Companions in Suffering: Comfort for Times of Loss and Loneliness

This e-book was chosen by our readers to be placed on sale.

Author(s): Wendy Alsup
Publisher: Intervarsity Press
Price: $2.99 (Nov 10-11)

Have you experienced an ongoing trial that left you wrung out emotionally? Do you feel alone in your pain?
Though suffering often leaves us feeling isolated, God invites us into the community of the Trinity and offers us many companions in Scripture. We experience loneliness alongside the exiled Israelites. We journey with David as he pleads to God for rescue. With Asaph we confess our unbelief. With Job we learn to lament. With Mary and Martha we learn to wait.
In God’s community, there is sweet fellowship, even in the hardest of circumstances. Journey in these pages with Wendy Alsup through her story of suffering, and more importantly, with the God who walks with us in the wilderness.
This warm and contemplative book also includes a helpful appendix for those who companion a suffering loved one.

The Jesus Prayer: A Cry for Mercy, a Path of Renewal

Author(s): John Michael Talbot
Publisher: Intervarsity Press
Price: $3.99 (Ends Nov 11)

An ancient prayer for every day: “Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, a sinner.”

These words have strengthened and comforted believers for centuries. The Jesus Prayer comes to us from the Eastern Christian tradition. In these pages, John Michael Talbot explores more of the roots of the prayer along with the theological and practical meaning of each word in the lives of believers today. Readers are invited to meditate on the twelve simple words that lie at the heart of the Christian East.

Complete with historical context and exercises for self-reflection, this book shows how a single prayer could sustain the spiritual life of a civilization.
Each chapter ends with a brief practice using the prayer.

Baptism: Three Views (Spectrum Multiview Book Series)

This e-book was chosen by our readers to be placed on sale.

Author(s): David F. Wright
Publisher: Intervarsity Press
Price: $2.99 (Nov 3-4)

The Christian church confesses “one baptism.” But the church’s answers to how, whom and when to baptize, and even what it means or does, are famously varied. This book provides a forum for thoughtful proponents of three principal evangelical views to state their case, respond to the others, and then provide a summary response and statement. Sinclair Ferguson sets out the case for infant baptism, Bruce Ware presents the case for believers’ baptism, and Anthony Lane argues for a mixed practice.
As with any good conversation on a controversial topic, this book raises critical issues, challenges preconceptions and discloses the soft points in each view. Evangelicals who wish to understand better their own church’s practice or that of their neighbor, or who perhaps are uncertain of their own views, will value this incisive book.
