Listen With Your Heart
$16.49Add to cartThis is not simply another book of poems. To tell the truth, the author never really liked poetry much. The poems are divided into groups such as grace, faith, and praise, enabling them to be used as devotionals. Through the words of the Psalms and the language of the Scriptures, certain truths are revealed in the words of the poems. They are truths that all readers can know if they are open to the message that lies within. Through praise and honor to God, the words reveal their meaning through simple phrases. The writings will help you understand that during your happiest or saddest moments, and everything in between, keep your eyes focused on the Lord. Though the answer may not be clear, the destination is still the same. These words were revealed to an ordinary person who opened her heart to what God had to say. Nothing is “different” or “special” about her; she just learned to listen.

Down To Earth Spirituality
$28.00Add to cartIVP Print On Demand Title
Most books on spirituality focus on disciplines like prayer and Bible study. But this can mislead us into thinking that God can only be experienced when we are doing something “spiritual.” Apart from private devotional times or church on Sundays, God may seem distant and even irrelevant to our daily lives. R. Paul Stevens has a radically different view of Christian spirituality. True spirituality, he says, is down-to-earth–we encounter God in the ordinary, common stuff of everyday life. Taking his cue from the biblical story of Jacob, Stevens explores the Genesis narrative and uncovers how ordinary moments are made extraordinary, transformed by the presence of God in the midst of the mundane. Dreamer, schemer, worker and entrepreneur, Jacob embodies a multifaceted life of earthy passion and gritty spirituality. Jacob encounters the sacred not only through visions of ladders to heaven and mysterious wrestling matches with angles. Jacob also meets God at home and at work, at meals and in sleep, in solitude and in relationships. From birth to death, through every passage of life, Jacob sees God in the routine details of his everyday experience. “Everyday life is the spiritual discipline in which God continuously and graciously meets us,” Stevens writes. And in this book, Stevens helps us see that what appears commonplace on the surface actually has great spiritual significance. When we least expect it, God surprises us by re-enchanting our daily experience and making every moment an opportunity to experience his blessing.

Lords Life On Earth
$24.99Add to cartI have not revealed my name as the author of this book, because I’m only as a pencil in the hand of God. My wisdom and efforts wouldn’t have been correct. Many times I would have and did go with different events. God would wake me from a deep sleep and show me the right way, and I would have to go back and correct it. I am not an author or a writer, so there are probably mistakes in punctuation and spelling. To be truthful, I wouldn’t have taken on this task if God hadn’t kept dealing with me, for it has taken three years of my life. Not that it would have taken three years, but my abilities made it necessary. My qualification for doing this is studying God’s Word. I’ve also come from three generations of ministers, and my husband and son are ministers. This is God’s Word put in the correct order of events. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John have been combined at once, instead of comparing them. In this you can know the truth.

Jesus Heals The Brokenhearted
$24.99Add to cartThe author and her husband often visited their international relatives to share the good news of how the Lord Jesus Christ blessed their family in a special way. Then, like a lightning bolt, the news struck them of the tragic death of their son, David. He was in the prime of his life and the father of a young family. Why? Why would their loving God do this to them? The comforting answers came from the well-used Bible that David, “The Man with the Round Bible,” left behind: I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing. (2 Timothy 4:7-8 NKJV) In the writer’s family, David was the first in the race to reach the finish line. His joyful faith in God provides them with encouragement to follow on, looking forward to that Day, the day of the Lord’s appearing.

God Knows Caregiving Can Pull You Apart
$14.95Add to cart12 Chapters
Additional Info
But How to Keep It All Together?A great and courageous question! That’s what this book is all about. It’s for those who have crossed the threshold of “if” in regards to caregiving, and moved on now to the “how” of it.
Each chapter that follows focuses on a different way to “keep it together” while giving care to a loved one.
Included in each chapter are brief explanations about how a particular way might look or work for you, short quotes for inspiration, stories about how others have gone about it, and a number of exercises that you can use to pause and reflect, regroup, and expand your caregiving repertoire.
Because journaling in particular can be such a useful exercise for caregivers, and because its tools (paper, writing utensil) are compact and simple enough to be brought into almost any setting, most chapters will include at least one journaling suggestion. Many caregivers have told me that journaling-writing in a completely non-judgmental way about their lives and having one certain safe place to express their experience in all its complexity-gives them valuable insights that might not be gained as easily in any other way. All exercises, however, including journaling ideas, are only suggestions.
This is a book that need not be rushed through. In fact, it will probably serve you better if you wander through it slowly and thoughtfully, perhaps even in a spirit of well-deserved leisure. It might sit on your bedside table, get tucked alongside a favorite armchair, or travel with you in a purse, briefcase, or satchel. Its quotations and stories are intentionally brief, that they might easily be remembered for inspiration or sustenance at just the right moment.

Foxes Book Of Martyrs (Revised)
$18.99Add to cartIn 1563, John Foxe began a memorial of martyrs starting with Stephen, the first to die for the cause of Christ, and ending with the most recent martyrs of his day; those killed during Bloody Mary’s reign. He knew that dangers lay in forgetting the martyrs–in being insensitive to their struggles. Martyrdom is not a thing of the past; every day the Christian church is persecuted in countries all over the world. More Christians were afflicted in the twentieth century then all the past centuries combined. If the Church is not reminded of the cost to follow Christ, she will die. Be vulnerable to the cries of the martyrs. Let their courage, their faith, their love–touch your life. This updated version includes reports on modern martyrs of the 20th and 21st century, a full color timeline of selected events and people for historical reference, and has been carefully edited into Modern American English for today’s reader.

Earth Habitat : Eco Injustice And The Churchs Response
$21.00Add to cartThis single volume gathers theologians from around the world to address three pressing questions: How can Christianity and Christian churches rethink themselves and their roles in light of the endangered earth?

Psalms Part 2 And Lamentations
$53.99Add to cartPsalms, Part 2, and Lamentations is Volume XV of The Forms of the Old Testament Literature, a series that aims to present a form- critical analysis of every book and each unit in the Hebrew Bible. Fundamentally exegetical, the FOTL volumes examine the structure, genre, setting, and intention of the biblical literature in question. They also study the history behind the form-critical discussion of the material, attempt to bring consistency to the terminology for the genres and formulas of the biblical literature, and expose the exegetical procedures so as to enable students and pastors to engage in their own analysis and interpretation of the Old Testament texts.
This volume completes Erhard Gerstenberger’s widely praised discussion of the psalms literature begun in Volume XIV, and includes as well an admirable study of the book of Lamentations. Gerstenberger interprets the different kinds of songs and prayers that comprise the book of Psalms in light of their socio-historical settings and provides a concise formal and structural analysis of each biblical text based on an illuminating comparison with other ancient Near Eastern prayers and hymns. Seeing the biblical writings in relation to the social, cultic, religious, and theological conceptions of Israel’s neighoring peoples allows contemporary readers to better grasp the purpose and spiritual meaning of the psalms and Lamentations to the Jewish community that composed them.

Attitudes Of A Transformed Heart (Student/Study Guide)
$14.95Add to cartChristians and non-Christians alike often embrace a low view of God, and consequently a casual view of sin and Scripture. This low view of God is reflected in their attitudes about God, their attitudes about Scripture, and their attitudes of the heart. This book is about being “transformed” by the renewing of your mind” and not being “conformed to this world” (Romans 12:2).
Your Heart is who you are on the inside. It is what you think, your motives, and your desires. Our hearts have been conformed to the world’s way of thinking. Paul wrote, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” (Romans 12:2). It takes grace from God and work on our part for our minds to be transformed to think God-honoring thoughts and to truly discern unbiblical philosophies.
If you have a teachable heart, this book will help you truly honor God by what you think. Study questions are at the end of each chapter. -
