    She’s Got Issues – Save $13

    She's Got IssuesShe’s Got Issues by Nicole Unice

    We’ve all got our issues! Maybe you feel like life just isn’t going your way, or you’re afraid that you don’t measure up to other people’s expectations. Perhaps you have a hard time managing your temper or have someone in your life you just can’t forgive. We deal with our “issues” every day in one form or another; the problem is, after a while, they start to feel… normal. Unchanging. Just part of who we are. And we forget that we have access to the power of Christ – a power that can transform our everyday weaknesses into our greatest strengths and gifts.

    In She’s Got Issues, Christian counselor, ministry leader, and regular mom Nicole Unice explores the ordinary issues that are keeping you from the full and free life you were meant to have. Applying years of counseling with practical scriptural teaching and a fresh and authentic voice, Nicole shows you how to let God freely shape your character – and transform your life from ordinary to abundant.

    Love in the House – Save $11

    Love in the HouseLove in the House by Chris Jeub, Wendy Jeub

    When the TLC camera crew ventured into the Jeub home for nearly two weeks of filming, they were forced to explain why they chose to have so many children, how they manage our household, and what they do that seems to create so much love in the house. TLC captured over 50 hours of footage but cut it down to a mere 44 minutes. Needless to say, most of what the Jeubs shared ended up on the editing floor. Numerous questions for their family hung in the air after the debut of the “Kids by the Dozen” episode:

    • How do they keep their grocery bill below $600/month?
    • What other creative ideas besides the Birthday Bash do they do?
    • What ever became of their estranged relationship with their oldest daughter?
    • Wendy looks like she’s a teenager. What keeps her looking so good after 13 (in 2007) kids?

    Families of all sizes will appreciate the Jeubs’ creative solutions to raising children and managing a home. More importantly, Chris and Wendy honestly tell their life story – trials and blessings alike – that will inspire its readers to a renewed vision for family life.

    Eat with Joy: Redeeming God’s Gift of Food – Save $13

    Eat with Joy: Redeeming God's Gift of FoodEat with Joy: Redeeming God’s Gift of Food by Norman Wirzba

    Food is the source of endless angst and anxiety. We struggle with obesity and eating disorders. Reports of agricultural horror stories give us worries about whether our food is healthy, nutritious or justly produced. It’s hard to know if our food is really good for us or for society. Our relationship with food is complicated to say the least.

    But God intended for us to delight in our food. Rachel Stone calls us to rediscover joyful eating by receiving food as God’s good gift of provision and care for us. She shows us how God intends for us to relate to him and each other through food, and how our meals can become expressions of generosity, community and love of neighbor. Eating together can bring healing to those with eating disorders, and we can make wise choices for sustainable agriculture. Ultimately, redemptive eating is a sacramental act of culture making through which we gratefully herald the feast of the kingdom of God.

    Filled with practical insights and some tasty recipes, this book provides a Christian journey into the delight of eating. Come to the table, partake of the Bread of Life – and eat with joy.
