Nancy Guthrie Presents a Theologically Rich and Comprehensive Guide through the Book of Acts
The book of Acts is set within the larger story of the outworking of God’s plan to save for himself a people from every nation-the story that runs from Genesis to Revelation.

Is God Really Good
$14.99Bill Johnson helps answer some of your most controversial and challenging questions about the goodness of God!
The goodness of God is a really big deal. What you believe about His goodness will impact every area of your life. How you think, respond to crisis, pray, relate with God. Even how you relate God to others.
To build your life on the solid foundation of God’s goodness you must be willing to ask the tough questions.
In Is God Really Good?, Pastor Bill Johnson draws from over 40 years of ministry leadership and experience with God to Biblically help answer some of your most frequently asked questions about God’s goodness. These include:
*Is God really in control of everything?
*Does God cause everything, or are there other factors influencing circumstances?
*Is the God in the Old Testament the same as the God in the New Testament?
*If God is good, and wants to heal people and perform miracles, why do people still get sick and die?
*Is God always in a “Good mood?”While one book cannot answer every question about God’s goodness, it’s possible for the truth contained in these pages to help you answer the most important question.
Is God really good?
Yes He is!

Anxious For Nothing
$14.99Anxiety is at an all time high, but there’s a prescription for dealing with it. Max Lucado invites readers into a study of Philippians 4:6-7 where the Apostle Paul admonishes the followers of Christ, “Do not be anxious about anything . . .”
Philippians 4:6 encourages the believer to “be anxious for nothing.” As Lucado states, the apostle Paul seems to leave little leeway here. “Be anxious for nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zero.”
What’s he suggesting? That we should literally be anxious for absolutely nothing? Lucado says, “The presence of anxiety is unavoidable, but the prison of anxiety is optional. It’s the life of perpetual anxiety that Paul wants to address. Don’t let anything in life leave you perpetually in angst.”
Americans especially know about living in perpetual anxiety. According to one research program, anxiety-related issues are the number one mental health problem among women and are second only to alcohol and drug abuse among men. Stress-related ailments cost the nation $300 billion every year in medical bills and lost productivity. And use of sedative drugs like Xanax and Valium have skyrocketed in the last 15 years. Even students are feeling it. One psychologist reports that the average high school kid today has the same level of anxiety as the average psychiatric patient in the early 1950s.
“The news about our anxiety is enough to make us anxious,” says Lucado. But there’s a prescription for dealing with it. Lucado invites readers into a study of Philippians 4:6-7, the most highlighted passage of any book on the planet, according to Amazon:
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
“With His help you will learn to face the calamities of life. You’ll learn how to talk yourself off the ledge. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, you will learn to view bad news through the lens of sovereignty; to discern the lies of Satan and tell yourself the truth. You will manifest a gentleness that is evident to others. Anxiety comes with life. But it doesn’t have to dominate your life.”
