Apocalypse : The End Times In Biblical Prophecies
$20.99Add to cartThe term ‘Apocalypse’ is commonly associated with utter destruction, but in the Scriptures it refers to the ‘revelation’ given to us by Jesus Christ in the last book of the Bible: a book that sets out the history of mankind through a series of dramatic symbols we call prophecies. These prophecies are predictions that have been fulfilled with uncanny precision, giving us the assurance that whoever made them knew what he was doing. This is a book about those prophecies, both to help you understand them for yourself, and to prepare for the dramatic events that lie just ahead.
It covers the following issues and much, much more:
The prophecies about the Vatican and the USA
The truth about the world’s greatest secret alliance
A deeper understanding of conspiracy theories
Revelations about who the antichrist really is
The shocking facts behind the Marian and UFO apparitions
Why doesn’t God end all the evil and misery around us?
Who changed His commandments and why?
How close is the end of the world?
How will the world end? -
Jesus Of Nazareth Volumes 1 And 2
$20.99Add to cartThe skillful penmanship of Bill Johnsson, former editor of the Adventist Review, has produced a perceptive and penetrating portrait of Jesus of Nazareth–His Life, Message, and Passion. Jesus of Nazareth is informative and factual, but above all it is a spiritual journey with Jesus the Man.
“Of all the names given children since the dawn of time, one stands alone, solitary, immoveable. Although many men and women now take that name in oath or jest, one day every knee in heaven and earth will bow before Him who bears it and declare that He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords. That name is the sweetest sound to come from infant lips; it sustains us through life; it will be our refuge when we embark on our final journey.
“Jesus. All our hopes, for this world and the next, center in Him. Our best joys, our highest aspirations, our cleanest motivations, spring from Him. Every other name will pass away; His, never. He is incomparable.”

Glimpses Into The Life Of Ellen White
$18.19Add to cart“Brothers and sisters, I commend unto you this book.”
Those words, spoken in 1909, were part of the closing remarks given by Ellen White at the last General Conference session she attended. Sixty five years earlier she’d accepted the call to be the Lord’s messenger. She was seventeen years old. She made it her lifelong ministry to uplift Scripture and to point people to Jesus.
Glimpses Into the Life of Ellen White is filled with stories that provide a fascinating look behind-the-scenes at the life and times of Ellen White. Some of the stories will make you smile; others will move you to tears; but all of them show that Ellen White was a very real person who chose to dedicate her life in service to the One she called, “My Father.”
We sometimes forget that our pioneers were all real people-God started our church using real people. Come to think about it, real people are all He still has to finish the work that needs to be complete before Jesus returns.
James R. Nix is a consummate storyteller who is at his finest when sharing stories of early Adventist believers and Mrs. White in particular. Glimpses Into the Life of Ellen White is filled with fascinating accounts that give a behind-the-scenes look at the life of Ellen White and provide a glimpse of the unseen world.

Gift Of Prophecy In Scripture And History
$40.49Add to cartHuman history is dotted with the exploits of men and women, kings and queens, rogues and despots. Tomes have been written chronicling the rise and fall of empires, but who is able to trace the movements of God between the pages of history? The answer? God Himself. The Bible is a reliable record of God’s unceasing effort to reconcile fallen humanity to Himself through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
Christianity is based on the assumption that God exists and reveals Himself through human prophets, His special spokespersons to fallen humanity. The Gift of Prophecy in Scripture and History provides an exhaustive approach to this subject from a Seventh-day Adventist perspective. After surveying the Bible teachings about prophetic phenomena, this landmark work provides a helpful overview of how these phenomena have been understood within the Christian tradition, culminating with the prophetic ministry of Ellen G. White (1827-1915). This book breaks new ground and should remain a standard text on the subject for many years to come.

SDA International Bible Commentary Genesis
$48.99Add to cartThe book of Genesis has been called “the most important book ever written.” As the first book of the Bible, it not only contains or anticipates all the biblical truths, it is also the book that, more than any other biblical book, has impacted the whole of Scripture, and theology at large. Without the book of Genesis, the Bible would be incomprehensible.
According to author Jacques Doukhan, DHL, ThD, “The book of Genesis is…the ideal place to start our study, not only because it will help us understand our origins and destination, but also because it teaches us how to engage with and reach out to others. In the process we will be surprised by a God of love and mercy, whose first revelation is reported in the book of Genesis.”
This book is our first introduction to the upcoming Seventh-day Adventist International Bible Commentary. This volume, like the “first fruits” offering of Scripture, gives us a taste of what is to come as well as a promise that it is coming soon.

It’s an age-old question-but seldom has the need for an accurate answer been more keenly felt than today.

Boot Camp For The Last Days
$19.59Add to cartWhen you hear the words “boot camp” you probably think of discipline, rigorous training, and hard work-and you’d be right. Boot camp is getting serious about anything you take seriously. There’s no boot camp for couch surfing. And there’s no boot camp for pew warming, either!
We are being made for holiness, and that means we have a transformation to undergo, from “civilian” church goers into fully-devoted disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ-disciples who are ready for His coming.
In Boot Camp for the Last Days, Randy Maxwell passionately exhorts the church to trust NOW; believe NOW; and act NOW in preparation for Jesus’ return. Using the powerful analogy of boot camp training, he skillfully presents familiar truths in fresh and provocative ways that will stir hearts and minds. Boot Camp for the Last Days is a game changer. Are you ready to take the challenge?

Never Lose Hope
$26.59Add to cart“When those enormous doors slammed behind me, I got the impression of having entered a hostile and alien world; it struck me that I was being dragged down into the very bowels of hell.” This is how the story begins of a young pastor, separated from his pregnant wife, who is suddenly thrust behind bars because of his religious convictions. There he became acquainted with a dimension of life previously unknown to him. A jail can be a dark swamp where freedom, hope, and even human dignity are compromised, but it can also be a place where God’s light shines even more brightly in contrast with the darkness. There, the faith he had cultivated as a child led him to see in those cells the birth of an underground church.

Guardians Of The Mercy Seat
$20.29Add to cart“The ark of God has been captured,” he choked on the words.
“It’s now in the hands of the Philistines.”
Laadan dropped to his knees in the dirt of the city gate, his mind whirling like a wheel. All of this news was overwhelming! The battle with the Philistines had been lost. Hophni and Phineas had been killed as prophesied, and Laadan’s brother, Uzzi, might even be dead. Eli was dead now, too, and even worse the ark of God was gone. Could there be any news worse than this in the world? Without the ark there was no hope for anyone in Israel anymore. It appeared Jehovah had indeed departed from Israel.
What would happen now? Would Laadan and his family become Philistine slaves? And what about his friends Iddo, Carmi and Leah? Would he ever see them again? Would the Philistines destroy God’s tabernacle too?
Guardians of the Mercy Seat chronicles the adventures of Laadan and his friends as they struggle to know God’s will for Israel-and their own lives-in the tumultuous days leading up to the capture of the ark of the covenant, and the troubled times following its seizure. Would they have the courage to stand for what they believe? No matter what? Would they ever be able to return to Shiloh to worship at the tabernacle? Or had God truly abandoned Israel?

Born Yesterday
$27.99Add to cartThough born in 1965, Rachel’s story could easily have been set in the 1800s. Wearing long dresses and broad brimmed bonnets and living without modern conveniences including electricity, telephone, radio, television, or indoor plumbing, she and her two older brothers were shaped by the extreme religious views of her iron-willed, Vietnam-veteran father and malleable, practical-minded mother. The family separated from society and lived under often harsh conditions in an old, abandoned house atop a remote range of hills in Tennessee, awaiting the end of the world. Then at 16, Rachel was forced to face the world in which she was not raised to live. She struggled to adjust to an unsheltered life without casting aside the good along with the bad. Eventually she found her way to a full, balanced, and vibrant life. Rachel shares an amazing story that ultimately testifies of God’s faithful and restorative loving care.

Refresh : Jesus The Essence Of Our Faith
$18.19Add to cartThe Seventh-day Adventist Church was officially organized in 1863, and it developed a passion for worldwide mission that was grounded in a strong sense of prophetic identity. While Adventism shared many fundamental beliefs with other denominations, its proclamation focused on its distinctive biblical teachings, which it came to describe as “pillar” doctrines. Assuming that people were already familiar with the person of Jesus and what He essentially stood for, we neglected to position our Lord and Savior at the center of all our “pillar” doctrines.
When the truth is reduced to a series of intellectual facts and behavioral requirements-something is missing. Truth isn’t just a bunch of abstract factual information to memorize, quote, and argue about. Truth is a Person, and His name is Jesus.
This book is a deliberate attempt to rediscover the beauty of our “pillars” and a number of our core beliefs as we give Jesus His rightful place at the center of it all.

40 Days Book 6
$20.99Add to cartCelebrating the Lord’s Supper is perhaps our greatest opportunity to behold the love of God and to be changed into the loving, loveable Christians God has called us to become.
There is no greater revelation of love in the universe than the sacrifice of Christ, which is represented in the Lord’s Supper. Participating corporately in the Lord’s Supper gives us the opportunity to remember Christ’s sacrifice with fellow believers; it is a time of special blessing for the participants.
There is a clear principle in human nature: we become like what we behold. Paul understood this when he wrote, “And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His image” (2 Corinthians 3:18, NIV). We would do well to reflect on the meaning of the Lord’s Supper for it is a memorial to the most significant act of God in the history of humankind. It has elements that point to God’s past loving actions on our behalf, to save us. It has important symbols which teach us how we are to maintain our saving relationship with God. And it points to the hope of our glorious future with Jesus in His kingdom.
Prayer is the most powerful force on earth. Spending forty days contemplating the Lord’s Supper and its symbolism, praying for a deeper understanding of Christ’s sacrifice and for others to come into a saving relationship with Him, will change your life.

Thoughtful Hour 2
$14.49Add to cartImagine standing on the shore of the lake that morning, waiting and watching for Jesus. Following Him up the hillside, would you sit close by and watch-and listen? Would you be hoping to see someone healed? Would you be wishing that Jesus would feed everyone with fish or bread? Or hoping to be in His army when He led the battle against the Romans?
“Putting ourselves on the scene that day will help us hear the words of Jesus more clearly and understand what they should mean in our lives today. But to do this, we have to take time each day-perhaps a thoughtful hour-reading and studying His words.” The teachings in the Beatitudes are a pathway to heaven, and we can learn to follow each step.
That’s why this book exists. It is designed to make that thoughtful hour easier, to give a little structure and focus to a study of the life and words of Jesus. Whether you work through the pages as part of a group study or on your own, you will find a fresh look at the Beatitudes and what it means to be a part of the kingdom of heaven.

Look around at the world today. Daily we hear of wars, famine, and natural disasters. What does it all mean? Prophecy is fast fulfilling. Jesus warned there would ‘be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations” (Luke 21:25).
