Price: $3.99       (Limited time only)

A modern Christian classic on wrestling with God amidst doubt and disappointment.

Once more the pen of Gene Edwards, author of A Tale of Three Kings and The Divine Romance, has crafted a masterfully told and profoundly moving story. The Prisoner in the Third Cell is a book of comfort, told as an unforgettable biblical drama, for those caught up in circumstances they do not understand.

As John the Baptist awaits his execution in prison, he struggles to understand a Lord who isn’t the Messiah he expected. Thought-provoking and beautifully written, this fictionalized account of the cousin of Christ addresses:

Holding onto faith in the face of adversity
Why God allows believers to endure tragedy
Continuing to trust God’s plan when life doesn’t make sense

When you take a look at our world today, it often seems as if society is imitating the decline of ancient Israel. In a historical blink of an eye, we are shedding old beliefs and grasping for new ones. What was unthinkable two decades ago is acceptable today. Yes, the world around us is changing . . . but the story of Elijah offers us hope. He shows us that one person praying to a living God is greater than 850 people praying to a dead one. He shows us how to find faith in a whitewater torrent of odd gods and bad odds.

Elijah’s story is a field manual on how to thrive during a spiritual drought. In this study guide, which accompanies the book of the same name, you will explore his story and be reminded to:

Wait for God in solitude and silence.
Pray impossible prayers.
Live with an expectation of divine disruption.
Turn to God during emotional lows.
Understand the spiritual battle we fight.
Elijah’s story will help calm your fears and guide your steps. Faith in our living God stirs a force for living life. With God’s help and following Elijah’s encouraging example, you will discover strength to ride the storm of this turbulent life with a steadfast faith.

This study guide includes:

Individual access to six streaming video sessions
Video notes and a comprehensive structure for group discussion time
Personal study for deeper reflection between sessions
A guide to best practices for leading a group

“Not only was I singled out and shamed, but I was lied to as well. I’m still trying to untangle the lies–some of them televised across the country–from the truth.”

You’ve heard some of the story: the manipulation and abuse hidden behind the traditional Christian values that the Duggar family held up on TLC’s hit reality show 19 Kids and Counting. As some of the scandal came to light, several of the Duggar children, including Jill and Jinger, have opened up about what it was like growing up in that environment.

But for the first time, Amy Duggar King–a close relative who spent almost every day with her 19 cousins and her aunt and uncle–brings the story into sharp relief, vulnerably sharing (more…)

God Never Gives Up on You
Author(s): Max Lucado, New York Times Bestselling Author
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Price: $3.99 (Aug 9 only)

2024 ECPA Christian Living Book of the Year Winner

Ever wonder if you’ve stumbled one too many times for God to use someone like you? Could you benefit from an encounter with God’s unending, unbending, unswerving love and devotion?

If your answer is yes, it’s time for you to see how God’s grace transformed Jacob’s life. And if you feel undeserving of God’s grace, this book will serve as a refresher course on God’s perfect plan to use imperfect people to do great things.

God Never Gives Up on You is for the strugglers among us and the fumbler within us. For those of us who are part saint, part scoundrel; we mean well, but we don’t always do well. We have breakthroughs and breakdowns, often in the same hour. We need no reminder of our failures. But where can we find examples of God’s steadfast grace?

No one is more suited to help assure you of God’s grace than Jacob. He was less a prodigy and more a prodigal. Strong on savvy. Weak on conscience. Jacob took advantage of his famished brother and pulled the wool over the eyes of his dying father, yet God never turned his back on Jacob. And he won’t turn his back on you. If you are ready to start counting on God’s grace and believe he never gives up on you, this book is for you.
