Our Story of Faith – How Water of Life Was Built
$10.00
Water of Life’s start was simple but miraculous. It was just God and us, but mostly God. He made something out of nothing. Pastor Dan Carroll wanted to be a missionary and truly expected the church to fail so he could go overseas. But people kept coming, God kept working. We put out chairs, sang songs, preached the Word, loved our neighbors, built buildings, and kept growing. But land and buildings are never the story. Faith is always the story. And people are the story. Still, God uses land and buildings to build faith and to touch people, and God wanted Water of Life to touch more people in bigger ways. We stepped up in faith, then watched God unfold miracle after miracle and change life after life. This is the Water of Life story, and it really has just begun…

Women Of The Bible Speak
$25.99The women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
