    by Beth A. Booram

    Do you have a dream? Do you have a creative idea stirring within you to do something different or start something new? If so, you're not alone. Many people have God-given dreams but don?t know how to discern what they are and develop them into something real. Most of these dreamers aren't business people or experienced entrepreneurs. They're just sincere Christ-followers who need a spiritual and ...

  • The Message of Malachi, By Peter Adam
    paperback

    The Message of Malachi

    The Bible Speaks Today Series

    by Peter Adam

    The book of Malachi fittingly sits in Christian Bibles as the last book of the Old Testament, which it assumes, summarizes, and applies. Yet it also looks forward to the New Testament with its promises of the coming reign of God.

    A striking feature of the book is the people of God's inconsistent faithfulness. God's people neither serve God wholeheartedly nor turn entirely ...

  • We Believe in One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, Edited by Angelo Di Berardino

    We Believe in One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church

    Ancient Christian Doctrine Series

    Edited by Angelo Di Berardino

    When was the church founded? Jesus spoke of the kingdom of God and not of a religious organization subsequently called church. We don't find in the Gospels expressions which make reference to the foundation of a new religious community, a new and distinct community of followers of Jesus. But after the resurrection of Jesus, his followers, as a result of his express command, gather ...

    paperback

    Inexpressible

    Hesed and the Mystery of God's Lovingkindness

    by Michael Card

    God's identity is beyond what we could ever fully express in human words. But Scripture uses one particular word to describe the distinctiveness of God's character: the Hebrew word hesed. Hesed is a concept so rich in meaning that it doesn't translate well into any single English word or phrase. Michael Card unpacks the many dimensions of hesed, often expressed as lovingkindness, ...

  • Leading Small Groups in the Way of Jesus, By M. Scott Boren

    Leading Small Groups in the Way of Jesus

    by M. Scott Boren

    Is there any arena in the contemporary church more perplexing than small groups? Leaders and participants alike fill them with promises of unparalleled spiritual intimacy and reliable relationship. Experts put forward model after model, paradigm after paradigm, and frustrated small group leaders and followers meander from one to the next in increasingly vain hope that the next model will deliver ...

    Crazy Enough to Care

    Changing Your World Through Compassion, Justice and Racial Reconciliation

    by Alvin C. Bibbs, Sr.

    Nothing confronts a person's faith quite like injustice, pain, suffering. We see these things in our world, in our neighborhoods, and we don't know what to do with ourselves. We've got to do something, but where to begin? What to do? How to do it? Crazy Enough to Care will take you and your friends on a journey, uncovering the things that make compassion impractical in contemporary society, ...

    Passport to the Bible

    An Explorer's Guide

    Edited by Fred Wagner

Would you like to read and understand the Bible for yourself? The studies in this guide are designed to help you do that. You will look at four major themes in the Bible:

    • what God is like
    • what people are like

  • The Missional Quest: Becoming a Church of the Long Run, By Lance Ford and Brad Brisco
    paperback

    The Missional Quest

    Becoming a Church of the Long Run

    Forge Partnership Books

    by Lance Ford and Brad Brisco
    Foreword by Ed Stetzer

    When Christ calls people, he invites them on a journey—a journey taken together in community. We have reached a point in history, however, when we think of the church as a fixed place where isolated individuals show up, consume a Christian message, drink some coffee, and get on with their lives. The times demand, and the gospel proclaims, that we recover our identity as a church that is a people ...
