hardcoverA Non-Anxious Life
Experiencing the Peace of God's Presence
by Alan Fadling
Do you, like so many of us, see anxiety as an incentive to perform? Or a proof of how much you care? Or is anxiety simply an unwelcome shadow over your days, bringing with it clenched teeth and an upset stomach?

paperbackDiscipleship of the Mind
by James W. Sire

paperbackNo Argument for God
Going Beyond Reason in Conversations About Faith
by John Wilkinson
Religion is irrational! New atheists trumpet the claim loudly, so much so that it's become a sort of conventional wisdom.

But doubt is not a sign of spiritual weakness--rather ...

Illustrated by Martin ErspamerWe know about the Bible. We may know some Bible stories, or maybe we've even read large portions for ourselves. But what it's really all about? How do all the different pieces fit together?
Without a sense of the big story the Bible is telling, we'll miss out on the good news God has for us. In The 30-Minute Bible, experienced Bible teachers Craig Bartholomew ...
