Price: $2.99 (April 13-14)
Honored in 2006 as a “Year’s Best Book for Preachers” by Preaching magazine.
Creation in six days
Woman from the side of man
“Sons of god” taking “daughters of men”
A massive disaster and an animal rescue boat of biblical proportions
Abraham, Sarah, Hagar and the ongoing saga of a dysfunctional family
These are just a few of the episodes that Genesis conjures up. But we miss the point if we focus on what seems strange to us. And we distort the message if we demand that this book answer questions that are strange to it. To read Genesis intelligently, we must consider the questions, the literature and the times in which Genesis was written.
In How to Read Genesis Tremper Longman III provides a welcome guide to reading and studying, understanding and savoring this panorama of beginnings–of both the world and of Israel. And importantly for Christian readers, we gain insight into how Genesis points to Christ and can be read in light of the gospel.

Author(s): R. A. Torrey
Publisher: Moody Publishers
Price: FREE (Ends April 17)
“The intelligent child of God must be driven to say, ‘I must pray, pray, pray. I must put all my energy and all my heart into prayer. Whatever else I do, I must pray.'”
Stunning and forthright, R.A. Torrey’s “little book on prayer” is a reflection of the writer who once had it said about him, “One wonders if there has ever lived a man who did so many things well for Christ.”
Torrey deals with the key elements of life-changing prayer, such as praying in the Spirit, abiding in Christ, obstacles to prayer, the best times to pray, seeking revival through prayer, and more. Torrey outlines a practical strategy for living life in conversation with God.

When an adult child leaves the church and turns away from the faith of his or her childhood, parents are left with feelings of failure, confusion over what happened, and fear of what may happen next. Statistics show the breadth of this problem: As many as 75 percent of children who grew up in Christian homes leave the church by the time they are twenty-five (Barna Group).
Writing with compassion and honesty, author and family pastor Rob Rienow comes alongside hurting parents to share a powerful message of hope: it’s never too late to point an adult child’s heart toward God. He challenges parents to accept that they are the shortest distance between their child and Christ, and though they may not have planned for it, parents can–and should–still play a proactive role in leading their child back to faith. Rienow directs parents to four tangible steps:
-Offer your heart to the Lord
-Turn your heart to your child
-Draw your child’s heart to yours
-Point your child’s heart to Christ
Full of engaging stories, insightful action steps, and inspiring Scripture, When They Turn Away is a biblically-based, practical book that teaches parents to forgive themselves, forgive their children, seek forgiveness from their children, and–ultimately–be able to affirm that there is “no greater joy than to know [your] children are walking in the truth” (3 John 4).
Considering using When They Turn Away in your church or small group? Get the companion DVD Video series, “Never Too Late” here on Amazon!
