Mary And The Gardener
$16.99
“Mary was the first to see him. She would be the first to share the good news too!”
When Mary Magdalene went to visit the tomb where Jesus had been buried, she found it empty. Although angels told her Jesus had risen, Mary feared someone had taken his body away. She stayed in the garden to weep, and through her tears, she saw a man–the gardener, she assumed.
With rich illustrations, Mary and the Gardener brings to life the Easter story, told through the eyes of the first person the risen Jesus appeared to: Mary Magdalene. Inviting readers to celebrate Jesus’s love, this book reminds us all that Easter marks a new start for Mary–and for everyone.

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.
