Remember And Rehearse
$22.99

Stories are powerful. Few things on earth rival the power of stories. Humans are captured by stories, we are entertained by stories, and we live in stories. But it’s not enough to simply recognize that stories are powerful. We have to recognize that the power of stories can orient us to what is true, good and beautiful. And if they have this power, they also have the power to disorient us from what is true, good and beautiful. It all depends on the story itself.

There is one true story that you are invited to live in-the story of the Bible. From Genesis to Revelation the Bible is one true story that invites us to know and love God. But you can’t live in a story you don’t know. Remember and Rehearse will help readers understand the whole story of Scripture. Knowing the true, good story of God combats the false stories the world tells. Through the big movements of Scripture: creation, fall, the covenants, Christ, the Spirit and the Church, and the Kingdom without end, readers will discover the unfolding drama of God’s Kingdom coming to earth and how each of us are invited to be participants.

In this book, you’ll discover:

*The false stories the world tells us
*The true and better story of the complete narrative of Scripture
*How you are part of that story

We are a forgetful people, but God has given us His Word so that we may remember and rehearse.

Cost Of Ambition
$24.99

Many people believe that ambition–striving to be better than others–improves us and advances society. But what if it actually makes us worse?

In The Cost of Ambition, world-renowned theologian and award-winning author Miroslav Volf argues that striving for superiority has negative consequences in all domains of life. Instead, we should strive for excellence. Volf explores:

*what Sren Kierkegaard, John Milton, and the apostle Paul say about the cost of ambition
*how we can achieve excellence rather than strive for superiority
*how to stop being plagued by our own sense of inferiority to others
*why Christians must retrieve a humbler way of life

Volf also examines what the teachings of Jesus and the stories in Genesis say on the matter. Volf explains how striving to be better than others devalues our achievements, surroundings, and relationships by turning them into mere means to an empty goal. This pursuit, though widely accepted in modern life, is at odds with key Christian convictions.

After exposing the toxicity of ambition, Volf uses contemporary examples to guide us toward striving for excellence.

Chosen Book Five 40 Days With Jesus
$16.99

You are called to surrender.

Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6).

Unfortunately, we live in a world that values personal feelings and desires more than objective truth. We’ve even changed our vernacular to accommodate our self-centeredness and ever-evolving relationship with the truth by calling it “my truth,” as though truth changes depending on the person claiming to know it.

But when it comes to following Jesus–the One who called Himself the Truth–we don’t get to curate our beliefs about who He is or what He taught based on what we’re comfortable with.

In The Chosen – Book Five, you’ll be challenged to surrender to the harder teachings of Jesus. Together, may we endure His words with ears that hear. May we be soberminded. And may we hold fast to the Truth, no matter how unpopular His teachings have become.

Whole : Spirit, Soul, Mind, Body
$19.95

“This book is a result of one of those beautiful exchanges between God and myself where He’s doing all the talking, and I’m just listening and getting excited by what I’m hearing. It was so fun when, in my spirit, I heard, “Whole.” That was it. And then there was a picture of a perfect silver apple. Somehow, I knew exactly what He meant! God wanted to do a work for the women of our church, bringing them into an experience and position of truly being whole. The apple represented what happened in the Garden when Eve ate of the forbidden fruit. And the picture of the apple as I saw it now was perfect-complete and restored. Whole. That represents exactly what Jesus has done by His death and resurrection. He has restored us to our original standing with God, and it’s a perfect work! He wants to use this book to take you on that journey of complete restoration. Whole: spirit, soul, mind, and body.” Sam Evans, author.

Formed For Fellowship
$22.99

You are being formed. The only question is what is forming you?

The truth is that your life will look like whatever you love most.

You are shaped by what you seek. You become what you behold.

What we spend our time consuming will inform who we are becoming, and where we set our eyes today will determine the trajectory of who we are years and even decades from now. God’s invitation to His people is to be formed for fellowship: fellowship with God and with one another.

We are born into this world malformed and broken, but we don’t have to stay that way. God loves us and He wants to change us. “Spiritual Formation” is the question of what, why, and how God changes His people to look more and more like Christ.

Christians often struggle with the “Why?” of the Christian life: Why is it good to obey God? Why pray? Why read the bible? Why share the gospel? In Formed for Fellowship: Becoming what you Behold, Kyle Worley helps connect the dots between the practices of the Christian life and the nature and works of God. If we become what we behold, then every “spiritual discipline” of the Christian life must lead us to look upon God.

Formed for Fellowship will answer crucial questions like:

*What is a person?
*How are we formed?
*Where do we belong?
*What do we love?
*What do we know?
*What has our attention?
*What do we give our time to?
*Where is our hope?
*Who is our enemy?

Every one of us is being shaped, changed, and formed every day. Are we being shaped to look more like Christ or more like the world? Formed for Fellowship is an invitation to look upon God and be changed.

Homeschooling : You’re Doing It Right Just By Doing It
$24.99

Be encouraged! You’re already “doing it right” just by doing it.

– a must-have resource for parents who homeschool or who want to start
– from the founder of the 1000 Hours Outside Movement
– equips parents with the confidence and tools they need to give their children the education they dream of and deserve

During the past five years, homeschooling rates have been on the rise and show no signs of slowing. But many parents lack confidence, questioning whether they are doing it right (or whether they should take the plunge at all). With so many voices offering conflicting advice, it’s hard to know where to start and where to go from there.

A homeschooling mother of five and founder of 1000 Hours Outside, Ginny Yurich draws from her years of experience and research, as well as her master’s degree in education from the University of Michigan, to encourage and equip parents who want to give homeschooling a try or want to improve their experience.

Starting from the standpoint of “you’re doing it right” instead of “you’re doing it wrong,” Ginny helps parents understand that just by choosing to homeschool they are:

– learning through living
– allowing for individual timelines
– leaving space for boredom
– providing multiage experiences
– teaching self-reliance
– offering freedom
– slowing down
– and more

If you’ve been on the fence about homeschooling or wondering if you’re doing it all wrong, let Ginny encourage you in all you’ve already accomplished and equip you for even greater things ahead.

Sometimes You Stay
$18.99

He was never going to leave the island, and she wasn’t going to stay. But if she walked away, she would always wonder . . .

For digital content creator Cretia Martin, home is wherever her carry-on suitcase lands. And it’s constantly landing in new places as she travels the world. She’s never been interested in settling in one spot–after all, houses are just places that collect junk and tie you down. But when she literally bumps into local dog breeder Finn Chaffey on Prince Edward Island and all the tools of her trade end up in the harbor, she can’t exactly leave until she gets things sorted out.

Finn is horrified by the part he played in the accident and offers to help, arranging for Cretia to stay with a friend at the beautiful Red Door Inn. The longer Cretia is forced to remain in one place, the more she discovers what she’s been missing with life on the road–and the more she wants to see Finn and his business succeed. But helping him means staying put, the one thing she always swore she wouldn’t do, and risking the only thing she’s never put on the line–her heart.
