Have you ever been in that chapter of your life where everything that could possibly go wrong does so you just want to curse God and die or you question if God even really exists? What would you do if you simply wanted to live the blessed life of a devoted Christian, to excel in school, to make your family proud, to find true love and live happily ever after yet everything came crashing down when evil interrupted? In the '80s, Street was a lost soul and once a devoted Christian teenage boy living in Jamaica; he backslid after a series of devastating life-changing events over the years led him to doubt and to create this bizarre test game in certain situations to have God or the devil prove their existence to him. The devil constantly did. He lost his faith and resorted to dancing to fill that void by forming a break dance group called the Street Boys. They became popular, and he became content. But it didn't last. With evil and trouble constantly tormenting him, the Street Boys eventually transitioned into a ruthless street gang to defend themselves against their rivals and enemies. But amidst all the street fights and mayhem that consumed him, he one day found solace-love in a Christian girl, which eventually led him back to Christ. Happy ending, you might think, but far from it! The twists, turns, and shockers that accompanied his new relationship with her led to more mayhem, bloodshed, and heartbreak-and even worse, an ending that no one ever saw coming or could have even predicted. This story is based on actual events.
When he fell from a darkened stage in November 1996, Kirk Franklin could easily have been killed. That ten-foot plunge might have ended the career of one of America's most exciting young prodigies. But thanks to his dramatic recovery, the fall added not only a new dimension to his story but it brought Kirk Franklin to the attention of millions who otherwise might never have heard the name. Today Kirk Franklin is bigger than ever. His recordings have topped the charts, selling more copies in less time than any gospel musician in history. He has won every award gospel music has to offer but his own success is the last thing on his mind. This is the story of a young man from the poor side of town. He was taunted and teased as a child, but his faith and his remarkable musical talent helped him overcome the odds. In these pages Kirk Franklin reveals the real source of his strength. "What motivates me," he says, "is the knowledge that God has redeemed me from the pain and the hurts and the sin of my past and given me a new joy I can't even explain. It's not just for show," he says. "It's the truth, and that's what I want to express."
Would you put your life as you knew it on the line for a loved one, or leave them to face their own judgment for a wrong they committed? You pulled it off. But just when you thought it was all over and you were the savior of the day, all hell broke loose as the tables turned, and you were now on the run and being hunted in the worst possible way. Street remained a loyal teenage church boy, but made one drastic decision out of loyalty that led him straight into the most hellish experience and being hunted by everyone and even the unimaginable. A story of survival. A supernatural story of unbelief versus faith. A story of determination. A story of love, and the price he had to pay. This is the sequel to Street's incredible journey with mind-blowing situations and consequences that you pray you will never find yourself in. But he did. This is a story that no one would ever tell because most wouldn't believe. Rule 1: Don't ever fall in love again until your heart can handle it. Rule 2. Don't ever enter a dance competition again. Rule 3. No more street brawls. Rule 4. Spend more time at church. Rule 5. Never travel alone after dark, but if you do, never, ever look her in the eyes, if you should encounter her. Street broke all five rules that came with severe consequences as he became: The Hunted. Based on actual events.

#1 New York Times bestseller with more than 11 million copies sold! When 4-year-old Colton Burpo emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven, his family doesn’t know what to believe. Heaven is For Real details what Colton saw and his family’s journey towards accepting their young son had visited the afterlife. “Do you remember the hospital, Colton?” Sonja said. “Yes, mommy, I remember,” he said. “That’s where the angels sang to me.” Colton told his parents he left his body during an emergency surgery–and proved that claim by describing exactly what his parents were doing in another part of the hospital during his operation. He talked of visiting heaven and described events that happened before he was born and how he spoke with family members he’d never met. Colton also astonished his parents with descriptions and obscure details about heaven that matched the Bible exactly, even though he had not yet learned to read. With disarming innocence and the plainspoken boldness of a child, Colton recounts his visit to heaven, describing: Meeting long-departed family members Jesus, the angels, how “really, really big” God is, and how much God loves us How Jesus called Todd, Colton’s father, to be a pastor The Battle of Armageddon Retold by his father, but using Colton’s uniquely simple words, Heaven Is for Real offers a glimpse of the world that awaits us, where as Colton says, “Nobody is old and nobody wears glasses.” Heaven Is for Real will forever change the way you think of eternity, offering the chance to see, and believe, like a child. Praise for Heaven is for Real: “A beautifully written glimpse into heaven that will encourage those who doubt and thrill those who believe.” —Ron Hall, coauthor of Same Kind of Different as Me
“Church is boring.” “It’s irrelevant.” “It’s full of hypocrites.” You’ve heard the excuses—now learn the real reasons men and boys are fleeing churches of every kind, all over the world, and what we can do about it. Women comprise more than 60% of the adults in a typical worship service in America. Some overseas congregations report ten women for every man in attendance. Men are less likely to lead, volunteer, and give in the church. They pray less, share their faith less, and read the Bible less. In Why Men Hate Going to Church, David Murrow identifies the barriers keeping many men from going to church, explains why it’s so hard to motivate the men who do attend, and also takes you inside several fast-growing congregations that are winning the hearts of men and boys. In this completely revised, reorganized, and rewritten edition of the classic book, with more than 70 percent new content, explore topics like: The increase and decrease in male church attendance during the past 500 years Why Christian churches are more feminine even though men are often still the leaders The difference between the type of God men and women like to worship The lack of volunteering and ministry opportunities for men The benefits men get from attending church regularly Men need the church but, more importantly, the church needs men. The presence of enthusiastic men is one of the surest predictors of church health, growth, giving, and expansion. Why Men Hate Going to Church does not call men back to church—it calls the church back to men.
Offers wisdom and guidance for Christians to strengthen their faith, discussing how God speaks to individuals, how Jesus' death on the cross paid for sins, who the Holy Spirit is, and more.
A comprehensive guide to help you determine why your child left the Church and how to bring them back.
