10. Entering The Laboratory: Testing The TruthAdditional Info
Can science explain everything?Many people think so. Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they assume. Religion is redundant.
Oxford Maths Professor and Christian believer Prof. John Lennox offers a fresh way of thinking about science and Christianity that dispels the common misconceptions about both. He reveals that not only are they not opposed, but they can and must mix to give us a fuller understanding of the universe and the meaning of our existence.

Ashamed Of The Gospel (Revised)
$22.99Add to cartIn the third edition of this top-selling book, John MacArthur challenges the seeker-sensitive, user-friendly, entertainment-oriented pragmatism that permeates the church today.
In the late 1800s, Charles Spurgeon warned that the church was drifting away from the purity of the gospel, candy-coating God’s Word rather than boldly proclaiming the truths of Scripture. As a result, Christianity’s influence in nineteenth-century England was severely weakened. One hundred years later, John MacArthur, troubled by the seeker-sensitive movement and an emphasis on pragmatism within the church, sounded the same alarm with the first edition of Ashamed of the Gospel.
In this newly revised and expanded edition, MacArthur gives an overview of developments in the seeker-sensitive movement since his book was first published in 1993. New material traces the line of pragmatic philosophy from the seeker-sensitive movement through the Emergent phenomenon, explaining why the latter is a philosophical heir of the former-and an even greater danger; chronicles the failure of pragmatic approaches to church growth; and emphasizes the importance of evangelicals solidly committed to biblical doctrine rising to positions of leadership.

Love Again Live Again
$16.99Add to cartEveryone gets their feelings hurt in life. As these wounds fester and compound throughout life, they become scars that affect our current relationships. Anyone suffering from a wounded heart feels a sense of separation from people, but the separation it creates from our heavenly Father is far worse for our mind, body and soul. “Broken Heart Syndrome” is a recognized medical condition. Tests show that the pain caused by relational stress or trauma releases stress hormones to circulate through the body. This causes the inner layers of the heart to shred, damaging the cardiac muscle and its capacity to pump blood throughout the body. The chest pain this can cause resembles a serious heart attack. Stents or angioplasty can treat blocked vessels, but modern medicine still has no quick fix for a broken heart. Joan Hunter reveals how to heal your heart from past hurts. To do this, you must be set free from the trauma of past relationships that prevent you from giving of yourself to those most important to you today. In doing so, you will also restore your most important relationship–the one with your heavenly Father.

Spirit Of Christ
$16.99Add to cartAndrew Murray’s writings were a cherished and vital part of his ministry in Africa. In this classic work, Murray stressed the importance of one truth: that the Holy Spirit must be known by every believer as an indwelling life of spiritual power. For Murray, this indwelling was to be accepted and treasured, until it became part of the consciousness of the believer: As the Holy Spirit possesses us, all of our lives, even the least things, must be surrendered to His leading. If God’s people can learn to wait on the Holy Spirit for divine leading and working, placing ourselves entirely at His disposal; then there will be manifestations of the Spirit’s power in the church such as the world has never known. In this book, Murray teaches on all aspects of the Holy Spirit, in the hope that God’s glory would begin to work through His church in powerful ways that would be a witness for all the world.

Engendered What Was God Thinking
$19.99Add to cartWhat was God thinking when He made man and woman, and what does that have to do with the roles they play? What did the Creator want marriage and family to look like?

Heavenly CityAdditional Info
Our cities are full of people, full of needs, and bursting with opportunity. The United Nations estimates that 60% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2030.Urban churches have the world on our doorstep. But if we want to see God work in our cities and through our churches, we need to pray.
That’s where this little book is designed to help. It will enlarge your vision and equip you to pray passionately and powerfully for the salvation and renewal of your city.
Each chapter takes a passage of Scripture and suggests 5 things to pray for an area of city life. Because when we pray in line with God’s priorities as found in his word, our prayers are powerful and effective (James 5 v 16)-and that’s a truly thrilling prospect.
This book has been developed in partnership with London City Mission and Redeemer City to City, and is flexible enough to be used whatever your urban context.
Use this book to:
* Guide your prayers during your personal quiet times
* Equip church members to pray meaningfully for your city
* Help you prepare expressive public intercessions for church
* Fuel your church prayer meeting
* Initiate and take part in a city-wide prayer movement -
Suelta Las Piedras – (Spanish)
$16.99Add to cartCuando una mujer sorprendida en el acto de adulterio fue echada a los pies de Jesus, la multitud sedienta de sangre lleno sus manos con piedras y exigio apedrearla hasta la muerte. Esta confrontacion aun retumba en nuestras vidas hoy. Seguramente podemos identificarnos con la verguenza de la mujer y su pecado expuesto. Desafortunadamente, tambien nos podemos identificar con la multitud hipocrita, deleitandose en el rechazo del “otro.” Pero podemos identificarnos totalmente con Cristo, el Dios que intervino para salvarla? Para aquellos que se han vuelto cautelosos con el cansado y a veces hasta ofensivo dogmatismo cristiano, Carlos Rodriguez puede ser la chispa que encienda las llamas de la fe en el verdadero Jesus. El lo dice como es, con un deseo de motivar a aquellos que se sienten dispuestos a cautivar el mundo a su alrededor, no por medio de agendas politicas o religiosas, sino mediante la gracia y el amor. Suelta las piedras invita a los seguidores de Jesus a soltar sus piedras religiosas y, con las manos abiertas, engranar en el gratificante estilo de vida de un amor al estilo de Jesus.
When a woman caught in the act of adultery was thrown down at Jesus’ feet, the bloodthirsty crowd filled their hands with rocks and demanded she be put to death. That confrontation still reverberates in our lives today. Surely we can relate with the shame of the woman and her exposed sin. Unfortunately, we can also relate with the hypocritical crowd, reveling in the rejection of “the other.” But can we fully relate with Christ, the God who intervened to save her?
For those who’ve become wary of tired and sometimes even offensive Christian dogmatism, Carlos Rodriguez may be the spark that ignites the flames of faith in the true Jesus. He tells it like it is, with a desire to motivate those who feel ready to engage the world around them, not through political or religious agendas, but through grace and love. Drop the Stones invites followers of Jesus to drop their religious rocks and culture war cliches, and, with open hands, engage in the rewarding lifestyle of a Jesus-styled love. -
Eternity Is Now In Session
$17.99Add to cartSomething in us is waiting-for what, we don’t know. Something different? Something better?
For Christians, perhaps the deepest expression of what we’re waiting for is found in the phrase “eternal life.” But what is eternal life? Why do we want it? And how do we know if we have it?
In Eternity Is Now in Session, bestselling author John Ortberg dispels the myth that eternal life is something way out in outer space that we can only hope to experience after we die-and that being saved is merely about meeting the minimal entrance requirements for getting into heaven. Instead, John unpacks the reality that the moment we trust Christ, we are initiated into “eternal living” with God as a here and now reality, one that will continue beyond our life on this earth.
Jesus defined eternal life just once, in John 17:3: “. . . that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” The kind of “knowing God” that is eternal life is an interactive relationship, not just an affirmation of certain facts about God. Once we begin the transformative journey of truly knowing God, we can start to experience His presence, favor, and resurrection power right here on this earth-in the details, tasks, and challenges of daily, ordinary life.
And as we begin to know God this way, we’ll realize each moment of our lives is a vehicle to the eternity we’ve been longing for all along.

Letters To The Church
$17.99Add to cartLetters to the Church reminds readers how powerful the Church can be and calls this generation to passionately pursue God’s vision for His beloved Bride.
God’s Church started as a radical, spiritually intimate gathering of believers that ultimately changed history. Yet millions today are content to be mere observers at church. Many more have left, brokenhearted and cynical. But God is waking up His people-people who will risk anything and sacrifice everything to be the dynamic, world-changing Church of Scripture.
In Letters to the Church, Francis Chan invites readers to wrestle with the fact that many churches have drifted from God’s desire for them. He challenges Christians to ask, “What does God want for His Church? When Jesus returns, will He find us caring for His Bride-even more than for our own lives?”
Speaking out of deep love for the Church, Chan guides Christ followers to live out God’s magnificent and beautiful vision for His Church-a vision we may have lost but God has never forgotten.

Astonished By God
$17.99Add to cartThis book is a revised, improved version of Doctrine Matters.
For more than thirty years, John Piper pastored in the rough and tumble realities of downtown Minneapolis, preaching his people through the ups and down of life one Sunday at a time. When it came to capturing a generation of joy in one final sermon series, he turned to ten trademark truths to leave ringing in his peoples’ ears.
These ten are world-shaking truths-each astonishing in its own way. First they turned Piper’s own world upside down. Then his church’s. And they will continue to turn the whole world upside down as the gospel of Christ advances in distance and depth. These surprising doctrines, as Piper writes, are “wildly untamable, explosively uncontainable, and electrically future-creating.”
Join a veteran author, pastor, and Christian statesman as he captures the ten astonishing, compassionate, life-giving, joy-awakening, hope-sustaining truths that have held everything together for him.

Pull It Off
$22.00Add to cartAward-winning musical artist and conference speaker Julianna Zobrist urges women to be confident and discover their true identity in Christ.
Julianna answers the question that probes many modern women today: How can we be completely transparent and vulnerable with ourselves and others, and yet be secure and confident enough to walk through life without fear? PULL IT OFF is broken down into three parts that will address the issues of authority, identity, and security, in order to reveal the root issue of where our fears stem from. Through personal anecdotes and research, Julianna walks readers through how to maximize our true identities and lean into our unique gifts due to a grounded belief in our acceptance of others, our acceptance by God, and ultimately, the acceptance of ourselves.
Julianna’s message and music is for anyone who wants to express the joy and freedom of knowing that Christ gives them the strength to be bold, fearless, and confidently vulnerable knowing that you don’t have to measure up to what others think of you but rather, knowing your true strength can shine because of who you are in Christ. “Only when we can come to grips with our worthwhileness, will we ever begin to step out in bravery and confidence and brilliance,” she says.
When we are secure, Julianna says, we believe that we are worthwhile and can, indeed, pull it off.
