Challenges To The Remnant
$22.99Add to cartOn July 10, 2007, Pope Benedict XVI reasserted the absolute authority of the Roman Catholic Church when he approved a document stating that Protestant churches were not ‘true churches’ and therefore did not have the ‘means of salvation.’ Not surprisingly, this created a stir among other Christians including Seventh-day Adventists.

Scary Gross And Weird Stories From The Bible
$19.99Add to cartMost of the youth in your ministry undoubtedly know the familiar, likely Bible accounts. They’ve read them dozens of times. Adam and Eve in Eden, God calling Samuel, Esther’s courage, Saul’s transformation into Paul. Of course: these are amazing highlights from the story of God’s loving relationship with his people. But what about the unfamiliar characters? The unlikely accounts? Do your students know just how offbeat and uncomfortable some parts of the Bible can be? How terrifying? How….dare we say it…weird?
Scary, Gross , & Weird Stories from the Bible explores thirteen bizarre true stories with a can’t-look-away approach. Now, we understand very well that your teenagers probably won’t be shocked by what they find in these passages; they’ve become immune to drama and gore and the grotesque like no generation before. However, they may have never before associated any of that with God’s Word. In fact, their view of the Bible might run more along these lines: sterilized, predictable, safe, dull. So, here’s your opportunity to surprise them, shake the faith-dialogue up a bit, and guide them through some provocative, life-transforming experiences. Think of these thirteen decidedly non-safe stories as the back-alley accounts of the Bible…where God’s light often shines the brightest.
Your students will be surprised and intrigued by the strange things (and people) in these passages-but keep in mind that strangeness isn’t the focus. We’re not helping your students encounter weirdness for weirdness’ sake (or grossness for grossness’ sake-you get the picture). Instead, the goal of these unique encounters with unexpected, unsettling stories is solely to show your teenagers more of who God is…and, well, God is pretty unexpected and unsettling. Not too mention utterly creative. So creative, in fact, that he included a lot of head-scratching, cringe-inducing, and downright disturbing stories in his Word. And each one reveals something about God, and what it means to be in an intimate, redeeming relationship with Jesus Christ.
We’ve designed each of the thirteen studies in this resource to achieve that very purpose: to equip your students to really dig into fresh, startling Scripture passages…so they’ll be astounded by our extraordinary Creator and Savior, and moved to love and serve him with their lives.

Christmas In My Heart Book 16
$20.29Add to cartAs we reach the proverbial age of “sweet sixteen” (young for a woman, but old indeed for a book series), it is appropriate to ask, “Why?” Today, when almost nothing lasts and fame itself supposedly expires in 15 minutes, here we have this simple little series of Christmas story anthologies that perversely refuses to die. Like the timeless Velveteen Rabbit, it becomes but more cherished as the years go by.
If the formula could be bottled, it would be priceless. In essence, it would be an indefinable mixture of stories–new, recent, old, and very old–by authors famous and never-heard-of-before; stories that deeply touch the heartstrings, unlock the tear ducts, make you laugh, yet retain the spiritual dimension of Christmas.
