How The Church Fathers Read The Bible
$24.99
Read the Scriptures with the insight of our forebears
Christians live in the house built by the church fathers. The fathers’ reading of the Scriptures shaped key doctrines that are essential to Christianity. But appreciating how the fathers read the Bible is not just for the historically curious, as if it were only a matter of literary archaeology. Nor should it be intimidating. Rather, the fathers gleaned insights from Scripture that continue to be relevant to all Christians.
How the Church Fathers Read the Bible is an accessible introduction to help you read Scripture with the early church. With a clear and simple style, Gerald Bray explains the distinctives of early Christian interpretation and shows how the fathers interpreted key Bible passages from Genesis to Revelation. Their unique perspective is summed up in seven principles that can inspire our Bible reading today. With Bray as your guide, you can reclaim the rich insights of the fathers with reverence and discernment.

From the depths of a debilitating illness, Jenness has written the joys she’s discovered as she has clung to the Light of Christ in the darkness of suffering; one of which happened to be her ability to create “healthy” treats and sweets that sacrifice the guilt, but NOT the taste. Having to eat differently to cater to her health’s demands, Jenness began to create recipes specifically designed for those, with a myriad of health issues, and found the means to make them in such a way that will make ANY mouth water and hunger for more!
So, if you’re looking for recipes to create “Life’s Lemonade,” look no further than Nessipees, a beautifully inspiring and tasty 21-Day devotional cookbook that will feed your heart and your health.

Walking In Truth In A World Of Lies
$15.99Add to cartYou and I are being lied to on a regular basis. In fact, our entire culture is riddled with duplicity.
Scripture warns repeatedly of deception on a massive scale in the Last Days, so why are Christians seemingly so unconcerned? Has their access to theological information and their acceptance of orthodox doctrine caused them to believe they are impervious to being deceived?
There is only one way to stay safe from the deceiver’s powerful lies: We must allow the “love of the truth” to hold sway in our innermost being. Only then will we be capable of Walking in Truth in a World of Lies.
