Book Description
How to Travel Down the Narrow Road That Leads to Heaven The narrow road that leads to heaven is very difficult to travel. You must work hard to drive up this bumpy road and avoid running out of faith or making a wrong turn. The road to hell is wide and smooth and easy to travel down. It does not require faith, and although you may take a right or left turn at one of the intersections, all roads lead to the same place of unending torment. The purpose of this book is to give you clear directions and a biblical map you can follow to get to heaven. There are fourteen stops along the way, starting with turning away from sin and turning toward God and ending with obeying the traffic laws of life that Jesus taught. All the stops in between give you the encouragement and knowledge you need to stay on track for a successful journey. These include receiving the gift of salvation and eternal life, developing a relationship with the Holy Spirit, having faith to follow Jesus, serving and loving God and your neighbor, digging deep into God's Word, giving generously, praying continually, getting ready for the end times, and living like Christ. Once you arrive at your final destination, there is no turning back. So take time to look over the directions carefully, study the map, and read the Scriptures written on the road signs posted all along the way.

Hexham outlines key beliefs and practices in each religion, while also providing guidance on how to think critically about them from the standpoint of Christian theology.

Book Description
A Taste of Grace is an easy-to-read page-turning exploration of God's amazing grace, demonstrated and illustrated by the teachings of Jesus. A Taste of Grace proclaims God's grace as irreconcilably opposed to the core values and beliefs of institutionalized religion and reveals God's grace to be an absurd and foolish sentiment that doesn't add up to the human mind.

Book Description
A boy doesn't automatically become a man at age 18. What differentiates a man from a boy is the way he lives. A boy lives day to day, wants to be MVP, plays, wants the reassurance of the crowd, and is a predator. A man has a vision for his life, is a team player, works, has the courage to take a minority position, and is a protector. These are the five marks of a man. It's not enough to just know them. A real man aggressively pursues them on a daily basis. Drawing from his own experience and the lives of others, pastor Brian Tome calls on men to examine themselves and take steps in the direction of a fully realized manhood that honors God, respects women, elevates others, and works purposefully for an end greater than their own satisfaction or pleasure. It's time for men to step into their honorable place in the world and lean into a new reality--one defined by strength, purpose, and honor.

Book Description
Reclaim Your Headspace and Find Your One True Voice As a hospital chaplain, J.S. Park encountered hundreds of patients at the edge of life and death, listening as they urgently shared their stories, confessions, and final words. J.S. began to identify patterns in his patients’ lives—patterns he also saw in his own life. He began to see that the events and traumas we experience throughout life become deafening voices that remain within us, even when the events are far in the past. He was surprised to find that in hearing the voices of his patients, he began to identify his own voices and all the ways they could both harm and heal. In The Voices We Carry, J.S. draws from his experiences as a hospital chaplain to present the Voices Model. This model explores the four internal voices of self-doubt, pride, people-pleasing, and judgment, and the four external voices of trauma, guilt, grief, and family dynamics. He also draws from his Asian-American upbringing to examine the challenges of identity and feeling “other.” J.S. outlines how to wrestle with our voices, and even befriend them, how to find our authentic voice in a world of mixed messages, and how to empower those who are voiceless. Filled with evidence-based research, spiritual and psychological insights, and stories of patient encounters, The Voices We Carry is an inspiring memoir of unexpected growth, humor, and what matters most. For those wading through a world of clamor and noise, this is a guide to find your clear, steady voice.
