S-Where-has-Integrity-Gone-New Where Has Integrity Gone - Revised Ed.
$3.99

Simon Schrock. Integrity is the one thing generally lacking today in government leaders, business executives, and sometimes even in church pastors. In fact, it is often lacking in many children, parents, and workers. Yet, it isn’t too late for Christians to still make a difference in the area of integrity. This work will encourage you and strengthen your conviction to continue to “denounce the hidden things of dishonesty.”

Roger Hertzler. Jesus told us, “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Many Christians who take Jesus’ commandments very seriously on nonresistance and divorce shrug off His teachings on laying up treasures on earth. In this challenging book, Hertzler challenges all of us to take Jesus’ teachings on wealth seriously.

S-Dont-Throw-in-Towel.jpg Don't Throw in the Towel
$3.95
Simon Schrock. D. L. Moody once said, “I never knew God to use a discouraged person.” Yet, virtually all Christians face discouragement at various times. And when discouragement sets in, it does affect our walk with God and our ability to minister to others effectively. The message of this book is: If you’re feeling discouraged, don’t throw in the towel. Although Satan is out to ruin and discourage you, God has something better in mind for you. This book was written both to give you encouragement and to supply you with principles to defeat discouragement when it comes.

Peter wrote, “Do not let your adornment be outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on apparel—rather let it be the hidden person of the heart.” But just how literally did the early Christians take that apostolic commandment?

S-Separation-from-World.jpg CD: Separation from the World
$4.95

What the Early Christians Believed About Separation from the World. D. Bercot. The Bible exhorts us: “Adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.” So unless we want to be an enemy of God, we need to live a life of separation from the world. This is how Christians lived when the church was still young.

In this message, Bercot pinpoints five areas where the early Christians lived differently from the world around them:

● Material riches and job employment
● Entertainment
● Participation in government
● Modesty and dress
● Purity and marital fidelity
