Discover grace as you've never known it before: the most powerful force in the universe and our only hope for love and forgiveness. Grace is the church's great distinctive. It's the one thing the world cannot duplicate, and the one thing it craves above all else--for only grace can bring hope and transformation to a jaded world. In What's So Amazing About Grace? award-winning author Philip Yancey explores grace at street level. If grace is God's love for the undeserving, he asks, then what does it look like in action? And if Christians are its sole dispensers, then how are we doing at lavishing grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy?

If God is loving, why is there suffering? What is the difference between permitting something and ordaining it? When bad things happen, who is behind them, God or the devil? When suffering touches our lives, questions like these suddenly demand answers. From our perspective, suffering doesn't make sense, especially when we believe in a loving and just God. After more than thirty years in a wheelchair, Joni Erickson Tada's intimate experience with suffering gives her a special understanding of God's intensions for us in our pain. In "When God Weeps", she and lifelong friend Steve Estes probe beyond glib answers that fail us in our time of deepest need. Instead, with firmness and compassion they reveal a God big enough to understand our suffering, wise enough to allow it and powerful enough to use it for a greater good than we can ever imagine.

Is fatigue next to Godliness? When was the last time you woke up rested, really rested, exuberant, and excited about meeting the day?

Have you ever watched an eagle soar? Picture one now, gliding motionless on the thermal winds, far above the gusts that whip the surface of the earth. His movement is most graceful when he yields to the flow of the currents and lets them carry him. That's the way it is with Christians, says Jamie Buckingham, when we relinquish our lives to the movement of God's Spirit. With biblical examples like Moses, Joshua, and David, and with graphic testimony of his own experiences, Jamie Buckingham shows the consequence of resisting God's presence in the innermost recesses of our lives, and the almost indescribable changes that come when we yield to Him. Here is a book that shows you how your life with Christ can move beyond just being a memory of a salvation experience. If you let Him, God can and will lift you from your present existence and start you on a venture Where Eagles Soar.

Approximate time: 1 hour 46 minutes
Catalog number: 1005
This short book attempts to provide biblical answers to questions anyone suffering from some ailment or difficulty often asks: where is God? Unfortunately, it is not always as simple as saying a prayer and everything is OK again. The big question is also the one that is really not answered in a forthright way, because it cannot be. God will not make our lives easy and simple just because we ask. The real message of the book is not that God has abandoned us, or that someone (perhaps even God) is behind our sufferings. No, the real answer is the message of hope that the Bible can provide.
