Lost Words And Forgotten Worlds
$28.99

Unearthing the unfamiliar world behind the Bible

*Reencounter the Bible and its ancient and unfamiliar world
*Discern fact from fable about the Dead Sea Scrolls
*Discover how the Scrolls continue to mystify and revolutionize
*Learn how the Scrolls changed the ways we translate and read the Bible

The Dead Sea Scrolls are a window into an unfamiliar ancient culture and a mirror that reflects our own strange world back to ourselves. The Scrolls simultaneously challenge and confirm what we thought we knew about the Bible, both its worlds and its very words. Though first recovered in 1947, their story continues to unfurl.

In Lost Words and Forgotten Worlds: Rediscovering the Dead Sea Scrolls, Andrew B. Perrin reintroduces readers to the Scrolls while correcting common misunderstandings and highlighting overlooked issues. Perrin’s tour spans the traditions of ancient Judaism and extends to the “big business” of modern antiquities trading–and the surprising number of forgeries on display in our museums. Along the way, he debunks popular myths and conspiracies.

Bray’s tour spans from the early church to the present, pointing out impacts on the church, academy, and society. Athens and Jerusalem offers a lively and accessible chronicle of the relationship between philosophy and theology and how we can think about both today.

Symbols And Reality
$16.97

This is the fifth of a six-volume series called Reading the Bible as Literature. In this volume, the author not only explores the intersection of the Bible and literature, but he also shows pastors, students, and teachers of the Bible how to appreciate the craftsmanship of visionary literature and prophetic oracles and how to interpret them correctly. Dr. Ryken goes one step further than merely explaining the genre by including exercises to help students master this rich literary treasure. Speaking of the entire series, Ryken says, “The niche that these volumes are designed to fill is the literary approach to the Bible. This has been my scholarly passion for nearly half a century. It is my belief that a literary approach to the Bible is the common reader’s friend, in contract to the more specialized types of scholarship on the Bible.”

Silence The Lion
$22.99

This book is the testimony of my husband’s freedom from twenty years of substance abuse addiction in one day. It is unique in that it is not just a testimony, nor is it just a guide instructing people struggling with addiction on what they should do to see freedom. Instead, it is a mesh of our story interwoven with reflections and reflection questions throughout the book. It is designed to tell our story and prompt readers to draw their own conclusions through self-reflection without simply telling them what to do.

Halfway through the book, addiction is named “The Lion,” with references to Daniel in the den of lions, and the reader begins to see addiction as the enemy sent from Satan, allowing them to separate themselves from their identity as an addict. The remainder of the book continually references addiction as “The Lion.” Each chapter is titled from an excerpt of a biblical scripture immediately following it.

The goal in writing the book is for those struggling with substance abuse to be able to come to freedom by: Discovering where their true identity lies, determining who the enemy is, surrendering to Christ, removing shame and guilt, tearing down the hardened walls around their hearts, cutting off any bitter roots, casting off unforgiveness, stepping into their new identities, and silencing the lies of the enemy: The Lion.

1st Love Second Draft
$17.99

She’s a romance writer burned out on love. He’s her famous baseball star ex-husband. The last man she wants to be forced to work with is the one who broke her heart.

Rom-com writer Gracie Parker hasn’t written a bestseller since she and her husband, a major league baseball star, divorced five years ago. On thin ice with her publisher–and with a looming deadline–Gracie couldn’t have picked a worse time for a painful injury that has her flat on her back. At this point, she’d accept help from anybody . . . except her first love and ex-husband, Noah Parker.

The baseball season has just ended in massive disappointment for Noah. He’s facing the stark reality that he gave up everything for a career that’s let him down and that it might be too late to get back the one person he should’ve held on to. So when Gracie’s nephew calls, saying Gracie’s looking for a tenant for her next-door rental, it feels like it’s meant to be.

All Gracie cares about is turning in her manuscript on time, which is directly at odds with Noah’s attempts to win her back, even if she is slightly charmed by his kindness. But can people ever really change? Then Noah throws a curveball that could give Gracie the extension she needs, but it will mean working directly with Noah, something she’s not sure she can face. With no other choice, and everything on the line, Gracie must decide if it is too late for a second draft of their own love story.

This Promised Land
$17.99

When she ran away as a young war bride, she was cut off from her family forever . . . or so she believed. Decades later, maybe the only way to move on is to go home.

Ginny Pickering Boyden can’t wait for her last day of work, when she’ll be free to pursue a lifelong ambition through a master gardener apprenticeship. But an unexpected letter brings shocking news: Ginny has inherited her family’s Christmas tree farm, a dream she’d long ago given up.

Facing a past laced with memories and lies she’s tried hard to bury, a furious nephew who thought the land would be his, and a failing farm with a mountain of debt, Ginny returns to New Scrivelsby, Virginia, determined to sell. But when her younger nephew, a Vietnam vet, appears with demons of his own and three young children in tow, Ginny isn’t sure what to do. Too much of their story reminds Ginny of her own. She has little hope, however, that three generations of warring Pickerings can set aside their differences to restore all that’s broken, both on the land and in their hearts.

Set against the beautiful and rugged landscape of the Blue Ridge Mountains, This Promised Land is the story of a daughter’s longing to make sense of the past and of the unbreakable bonds that bring prodigals home.

*A modern take on the prodigal son story, written by a four-time Christy award-winning author
*Contains discussion questions ideal for book clubs

End Of Mental Illness
$18.99

PUBLISHER’S WEEKLY and USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD and more.

Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn’t much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either. Meanwhile, the stigma of the “mental illness” label-damaging and devastating on its own-can often prevent sufferers from getting the help they need.

Brain specialist and bestselling author Dr. Daniel Amen is on the forefront of a new movement within medicine and related disciplines that aims to change all that. In The End of Mental Illness, Dr. Amen draws on the latest findings of neuroscience to challenge an outdated psychiatric paradigm and help readers take control and improve the health of their own brain, minimizing or reversing conditions that may be preventing them from living a full and emotionally healthy life.

The End of Mental Illness will help you discover:
*Why labeling someone as having a “mental illness” is not only inaccurate but harmful

*Why standard treatment may not have helped you or a loved one-and why diagnosing and treating you based on your symptoms alone so often misses the true cause of those symptoms and results in poor outcomes

*At least 100 simple things you can do yourself to heal your brain and prevent or reverse the problems that are making you feel sad, mad, or bad

*How to identify your “brain type” and what you can do to optimize your particular type

*Where to find the kind of health provider who understands and uses the new paradigm of brain health
