Encouragement and advice for every boy-mom

I’m Outnumbered!One Mom’s Lessons in the Lively Art of Raising Boys

Laura Lee Groves

Boy #1 is a blessing. Boy #2 is a joy. But what happens with boy #3? And what if there is a #4? Or more? Suddenly, Mom is outnumbered. Throw Dad into the mix, and you have enough testosterone to chase Mom out the front door and keep her on the run from dawn to dusk.

A father can tell you a lot about raising boys. Researchers and psychologists can give you a lot of statistics and advice. Other parenting books can generalize. But only a mom of all boys can really explain what life is like when you are surrounded by men. From one “boy-mom” to another, I’m Outnumbered! offers sound advice and encouragement for every mom who has more than one son, even if there’s a girl in the mix. Author Laura Lee Groves has raised four redheaded boys and has lived—in fact loves—to tell about it. Her strategy of intentional parenting (guiding moms to see their role as proactive parents) has been gleaned from her own experience, from other boy-moms, and from parenting experts. Her combination of personal anecdotes and authoritative research will show boy-moms how to

• handle sibling rivalry• foster leadership and teamwork• combat conflict• stay organized• love them unconditionally• and much moreLaced with touching and humorous stories, this practical manual provides

encouragement, inspiration, and information—especially for the outnumbered mom.

Practical advice for parents and children to help them choose appropriate music—together

Infinite PlaylistsHow to Have Conversations (Not Conflict) with Your Kids About Music

Todd Stocker with notes by Nathan Stocker

With the easy availability and abundance of downloadable music and MP3 players, almost every teenager knows exactly how to find their favorite bands and songs online. Recent studies show that more than 50 percent of teens own their own iPod and even more search for music on iTunes. A world of influence is at their fingertips, so how and when should Christian parents monitor the music their children are listening to without creating undue conflict and argument? For author Todd Stocker, the day his son asked his preference between Van Halen and Def Leppard was the day he realized he and his son needed to have the “music talk.”

Infinite Playlists is a handy guide to healthy conversation between parents and kids. Writing as both father and music-lover, Stocker calls parents to recognize music as a gift from God so they can help their kids determine the emotional, physical, and spiritual influences of their song choices. He offers a balanced look at the difference between Christian and secular music, and gives practical guidelines parents and kids can follow to choose appropriate music—together.

Competing titles may try to convince parents to hate or reject secular music or, alternately, convince them that Christian music is the only way to go. Infinite Playlists does neither, seeking first to provide parents with an understanding of God’s purpose for music, then to provide biblical and respectful guidelines to aid responsible music choices. Ultimately, the goal is healthy conversation—not conflict—between parents and children so everyone can see and appreciate what music can teach us about life, about God, about others, about relationships, and about the world.

An exciting conclusion to Andrea Carter’s Circle C Adventures

Andrea Carter and the Price of TruthSusan K. Marlow

Thirteen-year-old Andi Carter wants to surprise her mother with the perfect birthday gift. But keeping her plans to earn money a secret from her family is easier said than done. When her peach harvesting job ends in disaster, she secures a position at the local general store after school.

At last, one of Andi’s ideas is working out . . . until the day she witnesses a back-alley crime that places a beloved citizen at the scene. A divided town and the suspect’s vengeful younger brother put pressure on Andi to admit she made a mistake. And when her horse, Taffy, disappears, Andi must reexamine her conscience and decide: Is the price of telling the truth worth losing Taffy forever?

The Circle C Adventures have captivated the hearts of children ages 8–14 (and their parents!) and this last adventure is one they won’t want to miss.

A touching novel that takes readers down memory lane and into the deep south of the 1970s

A Season of MiraclesA Novel

Rusty Whitener

For twelve-year-old Zack Ross, life revolves around Little League. The 1971 season is his last chance to win the championship and with the help of a new power hitter named Rafer, that just might happen. Though Rafer is a little different, he can hit a baseball farther than Joe DiMaggio, and Zack knows that’s exactly what the Robins need to win it all.

As the season gets underway, it seems like nothing—not Rafer’s differences, the war in Vietnam, or the attention of girl named Rebecca—will deter Zack and his team from their goal. But little by little, Rafer begins to make an impression on them all, giving them small gifts that seem awkward at first but are soon overshadowed by a gift they never saw coming—a miracle in the making. When Rafer is suddenly hospitalized, the team bands together, determined to stand by their new friend, determined to win the trophy in his honor. Larger questions of faith and love trouble Zack’s mind, but in the end, he will see there’s more to life than winning or losing. And years later as he looks back, he will finally understand the real miracle of the season—the gift of God’s grace.

A Season of Miracles is a compelling story of a friendship characterized by differences and of grace despite flaws. At times hilarious and at times tearful, it will bring southern fiction fans back to the simpler days they’ve long forgotten—and will never let them go.

An even-handed and thorough strategy to help a new generation engage the challenges of atheist peers

Is God Just a Human Invention?And Seventeen Other Questions Raised by the New Atheists

Sean McDowell and Jonathan Morrow

Atheism is making a comeback. From bookstores to bus campaigns, the question of God is up for public debate—and well-known atheists like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens are leading the charge. While these authors, who have been dubbed “The New Atheists,” argue against religion in general, they aim most of their criticisms and complaints at the world’s largest religion—Christianity. Why are people reading books that bash God and ridicule faith? And how can Christians respond?

The writings of the New Atheists are especially challenging to the emerging generation who are skeptical of authority and have not been given answers to the hows and whys of faith’s honest questions. For these readers especially, authors Sean McDowell and Jonathan Morrow have penned an accessible yet rigorous look at the arguments of the New Atheists. Writing from a distinctively Christian perspective, McDowell and Morrow lay out the facts so that the emerging generation can make up their own mind after considering all the evidence. Divided into two parts—the first addressing the scientific and philosophical challenges to belief in God and the second dealing with the moral and biblical challenges—Engaging the New Atheism will respond to each major argument in a way that is balanced, thorough, and easy to understand.

The current religious landscape is both an opportunity and a challenge for people of faith, write authors Sean McDowell and Jonathan Morrow. Now is the time to respond.

Permission to live what we say we believe

TruthDareDare to Live the Truth You Believe

Laura Ross Greiner

Life is full of dares—challenges that require sufficient courage, bold behaviors, and an adventurous spirit. Yet, when it comes to faith, people lack the same courage, choosing instead to stand idly by and wait for permission to live what they say they believe.

It’s time to wake up, says author Laura Ross Greiner. It’s time to fully embrace the dares God has given us: Dare to say yes. Dare to have faith. Dare to trust. And more. With inspiring, captivating, and sometimes heart-wrenching stories of people who dared to believe in the face of great pain, Greiner challenges Christian women to stand up, live big, and embrace the truths of the gospel no matter what. The story of a three-year-old stricken with cancer dares women to see proof that God exists even in hard times. The struggles that a single mom has with depression teach readers to trust that God can change us, if we dare to let Him. The plight of a woman whose husband is having an affair dares us to wait for God’s direction.

While most Christian-living authors promise peace, few stare Truth in the face as boldly as Laura Ross Greiner. The provocative challenges of TruthDare will bring readers on a fulfilling—albeit uncomfortable—trek to a fuller, deeper life spent in God’s grace.

Help and hope to navigate life as a newly divorced mother

Rediscovering Your Happily Ever AfterMoving from Hopeless to Hopeful as a Newly Divorced Mother

PeggySue Wells

Mourning the loss of a marriage and facing life as a single mother is not something any married woman thinks will happen to her. But with more than half of all marriages ending in divorce and more than 9.8 million single mothers currently residing in the United States, this is becoming a reality for too many women. What happens then? What’s the next step? How is a woman supposed to put her world back together and provide an encouraging environment for the kids when her own life—and heart—are breaking?

Writing with the empathy of someone who has seen and survived divorce, PeggySue Wells offers a practical and encouraging resource for the newly divorced woman. With inspiring Scripture passages, light humor, and sage advice, Rediscovering Your Happily Ever After gives vital steps to reestablish emotional and spiritual health—and nurture children at the same time. Whether she asked for this new life or not, each reader will learn how to move forward by replacing old patterns with new habits that bring hope, adventure, and significance.

Countless books teach readers how to save a broken marriage, others explain how to travel through a divorce, but few—if any—speak directly to the single mom whose life is defined by and lived for her children. Being a mom during difficult times such as these is not easy, admits Wells, but with a little hope and trust in God, women can rewrite their fairy-tale ending and discover a new happily-ever-after.

“For women in transition, this is an extra large scoop of hope. Readers will discover that whatever is over our heads is under God’s feet.”

—Pat Palau, wife of internationally-known evangelist Luis Palau

Learn to train the prophetic gift within you

Eat the Word, Speak the WordExercising a Bible-Based Prophetic Ministry

Rachel Hickson

“This book will take you, the reader, on a journey that will train you to respect and handle the Word of God correctly and then equip the prophetic gift within you. . . . This book seeks to inspire you to read your Bible more deeply, speak His Word more profoundly, and understand His revelation more completely.”

—from the introduction by the author

We are all familiar with Bible teachers whose knowledge fails to translate into vision, action, or understanding. Conversely, there are teachers whose prophetic gift is considerable—but their grip on Scripture is weak. Christians are easily misled, becoming “prophet hunters rather than God chasers,” as Rachel puts it. However, a good Bible teacher, honed by meditation on the Word to be alert to the Spirit’s leading, is truly worth hearing. This balanced approach is a foundational element of Christian ministry.

“Rachel boils down years of mature experience to offer us a balanced, biblical, pastoral, practical, and often inspirational handbook on how to grow in handling both the ‘taught’ and the ‘caught’ Word of God. This is a real gem.”

—Simon Ponsonby, Pastor of Theology, St Aldate’s Oxford

“Rachel at her best . . . she rightly takes us back to the Bible as the starting point for all prophetic ministry.”

—Stuart Bell, Senior Pastor, New Life Christian Centre, Lincoln

Pathway of PeaceA 40-Day Devotional

Rachel Hickson

So many Christians feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life and just need to stop, slow down, and hear God. For some, life has become so frantic and so busy that the idea of making time for God is more wearying than refreshing.

Using the proven 40-day approach—the number of days it takes to learn a new habit—Rachel Hickson helps weary Christians genuinely connect with God again, establishing a new rhythm for daily life.

Jack O’Malley hates shopping. He hates snow. He even hates Christmas. All three at once is Jack’s idea of a very bad day. Storming into Starbucks to escape, Jack almost knocks someone over. Someone quite beautiful. And mysterious. And his entire life—what he once was, who he is now, and who he could become—flashes before him. This contemporary retelling of Charles Dickens’s classic story A Christmas Carol is funny, moving, and really makes you think.

Practical, day-to-day advice on dementia, based on a true story

Dementia: Frank and Linda’s StoryNew Understanding, New Approaches, New Hope

Louise Morse

Dementia affects 35,000,000 people worldwide. Until recently, dementia sufferers were considered lost people in a living body. But thanks to a better understanding of how the brain works and how it is affected by dementia, experts and caregivers have developed a new method of caring that can help maintain the individual’s personhood.

Frank and Linda’s story powerfully depicts this new approach to caregiving. Through a narrative that starts with the first, early signs, it focuses on the three important aspects of dementia—living, helping, and spiritual support. Built on the foundational Christian belief in the sanctity of all life, the book is filled with pointers and information, including an appendix that lists major support and research organizations.

A unique worship resource that includes practical suggestions for visiting and offering spiritual support to those with dementia

Worshipping with DementiaMeditations, Scriptures and Prayers for Sufferers and Carers

Louise Morse

Often dementia hides the person from us, but never from God. “We have accounts of people with dementia coming to faith on hearing the gospel,” says Louise. “God never gives up, and neither should we. Visiting and supporting, ministering and caring is not about what it does for us, but what it means to the person with dementia.”

This practical book explains why Christians are called to care spiritually for people who may not be able to show their response. It assures us that once we commit our lives to Christ, His Holy Spirit comes to live in us, and He has promised never to leave us. This is true hope for weary caregivers and good news for sufferers.

The large selection of Scripture verses, prayers, and devotional entries along with practical advice from an author with considerable experience working with dementia sufferers make this a one-stop worship resource for caregivers, sufferers, families, pastors, church groups, and medical professionals.

A Very Private GraveDonna Fletcher Crow

Felicity Howard, a young American studying for the Anglican priesthood at the College of the Transfiguration in Yorkshire, is devastated when she finds her beloved Fr. Dominic bludgeoned to death and Fr. Antony, her church history lecturer, soaked in his blood. Following the cryptic clues contained in a poem the dead man had pressed upon her minutes before his death, she and Fr. Antony—who is wanted for questioning by the police—flee the monastery to seek more information about Fr. Dominic and end up in the holy island of Lindisfarne, former home of Saint Cuthbert. Their quest leads them into a dark puzzle . . . and considerable danger.

A Very Private Grave is a contemporary novel with a thoroughly modern heroine who must learn some ancient truths in order to solve the mystery and save her own life. The narrative skillfully mixes detection, intellectual puzzles, spiritual aspiration, romance, and the solving of clues both ancient and modern.

“History and mystery and murders most foul keep the pags turning . . . A fascinating read.”

—Liz Curtis Higgs, bestselling author of Thorn in My Heart

Two women share how they overcame feelings of spiritual inadequacy

Live Life Big, or Stay in BedRealizing and Releasing Potential in Women

Heather Puffett and Hazel Pattison

Both Heather and Hazel are married to high-achieving Christian leaders, with agendas to change the world. When they first met they recognized in each other the same symptoms: a need to don masks of coping and efficiency to hide their feelings of inadequacy and fear.

From their first meeting, they quickly developed a friendship that allowed each to recover the self that God had intended. This book chronicles their journey. Written in a conversational style, each author reveals her feelings and thoughts regarding the change both were experiencing. Realizing that the situation they faced was a daily reality for millions of Christian women, and that it is much easier to spot potential in another than in one’s self, they felt called to found a training and mentoring program for women.

Now in its sixth year, this program helps women to discover and develop their own potential, and also helps them with time management, creativity, consistency of character, accountability, and the skills for lifelong discipleship.

Approaching GodLisa Repko Borden; foreword by Pete Greig

Here are six intimate portraits of God to help us know Him better. This delightfully illustrated book on prayer looks at how we see or imagine God, and how we can then approach Him. Countering misconceptions about God, these clear truths about the nature of God encourage confidence and intimacy with Him:

1. God the artist, creator, who loves creative expression.

2. God as good company, friend, one who enjoys our company and really likes us.

3. God our protector/provider, redeeming the image of father through His faithful care of us.

4. God our lifegiver, a nurturing God who gathers us in His arms and picks us up when we fall.

5. God our teacher, guide, and life-coach: not handing out rules and regulations but giving practical insight for wisdom, health, and good living.

6. God as physician, healer. He won’t always provide miracles, yet God does heal physically and emotionally, so we can approach with expectation and hope.

“This exquisite little book leads us deeper into the most important discovery of our lives: a fuller, more familiar, encounter with God. . . . At the heart of Lisa Borden’s message is an ancient certainty that God’s love is constantly bubbling up and breaking through in the very simplest stuff of life.”

The enthralling story of how Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire

The Crucible of ChristianityThe Forging of a World Faith

Jonathan Hill

Today Christianity is the largest religion in the world, its influence felt in every corner of the globe. But where did this religion come from? How did it take shape and formulate its beliefs?

This enthralling book takes us back to the beginnings, setting us in the world of the Roman Empire and assessing the dominant philosophies of the time. How was the New Testament written and determined? How, after the first century AD, did Christianity set out on the road to an intellectually coherent account of its faith? How did it relate to Gnosticism, the other main religion that grew up at the same time?

In The Crucible of Christianity we see the battle lines drawn and understand how notions of orthodoxy and heresy emerged. We meet the key thinkers who forged Christianity out of the crucible of dispute and conflict.

Areas explored include:• How Christianity passed from one generation to the next• Opposition and Persecution• The Church and the Roman Empire• Christian Philosophy• Heresy and Orthodoxy• The First Monks• Divisions in the Church

A short, practical, and personal guide to residential care

Learning to Let GoMaking the Transition into Residential Care

Penelope Wilcock; foreword by Pam Rhodes

Sooner or later many of us will have to “go into care.” How do we, and those who are involved in our care, make wise choices? This book is written both for those preparing to enter residential care and for those (professionals, volunteers, pastors, family members, and friends) who can offer support to ease the struggle of transition.

Learning to Let Go acknowledges and explores the intense experience of grief and bereavement that surrounds the relinquishment of independent living. The book explores how to ensure that those going into care retain their identity and are not reduced to peripheral status as “patient” or “resident.”

Covering practical details from how to choose a home to what to pack when moving, this book will help facilitate a smooth transition at this emotional time of upheaval.

Christmas Stories for Little AngelsSarah J. Dodd; illustrated by Dubravka Kolanovic

This book follows in the style set by Prayers for Little Angels and Bedtime Stories for Little Angels.

The six stories are all drawn from the Bible stories of the Nativity, with a focus on children and, of course, angels: Mary and the angel; Joseph and the angel; the journey to Bethlehem; the Shepherds and the angels; and an endearing story based on the Wise Men’s visit in which a young child gives his gift to the baby Jesus.

Kolanovic’s pastel illustrations give this picture book a delightful charm, which can be shared with all little angels during the Christmas season.

A hole-in-the-page novelty book that leads from one Christmas scene to another

What Can You See? On Christmas NightVictoria Tebbs; illustrated by Russell Julian

This novelty book cheerfully leads children from one Nativity scene to another, with a hole in the page that acts as a window through which the reader can catch a glimpse of what comes next.

As the story is retold, a repeated refrain asks of the characters—Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds, and the Wise Men—“and what did they see?” Looking through the hole and turning the page reveals a new point of view and so the story continues until the reader is finally presented with the stable scene, illustrated with an abundance of detail, and is asked the concluding question, “and what can you see?”

A fun way to share the Nativity story, helping children take note of all the characters and events involved.

Usable Greek helps for all New Testament students, from novice to veteran

The Handy Guide to New Testament GreekGrammar, Syntax, and Diagramming

Douglas S. Huffman

This compact reference can be used with a Greek New Testament, providing a convenient overview of three key elements of learning Greek: grammar, syntax, and diagramming. Other charts and books offer one or two of these aspects, but The Handy Guide to New Testament Greek combines all three.

In addition to reviewing grammar and syntax, this volume teaches phrase diagramming as a tool to quickly discover sermon and lesson outlines in the Greek text. Students who have had as little as one year of Greek as well as seminary-trained pastors will find a help in this handy guide, which is designed to be less cumbersome and more readily accessible than large grammar and syntax textbooks.

Discover philosophy’s impact on Christianity in this new theology textbook

From Plato to JesusWhat Does Philosophy Have to Do with Theology?

C. Marvin Pate

From Plato to Aristotle to Heidegger, philosophy has often played a key role in the development of the formulations of Christian theology, this despite the protests of those purists who claim to the contrary that Christian dogma is exclusively divine revelation “unimpeded” by mortal reason. In fact, however, human contribution to various creedal formulations of the church throughout the centuries is unmistakable. Christians should be engaged in and articulating their theology with the help of politics, sociology, history and, yes, philosophy. The message of the incarnation is that God entered into real time and space for the purpose of revealing Himself to humanity in terms that it could understand. This is a necessity if the gospel is to be contextualized for each new generation.

From Plato to Jesus explores the philosophical currents that have and are shaping systematic theology. C. Marvin Pate challenges the notion that philosophy should not influence theological understandings. This book is written as a supplemental or primary textbook for a systematic or historical theology class, and thus, for ease of use, is arranged by the standard theological categories.

FAQs on the subject of Biblical Law and Christianity

40 Questions About Christians and Biblical LawThomas R. SchreinerSeries edited by Benjamin L. Merkle

“This book is an instant classic that deserves a wide readership.”

—from the foreword by A. Andrew Das,

distinguished chair, Professor of Religious Studies, Elmhurst College

Dr. Thomas R. Schreiner examines the interplay between Christianity and biblical law in a new addition to the 40 Questions & Answers series. Schreiner not only answers the tough questions that flow from a discussion about the Old Testament Levitical Law, but also writes clearly and engagingly for the student, the pastor, and layperson.

Readers will enjoy the clarity and encouragement of 40 Questions About Christians and Biblical Law.

Questions include: What does the word law mean in the Scriptures? Was the Mosaic covenant legalistic? Does the OT teach that salvation is by works? What does the expression “works of law” mean in Paul? Is perfect obedience to the law mandatory for salvation? Does Paul teach that the OT law is now abolished? What does Paul mean by “righteousness of God”? Does the Pauline teaching on justification contradict Jesus’ message? Do James and Paul contradict one another on justification by works? How should we understand the role of the law in Luke-Acts? What is theonomy, or Christian reconstructionism, and how should it be

evaluated? What role does the law have in preaching?

Challenges and equips the reader to intentionally choose to be grateful

Sea agradecidoChoosing Gratitude

Nancy Leigh DeMoss; foreword by Joni Eareckson Tada

Gratitude is a choice. If we fail to choose it, by default we choose ingratitude. And once allowed into the heart, ingratitude does not come by itself but with a lot of other seedy companions that only succeed in stealing joy. To not choose gratitude—daily and deliberately—is more costly than we usually realize. And when we do choose a lifestyle of heartfelt, humble gratitude, we are mindful of the benefits received from our gracious Savior and those He has placed around us. By intentionally thanking God and others, bitterness and entitlement are replaced with joy and the humble realization of just how undeserving we really are.

Jueces/Rut: Cultiva una vida de integridadJudges/Ruth: Cultivating a Life of Character

Elizabeth George

In the midst of the dark days of the Judges, God faithfully raised up men and women of character to lead His people. This journey through Judges and Ruth focuses on the godly character of women such as Deborah, Jephthah’s daughter, Samson’s mother, Naomi, and Ruth—God’s woman of excellence. Women seeking God’s heart are encouraged to:

• See giant-of-the-faith potential in ordinary lives

• Cultivate the good qualities of character

• Honor God’s faithfulness with our own

A persuasive case for the kind of preaching our culture needs: faithful exposition of Scripture

Proclame la verdadHe Is Not Silent

R. Albert Mohler Jr.

In He Is Not Silent, Mohler reveals the state of preaching today:

“Contemporary preaching suffers from a loss of confidence in the power of the Word . . . from an infatuation with technology . . . from an embarrassment before the biblical text . . . from an evacuation of biblical content . . . from a focus on felt needs . . . from an absence of gospel.”

Preaching—the practice of publicly expositing the Bible—has fallen on hard times. In this powerful book, Al Mohler instructs pastors in a view of preaching that is theologically profound, culturally aware, pastorally sensitive, and spiritually edifying. This is a book with an important message on the crucial topic of expositional preaching for churches and pastors today.
