These same choices were made by Daniel, a young Jewish man serving God in a godless society, who was revered by God and saved from lions.

Bestselling author Anne Graham Lotz teaches you that Daniel’s choices can be your choices—choices such as:
- The choice to trust
- The choice to obey
- The choice to pray
- The choice to worship
- The choice to repent
- The choice to live humbly
- The choice to have courage
The 20 choices will bring you:
- Contentment when the world says you are not enough
- Closeness born of a relationship with God
- Boldness to share the truth
- Peace in times of trial
- Life-changing faith
This lovely audiobook makes a thoughtful gift for a friend or loved one. It’s ideal for birthdays, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or Christmas. Or perhaps it’s a gift you can give yourself for your time studying God’s Word each day.
With Daniel’s model for godly living, you can have the same kind of life-changing faith he did. One where you find contentment in your circumstances and peace in times of trial.

It’s easy to trust God when things are going our way and the world makes sense. But when suffering strikes–especially seemingly senseless suffering–we are filled with doubt and stunned by events spiraling beyond our control.
In the midst of suffering, we often question the very foundation of our faith–our belief in the God who says he loves us. Since our trust and obedience rest on God’s character, the questions that life’s tragedies force us to face are difficult, even frightening:
- Who is God?
- Can he really be trusted?
- What are his purposes in the face of suffering?
- If he can stop suffering, why doesn’t he?
Joni Eareckson Tada, a woman who has lived in a wheelchair for more than thirty years, and Steve Estes, a pastor and one of Joni’s closest friends, explore the answers. When God Weeps is not so much a book about suffering as it is about God. It tackles tough questions about heaven and hell, horrors and hardships, and why God allows suffering in this life.
Through a panoramic overview of what the Bible says about suffering, the authors make clear who God is, why he permits so much heartache and pain, and how it is we can trust him. With both a practical edge and heartfelt warmth, When God Weeps offers dependence on his love and mercy in spite of our doubts, fears, longings, and questions.

Join bestselling author Charles Swindoll as he sheds light on a man whose tenacious faith kept him strong in the face of temptation, danger, and torment.
Great Lives: Joseph presents a fresh look at one of the most intriguing characters in the Old Testament and focuses on the virtue of forgiveness in the face of deceit and betrayal.
From his famous multi-colored coat through the jealous rage that prompts his brothers to sell him into slavery to his astounding rise to national power, Swindoll follows Joseph through temptation, imprisonment, his ascension in Egyptian society, and the brothers who deceived him.
Despite the incredible challenges he faced throughout his life, Joseph stood firm, exemplifying what’s possible when ordinary people maintain their connections with God.
In Great Lives: Joseph, the third installment in Swindoll’s bestselling Great Lives from God’s Word series, Swindoll traces the life and legacy of a man who exemplified grace under pressure, teaching us how to:
- Be quick to forgive
- Live with integrity
- Trust God every step of the way
Joseph’s story reads like an epic novel, filled with intrigue, tension, temptation, and torrential emotions–but it heartens us as we face the same kinds of difficulties today, proving that we can triumph over whatever life sends our way.

We like God small. We prefer a God who is safe, domesticated, who thinks like we think, likes what we like, and whom we can manage, predict, and control. A small God is convenient. Practical. Manageable.
The truth: God is big. Bigger than big. Bigger than all the words we use to say big.
Ironically, many today seem turned off by the concept of an awesome, terrifyingly great God. We assume that a God you would need to fear is guilty of some kind of fault. For us, thinking of God as so infinitely greater and wiser than we are and who would cause us to tremble in his presence is a leftover relic from an oppressive, archaic view of religion.
But what if this small version of God we’ve created is holding us back from the greatest experience of our lives–from genuine, confident, world-transforming faith?
In Not God Enough, J. D. reveals how to discover a God who
is big enough to handle your questions, doubts, and fears;is not silent;is worthy of worship;wants to take you from boring to bold in your faith;has a purpose and mission for you on earth; andis pursuing you right now.
God is not just a slightly better, slightly smarter version of you. God is infinite and glorious, and an encounter with him won’t just change the way you think about your faith. It’ll change your entire life.

Though only a few words were exchanged between the Lord and Mary, Sibbes saw in them the gospel in a nutshell.
A Heavenly Conference is a wonderfully original treatment of the doctrine of the believer’s union with Christ. It is written by a loving and tender-hearted pastor whose main aim is to help believers enjoy the comfort that comes from knowing that Jesus’ God and Father is our God and Father too. “For from this, that God is our God, cometh all that we have that is good in nature and grace. Whatsoever is comfortable cometh from this spring, that God in Christ is our God, our reconciled God.”
Without such assurance, we simply cannot live Christian lives as God would have us. God would have us thankful, cheerful, rejoicing, and strong in faith: but we will be none of these things unless we are sure that God and Christ are ours for good. Here, then, are pastorally vital truths that Sibbes seeks to work into us.

Rediscover faith in the character, power, and presence of God. Even in the questions. Even in the hurt.
“I want to believe, I want to have hope, but . . .” Pastor and bestselling author Craig Groeschel hears these words often and has asked them himself. We want to know God, feel his presence, and trust that he hears our prayers, but in the midst of great pain, we may wonder if he really cares about us. Even when we have both hope and hurt, sometimes it’s the hurt that shouts the loudest.
In¬†Hope in the Dark,¬†Groeschel explores the story of the father who brought his demon-possessed son to Jesus, saying, “I believe! Help my unbelief!” In the man’s sincere plea, Jesus heard the tension in the man’s battle-scarred heart. He healed not only the boy but the father too, driving out the hopelessness that had overtaken him. He can do the same for us today.
As Groeschel shares his pain surrounding the health challenges of his daughter, he acknowledges the questions we may ask in our own deepest pain:
- “Where was God when I was being abused?”
- “Why was my child born with a disability?”
- “Why did the cancer come back?”
- “Why are all my friends married and I’m alone?”
He invites us to wrestle with such questions as we ask God to honor our faith and heal our unbelief. Because in the middle of your profound pain, you long for authentic words of understanding and hope. You long to know that even in overwhelming reality, you can still believe that God is good.
Hope in the Dark is also available in Spanish, Esperanza en la Oscuridad.

Queremos conocer a Dios, sentir su presencia, y confiar en que Él escucha nuestras oraciones;  sin embargo, cuando experimentamos gran dolor podemos preguntarnos si de verdad Él se interesa por nosotros. Aunque tengamos tanto esperanza como dolor, a veces el sufrimiento es quien grita más alto. ¿Puede Dios ser bueno cuando la vida no lo es?
En Esperanza en la oscuridad Groeschel analiza la experiencia de aquel padre que trajo a su hijo endemoniado ante Jesús, y declaró: “¡Creo! ¡Ayuda mi incredulidad!”. En la súplica sincera del hombre, Jesús percibió la tensión del corazón humano cubierto de las cicatrices de la batalla. No solo sanó al muchacho, sino también al padre, al expulsar de él la desesperanza que se había apoderado de él. Hoy, Él puede hacer lo mismo por nosotros.
Al compartir Groeschel su propio dolor por los retos de salud a los que se hija se enfrenta en la actualidad, reconoce las preguntas que podemos formular en nuestro más profundo dolor: “¿Dónde estaba Dios cuando yo sufría malos tratos?”. “¿Por qué mi hijo, o mi hija, nació con una discapacidad?”. “¿Por qué regresó el cáncer?”. “¿Por qué todos mis amigos están casados, y yo sigo solo?”. Nos invita a luchar con este tipo de preguntas, cuando le pedimos a Dios que honre nuestra fe, y sane nuestra incredulidad.
En medio de su profundo dolor, anhelas oír palabras auténticas de comprensión y esperanza. Ansías saber que incluso en medio de la abrumadora realidad, todavía puedes creer que Dios es bueno. Vuelve a descubrir la fe en el carácter, en el poder y en la presencia de Dios. Hasta en las preguntas. Incluso ahora mismo.

Jesus Culture founder and pastor Banning Liebscher reveals the three key moves that will awaken your heart and propel you into a life of divine purpose.
You were made for more than a life of holy discontent–more than the frustrating sense of sitting on the sidelines of your own life’s purpose. From the beginning, Jesus has beckoned us out of passivity and into a high-stakes adventure with hearts fully alive, lives fully engaged, and the courage needed for both.
With a heart-stirring message and compelling stories, founder of Jesus Culture and pastor Banning Liebscher will equip you with practical guidance to be and do all that God has called you to. The Three-Mile Walk draws from the biblical story of Jonathan, who, after a treacherous three-mile hike, boldly stepped into battle and watched God work a stunning victory in the midst of impossible odds. Likewise, Liebscher presents the three key attributes you need to fully engage your mission–courage, holiness, and faith. In his power-packed, memorable style, Liebscher offers fresh insight and instruction for answering your calling with a courageous “yes,” and setting out on the journey of a lifetime.
You are meant to change the world. It’s going to be tough, surprising, and more fulfilling than you can imagine. You just need the courage to rise up and walk it out.

If you’ve ever felt like you aren’t who you used to be, or who you’re supposed to be, there is a way out.
Jim Burgen was a preacher’s kid who grew up loving church, until it felt like one day, he realized he was an adult who didn’t. He’d burned out and was full of questions. An encounter with C.S. Lewis’ Voyage of the Dawn Treader introduced him to Eustace, a little boy whose greed and hurt turned him into a dragon. He couldn’t un-dragon himself, no matter how hard he tried. Only one person could: the good lion, Aslan. That day, Burgen’s life changed forever.
With conversational, vulnerable, and oftentimes humorous language, Burgen takes us on a journey through the remarkable process of Jesus saving him from himself, and how that can be true for you, too. He wrestles with more-than-surface-level questions, like:
- Why don’t I like most churches?
- What does the bible really say about how we should interact with people Christian culture have labeled “other?”
- Where is God in difficult times?
- Is Jesus the only way you can “un-dragon” yourself?
Whether you’re trying to figure out this whole Jesus thing, or you’ve been in church all your life but you’re still full of questions, this approachable book is for you.

Somehow life has taught us poorly. We’re trained to think that the most significant people are star athletes, actors, and musicians–the ones we applaud, those whose autographs we seek, or those who have worldly fame.
But Swindoll teaches us that most often, the people really worth noting are those who turn from a ‘nobody’ into a ‘somebody’ but never receive credit. Fascinating Stories of Forgotten Lives reminds us of a core truth: success in God’s kingdom and in the church depends upon faithful people the public rarely knows.
The Old Testament contains numerous fascinating stories of forgotten lives–unsung heroes whose actions, sacrifices, or battles failed to ascribe them worldly applause. These great lives, however, reveal significant people whom God honors in the pages of His Word and, therefore, deserve our serious attention and emulation.
From the misfortunes of Esau to the bravery of Abigail, each of these unlikely heroes has four unique elements in common:
- A selfless sense of devotion
- A mission
- A love of harmony
- A contagious joy
Join Swindoll in this eighth volume of the bestselling Great Lives from God’s Word series as he examines little-remembered Bible characters and events, helping you discover biblical principles and practical applications for living so that you can be who you already are in God’s eyes–a person of true significance.

In¬†The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God–the eight “heart barriers” to faith:
- “Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot”
- “Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true”
- “Evolution explains life, so God isn’t needed”
- “God isn’t worthy of worship if he kills innocent children”
- “It’s offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God”
- “A loving God would never torture people in hell”
- “Church history is littered with oppression and violence”
- “I still have doubts, so I can’t be a Christian”
This bestselling book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

This book will show you how.
In his classic book Where Is God When It Hurts, author Philip Yancey gave us permission to doubt, reasons not to abandon faith, and practical ways to reach out to hurting people.
And now, thirty years after writing his first book, Yancey revisits our cry of “Why, God” in three places stunned into silence by the calamities that have devastated them.  At some point all of us will face the challenges to faith Yancey writes about and look for the comfort and hope he describes.
In The Question That Never Goes Away, you will find answers to questions like:
- Why did God allow this to happen?
- Why didn’t God protect us?
- Why doesn’t a good God stop this evil?
 
There are reasons to ask, once again, the question that never goes away: Where is God when we suffer? And Yancey, once again, leads us to find faith when it is most severely put to the test.

Bestselling author Gary ThomasThe faith God calls us to is far more than glowing positivism that shields us from life’s struggles. It is one that guides us into a deepening intimacy with the God who sustains us in the broad sweep of life.
Bestselling author Gary Thomas helps us sharpen our spiritual vision and fortify our commitment to Christ by examining ten disciplines God uses to forge a fire-tested faith. A biblical view of these disciplines can safeguard us from disillusionment when – not if – difficulties surface in our lives.
Sharing scriptural insights, the wisdom of Christians through the centuries, and cogent personal observations, Thomas explores the disciplines of: selflessness, waiting, suffering, persecution, social mercy, forgiveness, mourning, contentment, sacrifice, hope and fear.
As Thomas reminds us, faith is about something other than a smooth ride through this fallen world. Rather, authentic faith is shaped, tempered, and purified in the flames of struggle. This eye-opening look at what it means to be a true disciple of Jesus will encourage you, bolster your faith, and help you rise above shallow attachments to fix your heart on things of eternal worth.

Like millions of her millennial peers, Rachel Held Evans didn’t want to go to church anymore. The hypocrisy, the politics, the gargantuan building budgets, the scandals–to her, it was beginning to feel like church culture was too far removed from Jesus. Yet, despite her cynicism and misgivings, something kept drawing Evans back to church.
Evans found herself wanting to better understand the church and find her place within it, so she set out on a new adventure. Within the pages of Searching for Sunday, Evans catalogs her journey as she loves, leaves, and finds the church once again.  
Evans tells the story of her faith through the lens of seven sacraments of the Catholic church–baptism, confession, holy orders, communion, confirmation, the anointing of the sick, and marriage–to teach us the essential truths about what she’s learned along the way, including:
- Faith isn’t just meant to be believed, it’s meant to be lived and shared in community
- Christianity isn’t a kingdom for the worthy–it’s a kingdom for the hungry, the broken, and the imperfect
- The countless and beautiful ways that God shows up in the ordinary parts of our daily lives
Searching for Sunday will help you unpack the messiness of community, teaching us that by overcoming our cynicism, we can all find hope, grace, love, and, somewhere in between, church.

All his life, President Jimmy Carter has been a courageous exemplar of faith. Now he shares the lessons he learned. He writes, “The issue of faith arises in almost every area of human existence, so it is important to understand its multiple meanings. In this book, my primary goal is to explore the broader meaning of faith, its far-reaching effect on our lives, and its relationship to past, present, and future events in America and around the world. The religious aspects of faith are also covered, since this is how the word is most often used, and I have included a description of the ways my faith has guided and sustained me, as well as how it has challenged and driven me to seek a closer and better relationship with people and with God.”
Quoting eminent Protestant theologians, in Faith President Carter describes his belief in religious freedom, moral politics, and the place of prayer in his daily life. He examines faith’s many meanings, he describes how to accept it, live it, how to doubt and find faith again. This is a serious and moving reflection from one of America’s most admired and respected citizens. -

New York Times bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford reveals heartwarming, entertaining conversations between people and personalities who both agree and disagree about who Jesus is, his role throughout history, and his presence in our lives today.
For decades Kathie Lee has had deep conversations about her faith with anyone who is interested in talking about it. What she discovered early on is most people are very willing to talk about Jesus: atheists, agnostics, Scientologists, Jews, broken-hearted Catholics, confused Baptists, Pentecostals, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Hindus alike. 
While some of the people Kathie Lee has spoken with do not share her belief that Jesus is the Messiah—as prophesied for centuries by prophets in the Hebrew scriptures—they nonetheless have a universal fascination with Him. This singular man who lived more than two thousand years ago, and never traveled more than one hundred miles from where He was born, managed to change the entire world. Even the way we delineate history (BC/AD) comes from His short thirty-three years of life. 
In The Jesus I Know, Kathie Lee shares cherished conversations that she’s had with others who find Jesus to be an ancient historical figure who somehow continues to be an undeniably magnetic, relevant presence in the modern world. Those conversations include
- actors like Kristin Chenoweth and Cynthia Garrett, with stories of Craig Ferguson and Kevin Costner,
- newsmakers and news personalities like Kris Jenner, Megyn Kelly, Jason Kennedy, and Janice Dean,
- performers like Chynna Phillips Baldwin, Brian Welch, Jimmie Allen, and Jimmy Wayne,
- hitmakers like Louis York and David Pomeranz,
- as well as those coming from other faith traditions.
 
Using Kathie Lee’s favorite Scripture passages as scaffolding, these thought-provoking exchanges will bring His teachings to life before your very eyes.

The latest data from researcherThe main reason people don’t act like Jesus is because they don’t think like Jesus. Discover the seven core questions that Christians must be able to answer biblically in order to live a transformed life.
The latest data from researcher George Barna’s polls across America shows that we are confused by the issues that confront us today. We find ourselves wrestling with what is right and wrong. Some of us cut ethical corners and don’t even know it. We often base our actions on what feels right or keeps people happy rather than on what is best or true.
All because, Barna concludes, we lack an active, clear belief system based on solid, scriptural principles.
Now more than ever, we need a way of life that brings us clarity in chaos, peace in the problems, and boldness in the bad times. We need a new way of seeing–a biblical perspective that guides our every thought and action.
What is a biblical perspective on life? To put it simply, Barna says, it is a “way of dealing with the world so that we act like Jesus, twenty-four hours a day, because we think like Jesus. It’s like wearing a pair of eyeglasses that enable us to see things differently, to see things from God’s point of view, and to respond to these perceptions in the way He prescribes.”
Think Like Jesus:
- Uncovers the seven core beliefs of Christianity necessary for developing a strong Christian worldview
- Provides a firm explanation of why Christians believe what we believe
- Includes detailed statistics and polls on where Americans agree with the Bible on key topics
- Exposes causes of concern in modern Christianity through the misalignment of key beliefs
Would you like to simplify your life, shore up your moral foundations, and strengthen your Christian witness? Think Like Jesus can help you chart a path that will allow you to make a difference for eternity in your home, your job, your church, and your community.

Read moreIn war zones witnessing widespread conflict, what makes life at all worth living? When chaos becomes a way of life in places where religion and violence intersect, what do people hold on to? If religious belief is, as Christopher Hitchens argues, the cause of wars and genocide, then is faith the cure?
Dennis Covington pursued answers to these questions for years, traveling deep into places like Syria, Mexico, and the American South. Looking not for rigid doctrines, creeds, or beliefs — which, he says, can be contradictory, even dangerous — he sought something bigger and more fundamental: faith. It’s faith in goodness, kindness, and the humanity of the smallest moments that makes the most difficult times bearable.
The young bomb victim who offers a smile from his hospital bed, the grieving parent who shares a photograph, the joined hands of men who were previously mortal enemies, and Covington’s own family turmoil. These are some of the moments that leave him touching the beating heart of what it truly is to live.
Like Covington’s widely celebrated Salvation on Sand Mountain, Revelation is an intensely personal journey that goes to the edges of a world filled with violence and religious strife to find the enduring worth of living.

Jesus Culture founder and pastor Banning Liebscher reveals the three key attributes that will propel you into a life of divine purpose: holiness, courage, and faith.
You were made for more than a life of holy discontent–more than the frustrating sense of sitting on the sidelines of your own life’s purpose. From the beginning, Jesus has beckoned us out of passivity and into a high-stakes adventure with hearts fully alive, lives fully engaged, and the courage needed for both.
In The Three-Mile Walk audio Bible study, Liebscher draws from the biblical story of King Saul’s son Jonathan, who, after a treacherous three-mile hike, boldly stepped into battle and watched God work a stunning victory in the midst of impossible odds. From Jonathan’s story, we learn how to fully respond to our own calling.
In his power-packed memorable style, Liebscher offers fresh insight and instruction for answering your calling with a courageous “yes,” and setting out on the journey of a lifetime. You are meant to change the world. It’s going to be tough, surprising, and more fulfilling than you can imagine. You just need the courage to rise up and walk it out.

Because of the warm fuzzy ambiance and economic impact of Christmas, Dr. John MacArthur is convinced that we are missing the enormous impact of the reality behind the season. In his usual easy-to-read style, he takes us beyond the tinsel and the seasonal hype to offer us an encounter with the miracle and mystery of the birth of Christ.
- He leads us line by line through the familiar Christmas scriptures.
- He exposes common misconceptions about Jesus’ birth.
- He helps us to see Mary’s baby through the eyes of those who saw Him first.
- He refutes attempts to dismiss the biblical account of the virgin birth as just another myth.
“We dare not trivialize or sentimentalize the persons and events surrounding the birth of Christ,” Dr. MacArthur warns. “An authentic celebration of Christmas recognizes that the eternal, sovereign God came to earth as a human being to live a righteous life among His people and then to die as a perfect sacrifice to deliver from the wrath of God all who repent and believe.”
Let God inject new life and meaning into your celebration of the coming of Christ as you use this simple volume to review what the Bible says about his birth.
