EVERYTHING MUST CHANGE
by Brian McLeod
............$10.00

GLOBAL WARMING, FINANCIAL CRISIS, WORLDWIDE TERRORISM
What do the life and teaching of Jesus have to say about the most critical global problems in our world today?
Acclaimed author and church leader Brian McLaren states, "More and more Christian leaders are beginning to realize that for the millions of young adults who have recently dropped out of church, Christianity is a failed religion. Why? Because it has specialized in dealing with 'spiritual needs' to the exclusion of physical and social needs. It has focused on 'me' and 'my eternal destiny,' but it has failed to address the dominant societal and global realities of their lifetime: systemic injustice, poverty, and dysfunction."
McLaren asks, "Shouldn't a message purporting to be the best news in the world be doing better than this?" What he sets forth in this provocative, unsettling work is a "form of Christian faith that is holistic, integral, balanced, that offers good news for both the living and the dying, that speaks of God's grace at work both in this life and the life to come, both to individuals and to societies and the planet as a whole."

CASTING CROWNS' latest release, UNTIL THE WHOLE WORLD HEARS ................$18.95
An offering of encouragement, challenge, hope and truth to a world in need of Jesus.
Mark Hall, lead singer and songwriter states
"Our main purpose, above all else, is to know Him more. As we travel through our journey as Christians, we come to a realization there are lots of people out there who need to hear about Jesus. Through our maturity, we begin to see the world as God sees the world and work with purpose to show people Jesus, until the whole world hears."

YOU WERE BORN FOR THIS
by Bruce Wilkinson.................$18.95
Anyone can do a good deed, but some good works can only happen by an act of God. Around the world these acts are called miracles - not that even religious people expect to see one any time soon. But what would happen if millions of ordinary people walked out each morning expecting God to deliver a miracle through them to a person in need? You Were Born for This starts with the dramatic premise that everyone at all times is in need of a miracle, and that God is ready to meet those needs supernaturally through ordinary people who are willing to learn the "protocol of heaven."
In the straightforward, story-driven, highly motivating style for which he is known, Wilkinson describes how anyone can be a 'Delivery Guy' from heaven in such universally significant arenas of life as finances, practical help, relationships, purpose and spiritual growth.
