Rejoicing In Lifes Melissa Moments
$19.95
What is a “Melissa moment”? I mean those experiences now and then that bring clarity and conviction and assurance in the midst of situations otherwise riddled by ambiguity, ambivalence, confusion, and uncertainty. I mean those bright and shining moments which bring illumination and order into the midst of darkness and chaos. They are those times when we come to know who we are, what we believe, what we trust, and to what we are committed. A “Melissa moment” is any reordering of life that restores equilibrium and perspective, that refreshes and renews, that gets us back on track. (from the sermon “Rejoicing In Life’s ‘Melissa Moments’ “)
In this warm, insightful collection of sermons, eminent theologian Kenneth Cauthen brings the simple clarity of a “Melissa moment” to the complex problems that daily confront us. The book derives its title from an incident where Cauthen’s daughter Melissa sparked a particularly moving epiphany, and it’s an apt description because the messages combine a profound understanding of scripture with poignant stories about real people and their struggles, sufferings, and moral challenges. Though much of Cauthen’s other work is academic in tone, these intensely personal meditations deal with profound moral and theological issues in the context of everyday life. Rejoicing In Life’s “Melissa Moments” affirms our faith and the goodness of God in the face of the modern world’s anxieties, terrors, and threats. It will make you think — but more importantly, it will also touch your heart.

Prayer
$18.00Renowned pastor and New York Times bestselling author of The Songs of Jesus Timothy Keller explores the power of prayer.
Christians are taught in their churches and schools that prayer is the most powerful way to experience God. But few receive instruction or guidance in how to make prayer genuinely meaningful. In Prayer, renowned pastor Timothy Keller delves into the many facets of this everyday act.
With his trademark insights and energy, Keller offers biblical guidance as well as specific prayers for certain situations, such as dealing with grief, loss, love, and forgiveness. He discusses ways to make prayers more personal and powerful, and how to establish a practice of prayer that works for each reader.
Dr. Keller’s previous books have sold more than one million copies. His Redeemer Presbyterian Church is not only a major presence in his home base of New York, it has also helped to launch more than two hundred fifty other churches in forty-eight cities around the world. His teachings have already helped millions, the majority of whom pray regularly. And with Prayer, he’ll show them how to find a deeper connection with God.
