Silence The Lion
$22.99
This book is the testimony of my husband’s freedom from twenty years of substance abuse addiction in one day. It is unique in that it is not just a testimony, nor is it just a guide instructing people struggling with addiction on what they should do to see freedom. Instead, it is a mesh of our story interwoven with reflections and reflection questions throughout the book. It is designed to tell our story and prompt readers to draw their own conclusions through self-reflection without simply telling them what to do.
Halfway through the book, addiction is named “The Lion,” with references to Daniel in the den of lions, and the reader begins to see addiction as the enemy sent from Satan, allowing them to separate themselves from their identity as an addict. The remainder of the book continually references addiction as “The Lion.” Each chapter is titled from an excerpt of a biblical scripture immediately following it.
The goal in writing the book is for those struggling with substance abuse to be able to come to freedom by: Discovering where their true identity lies, determining who the enemy is, surrendering to Christ, removing shame and guilt, tearing down the hardened walls around their hearts, cutting off any bitter roots, casting off unforgiveness, stepping into their new identities, and silencing the lies of the enemy: The Lion.

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.

Simply Jesus : A New Vision Of Who He Was What He Did And Why He Matters
$15.99In Simply Jesus, bestselling author and leading Bible scholar N.T. Wright summarizes 200 years of modern Biblical scholarship and models how Christians can best retell the story of Jesus today. In a style similar to C.S. Lewis’s popular works, Wright breaks down the barriers that prevent Christians from fully engaging with the story of Jesus. For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright’s Simply Jesus offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how Christians should relate to him today.
