Guides Greatest Sabbath Stories
$26.09Add to cart“I will give you people exactly five minutes to decide whether or not you will work on Saturday.”
Within five seconds came their determined but respectful reply. “We cannot and will not work on the Sabbath, though the heavens fall!”
“What?” screamed the astonished Nazi, almost dropping his eyeglasses. “Well, then,” he stammered, “I hope your God can hear through the walls of a concentration camp!”
Here is a collection of amazing but true stories about God’s faithfulness to those who honor His holy day. A father has no money to send his children to church school until his boss offers him a raise-if he will work on Sabbath just this once. A son is offered a stack of money if he will forget his Adventist scruples. A man with a gun aimed at his heart has to decide whether to honor his conscience.
Seventh-day Adventist athletes face Sabbath tournaments, musicians face Sabbath recitals, and students face Sabbath exams. Fishermen leave huge fish waiting in their nets at Friday sundown. Even inanimate objects honor the Sabbath-like the hammer that wouldn’t work on that day, the thick harness torn in two by an invisible hand, and one super capacity water jug.
Sometimes angels get into the act. One explains the seventh day in a dream. Helpful guides appear and disappear. A mysterious porter brings baked potatoes to a young man bleeding from the lash of his chief who demands he carry a load on the Sabbath. In each case God provides for His own.
Taken from 50 years of Guide, a magazine for Christian youth, these stories prove God’s promise: “Those who honor me I will honor” (1 Samuel 2:30, NIV).

Thoughtful Hour 2
$16.49Add 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.

Guides Greatest Friendship Stories
$24.79Add to cartPointing to a narrow path angling down the side of the bayou, I said, “Let’s go.”
I picked up a big stick and used it to beat back the weeds towering on either side of me. Suddenly I jumped back, nearly knocking Lacey down. At my feet squirmed a long, thick, dark snake.
“Cottonmouth!” I shouted. “Run!”
