Finding God In The Margins
$12.99
The ancient book of Ruth speaks into today’s world with astonishing relevance.
In four short episodes, readers encounter refugees, undocumented immigrants, poverty, hunger, women’s rights, male power and privilege, discrimination, and injustice.
In Finding God in the Margins, Carolyn Custis James reveals how the book of Ruth is about God, the questions that surface when life falls apart, and how God reaches into the margins and chooses two totally marginalized women who, in the eyes of the patriarchal culture, are zeros.
Against the backdrop of disturbing issues in today’s world, this bracing narrative puts on display a radical gospel way of living together as human beings that shouts the Kingdom of God, foreshadows Jesus’ gospel, and raises the bar for men and women, then and now.

Jesus Calling : Enjoying Power In His Presence – With Full Scriptures (Large Typ
$26.99Read moreNow available in this expanded large-print leather deluxe edition, missionary Sarah Young brings these uniquely inspired treasures from heaven for every day of the year! After many years of writing in her prayer journal, missionary Sarah Young decided to listen to God with pen in hand, writing down whatever she believed He was saying to her. It was awkward at first, but gradually her journaling changed from monologue to dialogue. She knew her writings were not inspired as Scripture is, but journaling helped her grow closer to God. Others were blessed as she shared her writings, until people all over the world were using her messages. These devotions are written from Jesus’ point of view, thus the title Jesus Calling . It is Sarah’s fervent prayer that our Savior may bless readers with His presence and His peace in ever deeper measure.
