DOWNLOAD EBOOK →“An instant classic. . . . A pure joy to read.” —Washington Post Book World Both a heart-racing adventure and an uplifting quest, Walking the Bible presents one man’s epic journey- by foot, jeep, rowboat, and camel- through the greatest stories ever told. From crossing the Red Sea to climbing Mount Sinai to touching the burning bush, Bruce Feiler’s inspiring odyssey will forever change your view of history’s most legendary events. The stories in the first five books of the Bible, also known as the Torah, come alive as Feiler searches across three continents for the stories and heroes shared by Christians and Jews. You’ll visit the slopes of Mount Ararat, where Noah’s ark landed, trek to the desert outpost where Abraham first heard the words of God, and scale the summit where Moses received the Ten Commandments. Using the latest archeological research, Feiler explores how physical location affects the larger narrative of the Bible and ultimately realizes how much these places, as well as his experience, have affected his faith. A once-in-a-lifetime journey, Walking the Bible offers new insights into the roots of our common faith and uncovers fresh answers to the most profound questions of the human spirit. “Smart and savvy, insightful and illuminating.” —Los Angeles Times “An exciting, well-told story informed by Feiler’s boundless intellectual curiosity . . . [and] sense of adventure.” —Miami Herald

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →What if the key to changing your life--and yourself--is already in your hand? So many women struggle with what to do with their daily lives. They feel trapped in everyday drudgery and disappointment, in dull domestic duties, and in mundane jobs they despise. Where is the abundant, purposeful life they were promised? Kari Patterson shows readers the truth: in each unremarkable life lies an opportunity to see, know, love, and be utterly transformed by a God who meets everyone right where they are. Instead of stepping away from real life to find God, Patterson equips women with a six-step practice to move further in and meet Him in the humdrum moments of everyday existence. And when a woman's inner being is truly changed by the sacred, everything in her world changes too--right down to tackling the dirty dishes. Through entertaining narrative, candid real-life stories, Bible study, and practical instruction, Sacred Mundane guides individuals or small groups to discover the beautiful sacredness in the lives they already lead. Women who long to grow in God and make a real difference in the world--no matter how small--will reach eagerly for this book and the radical transformation it offers. "Our daily routine, with its mundane tasks and mindless repetition, is ultimately an offering of worship to God. What a great truth from a great God!" --Ann Byle, author of The Making of a Christian Bestseller and coauthor of Devotions for the Soul Surfer

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The last forty years have seen transitions in mainline churches that feel, for many, like a journey into the wilderness. Yet God is calling us in this moment, not to grieve over the changes we have experienced but to hear the call to a new mission, and a new faithfulness. In Journey in the Wilderness, Gil Rendle draws on decades as a pastor and church consultant to point a way into a hopeful future. The key to embracing the wilderness is to learn new skills in leading change, to reach beyond a position of privilege and power to become churches that serve God’s hurting people.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Bible tells us in Hosea 4:6 that God's people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge. Like the people in Hosea's day, I too was lost in a vast wilderness because I didn't have the slightest clue how to find my way out of that wilderness. I really thought, like many people, that it was too late. I'd messed up so many God-given opportunities and remained in a state of muddled confusion because I didn't know the truth, the way, and the life, that is Christ. I had been "born again," but I didn't know what it meant to live and walk in the Spirit. I didn't know the powerful truth of God's word. I didn't trust the Bible, and I didn't obey it because I didn't believe it with all of my heart. I did things the only way I knew how: my way. And that lead from one miserable failure to the next. Until the Spirit of God opened my blind eyes and penetrated my unbelieving heart, I was without hope. Only God can and will change us when if and when we trust, believe, and obey him. I'm here to tell you that change is possible, but only through Christ. It is never too late. I know what it is to live a hopeless life. I lived it for forty long years, and when I just knew it was too late, God knew what was about to happen. I had no idea. During some of the worst circumstances in my life, God stepped in and everything changed because he changed what I could not. He changed my heart. You and I need changed hearts, and God is the only one who can do that.
