To the Mountain
by Phyllis BarberWritten by an award-winning writer, this spiritual memoir is distinguished by the author's Mormonism and literary prose. In a series of thought-provoking, personal essays, Phyllis Barber provides an engaging account of how she left her original Mormon faith and eventually returned to it decades later. Her journey begins in the 1990s. In search of spiritual healing and a deeper understanding of the divine, she travels widely and participates with people of many different persuasions, including Southern Baptists; Tibetan Buddhist monks in Tibet and North India; shamans in Peru and Ecuador; goddess worshipers in the Yucatan; and members of mega-church congregations, an Islamic society, and Gurdjieff study groups. Her 20-year hiatus from Mormonism transforms her in powerful ways. A much different human being when she decides to return to her original religion, her clarity and unflinching honesty will encourage others to continue with their own personal odysseys.
To the Neck and Rising
by Richard WhiteIn life there are times when we are overwhelmed by what is happening around and within us. It is like being caught in floodwaters with no way out. King David describes his life this way in Psalm 69. To the neck and rising explores his thoughts, feelings, emotions and attitudes throughout the Psalm. The journey that David takes is not dissimilar to ours and can provide us with valuable personal insights. Choices we make while in the place of the floodwaters determine whether we remain in that place of emotional turmoil or we begin to make steps towards recovery.

Tobit's Dog
by Michael Nicholas RichardDespite the ever-present oppression of the Jim Crow South around him, Tobit Messager had become a prosperous and well-respected man. Then one day forces beyond his control start a cascade of misfortune that leaves him blind and nearly destitute. It is then that an affable traveling musician, who calls himself Ace Redbone, shows up on his doorstep claiming to be a distant relative. In an effort to alleviate his family's dire situation, Tobit allows his son, Tobias, to accompany Ace Redbone on a quest to collect a long overdue debt. Together, Ace, Tobias, and a most peculiar dog named Okra set off on a journey that will lead to unexpected consequences. Currents of grace begin rippling through not only Tobit's family but his entire community as hidden crimes are revealed and justice, which had almost been despaired of, is served. This retelling of the biblical story of Tobit, set in North Carolina during the Depression, brings to life in surprising ways the beloved Old Testament characters, including the important but often overlooked family dog.
Todas las cosas nuevas: El cielo, la tierra y la restauración de todo lo que ama
by John EldredgeEl autor best seller del New York Times John Eldredge ofrece a los lectores una nueva e impresionante perspectiva de la promesa de Dios de un nuevo cielo y una nueva tierra.¿CUÁL SERÁ L A GRAN ESPERANZA QUE SOSTIENE SU VIDA?Este libro revolucionario acerca de nuestro futuro se basa en la sencilla idea de que, según la Biblia, el cielo no es nuestro hogar eterno, sino la tierra nueva. Tal como Jesús afirma en el Evangelio de Mateo, el próximo capítulo de nuestra historia comienza con «la renovación de todas las cosas», refiriéndose a la tierra que amamos en toda su belleza, nuestro propio ser y las cosas que enriquecen la vida: la música, el arte, la comida, las risas y todo lo que atesoramos. Todo ha de ser renovado «cuando la tierra sea hecha nueva».La manera en que imagina su futuro determina su experiencia actual más que cualquier otra cosa. Si estuviera seguro que Dios restaurará, en cualquier momento, su vida y todo lo que disfruta; si estuviera seguro que recibirá una bendición grande y gloriosa, no en el cielo sino aquí en esta tierra, tendría una esperanza que le ayudaría a enfrentar cualquier circunstancia, una certeza en el alma, «la cual tenemos como segura y firme ancla del alma, y que penetra hasta dentro del velo» (Hebreos 6.19).La mayoría de los cristianos no esperan el futuro con ansias porque sus ideas acerca del cielo son confusas, religiosas y, francamente, aburridas. La esperanza surge cuando comprendemos que para el creyente nada está perdido. El cielo no es una vida en las nubes; no consiste en canciones de adoración perpetuas. Más bien, la vida que anhelamos, el paraíso que Adán y Eva conocieron, es precisamente la vida que está preparada para nosotros.Y ESA VIDA VIENE PRONTO.

Today When You Hear His Voice: Scripture, the Covenants, and the People of God
by Gregory W. LeePresents a doctrine of Scripture based on Hebrews in dialogue with Augustine and Calvin What vision of biblical authority arises from Scripture’s own use of Scripture? This question has received surprisingly little attention from theologians seeking to develop a comprehensive doctrine of Scripture. Today When You Hear His Voice by Gregory W. Lee fills this gap by listening carefully to the Epistle to the Hebrews. Lee illuminates the unique way that Hebrews appropriates Old Testament texts as he considers the theological relationship between salvation history and scriptural interpretation. He illustrates these dynamics through extended treatments of Augustine and Calvin, whose contrasting perspectives on the covenants, Israel, and the literal and figural senses provide theological categories for appreciating how Hebrews innovatively presents Scripture as God’s direct address in the contemporary moment.

Todo lo que necesitas (Everything You Need, Spanish Edition): 8 pasos esenciales para una vida confiada en las promesas de Dios
by Dr David JeremiahMuchos cristianos se sienten poco preparados e inciertos cuando se trata de vivir cada día como seguidores de Cristo. A menudo sabemos lo que se supone que debemos hacer, e incluso por qué se supone que debemos hacerlo. Sin embargo, cuando nos falta confianza en nosotros mismos y en nuestro desarrollo espiritual, no podemos vivir audazmente para marcar la diferencia en nuestro mundo.Como uno de los principales maestros bíblicos del mundo, el Dr. David Jeremiah quiere que los lectores sepan que esta falta de confianza es innecesaria e inútil. De hecho, la Biblia deja claro que, de la misma manera que los excursionistas hábiles empacan todos los suministros necesarios antes de un viaje, Dios mismo equipa a todos los creyentes con todo lo que necesitan para caminar y trabajar con confianza como miembros de su reino.Todo lo que necesita continúa con el enfoque del Dr. Jeremiah de ayudar a la iglesia a luchar por la victoria espiritual a través de Cristo. Utilizando su profundidad, sabiduría y compasión distintivas, el Dr. Jeremiah explora 2 Pedro 1: 5–10 para resaltar siete herramientas críticas que Dios proporciona a cada uno: virtud, conocimiento, dominio propio, perseverancia, piedad, bondad fraternal y amor. Cuando usamos el equipo que Dios proporciona, podemos vivir con confianza sabiendo que nunca tropezaremos.
