God Was There
$7.27Add to cartMurder, suicide, drug raids,-through it all-God was there.And so was police chaplain, Martin Weber.
These true stories of victims and criminals expose a side of life that most of us are fortunate to never experience. But the pain of crime and sin is very real and very personal. Go along with Chaplain Weber as he stands with others in their greatest times of need. You will meet:
A murderer who confesses his crime-with the blood still on his hands.
A man dying from Aids-who asked for anointing and wanted to go home to his Adventist family.
A woman whose husband dropped dead-while they were arguing.
A young man traumatized by seeing his family killed-in front of his own eyes.We are all sinners. We need a refuge, a place of grace to which we can escape. Christianity has much to say about the historic Jesus on the streets of long-ago Galilee. Adventists look forward to the Second Coming of Christ and the new heavens and the New Earth. But we need Jesus now!
The Bible offers a much-overlooked solution. Between the first-century Savior and our everlasting Lord, Jesus is an always present help in times of trouble. “Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.” (Hebrews 4:14).
Think you know someone beyond hope? Think again. In the midst of our pain, God is always there.

Noah : The Chosen One
$8.37Add to cart“As were the days of Noah, so shall be the coming of the Son of man.” “Can someone help me out over here?” Noah shouted, gesturing to the crowd in the market place. “These boys are trying to rob me!” With a sickening feeling in the pit of his stomach he began to realize that no one was going to come to his aid. No one cared. . . . This is ridiculous, Noah thought. Two striplings want to rob me in the street, and no one has the decency to come to my aid. What’s this world coming to? . . . Bradley Booth has crafted a remarkable story of Noah and the antediluvian world. The parallels between their excesses and violence and those of our own time are startling. Every reader of this book will be struck by the way we of the twenty-first century also rationalize our own behavior, and how often we find it more convenient to “go with the crowd.”

Escape From Egypt
$19.59Add to cartThe guards were shouting excitedly and suddenly the whole camp was in an uproar. It was like the world was coming to an end, and everybody knew it!
Children began running around in circles screaming. Men and boys rushed here and there with their ox goads and cutlasses, bumping into one another, knocking each other over in the sand. Oxen, goats, and donkeys reacted to the alarm and began to rush in every direction.
Meshach looked on in fear, not knowing what to expect next, but he needn’t have worried. Somewhere in the confusion and noise of the moment a voice of strength called out to the people. It was the voice of Moses.
“He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High can abide safely in the shadow of the Great I Am!” Moses’ voice boomed out. “Don’t worry, my people! Jehovah is our refuge and fortress. In Him we must trust!”
Do you trust God even in bad times? Let this story of God’s power and victory help you to always put your trust in Him.

Finding The Father
$20.29Add to cartOne Lie Breeds Another
That first lie Satan told in Eden–the one that said God was actually a selfish liar–has spawned a multitude of untruths about who God is and what His feelings toward us really are. The human perception of God has been askew ever since, and we’ve struggled to relate to this God we don’t really (want to) know.
Naturally, since our view of God is distorted, our attitudes and behavior are rebellious–perceptions change our thoughts, thoughts influence our feelings, and feelings determine attitudes and behavior. Herb Montgomery goes straight to the root of the problem and sweeps aside the misperceptions of God and His character that cause us to spurn the only one who truly loves us.
Some of Christianity’s long-held, though biblically unfounded, views are confronted–God’s true attitude toward pain and suffering, where guilt comes from, and what His forgiveness accomplishes. And the question that plagues every human heart is irrevocably resolved: If God really loves us, why does He allow horrible things to happen?

Exploring The Letters Of John And Jude
$27.99Add to cartThe letters of John and Jude are a wake-up call. False teachers had infiltrated the church and introduced secular reasoning in place of apostolic teachings. John and Jude wrote to their congregations not only to warn the faithful against the impostors, but to emphasize true spirituality in the face of error and apostasy.
It’s no surprise, then, that these four letters are of the utmost relevance to Christians today. John’s first and second letters deal with issues central to a genuine Christian faith and life, while the third provides a snapshot of the dynamics of at least one congregation in the A.D. 90s. Jude confronts many of the same issues in his letter, including the immorality that results from a denial of Christ.
This user-friendly devotional commentary divides the entire text of these four letters into bite-sized passages using a new translation by the author. Each passage is followed by the exegetical meaning as well as the practical application for the lives of twenty-first-century believers. Small study groups and individuals alike will benefit from this format and better understand God’s timely and very personal message.

Brushed Back : The Trevor Bullock Story
$21.59Add to cartCocky and good-looking, Trevor Bullock was the man. He was a star pitcher, the life of the party, and the girls loved him. Drugs and alcohol were easy to come by in high school, even though his dad was the narcotics captain at the local police department. But that didn’t faze Trevor-smooth talking was yet another one of his golden talents. Baseball was his life, and he figured he deserved all the perks that came with it.
But God had something else in mind for His wayward child-it just took a while to get his attention.
Over the next few years Trevor went to college, played ball, went to church sometimes, partied, was baptized, got thrown in jail, signed with the Philadelphia Phillies organization, and met a girl. The girl. And for some reason, Trevor’s relationship with Carissa mirrored his off-and-on relationship with God.
But God was still calling the game-He just had to convince Trevor to quit shaking Him off.
