Thoughts From The Mount Of Blessing
$4.49Add to cartThe Sermon the Mount has been called ‘The Manifesto of the King’ and ‘The Magna Carta of the Kingdom.’ It is the essence of the teaching of Jesus presented to His disciples.
To those who heard it on the hill overlooking Galilee it had an immediate impact. In some respects it was revolutionary, overturning accepted ideas. It packs a powerful punch today, especially as it is expounded in this classic by Ellen White.

Church That Does Not Fall
$14.29Add to cartHave you ever wondered . . .
Is the church still God’s idea, or has the divine been almost wholly supplanted by the human?
What assurance can I have that the organized Seventh-day Adventist church will not fall or fail?In The Church that Does Not Fall, Lee Roy Holmes gives convincing answers from the Bible and the writings of Ellen White to answer these questions and more. But while addressing tough issues, Holmes reminds us that God is at the head of the church, and that when everything seems to be crumbling around us, He has a plan and has us in His hands.

Ellen White On Preaching
$15.99Add to cartPreach the Word.
The commission resounds through the ages, igniting pulpits and inspiring preachers even still. It is a sacred task that requires reverence-and preparation.
To aid in the art of preaching, professor of preaching Mervyn A. Warren has constructed this landmark book. It includes an extensive collection of Ellen G. White’s practical wisdom on how to develop and present a powerful sermon. Whether you are a lay preacher, pastor, or evangelist, you will be inspired and instructed by these timeless principles of preaching, including how to construct strong content, organization, language, and delivery.
You’ll discover Ellen White’s sensible and stirring words on a number of topics.
On the need to organize sermons:
“Some minds are more like an old curiosity shop than anything else. Many odd bits and ends of truth have been picked up and stored away there; but they know not how to present them in a clear, connected manner” (Evangelism, p. 648).On the most effective sermons:
“In this age of moral darkness it will take something more than dry theory to move souls. Ministers must have a living connection with God. They must preach as though they believed what they said” (Testimonies for the Church, vol. 4, p. 447).On the length of sermons:
“Let the message for this time be presented, not in long, labored discourses, but in short talks, right to the point” (Gospel Workers, pp. 167, 168).The good news of salvation is the best God has to offer humanity. Shouldn’t we offer our best when we present it?

Call To Medical Evangelism And Health Education
$7.29Add to cartIn these last days of earth’s history, those who meet the medical needs of others will have the door opened to meet spiritual needs as well. Christ Himself “went about doing good, healing all who were oppressed by the devil.” His healing was not only physical, but spiritual as well.

When we follow this counsel, we are heeding the advice of Isaiah 58, which outlines our responsibility to help those who are sick and needy. This is the true service that God wants from us, and that is so powerfully called for in this timeless book.

Exploring Romans
$34.49Add to cartRomans is one of the few books in the New Testament that was not composed as a pastoral response to specific, localized problems. Instead this letter was written primarily to challenge and ultimately correct widespread misunderstandings about Christianity held by mid-first-century believers. Some of these beliefs are embraced even now, and the careful study of this letter to believers whom Paul had not yet met is vital to every sincere Christian.
Paul’s central focus in Romans is the means of obtaining salvation. Point by point, he systematically builds his case by articulating who needs salvation and why, the role of the law, God’s response to the sin problem, resolution of the legal issues presented by sin, and the effect each has on the Christian’s life.
This devotional commentary divides the entire text into short passages that are followed by a detailed, user-friendly exegetical explanation and practical application to everyday life. The lives of such men as Martin Luther and John Wesley, whose writings helped shape Western history, were changed by the study of Romans. It will change your life as well.

$26.99Add to cartHe died for them.
They lived for Him.

In this fresh, unified narrative their stories and letters are arranged in chronological order-Luke’s account of the various missionary journeys interspersed with the letters the apostles wrote to the churches.

Enoch’s walk with God. Noah’s ark and the great Flood.Babel’s confusion of languages. It’s all in these pages, beautifully illustrated with specially commissioned art. Abraham: The exciting story of Abraham, the father of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity, is told in fascinating detail.

Jacob: He laid a clever plot to steal the birthright blessing from his brother, Esau, a hunter. Esau was furious! Jacob fled for safety to his uncle Laban. But what goes around comes around, and so the trickster was tricked-he asked for the hand of Rachel, but woke up to find he’d gotten Leah instead. With compelling power the ups and downs in the life of Jacob are dramatized here as never before. Joseph: The amazing story of Joseph has everything: intrigue, suspense, violence, forgiveness, glamour, seduction, strange dreams, and a dramatic twist at the end.
