  • New Morning Mercies:  $13.00

    Mornings can be tough. Sometimes, a hearty breakfast and strong cup of coffee just aren’t enough. This devotional energizes you with the most potent encouragement imaginable: the gospel. Forget “behavior modification” or feel-good aphorisms. What we really need is an encounter with the living God. Then we’ll be prepared to trust in God’s goodness, rely on his grace, and live for his glory each and every day.

  • *No Reason to Hide:  $13.00

    In a culture with an ever-narrowing definition of tolerance, Christians can no longer stay silent about the divide between the Bible’s truth and the world’s lies. From bestselling author Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer, No Reason to Hide examines the toxic roots behind the alarming symptoms of a nation in spiritual freefall—and why your faith must empower you to engage rather than hide. As you read, you’ll be equipped to defend your biblical beliefs with confidence and compassion. 

  • *So What's the difference?: $12.00

    Christianity. Islam. Buddhism. Jehovah's Witnesses. Judaism. Mormonism. Hinduism. With so many world religions, it's no wonder people get confused. Now revised for the 21st century, Ridenour's 1967 classic---with its clear, non-critical comparison---sets the record straight. You'll appreciate his reader-friendly style as he discusses various beliefs to help you better understand your own faith. This book helps equip the believer to know their faith more deeply and to share the gospel more effectively through insight into what other world religions believe.

A Bible like no other, The Jesus Storybook Bible invites children to join in the greatest of all adventures, to discover for themselves that Jesus is at the center of God's great story of salvation--and at the center of their own story too! This Bible is a great tool that parents can use to begin equipping their young children with the truth of God’s Word.

  • *The Power of Prayer and Fasting:  $11.00

    The hand-in-hand spiritual discipline of prayer and fasting is not a gimmick or a spiritual fad, although its neglect in recent decades makes it a new discovery for many Christians. Instead, as author Ronnie Floyd explains, prayer and fasting is a Scripture-ordained act of obedience—a means of humbling ourselves before God, drawing closer to Him, and making room for Him to speak and act in our lives.

  • *The reason for God: $11.00

    How could a loving God send people to hell? Why does he allow suffering? Can one religion be "right" and the others "wrong"? Responding to the questions of open skeptics and ardent believers, Keller draws from literature, philosophy, reason, and real-life conversations to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief. This book helps equip believers to know the reason for their faith by giving answers to some of the big questions about the Truth. 

  • *Transforming Prayer:  $13.50

    Praying Christians are hungry to learn how to connect with God in a way that takes them beyond the typical grocery-list approach. This book explores the profound difference between seeking God's hand (what he does for people) and seeking God's face (who he really is). With stories of the transformative power of personal worship and its connection with prayer, this book equips readers with practical tools for a more effective personal and corporate prayer life.

  • *World religions in a nutshell: $12.00

    Leading someone to Christ, if they are of another faith, often requires an understanding of their belief system. Ray Comfort provides essential information for eight major religious systems (including Roman Catholicism, and Modern Christianity) that differ from a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Includes written dialogues between a believer and someone from each faith to help understand how to conduct a conversation about salvation.

  • Operation WOrld:  $5.00

  • Can We Trust the Gospels?:  $12.00

    Can We Trust the Gospels? is an introduction to the historical and theological reliability of the Gospels for skeptics, scholars—and everybody in between. Peter J. Williams answers questions about how the accounts were handed down throughout history and addresses objections that they're historical fiction, were imposed on the early church by a council, or were simply created to fit existing messianic prophecies.

  • Well Versed:  $16.50

    "I believe that the Bible speaks not merely to personal, family, and church issues, but to national, community, and governmental issues if we would take the time to listen." -James L. Garlow

    Conservative Christians admit that they do not speak out on political or cultural issues because they do not know how to support their beliefs from a biblical basis, according to a recent poll. Instead, they remain silent on critical issues like marriage, racism, and transgender issues because they feel uninformed and ill-equipped to defend their beliefs.
