Mission Without Borders
$29.99Author, speaker, and former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux offers an honest, no-holds-barred account of what has really been happening in Ukraine and shares powerful stories that are soaked in resiliency and determination, faith and sacrifice in the face of overwhelming opposition.
When Russian forces invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux knew that innocent people were about to be exposed to untold brutality. He also knew that God was inviting him to get involved. With little idea of the trials that would follow, Chad’s response was simple and clear: “yes.” As he gathered a team of elite special operations veterans, he invited his twenty-five-year-old son, Hunter–also a Marine combat veteran–to partner with him in Ukraine. Over the course of seven trips, Chad saw a change in Hunter as his confidence grew and he exceled among the team. Chad’s own faith also grew as he learned to relinquish control and trust God with his son and what he witnessed in the brutality of war.
A Mission Without Borders is a powerful account of the lessons we can learn whenever we say yes to God. Chad’s experience will help readers:
*understand what the conflict in Ukraine was like for everyday citizens beyond the political fog;
*discover how a bond can grow between a father and son as they face hardship together; and
*realize that God doesn’t just call us to go to the aid of the people we know and love, sometimes he calls us to help strangers–because it’s the right thing to do.
A Mission Without Borders will take readers deep into the war in Ukraine. From Russia’s use of ballistic and chemical weapons on civilians, to the inspirational story of the role that the Ukrainian church has played in the war, Chad’s story of courage and hope needs to be heard. It is rich in human and spiritual truth and will connect deeply with readers of all walks.

Fight For Female
$19.99The very idea of womanhood is being assailed on all fronts: sexualized by our culture, eliminated from language, and silenced by the church. For decades, both sexes have been systematically undermined and stripped of their strength. Male and female were originally created as a power union, but that turned into a power struggle. For years, women listened to the lie that to be powerful they needed to act like men. Now the tables have turned, with men acting like women.
This attack is more than cultural, it is spiritual. Revelation 12:17 portrays a dragon enraged with women who has declared war on our children. Our enemy, terrified of what–and whom–we were made to reflect, seeks to blur the lines, distorting the very idea of what it means for women to bear God’s divine image.
We were made for this fight. It will require honest, intimate conversations to emerge with God-inspired answers equal to the challenges of our day. Our marriages, children, churches, communities, and futures depend on it. It’s time to unite, confident in our divine identity, clear in our commission, and courageous in our calling, to confront the darkness with love and light. It’s time to fight for female!

Filled With Dread
$6.25Do you ever get a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach in anticipation of something you don’t want to face? This sense of foreboding and apprehension is called dread. It could be about an upcoming life change, a conflict to resolve, a difficult task, or a looming diagnosis, but whatever the situation is, you wish you could avoid it at all costs.
Experienced counselor Jayne V. Clark explains that instead of being filled with alarm or trying to run away from hardship, we can face dread by faith. Jesus, who experienced the ultimate dread of the cross, shows us how to turn to our Father in heaven and trust his good purposes for us. We can walk securely in his peace because he is fighting for us and walks with us every step of the way.

Lazy Love : Recognizing And Reversing The 4 Threats To Any Successful Relat
$28.00Bestselling author and Senior Pastor of The Lighthouse Church and Ministries shares how to strengthen your relationships–with family, partners, friends, and others–and find deeper satisfaction by learning to love better.
Humans are meant to love and be loved, but so often we fall short at loving well. We take others for granted. We make assumptions. We forget to show our affection. We grow lazy.
We so often fail in our relationships with our families, our partners, our friends, and fellow humans because we are lazy in our love for one another, says Keion Henderson, pastor of the mega-church Lighthouse Church in Houston. Lazy love prevents us from experiencing the deep, soulful fulfillment we long to know. It keeps us from being known and enjoyed by those around us. And it stops us from stepping out to give who we are without expecting anything in return.In his new book Lazy Love, Henderson unpacks the four kinds of love mentioned in the Bible– eros, or attraction; phileo, or friendship; storge, or familial; and agape, or spiritual love–and shows readers how each shapes our relationships and our lives. He also encourages readers to uncover the unhealthy practices that often lead to damaged or broken relationships and helps reader break free of the patterns that keep us from loving well.
The good news is that each of us can learn to love better and to improve our relationships–with our partners, our children, our friends, our co-workers, and our neighbors. Lazy Love will help readers become better at loving others in all areas of their lives.

Lay Me In Gods Good Earth
$20.00A Christian case for natural burial
The promises of the Christian gospel are never more precious or more beautiful than in the context of death and burial. And yet current burial practices in Western society are archaic and impersonal. They fail to confront us with the reality of death, and they make it harder to process death or to grieve properly.
Kent Burreson and Beth Hoeltke have been teaching a Christian understanding of death and natural burial for many years. They argue that natural burial-laying the body into the earth in a way that allows it to decompose naturally-is not only better for the environment but is also a more accurate picture of Christian hope of the resurrection. Grounded in sound Christian teaching about death and burial, they advocate for natural burial and offer practical instructions for navigating the complex questions around burial practices.
Lay Me in God’s Good Earth is not only an immensely practical guide to natural burial; it is also an application of the hope of the resurrection to those grieving the loss of their loved ones.

Straight To The Heart
$17.99Our approach to apologetics needs to change when the very idea of “truth” is controversial. But as authors Daniel Blackaby and Mike Blackaby teach us, we can still reach people if we understand what they value most.
This practical guide to our current landscape explores five effective communication pathways:
*Story: As people wired for narrative, we can speak through the stories we live and tell.
*Beauty: In an increasingly industrialized world, we can point people to “pockets of beauty” that reveal the attractiveness of God.
*Art: In a society that celebrates the arts, we can cultivate creativity in the church, then send artists out as cultural missionaries.
*Desire: To a people motivated by love, identity, and purpose, we can show how Jesus is the perfect fulfillment of our deepest longings.
*Community: As relational creatures where connectivity is disappearing, we can offer a community of unified diversity.
Culture may be in flux, but God’s Word remains true. Straight to the Heart helps us speak to the passions that drive our culture without compromising the life-changing truth of the gospel.
