Salty : The Deconstruction Of A Good Christian
$18.99
“Growing up, I wanted to desire God. But I never desired him like I desired popularity, pizza or People magazine. .?.?. It was infinitely easier to play the part of the good Christian than to actually live like one.
Hollylu Jostes was a good Christian. From the outside, she was everything Proverbs 31 required. But inside her foundation was fundamentally flawed. She wanted God but not at the cost of everything. She wanted to be “in the fold” and saved from damnation without it affecting her decisions on any given day. In the club but not a Gold Star member. This is the problem with lukewarm faith-it kills you before you feel it killing you.
Weary of claiming a faith that promised supernatural and transformational power, yet living with fear, anxiety, and doubt, Hollylu was at the ultimate fork in the road: reject her faith or stop thinking so deeply about it. The third option wasn’t even on her radar: total commitment to God.
Salty: The Deconstruction of a Good Christian will take you on Hollylu’s journey as she examines her faith in relation to her everyday life. Her refreshingly candid story-full of feisty exchanges with God-will inspire you to live as salt of the earth and as an agent of change, fully surrendered and transformed by Jesus.

Love Stories Of The Bible Speak
$27.99Biblical Studies
Additional Info
The Bible is full of “love” stories. But the Biblical idea of love is so much bigger than we imagine.Love is at the heart of the Bible. From the moment Adam declared Eve “flesh of my flesh”…to the sacrificial love of Joseph for Mary…to the deep friendship of David and Jonathan…to the abounding and never-changing love of God: The Bible is a love story. But it also redefines the way the world tells us we should think about love.
The Bible reveals not just butterflies and broken hearts. In Scripture, we see God’s beautiful design for the partnership of marriage. We witness friendships that cross all boundaries. We watch as families navigate the many seasons of life. Our guiding example for them all is the deepest, most abiding, foundational love ever known: God’s unconditional love for His people.
In The Love Stories of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream draws lessons from the good, the bad, and the ugly of Biblical romances, friendships, and families. She shows how God’s love is often very different from ours, turning upside down our assumptions about life, relationships, and each other.
The Love Stories of the Bible Speak reminds us that, no matter where we find ourselves, God’s unwavering love will sustain and guide us. These insights into biblical relationships will uplift and encourage you, and reveal new dimensions to the most central Christian duty: to love God and your neighbor.
