God’s Love: Better than Unconditional
$5.49“God’s unconditional love.” Sounds nice, but is it enough? Is there more to God’s love?
Describing unconditional love as detached “blanket acceptance” and “benign affirmation,” David Powlison challenges our common assumption about the nature of God’s love. Although wonderfully accepting, divine love is also intrusive, intimate, personal, and active. Instead of simply loving us as we are, God loves us enough to change us.
Powlison acknowledges four underlying truths of unconditional love, offers biblical improvements on the idea, and urges us to see God’s love for what it really is—better than unconditional.

Guidance: Have I Missed God’s Best?
$5.49What choice should I make? How do I know that my decision will fit with God’s plan for me? “We tend to think that while God has a ‘best’ plan for our life, he also has ‘cheaper’ plans for people who miss the best,” writes Petty. “But for those who are in Christ, there is only one plan.” Petty explains that God’s plan and our actions work in concert. With all the decisions we face and despite the mistakes we make, God works in all things for the good, transforming us into the image of Christ (Rom. 8:28). How comforting to know that our choices fulfill that plan in every detail.

Homosexuality: Speaking the Truth in Love
$5.99“Homosexuality is the hot issue of the day,” says Edward T. Welch in this booklet. “Even more than abortion, it will confront the church throughout this generation, forcing us to listen, study, and respond wisely.” How can we answer claims that the Bible does not prohibit committed homosexual relationships? Or that science proves that homosexuality is genetic, not a chosen lifestyle? Welch supplies us with timely biblical and biological insight into homosexuality. Just as importantly, he calls us to examine our attitudes in order to minister to homosexuals truthfully, compassionately, humbly, and persuasively.

Procrastination: First Steps to Change (Walter Henegar)
$5.49“I’ve been procrastinating most of my life. If a task is even remotely unpleasant, my tendency is to put it off. It’s not that I’m lazy; I’m actually very busy. I just wait as long as possible to do the really hard stuff.” This is how author Walter Henegar describes his life. Does it sound like your experience? If so, this booklet will help you see procrastination from God’s point of view, and show you how to change.
Author Walter Henegar recognizes that even though procrastination is acceptable in our culture, it is a deeply rooted sinful pattern in our lives. Only by God’s goodness and grace can our hearts be changed. Do you procrastinate? Do you doubt that you can change? Ask God to change you, and trust that He is able to do it.

Sexual Sin: Combatting the Drifting and Cheating
$5.49“Any time you see a person engage in illicit sexual behavior, you can be sure that he or she is a cheater,” writes Jeffrey S. Black. “He or she wants sexual gratification without intimacy.” Likewise, Black tells us that people never leap into extreme forms of sin; they “drift” into them, and habits that were bad soon move to worse, even unthinkable. How does such a person cease their cheating and drifting? Because sexuality is a spiritual act, not a purely biological one, the solution has to do with planting God’s Word in our hearts. Here Black shows us how the Bible reaches to the roots of sexual sin.

Stress: Peace Amid Pressure
$5.49Are you overwhelmed by stress? On edge? Pressured to achieve? Spinning into free fall? What is the “noise” going on inside you? Or are you quiet inside? David Powlison invites you to look at Psalm 131 to learn how to calm your soul. “Psalm 131 gives us intimate access to the inner life of someone who has learned composure,” Powlison writes.
“This person is quiet on the inside because he has learned the only true and lasting peace.” Psalm 131 is not about unruffled detachment or stoic indifference. It’s not about having an easygoing personality or low expectations. It is about learning composure through a relationship with Jesus Christ. His presence in our lives is the only thing strong enough to overpower stress. We can learn how to say with the psalmist, “Surely I have composed and quieted my soul.” (Psalm 131:2)
