Vibrant : Developing A Deep And Abiding Joy For All Seasons (Audio CD)
$29.99
Have you ever met someone who possessed a quiet radiance so rich, so dynamic, that you ached for more, someone whose presence is so compelling you feel refreshed by a single conversation with them? If you know someone like this, you anticipate your times together. You realize their joy is contagious, their peace is deep, and their compassion is engaging.
Such people are “vibrant.” Regardless of their socioeconomic status, their education, their marital status, or their health, these people are determined to live joyfully, seeing each obstacle as an opportunity for growth. The vibrant individual’s persona is attached to their convictions rather than their circumstances.
Author Carol Burton McLeod believes everyone can choose to be Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons-and such a life begins by emulating Jesus. His life was filled with challenges and yet people were drawn to Him. Every character trait that we are called to embrace, every action of kindness or love, and each word of compassion or tenderness is a telling reflection of Christ within us. We are called to be a vibrant show-and-tell of what God is able to accomplish through one ordinary person.
Carol explores what it means to follow Jesus in a world filled with disappointment, rejection, and discouragement. And she provides gentle encouragement and suggestions from Scripture to help us do just that.

Follower : Becoming More Than Just A Fan Of Jesus
$12.99Jesus calls us not to cheer for him but to chase after him.
Based on his bestseller Not a Fan, author and pastor Kyle Idleman reveals that Jesus calls us not to cheer for him but to chase after him. It is becoming a completely committed follower of Jesus.
With a frankness that many readers are not likely to hear in church or Sunday school class, Kyle offers an invitation to take an honest look at one’s relationship with Jesus. His call to follow may seem radical. It is more about repentance than forgiveness, more about surrender than salvation, more about brokenness than happiness, and more about death than about life. It’s not a comfortable and reassuring path. It’s certainly not about just being a fan of Jesus, sitting on the sidelines cheering for his cause. It’s about being a true follower where a person lives into their new identity in Christ.

Love Stories Of The Bible Speak Workbook (Workbook)
$18.99DISCOVER GOD’S UNCONDITIONAL LOVE THROUGH LOVE STORIES IN THE BIBLE
The most foundational truth in Scripture is God’s unconditional, unending, unfailing love for His people. Throughout its pages, we find the breadth of love expressed in the forms of friendship, family, romance, marriage, and more. From the first love between Adam and Eve, to the bonding love of Joseph and Mary, to the deep, meaningful friendships like that of David and Jonathan, the Bible takes us on a journey of discovering how God’s unconditional love is expressed.
This workbook based on New York Times bestselling author Shannon Bream’s book, The Love Stories of the Bible Speak, walks you through thirteen biblical lessons on romance, friendship, and faith in various stories across the Bible where you’ll get a front row seat into the many challenges these men and women faced. As you explore these stories of love, you’ll be encouraged to renew your love for others and for God.
You will discover how God’s love is often very different from ours, turning our assumptions about life, relationships, and each other upside down. Each relationship focused on in this workbook displays similar obstacles to the ones we face today. Many encountered difficult conflicts and unspeakable challenges. Yet together they remind us that we are designed to both love and to be loved.
Each lesson includes four components:
REFLECT invites you to read key moments of each relationship in the Bible and see how the stories of characters in Scripture resemble your own experiences.
CONNECT asks you to consider how our Heavenly Father works throughout the Old and New Testaments to show us how he responds to our relational needs and design.
REVEAL provides an opportunity to identify specific ways in which we receive and offer love to others as well as receive and demonstrate love from God.
PRAY asks you to prayerfully consider how the love stories throughout Scripture tie into how God is challenging and growing your relationships today.

Life In The Negative World
$26.99Original price was: $26.99.$22.99Current price is: $22.99.Learning how to live in today’s new social and cultural environment will require examination, trial and error, and adaptation over time. But there are ways to live with integrity and follow Christ today, even in a negative world.
From a peak in church attendance in the mid-20th century, Christianity has been on a trajectory of decline in the United States. Once positive toward Christianity and Christian moral teachings, cultural shifts toward the mid-90s led many to adopt a more neutral tone toward the Christian faith, seeing it as one option among many in a pluralistic public square. Today, however, Christianity is viewed negatively, and being known as a Christian often means a lower social status in elite society. Christian morality is openly repudiated and viewed as a threat to the new moral order.
In Life in the Negative World, author Aaron M. Renn looks at the lessons from Christian cultural engagement over the past 70 years and suggests specific strategies for churches, institutions, and individuals to live faithfully in the “negative” world–a culture opposed to Christian values and teachings. And since there is no one-size-fits-all solution, living as a follower of Christ in the new, negative world and being missionally engaged will require a diversity of strategies.
