But the more she works with Paul (who treats her like a naive do-gooder) and the teens (who are addicts, criminals, and world-class manipulators), the more uncertain she becomes about everything. Just when she feels like giving up, Stephanie realizes God is still working on all of them and she senses hope rising once again.

13 Weeks To Peace
$27.99Add to cartSo many of us suffer from chronic guilt feelings; we assume that these feelings reflect God’s opinion of us.
But then along comes the gospel – exploding the lie with its mind-shattering declaration that not only does He love us, He is the One who “forgives all [our] iniquities, who heals all [our] diseases” (Psalm 103:3)
While we tend to conform to our own self-concept, becoming what we think we are, Jesus does something for us that no man can do, He give us a new identity. “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have become new (2Corinthians 5:17).In 13 Weeks to Peace, Jennifer Jill Schwirzer reveals a Divine Healer who longs to bring peace to hurting hearts and minds, and skillfully demonstrates how He goes about the work of transforming us, molding us, and re-creating us into His own image.
This book features study questions suitable for small groups or answering in a journal, as well as tools at the end of the book to help deal with forgiveness, anger, and fear or develop positive relationship skills.

Paul : A Spiritual Journey
$18.87Add to cartChanged in an instant, transformed over a lifetime.
We know the stories of the apostle Paul’s missionary journeys. He traveled far and wide across Asia Minor and Europe, teaching and preaching at every opportunity. He was attacked, arrested, imprisoned, and shipwrecked. But there is more to the story than that. Paul’s whole life was a journey.
With a blinding flash of light and a voice from heaven, Paul was transformed from a persecutor of Christians to an ambassador for Christ. Paul was transformed, but he was not perfected.
He still had a lot of growing up to do.
As he sowed and nurtured the seeds of Christianity all over his world, Paul’s spiritual journey took him along paths we all must walk. He faced doubt and uncertainty. He was confronted with criticism and loss. He learned to face adversity, to take the good with the bad, and to be content in whatever state he found himself. He learned to depend on God.
Transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit – beginning on the road to Damascus and continuing on every other road he traveled – Paul planted the seeds that changed the world.
We are all on a journey. We all have some growing up to do. Through Paul’s story and his words, the Power that transformed him can take hold of our hearts. In his life, we can see who God wants us to be and the work He wants us to finish. -

Understanding Creation : Answers To Questions On Faith And Science
$27.99Add to cart“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse” (Romans 1:20, NIV).
For centuries, Western culture operated within the context of a Christian worldview. For this reason, the answer to any question was anchored in the belief that God exists and is the Creator and Sustainer of all, and that the Bible is a trustworthy revelation of God. Many of the founders of modern science, including Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Pascal, Boyle, Newton, and Halley, were believers of those central concepts.
During the past 200 years, our culture, particularly the scientific community, has been moving away from the Christian worldview, and assuming a naturalistic stance that discounts any supernatural intervention in the origin, functioning, and maintenance of our world. As a result, two opposing philosophical views contend for allegiance today.
Understanding Creation articulates twenty questions about faith and science that Christians often encounter. The co-editors have assembled an international group of experienced scientists, researchers, and thinkers who provide thoughtful answers to these questions. They all share several convictions: the biblical record is an essential component of Christian doctrine; Christian faith and empirical science can work fruitfully together; and our comprehension of truth is progressive
