Why Everything That Doesnt Matter Matters So Much
$19.99
A hopeful and practical model for what it means to be a Christian and a culture-maker in a world of hurt and wondrous possibility, from multi-Grammy winner Charlie Peacock and his wife and author, Andi Ashworth.
Do you feel powerless and overwhelmed by the pain and suffering all around you? Have you ever asked, What can I do to mend the world, my family, or my own life? And if I could, why bother? Does my own small part even matter? If so, here comes hope from two guides who are further down the road. Charlie and Andi have written a collection of letters to Christians and spiritual seekers who think deeply and care acutely about the state of the world and their personal spheres of influence.
In Why Everything That Doesn’t Matter, Matters So Much, beloved and trusted mentors, Charlie and Andi offer you:
*Thought-provoking explorations into the many facets of Christian culture care and making, from the kitchen to Carnegie Hall.
*Practical guidance for how to care for and improve the quality of human life, locally and globally, no matter your vocation.
*A theology of imagination and creativity that provides a framework for all of life.
*A model for expressing love in marriage, friendship, citizenship, and every kind of work–even in the midst of cynicism, fear, exhaustion, and oppression.
It might be said of Christians that our lives are either moving in the direction of the redemption Jesus has on offer, or away from it. Each of these letters is a gentle nudge in the direction of God’s powerfully ordinary purpose for each of us, no matter what the future holds, to participate fully in the beautiful, redemptive work of Christ.

Create In Me A Pure Heart
$15.99Add to cartShe who gives herself to wanton pleasure,” observed the apostle Paul, “is dead even while she lives.” These ominous words perfectly articulate the living hell in which many Christian women are currently living. The Christian community has long thought that sexual sin is strictly a man’s problem, but statistics indicate that the problem among women is much more widespread than anyone might have imagined. The desire to connect with someone emotionally, the indulgence in romantic fantasies, the craving for male attention and the ever-present godless influences of the media have all combined to create what has quietly become a spiritual epidemic in our midst. Create in Me a Pure Heart addresses the unique issues that the struggling woman faces. Utilizing the profound insights found in the author’s best-selling book, At the Altar of Sexual Idolatry, this book offers a clear-cut path to freedom that will prove to be invaluable to pastors, counselors and struggling women.
