Out Of A Far Country
$16.00
Coming Out, Then Coming Home
“Christopher, you must choose! You must choose the family or choose homosexuality.” He looked at me and said, “It’s not something I can choose… I am gay. If you can’t accept me, then I have no other choice but to leave.”
Christopher Yuan, the son of Chinese immigrants, discovered at an early age that he was different. He was attracted to other boys. As he grew into adulthood, his mother, Angela, hoped to control the situation. Instead, she found that her son and her life were spiraling out of control-and her own personal demons were determined to defeat her.
Years of heartbreak, confusion, and prayer followed before the Yuans found a place of complete surrender, which is God’s desire for all families. Their amazing story, told from the perspectives of both mother and son, offers hope for anyone affected by homosexuality. God calls all who are lost to come home to him, and he wants everyone to pursue holy sexuality. Out of a Far Country speaks to prodigals, parents of prodigals, and those wanting to minister to the gay community.
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.” – Luke 15:20
Includes a discussion guide for personal reflection and group use.

Is God Real
$28.99Original price was: $28.99.$19.97Current price is: $19.97.It’s no coincidence that one of the most asked questions on any search engine is: Is God real?
When life feels overwhelming, we want to know if there really is a deity who loves us, knows us, and cares about what happens to us. Join investigative journalist and former atheist Lee Strobel on a quest to determine whether we can know with confidence that God is real.
Lee Strobel’s landmark book, The Case for Christ, is one of the most respected defenses of Christianity of all time. Now in Is God Real? Lee weaves together material from his previous books with the latest evidence from the most brilliant scientific and philosophical minds to answer the pressing questions on our hearts and minds.
In this rational exploration of the proof of God’s existence, Lee investigates:
*If God is real, why is there so much suffering?
*How do we know which God is real?
*If God is real, why does he seem so hidden?
*How do recent scientific findings support the claim that God is real?
*If God is real, what difference does it make?Written for skeptics and believers alike, Is God Real? is a life-changing exploration of the question that matters most.
