Gen SeXYZ : Love, Sexuality And Youth
$16.99

“Corrupt the young. Get them away from religion. Encourage their interest in sex….”-Vladimir Lenin, 1921, How to Destroy the West

Going through each of the prophetic statements made by Lenin in 1921 shows why America is where it is today. Only 4 percent of Gen Z think about life through a biblical lens. To them, sexuality is more important than friends, family, or their faith.

Jeff Grenell’s goal in Gen SeXYZ: Love, Sexuality & Youth is to reach youth, youth leaders, and the church with a message that kicks the devil to the curb and restores sexuality to its God-given origins.

When the church failed to respond to the sexual revolution of the 1960s and the present one of the 21st century, its role in society crumbled. The media stopped censoring, the government redefined marriage, schools taught progressive sex education, and the list of genders grew. We’ve experienced generational loss because we’ve gotten further away from the source of our original knowledge of sexuality: the Bible.

Jeff points out that our understanding of sexuality must be anchored to the fact that God is love and the devil stole sex. He provides direct quotations from teenagers and leaders, practical knowledge, and tools to launch a spiritual revolution of love and truth that will grow the church to reach younger generations and combat the loveless, godless sexuality ethic in our culture that’s misleading them.

And : The Restorative Power Of Love In An Either Or World
$18.99

While others often respond to the cares and concerns of our day through anger, And: The Restorative Power of Love in an Either/Or World attempts to offer a response steeped in the heartbeat of Love.

This book is an invitation to encounter the lived experience and philosophical musings of another as a human, not as a project or agenda to conquer. Without apology, it embraces humanity and all the emotions, back stories, and history that come along with who we are and who Love is inviting us to be. This book is for those who want to think more deeply, those who are asking questions of how, what, and perhaps even why, and those who want to engage in deep listening and empathy.

And: The Restorative Power of Love in an Either/Or World is an invitation to move beyond binaries, beyond hierarchy and comparison to embrace the concept of “AND,” with inclusion and generativity that allow for more than one perspective and/or way of being.

Touching on issues of race, body, motherhood, church, and wonder, these writings are from the stirrings of the author’s own soul, extending an invitation to sit with Spirit in the process of mindful meditation, to humbly sit with compassion and curiosity in ways that evoke honesty and healing so that one might move beyond either/or and discover how the restorative power and uniting thread of Love might be stitching each of us to the world and to each other.

Just Discipleship : Biblical Justice In An Unjust World
$33.99

Many Christians and churches are rediscovering that God cares deeply about justice, but opinions abound as to what an approach to biblical justice might look like in contemporary society.

What exactly does the Bible mean by justice, and what does it have to do with poverty, racism, and other issues in our world? More importantly, how do we become the kind of people who practice justice?

Biblical scholar Michael Rhodes argues that the Bible offers a vision of justice-oriented discipleship that is critical for the formation of God’s people. Grounded in biblical theology, virtue ethics, and his own experiences, he shows that justice is central to the Bible, central to Jesus, and central to authentic Christian discipleship. Justice stands at the heart of Scripture. Following Jesus demands that we become just disciples in an unjust world.

Bondad Del Reino – (Spanish)
$16.99

El egoismo, el orgullo y la hostilidad dominan los titulares, las redes sociales y las interacciones cotidianas. Pero que pasaria si cada cristiano hiciera un simple acto de bondad cada semana? Que pasaria si ofrecerse a llevar la compra a alguien que esta pasando apuros pudiera provocar una revolucion?

Con gran aliento y conocimiento biblico, el Dr. Tony Evans muestra como, cuando dejamos que la bondad de Dios nos cambie, podemos cambiar el mundo. A traves de ejemplos de la vida real y enseanzas practicas, nos capacita a cada uno de nosotros para:

*Reemplazar el discurso hiriente con discurso util
*Elegir el honor sobre el odio
*Reconocer las oportunidades cotidianas para difundir el amor de Dios
*Descubrir el valor para dar un paso al frente con bondad

La bondad es contagiosa. Es hora de dejar que el amor de Dios encienda un movimiento contracultural que venza el mal con el bien.

Selfishness, pride, and hostility dominate the headlines, social media, and everyday interactions. But what if every Christian did one simple act of kindness each week? What if offering to carry groceries for someone who is struggling could spark a revolution?

With rousing encouragement and biblical insight, Dr. Tony Evans shows how, when God’s kindness changes us, we can change the world. Through real-life examples and practical teaching, he empowers each of us to:

*Replace hurtful speech with helpful speech
*Choose honor over hate
*Recognize everyday opportunities to spread God’s love
*Discover the courage to step out in kindness

Kindness is catching. It’s time to let God’s love ignite a countercultural movement that overcomes evil with good.

Body And Soul Healed And Whole
$18.99

If you’re a survivor of sexual harm, recovering your sexuality is possible. You are worthy of good care.

The toxic effects of sexual trauma and abuse can be devastating and lasting. Victims’ ability to experience healthy sexuality, even if they free themselves from the abuse, is often shattered.

If sexual abuse, violence, or coercive control is part of your story, certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT) and trauma specialist Tabitha Westbrook wants you to know: you are not alone, and healing is possible. In Body & Soul, Healed & Whole, Tabitha draws on her specialized expertise, her own personal story of abuse, and a deep knowledge of Scripture to create a safe and compassionate place for you to start recovering – or even finding – the healthy sexuality God intended for you.

With honest wisdom and empathetic understanding, Body & Soul, Healed & Whole will help you discover how to:

*process your story of abuse–whether it occurred as a child, within marriage, or by someone in a position of power–without shame,

*develop healthy relationships with God, with ourselves, and with others (including those of the opposite sex),

*reconnect with your good body and establish a foundation for healthy sexuality, whether currently married or single,

*identify and address any spiritual abuse that may have taken place within sexually abusive relationships,

*understand what arousal structures are, how they’re formed and distorted by abuse, and how to shift them when needed for healing, and

*incorporate practical skills for self-care during your healing process.

Sexuality does not have to be forever broken. Rest assured in a God who understands and loves you in the deepest of deep ways–and begin your journey toward wholeness, restoration and healing.

Is God Anti Gay
$9.99

A sensitive exploration of the Bible’s teaching on sexuality.

Is it ok to be gay and Christian? Does the Bible really say that homosexuality is wrong? Is sexual orientation fundamental to identity?

Author and speaker Sam Allberry has expanded and restructured his best-selling book, which draws on his own experience as a believer who experiences same-sex attraction. As well as exploring Bible passages that talk directly about homosexuality, this new edition frames the whole discussion with Jesus’ general teaching on sex and marriage, as well as what Jesus teaches about finding ultimate satisfaction and happiness. It also challenges the current culture narrative, which inextricably ties sexuality to personal identity, and he shows that the gospel is good news for everyone, whatever their sexual orientation.

This sensitive exploration of the Bible’s teaching on sexuality has been written to help both Christians and non-Christians struggling with the Bible’s teaching on this issue, whether they experience same-sex attraction themselves or not.

Beyond Her Yes
$16.99

Much pro-life ministry is focused on encouraging women to say yes to life rather than terminate their pregnancies. But what happens after that decision has been made? Who will provide that mother, who likely considered abortion because she could not see how she could afford to have a child, with the long-term emotional support, education, and guidance that will help her out of poverty?

Economics and abortion are intrinsically linked, and if pro-life ministry is to make a real difference in the lives of women and families, it must expand its perspective beyond that initial yes in order to address the underlying problem of generational poverty. In Beyond Her Yes, cofounder of RENEW Life Center Marisol Maldonado Rodriguez helps you understand the full impact that poverty has on women making life decisions and then shows how a comprehensive approach to pro-life ministries can make a far greater impact.

Saving the lives of the not-yet-born is just the first step. Discover how you can be part of saving entire families from a life of hardship and hard choices.
