We have two children. We used to have three. Our third child didn’t grow up and leave home, she didn’t die. We relinquished her. Aren’t adoption stories supposed to have happy endings? While there are many adoption stories that do have happy endings, this is not one of them. And we’ve come to learn we are not alone. More and more families are finding themselves in situations similar to ours, feeling like there is no way out. This book is my story of adopting a child who was unable to attach. It is a chronicle of investment and sacrifice in our daughter, the pain and loss we experienced, the grief of darkened hopes and loss of a dream. It is also a story of grace and healing, of relinquishment and new beginnings. Learn More

Have you ever wondered why God should listen to or answer our prayers? Or even questioned what prayer is in the first place, when and how we should pray and for whom and what we should be praying? If so, it is time to understand what prayer is about from God’s point of view.

Prayer is not just about speaking to God; it is mostly about listening to Him.

Identify and overcome the things that hinder an effective prayer relationship with the Lord and find out why we are even entitled to come to Him in prayer. Taking an in depth look at what the Bible has to say about the subject, “The Prayer Directed Life” equips the believer to come before the Lord with confidence that He will provide detailed guidance, provide for our needs and respond to our petitions.

Comprising individual true stories, The Totaled Woman shares the challenges and joys from a mother’s perspective in a home with five precocious children and a brilliant (if impractical) scientist husband.

Marcia Veldhuis looks beyond the crisis of the moment and finds the lessons that God would have. Day-to-day living has always been stranger than fiction! Learn More

We often hold out for God to alleviate our circumstantial suffering or pain. But what about those who suffer and fall between the cracks of conventional Christian teaching? Those that don’t have that luxury to have the horrific circumstance removed or reversed that has caused their hardship? The Lord will not reasonably reattach the legs of a person who has had both of their legs amputated or bring a women’s husband of fifty years back from the dead. Does this mean that these people have no hope? There is a solution that doesn’t depend on the transformation or relief of our circumstances.

The Lord will come through for us even if He doesn’t change our circumstances.

You’ll find that the Lord’s hope is not found primarily in physical actions of change but in the actions of Christ on the Cross.

Dolores E. Coupland experienced a heart and life change after reading "Morning and Evening," a devotional book written by Charles H. Spurgeon. Since then she has devoted many hours to studying his writings so that she could share the experience with others. "Day by Day with the Best of Spurgeon" is a collection of the best writings of Charles H. Spurgeon; an entire book centered on Jesus, his great sacrifice for us and what he means to us.

"Are you trusting in the cross? Are you resting in Jesus? If not, may the Lord teach you this blessed privilege."

Jesus is our salvation, our treasure, our heaven, our all. Bathe yourself in the love and loveliness of the Lord as Spurgeon leads us to all those precious places where our Savior lived, suffered and then died for our redemption. Learn More

Evolutionist Richard Dawkins claims that evolution is a fact and wrote a book claiming to demonstrate it. He assured the reader that he offered proof beyond reasonable doubt, with evidence more convincing, more incontrovertible, than any ever used.

However, Wayne Talbot shows that Dawkins' science is often faulty with essential proof points ignored, and that his argument style suffers from the same logical fallacies of which he accuses others. Talbot points out how much of Dawkins’ case is based on a materialistic philosophy rather than scientific fact.

If the evolution theory has been proven then we should reasonably ask,“What specifically has been proven, and what is the evidence?”

In failing to define what he is attempting to prove, we clearly see The Dawkins Deficiency, and why his proof of evolution does NOT evidence “The Greatest Show on Earth.” Learn More

In today’s post-modern society, many claim that truth—and in particular moral truth—is relative and not absolute. At the same time, most people believe in universal human rights. However, if truth is not absolute there can be no universal human rights.

This book by Stephen McAndrew, a lawyer, focuses on this often overlooked contradiction and contends that a logical examination of the tension between moral relativism and universal human rights must lead to the acceptance of the existence of absolute moral truths. Why It Doesn't Matter What You Believe If It's Not True concludes that Christianity is the source of these moral truths and therefore of universal human rights.

In this thought-provoking book, McAndrew makes the case for the existence of moral absolutes by highlighting the assumption of universal moral truth on which international human rights laws are built. Learn More

North American Christians possess unprecedented opportunities to influence the world. However, we need to be cautious not to slip into a type of postmodern colonialism in which we make ourselves the 'hero come to save the day.' Instead we must encourage indigenous believers to look to God and their own communities for resources, solutions, and interdependence, rather than making them perpetual recipients of all the good things we can do for them.

In We Are Not the Hero, missionary Jean Johnson shares lessons learned from her sixteen years in Cambodia, in an area known as the Killing Fields, including why our North American culture, church experiences, and financial solutions to church growth will not work elsewhere. This is a practical guide for church planters, missionaries, students, and churches, to develop their skills and to maximize their efforts in fulfilling the Great Commission. Learn More
