Lord, Teach Me to Pray in 28 Days
| Paperback | Paperback (Large Print) |
| Paperback | Paperback (Large Print) |
So many books on prayer offer techniques and tips about enhancing prayer life but leave the reader adrift when it comes to actually praying. In Lord, Teach Me to Pray in 28 Days, Kay Arthur goes right to the ultimate role model and expert on prayer: the Lord Jesus Christ. When the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, He said, "Pray, then, in this way. " In the five short verses that followed, affectionately known as the Lord's prayer, Jesus gave Christians an inexhaustibly rich outline that enables us to transform the way we pray. . . and live. Kay Arthur writes "The Lord's prayer is a collection of index sentences, covering every element of prayer. Therefore, when you follow sentence by sentence, principle by principle, you find yourself covering every possible aspect of prayer. Every requirement for prayer, every element of worship and praise, every perspective of intercession and petition is covered in the Lord's prayer. What a treasure our Lord gave us!" Lord, Teach Me to Pray in 28 Days is sure to inspire a new confidence, hope, and joy in every believer who longs to enrich his or her prayer life and deepen his or her faith.

Traveling Light: Releasing the Burdens You Were Never Intended to Bear
| Hardcover | Audio Cassettes (2) |
| Hardcover | Audio Cassettes (2) |
Weary travelers. You've seen them-everything they own crammed into their luggage. Staggering through terminals and hotel lobbies with overstuffed suitcases, trunks, duffels and backpacks. Backs ache. Feet burn. Eyelids droop. We've all seen people like that. At times, we are people like that-if not with our physical luggage, then at least with our spiritual load. We all lug loads we were never intended to carry. Fear. Worry. Discontent. No wonder we get so weary. We're worn out from carrying that excess baggage. Wouldn't it be nice to lose some of those bags? That's the invitation of Max Lucado. With the twenty-third Psalm as our guide, let's release some of the burdens we were never intended to bear.

Traveling Light for Mothers
| Hardcover |
This morning, somewhere between your first step on the floor to your last step out the door, you stuffed your bag full. No, not your purse, or a diaper bag, or your child’s lunch box, but one created in your mind. And you didn’t stuff it with books, band-aids, or baby food-you filled it with burdens. The kind of burdens moms carry. The suitcase of guilt. A sack of discontent. You drape a duffel bag of weariness on one shoulder and a hanging bag of worry on the other. No wonder you’re so tired at the end of the day. Toting those kind of bags is exhausting. Why don’t you try traveling light? Try it for the sake of those you love so dearly: your husband, your children, your parents. Have you ever considered the impact that excess baggage has on relationships? God wants to use you, you know. But how can he if you’re exhausted? Using the comforting message of the twenty-third Psalm, Max Lucado reminds mothers to listen to God’s tender voice urging us to release those burdens we were never meant to bear.

A Distant Presence: The Story Behind Paul's Letter to the Philippians
| Paperback |
| Paperback |
Drawing from the writings of ancient historians, the best conclusions of modern scholarship, and the most readable contemporary translations, Tim Woodroof combines the power of story with the insights of a biblical commentary. In A Distant Presence, Woodroof envisions what life was like for the believers in first-century Philippi. You'll feel transported to another time as he takes you on a journey through ancient Italy and Macedonia, providing front-row seats to the colorful interactions between the great Apostle Paul and his trusted coworkers: Luke, Silas, Clement, Epaphroditus, Lydia, Timothy, and the feuding Euodia and Syntche. Paul's relationship with the Philippians was marked by a tension between his brief, irregular visits and his long, frequent absences. Over a twelve-year period, the Apostle was only physically present with them a matter of weeks. The Philippians loved Paul dearly. Still, his was a "distant presence." However, Paul was never far from these Christians in his thoughts and affections. From the founding visit to Philippi to the writing of his pivotal "letter to the Philippians" while imprisoned in Rome, Paul continued—from a distance—to disciple these early believers through the problems and challenges of following Christ. His letter reached over the miles to encourage the Philippians in the first century. Now it reaches over the centuries to inspire us today. Gain new insight and a fresh appreciation for the book of Philippians using this unique study tool. Even if you've never picked up a commentary before, you'll enjoy exploring Scripture in this brand new way. And if you have picked up a commentary, only to be overwhelmed by more information than you need, you'll appreciate a tool that culls the best of what the scholars say without bogging down in the details.

The Messenger
| Paperback |
| Paperback |
The church in Philippi is in trouble. A stranger has been through their midst, spinning a web of deception and division. Leader has turned against leader, friend against friend. Confusion and strife shakes the torn body like aftershocks from an earthquake. Epaphroditus, the young potter, knows what he must do. The church needs answers, and if anyone has them, it’s Paul. After all, Paul introduced them to Jesus the Messiah. He established the church in Philippi, and taught them that salvation was available for all mankind, by grace through faith. But their father in the faith is in Rome––and in prison. Can Epaphroditus survive the dangerous journey and get a message to him? Can Paul help the group of new believers before it's too late? Using scholarly research and biblical text, author Tim Woodroof creates a narrative that brings the pages of Scripture to life. The Messenger will help you experience Paul’s ministry at Philippi through an unfolding story that will captivate your mind and touch your heart.

Walk This Way: An Interactive Guide to Following Jesus
| Paperback |
| Paperback |
In his first private session with the disciples, Jesus didn't give them His mission statement or a plan to change the world. Instead, He used eight succinct sentences, ninety-six simple words, to draw a picture of what He required in a disciple. He gave the instruction manual for discipleship with an attitude: the Beatitudes. Walk This Way makes life-changing discipleship accessible to everyone. Each chapter takes a look at one of those first instructions and then helps you think it through, talk it over, and live it out. It creates an interactive mix of the Beatitudes with culturally relevant quotes and statistics, top ten lists, and stories to guide you to walk the way Jesus did. Whether you're in need of refreshment or a place to start, Walk This Way provides the simple instruction manual you need.

And Then I Had Teenagers
| Paperback |
| Paperback |
Yates, author of And Then I Had Kids, tackles the trials of parenting adolescents in this down-to-earth Christian manual. She encourages parents to not just endure, but to enjoy, their children's teen years. She identifies some common challenges teens who suddenly become uncommunicative, who reject the faith of their childhood or who are hypercritical of themselves and others. She also discusses "hot topics" such as dating, driving, grades, drugs, TV and movies. What places this parenting guide a cut above is its honesty; Yates is quite frank about the joys and sorrows of raising her own five kids (who were so closely spaced that there was one year when they were all teenagers! Yikes!). Christian parents will appreciate Yates's warm and wise counsel. -- Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
