The Question That Never Goes Away Zondervan

Summary Author Philip Yancey is well aware that no book can “solve” the problem of pain. Yet he feels compelled to pass along what he has learned from the land of suffering. Although we cannot grasp the master plan of the universe, which allows for so much evil and pain (the Why? question), we can neverthe...

Some days, the news seems too much to bear. Yet another tsunami or earthquake or flood or fire or war atrocity. One more gun­toting madman stalking young people in idyllic Norway or moviegoers in Colorado or schoolchildren in Newtown, Connecticut. We turn off the news only to get a phone call about expectant parents with a stillborn baby, or a loved one whose cancer has returned.

Really, God? we ask. This again?

If we have faith in God, it gets shaken to the core. What was God doing in the moment when that tragedy could have been prevented? If we can’t trust God to keep our children safe or our loved ones from dying in agony, what can we trust God for? It is the question that never goes away.

Zondervan The Question is highlighted in Newtown, Connecticut, where at the scene of the 9780310339823 elementary school murders an ambulance driver said, “All of us on the fire and On Sale Date: 12/3/13 ambulance corps are volunteers. I’ve seen some awful things, but we don’t train for $16.99 Hardback something like this—nobody does.”

Summary Pastor and vibrant speaker of a church attracting over 10,000 people each weekend offers this passionate, action­oriented advice and application on having a better life, with God at the center.

There are thousands of how­to books for improving various areas of life. And there are nearly as many books written for believers offering a framework for the “right” approach to a new life in God.

What if it were possible, Pastor Stovall Weems asks, to boil it all down to one practical, un­complicated principle that would yield the vibrant, purposeful spiritual life so many are looking for? What if, in our relationship with God, we had one simple and sustainable touchpoint to experiencing a deep and satisfying walk with Christ?

Heaven is for Real Movie Edition A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back Todd Burpo, Lynn Vincent

Summary

This #1 New York Times bestseller gets a limited­edition version with movie art and a new introduction and updated epilogue from the authors.

Heaven Is for Real is the true story of the four­year­old son of a small town Nebraska pastor who, during emergency surgery, slips from consciousness and enters heaven. He survives and begins talking about being able to look down and see the doctor operating and his dad praying in the waiting room. The family didn't know what to believe, but soon the evidence was clear.

Colton said he met his miscarried sister, whom no one had told him about, and his great Thomas Nelson grandfather, who died 30 years before Colton was born, then shared impossible­to­know 9780849922077 details about each.

Summary Written by popular communicator and pastor, Jeff Manion, this book weaves personal vignettes with deep lessons from Scripture including biblical, historical, and cultural background, bringing new relevance and application toward a counter­cultural lifestyle of abundant satisfaction.

Why is a contented, satisfied life so evasive? What deep hungers drive reckless purchasing habits, out of control accumulation, and crazy consumer lifestyle for so many people? And why are people often driven more by what their neighbors own than what will truly make them happy?

How to Be Rich It's Not What You Have. It's What You Do With What You Have. Andy Stanley

Summary New trade book from bestselling author and pastor Andy Stanley, author of Deep and Wide.

How to Be Rich by pastor Andy Stanley explores 1 Timothy 6:18. Andy biblically redefines what wealth is, how to use it, and helps readers practice being rich so they will be good at it if they should ever be so fortunate.

The early Christians took this command seriously. Generosity was the hallmark of the early church. They did for those who could not do or would not do anything in return. That was new. That got people’s attention.

Is that how people would describe Christians today?

20 and Something Have the Time of Your Life (Without Wasting Any of It) Barna Group , David Kim

Summary Twentysomethings today are redefining what this decade means and what making a positive contribution to society looks like. One reality is today's economy ­ you may find yourself a recent college graduate with no job prospects. As such, many twentysomethings are shifting away from career, to calling, looking for ways to impact the world. Or maybe for you, a career or job is what you do in order to support the more meaningful work you love, like photography, music, brewing, or traveling.

Likely you have found a tribe of like­minded people who are taking the journey with you, asking yourselves big questions like what to do with life, what does it mean, why should I settle down with a spouse and house so soon? These questions have huge ramifications for all aspects of society. Twentysomethings need new ways of thinking about institutions and finding rootedness in a transient culture, while at the same time institutions need new ways of thinking about and incorporating twentysomethings.

Becoming Home Lead the Way in Solving the Orphan Crisis Barna Group , Jedd Medefind

Summary Caring for orphans makes grace touchable. When Christians choose to adopt, foster, mentor or support care for orphans around the world, it reveals God's true character to the world like nothing else we can do. This softcover book unpacks specific steps that you can take to care for orphans in distress.

Some of these steps are “big” choices like fostering or adopting; some are smaller choices like supporting work abroad or mentoring a foster youth. But all have the impact of revealing God’s love to someone who wants to be home for good.

Join Jedd Medefind, president of the Christian Alliance for Orphans (CAFO), as he reveals the profound sense that deep, sustaining love for orphans springs not from duty, guilt or even idealism, but foremost as a response to the way we've first been loved by God.

The Hyperlinked Life Live with Wisdom in an Age of Information Overload Barna Group , Jun Young , David Kinnaman

Summary It’s an age of accelerated information and information overload. The rate and way in which we receive information has changed dramatically: from newspapers and radio and a few nightly news programs to constant news online. We have made our lives available to the world in “tweetable” moments. As much as we try to stop consuming the vast amounts of info coming at us, we wrestle against a paranoia of ‘missing out’ on important information or being out of the loop on something. How can we rest from information, take a Sabbath for our technology or information use? How does this help us to become the right kind of factivist? The onus is more and more on us to find "the truth" and to be aware of our own biases in what we share and don't.

Join Jun Young, an award­winning entrepreneur and communications strategist, and David Kinnaman, the President of Barna Group, in this Barna Frame as they wrestle through what our responsibility looks like in how we read and disseminate information.

Fighting for Peace Your Role in a Culture Too Comfortable with Violence Barna Group , Carol Howard Merritt

Summary There are lots of questions we must ask ourselves when we talk about violence, and our role in perpetuating it or in creating peace. Why are we, as Christians, more comfortable with violence in our movies than sex? What does it mean that Jesus called us to love our enemies? How can we, in our churches, cultivate a peace that might reshape society? Do we create it by constantly protesting violence? By preaching? By rethinking our foreign policy? By somehow making peace cool?

Join Carol Howard Merritt, a pastor, writer and speaker, as she tackles these tough questions and others in this Barna Frame. Violence is a tough, timely topic, and one that we, as the Church, have the chance to transform.

Greater Expectations Succeed (and Stay Sane) in an On­Demand, All­Access, Always­On Age Barna Group , Claire Diaz­Ortiz

Summary Remember when all you needed was a cool business card for cocktail parties? Now social status is determined in a hundred ways that all come with their own pressures­how many Twitter followers do you have? How many facebook page likes? How much traffic does your site get? Are you speaking? Traveling? How full is your inbox? While pressure has always been there, in many ways that pressure is more public than ever.

The world is both bigger and smaller today. With access to so much media and so quickly, we know everything that's going on in the world. We are bombarded with possibilities and opportunities. It seems like we have limitless choices. It's easy to feel like your life is small, that you aren't doing enough, that other lives, careers, and even cities are more exciting than yours. The challenge today is, with limitless public pressure on how your life measures up against everyone else's, how do you find contentment in this context?

Sacred Roots Why Church Still Matters in a Post­Religious Era Barna Group , Jon Tyson

Summary "Why should I invest myself in something that I'm not sure does any good?" This is a question many people today are asking about the church. Data shows young people are leaving the church, especially in urban contexts. Yet as Jon Tyson will show you in this Barna Frame, the church has much to offer cities—and individuals—in the 21st century.

Whether you come with an open­mind, skeptical, or already committed to your local church, join Jon Tyson, lead pastor of Trinity Grace Church in New York City, as he makes the case for why church matters.

Schools in Crisis They Need Your Help (Whether You Have Kids or Not) Barna Group , Nicole Baker Fulgham

Summary Millions of children are not fulfilling their God­given potential in many of our nation’s classrooms. Their potential and purpose is literally being left on the floor of classrooms in many low­income communities. What may God have called them to do? How will a substandard education possibly prohibit them from accomplishing that purpose? In what ways are Christians and churches accountable for that? How are we our brother and sister’s keeper with respect to a quality education?

Join Nicole Baker Fulgham, formerly on the national staff of Teach for America and the founder of The Expectations Project, as she explores what our role is in solving the nation’s crisis for public education. This Barna Frame explores a critical topic of our time – Schools in Crisis.

Wonder Women Navigating the Challenges of Motherhood, Career, and Identity Barna Group , Kate Harris

Summary There is a new reality for mothers in the 21st century­it's a different world with different goals than it was even a generation ago. As little girls, today's moms didn't grow up with ONLY dolls and toy kitchens and princesses and visions of idyllic domesticity and motherhood behind a white picket fence: they were given these but also a little plastic doctor's bag and a coloring book full of potential careers to choose from. "You can be anything you want, child." It's a message of empowerment and it's beautiful. But, as many of those young girls grew up, a message that was once meant to convey opportunity has begun to feel like a pressure cooker. What once was "You can have it all" has now become "You need to have it all." You need to have the perfect job, the perfect husband, the perfect house, the perfect kids, the perfect play dates and craft nights and date nights and DIY Pinterest projects and #nofilter Instagrams.

What does it mean to be a mom in a world like that? Where does voca...

Where the Wind Leads A Refugee Family's Miraculous Story of Loss, Rescue, and Redemption Vinh Chung, Tim Downs

Summary Through a series of miraculous events, a Chinese family, living in Vietnam, joins the ranks of "boat people"and overcomes oppressive struggles to raise its children in the foreign culture of America. At three years of age Vinh Chung and his family of ten fled communist oppression in Vietnam.

Restless Because You Were Made for More Jennie Allen

Summary A practical plan to identify the threads of your life and how to intentionally weave them together for God's glory and purposes.

Restless explores the fact that God has called each of us to do great things in his name, and then helps us discover what that might mean for each of us individually. Jennie says, "We are called to dream but we're afraid to. But because we are called, when we don't act on it we become restless­restless to find purpose, to make a difference in the world, to matter."

Jennie doesn't suggest women add one more thing to their to­do list, but instead invites them to stop and listen where they are. She frees them to be themselves and to see themselves as valuable. In addition to this permission to dream she helps them get over themselves and their issues and then offers a simple process on highly designed journal Thomas Nelson pages to identify the raw materials­the unique threads­they've been given by digging 9780849947063 into five areas: Pub Date: 1/7/14 $15.99 Paperback / softback / Trade l Gifts paperback (US) l Suffering l Places 192 pages Carton Qty: 36 l People Religion / Christian Life l Passions REL012130 5.5X8.38 Using her own... 140mm | 213mm Author Bio Jennie Allen's passion is to communicate a bigger God through writing and teaching.

THE SOLOMON SEDUCTION What You Can Learn from the Wisest Fool in the Bible Mark Atteberry

Summary Have you found yourself in circumstances you never envisioned, tangled up with people you never approved of, and doing things you never imagined?

It seems impossible that the valedictorian of the entire human race would ruin his life by making dumb choices, but Solomon did. Solomon was better equipped to see through Satan's deceptions than any man who has ever lived, other than Jesus. But in the end, he became just as blind to them as everyone else.

Pay attention to the news and you'll see that it's not just the numbskulls that fall into Satan's traps. It's also the best and brightest of America's fathers, husbands, and sons. Many smart guys who love God end up being ashamed and humiliated by Satan's seductions. With humor, grace, and a pastor's heart, Mark Atteberry seeks to offer practical suggestions on how to avoid a similar fate.

The Samson Syndrome What You Can Learn from the Baddest Boy in the Bible Mark Atteberry

Summary Why do some strong men fail while others succeed? Like the biblical character Samson, all strong men­those who are successful, influential, self­confident, aggressive, or widely respected­face twelve tendencies that can lead to sin and even personal tragedy.

The adventurous and gifted Samson­whose story is told in four chapters of the book of Judges­never had the intention of fighting against God. He was just a fun­loving guy looking for a good time. Like so many strong men today, he didn't think his sin was any big deal. But it's clear as you read his story that the older he got, the more sin held him in its grip.

The Samson Syndrome is a set of twelve tendencies or challenges that strong men will always face. Obstacles like lust, ignoring good advice, big egos, fears of authentic Thomas Nelson intimacy, losing sight of the big picture, and others, have the ability to be any man's 9780849921940 undoing.

How High Will You Climb? Determine Your Success by Cultivating the Right Attitude John C. Maxwell

Summary How high will you climb? John Maxwell says it all depends on your attitude.

Nose up or nose down? Just as the angle of an airplane determines its altitude, so does the approach we take­to family, to work, to life in general­determine the attitude we present the world.

Parenting the Wholehearted Child reveals what happens when parents surrender their grip on perfection and performance and free fall into the arms of grace­ – a radical grace that proclaims, “Through Christ, you are accepted, you are enough, you are forgiven, you are worthy, and you are unconditionally loved, just as you are.” And even better, this book shows how parents can translate this message of freedom to their kids.

With vulnerability, conviction, and a lively sense of self­effacing humor, Jeannie Cunnion Zondervan guides parents on a transformative journey into raising not perfect but wholehearted 9780310340843 children—children who live out of the knowledge that they are wholeheartedly and On Sale Date: 4/8/14 unconditionally loved (and liked!) by Jesus Christ. $15.99 Paperback / softback Moms and dads who are exhausted from the pressures that most parenting books place 224 pages on them will appreciate this fresh approach to parenting that sets them and their ch...
