When people are big and God
is small

Truths we confess by R C
Sproul $40.00
Experienced Bible teacher and pastor R. C. Sproul explains,
"From the early days of the Apostles' Creed...the church's commitment is shown
to the command of our Lord not only to believe in our hearts, but also to
profess with our lips what it is that we believe. Christianity is a religion
with content. Its truths are central to the life and practice of the church."
Each new generation faces the challenge of keeping its doctrine
pure. In order to protect the church from distortions of the Word, it must
confess the faith carefully and consistently. In this new work, the first volume
of Sproul's three-part series on the Westminster Confession of Faith, Sproul
discusses the first eight chapters. Topics discussed include Scripture, the
Trinity, Creation, Providence, the Fall, God's Covenant with Humanity, and
Christ as Mediator.

Biblical leadership by Ken
Collier and Matt Williams $24.00
There are many types of leaders: leaders in the business world,
in government, in the home, and in the local church. Sorry to say, many times
leadership has been totally contrary to what the Bible teaches. Many leaders are
focused on what they can get from their positions of authority, rather than on
what they can give to the works in which they are involved. While some view it
as a tool for popularity and power, leadership is a privilege. Leadership also
requires responsibility. We need biblical leaders who are people of integrity
and humility—leaders who are willing to be different.
