The Question That Never Goes Away Zondervan

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.

Summary

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. The Question is highlighted in Newtown, Connecticut, where at the scene of the elementary school murders an ambulance driver said, “All of us on the fire and ambulance corps are volunteers. I’ve seen some awful things, but we don’t train for something like this—nobody does.” The Question raises it...

Philip Yancey serves as editoratlarge for Christianity Today magazine. He has written thirteen Gold Medallion Awardwinning books and won two ECPA Book of the Year awards for What's So Amazing About Grace? and The Jesus I Never Knew. Four of his books have sold over one million copies. Yancey lives with his wife in Colorado.

The GodFirst Life Uncomplicate Your Life, God's Way Stovall Weems

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.

Summary

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? The Godfirst Life gives a fresh and practical perspective on what Christian discipleship is all about. With clarity, depth, and simplicity, Pastor Weems reveals core truths that have mystified and been misunderstood by Christians and nonChristians alike. A mustread for all believers and a musthave for pastors and churches, The Godfirst Life will be a standard resource for believers and churches around the world for years to come.

Stovall Weems is the founder and lead pastor of Celebration Church in Jacksonville, FL. Celebration is a global, diverse, growing multisite church, with more than twelve thousand people in weekly attendance. As a pastor, teacher, writer and soughtafter conference speaker, his ministry focuses on building the local church, reaching people with the gospel, and developing passionate followers of Ch...

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

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 grandfather, who died 30 years before Colton was born, then shared impossibletoknow details about each. He describes the horse that only Jesus could ride, about how "reaaally big" God and his chair are, and how the Holy Spirit "shoots down power" from heaven to help us.

Told by the father but often in Colton's own words, the disarmingly simple message is heaven is a real place, Jesus really lo...

Todd Burpo is pastor of Crossroads Wesleyan and a volunteer fireman. He and his wife, Sonja, have four children: Colton is an active 14yearold; he has an older sister, Cassie; a younger brother, Colby; and a very special sister he met in heaven, yet to be named.

Satisfied Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption Jeff Manion

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? Satisfied is for those drowning in debt, as well as those getting farther and farther ahead financially. It is for those who are crippled by comparison. Whose frame of reference is shaped by what they lack, rather than the blessings they possess. It is for those who have forgotten who they are, and mistakenly equate their self worth with their net worth. It is for those with full closets and empty souls. In Satisfied, popular communicator and pastor Jeff Manion provides an inspiring and transformative vision for living a deeply contented life in the midst of a consumerdriven, materialistic, and often shallow culture. Satisfied draws richly from six passages of scripture, exploring the way in which these messages...

Jeff Manion is the senior teaching pastor of Ada Bible Church (adabible.org) in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he has served for 30 years.

How to Be Rich It's Not What You Have. It's What You Do With What You Have. Andy Stanley SummaryNew 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? This book will force conversation and reflection around the topic of what to do with what people have. Jesus could not have been any clearer. It’s not what you have that matters. It’s what you do with what you have that will count for you or against you in the kingdom of heaven. Andy encourages readers to look at richness differently, which might just lead their families, communities, and the world to look at Christians differently.

Andy Stanley is the founder of North Point Ministries, Inc. (NPM). Each Sunday, more than 33,000 people attend one of NPM’s seven Atlantaarea churches. In addition, NPM has planted over 25 churches outside the metro Atlanta area with a combined weekly attendance of more than 15,000.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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."

Bestselling author Amy Clipston shares her personal story of donating a kidney to save the life of her husband.

Bestselling author Amy Clipston overcame hardship and tragedy early in her marriage, but nothing could have prepared her for the trials she would face when her husband was diagnosed with kidney disease shortly before the birth of their first son. With nearly 100,000 people needing kidney transplants, Joe was on a long list of recipients waiting for a match. After watching her husband suffer through transplants, a rejected kidney, and interminable dialysis, Amy took the ultimate risk in the hopes of saving her husband’s life and the life of a woman she didn’t even know.

Amy’s story is one of strength, courage, and patient endurance in the face of an uncertain future. Readers will be inspired by her resilience, encouraged by her faith, and humbled by the realization that they too are ultimately helpless without the power of God. The Gift of Love will appeal to readers w...

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."

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

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. His prayer for readers is to experience a wakeup call to move forward and determined on an upward path.

Mark Atteberry is the awardwinning author of eleven books. He has been the preaching minister of Poinciana Christian Church in Kissimmee, Florida since 1989. A popular speaker, he has preached and led workshops at countless churches, conferences, colleges, and retreats. He is married to Marilyn, his high school sweetheart.

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

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 intimacy, losing sight of the big picture, and others, have the ability to be any man's undoing. Atteberry's mission is to remind men of the joy of living within God's boundaries, because he believes there's a...

l What does the Bible say about forgiveness? Why must we forgive at all? l How do we honor those who act dishonorably toward us, especially when they are as influential as our parents? Can we ever break free from the "sins of our fathers"?

l What does forgiveness look like in real life? Do I have to let an estranged parent back into my life? How do I forgive a parent who has passed away?

Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus A Devout Muslim's Journey to Christ Nabeel Qureshi

Tells a dynamic story of conversion from Islam to Christianity. Educates readers on American Muslim life and beliefs. Offers apologetics based appendices to help readers understand the difference between Islam and Christianity.

Many Westerners are confused about Islam, somewhat fearful of Muslims, or simply uninformed about the relationship between the Islamic and Christian faiths. In turn, many Muslims are hindered by cultural, intellectual, and theological barriers from understanding, or even rightly hearing, the gospel of Jesus Christ. In Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus, former devout Muslim Nabeel Qureshi describes his dramatic journey from Islam to Christianity, complete with the friendships, investigations, and dreams and visions he encountered along the way. Throughout his story Qureshi provides a compassionate yet powerful apologetic for Christianity over Islam, with an emphasis on relationships and love. Appendices by popular scholars and experts provide further information for Muslims to consider and for Christians to reference in spiritual discussions with Muslim friends. Engaging as a story and useful as an apologetic resource, Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus introduces readers to a powerful story of the c...

Nabeel Qureshi is a Christian apologist and director of Creed 2:6 Ministries. A former Muslim, he now engages in public debates with Muslim leaders and speaks to audiences around the country on Christianity’s superiority to Islam.

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.

When the skies above appear stormy, how will you steer that internal plane we call attitude?

As the world around us delivers challengesall the while marching on at its own inevitable pacethe attitude we choose affects each of us individually. And yes, an attitude can be chosen.

Redefining Leadership CharacterDriven Habits of Effective Leaders Joseph M. Stowell

Respected pastor and author provides a new generation of leaders with a counterintuitive look at Christian leadership, demonstrating that great leadership in God’s eyes begins when the leader’s heart is aligned with his.

Respected pastor and author, Joe Stowell, draws on his years of experience in leadership at the Moody Bible Institute, Radio Bible Class Ministries, and Cornerstone University to provide a new generation of leaders with a counterintuitive look at Christian leadership. Drawing on principles and stories from Scripture, Stowell demonstrates that great leadership in God’s eyes begins when the leader’s heart is aligned with his. Stowell explores the unique ways in which Jesus Christ transforms a person’s understanding of leadership by redefining our priorities and our identity as a leader. He explains how the right process always trumps the shortterm, shortsighted goal of merely producing impressive outcomes, and how knowing who you are as a follower of Christ is the key to leading well in any situation.

Dr. Joseph M. Stowell serves as the President of Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Joe also works with RBC Ministries, partnering in media productions, outreach to pastors, writing, and a web ministry called Strength for the Journey. His books include The Trouble with Jesus, Following Christ, Simply Jesus and You, and Radical Reliance. He earned degrees from Cedarville University a...

Parenting the Wholehearted Child Captivating Your Child's Heart with God's Extravagant Grace Jeannie Cunnion

Helping parents give their kids the one thing they need more than anything else: the knowledge that they are fully known and fully loved by God.

Moms and dads are frantic and weary from the pressure to be perfect parents raising perfect kids. 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 guides parents on a transformative journey into raising not perfect but wholehearted children—children who live out of the knowledge that they are wholeheartedly and unconditionally loved (and liked!) by Jesus Christ. Moms and dads who are exhausted from the pressures that most parenting books place on them will appreciate this fresh approach to parenting that sets them and their ch...

Loveology God. Love. Sex. Marriage. And the NeverEnding Story of Male and Female. John Mark Comer

A much needed new book from a popular pastor to help singles understand what the Scriptures teach about love, marriage, sex, romance, singleness, masculinity, and femininity—helping men and women understand the purpose of marriage before they tie the knot.

In the beginning, God created Adam. Then he made Eve. And ever since we’ve been trying to figure out what to do next. Loveology is just that—a theology of love. With an autobiographical thread that turns a book into a story, popular pastor and speaker John Mark Comer shares about what is right in male/female relationships—what God intended in the Garden. And about what is wrong—about fallout in a postGenesis 3 world, east of Eden. Loveology begins at marriage (the ending) and works backward. Each topic breaks down into a chapter: marriage, love, sexuality, romance and dating, singleness, masculinity, and femininity, ending with an indepth Q + A dealing with the most asked questions about sexuality and relationships. This is the book for singles and engaged couples both inside and outside the church who want to learn what the Bible says about sex and relationships. Who are tired of Hollywood’s message (sex is God), and the church’s message (sex is sin), and know there has to be an “Optio...

John Mark Comer is the lead pastor of Solid Rock—A Jesus Church, a growing community of Jesus followers based in Portland, Oregon. Prior to planting Solid Rock in 2003, he served as the college pastor at a Calvary Chapel mega church in Southern Oregon. He is married to Tammy, and they have three children, two boys and a girl.

Hands Free Mama A Guide to Putting Down the Phone, Burning the ToDo List, and Letting Go of Perfection to Grasp What Really Matters! Rachel Macy Stafford

Popular blogger and writer invites individuals to go “Hands Free” in her first book that is based on her blog by the same name and receives more than 1.5 million unique visitors each month.

Technology is the new addiction. While time is spent checking email, sending texts, and surfing social media, the chance to engage with our kids and loved ones is lost. With heads down and hands full, we’re looking at screens instead of the eyes of the people who matter most. And then there are the neverending todo lists, the jampacked schedules. Weren’t smart phones and digital calendars supposed to make all that easier? In July 2010, special education teacher and mother Rachel Macy Stafford decided enough was enough. Tired of losing track of what matters most in life amidst technology, busyness, and unrealistic social pressures, Rachel began practicing simple strategies that enabled her to momentarily let go of daily distractions and initiate meaningful human connection. She was able to see how both external and internal distractions were sabotaging her happiness and preventing her from bonding with the people she loves.

Two little girls, frozen in black and white. One picture worth killing for.

Federal prosecutor Lisa Waldren's estranged father wants her to investigate a cold case from his FBI days. Lisa nearly refuses, even though a wrongly convicted man faces execution for murder. Then her father reveals a photograph: a little white girl playing alongside a little black girl at a rally in 1965 where the shooting of a civil rights leader took place. She recognizes herself in the photo.

She was there.

Lisa agrees to help, resolved to boldly seek answers she's skirted for decades. What she discovers are layers of deception, both personal and professional, reaching as high as the head of the FBI. Possibly even the president.

And though Lisa and the other girl may have escaped the 1965 shooting physically unharmed, her little friend, now grown, bears the scars of it. All because of the color of her skin. As Lisa and her father get closer to the truth, the real killer turns the hunt around.

Though there have been many stories about the Cup of Christ, the Holy Grail, after the Last Supper, this is the first imaginative account of the Cup’s previous history and significance. Nehemiah, the young son of a Jewish woman, a weaver from Jerusalem, is born and raised among the Jews who didn’t return to Jerusalem from the Exile. Educated by Rabbi Kagba, one of the magi present at Jesus’ birth thirty years earlier, Nehemiah grows up with the expectation of a sooncoming Messiah.

When young Nehemiah must travel the long caravan road to Jerusalem, he is charged with an unusual mission—to carry a mysterious object back to the holy city of Jerusalem . . . an object whose reappearance heralds the Messiah’s arrival.

Butterfly Palace Colleen Coble

Elegance and wealth. Privilege and politics. The extravagance of the Butterfly Palace overwhelmed Lily's senses and nearly smothered her painful memories. She pushed away her misgivings . . . She was perfectly safe in this huge house.

Austin, Texas1904: Abandoned by the love of her life and still mourning the loss of her mother, Lily Donaldson has turned her back on the pain and come to Austin for a fresh start, working for the Marshall family as a kitchen maid in their luxurious mansion, the Butterfly Palace.

The Prodigal A Ragamuffin Story Brennan Manning , Greg Garrett

Manning and Garrett completed this novel shortly before Manning’s passing earlier this year. In The Ragamuffin Gospel Manning argued that understand imagery and symbol better than doctrines and dogma, and this story dramatically illustrates his great theological themes. This novel is being released ...

Brennan Manning, author of The Ragamuffin Gospel whose powerful message of grace and forgiveness has transformed millions, partnered with criticallyacclaimed writer Greg Garrett to retell one of his favorite stories, the Parable of the Prodigal Son. Jack Chisholm is on top of his game: lead pastor of a big church in a big city, thousands of members, a huge physical plant. His books sell millions of copies, and he is a public figure, sharing his life’s philosophy: “We have got to do better.” He is also living a lie—nobody could be as holy as his congregants think he is, and like all of us, he has his share of faults, flaws, sins. When one of these comes to light, the board of deacons gives him a choice: walk away, or be publicly shamed. They wouldn’t dare, he thinks. I mean too much to this church. So he laughs at them, refuses to even acknowledge what he has done. And they fire him, publicly, messily. Jack loses everything, overnight: his church, his friends, his money, his reputation, a...

Brennan Manning spent his life and ministry helping others experience the unconditional love of Jesus Christ. A recovering alcoholic and former Franciscan priest, his own spiritual journey took him down a variety of paths, all of them leading to the profound reality of God's irresistible grace. His ministry responsibilities varied greatly from teacher, to minister to the poor, to solidary refle...
