$7.00Does God need your money? What is a tithe? Should you tithe from your net or your gross? Why give to the church? How can you know which organizations to support? Although it is better to give than to receive, giving is harder for most people. However, there are people who need financial help, and it should come from the body of Christ - through the church. So, giving is not only good stewardship; it enables the church to help those in need. Respected Christian financial expert Larry Burkett uses God's Word to show the strong biblical basis for giving to and serving in the church. Using benevolence ministries as an example, Burkett explains how God uses Christians to minister in His name. This is accomplished by giving back to God a portion of what He has graciously given.

$14.00Learning To Distinguish Between Truths, Half-Truths And Lies Our task is to make wise judgments in a nonjudgmental world! We as Christ's representatives have bought into the world's values and its insistence that individuals should never challenge the private beliefs of others, whether outside the church or in it. Many believe that we have no right to judge anyone's lifestyle or beliefs. We have lost the ability to judge the world because we have lost the ability to judge ourselves. Who Are You To Judge? is a book about discernment; the ability to distinguish the false from the true, or better, the false from the half true. Our responsibility as members of the church is to distinguish biblical Christianity from the counterfeit spirituality and values of today's world. "The crying need of the church today is for discernment - the ability to recognize truth and distinguish it from error. Who Are You To Judge? reminds us that truth is important, and (contrary to the spirit of our age) real truth is not merely a matter of subjective individual opinion." John MacArthur, Pastor-Teacher, Grace Community Church "This book is a treasure of Biblical wisdom. It will equip the reader with desperately needed discernment for our time." D. R. C.

$9.00The Sexual Revolution is wreaking havoc on the family, the Church, and the individual's relationship with Jesus Christ. The sexual revolution has impacted our nation, our church and our family. Promiscuity, nudity and sexual obscenities have become commonplace, and our consciences have become desensitized. No longer is there a widespread outcry against the avalanche of filth flaunted daily before our eyes. The repercussions from sexual sin are mounting as moral convictions falter and sexual fads balloon. Neither the nation nor the individual can escape the consequences of disregarding God's commandments. The Bible warns us that, "The wages for sin is death" (Rom 6:23), and "The way of the transgressor is hard" (Prov 13:15). Unless these kinds of works of the flesh are quickly mortified, they become demonic strongholds. Sowing to the flesh produces corruption (Gal 6:8), and corruption (dead flesh) provides a banquet table for unclean spirits. The inevitable consequence of defilement is the loss of fellowship with a holy God. "Pursue...holiness, without which no one will see the Lord" (Heb 13:14). Are the fleeting pleasures of sin worth the forfeiture of our fellowship with God? Learn how to break free from the bondage and repercussions from sexual sin. Learn More -

$13.00Time and again preachers burst onto the scene, attracting attention and followers with what they claim are new insights into Scripture and new powers from God, only to be exposed as being not only unoriginal but false. Benny Hinn, founder and pastor of Orlando Christian Center in Florida, is the most prominent example of this phenomenon. Hinn, whose charismatic church at one time numbered weekly attendance at 10,000 and whose television programs and crusades reach a potential audience of nearly 100 million homes in the United States and Canada, epitomizes the kind of histrionics, emotionalism and hysteria that can bring reproach to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even more damaging to his claim of "revelation" from God is the confusion which abounds in the statements and stories of preacher Benny Hinn. His propensity for exaggeration, embroidery and myth making is well documented within his many public statements and writings. The Confusing World of Benny Hinn is a collection of many popular articles investigating the best-selling author and healing evangelist, first published by Personal Freedom Outreach in its newsletter publication. The reader is furnished with solid research and irrefutable documentation to unmask the bizarre teachings and contradictory spiritual experiences of the faith healer some have dubbed, "The Miracle Man".
