8th Day Prayers Daily Joy For Ordinary Time
$25.00
An Invitation to Reflect and Pray During Ordinary Time
The season between Pentecost and Advent, known as Ordinary Time, invites us to live as Christians in the here and now. But as this beautiful book reminds us, living in the here and now is anything but “ordinary” because of what Jesus did for us on the cross. His death and resurrection inaugurated a new life, one which is empowered by the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Eighth Day Prayers: Daily Joy for Ordinary Time calls us to be faithful disciples in this transformative season as we grow in our faith, speak of Jesus’s love to the world, and devote ourselves to caring for one another in the church. This gentle yet powerful guide encourages us to pray words directly from Scripture. Each entry features:
*a Scripture passage to usher you into God’s Word
*a brief reflection to take you deeper into the biblical text
*a Scripture-soaked prayer to conclude your quiet time and refocus your day
*and a calendar at the top of each page to help you find your place
We are all living in the eighth day: The day of Jesus’s resurrection. The day of new creation. The day in which the kingdom of God is “already here and not yet fulfilled.” Eighth Day Prayers invites us to draw closer to him individually and as a body of believers as we reflect on his presence with us.

Flying Falling Catching
$25.99Henri Nouwen’s never-before-published story of his surprising friendship with a traveling trapeze troupe.
During the last five years of his life, best-selling spiritual author Henri J. M. Nouwen became close to The Flying Rodleighs, a trapeze troupe in a traveling circus. Like Nouwen’s own life, a trapeze act is full of artistry, exhilarating successes, crushing failures and continual forgiveness. He wrote about his experience in a genre new to him: creative non-fiction.
In Flying, Falling, Catching, Nouwen’s colleague and friend Carolyn Whitney-Brown presents his unpublished trapeze writings framed by the true story of his rescue through a hotel window by paramedics during his first heart attack. Readers will meet Nouwen as a spiritual risk taker who was transformed through his engagement with these trapeze artists, as well as his participation in the Civil Rights movement, his life in community with people with intellectual disabilities, his personal growth through friendships during the 1990s AIDS pandemic, and other unexpected encounters.
What will we do with our lives, and with whom will we do it? In this story of flying and catching, Nouwen invites us all to let go and fly, even when we are afraid of falling.

Divine Conspiracy Continued
$14.99In this sequel to his spiritual classic The Divine Conspiracy, the late Dallas Willard, along with theologian Gary Black Jr., fulfills his revolutionary vision of how the kingdom of God is made real on earth
In The Divine Conspiracy, Dallas Willard critiqued the church’s obsessive focus on “sin management” and revolutionized how we understand Christian discipleship, revealing what it meant to “apprentice ourselves” to Jesus to truly fulfill his message that the “kingdom of God has come.”
In The Divine Conspiracy Continued, the last book he was actively working on before his death, Willard along with theologian Gary Black Jr., lays out the next stage in God’s plan for a new generation of disciples, including pastors and lay leaders, who can transform the world from the inside out. God does not call Christians to protect themselves from the world, Willard reminds us; he calls them to embrace it, to lead and serve.
Throughout his life, Willard was the teacher other leaders looked to for guidance and understanding. This remarkable volume continues his ground-breaking message, and is sure to become a cherished fount of wisdom and a new blueprint for how God’s revolution can continue into the twenty-first century.
