Ancient Israels Women Of Faith
$25.99
Do You Know the God of Ancient Israel’s Women of Faith?
Believers today are facing a profound spiritual poverty–an ignorance of the women who shaped their faith and, as a result, an incomplete understanding of the God those women faithfully served.
The inspired writers of the Old Testament mention over one hundred women by name and countless others in passing. Yet how many of us know the stories of these women and the God who wrote them?
*Sheerah built three cities and had one named after her.
*Jehosheba executed a covert operation to preserve the Davidic line.
*Miriam left us a legacy of worship that persists to this day.
Then there are the women who proclaimed the good news of God, prophesied truth to power, protected Israel from her enemies, relentlessly interceded for God to act, and passed along a living faith in the God who did. Each of these women and their stories finds a place in God’s redemptive plan for his creation.
In Ancient Israel’s Women of Faith, Claude Mariottini introduces readers to a fresh reading of Scripture that takes seriously these stories. In doing so, he challenges anachronistic, modern readings of the text by providing helpful contextual information, including nuances in the original language, histories of translation, and observations on the cultural, political, legal, economic, and religious landscapes of their time.
Readers of this title will walk away with new insights, questions, and areas for research, but, more importantly, they’ll walk away with a new understanding of the God of ancient Israel’s women of faith.

Every Young Mans Battle
$15.99In this world you’re surrounded by sexual images that open the door to temptation. They’re everywhere-on TV, billboards, magazines, music, the internet-and so easy to access that it sometimes feels impossible to escape their clutches. Yet God expects his children to be sexually pure. So how can you survive the relentless battle against temptation? Here’s powerful ammunition.
Steve Arterburn and Fred Stoeker, the authors of the hard-hitting best-seller Every Man’s Battle, now focus on the temptations young single Christian men like you face every day-and they offer workable, biblical strategies for achieving sexual purity.
The authors examine the standard of Ephesians 5:3-“there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality”-in a positive and sensitive light. And they explain how an authentic, vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ is the key to victory over temptation. Every Young Man’s Battle will show you how to train your eyes and your mind, how to clean up your thought life, and how to develop a realistic battle plan for remaining pure in today’s sexually soaked culture. As a result, you’ll experience hope-real hope-for living a strong, pure life God’s way.
