Your Longing Has A Name
$18.99
Have you ever wondered who God had in mind before you came to be?
The longing for purpose is hardwired into the fabric of our souls. Why are we here? How should we live? What is life about anyway? How can our souls flourish in unsettled times? The tragedy is that every day more and more Americans feel powerless to answer these vital questions. According to recent polls, 65 percent of Americans feel as though the last year sent them into a crisis of identity; 68 percent feel defeated; 61 percent feel alone; and 48 percent feel hopeless.
In Your Longing Has a Name, author, speaker, pastor, and theologian Dominic Done casts a much-needed vision of hope, showing us who God says we already are: created, loved, and called by him to live out his dream for our lives.
Dominic paints a compelling picture of what this vision looks like, weaving together:
*a unique approach to understanding purpose and faith,
*fresh language designed for current times of crisis and spiritual uncertainty,
*spiritual formation that focuses less on rules-based legalism and more on identity in Christ,
*deeply moving personal stories, biblical insights, and relatable discussions on the human ache for meaning, as well as
*examples from history, literature, art, and culture.
Your Longing Has a Name is a perfect choice for those of us struggling to find purpose, seeking self-awareness, and looking for a way forward in our personal journeys and relationships with God.

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.
