Stop Dating The Church |
Putting in their hour or two on the weekend, many Christians take the rest of the week off, neglecting the church and her needs. It's not a serious relationship. Some shop around, looking for a church that suits their lifestyle. It's dating, with no assurances, no obligations. Bestselling author Joshua Harris calls Christians to stop playing the field and commit, just as Christ is committed to us, His bride. In his new book, Harris explores the ramifications of Ephesians 5:25-32, which proclaims the intensity and the breadth of Jesus Christ's love for His church. God has designed us to build our lives around a local church; we cannot be indifferent or uninvolved. Rather, we must be in love with and committed to God's plan and purpose through the church. Are you dating the church, or are you committed?

The teenagers Book of Manners - PLEASE |
This book is great. I used it to teach a manners course for 7th and 8th graders along with their Bible class. I will use it again this semester and hope to have the book available for each student next year. The students loved the book. I used my own
transparencies to teach from the book. They had fun and always wanted to know on Thursday or Friday if we would start with manners. Those 2 days were manners days. The book was interesting to them and I used my own thoughts and teaching approach to reach the students. They practiced what they learned from introductions,telephone manners, table, dating, car, classroom and probably the most fun and importance to them was the emphasis I put into Personal Manners and Personal Values.
I had two hairdressers come in to talk about personal care. Two students were picked by a drawing for a makeover. Also, another student went to a very formal dinner and told his mother he knew from "manners class" exactly what to do with the utensils on the table. Fred Hartley is to be commended for writing such a humorous approach to manners for teens. It absolutely fit exactly what I was looking for when I found it. It is also based on Scripture which makes it all the more important to me and to reach students that I teach.

Why Wait? |
I read Why Wait? as a teen and it really helped me to see the reasons why teens have sex, reasons to wait and what was likely to happen to you down the road if you didn't wait until marriage. The thing I liked most about this book is that is shows you why young people are having sex. Many books will just talk about why to have sex or why you shouldn't. This book really explores the issue and gives a lot of good facts to back up the different points that are made in the book. Well worth taking the time to read no matter how old you are or what your feelings are on the subject.

How To - Get Into The bible |
In today's media-driven culture, how do you introduce the Bible to people who are used to movies, comic books, and USA Today? You give them How to Get Into the Bible, a fast-paced, action-packed look at the main characters, events, and meanings of the Old and New Testament.
Using with the reader-friendly Contemporary English Version, this book makes it even easier for adults who are unfamiliar with the Bible to get into the Scriptures.

Men of Science - Men of God |
This is a great book for those interested in scientists who believed in God. While no part of this book is in depth it is a good starting point for children doing research or who want more of a compilation of scientists and their contributions. Overall I think this book is a very effective book for the younger generation or for someone who just wants to read some quick facts about Christian scientists.

| Peretti, Frank |
the Wounded Spirit |
The man who has thrilled Christian readers with novels such as This Present Darkness and The Visitation here describes the childhood trauma that first introduced him to the dark side. Peretti was born with cystic hygroma, which at birth manifested itself as a small lump on his neck. In two months, the lump was baseball-size, and Peretti was enduring the first of seven early surgeries. During childhood, his tongue was so swollen that it lolled out of his mouth, preventing normal speech development. Classmates were repulsed by his tongue and by the bloody trickle constantly dribbling from his mouth. They tormented him about his grotesque appearance, small size and inability to form words normally. Peretti's response was to retreat to his room, where he wrote stories and played with monsters like toy Frankensteins and hunchbacks, who he felt were also misunderstood and abused. Peretti writes here that he survived this difficult period because of the unwavering love and acceptance of his family, and because he had deep faith in the equality of all people in Christ. He expresses grave concern about other "wounded spirits," particularly young people who may eventually snap after withstanding years of bullying by their peers. The book is full of painful stories, but also memorable moments of hope, as Peretti recounts instances when a peer or a teacher stood up for him. This remarkable memoir will inspire readers to undertake similar acts of courageous compassion. (Nov.)

No More victims |
It happens every day. People are deeply wounded by the words and actions of those around them. And it affects them for the rest of their lives. We've all been there - we've all been wounded and we've all wounded others. But it's time to become "wounded healers," loving and protecting the people around us. The Wounded Spirit has become more than a book. The message has connected with thousands and has become a national movement. This 64-page call to action, entitled No More Victims, is designed as a giveaway to students for them to join in the fight against bullying.

Don't Date Naked |
Young people are constantly being bombarded with the wrong ideas and expectations when it comes to dating.

Their experiences and interaction with today's youth give them incredible insights into how young people think and why they do what they do. This new book will speak to today's young adults where they're at and help them deal with dating and all it means.

Almighty Over All |
"Theologian R. C. Sproul Jr. is well equipped to write about the great issues. These he faces squarely with sure-footed confidence in a truly scriptural fashion. You may not always like what he says (though youll like the way he says it) but you certainly will be forced to think. And I challenge you to try to refute his teaching! A book for those who are tired of reading superficial material."

Jesus Freaks |
Jesus Freaks by dc Talk and The Voice of the Martyrs, is a companion volume to dc Talk's album of the same name. It is a book for teenagers about martyrdom, containing dozens of profiles of figures ranging from Stephen, whose martyrdom is described in the Book of Acts, to "Anila and Perveen," two teenage Pakistani girls and Christian believers. In 1997, Perveen was killed for running away in order to avoid marrying a Muslim man; Anila was imprisoned for helping her friend escape. In an introduction to the book, Michael Tait explains its purpose: "In a world built on free will instead of God's will, we must be the Freaks. While we may not be called to martyr our lives, we must martyr our way of life. We must put our selfish ways to death and march to a different beat. Then the world will see Jesus." The book's design is hip and easy to read, and its summary of Christian persecutions that continue today is useful--and frightening.
