Searching for Wisdom: Finding the Father in Proverbs

Book Author Conrad Hilario

It’s easy to miss when you read the book of Proverbs: Solomon addresses his children, dozens of times. Since he fathered an untold number of children, Solomon chose to write them a collection of his wise observations they could all read whenever they had time. This timeless wise message from a father to his child is just as relevant today as it ever was.

Today, many Americans grow up in broken and single-parent homes. As a result, they long for guidance in confusing areas such as sex, managing money, and building lasting friendships.  In Searching for Wisdom, pastor Conrad Hilario shows how our heavenly Father's wisdom in Proverbs fills in the gaps left by our earthly parents.

Loving God's Way: A Fresh Look at the One Another Passages

Book Author Gary DeLashmutt

Love means many different things to different people. However, God has a unique definition of love and has demonstrated it to us through His son, Jesus. But what does this look like practically in our day-to-day relationships? How do we demonstrate this love to others? DeLashmutt spells this out through his use of the "one-another" passages in the New Testament. He explains how God's definition of love, when practiced, can lead to an authentic Christian community. This book is a fresh look at the practical issues of loving one another in a way that honors Christ and attracts people who are far from God. The heart of the Christian community is not structure; it is the members' commitment to love one another as Jesus loves us.

Liberation! Follow the Book of Hebrews to a Life of Radical Grace

Book Author Dennis McCallum

The early Hebrew Christians were in big trouble! Beginning with little steps of unbelief, they were now hardened in their hearts and dull of hearing. To escape persecution and fit in with the neighbors, they accommodated and domesticated the radical call of Jesus. This is what happens when people abandon revolutionary grace for a watered-down legalism. Modern readers will be able to recognize the Hebrews' condition because much of the modern Western church has the same problem.

Hebrews is God's answer to people who have lost track of what a true life of grace means. McCallum’s Liberation is a walkthrough of Romans 5-8. He guides readers through Hebrews with clear exposition, engaging illustrations, and relevant application. He tackles key differences between law and grace, how Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament ritual system, how to understand Israel’s history, and the importance of the Christian community. It's a perfect tool for group study, discipleship, or personal study.
