Humble Calvinism (Jeff Meddars)
$12.95Understanding Calvinism in our hearts as well as in our heads.
Calvinism has an image problem. For far too long it has been synonymous with being argumentative, arrogant, and unloving. Somehow the doctrines of grace often haven’t made those who believe them actually gracious.
Self-confessed recovering, cranky Calvinist, Jeff Medders wonders whether the love of God has been replaced with the love of Calvinism. It’s one thing having the “five points” all worked out in your head, but have they really penetrated your heart?
His warm-hearted, challenging (and surprisingly witty) book reveals how a true understanding of “the five points” fuels a love of Christ and his people that builds others up, rather than tearing them down. Medders urges readers to be humble and gracious as well as zealous for the truth, to the praise and glory of Christ and his church.

Humbled: Welcoming the Uncomfortable Work of God (David Mathis)
$7.50How do we humble ourselves? Or, would you prefer to get humbled?
Humility, according to the Bible, is not something we can just up and do. Both the negative and positive examples of Scripture—from Pharaoh to Rehoboam, from Josiah to Ahab, from Hezekiah to Manasseh, and even to Christ himself—teach us that humility first comes from the hand of God. He initiates the humbling of his creatures. And once he has, the question confronts us: Will you receive it? Will you humble yourself in response to His humbling hand, or will you kick against Him?
This concise, accessible study of Scripture’s humble-yourself commands uncovers two surprising lessons about the pursuit of humility in the Christian—both what we cannot do and also what steps we can take.

Pride and His Prisoners (A. L. O. E.)
$21.50Pride is an imprisoning sin. In this excellent story, Pride is personified as a demon which holds most of the inhabitants of an English parish in captivity and forces them to do his bidding. The lives of the characters demonstrate pride in one way or another, and finally results in a near-catastrophe during a hot-air balloon ride! A convicting story with a powerful point for us all!
But not all is lost, for the prisoners of Pride are at last released from his bondage and relationships are restored. Written originally in 1869, the story is timeless as, in every era, we all need a good dose of humility!
A. L. O. E. was the pen name for prolific British writer Charlotte Maria Tucker, which stood for “A Lady of England.”

From Pride to Humility (Stuart Scott)

Pride is a form of self-worship, but often appears in our lives in the most subtle ways.
This little volume will show you numerous ways in which pride may break out in your life, but also suggests how we might pursue humility with the help of the Holy Spirit.

Why Should I Fast? (Daniel Hyde)
$2.25Today, the church seems to have forgotten about the spiritual discipline of fasting. Most of us have never heard a sermon about it, and few of us have ever practiced it. We think of fasting as an antiquated relic of the past. So why should we fast in an age of fast food?
Pastor Daniel R. Hyde argues that “fasting is actually a basic biblical teaching and practice, one that is vital to cultivating godly living in an ungodly generation.” Fasting is a means to the end of abiding, deep, and personal communion with the triune God through prayer. The author explains what fasting is, provides biblical examples of it, reminds us of what Jesus taught regarding it, and tells us how to go about it.
