Joy Of Fellowship
$28.95
Unfortunately, man’s nature complicates things, and we often cheat ourselves out of great joy by doing “our own thing.” How sad. There is no doubt God’s plan for man includes man’s happiness.
God teaches us joyful living in at least two places. Biblically it is called “walking in fellowship.” This First Epistle of John focuses on “fellowship.” A verse-by-verse expository of that valuable material is extremely helpful.
Also, the Old Testament prophet Enoch was given to us as a role model. God reduced his life of several years into three short phrases: “He walked with God. He pleased God. He was translated to heaven.” God showed his pleasure with his “walk” by taking him up to heaven without his seeing death.
Skimming along the surface, modern man has developed a superficial lifestyle. You will see the joy of living a life of “fellowship with God” on God’s terms.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$26.99The women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
