Par Lee Strobel. 2018
New York Times bestselling author Lee Strobel trains his investigative sights on the hot-button question: is it really credible to…
believe God intervenes supernaturally in people's lives today? This provocative book starts with an unlikely interview in which America's foremost skeptic builds a seemingly persuasive case against the miraculous. But then Strobel travels the country to quiz scholars to see whether they can offer solid answers to atheist objections. Along the way, he encounters astounding accounts of healings and other phenomena that simply cannot be explained away by naturalistic causes. The book features the results of exclusive new scientific polling that shows miracle accounts are much more common than people think. What's more, Strobel delves into the most controversial question of all: what about miracles that don't happen? If God can intervene in the world, why doesn't he do it more often to relieve suffering? Many American Christians are embarrassed by the supernatural, not wanting to look odd or extreme to their neighbors. Yet, The Case for Miracles shows not only that the miraculous is possible, but that God still does intervene in our world in awe-inspiring ways. Here's a unique book that examines all sides of this issue and comes away with a passionate defense for God's divine action in lives today. Also available: The Case for Miracles Spanish edition, kids' edition, and student editionPar Henri J. Nouwen. 1996
A classic, personal work of self-examination from the bestselling author of The Return of the Prodigal Son, hailed as &“one…
of the world&’s greatest spiritual writers&” by Christianity Today This is Henri Nouwen&’s secret journal. It was written during the most difficult period of his life, when he suddenly lost his self-esteem, his energy to live and work, his sense of being loved—even his hope in God. Although he experienced excruciating anguish and despair, he was still able to keep a journal in which he wrote a daily spiritual imperative to himself that emerged from his conversations with friends and supporters. For more than eight years, Nouwen felt that his journal was too raw and private to share with others. Instead, he published The Return of the Prodigal Son to express some of the insights gained during his mental and spiritual crisis. But then friends asked him, &“Why keep your anguish hidden from the many people who have been nurtured by your writing? Wouldn&’t it be a consolation to know about the fierce inner battle that lies underneath your spiritual insights?&” For the countless men and women who live through the pain of broken relationships or suffer from the loss of a loved one, this book about the inner voice of love offers new courage, new hope, and even new life.Par Kent Christmas. 2018
Rejected. Broke. Unsuccessful. These are not words one associate with a pastor whose church has more than 3,000 members and…
whose services and podcast are viewed online by more than 200,000 people in nearly 100 nations each week. But Pastor Kent Christmas has lived these words. Jobless, near penniless, and nearly killed, on more than one occasion . . . yet ever laboring to become all that God would have him to be. This was Kent&’s story. But God . . . God uses broken people with broken hearts and lives to bring healing and salvation to a broken world. In Turning Sorrow Into Joy, you will learn how God took Kent from floundering small-town preacher to world-renowned pastor, from brokenness to healing, from adversity to blessing, and from despair to victory. For Kent, God truly did restore the years that the locust had eaten (Joel 2:25). Are you struggling to fulfill what you believe to be God&’s purpose for your life but can&’t seem to gain any traction? Is your story one of heartache, betrayal, rejection, and struggle, and you fear that your past will be your future? Kent Christmas has been there, yet he triumphed against all odds. And so can you. Kent&’s story didn&’t end where it began. Read it and be encouraged. God has a plan for you. He will fulfill it in His time.Par Glennyce S. Eckersley. 1996
Though angels have been part of our culture and our history for centuries, they have been forgotten in recent times,…
diminished to the level of christmas trinkets and the playthings of children. Until recently few would admit encountering angelic beings. Yet this extraordinary book shows angels are returning - and being acknowledged - once again. Here are true stories of countless ordinary people being rescued by angels, being comforted and healed by them, feeling their presence in the face of death and often appearing to little children. These tales are drawn from such countries as Britain, Australia, Ireland and the United States showing angels can be found all around the globe, helping people and often changing their lives completely. Full of warm and uplifting stories, An Angel At My Shoulder suggests it is more than time to reconsider our view of angels, to let them back into our hectic mechanized world and to realise we are never alone. . .Par Jim Johnson. 2024
Faith and facts are reconciled in this revelatory examination of biblical and secular truths that follows the path to God…
through science, not around it. Always a man of science, Jim Johnson accepted Christ into his life shortly after his fiftieth birthday. This acceptance of God&’s unseeable power did not shake his belief in science—it strengthened it. Through years of research on the world&’s evolution, Johnson found that in studying every new hypothesis and theory, he believes even more in God&’s universal role.Timeless Vision: Understanding God&’s Creation through the Lens of Science bridges the gap between faith and science. Johnson examines the natural progression of Earth&’s creation alongside the seven biblical days, explains the conundrum of time, and expands upon the ever-evolving relationship humanity has with science and religion. Through analyzing scripture with detailed data and using science to bolster Christian beliefs, Johnson reveals just how rare and privileged Earth and human life truly are. It is through studying science and faith together, not apart, that we can see how God&’s plan was developed and why He did it. One is not complete without the other. Let Johnson lead you down the path less traveled—the one of science and faith—and show how God gave humanity these ways to discover Him more fully and completely.Par T. D. Jakes. 2009

cancer memoir, A Whole New Life. The correspondent, a young medical student diagnosed with cancer himself and facing his own mortality, asked these difficultQuestions.
