Living In Gods True Story
$14.99Add to cartWe all need a reminder of the true story at the heart of the gospel.
In the face of false teachers and skeptics, Peter wrote his second epistle to remind his readers of God’s true story. They needed to be reoriented to the truth of their identity and status in Christ. Christians continue to experience similar challenges to our spiritual foundations today.
In Living in God’s True Story: 2 Peter, Donald L. Morcom shows that remembering the truth is the core theme of Peter’s second letter. In the midst of false alternatives, he encourages believers to live faithful lives that demonstrate love and wisdom. Though it may be short, 2 Peter is an impactful letter that explains how we can order our lives in accordance with God’s true story.

Walking In Gods Wisdom
$14.99Add to cartGet wisdom, get insight (Prov 4:5)
The book of Proverbs is an invitation to get wisdom. But wisdom isn’t so easily defined or found. Without discernment, we can be swayed by teachers or sayings that sound wise, but true biblical wisdom is rooted in the fear of the Lord.
In Walking with God’s Wisdom, Benjamin T. Quinn calls us to hear and obey God’s wisdom found in Proverbs. These ancient words reveal a way of life exemplified in Jesus Christ. Quinn shows how even the most ordinary aspects of life are packed with importance for wise living before God.

Deserting The King
$12.99Add to cartThe book of Judges can pose many puzzles for readers today: who were the “judges”? Why was this book written, and how does it fit into the biblical narrative? And how can the story it tells–one of bloodshed, intrigue, and rejection of Yahweh’s authority–change our understanding of God today? Deserting the Crown guides readers through the difficulties that the book of Judges can pose for readers as it traces both the evil and redemption present in Israel’s approach to kingship–and, by extension, God. And while examining the book’s structure and key themes, author David Beldman draws in stories from his life and the world today, showing how this Old Testament book, in its darkness and heroism, gives us a lens to see God’s at work throughout history.
