The Bible teems with ironic situations in which the Lord overturns worldly wisdom, doing the unexpected. Beale explicates ways in which this pattern is exhibited in judgment and salvation finding its greatest expression in Jesus' triumph over death by way of the cross, in which what seems weak and foolish demonstrates God's surpassing power and glory.Sku: 9781433563287

A poetic novel of despair, hope, and the redemptive power of work deepens an award-winning author’s grand Port Williams literary project. After losing his hand in an accident, Andy Catlett confronts an agronomist whose surreal vision can see only industrial farming. This vision is powerfully contrasted with that of modest Amish farmers content to live outside the pressures brought by capitalist postindustrial progress, and by working the land to keep away the three great evils of boredom, vice, and need. As Andy’s perspective filters through his anger over his loss and the harsh city of San Francisco surrounding him, he begins to remember: the people and places that wait 2,000 miles away in his Kentucky home, the comfort he knew as a farmer, and his symbiotic relationship to the soil. Andy laments the modern shift away from the love of the land, even as he begins to accept his own changed relationship to the world. Wendell Berry’s continued fascination with the power of memory continues in this treasured novel set in 1976.Sku: 9781582434155

From the Publisher: It is only a matter of time before declining churches will have closed their doors for good because no one sounded the alarm.’ Our culture is becoming increasingly hostile to Christianity, and despite church planting becoming more popular; our churches are dying more quickly than we can plant new ones. We are struggling to reach our communities for Jesus. In this timely and much needed book, John James urges us to wake up to this crisis. John argues that if we are to build up existing church members and reach new ones for Jesus then we can’t simply pull the plug on dying churches in favour of planting new ones. John honestly and warmly shares his own experiences of revitalisation and his passion to see churches transformed by the God who delights to resurrect the dead. This book is an essential read for those considering this kind of ministry, or for those who want to understand the role revitalisation can play in the re–evangelisation of our nation.3 GradesSku: 9781911272076

SaleOur K–12 school system is an artificial product of market forces. It isn’t a good fit for all—or even most—students. It prioritizes a single way of understanding the world over all others, pushes children into a rigid set of grades with little regard for individual maturity, and slaps “disability” labels over differences in learning style. Caught in this system, far too many young learners end up discouraged, disconnected, and unhappy. And when they struggle, school pressures parents, with overwhelming force, into “fixing” their children rather than questioning the system.Sku: 9780393285963

From the Publisher: The book of Revelation is both intriguing and intimidating. We want to know what the future holds for believers but the strange creatures, cryptic numbers, and stark warnings contained in the book puzzle us and the future remains a mystery. We decide Revelation is just too difficult and give up on understanding its message. In these undated devotions, Bible teacher, Justin Mote, reassures us that the book of Revelation ‘is not as daunting as we might think’. Justin helps us to understand the unfamiliar pictures by showing us their roots in the Old Testament and uses reflection questions to encourage us to apply the message of this book to our lives today. Getting to grips with Revelation can lead to wonderful blessing, assurance about the future, and great encouragement to keep going as a Christian now.Sku: 9781913278199
