                The Power of Praying for your Adult Children
         Stormie Omartian

This is one of the most helpful books I have found in dealing with the   issues I have encountered in parenting nearly-grown children.  Stormie’s awareness and understanding of the difficulties many of us face with children in today’s world is both frank and compassionate.  Her sample prayers guide you to totally cover every aspect of your child’s life in prayer, and their unwavering and well-shared faith in the power of God to answer those prayers truly does give you hope and “a peace you can find no other way”. 

  The Pursuit of Holiness
Jerry Bridges

This book changed my whole perspective on living a life that is not of this world as I read about the joy that comes from obedience to God.  Jerry Bridges provides practical ways to experience victory in Christ over sin and triumph over the darkness that entangles all of us on a daily basis. This book brought a whole new meaning of holiness to my life. It's a holiness that I desire and long for more than ever. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is searching for a deeper walk with God and who wants to see fruit in their life.

 The Sacred Romance
Brent Curtis and John Eldredge

In reading this book I became closer to God then I ever have been before.  My quiet times to just sit and reflect on who God is became more real to me. I longed to have more times with my Lord, and I could hardly wait to have my quiet time in the morning - just to know that I'd be with Him and His love would surround me more than it already does. John says "there is only one being who can satisfy the aching abyss of the human heart and that is Jesus!"  

Respectable Sins-Confronting the Sins We Tolerate

Jerry Bridges

As Christians, we believe that all sins are considered equal in God's eyes.  Yet while evangelicals continue to decry the Big Ones, such as abortion, adultery, and violence, we often overlook more deceptive sins.  It seems we have created a sliding scale where gossip, jealousy, discontent, pride and selfishness, comfortably exist within the church. In short, some sins have simply become acceptable.  Acclaimed author Jerry Bridges confronts the sins that we often gloss over and sheds light on the subtle behaviors that can derail our spiritual growth.  Order book now from Nav Press
