Questions concerning various topics such as knowing God's will, assurance of salvation, home life, and even dating relationships result from a lack in comprehending the Person of God the Father. Dan DeHaan puts God the Father back into the Christian perspective of what it means to live this way of life called Christianity in The God You Can Know. Burdened by contemporary Christians' lack of understanding of the nature of Almighty God, he wrote this book to help readers become intimate with God by studying His characters and attributes.
Throughout her speaking ministry, Sarah Maddox has spoken to and taught thousands of young mothers. She has often been asked the question, "What would you do differently in raising your children if you had to do it again?" Five Things I Did Right and Five Things I Did Wrong in Raising our Children gives some answers to that question. She chooses ten areas of child rearing to reflect, with the hindsight of wisdom, on some things she did right and some things she wished she had done differently. Mothers will benefit from the lessons Sarah has learned, some of them the hard way. This book is a testimony that God is faithful when we seek to honor Jesus in our families.
Susan Sutton takes us beyond a sense of obligation and responsibility in the Christian life to give us a “vision of the deep.” If you are dissatisfied with “surface living,” join Susan in this life-altering venture to lose yourself in the fathomless depths of Jesus Christ.
Do atheists hate God? Many Christians seem to think so. For the last three centuries Christians have widely assumed that atheism is always a result of a rebellious, sinful rejection of God. According to this view, at some level atheists really do know there is a God, but they sinfully suppress this knowledge because they want to live independently of God. But what if that is not correct? What if some folks are atheists not because they're sinful and foolish but because they've thought hard, they've looked carefully, and they have simply not found God? What if the common Christian assumptions about atheism are little more than an indefensible prejudice? What if the atheist really is our neighbor?
The nine-week study for those who lead worship...and want to worship more deeply. Leading worship takes more than nailing a mean guitar riff. Worship leaders start with knowing about God...come to know God...then feel a deep desire to bring people to God--through worship.

Participants will: experience the meaning of true worship, encounter the best motivation for leading worship, explore various methods of worship leading, and embrace the qualities most needed in worship leaders.

And each uplifting team devotion takes just 15-20 minutes--just right for grounding rehearsals on a foundation of true, biblical worship.

The role of the Holy Spirit in a Christian's life is often misunderstood. Some believers focus solely on spiritual gifts, some emphasize the practical over the spiritual, and others avoid the subject altogether. Yet in spite of the apparent confusion, the truth is surprisingly simple: God's Spirit is a vital part of our relationship with Him. The Silent Shepherd offers a balanced, scripturally sound look at the personality, works, and deity of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from over 40 years in ministry, pastor and author John MacArthur, Jr. clears away misconceptions, offers fresh insights, and shares how God's Spirit can guide, lead, and empower every believer. This revised and updated edition includes a guide for both personal and group study and features discovery questions, suggestions for prayer, and activities, all designed to connect life-changing truths with everyday living.

Things have changed. The Truth has not. The 1950's are gone forever. The days of the Sunday school attendance award and the much-loved Sunday school picnic have faded into oblivion. Yet some youth ministries still operate as if today's kids are living in a vacuum, unaffected by the changing morals of today's society. How can we reach these kids with the truth of the gospel? More than fifty of America's youth experts give advice and encouragement to those who long to see this generation know the love of Christ. They help readers think through their philosophies of youth ministry, break down barriers that impede progress, and maximize their own gifts and the gifts of those who work with them. They answer tough questions such as: How can leaders build a relational youth ministry? How can we find and support volunteers? What are the issues women face in youth ministry? How do we minister in ethnic communities? How should we respond to popular culture? How can we help hurting adolescents? You can have a vibrant youth ministry even in these uncertain times. You can reach this generation for Christ.
