Suicide Prevention : Hope When Life Seems Hopeless
$5.99

Nothing is as heartbreaking as a loved one who has lost hope and is contemplating suicide. A person who seems cheerful one day can slip into despair and hopelessness the next. God’s heart is tender and full of compassion toward those experiencing deep pain. The mini-book Suicide Prevention covers the steps to identifying and preventing suicide using a Christian approach. Suicide prevention requires compassion toward the sufferer, along with practical steps and biblical assurance of God’s love.

The Bible says, The Lord longs to be gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion” (Isaiah 30:18). He feels the emotional, spiritual, and physical agony that engulfs the lives of those teetering on the brink of absolute hopelessness and suicide. And from God’s tender heart springs forth words of wisdom, life-transforming truths that truly affirm your value to him.

You will learn how to better reflect God’s heart to help those who are hurting, and you will gain practical insight on what to say and what to do. This mini-book is filled with practical advice and Biblical wisdom to guide you as you reach out to a suicidal friend.

Suicide Prevention is an easy-to-understand book that covers the basics everyone should know, and separates fact from fiction:
*Fable: Never talk about suicide with deeply depressed people-it could give them ideas.

Fact: Asking what someone is feeling doesn’t create suicidal thoughts. You can assume that most depressed or very anxious people have given some thought to taking their lives. Demystify the subject by talking about their feelings.

*Fable: More suicides occur in the winter holidays.

Fact: Suicide rates are below average in the winter and above average in the spring, peaking in April. For youth, suicide rates are higher in the summer. For middle-aged adults, age 36 and up, suicide rates rise again in the fall. In general, suicide risks decrease as social interactions increase. Becoming aware of the most frequent occurrences of suicide will help you discern when a struggler is at risk. Suicide Prevention helps you spot the characteristics of a person in danger. Learn –
*The 3 stages of potential suicide
*Which emotions to watch for
*The types of suicide: symbolic suicide, copycat suicide, and the newly coined “bully-cide” affecting young people.

Know the answers to these vital questions so that suicide can be prevented:
*When are suicide attempts more likely?
*Are suicide rates higher in urban or ru

Fighting Words Devotional
$19.99

Whether it’s a dream that isn’t coming true, a stretch of the journey that feels especially dark, or just the basic “busy and tired” each of us braves in the crazy chaos of the ordinary, have you ever faced a season where “life to the full” feels just out of reach, light seems like it it’s just over the horizon, or lies seem to crowd out the truth?

If you’re anything like Ellie Holcomb, the answer is yes. For her in these seasons, God’s Word has been a shelter, a comfort, a song, a balm, and an anchor. Ultimately, it’s been a light that has helped kick back at the darkness of the lies we so often believe. In her debut devotional, Fighting Words, you are invited to come alongside Ellie, as you ponder the power of God’s promises together and speak them into the darkest corners of your soul.

Filled with encouraging and honest reflections, beautifully designed Scripture memory pages, and wonderful questions to help you process, Fighting Words is a place where you can wrestle, respond to, and take hold of precious truths in God’s Word to help you push back the lies that so often consume, distract, and destroy us.

God’s Word is alive. In this devotional, Ellie invites you to steep your soul in the living Word, take hold of it, wrestle with it, bury it in your heart, and watch as it brings about life and flourshing. As you journey along with Ellie, you’ll find that little by little, you’re fighting the lies with the truth, kicking back the darkness, and living in the light.

Domestic Violence : Assault On A Womans Worth
$4.99

God designed the marriage relationship to benefit one another. He intended married couples to love, honor, and cherish each other all the days of their lives, but life doesn’t always turn out that way. In some relationships, cruelty has replaced the sacred relationship defined by God. The Domestic Violence mini-book outlines a Christian approach to help you identify and stop physical and emotional abuse.

Experts estimate that 1-in-3 women suffer from some form of violence from a husband, boyfriend, or relative. In too many homes around the world, the marriage bond has become bondage-shared lives have become shattered by abuse. Husbands berate, belittle, and betray their wives. Yet these secret assaults stay hidden from the outside world. One mate harming the other has undermined the sacred relationship created by God.

Any form of abuse is a flagrant violation of the marriage vows, To have and to hold from this day forward,”to love and to cherish, ’til death do us part.” And although such abuse is too frequently behind closed doors, it is blatantly in the open before the eyes of the Lord.

Included in the mini-book Domestic Violence: Assault on a Woman’s Worth are abuse checklists with a list of behaviors that you may have observed or experienced. God has a heart for those who are victims of domestic violence. He wants you to know that he hears your cries; he thinks you are worthy of love without violence, and he holds you in the palm of his hand. Learn the causes of violent behavior and the reasons many women won’t leave abusive relationships.

In the section titled, “Steps to Solution,” June Hunt gives many tools:
*How to answer a person who claims that violence is justified.
*How to know whether the abuser has really changed
*How to build healthy boundaries
*How to prepare a safety plan
*How to use the law in the United States
*And much more.

This mini-book is a quick overview and is easy-to-understand. It focuses on the key issues and is perfect for the busy person who needs instant advice.

Bearing God : Living A Christ-Formed Life In Uncharted Waters
$10.99

Imagine yourself with Jesus, in a boat on the sea, as a sudden storm fills the other passengers with fear.

When the priest read this Gospel story in Mark 4, Marlena Graves didn’t see herself as the terrified disciples, lacking faith. She wasn’t Jesus, peacefully sleeping through the danger. She wasn’t the wind or the waves. According to Graves, “I was the boat! And then it occurred to me that, like Jesus’ mother, Mary, I, too, am a God bearer.”

Journey with Graves and discover these things:

*We are all vessels that carry Jesus as we journey throughout our lives.

*Boats are made for the water–they have a mission–and that mission always involves others.

*Jesus is not disturbed by any storms (or our reactions to them).

*Our lives, which carry Christ and the gospel, are to bring salvation to others, especially those who have been thrown overboard in life.

*There is a destination–life with God–at the heart of spiritual formation. As we bear God and go out to sea, God is also bearing us into oneness with him.

Bearing God is a short and enthralling read that will awaken you as a disciple of Jesus to a sense of adventure in your calling. Using the metaphor of Christians as vessels for Christ, Bearing God is packed with inspirational lessons and principles to help readers grow in their spirituality. An ideal discipleship resource for churches, small groups, and personal devotion.

Helping Your Child With A Bully

She encourages parents to start by being a source of comfort and understanding, helping a child identify safe people to go to, and role-playing appropriate responses to mean behavior. Reminding children that their value comes from Jesus and that he is always with them will help counteract the temptation for retribution, mishandling of conflict, or falling into isolation.

Embracing Rhythms Of Work And Rest
$25.00

In our frenzied culture, the possibility of living in balanced rhythms of work and rest often feels elusive. This rings especially true for pastors and leaders who carry the weight of nonstop responsibility. Most know they need rest but might be surprised to find within themselves a deep resistance to letting go and resting in God one day a week, let alone for longer seasons of sabbatical.

The journey to a meaningful sabbath practice is slow and gradual, and it is a journey we need to take in community. Sharing her own story of practicing sabbath for the past twenty years, Ruth Haley Barton offers hard-won wisdom regarding the rhythms of sabbath, exploring both weekly sabbath keeping as well as extended periods of sabbatical time.

Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest grounds us in God’s intentions in giving us the gift of sabbath, providing practical steps for embedding sabbath rhythms in churches and organizations. Each chapter concludes with What Your Soul Wants to Say to God, an opportunity to reflect and engage God around your own journey with the material. Sabbath is more than a practice–it is a way of life ordered around God’s invitation to regular rhythms of work, rest, and replenishment that will sustain us for the long haul of life in leadership.

Includes a conversation guide for small groups and communities.

Christian Man : A Conversation About The 10 Issues Men Say Matter Most
$18.99

No man fails on purpose. Quite the opposite. When our feet hit the floor every morning, we’re looking for a win.

But these are turbulent times to be a man. In gathering material for this book, Morley interviewed many men. Their input was powerful. And transparent. They agreed that it’s increasingly difficult to juggle all their responsibilities as men, husbands, fathers, friends, workers, churchmen, and citizens. As Nick put it, “It feels almost impossible to live out a biblical model of manhood.”

We all feel it, don’t we? Something about this world just isn’t right. There are so many voices phishing to get inside our heads. It feels like we’re being “hacked.” Spiritually hacked.

No one understands what you’re going through more than men’s expert Patrick Morley, author of the landmark bestseller The Man in the Mirror, which has sold over 4 million copies. And now, Morley has put together a game plan so you can get that win you’re looking for. The Christian Man is filled with powerful stories and refreshingly practical answers to questions like:

*How can I lead a more balanced life?
*How can I have a deeper walk with God?
*What makes a great husband?
*How can I become a dad who makes a difference?
*How should I think about my work?
*What’s the right way to deal with lust?

By the end of this must-read book, you will know how to intentionally release the power of God on the issues that matter most to you. You’ll be able to walk with confidence in the one identity that matters most: The Christian Man.

If You Forget Everything Else Remember This
Original price was: $15.99.Current price is: $10.99.

From that first angelic role in the nativity play to that first playground love, from cut knees and scuffed shoes, school bullies and World Book Day costume design, life as a parent in the primary years is an emotional roller coaster. Amid the practical chaos of finding swimming goggles, packing lunches, cleaning out the hamster cage, and refereeing sibling squabbles over screen time, many of us long for some help or a little wisdom to get us through.

Here is that help. A brand-new edition brimming with sayings, cartoons, and stories in bite-sized chapters to help navigate this challenging season of parenting and family life, and to reassure parents that they’re not alone; someone else struggles with feeling judged, with knowing when to act and when to “count to ten,” and someone else also accidentally killed Finny the class goldfish over Christmas break (and the class will never know the difference). So encourage parents to grab a cup of coffee and a doughnut, wipe the glitter off the table, and if they forget everything else as a parent, they can remember this . . .

Youre Still A Good Mom
$15.99

We must surrender our motherhood to the One who never fails–even though we often fail.

Motherhood is a gift. It’s beautiful and meaningful work. But raising imperfect humans can also be exhausting and leave you depleted. Social media has only increased the pressure to look good and be the perfect mom. But what is a “good” mom? And why does it seem like the lives of others are shinier and easier than yours? Fellow mom and friend Hallie Dye understands the motivation to be a mom who never fails (yet feels like she’s always failing).

In You’re Still a Good Mom, Hallie dismantles our faulty expectations of motherhood and replaces them with an understanding of who you are in Christ and who He calls you to be. Raising kids brings out our weaknesses. You can feel as though no matter how hard you try, you’re not the mom you imagined you’d be.

Hallie shows the way of surrendering motherhood. Through real life stories and a biblical foundation, readers learn how to navigate failures so that they can raise children who see their need for a good and perfect Savior. Writing on truth, compassion, grief, grace, dreams, and much more, the author speaks to moms right where they’re at. You will find real hope in what God defines as faithful and good and be robustly affirmed that You’re Still a Good Mom.

Case For Heaven
$26.99

Bestselling and award-winning author Lee Strobel interviews experts about the evidence for the afterlife and offers credible answers to the most provocative questions about what happens when we die, near-death experiences, heaven, and hell.

We all want to know what awaits us on the other side of death, but is there any reliable evidence that there is life after death? Investigative author Lee Strobel offers a lively and compelling study into one of the most provocative topics of our day.

Through fascinating conversations with respected scholars and experts–a neuroscientist from Cambridge University, a researcher who analyzed a thousand accounts of near-death experiences, and an atheist-turned-Christian-philosopher–Strobel offers compelling reasons for why death is not the end of our existence but a transition to an exciting world to come. Looking at biblical accounts, Strobel unfolds what awaits us after we take our last breath and answers questions like:
*Is there an afterlife?
*What is heaven like?
*How will we spend our time there?
*And what does it mean to see God face to face?

With a balanced approach, Strobel examines the alternative of Hell and the logic of damnation, and gives a careful look at reincarnation, universalism, the exclusivity claims of Christ, and other issues related to the topic of life after death. With vulnerability, Strobel shares the experience of how he nearly died years ago and how the reality of death can shape our lives and faith. Follow Strobel on this journey of discovery of the entirely credible, believable, and exhilarating life to come.

Does Christianity Still Make Sense
$17.99

A chronic doubter responds to 20 of the most difficult questions about Christianity

From the Foreword by J. Warner Wallace: “A book written by a man who has genuinely struggled with the questions, wrestled with doubts, and emerged faithful on the other side.
He understands you.”

Does Christianity still make sense? Years after Bobby Conway became a Christian, this question haunted him. Even though by then, he was the pastor of a thriving church, it seemed as if his entire belief structure was being dismantled. Had he been duped?
Perhaps you can relate to how Bobby felt. Maybe you find yourself questioning in the same way.

In this book, Bobby describes his own long journey through chronic doubt to a settled and confident trust. In this book, he responds to the twenty toughest challenges to the Christian faith, including these difficult questions:

*Why are there so many scandals in the Church?
*Aren’t Christians just a bunch of hypocrites?
*Why do Christians use God’s name to oppress others?
*Why are so many Christians racists?
*Why does God allow evil in the world?
*Is there reliable evidence for God’s existence?

Join Bobby in this book as he explores these questions and many more while describing how he was hammered with doubts for years.

Hidden Agendas : Dropping The Masks That Keep Us Apart
Original price was: $19.99.Current price is: $11.97.

We like to pretend that hidden agendas are just for self-important bosses or egotistical politicians, but we all have them. Deep down, we all have a secret plan for getting from where we are to where we want to be, even if we refuse to admit it to ourselves.

And if our hidden agendas aren’t enough, we wear masks to obscure the truth even more. We put on these masks-like religion, appearance, power, politics, or protection-to drive our agendas. But all of this leaves us feeling phony, ashamed, guilty, and afraid. It’s killing us and hurting those we love. But for most of us, it will be a cold day in a hot place before we will be fully honest with anyone else.

There is so much more to life than hiding, pretending, and never being loved. In fact, there is already one person who sees behind the masks we wear and the hidden agendas that drive us. It does no good to tell God that you’re sick when you’re drunk, that you love him when you don’t, or that you didn’t steal and eat an apple (with apple juice dripping down your chin). God always recognizes and loves the “you” behind the mask.

So what can we do about the hidden agendas we have and the masks we wear? How can we gather the courage to be real? “Being real” has to start with your relationship with your heavenly Father. God already knows you inside and out. But God doesn’t know you in order to “out” you to your friends. His unconditional love for his own is reason we can pray to our Father without fear of rejection or judgment. Knowing God’s love, knowing that your heavenly Father is for you not against you is the only reason to give up your masks and develop the type of authentic relationships you never thought you could have.

Power Of Gratitude

Gratitude is a powerful weapon against toxic emotions like envy, resentment, and frustration. Being grateful also improves physical and relational health, helping individuals boost self-esteem and decrease self-pity. When people focus on the things they are grateful for, their satisfaction in life increases. Comparisons cease. Unnecessary pursuits pause.
And they begin to notice things that truly matter. Life. Breath. Generosity. Beauty. Grace. This is where deep connection with God is found.

As you read these devotions and Scriptures, be inspired to live with gratitude in your heart and praise on your lips. Meditate on things that produce life and peace. Evaluate each day in the light of God’s truth and stand in awe of a heavenly Father who gives abundantly more than you can ask or imagine. As you quiet yourself before him, experience the goodness of his presence and be refreshed with his life-giving joy.

Choose to be thankful today and watch how it changes your perspective for the days ahead.

Set Adrift : Deconstructing What You Believe Without Sinking Your Faith
$19.99

How to analyze and reevaluate your Christian beliefs and experiences in the church while keeping the core of your faith intact.

The number of Christians leaving the church today is significant. Many feel there is no place for them within the faith–they no longer feel at home in their church community or tradition. For various reasons, they are unsettled by the version of Christianity they’ve inherited.

Stripping away the nonessential aspects of Christianity, Sean McDowell and John Marriott will help you navigate the jarring questions and cultural challenges that lead many to walk away from the faith. You’ll come to recognize that there are other ways Christians throughout history have understood what faithfulness to Jesus looks like.

Each chapter provides practical advice on how to disassemble, rethink, and reassemble beliefs that are truly Christian and culturally and personally relevant. You’ll learn how you can continue to seek an authentic faith by:

*Establishing Jesus and his teachings as the foundation.
*Utilizing the creeds as boundary markers of what is essential.
*Seeing the entire Bible as a truthful revelation from God.
*Seeing Christianity as a historic and global tradition that encompasses diverse communities and viewpoints.

The authors of this book can personally identify with the process of disillusionment that many young believers go through. They wrote Set Adrift as people who had to navigate their own way back through the fog of deconstruction. They wrote it to offer their own personal suggestions for what to do when you’re not sure what to believe anymore.
