Gun Lap : Staying In The Race With Purpose
$22.99
When the lead runner starts his final lap in a long-distance race, the starter fires his pistol for the second time. This signals the start of the gun lap-the last chance to leave it all out on the track.
Gun Lap is for men who find themselves at this point in their lives-running their last lap. Or maybe younger men who are still a ways off from their gun lap, but want to live the rest of their lives with purpose and strength nonetheless.
This is no small thing. In fact, it’s a big deal, because we only get one chance at this life. The author of the New Testament book of Hebrews wrote, “It is appointed unto people to die once-and after this, judgment” (9:27 CSB). If we only die once, we’d better pay close attention to how we live. Gun Lap will help you pay close attention to the life you have left by:
*Equipping you with biblical truth for days ahead
*Sharing encouraging stories of men in the race with you or ahead of you
*Challenging you to live the rest of your life with grace and strength

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.
