Already Gone: Why your Kids will quit Church and what you can do to Stop it - Ken Ham, Britt Beimer
Paperback | 189 pages | Master Books
List Price: $12.99
Sale Price: $10.00
Nationwide polls and denominational reports are showing that the next generation is calling it quits on the traditional church. What are the factors causing this? Ken Ham from Answers in Genesis and Britt Beemer from America’s Research Group worked together to find out. In the first scientific study of its kind, Beemer surveyed a thousand 20-30 year olds who used to go to Evangelical churches on a regular basis but have since left it behind. The results are fascinating at many points, such as:
* Those who faithfully attended Sunday school are more likely to leave the church than those who do not.
* Those who regularly attended Sunday school are more likely to believe that the Bible is less true.
* Over half of those who faithfully attended church feel that church is not relevant to real life today.
A vast disconnect is taking place between our children and their church experience. The trends are troubling; this book, Already Gone shows how to fight back for our families and our churches.

Paperback | 220 pages | Calvary Press
List Price: $15.95
Sale Price: $12.50
Anger! Is it ever a problem in your home? Do your children ever speak to you in angry, disrespectful tones? Or do they fight between themselves? Have you ever lost your patience when dealing with an infuriating situation? If you honestly answered "yes" to any of those questions, you could use this book. Of course Christian families experience episodes of frustration and anger. Here's a book which goes beyond the external manifestations of anger and deals with the internal source: the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
"I know of no other book that addresses this problem with such practical and applicable Biblical wisdom." -- John MacArthur, Jr.
"An extremely readable and practical book about a problem frequently encountered but too rarely addressed. There is nothing else like it. Counselors will want their own copy as well as others to give away. Pastors will put it in their libraries. Parents will devour it! Christian children will benefit from it. It is a book whose time has come." -- Jay Adams

Sherman Isbell

Read on, prepare to be challenged and rejoice that God raises up such historians for the blessing of the Church." - Dr. Michael Haykin

Of Knights and Fair Maidens - Jeff & Danielle Myers
Hardcover | 122 pages | Grace and Truth Books
List Price: $13.50
Sale Price: $10.00
An old favorite, back in print in a new hardcover edition! This was one of our most requested Out of Print books for years - and now available again!
Jeff and Danielle were determined to do things differently. So, before the era of "True Love Waits" or the writing of I Kissed Dating Goodbye, they interviewed married couples to discover the keys to a successful courtship. They applied these principles in their own relationship and later, wrote this humorous, heart-warming book. 15 years later, they have re-released an updated version of this classic, which has given tens of thousands of young couples honest and straightforward counsel about the best way to prepare for marriage.
"Jeff and Danielle prove that God's plan for relationships is not out of date or old-fashioned - it's for the adventurous, courageous and most importantly, romantic Christian single who wants God's best in relationships and marriage." -- Joshua Harris, Senior Pastor, Covenant Life Church, Gaithersburg, MD and author of I Kissed Dating Goodbye and Boy Meets Girl: Say Hello to Courtship.

The Betrayal: A Novel on John Calvin - Douglas Bond
Paperback | 388 pages | P & R Publishing
List Price: $14.99
Sale Price: $12.50
Popular, skilled fiction writer Douglas Bond's newest book! - written from the vantage point of a lifelong sworn enemy of Calvin - a boy who grows up in the same town and yet remains close to Calvin life to the very end.
From the publisher: "This fast-paced biographical novel is a tale of envy that escalates to violent intrigue and shameless betrayal."
"With masterful insight, Douglas Bond offers us an illuminating portrait of the life, ministry, and theology of John Calvin. For readers of all ages, this well-researched, historical fiction takes us back to the sixteenth-century Reformation as if we were eye-witnesses of all that God accomplished in and through the life of His humble servant John Calvin." -- Burk Parsons, editor of the book John Calvin: A Heart for Devotion, Doctrine, Doxology
"Douglas Bond introduces John Calvin to us in a gripping way, colorfully taking us back to Geneva and its times, unveiling Calvin as the principled man of action, commitment, and love that he was. The Betrayal makes for an exciting read, showing the great Reformer's heart for theology, piety, and doxology, while almost effortlessly and implicitly undoing caricatures about Calvin along the way. If you want Calvin and his times brought to life in a page-turner, this is the book for you!" -- Joel Beeke

The Potter's Freedom: - James White
Paperback | 338 pages | Calvary Press
List Price: $19.99
Sale Price: $14.50
Is Calvinism morally repugnant? Or is it simply short-hand for the true gospel? James White has written a defense of the very principles upon which the Protestant Reformation was founded. Indeed, it is a defense of the very gospel itself! In a style that both scholars and the ordinary Christian can appreciate, James White masterfully counters the evidence against so-called "extreme Calvinism", defines what the Reformed Faith actually is, and concludes that the gospel preached by the Reformers is the very one taught in the pages of Scripture.

What He Must Be If He Wants to Marry My Daughter - Voddie Baucham
Paperback | 216 pages | Crossway Books
List Price: $15.99
Sale Price: $13.50
All parents want their daughters to marry godly young men. But which qualities, specifically, should they be looking for?
What will you say when that certain young man sits down in your living room, sweaty-palmed and tongue-tied, and asks your permission to marry your daughter? What criteria should he meet before the two of them join together for life? What He Must Be… If He Wants to Marry My Daughter outlines ten qualities parents should look for in a son-in-law, including trustworthiness, a willingness to lead his family, an understanding of his wife’s role, and various spiritual leadership qualities.
Author Voddie Baucham follows up on his popular book Family Driven Faith with this compelling apologetic of biblical manhood. By studying the principles outlined in his book, parents who want their daughter to marry a godly man—as well as those who want their sons to become godly men—will be well equipped to help their children look for and develop these God-honoring qualities.

Womanly Dominion: More Than a Gentle and Quiet Spirit - Mark Chanski
Paperback | 240 pages | Calvary Press
List Price: $16.99
Sale Price: $12.50
Christian woman - take dominion!
"Play your position!" is a call we may hear a coach yell at a soccer or football game. The meaning is: "Do what you have been assigned to do, and do it well!"
Many Christian women have been told over the years that they must quietly stay under their parasols while their men go out and conquer the world. But is this what the Bible really teaches? Author and pastor Mark Chanski insists that the Bible tells us a different story. He insists that the Bible teaches a woman to take dominion of her God-assigned role as wife, mother and church helper. No, not in a feminist way, but in a God-glorifying way that speaks volumes of who she is and why God created her.
Women should not think of themselves as victims, but as victors who conquer the realm that their Lord and Master Jesus Christ has given them.
This book may well significantly change the way you look at Christian womanhood.
