Never Forgotten : A Novel
$15.99Add to cartAll He Wanted was Justice. All She Wanted was His Heart.
Georgina Whitmore, not accustomed to any man being unaffected by her charms, is plagued with the disappearance and rejection of Simon Fancourt. Twelve years later, Mr. Fancourt returns to British society with two children and a mad hunger for justice.
Racing against time, Simon works to uncover the men responsible for his wife’s horrific murder, protect his children, and fulfill his father’s unexpected will by marrying Georgina–the last thing in the world he wants to do.
Though her heart throbs to accept, she would rather lose him again than have his name without his love. She denies his proposal of matrimony, knowing it will cost them both. But as tragedies unravel and secret enemies narrow their sights on Simon, Georgina risks her life–and her reputation–to protect him and the children. Will the danger scorch them alive? Or will it, for the first time, open his heart to her?

Repackaging Christianity : Alpha And The Building Of A Global Brand
$12.99Add to cartAlpha is a global phenomenon, one of the most famous and controversial brands in Christian evangelization. Launched internationally in 1993, it has attracted wide public commentary over the decades, not only among churches but also in mainstream television, radio and newspapers such as The Economist and The New York Times. Even Elle and Fabulous have covered Alpha. Over a million participants attend the course every year and it has been a powerful driver of Christian innovation and resurgence in a secular culture.
Alpha’s presiding genius, Nicky Gumbel, has won plaudits as a new Billy Graham for the modern age. As Alpha prepares to mark its thirtieth anniversary in 2023, Repackaging Christianity tells, for the first time the full accounts of Gumbel’s dramatic conversion to Christianity along with other key figures such as the current Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby. It chronicles the genesis of Alpha from its beginnings in the West London dinner party set of the 1970s, turbo charged by the influence of John Wimber and the Toronto Blessing in the 1990s to what is now an international movement ‘to transform society’ embraced on every continent on the world.
Plenty of books, articles and doctoral theses have analysed and criticised Alpha from sociological and theological perspectives. But there has never yet been a full history of the fascinating story of this movement, until now.

Our Cry For Revival
$19.99Add to cartWhat Christian isn’t hungering for revival? Not just an emotional display of faith, but a revival that changes lives, renews churches, and can even change history. Such revivals as the Great Awakening, the Welsh Revival, and the Jesus Movement have earned their place in church history and are evidence that God is still alive and active. Even smaller revivals such as the recent revival at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky, caught the attention of the world as upwards of fifty thousand Christians traveled to the college campus to witness this move of God. The recent movie, The Jesus Revolution was a surprise success at the box office as, once again, Christians flocked to hear about revival.
Make no mistake, there is a worldwide hunger for revival, and especially so among American Christians. The great news is that every Christian has a part to play in bringing about revival. That part is first, last, and always prayer. Revivals are born from prayer. But will Christians pray? Do they really want revival? If recent events are indications of that fresh hunger for God in our midst, then the answer is a resounding yes!
With daily Scripture readings, reflections, prayer prompts, and quotes from classic Christian leaders, this 365-day guide will aid you in your quest to experience both personal and widespread revival through persistent prayer.
Yes, revival is on its way. Will you be one of the prayer warriors to usher in this next great move of God?

Are you or someone you love desperate for a miracle? As witnessed through Scripture, the God who was and is and is to come has been performing miracles from the beginning of time–so you can trust that Jesus wants to do something miraculous in your life today.
In this follow-up to his book Mysteries of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel dives deep into Scripture, biblical culture, and ancient texts to help you better understand the truths and the power behind God’s miracles, and to increase your faith that Jesus can perform miracles in your life.

*You can stop wandering aimlessly or feeling stuck in your current situation, but instead experience abundant life and healing (He healed the man at the Pool of Bethesda).
*God wants to bless you abundantly so you, in turn, can bless others and sow into His kingdom (Jesus multiplied the loaves and fish).
As you go on this journey with Rabbi Jason, a Messianic Jew, he is praying that God will lead you to new insights and breakthroughs in your life. And as God reveals Himself to you in a fresh and powerful way, you will be filled with a sense of His presence and shalom.

Love Has A Story
$19.99Add to cartLove has a story. It’s bigger than you. It’s bigger than me. It comes from old, an overflow of the beautiful love shared between the Father whose heart bursts for the Son, the Son who adores His Father, all wrapped in the glorious, life-giving love of the Spirit. And this great Love knows and cherishes every secret and intimate detail of your story. In fact, this story is for you.
So where and how do we fit in this grand story of love? In Love Has a Story, author and poet Quina Aragon shares how, before the foundations of the earth, the great storyteller was penning a story that included you. Love was thinking about you, imagining ways to showcase His love for you, and planning to rescue you. This was not one of those sentimental loves, but a love that would traverse the wilderness in search of and for His beloved . . . and give everything–His life, blood, wounds, hope, and an invitation to be family.
Join Quina in entering the greatest love story ever told. Through the prose and poetry of these meditations, you will come to know the great love of God for the world and for you. When you reach the end of this book, you will want to begin all over again. And you will want to share this great love story with your friends and family.
Before you danced in your mother’s womb, before Adam and Eve, your greatest-grandparents ever walked the earth, before stars lit up the night sky, there was God–handpicking you to inherit a bottomless ocean: His love. –Quina Aragon

Burning Of Rosemont Abbey
$17.99Add to cart1956: In the quiet village of Wilbeth Green, the smoldering ruins of Rosemont Abbey set the residents’ tongues wagging, and everyone is quick to accuse troublemaker Paul Everly of being the arsonist. Paul has vanished without a trace, leaving only his twin sister, Louisa, certain of his innocence. Fueling her conviction is an inexplicable connection–she felt her twin’s death an hour before the abbey went up in flames.
Knowing no one will believe her, Louisa embarks on her own investigation, challenging the skepticism of her neighbors and the disdain of her aunt and uncle. Even Inspector Malcolm Sinclair, once Paul’s closest friend, is torn between his duty and a lingering loyalty to Paul and warns Louisa to abandon her pursuit. But Louisa is determined to solve a murder no one else believes was committed, even if it means unraveling secrets that could shake Wilbeth Green to its core.
Award-winning author Naomi Stephens presents a gripping whodunnit–reminiscent of the beloved Agatha Christie tales–of love and redemption set in a quaint British village.

Exposing The Devils Playbook
$21.99Add to cartJust because you feel like you’re in bondage, it doesn’t mean you have to stay there.
After reading this book, I will have the insight needed to rupture the enemy’s grip on my life. I will gain the invaluable tools needed to fight in the spirit and take up my God-given authority as more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus.
Many believers are not victorious and not living lives of purpose and destiny because they don’t understand the schemes and wiles of the devil.
Using powerful teachings, this book will unveil and expose the devil and his kingdom to the very core of his ministry, strategies, and weapons he uses against the church today.
The church has fallen asleep. We do not understand the things of the Spirit. We don’t understand the enemy of our souls. He comes to kill, steal, and destroy using satanic strategies, game plans, and arsenals of weapons that he wants us to believe are nonchalant, easygoing, harmless, and unpredictable.
The church is not teaching and equipping believers to teach our hands to war in the spirit. In Psalm 144:1, David asked God, “Lord, teach my hands to war.” Now, instead of our hands being taught to fight the good fight, we find ourselves in handcuffs–limited, depleted, and spiritually anemic.
This book will help you unlock your spiritual handcuffs so you can understand the works of the devil and expose him before he sets foot on the battlefield of your life. You will learn how to crush the head of the serpent in any season of your life, and how you can see him coming in the blind spots of your walk with the Lord.
It’s time for believers to be trained, equipped, and become a spiritual army. It’s time to fight and expose the so-called devil and his entrapments. We will rise up and take back what he has stolen from us once and for all in the unmatchable name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our Savior. Jesus will be proud that He picked us for the ultimate battle.

Every Waking Hour
$16.99Add to cartDo All to the Glory of God
What does it mean for Christians to have a vocation? How may we glorify God through our work? Most people spend the majority of their waking hours at work, but rarely consider how they glorify God through their vocation.
In Every Waking Hour, Benjamin Quinn and Walter R. Strickland II offer a theological framework for understanding the intersection between the Christian life and the various ways we spend our time. “Work” isn’t simply our careers, it’s any way we engage with God’s creation. Doing so helps us develop a more robust understanding, based in Scripture, of how Monday through Friday intersect with Sunday morning.
Christ-followers are not merely chaplains on the job site-we are ministers in God’s world. We are to join our work with Christ’s work of making all things new.

Every Good Thing
$16.99Add to cartFor the Common Good
As Christians, how should we live in this material world? What does the Bible have to say on how we should think about our physical existence? Our perspective on this issue will affect how we conduct ourselves with our families, our workplaces, and our communities. It will shape our relationships, our careers, how we handle our finances, and every other aspect of our lives.
In Every Good Thing, David W. Jones explains why we should be concerned with the material world-for our own good, for the good of our neighbors, and for the glory of God. Scripture frequently speaks about issues such as wealth and poverty, work and rest, and creation and stewardship. Jones argues that the material here-and-now is just as important as the sweet by-and-by. God cares deeply about the material realm, and Jesus’ example was one of engagement with, not detachment from, the physical realm.
This introductory book covers some of the Bible’s most important teachings on these topics, helping Christians better understand how to live in the material world for the common good.

God Has A Name
$25.99Add to cartWhat you believe about God sets the foundation of the person you will become.
In God Has a Name, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer invites you to rethink many of the prevalent myths and misconceptions about God and weigh them against what God actually tells us about himself. After all, what you believe about God will ultimately shape the type of person you become.
We all live at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is many of our ideas about God are wrong. Not all wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways.
God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light–focusing on what God says about himself in the Bible. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way.
John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8–Yahweh’s self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including:
*Why do we feel this gap between us and God?
*Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him?
*What if our “God” is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires?
*What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine?
No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, God Has a Name invites you to step into a fresh and biblically rooted vision of who God is that has the potential to alter your life with God and shape who you become.

* practicing repentance that leads to refreshment of your soul
* pursuing holiness that leads to a freedom you never imagined possible
* cultivating intimacy with the Holy Spirit and enjoying the beauty of His presenceWith personal, and often humorous, anecdotes and biblical insights, Closer to God offers a guide to embracing intimacy with God from a place where the hunger for more of God is met through the beauty of obedience, holiness, and unity.

Living In Wonder
$29.99Add to cartThe West has become “disenchanted”–closed to the idea that the universe contains the supernatural, the metaphysical, or the non-material. Christianity is in crisis. People today are leaving the Church because faith has become dry and lifeless. But people aren’t leaving faith for atheism. They are still searching for the divine, and it might just be right under their noses.
In Living in Wonder, thought leader, cultural critic, and New York Times bestselling author Rod Dreher shows you how to encounter and embrace wonder in the world. In his trademark mixture of analysis, reporting, and personal story, Dreher brings together history, cultural anthropology, neuroscience, and the ancient Church to show you–no matter your religious affiliation–how to reconnect with the natural world and the Great Tradition of Christianity so you can relate to the world with more depth and connection.
He shares stories of miracles, rumors of angels, and outbreaks of awe to offer hope, as well as a guide for discerning and defending the truth in a confusing and spiritually dark culture, full of contemporary spiritual deceptions and tempting counterfeit spiritualities.
The world is not what we think it is. It is far more mysterious, exciting, connected, and adventurous. As you learn practical ways to regain a sense of wonder and awaken your sense of God’s presence–through prayer, attention, and living by spiritual disciplines–your eyes will be opened, and you will find the very thing every one of us searches for: our ultimate meaning.

Triumph Of The Rising
$14.99Add to cartNew book series from bestselling author John MacArthur on the great chapters of the Bible
Taken from the MacArthur New Testament Commentary on 1 Corinthians, this book equips believers with transforming truth by explaining Paul’s treatment of the doctrine of the resurrection. Chapters include:
*The Evidence for Christ’s Resurrection
*The Importance of Bodily Resurrection
*The Resurrection Plan
*Resurrection Incentives
*Our Resurrection Bodies
*Victory Over DeathIn 1 Corinthians 15, Paul delivers the most extensive treatment of the resurrection in all of Scripture. As the heart pumps life-giving blood to every part of the body, so the truth of the resurrection gives life to every area of gospel truth.
The resurrection is the pivot on which all of Christianity turns and without which none of the other truths would much matter. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ, Christianity would be mere wishful thinking, taking its place alongside all other systems of human philosophy and religious speculation. Paul, however, declares that Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, therefore all who are in Christ Jesus will also be raised to life.
