Everyday Prayers For Joy
$14.99
Jesus promises us that the world will give us trials and tribulations, but our hearts should not be troubled. James urges us to “count it all joy…when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.” In Everyday Prayers for Joy, author Gina L. Smith shares the life-changing lesson she learned to lament in prayer in order to find joy during hard times and changing circumstances. When she found herself in a difficult season and cried out to God, “He opened my eyes to the fact that often I find joy in the blessings He has provided for me more than I find joy in Him, the provider of the blessings. I needed to begin the process of learning what it meant to find joy in Christ alone.” Biblical joy, Gina explains, “is something that exists even when we are suffering or going through a heavy trial because it’s based on the knowledge that God is present, walking with us in our trials, and is producing good fruit in us as we go through them.” In this thirty-day devotional, Gina offers powerful prayers of lament to move past our problems and focus on the source of all love and goodness. “The prayer of lament is the prayer for a suffering soul,” she says. “It is our fight with our soul to remember there is a future….God gave us the prayers of lament to help us process the suffering we face in this life. When we don’t use or understand them, we’re actually missing out on the experience of going to the One who loves us most and can actually heal our hearts and help us to get to the point where our gaze breaks through to eternity. Lamenting is the way we come to God when life is overwhelming.” Each daily entry includes something to think about, space for journaling thoughts, prayer, and praise, and questions for deeper reflection.

Purple Basics : Understanding The Message Of The Gospel In The New Testamen
$14.99The Purple Basics is the “prequel” to The Purple Book-the bestselling Bible study covering biblical foundations. The focus of this study is what has been called “The Gospel Creed”:
The gospel is the good news that God became man in Jesus Christ. He lived the life we should have lived and died the death we should have died . . . in our place. Three days later He rose from the dead, proving He is the Son of God and offering the gift of salvation and forgiveness of sins to anyone who repents and believes in Him.
Millions have attended church and studied Scripture yet lament they lack confidence to share the gospel. This study will give you both the confidence and clarity to communicate this life-changing message with others. Christ’s death and resurrection provide the truth that the gospel is “public truth”-that Jesus actually lived, died, and rose again from the grave.
You can spend a lifetime studying Scripture and barely scratch the surface of God’s knowledge. Yet He has communicated enough for you to know that He exists and how you can enter into a relationship with Him.
Each chapter includes:
*Introductions to the Gospel Creed
*Bible study questions to understand the gospel
*Gospel summaries to master the messageAdd to cartIn stock (additional units can be purchased)
