Christ Of The 40 Days
$15.99Add to cartThe tragic events of Good Friday did not signal the end of Jesus Christ’s ministry to His disciples-far from it. Easter morning was the beginning of a unique and important portion of Jesus’ ministry on earth. For the next forty days, until His glorious ascension to heaven, Jesus appeared many times to His disciples. During this precious period, Jesus taught His followers about the requirements of discipleship, His own divine nature, and the power they would soon need to expand the kingdom of God “into all the world” (Mark 16:15). Today, we can experience that same power to accomplish God’s work.
Even more important, those forty days provide us with the promise of His everlasting presence, for Jesus did not say, “I will be with you,” as one who has to go away and come back again, but “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world” (Matthew 28:20), as a presence that is never to be withdrawn.

Heaven And The Angels
$15.99Add to cartH. A. Baker’s first book, Visions Beyond the Veil, was a vivid account of the heavenly visions a group of homeless Chinese boys received from God, and the miracles that followed. Until that time, Baker knew little about the biblical doctrines of heaven and angels. In Baker’s own words, “Because I had been in such ignorance of the life of the world to come, and because these revelations have so transformed my own life and my work on the mission field, I felt led to gather the best of the things that had come to my knowledge in one way and another and to put the material in book form.”
The result, Heaven and the Angels, is a thorough collection of biblical teachings on the afterlife, including discourses on…
The New Jerusalem
The inhabitants of heaven
Our perfect future bodies
The duties of angels, on heaven and on earth
How believers can participate with heaven todayHeaven is more than something to be experienced after we die. The miraculous power of God and the ministry of angels are available for every believer, if we will allow our eyes to be opened and our minds to be enlightened.

Evangelize Or Fosselize
$14.99Add to cartTruly, there is nothing so tragic, so hard, and so icy as a fossilized church or Christian. Nothing can keep the Christian warm, fresh, and alive like evangelism. Soulwinning is a safeguard against a dead, barren orthodoxy. That the church’s expansion depends upon her evangelism is the testimony of the ages. Failing to save, she cannot survive. A lack of evangelism, ultimately, will lead to extinction.
Renowned Bible teacher Dr. Herbert Lockyer examines the call, the methods, the obstacles, and the challenge of bringing the gospel to a lost and hurting world. When the Holy Spirit enables men and women of God to offer their lives for the sake of the Lord Jesus and to turn the world upside down, it is the greatest adventure of all time!

No Easy Catch
$15.99Add to cartShae Carmen has sworn off men, at least for the time being. A successful news anchor and local celebrity in St. Louis, Missouri, she was mortified when it came out that her pastor boyfriend was having an affair-with Carmen. She was the “other woman,” and she’d rather go the rest of her life without dating than be deceived again.
Rahn Maxwell considers himself a Christian, but it takes an attempted carjacking to awaken the professional baseball player to his lapsed spiritual state. Hounded by reporters for interviews on his close call, he makes the acquaintance of Shae Carmen and immediately determines to win her. She’s no easy catch, so he pursues her with devotion and honor, until she finally agrees to date him. Life is like a dream come true.
Dream turns into nightmare when an investigation into allegations of performance-enhancing drugs among some MLB players threatens to expose a dark part of Rahn’s past-and, worse, to disrupt his relationship with Shae. With his reputation on the line, Rahn must decide the price he’s willing to pay to make Shae his teammate for life.

When Helping Hurts

Emphasizing the poverty of both heart and society, this book exposes the need that every person has and how it can be filled. The reader is brought to understand that poverty is much more than simply a lack of financial or material resources and that it takes much more than donations and handouts to solve the problem of poverty.

Children Are Not The Centre Of The World.Additional Info
Numerous books set out to help Christian parents in the challenging mission of raising their children well-so what’s different about this one? Well, the answer’s in the title! It’s not about how the gospel fits into Christian family life, but how family life should fit into the gospel-God’s greatest purpose for this universe, achieved in Christ.Many books aim to raise up competent, balanced parents and well-trained, well-rounded children. But Tim Chester and Ed Moll focus on families growing God-knowing, Christ-confessing, grace-receiving, servant-hearted, mission-minded believers-adults and children together.
Christian families should be about…
– not just making good citizens but also church planters, missionaries, reformers, servants and evangelists
– not just learning about God but also showing Him to others;
– not just controlling behaviour but also changing the heart;
– not just parents and children, but being an integral part of the wider church family.In twelve concise chapters, Gospel-Centered Family takes us through the major Bible principles for family life, challenging us to give up our ‘respectable’ middle-class idols, and to become the distinctively different people that God, through His gospel, calls us to be.

Orthodoxy
$14.99Add to cartIn response to G. K. Chesterton’s book Heretics, H. G. Wells said, “I will begin to worry about my philosophy…when Mr. Chesterton has given us his.” And that is what Chesterton set out to do. But, like any good theorist, he truly believed that he could not undertake this task without first articulating what he did not agree with. Having completed this act and receiving many responses to it, he set out to articulate the philosophy he had come to believe.
In a personal way, Chesterton uses “a set of mental pictures” to describe his journey in discovering the truth. Among his key points is the role of reason and fantasy in helping him to discover true orthodoxy. They led him to see that this was not a product of chance but was fashioned by a divine Creator. His timeless wisdom is relevant to the struggles of many Christians today.
Chesterton was surprised to find that what he discovered about orthodoxy was not unique to him at all; rather, it had been passed down through many generations. And he admitted, after much struggle and in much humility, “I will not call it my philosophy, for I did not make it. God and humanity made it; and it made me.”

Further ReadingAdditional Info
Most of what the Bible has to say about marriage does not come flagged up under a heading of “marriage”. It’s not just the famous “marriage passages” that shape a gospel-centred marriage, but the whole Bible-story of God’s good creation, humanity’s wicked rebellion and God’s gracious redemption.To understand why marriages struggle-as they all do-we need to understand the nature of our sin. To make marriages work, we need to understand how to apply the truth about God and His salvation.
This study guide on Christian marriage focuses on how the Gospel shapes the practical realities of everyday life. Author Tim Chester lifts the lid on many of the common pressure points that modern couples face, and shows how a proper understanding of the Gospel can shape a response.

Living As Salt And Light
$16.99Add to cart“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.”
-Matthew 5:13-14From best-selling author and Bible teacher Derek Prince comes a message that was near and dear to his heart: our responsibility as Christians to have an impact on the nations in which we live. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus laid out three important facts: (1) as believers, we are to be the salt of the earth; (2) we are to be the light of the world; and (3) a city set on a hill that cannot be hidden. The world is watching us; we cannot hide. As salt and light, Christians should be a source of both flavor and illumination that influences the world around them.
Unfortunately, many believers have not even begun to think about this. In this ground-breaking book, Derek Prince provides timely teaching on how to…
*Take spiritual initiative in your area of influence
*Utilize the weapon of prayer more effectively
*Understand the power of praise and testimony
*Wage spiritual warfare and defeat the schemes of the devil
*Become history changers for a better worldAs Christians, we have a strategic position in our world. And, we have within our grasp the means to change the course of events in our cities and nations.

Making Work Work (Student/Study Guide)
$8.99Add to cartMost of us spend most of our waking hours at work. It takes up most of our energy and often most of our emotions. It is at times really fulfilling, and at other times utterly frustrating. It keeps a roof over our heads and food on our tables… but is there any more to work than that?
Christians can feel that what they do Monday to Friday is irrelevant to their faith; or, worse, gets in the way of them living out their faith. Others who don t go to work in an office or factory can feel that they are of little worth.
Could work should work be anything more than something to go to, make money at, and return home from?
The Bible s answer is: Yes! Whether you go out to work, or are a parent whose work is at home… whether you re out of work, starting your first job, running a company, or retired… these eight studies will show you, excite you and challenge you with God s perspective on working in His world. -

Leader’s GuideAdditional Info
Even today, Jesus is still a figure of intense interest and admiration for millions. But then there’s His church. Church is a boring topic for most, and a reluctantly fulfilled duty for many.And we can understand why. Churches say they have the best news in the world, that they have the answer to our problems, that they are God’s embassies on earth; and yet churches are made up of people like you and me, who are grumpy, irritable, unfaithful, selfish, and worse.
And as that is sadly true of churches today, so it was of the church in Corinth. It was young, it was full of life, and it was just as full of problems. What would God say to such a challenging church? What did they need to be excited by, to listen to, to learn?
Use this seven-study guide to open up the first nine chapters of the letter of 1 Corinthians, to hear what God said to His church in Corinth, and what God still says to His church today.

Where Wisdom Begins

Drastically different from the frightful trembling we feel in response to a threatening person or dangerous situation, the “fear of the Lord” is a deep sense of reverence and awe of the One who created us, loves us, and saved us.
With comforting words of instruction, renowned Bible scholar Derek Prince explains…
*How the fear of the Lord differs from other types of fear
*How to gain wisdom and understanding, which are rooted in the fear of the Lord
*How to overcome pride in order to submit to Christ and to others

Seasons Of The Lord
$26.99Add to cartThis yearlong devotional combines four of Herbert Lockyer’s seasonal devotionals into one source, with devotions for each day of the year, complete with Scriptures and relevant reflections.
In these Bible-based meditations, Lockyer ponders the message God sends through the seasons to the hearts and souls of humanity. Seasons of the Lord is as multicolored as the leaves of autumn and as spiritually refreshing as the first day of spring.
“That life is made up of new beginnings is a truism we cannot escape as we enter the circle of another year. With two faces, one looking back and the other forward, we approach the opening month on our calendar. It signifies life and promise and seems to say to our hearts, ‘Grow along with me; the best is yet to be.’ This season…is a time of laughter and hope; so let us gladly receive this fresh beginning as it overtakes us with the gaiety of youth.”
-Herbert Lockyer
