Oracion (Revised) – (Spanish) (Revised)
$19.99
Que es la oracion? Como opera? Y el punto mas importante: Sirve para algo? En teoria, la oracion es el hecho humano esencial, el punto de contacto mas valioso entre nosotros y el Dios del universo. En la practica, la oracion a menudo es frustrante, confusa y llena de misterios. La Oracion Hace alguna diferencia? explora el lugar misterioso donde Dios y el ser humano se encuentran y se relacionan.
Yancey comparte sus inquietudes y plantea preguntas tales como:
* Estara escuchando Dios?
* Por que habria de interesarse Dios en mi?
* Si Dios conoce todas las cosas, que sentido tiene la oracion?
* Por que las respuestas a la oracion parecen ser tan arbitrarias y caprichosas?
* Por que a veces Dios parece estar tan cerca de mi y otras veces tan lejano?
* Como puedo hacer para orar mas?
He descubierto que el proposito mas importante de la oracion tal vez sea dejar que Dios nos ame, dice Yancey. Este libro nos anima a orar a Dios el Padre, que sabe que nos deparara el futuro, que conoce nuestras fibras mas intimas, y que nos invita a consolidar nuestra relacion eterna con el por medio de la oracion.
Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference?
What is prayer? How does it work? And more importantly, does it work? In theory, prayer is the essential human act, a priceless point of contact between us and the God of the universe. In practice, prayer is often frustrating, confusing, and fraught with mystery. La Oracion Hace alguna diferencia? is an exploration of the mysterious intersection where God and humans meet and relate.
Writing as a fellow pilgrim, Yancey explores such questions as:
* Is God listening?
* Why should God care about me?
* If God knows everything, what’s the point of prayer?
* Why do answers to prayer seem so inconsistent and capricious?
* Why does God seem sometimes close and sometimes far away?
* How can I make prayer more satisfying?
“I have found that the most important purpose of prayer may be to let ourselves be loved by God,” says Yancey. La Oracion Hace alguna diferencia? encourages us to pray to God the Father who sees what lies ahead of us, knows what lies within us, and who invites us into an eternal partnership-through prayer. Also available: unabridged audio CD.

James : Tired Tested Torn And Full Of Faith
$19.99In this five-week study, we will walk verse by verse through the book of James to compare the teaching of James with the teaching Jesus did in the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5-7 and the instruction of Solomon that we find in Proverbs. Examining the themes of what an active, faith-filled life looks like from before Christ, during Jesus’ time on earth, and after Christ, we see how Scripture points us to honor God by not only hearing, but actively living a life of faith.
As we dig into the Word of God, readers will be encouraged to reclaim their faith every step of the way. Micah will give action steps to take each day to move from the place of pain, challenge, or passive living to a faith-filled life. Readers will gain a fresh perspective of what it means to live full of faith when they feel tired, tested, and torn.

Dont Follow Your Heart
$22.99Why chasing after expressive individualism, experiences, and desires always fails to deliver on its promise of happiness.
Today we are told to be true to ourselves, look within for answers, and follow our hearts. But when we put our own happiness first, we experience record-breaking levels of aimlessness, loneliness, depression, and anxiety. Self-centeredness always fails to deliver the fulfillment we’re seeking.
In Don’t Follow Your Heart, Thaddeus Williams debunks the “ten commandments of self-worship,” which include popular propaganda, like:
*#liveyourbestlife: Thou shalt always act in accord with your chief end–to glorify and enjoy yourself forever.
*#followyourheart: Thou shalt obey your emotions at all costs.
*#yolo: Thou shalt pursue the rush of boundary-free experience.
Williams builds a case that this type of self-worship is not authentic, satisfying, or edgy. Instead, its rehashing what is literally humanity’s oldest lie. He calls on a new generation of mavericks and renegades, heretics who refuse to march in unison with the self-obsessed herd. With a fascinating blend of theology, philosophy, science, psychology, and pop culture, Williams points us to a life beyond self-defeating dogmas to a more meaningful life centered on Someone infinitely more interesting, satisfying, and awesome than ourselves.
Featuring stories from Carl Trueman, Joni Eareckson Tada, J.P, Moreland, Josh McDowell, Alisa Childers, and more.

Emotionally Healthy Discipleship
$26.99Pastors and church leaders want to see lives changed by the gospel. They work tirelessly to care for people, initiate new programs and ministries, preach new sermon series, and keep up with the latest trends. Sadly, it would seem that much of this effort is not resulting in deeply changed disciples.
Why? Because many churches are unknowingly operating from a shallow discipleship that allows people to recycle the same problems year after year. Church goers are increasingly passive with lives not distinct from the culture. People are not able to integrate anger and sadness. Many are defensive and incapable of revealing their own weaknesses. Church leaders desperately need a better way of teaching people what it means to follow Jesus in a transformative way.
In Emotionally Healthy Discipleship, bestselling author Pete Scazzero combines three decades of wisdom with hard lessons from his own ministry journey. He lays out what is required for church leaders to multiply deeply-changed people who are growing in relationship with God, themselves and others.
Scazzero begins with four beneath-the-surface, systemic gaps that undermine serious discipleship. He provides a clear vision for a church culture that deeply changes lives and then practically unpacks the seven biblical marks of emotionally healthy discipleship:
1. Learn to Be Before You Do
2. Follow the Crucified, Not the Americanized, Jesus
3. Receive the Gift of Limits
4. Befriend Suffering and Loss
5. Break the Power of the Past
6. Practice the Presence of People
7. Lead Out of Brokenness and VulnerabilityFinally, he lays out practical steps for you to create an emotionally healthy discipleship culture that actually has the power to change the world.
