Great Fireside reads for you

Winter warmers

Winter is coming, and there is nothing nicer than sitting and reading in front of a fire with a mug of hot chocolate in your hand.
Lifted By Sam Allberry

For many people, the resurrection is a nice thing to believe in. Usually, we treat it as an event that happened long ago and far away–a “happy ending” to the gospel, after the darkness of the cross. But Sam Allberry shows us that the resurrection is far more than a mere event. It gives us real assurance of forgiveness and salvation, power to live new and transformed lives, and hope for life after death.

 Lifted
A Proverbs Driven Life By Anthony Selvaggio

This is a book about the wisdom that God has given us in the book of Proverbs. By this wisdom, we can learn how to live in light of what is really true about ourselves and one another. Proverbs does offer an infallible guarantee that a Proverbs-driven life will result in spiritual and practical blessings. But it is vitally important to remember that the goal of Proverbs is not finding earthly prosperity or even wisdom itself. The goal of Proverbs is to grow ever closer to the God who is Wisdom.

Unpacking Forgiveness By Chris Brauns

Only God’s Word can unpack forgiveness. The wounds are too deep for us to find healing on our own, and the questions are too complex to be unravelled by anything but the wisdom of God. Unpacking Forgiveness combines sound theological thinking and honesty about the complicated questions many face to provide readers with a solid understanding of biblical forgiveness.

 Unpacking Forgiveness
   
Fool’s Gold By John MacArthur

In an age of open-mindedness, many believers accept too much with too little discernment, resulting in great confusion and compromise. But God’s Word makes it clear that not everything that glitters is gold. False teaching is at every turn, and the temptation to embrace it is great. As God’s people we are called to sift through the overwhelming number of traditions and trends and use the truth of Scripture to determine which are the true treasures, and which are “fool’s gold”.

 Fool's Gold?
Who are you to judge? By Dave Swavely

The sin of judging and the error of legalism cause many of the interpersonal conflicts we experience.  They plague our Christian institutions, sapping our spiritual strength and hindering our service.  This helpful book defines judging and legalism in a biblical manner, and discusses two often -overlooked biblical commands: Do not pass judgment before time, and do not go beyond what is written (1 Cor. 4:5-6).

New Arrival from John Piper

 

Living in the Light: Money Sex & Power

Money sex and powerWhether we’re rich or poor, married or single, in a position of great influence or not – all of us face temptation in the areas of money, sex and power. They are the dangerous opportunities of our time – opportunities to destroy our own souls, or to experience the true joy of using them for God’s glory.

John Piper shows us that when we have the blazing glory of Christ at the centre of our spiritual solar system, the planets of money, sex and power find their true and beautiful orbits.  This book is for every Christian and will help you to wake up to the all-satisfying glory of God, and discover what you were made for.

Steadfast Love  Spiritual Mothering (Repackaged)
Steadfast Love by Lauren Chandler
There are times when worship overflows easily and effortlessly from a heart full of gratitude and praise.  Yet there are other times when God seems far and we feel we have nothing to offer.  This is when God shows us His steadfast love.
 Spiritual Mothering by Susan Hunt
For many churches, women’s ministries, and women’s Bible study groups, the missing element of discipleship is the interpersonal aspect. Titus 2:3-5 clarifies what mature spiritual relationships between generations of women should look like. Susan Hunt unveils how to put that model into action with stories of biblical and contemporary women who have responded to God’s call, as well as page after page of personal encouragement, practical insight, and ministry-tested how-to’s.

Remembering Christ’s Ascension

Jesus did not leave us forever when he ascended into Heaven.  He left the Holy Spirit to comfort, help and guide us.  Below are some titles to assist us in our spiritual walk.
God’s Greater Glory by Bruce Ware

God's Greater GloryBruce Ware believes that while tradition’s emphasis on God’s metaphysical perfection and His supremacy over the world is correct, we must refine our understanding of the way in which He relates to us. While retaining the deepest concerns of the historic tradition, Ware offers a more rational view of God’s dealings with His children–a view that is reflected in Scripture’s own testimony of Him. Ware then applies this concept of real divine exaltation and real divine-human relationship to the areas of our prayer life, confidence in God and His guidance of us.

New arrival from Timothy Keller

TIm KellerTimothy Keller is the founder and senior pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, and the New York Times bestselling author of The Reason for God and The Prodigal God. He has also mentored young urban church planters and pastors in New York and other cities through Redeemer City to City, which has helped launch over 200 churches in 35 global cities to date.

Shaped by the GospelSHAPED BY THE GOSPEL: WHAT IS GOSPEL-CENTERED MINISTRY?

Many churches claim to be gospel-centered but do not have a ministry that is shaped by, centered on, and empowered through the gospel.  The implications of the gospel have not yet worked their way into the fabric of how that church does ministry.   Gospel-centered ministry is more theologically driven than program driven. To pursue it, we must spend time reflecting on the essence, the truths, and the very patterns of the gospel itself.  The gospel is neither religion nor irreligion, but something else entirely- a third way of relating to God through grace.  Timothy Keller addresses several current discussion and conflicts about the nature of the gospel and shows how faithful preaching of the gospel leads to individual and corporate renewal.

CBD PRICE: R250.00     BUY NOW

 Serving a MovementSERVING A MOVEMENT: IT TAKES A MOVEMENT TO REACH A CITY

Today many Christian leaders are struggling to adapt to an increasingly post-Christian culture without compromising orthodox theology.  How do we communicate the concepts of sin, grace and atonement in our culture and context?   Timothy Keller looks at the nature of the church’s mission and its relationship to the work of individual Christians in the world. He examines what it means to be a missional church today and how churches can practically equip people for missional living. Churches need to intentionally cultivate an integrative ministry that connects people to God, to one another, to the needs of the city, and to the culture around us. Finally, he highlights the need for intentional movements of churches planting new churches that faithfully proclaim God’s truth and serve their communities.

Loving the CityLOVING THE CITY : BIBLICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR ENGAGING OUR CULTURE 

Even if you don’t go to the city to minister, the city is coming to you. Because global culture is increasingly urban, churches need a theological vision for ministry that is contextually aware of urban culture. Timothy Keller looks at the biblical foundations for contextualizing the gospel as we communicate to the culture in a way that is both respectful and challenging. He articulates the key characteristics of a city vision, showing how the city develops as a theme throughout Scripture, from its anti-God origins, to its strategic importance for mission, to its culmination and redemption in glory.  Finally, he examines the need for thoughtful cultural engagement, unpacking four models for engaging culture, showing the strengths and weaknesses of each approach and emphasizing a blended approach that balances the key insights of each.

God is AbleGod is Able

Have you got an impossible situation? Impenetrable? Unchangeable?  Maybe so . . . until God gets involved. No matter the details of your circumstance, His raw power potential and immeasurable ability refuse to cower in the face of any challenge. Nothing is impossible with God. Nothing. Not even that thing.

You have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It’s specific. Personalized. Targeted.  So this book is your chance to strike back. With prayer

CBD PRICE: R235.00 (paperback)

 

Life Interrupted (PB)Life Interrupted

We, like Jonah, tend to run from interruptions. When major pains and minor problems cause a hiccup in our carefully calculated plans and goals we head in the opposite direction. Priscilla talks of opportunities lost and lessons learned, and the amazing freedom and fulfilment that comes from going with God even when He’s going against your grain.

CBD PRICE R205.00

Is That You GodIs that you God?

This booklet is a taster of Priscilla’s book “Discerning the voice of God”. Priscilla demonstrates God’s desire and willingness to personally communicate with His children and helps readers understand how to determine if a message comes from God or from another source. Because the Father passionately loves us, He desires a personal relationship in which He speaks to and talks with us. The more intimate our relationship with Him, the clearer God’s voice becomes.

CBD PRICE: R16.00 (booklet)

One in a million bookOne in a Million

Priscilla Shirer invites us to change that pattern for good, living beyond our circumstances and expecting to see God move in miraculous ways day after day. Without a doubt, we can find and follow God’s purpose for our journey. We can make it to the Promised Land!
