When Hurting People Come To Church
$22.99
People are hurting at a scale we’ve never seen. They’re dealing with an onslaught of issues like anxiety, grief, mental illness, family troubles, and hopelessness. Pastors and counselors can’t see everyone in need. This book can help.
Based on national research with more than 2,000 church leaders, social researcher and bestselling author Shaunti Feldhahn and psychologist and professor Dr. James Sells show how this is the church’s moment -and present a tested vision that is already thriving in churches of every size across the country!
We have an incredible opportunity to bring healing to the hurting, take the load off of the already-too-busy pastor and counselor, and grow healthy church communities of care–for now and many years to come.
Today, we face a dramatic rise in every psychological and spiritual need, just as affordable counseling solutions are more difficult to find. For perspective, 25 million people–more than the population of Florida–are not getting help for severe anxiety alone. Enter the church and millions of Christian lay people who understand brokenness, grace, and the power of relationship.
In every community, the church has the opportunity to be a key place people go for help . In fact, church growth experts describe this type of church care ministry as the evangelism, discipleship, and church growth method of the 21st century.
This book will share how this works, and equip you as a busy leader to:
*understand the mental health crisis in your community
*raise up motivated lay people within the church to help address the spiritual and emotional needs of the hurting
*partner with counselors and other mental health professionals most effectively
*organize the church’s time and resources to reach the most people, while freeing you to step in where you are most needed
*grow your outreach to your community
Don’t miss this opportunity to meet people’s needs, grow your people, and grow your church.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak (Large Type)
$28.99God always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.

Know Thyself : The Game Of Temperaments
$29.95Discover the secret building blocks of your personality with this fun and enlightening game that reveals players’ temperaments – the personal qualities that make them who they are!
We are all born with distinct personality traits. Some love going to parties, while others seek solitude. Some are naturally brash and assertive, while others are content to just get along.
We don’t pick and choose these character features; they’re just part of the way we’re made.
Ancient philosophers identified four basic temperaments that wise thinkers through the ages have used to understand human nature.
Now comes Know Thyself! The Game of Temperaments – the first game to help you identify, understand, and appreciate your own temperament, and those of your friends and family.
Take charge or follow the lead? Jump in feet first or analyze and contemplate? Introvert or extrovert? Focused or distractible?
All of these traits point to the temperament you were born with. Which one is yours, and how much of the others do you have?
