing Near : Daily Readings For A Deeper Faith
$24.99
We know that we must nourish our bodies every day with food and water or our health will decline. But we may forget that’s true spiritually as well. When we neglect to regularly feed on the Scriptures, our faith becomes weak and we start to lose touch with our Savior. But a diet of fast food is bad for the body, too. Likewise, your soul needs more than a quick fix. John MacArthur offers a solution–and an alternative to the typical thematic or topical devotionals–by taking an in-depth approach to Bible exposition in this daily companion. Stimulating and instructive, the selections take you on a well-crafted, guided tour of dynamic Bible doctrines and their application to life. There are also practical suggestions for prayer, ideas for further exploration, and an easy-to-use guide for prayer, ideas for further exploration, and an easy-to-read guide for reading through the Bible in a year. Through this daily devotional you will gain a firm grasp of many of the great texts of the Bible. And just as importantly, you will learn how to feed on Scripture on your own, developing the study skills needed to open up the Bible and enjoy its rich, marvelous truths.

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.
