Benefit Of Doubt
Original price was: $29.99.$17.97Current price is: $17.97.God can handle your difficult questions and use them to deepen your relationship with him.
“Am I the only one who has these doubts? What if my friends, family, or others find out I’m doubting–and even deconstructing–my faith in God? What is really true? Does it make me a bad Christian if I have doubts?” At some point, almost all of us have had questions about Christianity and doubts about God. We’re afraid we might never find answers, yet we aren’t sure if we are ready to abandon our faith altogether.
Bestselling author and pastor Craig Groeschel has walked through the valley of doubt himself, and in The Benefit of Doubt, he shows us how asking questions, seeking answers, and wrestling with doubt can actually draw us closer to God. With his trademark humor, warmth, and lay-it-all-on-the-table style, Groeschel shares stories from his own life as well as the Bible to help us wrestle with–and find helpful answers to–the questions fueling our doubt:
*What should I do when I doubt God’s goodness?
*Why doesn’t God answer my prayers?
*Doesn’t science disprove the Bible?
*Why would God only provide one way to heaven?
*Why believe in Jesus when his followers are such hypocrites?
*Why does God sometimes feel so far away?Doubt is an important part of deepening your faith, but that doesn’t make it an easy process to walk through. If you’re wrestling with doubts, this book, along with God’s transformative power, will help you develop a richer faith, a deeper understanding, and a more authentic relationship with God.

Art Of Disagreeing

This is a much-needed message in a society that is losing the ability to disagree well. Whether over politics, religion, culture, or the more everyday issues of normal life, points of view tend to be held with a polarizing intensity. Too often we view disagreements as must-win contests or we simply do our best to avoid them altogether.
Looking to Jesus’ example of courage and kindness, readers will be given a framework for engaging in intense disagreements with a love that furthers relationships instead of hindering them.
So, whether you tend to fight or flee, learn how to keep calm and stay friends–even when you disagree.

This Light Of Mine
$14.99If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do? Psalm 11:3
Followers of Christ have every right to be concerned about the troubling shifts in our culture. On nearly every front things are different. Much of what we see is a direct contradiction to divinely revealed truth and the convictions we hold dear. At times, we feel like we’ve lost the battle for what’s good and right.
The challenge for us now? To respond in ways that communicate the gospel without alienating people who need to hear about the good news of Christ’s redemptive work. Unfortunately, many of us have responded with a sense of hopelessness and despair. Others have entwined evangelicalism with political alignments. Both strategies have made our message less than attractive and have betrayed the hope we have to offer a world gone wrong.
This Light of Mine is a call to evangelicals to pivot from being consumed in a battle for our earthly kingdom and to embrace the privilege of advancing the kingdom of Christ. Drawing from the Scriptures and the life of Jesus, Joe Stowell provides a hope-filled, courageous response that empowers us to light up the darkness by living like Jesus in a non-Jesus world.

Path To Knowing God
$15.99Can We Really Know God?
Renowned international Bible teacher Derek Prince affirms that we can know God and that there is a clear path to doing so. He unfolds from Scripture what it means to know God intimately, become united with Him in His purposes, and commit ourselves to living for Him fully.
Prince explains our need to know God personally and experientially so that we can have true life and fellowship with Him–and then understand what He is calling us to be and do. “There is a calling for every saved person,” he says, “a special way of life, a special task, a special responsibility.”
This book describes the various steps to knowing God and having a right relationship with Him–and reveals what proceeds from that close relationship. We experience real strength and stability only from knowing God. As we earnestly seek Him, His wisdom, and His ways above all else, we will increasingly come to understand His mind and heart. Those whom Christ has redeemed are God’s own special people, and He has made us a kingdom of priests to help bring the peaceful rule of His kingdom to individuals and nations. The dark forces of the enemy are encroaching on the world in many ways, blinding people to their true purpose and enslaving them in empty pursuits. God calls us to take part–through intercession and sharing the gospel message–in bringing them His light and setting them free so that they, too, can know God and live wholeheartedly for Him.

Today Is A Verb
$16.99None of us knows how long we have on this earth. Sometimes, the days seem to pass by with little importance; at other times, we might feel overwhelmed by our experiences, whether they bring us happiness or sorrow. In the end, however, we allow our days and years to march on.
But what if we intentionally view each today as a gift from God? What if we considered today as a verb, an action that we can use right now?
In Today Is a Verb: Open the Gift of Now in Every Ordinary Moment, author Carol McLeod asks us to grab hold of God’s endless gift of time–past, present, and future–and make the most of every moment and every minute. For this gift from God is truly as boundless as the ocean. The act of living can bring us joy if we seek to listen to God, read His Word, and pray for the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Today Is a Verb can propel us to our destiny, to God’s desire for us. As Carol explains, each moment can be something profound, purposeful, and precious. We can choose each day to pray, to serve, to hope, to trust, to overcome–the possibilities are endless.
Today Is a Verb can be read as a thirty-day devotional or as a way to revolutionize your life. Each chapter includes a life quote, a verse from Scripture, a practical application, and a daily declaration.
“This dimension of godly living…is not for the faint of heart but for all of those who have determined their lives will smack of the atmosphere of heaven,” Carol says.
“If you have been thirsty for a joy that is foreign to your personality and seems to be only a mirage in the desert of life, I hope this scintillating philosophy will stir up what has been lacking in your life,” she says. “Perhaps, with me, you would be brave enough to determine to take at least one vibrant step toward the life for which you have been aching.”
