Jose : God Found Me In LA
$21.59
Not promising. That would sum up the childhood of Jose Rojas.
Born into an abusive home, Jose grew to fear his father’s drunken rampages. “Mama, what’s wrong with me? Why do I make you and Dad fight so much?”
Then things got worse. In school the other kids laughed at his accent, tormented him, called him “skunk” and “dirty Mexican.”
His mom called him “my dreamer.”
Then the Rojas family stumbled onto some followers of an ancient Jewish carpenter. Several of them saw something extraordinary in Jose, this young would-be upholsterer. They mentored him. Believed in him. Encouraged him . . . and prayed with him.
Jose overcame failing grades, fanaticism, and institutional inertia to develop a life-changing youth outreach based on love and prayer. Follow him through a street ministry in Fresno, where he becomes the target of a gang who trash his house, to meetings with the president of the United States. Today his preaching is in worldwide demand, and he serves a as mentor to others.
And his dad has become a loving, spiritual presence in the family.

John Chrysostom : The Preacher In The Emperor’s Court
$11.99Add to cartThere was something about John Chrysostom and the words he spoke that lit up his world.
He was an important leader of the early church, known so much for his preaching and public speaking that he was given the nickname Golden Mouth. He spoke his mind and followed his convictions. He refused to host the lavish social gatherings that his predecessors had laid on. This meant that John Chrysostom really annoyed the wealthy citizens of Constantinople. He spoke out against how many influential Christians cared little for the poor.“It is madness to fill your cupboards with clothing while other human beings stand naked and trembling with the cold so that they can hardly hold themselves upright.”
It didn’t matter if you were rich or poor John spoke the truth – emphatically. Even the empress fell under his criticism which eventually led to his exile and death.
