How to clear the junk from your life and let your spirit breathe In Celebration of Simplicity

The Joy of Living Lightly Penelope Wilcock

Our spiritual growth has been stifled by our long obsession with consumption and possessions. This practical yet visionary book offers a model for a truly healthy life based on gospel simplicity. Ditch the stuff that gets in the way, and your heart is free to respond to God. “What is in these pages works,” Penelope says. “It’s the medicine for today, it transforms life. It’s the message of the Bible that shouts off every page but is silenced before it ever gets to church.”   Christian simplicity affects our management of time, money, possessions, speech; what we do, eat, and hear; our relationships, resources, homes, transportation; the way we dress. It requires discipline. “But as we journey, a wonderful sense of freedom permeates our lives; the light heart that is necessary to walk gracefully in Christ’s way.”

Features and Benefits • A positive and thought-provoking challenge to a new life lived from a biblical perspective • A meaningful gift

40 days of readings for those who are too battered to face reading the Bible unaided Stepping Stones to Freedom A 40-Day Devotional Rachel Hickson

It takes three weeks to start a new habit and six weeks to establish it. Here are six weeks’ worth of daily readings for those who want to hear from God but find themselves so bruised and weary that any kind of regular Bible reading or sustained time of prayer is beyond them.   Each week has a separate focus based on the stepping stones of discovery: know you are redeemed and precious; rediscover the leader; reclaim hope; reform your thinking; reawaken your dreams; revive your life. The point of the book is to engender a process of change, one step at a time. “Rachel has provided a great tool that will help you in developing a habit and lifestyle of prayer and of reading the Word.” —Frank Damazio, Senior Pastor, City Bible Church, Portland, Oregon

What positive and negative influences can women have in a local fellowship? Influential Women

From the New Testament to Today—How Women Can Build Up or Undermine Their Local Church

Wendy Virgo; foreword by Greg Haslam, Westminster Chapel, London Wendy offers studies of key women in the New Testament as a starting point for a series of reflections on women’s roles in the church today. Some of these women were saints, full of good works; some were frankly poisonous and did considerable harm. From her long experience within Newfrontiers, Wendy offers a good deal of shrewd advice and writes candidly about her own struggles to fit into church structures.   “Women can be powerful in a church and can be influential in changing it from a sick community to a healthy one. They can be a tremendous asset or a huge liability. They can influence the whole ambience of a church . . . The pages of the New Testament contain a surprising number of references to women to whom we can relate as we seek to build good healthy churches in the twenty-first century.”

Features and Benefits • Immensely timely for contemporary considerations of the varied and necessary ministries of women in Christian communities worldwide • Solidly biblical and New Testament–based

How to De-Stress Without Doing Less Kate Middleton

Stress is a growing problem in modern life, with three out of five visits to the doctor attributed to stress-related problems. But what is it? Who does it affect? And what can be done about it?   This lucid and helpful book guides us through the symptoms and causes of stress, emphasizing that being stressed is not a sign of “being weak” but an unavoidable challenge of twenty-first century life—in fact, often the most motivated and successful people experience the highest levels of stress.

Because handling stress well will help you feel better and achieve more, even if it won’t make you super(wo)man. Whether you are experiencing acute stress now or sometimes feel on the brink of burnout, Dr. Middleton will equip you to cope better with this Achilles heel and to be at your best.

Original research from an experienced writer, public speaker, and expert on relationships in the business world The Relational Manager Transform Your Workplace and Your Life Michael Schluter and David John Lee

Relationships are at the heart of all that we do and achieve, indeed our very identity. When they are nourished, there is room for human flourishing. When they are neglected, health, productivity, efficiency, and individual happiness suffer. This is the core of all Schluter’s research. The Keep Sunday Special Campaign, Credit Action, and Concordis are applications of this Relational Theory.   The Relational Manager looks at relationships in the context of business, community, and everyday life, including communications, management, money, and security. Supported by a wealth of statistics, research, and background information, Schluter demonstrates clearly and persuasively that relational poverty affects all areas of society, and is associated with poor health, ineffective management, and low output at work.

J. S. Bach

Calvin Stapert The History Makers is a new, color-illustrated series that focuses on the lives and legacies of religiously significant historical figures who have influenced the world in significant and lasting ways, including politics, social action, and the arts and sciences.   Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750) was best known during his lifetime as an organist rather than a composer. A revival of interest in performing his music began in the nineteenth century, however, and he is now widely considered to be one of the greatest composers in the Western tradition. Stapert traces Bach’s life, his travels, his many musical achievements, and the key role that Bach’s Christian beliefs played in his composing and his life.

The History Makers is a new, color-illustrated series that focuses on the lives and legacies of religiously significant historical figures who have influenced the world in significant and lasting ways, including politics, social action, and the arts and sciences.   Rembrandt (1606–1669) is generally considered one of the greatest painters and print makers in European art history. His greatest creative triumphs are generally agreed to have been in portraits—of himself and others—and in portraying scenes from the Bible. Watts examines how Rembrandt’s faith impacted his work, and traces the life of this fascinating character and the key transitions in his art style.

Lavishly illustrated exploration of the phenomenon of pilgrimage Pilgrimage

A Spiritual and Cultural Journey Ian Bradley

This book explores the phenomenon of Christian pilgrimage, pointing to its origins in the exodus and subsequent wilderness experience of the Jews, the medieval heyday when millions of pilgrims spent months traveling across Europe, and the modern revival that has blurred the lines between pilgrimage and tourism and made places such as Iona, Taize, and Santiago di Compostella the mecca for contemporary seekers and travelers.   Lavishly illustrated, the book begins with the history and then covers pilgrimages in Ireland, Scotland, England, Wales, Norway, France, Spain, Italy, Bosnia-Herzogovina, and Poland. Providing a mixture of history and fact with vivid personal experiences and pilgrims’ own accounts and prayers, Ian Bradley brings to life one of the most vibrant expressions of Christian spirituality.

Features and Benefits • A magnificent book on a topic of growing interest to Christians of all persuasions • Provides an armchair pilgrimage for those who can’t visit a traditional site • Pilgrimage is a growing interest in the US, as displayed through a recent article in Christianity Today

A revolutionary examination of often-overlooked parts of the Christmas story A Not-So-Silent Night

The Unheard Story of Christmas and Why It Matters Verlyn D. Verbrugge

Christmas is a time for peace on earth, a time for favorite carols, family dinners, and familiar traditions. It’s about a beautiful story of a lovely babe in the manger. Or is it?   A Not-So-Silent Night is a revolutionary book that reveals the darker side of Christmas, a side that exposes pain, humiliation, fear, and danger. Though we usually choose to ignore them, these elements—in their cultural and historical context—reveal the true meaning of Christmas where the shadow of the cross is inseparable from the manger. Author Verlyn Verbrugge maintains that until we see the dark side of Christmas, until we shed tears with Mary and Joseph, until we experience the fear that war is on the horizon, we will never truly understand the awesomeness of what happened in that little town of Bethlehem. Timely and provocative, A Not-So-Silent Night is perfect for pastors looking for a new approach to their traditional Christmas sermons and for anyone who wants to get past holiday commercialization and get back to the reason for the season.

Features and Benefits • Fresh insights on what the message of Christmas really is • Captivating writing gives an aha moment • Offers a new approach to the traditional Christmas sermon

Transformed into Fire

Discovering Your True Identity as God’s Beloved Judith Hougen

There are moments in every Christian’s life when we hit a “spiritual glass ceiling.” In those frustrating moments, we wonder, why do others experience love and intimacy with God but not me? The remedy is not a checklist of actions but a personal, powerful call to come home, to come out of the cold, to forsake the false self—our old identity—driven by pursuit of security, esteem, and power.   Transformed into Fire explores the profound spiritual depths found within the routine of daily life through the discovery of our true selves in Christ. You are invited to journey toward the warm embrace of the Father where being and doing, prayer and action become a fiery response to His intimate love.

Are You Sad, Little Bear?

A Book about Learning to Say Goodbye

Rachel Rivett; illustrated by Tina Macnaughton Grandmother Bear has gone forever, and Little Bear is feeling sad. His mother wisely suggests that perhaps asking his woodland companions what saying goodbye means to them will help him understand his loss. Little Bear’s day of exploring and asking questions brings him comfort and hope. For the swallows, saying goodbye means flying to warmer lands; for the leaves of the trees it is a chance to be free, leaving the tree at her most beautiful; for the moon it is to return to be with the sun; and for the sun it is to rise in another sky and just because Little Bear can’t see him doesn’t mean he isn’t there.   This charmingly illustrated picture book will help young children in times of bereavement, loss, or change, gently exploring the reasons for saying goodbye and giving reassurance that goodbye doesn’t mean the end of things.

Key biblical and practical issues for the church considering elders Why Elders?

A Biblical and Practical Guide for Church Members Benjamin L. Merkle

Most works on elders are written for the pastor or church leader, but this volume speaks directly to the church member. Benjamin L. Merkle grounds this study about church elders in the Word of God as he clearly and succinctly informs laypeople of the scriptural qualifications and responsibilities of elders and deacons. Then he implores laity to vote wisely concerning church leadership. Why Elders? assumes the voice of the curious church member who reads the Bible with an eye focused on the early church’s organizational structure and asks, “Why did they do it the way they did?” and “How can we follow Scripture’s prescription for leadership?”

Features and Benefits • Written at an accessible level for church members • Captures interest in circles where churches do not have elders but are considering it • Encourages church members to dialogue with church leadership

A Trinitarian Missiology for the Twenty-first Century Timothy C. Tennent

Invitation to World Missions combines a strong biblical anchor with practical suggestions. This unique text is arranged in three parts according to the Trinity’s roles, relationships, and activity. Tennent questions whether missions as currently conceptualized is adequate and he challenges the reader by building the book around key theological foundations such as “mission dei” and the “new creation” vision for the global church. This volume will call and enable the reader to understand how missions is biblically and theologically basic to Christianity, and how missions is essential to living out an abundant and impassioned life.

A fresh approach to the theology of preaching that will inspire every pastor Dying to Preach

Embracing the Cross in the Pulpit Steven Smith

Drawing inspiration from the seminal preacher, the apostle Paul, Steven Smith takes a fresh look not just at the how of preaching, but at the whys. In 2 Corinthians 4:12, Paul describes the philosophy of his ministry as “death in us, but life in you.” Building on this scriptural framework, Smith illustrates the theology of preaching through the metaphor of vicarious suffering, dying so that others might live. As he elaborates the intersection of the cross and the pulpit, Smith shows why the preacher must die to self, die for others, and die in Christ so that congregations may live.

Features and Benefits • Explains the “why” of preaching, rather than the “how” • Defends the primacy of expository preaching • Provides a biblical model for effective preaching—that life follows death

Show Me How to Illustrate Evangelistic Sermons A Guide for Pastors and Speakers R. Larry Moyer

Good illustrations powerfully connect ideas to experience. They make otherwise difficult and seemingly unrelated concepts accessible to a wide range of listeners.

Larry Moyer knows that the right illustration is crucial in presenting the good news. And he can show pastors and speakers how to add impact to their evangelistic preaching with proven and time-tested principles. All pastors and speakers who want to challenge listeners with the gospel message can profit from this insightful resource.

Paul N. Benware; Foreword by Charles Ryrie Bible prophecy continues to fascinate, never more than in troubled times of war and natural disasters. But why study Bible prophecy? What does it mean if a person is premillennial or amillennial, believes in the Rapture, or knows who or what the Beast of Revelation is? Benware’s framework for understanding Bible prophecy is based on the four biblical covenants: Abrahamic, Palestinian, Davidic, and New. This book is a reference for seminary and college students, and those curious about the various views of end times prophetic events and the biblical proof behind them.

How to distinguish between healthy relationships and codependency―to become the person God meant you to be Cuando complacer a otros le hace daño

When Pleasing Others Is Hurting You David Hawkins

Christians are called to be servants, caring for the needs of other people. But when these caregivers begin to forfeit their own God-given calling and identity in an unhealthy desire to please others, they move from servanthood to codependency. How can they get back on track?   Readers will resonate with the real-life illustrations of people who no longer know what they think, want, or feel because they have unwittingly allowed voices of other people to drown out the voice of God. Suggestions for redirecting unhealthy relationships will empower readers to rediscover their own value and personal contribution. Applications to the home, to work settings, and to the church will help them become more effective servants of God. “For those who feel their identity has been lost along the road to winning others’ approval, author and licensed clinical psychologist David Hawkins has a map. In his latest book, he suggests how to address co-dependency in individuals, families, and churches. Most importantly, he shows that when we let go of our co-dependency, we are available to let God work in and through our lives.” —Christianity Today Available in English from Harvest House Publishers.

The new birth, regeneration, and what it means to be born again ¡Más vivo que nunca! Finally Alive John Piper

Born again is a term we hear often these days, both within the walls of the church and without. But it seems that the term is so often used in a different way than the doctrine as we find it in Scripture. Piper’s aim in writing this book is “to explain the new birth as clearly as I can from the Bible so that readers can see it for themselves.” And he does so in just the way we’ve come to expect from John Piper—with clear exposition of Scripture and with undeniable passion and integrity.
