Surrender Your Story
$27.99
Popular podcaster and self-proclaimed control freak Tara Sun shows how having everything under control is overrated–not to mention downright dangerous–and reveals the surprising, lifegiving alternative: only radical surrender to God brings the peace and fulfillment we yearn for.
Today’s culture is peddling a seductive promise, a message that bombards social media feeds and dominates bestseller lists: you can control your circumstances and achieve any goal through positive thinking, organization, and sheer force of will. But anyone who’s tried to white-knuckle their way to self-fulfillment has discovered what lies on the other side of this supposedly empowering message: frustration, disappointment, and exhaustion.
Tara knows what it’s like to be obsessed with control–all under the guise of the supposed virtues of being self-sufficient, organized, and high achieving. When a battle with severe chronic illness demolished her illusions of control, Tara embarked on a journey of discovering the antidote to the burdensome and ultimately empty myth of control: surrender to the God who cares for us and has an infinitely better blueprint for a life filled with joy, peace, and meaning. Readers will:
*identify how the false promises of control and self-sufficiency have warped their view of themselves, their hopes, and their purpose;
*learn to trust God–in the big events and the small details of their lives;
*discover practical steps and strategies for letting go of control and moving forward in faith, even in the face of setbacks and disappointments; and
*be inspired by examples from Tara’s life and from the Bible of the strength and purpose that comes through a lifestyle of surrender.
For all those who are exhausted from trying to control their lives and disappointed by their unreached plans, Surrender Your Story is a welcome lifeline that opens readers’ eyes to the beauty of a life surrendered to the Master Planner.

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.
