It�s never too late. Whether you�re a new Christian or you�ve walked the road for decades, it�s never too late to find the critical truths that make life make sense. We often start out believing that common sense will be enough, that we�re prepared for the road ahead with our good values and quick thinking. It doesn�t take long to learn otherwise. A broken friendship. An obsessive career. Financial distress. Even empty success. We come back to God, searching for insight, for hope. And He provides. Nothing can replace studying the Bible. Best-selling author and pastor Charles Swindoll has spent decades studying its pages and teaching its precepts. But if sixty-six books seem overwhelming, The Owner�s Manual for Christians is the perfect starting place: a biblical summary of the major truths that anchor the Christian life. From grace to freedom, these chapters walk the reader through the keys to a life well lived � drawn from the Creator of life itself. Life is often confusing, but it does not have to be impossible. Read The Owner�s Manual for Christians and find hope for the road ahead.

Four young women learn that there is no hiding from God - and love - in small towns among the rugged bluffs and clear-water lakes of Arkansas and Missouri. Amity and Emily face the biggest transitions of their lives, while Andrea and Carla fight the change that threatens their comfortable existence. Each of the four is about to embark on a journey of trust. Leaving behind nearly everything she treasures, Amity Hudson Edmonds flees her home for The Healing Promise of safety at her aunt's Eureka Springs bed and breakfast. Even there she is a hunted woman, but why? Who can help her? For the next two years, Dr. Emily Richards plans to serve the new clinic in her small hometown in southern Arkansas -then join her fiance on the African mission field. The new owner of the local lumber mill, however, is challenging her goals and ideals. Where can her heart find A Place for Love? As a teacher, president of the local historical society, and a single woman, Andrea Cooper has a comfortable life - until Grant Logan, a talented architect, adamantly refuses to register his Civil War-era house or place a marker in his yard. Will that marker be a symbol of conflict between them - or become A Sign of Love? Carla Bennett is the proud owner of a mountainside bed and breakfast. She is determined to deny The Hasty Heart that beats within her when she first meets Jim Donahue - who has plans for logging her idyllic surroundings. Can these two find a compromise? The road to contentment may be long and winding, like an Ozark highway. What does God have in store for each woman along the way?

Have you ever wondered why we Christians do what we do for church every Sunday morning? Why do we "dress up" for church? Why does the pastor preach a sermon each week? Why do we have pews, steeples, choirs, and seminaries? This volume reveals the startling truth: most of what Christians do in present-day churches is not rooted in the New Testament, but in pagan culture and rituals developed long after the death of the apostles. Coauthors Frank Viola and George Barna support their thesis with compelling historical evidence in the first-ever book to document the full story of modern Christian church practices.
