In Search Of The Lost
$20.00Add to cartIn 2003, a story shook the Anglican world in general and Anglican monastic life in particular. On August 8th, seven members of The Melanesian Brotherhood, an Anglican order of Christian brothers living a simple and prayerful life and known for their peace work throughout the South Pacific and beyond, were brutally murdered as a result of ethnic conflict in the Solomon Islands. They had been taken hostage five months earlier.
The Melanesian Brotherhood is the largest Anglican religious community in the world with over 300 brothers and more than 300 novices and has received a United Nations award for its peace work. From 1990-2005, Richard Carter, a British priest, was tutor, chaplain to the Melanesian Brotherhood, eventually becoming a brother himself. This extraordinary, powerful and moving book is based on his diaries from that agonizing time for the Community. It tells the harrowing story of the loss of seven good, young and holy lives and the aftermath of those deaths. It tells the story of individuals and a community trying to make sense of faith in the face of fierce conflict and tragedy. It recounts the challenge of living out the Christian faith when confronted by great fear and loss. It is thus a story for everyman. Rowan Williams writes a preface.

Dynamic Of Faith Words And The Miracle Power Of God
$12.49Add to cartThe subject of faith is by far one of the most preached and taught of all our Christian doctrines in the church today. Yet despite God’s mandate for his children to walk by faith, it is widely acknowledged among both clergy and layman that too many of God’s children still have difficulty mastering this fundamental concept, which by default leaves them falling short of the victory, blessings, and benefits pledged to them by God through Christ and the New Covenant.

Here, the subject of faith is revisited to present a simple, comprehensive study with fresh revelation to give every believer a clearer concept of how faith works and how the word of faith can be confidently implemented in their everyday lives to bring abundant success in every area of life.

Touch One : How Much Is One Soul Worth To God
$23.99Add to cartTouch One is about Chris Schimel’s experience with a dropin client while Chris was pastor of a church in Northridge, California. This client was “on the edge” from stresses at his job. The counseling experience, based on a true story, lasted more than two years. Chris is forced to focus his attention upon the bizarre antics of this unique visitor, seemingly on the verge of a nervous breakdown. You will feel this strange caller’s pain as he unfolds his tragic circumstances. Chris finds himself caught in the tension between successfully growing a church and feeling compelled to help this one lost soul who keeps showing up at the most inconvenient times. But as Chris reluctantly submits to these awkward visits from this mysterious individual, God teaches him lessons about true success, big and growing ministries, and reaching the masses, as opposed to touching “the one.” Touch One is a moving story that entertains while it gently pierces the soul, changes the heart, and heals emotional wounds. Its biblical soundness is unmistakable, and the honesty it exudes will rejuvenate the spirit.

The author’s honesty and perspectives on the lessons God taught him through the experiences he shares are refreshing, uplifting, and eye opening. Other writings may broach similar ideas, but none addresses these subjects as directly and with such brutal honesty as this book does. Furthermore, Touch One is a fluid story helping to make it and the lessons it contains readable and entertaining to a wide audience beyond pastors and ministry leaders. Through the circulation of Chris’ experience, it is hoped that God might impress upon His church what His heart is concerning ministry motives. This book contains a message that is crucial for the church culture of our day.

Into The Bible Every Day 1

Inspirational Messages From God To Us
$12.49Add to cartDear Readers: Inspirational Messages from God to Us is a book filled with words of emotions to describe everyday life. In this book you will find stories or events that take place to explain things that are happening in this generation today. These messages are assembled together as parables similar to those Jesus used while talking to his disciples. A parable is nothing more than a brief story that makes a comparison or an illustration from everyday life to describe a meaning, while using natural physical things to convey the spiritual truth. In other words, the physical (natural things) are used to help those who can’t understand the spiritual realm of God. In reading these Inspirational Messages, we hope that you will find them to be encouraging to you while you run this race, and in the end you will find eternal life. May God bless and keep you.

Shattering Sound Of Amazing Grace
$12.95Add to cartDavid J. Schlafer, acclaimed preacher, teacher, and writer, weaves words and ideas like a Celtic braid. He places us in the company of some of the people who appear in the Gospel of John-Nicodemus, the woman at the well, the woman taken in adultery, Martha and Mary, the man born blind, the bride and groom at Cana-and examines them in two unusual sources of light:
*The classic line from C. S. Lewis: Every idea we form of God, God must, in mercy, shatter.
*John Newton’s hymn Amazing Grace .
Schlafer offers refreshment: He helps us refresh our ideas of God. He refreshes the meaning of the well-worn phrase Amazing Grace, giving it new life and urgency. He refreshes our grasp of John’s Gospel by centering on Jesus’ interpersonal encounters rather than on the famous discourses, which are too often considered only in the abstract and at the expense of the dramas John narrates. The Shattering Sound of Amazing Grace is an inspired meeting with Jesus and the people of John’s Gospel.
