100 Bible Verses Everyone Should Know by Heart Everyone Should Know by Heart
$14.94 USD $14.99 USD
Change your life from Genesis 1:1 to Revelation 22:20.
With the immediacy of Internet searches and ease of handheld devices, the custom of memorizing Scripture may not seem necessary, but best-selling author Robert J. Morgan makes an airtight case for reviving this rewarding practice in 100 Bible Verses Everyone Should Know by Heart.
“It’s vital for mental and emotional health and for spiritual well-being,” he writes. “It’s as powerful as acorns dropping into furrows in the forest. It allows God’s words to sink into your brain and permeate your subconscious thoughts. It saturates the personality, satiates the soul, and stockpiles the mind. It changes the atmosphere of every family and alters the weather forecast of every day.”
In a series of brief opening chapters, Morgan prepares us for this new old way of thinking and then presents his experienced list of 100 crucial verses, providing sidebar notes, quotes, and memorization tips for each. Extra pages are included to add your favorite verses, extending this life-changing exercise and memorization habit.
“Rob Morgan never disappoints me. His books do what a good book should do: make you think about life from a new and fresh perspective.”

Believer’s Baptism Sign of the New Covenant in Christ
$24.98 USD $29.99 USD
Is believer’s baptism the clear teaching of the New Testament Scriptures? What are the historical and theological challenges to believer’s baptism? What are the practical applications for believer’s baptism today? Volume two in the NEW AMERICAN COMMENTARY STUDIES IN BIBLE & THEOLOGY (NACSBT) series for pastors, advanced Bible students, and other deeply committed laypersons addresses these compelling questions.
Indeed, Believer’s Baptism begins with the belief that believer’s baptism (as opposed to infant baptism or other faith proclaiming methods) is the clear teaching of the New Testament. Along the way, the argument is supported by written contributions from Andreas Kostenberger, Robert Stein, Thomas Schreiner, Stephen Wellum, Steve McKinion, Jonathan Rainbow, Shawn Wright, and Mark Dever.
Users will find this an excellent extension of the long-respected NEW AMERICAN COMMENTARY.

Biblical Hermeneutics
$26.78 USD $29.99 USD
Biblical Hermeneutics is a textbook for introductory courses in hermeneutics. I takes an interdisciplinary approach that is both balanced and practical with six major foci: the history of biblical interpretation, philosophical presuppositions, biblical genre, the uniqueness of Scripture, the practice of exegesis, and use of exegetical insights that will be lived and communicated in preaching and teaching.
Biblical Hermeneutics is designed for students who have little or no knowledge of biblical interpretation. It provides, in one volume, resources for gaining a working knowledge of the multi-faceted nature of biblical interpretation and for supporting the practice of exegesis on the part of the student. The first chapter “A Student’s Primer for Exegesis” by Bruce Corley gives the student a bird’s eye view of the entire process. It becomes for the student a kind of template to which they will return again and again as they engage in the process of exegesis.
This revised edition of Biblical Hermeneutics contains seven new chapter that deal with the major literary genre of Scripture: law, narrative, poetry, wisdom, prophecy, Gospels and Acts, epistles, and apocalyptic. The unique nature of Scripture is presented in part three that addresses the authority, inspiration, and language of Scripture. The book contains two extensive appendices, “A Student’s Glossary for Biblical Studies” and an updated and expanded version of “A Student’s Guide to Reference Books and Biblical Commentaries.

A best-selling book now available in paperback for the first time!
Do you want to know God and really believe Him? Do you want to find satisfaction in God, experience His peace, and enjoy His presence? Do you want to make the freedom Christ promised a reality in your daily life?
In Breaking Free, Beth Moore embarks on a study of selected passages from the book of Isaiah, drawing several parallels between the captive Israelites and today’s Christians, in order to show how to make freedom in Christ a daily reality. Moore teaches readers to remove obstacles that hinder freedom by identifying spiritual strongholds in their lives and overcoming them through the truth of God’s Word—truth that will set us free.
Chasing God
$17.19 USD $17.99 USD
Maybe you’ve never asked the question out loud, but you’ve wondered. You do the things that look good on paper: read your Bible, pray, attend study groups and go to church on Sundays.
But you aren’t convinced you really know Him.
Angie Smith understands, because she had run circles around the same paths searching for Him, frustrated at her lack of progress. And she probably would have continued to do so had it not been for one realization that changed everything.
She wasn’t following God; she was trying to catch up with Him.
And without realizing it, you may be as well.
It’s a distinction that affects every aspect of our lives with Christ, and it begins with learning where we’ve relied more on man’s explanation of God than God Himself.
So many requirements, so many rules, and so much guilt where there is supposed to be freedom. It’s the reason you wonder if you’ve measured up, and the nagging voice that tells you you’re a failure as a Christian.
Three simple words changed everything for Angie, and she believes they can do the same for you.
Stop chasing God.

Commentary on Hebrews Biblical Theology Christian Proclamation Commentary #36
$30.67 USD $39.99 USD
“Most modern commentaries consist of significant introductions and then conduct an intensive exegesis of the text, chapter by chapter and verse by verse. By way of contrast, the introduction and the commentary are relatively brief and non-technical. With the proliferation of commentaries today, a new commentary should have a distinctive approach. We now have many excellent commentaries on Hebrews which examine the letter in some detail. Many of these commentaries provide a useful function in that they draw on other parallels from both Jewish and Hellenistic literature to illuminate Hebrews. The advantage of such an approach is that the reader is plunged into the cultural world of the author. On the other hand, the careful sifting of various traditions may cause the reader to lose track of the argument of the letter. At the same time, the theology of the author may be muted, not because it isn’t recognized but because it may be difficult to follow in the welter of information given to readers. I hope a commentary that probes the theology of Hebrews will prove to be helpful. I have been helped by many scholars in preparing this commentary, especially those who have written in depth commentaries and those who have written monographs on the letter. No one writes from an objective standpoint, and hence I should state up front that I write as an evangelical Christian who believes that the scriptures are the living and authoritative word of God.”
Corazones, mentes y manos Un manual para entrenar pastores
$16.44 USD $16.99 USD
Corazones, mentes y manos es el resultado de un método de capacitación que ha desarrollado el Dr. David Sills, docente, misionólogo y presidente de una agencia misionera, en base a décadas de experiencia en misiones alrededor del mundo. El Dr. Sills, académico misionero reconocido en el campo del desarrollo de liderazgo de misiones autóctonas, prestó servicios en la conferencia del Comité Lausana para la Evangelización Mundial celebrada en Pattaya, Tailandia, y posteriormente en el plantel de educación teológica de International Orality Network (Red Internacional para el Aprendizaje Oral). Cumplió dos estudios de investigación a gran escala con pastores autóctonos que necesitaban capacitarse. Finalmente, fundó una agencia misionera para cubrir las necesidades identificadas a través de esos emprendimientos, como así también las necesidades sobre las que cada día le escriben misioneros de diversas partes del mundo. Dicho modelo de formación es la esencia de Corazones, mentes y manos, el cual ya se ha utilizado para capacitar a pastores en siete centros distintos de formación en diversos entornos a nivel internacional.Corazones, mentes y manos es un sistema de comprobada eficacia que equipará a los pastores con la información básica que deben conocer para cumplir su rol bíblico y también servir como recurso para misioneros, voluntarios y otros pastores, a fin de capacitar a quienes Dios ha llamado para servirlo. El contenido se desarrolla alrededor del método creado por el Dr. Sills para equipar a los pastores con una base bíblica (su “mente”), una base espiritual (su “corazón”) y una base metodológica (sus “manos”). Eso garantiza que sabrán segmentar y enseñar correctamente la Palabra de Dios, comprender la necesidad para dar el ejemplo de las características espirituales de un pastor y tener las herramientas prácticas necesarias para dirigir y administrar una iglesia local.Hearts, Heads, and Hands is the manifestation of a training method that missiologist, professor, and missions agency president, Dr. David Sills, has developed on the basis of decades of missions experience around the world. The leading missionary scholar in the field of indigenous leadership development, Dr. Sills served at the Pattaya, Thailand gathering of the Lausanne Committee on World Evangelization, and later on the theological education taskforce of the International Orality Network. He completed two massive research studies with indigenous pastors in need of training, and ultimately founded a missions agency to meet the needs identified through these endeavors as well as out of the needs that missionaries from around the world write him about every day. That training model is the substance of Hearts, Heads, and Hands, which has now been used to train pastors at seven separate training centers in a variety of global settings. Tried, tested, and proven, Heads, Hearts, and Hands will equip pastors with the foundational information they must know to fulfill their biblical role as well as serve as a resource for missionaries, volunteers, and other pastors to train those God is calling to serve Him. The content is built around the method Dr. Sills developed to equip pastors with a biblical foundation (their “head”), a spiritual foundation (their “heart”), and a methodological foundation (their “hands”), ensuring that they know how to rightly divide and teach God’s Word, understand the need to model the spiritual characteristics of a pastor, and have the practical tools necessary to lead and administer a local church.
