$19.99Add to cartAll of us are recovering from something. Whether it’s an addiction, a painful incident from our past, or a daily challenge just to get by in this world, something is holding us back from the promised-land life God wants for us.
Real recovery isn’t a one-time event or a process that fits into twelve steps or a preset length of time. Uncovering how to live free of what holds you back is a lifelong journey, and one that is best traveled with others.
The Uncovery Devotional: Rethinking Recovery One Day at a Time will help you take those steps toward a better, healthier, happier you. The authors, George A. Wood and Brit Eaton, know that battles with addiction, mental health, suicidal thoughts, and past trauma cannot be won overnight. They’ve been in your shoes. And they provide the love, commitment, and compassion that will help you uncover and heal the bottom-line issue that causes you to struggle in the first place.
Each month follows a theme, such as reflection, relationship, and reconciliation, while each day provides a short Scripture and prayer.
Wild opportunities for hope, healing, and transformation exist for you in the Christian recovery space because you’re not working to recover an old, broken life–you’re going after a brand new one.
You’ll discover the truth about who you really are and Whose you really are so that you can reach deep levels of healing and deliverance.

Appendix 3: Some Words From Inside The CaveAdditional Info
When Mark Meynell spoke in a central London church, more than 1,500 people hung on to his every word. What they couldn’t have known was that their minister was terrified of being laid bare in public.Fear of shame and exposure is crippling, even if, as in Mark’s case, the sufferer is innocent. And it’s one of the most devastating elements of depression, although certainly not the only one.
Mark invites us into the darkness of his cave. We relive significant moments from boarding school, Uganda, Berli, and London. We visit the Psalms, Job, and The Pilgrim’s Progress.
If you’re after neat conclusions and a fair-weather faith, this is not for you. This book serves up gritty reality and raw honesty, but also the heartfelt hope that the author’s brokenness “can somehow contribute to another person’s integration” and “inspire their clinging while beset by darkness or fog or blizzards.”

Breaking Toxic Soul Ties
$15.99Add to cartGoing through this world in relationship with other people inevitably creates connections in our inner being called soul ties. When these relationships are loving, supportive, and nurturing, positive soul ties are created. But if the relationships become abusive or manipulative, or cause rejection, they can create a toxic brokenness within the soul that we carry with us, even long after the relationship ends. If these toxic inner soul ties are not broken, we will experience failure, fractured relationships, and even health problems throughout life.
In Breaking Toxic Soul Ties, Tom Brown describes his own story of rejection and the process of inner healing he experienced. He helps you to identify and diagnose toxic relationships as he breaks down the difference between positive and negative soul ties. He also shows why toxic soul ties develop and how they can only be broken by a process of inner healing through confession, forgiveness, and prayer. The truth is, unless your self-image is firmly rooted in the truth of your identity in Christ, you will always be susceptible to bad soul ties. Tom Brown describes the way for you to move forward in life and leave pain and brokenness behind for good!

Labratology : Lost And Found In The Cedar Shavings
$12.00Add to cart“A lab rat’s study of man, of God, and of himself.”
For centuries, lessons learned from the lab rat have advanced our understanding of ourselves and the world we live in.
Imagine the world under an enormous microscope and life as a behavioral study in which our actions and reactions are analyzed. Are we no more than lab rats, unwittingly participating in a “grand experiment” to determine why we exhibit certain behaviors?
Legion is a lab rat born into a study of addictions. Regarded as “the chosen one who will deliver us” by the elder rats, Legion explores the worlds of rats and men and soon discovers that addiction and despair are not the exclusive property of the scientists (Whitecoats) or the cage. Adventures ensue and Legion develops a resolve to free his fellow rats–in body and in spirit.
This powerful “allegory of the cage” reminds us that freedom from addiction cannot be found in the study of men or rats alone but in the truths of God’s Word and His perfect plan for our lives.

Grace For The Afflicted
$25.00Add to cartWhy has the church struggled in ministering to those with mental illnesses? Each day men and women diagnosed with mental disorders are told they need to pray more and turn from their sin. Mental illness is equated with demonic possession, weak faith, and generational sin. As both a church leader and a professor of psychology and behavioral sciences, Michael S. Stanford has seen far too many mentally ill brothers and sisters damaged by well-meaning believers who respond to them out of fear or misinformation rather than grace. Grace for the Afflicted is written to educate Christians about mental illness from both biblical and scientific perspectives. Stanford presents insights into our physical and spiritual nature and discusses the appropriate role of psychology and psychiatry in the life of the believer. Describing common mental disorders, Stanford probes what science says and what the Bible says about each illness. Consistent with DSM-5 diagnoses, this revised and expanded edition is thoroughly updated with new material throughout, including eight new chapters that cover bipolar disorderstrauma- and stressor-related disordersdementiacerebrovascular accidents (stroke)traumatic brain injurysuicidea holistic approach to recoverymental health and the church

Moral Injury : Restoring Wounded Souls
$21.99Add to cartIf we can share our burdens, we can bear them. If we can bear them, we can change the circumstances that brought them about. In a world where anything goes, people have a hard time deciding what is right and what is wrong. Pastors have a hard time helping people discern right and wrong because the church’s theological language of sin and redemption have so little currency and even less cultural relevancy. How can pastors help people deal with their feelings of guilt, shame, and responsibility when most people don’t believe in sin and have a limited or “flexible” moral framework? People need help assessing moral alternatives, reconciling what they have done with what they think is right, recovering from burdens of guilt and shame, and imagining moral options to serve the common good. It is the call of pastors, chaplains, and other spiritual caregivers to help these people move from moral injury to pardon and, eventually, to sustained recovery and resilience-in essence this book will help pastors reclaim their pastoral tasks of soul care and moral guidance without succumbing to the temptation of moralizing. Using vivid examples, the author will look at how various religious communities seek, promote, and achieve personal wholeness and realize the common good. This understanding will inform pastors, so that they can help their congregants and communities become vital agents in a sea of, often, conflicting moral voices. The book will provide resources for identifying core assets, and how to assess the various codes and moral claims interacting within the kaleidoscopic climate in which we live. Drawing upon neuroscience, narrative spirituality, and collaborative communal engagement, the author gives tools to aid pastors, chaplains, and spiritual caregivers ameliorate the distress caused by dissonance and resulting in moral injury. The book will also provide resources for helping people bear the burdens of moral responsibility and for navigating the sometimes unbearable consequences of particular moral actions. The author concludes with suggestions for helping people suffering from injury to their integrity from misdeeds they endure, either as a result of their own actions or from those actions of others, move toward sustained resilience and more mature moral imagination.

Racing Toward Recovery
$17.99Add to cartAlaska Northwest Books
For the first time, Alaska musher and tribal leader Mike Williams shares his remarkable life story with veteran sports writer Lew Freedman. Williams is a man of many parts, a sports figure, a government figure, a leader of his people, a husband, a father, and a Native man with one foot firmly planted in the twenty-first century and another firmly planted in the roots of a culture that dates back 10,000 years in Alaska. Williams competed in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race fifteen times, and was once the only Yup’ik Eskimo musher, a symbol to all Natives around the state. Although he was never a top contender for the Iditarod title, he was a competitor whom everyone cheered because he resolved that to shed light on one of Alaska’s greatest threats to the health and future of its Native people, he would carry in his dog sled pages-pounds worth-of signatures of people who had pledged sobriety. A Yup’ik Eskimo, Williams saw firsthand how alcohol could devastate people as surely as if they had contracted a deadly flu: each of his brothers had succumbed to alcohol-related accidents, incidents, or illnesses. Williams describes how he recovered from his dependence on alcohol through religion, loved ones, and racing dogs. For many years Williams carried those sobriety pledges in his sled, focusing attention on a troubling, seemingly intractable problem. Williams gained national attention, being profiled by CNN, Sports Illustrated, and Good Morning America. Fellow Iditarod competitors have voted him “the most inspirational musher.” -

Grieving For A Smoke
$23.95Add to cart“How much do I miss cigarettes? How much do I miss cigarettes, you ask? Oh, I don’t know if you can believe this. I don’t know if you can understand this. But if you had a friend that you really loved, that you really, really, really loved, and that friend died, that’s how much I miss cigarettes.”
Smoking has been called the hardest habit/addiction to break. Many smokers who try to quit on their own fail, and most who attend a smoking cessation program go back to smoking shortly thereafter. Then there are others who are drawn back to smoking many years after quitting. Why?
Grieving for a Smoke addresses the psychological addiction to smoking. Although nicotine is addicting, the cognitive and emotional investment smokers have with smoking plays a major role in the challenge of walking away from the habit.
The book discusses a variety of reasons why smoking is highly significant to beginning smokers, what happens as smokers reinforce those reasons through continued smoking, and why smokers return to smoking after quitting.
If you have stopped smoking, tried to stop smoking, or have thought about stopping, this book will help you understand the various feelings that will bombard you as you say goodbye to cigarettes. By understanding how your mind will process this “loss,” you will be able to take control of your life and move through the various stages of grief to a brighter tomorrow.
This book is a must read before you quit and three months after you quit!

So You Failed And Your Brother Hates You
$16.99Add to cartThis message is for those who have suffered through some disappointing and disastrous moral failure, for those who are presently struggling through a hopeless, losing situation. Also, this book is for those who love someone who is suffering through the horrible aftermath of failure and who desperately seek a way to bring that dear one back to a place of hope, where they’ll desire to “live” again. There is real pain and real consequences of failure that must be faced and conquered, but for some, there is sometimes no motivation to try. Giving up is so much easier. My book addresses the main characters involved in a failing crisis: the person who falls, the person(s) who receive injury or offense from that person’s fall, and the folks who desire to help the failing person, but who do not know how. This book is ideal for pastors, counselors, concerned family, and…failures. If you failed, I won’t promise you “success” over failure, but, rather, I would like to help you simply believe in a new beginning for yourself. Let me share God’s desire and plan to restore you to a place where you truly desire to begin again.

Courage To Grieve

Each of us will face some loss, sorrow and disappointment in our lives, and The Courage to Grieve provides the specific help we need to enable us to face our grief fully and to recover and grow from the experience. Although the book emphasizes the response to the death of a loved one, The Courage to Grieve can help with every kind of loss and grief.
Judy Tatelbaum gives us a fresh look at understanding grief, showing us that grief is a natural, inevitable human experience, including all the unexpected, intense and uncomfortable emotions like sorrow, guilt, loneliness, resentment, confusion, or even the temporary loss of the will to live. The emphasis is to clarify and offer help, and the tone is spiritual, optimistic, creative and easy to understand. Judy Tatelbaum provides excellent advice on how to help oneself and others get through the immediate experience of death and the grief that follows, as well as how to understand the special grief of children. Particularly useful are the techniques for completing or “finishing” grief–counteracting the popular misconception that grief never ends. The Courage to Grieve shows us how to live life with the ultimate courage: not fearing death. This book is about so much more than death and grieving it is about life and joy and growth.

12 Stupid Things That Mess Up Recovery
$15.95Add to cartIt sounds so simple: Just stop drinking (or drugging or binging or gambling), and everything will be fine! The truth is, getting in touch with the behaviors and beliefs that sabotage sobriety requires focus and willingness. Holding on to the belief that life should be easy.

Dr. Allen Berger helps readers effectively assess their situation and take proactive steps toward lifelong recovery.

Any or all of these factors can sabotage recovery, but through basic self-awareness readers can move forward in building lives of contentment and fulfillment.

Little Red Book For Women
$15.95Add to cartThe Little Red Book remains a perennial best-seller to people in early recovery as well as to those who have well-established sobriety. While the text of the Little Red Book contains the basics of beginning a recovery program and understanding the Big Book (the founding text of Alcoholics Anonymous), readers invariably stumble over the archaic phrasing and naturally notice that the intended audience is assumed to be male. The Little Red Book For Women speaks directly to women of the 21st Century.
The original text of the Little Red Book is reprinted in this volume with annotated text appearing in the wider-than-usual margins of each page. The annotations, written by best-selling author Karen Casey, talk directly to women about the core issues that must be addressed to sustain a life of growth and daily serenity. Karen Casey addresses the feelings of emotional rawness that women experience, and she helps readers understand how to reach out to other recovering women. Alcoholism is an isolating, all-consuming condition for women, but Karen Casey shows readers how the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous can introduce women to new friends and healthy behaviors. Readers will find reassurance that a new world awaits them if they choose to step through the doors of AA and begin to embrace its program for rebuilding one’s life.

The message of this timely book is that you need not settle for a fear-driven form of freedom when an abundant life of victory in Christ is yours for the taking. The secret to victorious living is to tap into God’s great storehouse of mercy for one’s own needs, and then act as a conduit for that power, directing it toward the lives of others. Overcoming habitual sin is important, but real victory occurs when a person becomes a weapon in the hands of a powerful God against the legions of hell. That is living in victory! Win the battle for sexual purity. Lay down your weapons and become one!
