Gods Rock And Roll Army
$24.99
“I will never forget that day!” The true story of a radical experiment in evangelism by those who lived it.
Between 1968 and 1991, over 10 million teenage students across the United States and Canada had a shared experience: one day they were called from class to their gymnasium, where they screamed their way through a rock and roll show the likes of which most had never seen. Students saw young men with rock star personas, iconic clothes, and wild hair, whose musical talent was only exceeded by their extreme showmanship. In fact, you may still have a Free Fare, The Edge, or Freedom Jam poster rolled up in your closet.
Thousands of students each month came back for an evening show, and it was there, in the final few minutes of the night, that the illusion of “sex, drugs, and rock and roll” so prevalent in that era was broken. Then, as hard-core rockers testified about their life in Jesus, roughly a million young lives across 23 years were changed.
Along the way, something else happened. Every year, dozens of young people joined in this radical experiment in evangelism. Within each one of them, a transformation occurred, and an indelible bond formed. This is the story of God’s Rock and Roll Army, the jaw-dropping and miraculous events they experienced, and the lessons they learned.
From their accounts, you will find the key to building strong faith leaders, and you may find the courage for your own radical experiment in evangelism.

God Story
$17.99What is my purpose? Where is my place? What is the point?
Within a culture of confusion, we need something to anchor ourselves in – or rather, someone. The God Story invites you to find yourself and your purpose within God’s overarching and awe-inspiring plans for humanity.
Faithfully unfolding the narrative of Scripture in a chronological yet poetic way, The God Story welcomes you to immerse yourself in the sacred themes of scripture – from work and rest, to sexuality and justice – whilst reinforcing the truth we can build our lives on: that God is love.
Exploring three common threads that permeate the pages of the Bible – the presence paradigm, the family paradigm, and the Kingdom paradigm – The God Story pulls us into a deeper knowledge of God, encouraging prayer, reflection and worship.
It is time to be enchanted afresh by the story of Scripture and in doing so to find personal fulfilment, transformation, and the inspiration to make a difference in today’s world.

$14.99‘Abraham believed God, and God counted him as righteous because of his faith. He was even called the friend of God.’ (James 2.23)
Abraham is the only character in the Bible to be described in that way, and John C. Lennox shows us why.

This study guide to Friend of God is packed with thought-provoking suggestions for private reflection or group discussion, drawing out the many ways in which the story of Abraham can teach us how to live faithfully in a world of religious doubt and scepticism today.

And Yet : Finding Joy In Lament
$12.00In a life full of highs and lows, choice and challenges, the words ‘and yet’ can change everything. We are surrounded by darkness and yet there is light. We feel we are lacking and yet God provides. We are broken and bruised and yet there is hope.
In the depths of depression and plagued with suicidal thoughts, Rachael Newham never thought she’d find herself writing a book on joy. And yet, if her journey with mental health illness has taught her anything it is that true, deep, lasting joy can only be experienced when we allow ourselves to enter into lament and be honest about our pain before God.
With warm understanding, in this lovely Lent book for 2022 Rachael traces how Biblical writers used ‘and yet’ to bring together joy and lament and invites us to see them not as opposites, but two sides of the same coin. Drawing on her experiences with mental illness, she shows us how we can build a rhythm of both joy and lament into our lives both through the season of Lent and the rest of the church’s year.With forty reflections split over six sections And Yet is the perfect daily Lent devotional for 2022, but its undated readings can be used for periods of prayerful reflection throughout the year. This is a beautiful Christian book on lament ideal for anyone looking for to better understand how the tradition of lament and joy work together, and how they can make them a part of their everyday spiritual formation.
We may be living in dark circumstances – and yet with a few simple practices we can experience joy in every season.
