Overwhelmed Mom : Quiet The Chaos, Mind What Matters, And Enjoy Your Life A
$15.99Is there a happy medium between Pinterest perfection and chaos culture?
Moms hear a chorus of competing messages. One minute, we’re told we can do it all, and the next, we’re encouraged to be “real women” who live as “Hot Mess Mombies.” Both anthems-perfection and chaos-leave us feeling burdened.
In Overwhelmed Mom, Jamie Erickson shows us how to push back against the weariness epidemic that plagues so many women on both ends of the spectrum. Through biblical principles and flexible solutions, she’ll help us learn to adjust our homes, schedules, and attitudes so that we may experience right-now relief and forward movement in common stress areas.
The Try-Hard gospel of the world assures us that if we just got up earlier, stayed up later, and micromanaged every waking moment, we can outrun our overwhelm. But no amount of running on empty will ever help us catch up. Reshaping a harried life is long-game, soul work.
Overwhelmed Mom equips women to edit their lives with intention, find purpose and vision in the work God has called them to, and create daily rhythms that will help them steward their days with delight, not drudgery. Each chapter ends with questions and prompts for readers to consider as they unmoor themselves from the relentless to-do list that plagues them.
We don’t have to keep living as overwhelmed moms-Jamie invites us to experience freedom and enjoy the gift of motherhood.

Tame Your Thoughts
Original price was: $29.99.$17.97Current price is: $17.97.When was the last time you awakened to a swirl of out-of-control thoughts? Perhaps you were overwhelmed with the weight of worry, the fear of failing, or the grip of guilt. The way we think directly impacts our joy and peace. In Tame Your Thoughts, Max Lucado provides three biblical and practical tools to renew your mind and transform your life.
Our thoughts have consequences. Most people would agree that positive thoughts generate positive actions. Negative thoughts activate negative behavior. But do we understand that we can manage our lives by managing our thoughts? Not only does neuroscience back this concept, but the idea is also embedded throughout Scripture. “Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind” (Rom.12:2 esv). Tame your thoughts and transform your life!
In Tame Your Thoughts, Max explores three key thought-management tools and then applies them to the most common thought problems: worry, guilt, anxiety, and other types of mental quicksand that threaten to trap us. God loves us too much to let us lead a life marked by poor thinking. He made our brains; he can retrain our brains. God has not left us alone in this battle of the mind.
Stuck in your head? Hounded by regrets? Weighed down by worry? Change is possible! The thoughts that have characterized your past need not characterize the rest of your life. Readers will learn to:
*take thoughts captive,
*test each message against the truth of Scripture,
*interrupt poisonous thought threads, and
*think and act like Jesus.If God can resurrect the dead, can he not resurrect hope? Defy depression? Clarify confusion? Silence shame? Destroy doubt? Banish bitterness?
Take God at his word. “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Tim. 1:7 nkjv, emphasis added). With God as their helper, the reader will discover a new way of thinking and a better way of living. A new person will begin to emerge.We can tame each thought, friends.

Story Of God And Us
Original price was: $19.99.$13.97Current price is: $13.97.Pastor and author Jonathan Murphy provides readers with a framework–a master plot–to the story of all history. This deep exploration of Scripture reveals that God is in complete command of this universe and how He guides everyone’s story: past, present, and future.
Good stories make you laugh, cry, fear, dream, hope. They engage our hearts, entertain our minds, and enlighten our souls. God wrote a story–the best story ever!–full of drama, adventure, love, sacrifice, redemption, and has an ending that seems too good to be true. And the greatest thing about God’s story is that we are all part of it. His story provides the meaning of life that brings fulfillment of our desires and purpose for our existence.?
The Story of God and Us shows not only what God is doing from creation to eternity, but how everything makes sense as you read the Bible from the beginning of Genesis to the end of Revelation. World history is not made up of random people and events but of divine appointment and purpose. In this book, Jonathan Murphy leads readers to understand how:
*the meaning of life is essential to a fulfilling relationship and partnership with God;
*God accomplishes His plans in a pleasing and connecting way;
*a multidimensional view of Scripture can engage and delight even the most disinterested and distracted; and
*seeing the big picture can provide a fresh look at how our story clearly fits into God’s.
As Jonathan retells God’s story through a fresh lens, Christians will better understand how much God loves them, how He desires us to live with Him and for Him, and why we should invite others into this amazing story every chance that we get!

You Have A Calling
$21.99What if your vocation doesn’t align with your passion?
Some people are lucky enough to get paid to do what they love. But many are not.
In You Have a Calling, award-winning author Karen Swallow Prior has encouraging news: If you pursue the good, true, and beautiful in all your work, you will find your greatest fulfillment. In this book, you’ll discover:
– how knowing the crucial difference between passion and calling transforms how you view work;
– how to finding meaning in every role, regardless of your career; and
– how everyday work reflects the image of God through truth, goodness, and beauty.
In an age when passion and calling are often confused, Prior helps you understand that passions come from within, while your calling, or vocation, comes from without and is about being called by others to serve. That crucial distinction can help you understand how God can use both your passions and our work, even if for different purposes.
This book will appeal to everyone who wants to know that their daily work, ordinary though it may be, can fulfill a higher calling to God. You will gain a renewed sense of purpose, knowing you are created for virtue in all you do because you are created in the image of God.

Grace Beyond Salvation
$15.99Everything is rooted and grounded in the grace of God.
From the first verse in the Bible to the very last, there’s a thread that holds humanity’s story together–that thread is grace. In Grace Beyond Salvation, pastor and teacher Dr. Kyle DiRoberts invites readers to understand and experience the biblical story of God’s extraordinary grace. This story is the key to understanding and fully living our own stories.
Kyle believes that we cannot navigate this life, striving to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, without understanding the design and purpose of God’s grace. But what is grace? It’s likely so much more than you might think.
This book is for all who don’t fully understand the grace of God and the freedom it gives us. It’s for anyone living with shame and guilt, constantly reminded of past mistakes. It’s for those who believe in God but struggle with the evil in this world and how God’s grace fits into the picture. It’s for hurting people–both believers and seekers–who’ve believed lies because they don’t understand God’s design for grace and its purpose in their lives.
The grand story of grace is full of drama, pain, and suffering, but also, hope, expectation, and pursuit. Grasping and absorbing His grace is the secret to living an intimate, confident relationship with God and others.

Courage To Be Imperfect
$18.99It’s time to stop trying to perfect your life and start enjoying it:
-reframe your overachiever mindset
-release yourself from overwhelming expectations
-build confidence and courage to embrace an imperfect lifeImagine a life where you’re not afraid to make a mistake. A life where you don’t link your worth to what you’ve achieved, you don’t feel like you’re drowning, and you never hear that voice in your head telling you you’re not good enough.
No one gets more advice thrust upon them than women. Overwhelmed with information, opinions, and expectations, we are weighed down with guilt, exhaustion, and the belief that we aren’t good enough . . . yet. So we keep trying to fix stuff–our bodies, our parenting, our homes. But fixing things isn’t the answer. What we need is a paradigm shift, one where we stop trying to get our act together and start living boldly imperfect lives.
Sharing her own story of faltering under the crushing expectations of the world when she found herself pregnant at age sixteen, Elizabeth Danks Robbins turns the very idea of “perfect” on its head. Instead, she shows you how to stop fearing the opinions and criticism of others in favor of creating a life you actually enjoy. You’ll learn to:
-reframe your mindset
-embrace who you are now
-trade perfection for peaceRelease yourself from the pressure to prove yourself to the world. Because, as it turns out, you’re not a perfect woman. You’re a real one.

Remember Death : The Surprising Path To Living Hope
$19.99The Best Way to Find Meaning in Life Is to Get Honest About Death
Life expectancy worldwide is twice what it was a hundred years ago. And because of modern medicine, many of us don’t often see death up close. That makes it easy to live as if death is someone else’s problem. Ignoring the certainty of death doesn’t protect us from feeling its effects throughout the lives we’re living now–but it does hold us back from experiencing the powerful, everyday relevance of Jesus’s promises to us. So long as death remains remote and unreal, Jesus’s promises will too. But honesty about death brings hope to life. That’s the ironic claim at the heart of this book. Cultivating death awareness helps us bring the promises of Jesus from the hazy clouds of some other world into the everyday realities of our world, where they belong.
*Insightful and Accessible: Draws from many sources, including research from science and psychology, and examples from literature, pop culture, theology, and Scripture
*Christ-Centered Encouragement for Life and Loss: Teaching what the Bible says about identity, futility, and grief, McCullough offers hope that is tied to the promises of God

Cradle My Heart (Revised)
$20.99A timely revised and updated resource on abortion recovery

I Choose Joy
$16.99Joy–our lifeline and strength through life’s suffering.
C.S. Lewis said, “Joy is the serious business of Heaven.” Too often, however, joy is missing from our lives. When we look to Scripture, we see examples of early Christians thriving even amid hardship and persecution. How do we recapture that deep and stubborn joy?
Pastor and author Chip Ingram takes us to God’s Word, helping us shift away from self-centered happiness and toward lasting joy found in God’s goodness.
“Choosing joy in the midst of difficulties goes against all our instincts. When you look at life through the lens of your circumstances, what happens? You’re happy when circumstances are good and sad or angry when they aren’t, right? But if you look at your circumstances through the lens of God’s goodness–his power and promises–that’s a higher perspective. You can experience joy because you know a good God is going to take even the worst and most difficult things in life and use them for your good. Living above our circumstances occurs when our perspective interprets our circumstances rather than our circumstances determining our perspective.”
You cannot choose your life’s circumstances, but you can choose how to respond. Join esteemed Bible teacher, Chip Ingram, on this journey to restore the essential Christian virtue of JOY!
