The Library

A famous poet once said that "no man is an island". Every man or woman needs other people for encouragement and guidance. Churches, being made up of people, meet that need. However, no single congregation is an island unto itself. There are folks, called of God, who have things to speak into our lives and our churches. These books are some that we think can do just that to all believers, old and new. So, grab a book off the shelf. Pull up a nice, comfy chair and see what the Body of Christ has to say.

The Case For Christ

Can we really trust that what we call The Bible is any thing close to what the original authors wrote? Is there any reason to believe that a Galilean carpenter was actually the Son of God? Could this carpenter have really risen from the dead? Lee Strobel details his search for the answers to these very questions and more. He gives us a good look at what the historical basis of our faith is.

29 Minutes in Hell

Is Hell real? Can it really be as awful as Jesus made it seem during his time here on Earth? The answer seems to be "Yes".

Tongues: Beyond the Upper Room

It's been an ongoing debate seemingly even from the Day of Pentecost. Some heard those from the Upper Room speaking in their own languages. (Acts 2:6-8) Others apparently only heard gibberish because they mocked this outpouring, accusing the Apostles and those with them of being drunk. (Acts 2:13) In this book Kenneth Hagin spells out what Pentecostals believe, or should believe, about the gift of tongues and the prayer language of tongues.

The Way of the Master

Most of us struggle with how to share our faith with others. Do we simply live a "good life" and hope others are attracted to that? Do we stand on the tailgate of a pickup truck screaming at people about the realities of Hell? Is there a better way? Evangelist Ray Comfort believes there is. He believes that the most effective way to share the gospel with others is to follow the template that Jesus himself used during His ministry. This book will not only show you a non-confrontational way to share your faith, it will make you re examine the way you understand the New Testament and certainly the earthly ministry of Jesus.

The Screwtape Letters

One of the greatest Christian thinkers of the last 100 years, Lewis wrote numerous books on the Christian faith. "The Screwtape Letters" is a collection of letters from an older devil to his younger apprentice devil. The letters instruct the pupil how to distract, discourage, and destroy believers in their walk. Written shortly after World War Two, the themes and suggestions still ring true 60 years later. Every Christian should read this book so they can understand the tactic of our great Enemy.
