Becoming Elisabeth Elliot
$24.99Add to cartElisabeth Elliot was a young missionary in Ecuador when members of a violent Amazonian tribe savagely speared her husband Jim and his four colleagues. Incredibly, prayerfully, Elisabeth took her toddler daughter, snakebite kit, Bible, and journal . . . and lived in the jungle with the Stone-Age people who killed her husband. Compelled by her friendship and forgiveness, many came to faith in Jesus.
This courageous, no-nonsense Christian went on to write dozens of books, host a long-running radio show, and speak at conferences all over the world. She was a pillar of coherent, committed faith; a beloved and sometimes controversial icon. In this authorized biography, Becoming Elisabeth Elliot, bestselling author Ellen Vaughn uses Elisabeth’s private, unpublished journals, and candid interviews with her family and friends, to paint the adventures and misadventures God used to shape one of the most influential women in modern church history. It’s the story of a hilarious, sensual, brilliant, witty, self-deprecating, sensitive, radical, and surprisingly relatable person utterly submitted to doing God’s will, no matter how high the cost. For Elisabeth, the central question was not, How does this make me feel? but, simply, is this true? If so, then the next question was, what do I need to do about it to obey God?
My life is on Thy Altar, Lord-for Thee to consume. Set the fire, Father! Bind me with cords of love to the Altar. Hold me there. Let me remember the Cross. -Elisabeth Elliot, age 21 Continue Reading Becoming Elisabeth Elliot

Tyre The Invincible
$19.99Add to cartThis book will astonish you as you embark on an amazing journey of discovery about one of the greatest cities of ancient times. Tyre is referred to seventy times in the Bible and more than seven chapters of the Bible are dedicated to Tyre. Why is this place so significant?

This Restored Heart
$10.99Add to cartThis book is a testimony to God’s grace in my life. He is no respecter of persons and pours His grace out in all of our lives. My journey begins in my early years, growing up in a dysfunctional family, as many of us have, through some marriages that ended in divorce, and a failed business venture that took me completely down financially.
Through all my pride, self-reliance, and resulting mistakes, He never took His hand of grace, mercy, and love off of me. He blessed me with two wonderful daughters, a wise grandmother, an amazing father, and several others at the right time in my life. Sometimes the blessings of our lives occur so subtly, so gradually, that we fail to acknowledge them until after the fact, when we are able to view the whole picture from start to finish. One of those blessings is how He is restoring me today, in every area of my life!
God is not at all taken by surprise by our circumstances, in fact, the very event that threatens to delay our blessing’s arrival by years could well be a Divine setup for a time-lapse blessing. Don’t view the season you’re in with disdain. Regeneration doesn’t occur without a dying or cutting off first! You’ll look back at your time-lapsed blessing, having come away with so much more for having had to wait, and you’ll breathe the words, Wow…You knew what You were doing the whole time!
‘And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. (Galatians 6:9 AMP) Continue Reading This Restored Heart

The University of Notre Dame is a special place, regarded by many as the world’s top Catholic institution of higher learning.

James 1 : The Fool As King
$20.00Add to cartThis is the first of four volumes on extraordinary fools whose follies influenced the course of all our lives. Without them, history would have been different, and our lives would today be lived along patterns beyond our powers to imagine.
James I and VI was a great fool. He threw away a tremendous inheritance and a superb opportunity for the basest of motives, while indulging himself in the comforts of the sewer. While bemusing his subjects with windy references to peace, he led them impotent disarmament before a crumbling Spain. Finally, he trained his doltish heir into a pattern of kingly behavior that provoked a civil war.
Beyond that, James was a fool in the Biblical sense, in believing that there is no God. He called himself The Prince of Peace, and dreamed of sitting down with the Pope to rule the minds of all mankind. He spoke of his Divine Right in a transparent effort to ward away the fate of his mother, and finally, he sought the power of God over other men.

Christmas In Plains
$10.00Add to cartJimmy Carter remembers Christmas in Plains — a source of spiritual inspiration, respite, family ties, friendship, vacation fun, and the simplicity of community. In a beautifully rendered portrait of very special Christmases, Carter begins by returning to his early years in Plains. With only one exception in the following 48 years, the Carters have always been in Plains on Christmas Day. In 1980, with Americans held hostage in Iran, Jimmy, Rosalynn, and Amy went by themselves to Camp David and felt lonely. At Amy’s suggestion, they invited the White House staff and their families to join them and created their own version of Christmas in Plains.

1776
$35.00Add to cartAmerica’s beloved and distinguished historian presents, in a book of breathtaking excitement, drama, and narrative force, the stirring story of the year of our nation’s birth, 1776, interweaving, on both sides of the Atlantic, the actions and decisions that led Great Britain to undertake a war against her rebellious colonial subjects and that placed America’s survival in the hands of George Washington.
In this masterful book, David McCullough tells the intensely human story of those who marched with General George Washington in the year of the Declaration of Independence-when the whole American cause was riding on their success, without which all hope for independence would have been dashed and the noble ideals of the Declaration would have amounted to little more than words on paper.
Based on extensive research in both American and British archives, 1776 is a powerful drama written with extraordinary narrative vitality. It is the story of Americans in the ranks, men of every shape, size, and color, farmers, schoolteachers, shoemakers, no-accounts, and mere boys turned soldiers. And it is the story of the King’s men, the British commander, William Howe, and his highly disciplined redcoats who looked on their rebel foes with contempt and fought with a valor too little known.
Written as a companion work to his celebrated biography of John Adams, David McCullough’s 1776 is another landmark in the literature of American history. Continue Reading 1776
Back To Earth
$16.95Add to cartBack to Earth is the powerful, personal journey of a man in his middle years who senses that he has drifted away from the ideals of his youth and who must now search for coherence, belief, and a renewed spirituality following the breakup of his marriage and family.

I Am Restored
$26.99Add to cartThe never-before-told story of Lecrae’s loss of faith after the experiences of his past threatened to ruin his career and life.
Two-time GRAMMY winning hip-hop artist and bestselling author Lecrae had inspired millions with his redemptive and gut-honest art. But when his personal life spun into chaos, he was forced to face the buried impact of the unhealed wounds–sexual abuse, physical trauma, addiction, and depression–that threatened to tear it all apart. Along the way, he realized the wounds we all carry have the potential to be unlikely guides to healing and freedom for ourselves, and others.
With vulnerable honesty and transformational yet simple steps you can apply today, Lecrae shares the personal practices he uses in his daily life for mental, emotional, and spiritual health. With powerful prose, he gives an unflinching look at the personal and public spaces that sadly hurt us so often–culture, politics, family, church, personal failure–and reminds us that learning to let go and forgive is the birthplace for the life of creativity and freedom God has for us.
I Am Restored is an inspiring charge to embrace the lasting healing and restoration available now, and that we all desperately long for, because no matter what you’ve experienced, God is near, He hears, and He’s not done with you yet. Continue Reading I Am Restored
Amazing Grace : The Story Of Americas Most Beloved Song
$14.99Add to cartBehind our most beloved hymn is a fascinating story spanning continents, cultures, and centuries. Inspired by the way Amazing Grace continues to change and grow in popularity, acclaimed music writer Steve Turner embarks on a journey to trace the life of the hymn, from Olney, England, where it was written by former slave trader John Newton, to tiny Plantain Island off the coast of Africa, where Newton was held captive for almost a year, to the Kentucky-Tennessee border and other parts of the South, where the hymn first began to spread.
Newton had been rescued from Africa by a merchant ship when, during an eleven-hour storm on the Atlantic, he converted to Christianity. Years later, as a minister, he wrote the hymn for use among his congregation. Through the nineteenth century, Amazing Grace appeared in more and more hymn books, and in the twentieth century it rose to a gospel and folk standard before exploding into pop music. It has been recorded by artists as varied as Elvis Presley, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Tiny Tim, Al Green, Johnny Cash, Rod Stewart, Chet Baker, and Destiny’s Child. Amazing Grace closely examines this modern history of the hymn through personal interviews with recording artists.
From John Newton’s incredible life story to the hymn’s role in American spirituality and culture, Amazing Grace is an illuminating, thorough, and unprecedented musical history. Continue Reading Amazing Grace : The Story Of Americas Most Beloved Song

William Wilberforce
$17.00Add to cartWilliam Wilberforce fue uno de los mayores reformistas filantro?picos en los inicios de la Inglaterra victoriana. Pero el camino para lograr la abolicio?n del tra?fico de esclavos y la esclavitud no fue sencillo, sino que supuso muchos momentos de dificultad. La lucha de Wilberforce parecia en todos los sentidos una causa perdida, pero si algo caracterizo la vida de este politico fue la perseverancia frente a tantos intereses que hacian de su lucha un esfuerzo inutil. Las propuestas de Wilberforce fueron derrotadas una y otra vez en el Parlamento, hasta que, por un extrao giro de la Providencia, se gano la votacion en 1807, que acabo con el trafico de personas. La experiencia de Wilberforce es un poderoso testimonio de que el nuevo nacimiento lleva a amar intensamente a Dios y a los demas. La lucha por la justicia nace de una experiencia de la Gracia de Dios en Jesucristo, porque la justicia en la Biblia va mas alla de la correccion de aquello que esta mal; incluye la generosidad y la preocupacion por el debil, que refleja el caracter de Dios.

Orando para conseguir hasta el ultimo centimo de los costes, George Muller superviso la construccion de cinco grandes orfanatos-que aun se conservan-dando alojamiento a miles de nios. George Muller fue un predicador y misionero ingles nacido en Prusia, destacado por su obra en favor de los nios desamparados.?En 1836, Muller y su esposa inician un orfanato, estableciendo en su propia casa una especie de albergue para treinta nias. La obra continuo creciendo, al punto que fue necesario construir un edificio distinto, terminado en 1849, con capacidad para 300 nios y nias. Veintiun aos despues, cerca de 2.000 nios estaban hospedados en cinco hogares de este tipo. Ahora estoy mas convencido que nunca, que la historia de George Muller no es solo uno de los episodios mas relevantes de la historia de la Iglesia cristiana, sino tambien una respuesta contundente para el escepticismo del siglo XXI.

Nothing Short Of A Miracle
$19.95Add to cart25 Chapters
Additional Info
God doesn’t need us humans to work miracles for Him, but as veteran Catholic author Patricia Treece shows here, it certainly seems His good pleasure to perform great miracles by means of human prayers and human hands, and particularly by means of the prayers and hands of His saints.A quarter century in the making, Treece America’s most experienced and revered saint-watcher has gathered in these pages countless fascinating true reports of miraculous healings brought about in our lifetimes through the saints.
Among them is the complete 2005 cure of Sr. Marie Simon-Pierre’s advanced Parkinson’s Disease after she appealed for healing to the just-deceased Pope John Paul II. After intense scrutiny, the Vatican declared her healing miraculous, leading to John Paul’s beatification.
Here, too, are tales of scores of lesser-known healings brought to light by Treece’s own investigations into little-known official Vatican documents as well as from her many interviews with living witnesses of miraculous healings, including several conversations with souls whose healings have been accepted by the Vatican as grounds for canonization of their healers.
When faced with a woman skeptical about whether she could be cured, the healer Solanus Casey is reported to have said, Don’t you know that God can cure cancer just as easily as the common cold?
Not only can God do this. These pages show that He is doing it . . . so often and so obviously that even in our day miraculous healings regularly give pause to the most hardened skeptics, and bring joy to the hearts of believers who rightly see in these healings overwhelming and continuing evidence of God’s providential love for each and every one of us. May they bring joy to your heart, as well, and renew the confidence in His love that God yearns for you to have!

Noah Webster And The Reformation Of America
$6.95Add to cartNoah Webster affected the course of education in early America more than any other person. He wrote a series of textbooks including a speller, grammar, reader, and U.S. history. His famous Blue-Back Speller sold over 100 million copies from 1783 through the 1800s, and was designed to allow individuals to be self-taught. Webster wrote the first exhaustive English dictionary, translated his own version of the Bible, helped to found a college, started the first magazine in America, and formed a newspaper. He was one of the first persons to publicly promote a constitutional convention in the 1780s. He secured copyright legislation on the state and national levels, and he served in civil government in many capacities.
Webster spent his entire adult life working to reform America and to provide a foundation of liberty, happiness, and prosperity for all citizens. He understood that ideas have consequences, that the battle for the future of our country would be waged in the market place of ideas, and that those adhering to Godly truth must enter into the battle in every conceivable sphere. Webster’s life gives us a great example of how to bring reform to America, or any nation, today. A look at his life and accomplishments reveal what we need to do, where we need to be involved, strategies for bringing reform, proper motives and reasons for action, and the fruit we can expect from planting Godly seeds.

Abraham Lincolns Faith
$6.95Add to cartWas Abraham Lincoln a Christian? Did he believe the Bible was the inspired word of God?
William Herdon, Lincoln’s law partner for about 18 years, said of him: As to Mr. Lincoln’s religious views, he was, in short, an infidel….Mr. Lincoln told me a thousand time that he did not believe the Bible was the revelation of God as the Christian world contends. One biographer records of Lincoln that when he went to church, he went to mock and came away a mimic.
Yet, Rev. James Smith, the pastor of the church in Springfield where Lincoln attended for over 10 years, gives a much different picture. He writes: It is a very easy matter to prove that while I was pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Springfield, Mr. Lincoln did avow his belief in the divine authority and inspiration of the Scriptures. His pastor while he was President, Dr. Gurley wrote: I considered him sound not only on the truth of the Christian religion but on all its fundamental doctrines and teaching.
Which of these views is right? Why the contrary views? These questions and more are answered in Abraham Lincoln’s Faith.

Crutch Of Success
$16.99Add to cartBorn in Korea in 1956 soon after the end of the Korean War, Steve Stirling was stricken with polio at age one when his father unknowingly brought the virus home after consoling a friend whose child had contracted the disease. Steve survived; the son of his father’s friend did not. Marital and financial struggles caused Steve’s father to leave him at an orphanage when he was five. Three weeks later, his three-year-old sister was left there as well.
After four years, they were adopted by an American couple, Jim and Lynn Stirling, who settled in Anchorage, Alaska. The Stirlings now had seven children, all but one of whom was adopted.
Steve’s legs were paralyzed but his mind was sharp. He excelled in school, earned degrees at Cornell and Northwestern universities, and married. He and his wife, Sook Hee, moved from city to city as Steve moved up the corporate ladder with several Fortune 500 companies. They had two children and plenty of money, but their marriage was not happy.
Then they came to a saving faith in Jesus and their lives changed forever. They traveled to Korea and miraculously located Steve’s birth family. On a subsequent trip to visit the orphanage where he had grown up, Steve encountered a fellow handicapped orphan who had also become a Christian and his words caused Steve to rethink his life direction. He decided to shift his executive career away from the corporate world in order to devote his energies to nonprofit charities, working for World Vision and several others. Now he is the executive director for MAP (Medical Assistance Programs) International, based in Georgia, and spends as much time as possible spreading the gospel message as well as distributing medical assistance to developing countries. For me, joining the MAP family feels like ‘coming home,’ he says. It’s a culmination of my personal and professional life experiences.
A vial of polio vaccine costing sixty cents could have prevented Steve from contracting the disease.
Steve’s favorite Bible verse is Ephesians 2:10: For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them (nas). He sees God’s hand bringing all the elements of his life together perfectly for His purpose.

Leaving Buddha : A Tibetan Monks Encounter With The Living God
$15.99Add to cartAs a child, Tenzin Lahkpa (pseudonym) was forced to join a Buddhist monastery, where he suffered beatings and abuse. Even so, he grew to up to be a dedicated, fervent follower of Buddha, becoming an official reader of the sacred texts and a trainer of students at the monastery. Yearning to visit the Potala Palace in Tibet, traditional home of the Dalai Lamas, he embarks on a painstaking 2000-mile trek over the Himalayas–with no extra gear, changes of clothing, or money–alternately standing and bowing prostrate each yard of the way. Inspired to continue his pilgrimage, he travels to India to meet with the renowned teachers of the Dalai Lama school. But the people he is supposed to meet have left, and the only ones remaining there are some Christians–from whom he hears for the first time about Jesus Christ and His sacrifice on the cross. On his return trip to Tibet, he begins to have dreams and visions about Christ…
This is the fascinating story of a highly dedicated Tibetan Buddhist monk who makes the radical, almost unheard-of decision to leave his monastery and follow after Jesus Christ. His hometown neighbors and former colleagues want him dead. His own family members abduct him and try to kill him by stoning. But Tenzin escapes and begins a new pilgrimage as a humble follower of Jesus and a church leader–sharing the love of God as one of only thirty Christians living among eight million Buddhists in his region.
Leaving Buddha opens a window on the mysterious world of Buddhism. But ultimately, it is a moving story of redemption, reconciliation, and the power of the gospel–for all people of all nations. Continue Reading Leaving Buddha : A Tibetan Monks Encounter With The Living God

Paul’s travels take him from Bali to Thailand to India; from surfing to scooters to red light districts; from an anguished reunion with his brother, to a lonely isolation in paradise, to companionship from unlikely locals; from the extravagant love of an orphanage, to the end of a precious relationship.

My Journey Beyond Being Catholic
$11.99Add to cartBeing part of the Catholic religion was a fundamental aspect of my identity for nearly fifty years. Never being one to question those in authority, I clung to the comfort of what I had been taught and the security of adhering to Catholic doctrine.
Being Catholic in and of itself isn’t wrong. Rather, I wrote this book to first of all encourage others who left, or are considering leaving Catholicism. Second, I wish to share what was revealed to me as the fundamental difference between Catholicism and Christianity. In reading this book, it is my hope that my dear Catholic friends may know, that in spite of the route I chose, there can be such a thing as Catholic Christianity.
Thinking back, I can still remember the particular moment when it occurred to me that although I was a good person, went to church, and didn’t sin much, I was not absolutely sure I was going to heaven. That realization was pivotal in my journey, as I began to allow truth to take root that did not mesh well with my otherwise comfortable Catholic religion.
The events, circumstances, and relationships that make up my journey do not at the outset appear spectacular or amazing in any way. However, putting my life on paper allowed me to view with awe and wonder the way God pursued my heart. When seen as a whole, a most remarkable image evolves, depicting how God has lovingly drawn me to Himself.I am thankful for the opportunity to share the story with you, and hope that regardless of your religion, you are wholeheartedly stepping out in faith and embracing Jesus Christ as your only hope of salvation. The reward is sweet, my dear friend, and you only stand to gain from what He has done. My sincere hope is that all readers, regardless of their own journey, will be richly encouraged by my own life’s journey. Continue Reading My Journey Beyond Being Catholic
Born Rejected

Blessed with devoted parents, a faithful best friend, a brand-new house in a well-kept suburban development, she had much to be thankful for. No one could have predicted the downward spiral her life would take as she was blindsided by one loss after another.
In this gripping memoir, Alicia describes her descent into a lifestyle marked, and marred, by a litany of destructive behaviors: Alcoholism, drug use, immoral sexual relationships (including those that were monogamous), having children out of wedlock, an affair with a married man, jumping from one relationship to another, nightclubbing, an abortion, and idolizing whatever mattered most at the time-you name it, I have just about done it all, she writes.
All along, Alicia held on to the dream of having a loving husband and family, a decent house, and financial security. She wondered why God refused to give her the desires of her heart, never realizing that the way she was living all but guaranteed the loss of her dreams.
And then, God’s light began to shine in her life. True to His Word, He reached down into the depths and offered Alicia a wealth of gifts she could no longer refuse, including the truth that would set her free and the power to overcome the sin that had engulfed her-and the unconditional love she sought from her earthly father, the love that only her heavenly Father could provide.
Today, a transformed Alicia Barber sees herself as God’s minister to single mothers and the children of a fatherless generation: I am here to share the challenges I had to go through…standing in the gap to speak up for those who have been lied to, deceived, and tormented by the enemy.

However, there have been those men and women sprinkled throughout the Church’s history whose lives have been more radiant and their works more abundant than the average Christian-these were saints who lived saintly lives. As our fallen culture forms their heroes from a world that will soon pass away, let the people of God hold before themselves those worthies who lived in this world but were not of this world. May we be possessed and controlled by the same Spirit who abode in and shaped these former Evangelical Saints. The author of this volume, Ernest Gordon (1867-1956), selected a variety of individuals who were renowned for their Christian character. Whatever their sectarian distinctions, each possessed a vibrant love and loyalty to the Lord Jesus Christ. Each one was a child of the truth, as it is found in Jesus Christ. Each one cultivated a warm affection for their brothers and sisters in Christ. Each one sought-like their Lord when on earth-to seek and to save the lost. Each one believed in the soon return of the Lord Jesus. They believed what they did, and lived the way they did, because each had undergone a genuine personal conversion. These forty-seven biographical sketches should stimulate each reader to know Christ more clearly, to love Him more dearly, and to follow Him more nearly.

But his personal story of life both on and off the field is what makes Wagner’s story a compelling read.

Wagner’s story is about a player who was told he was never good enough and would never make it, yet he beat all odds-both on and off the field, retiring at the top of his game to spend more time with his family.
