Memories
$15.61
Austin Patty artfully weaves the poetry of Memories into a fascinating tapestry of personal reflection drawn from four decades of his life experiences. Armed with his life-long love of the English language, his developed skills of word composition, and his natural talent for lyrical phrasing, he began to pen poems that chronicled memorable life events from the 1960s to 2000. Patty begins his journey as a nonbelieving humanist, traveling to the present as a mature, devout, and witnessing Christian. Readers will enjoy his penchant for irony, wit, and humor (sometime robust). His deep soul searching and then discovery propel the reader on to the next poem. This is a wonderful book, alive with deep reflections of love and gleeful expressions of joy, full of gratitude to God. This publication is a must for every lover of God in Christ who enjoys poetry and for those seeking God who have an attraction to poetry, crafted in classical and contemporary lines.

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.
