Ellen G. White

Words of Hope

Words of Hope presents the parables of Jesus in a fresh light, showing their application to Christian living today. In this devotional classic, Ellen G. White plumbs the depths of the best-loved teachings of Jesus, offering a deeply spiritual understanding of the parables of Christ as they apply to the life today. She provides practical applications in a way that touches the heart.

Words of Hope was written not by a dry historical scholar or a technical commentator, but by a messenger with a personal knowledge of the love our Redeemer has for humankind.

Ellen White $2.49, 10–$1.89, 100– $1.59, 1,000–$1.39 9780828028578 Paperback, 128 pages

Love Under Fire Sharing Edition Love Under Fire is an adaptation of From Here to Forever, a 1982 condensed edition of Ellen G. White’s classic volume, The Great Controversy. From Here to Forever included all the chapters of the original, using only the author’s words but shortening the account.

To enhance readability, Love Under Fire goes a step beyond this, using more modern expressions and sentence constructions in the portions written by White, as well as in the quotations she included from others and the index materials. Most of the Bible quotations come from the New King James Version.

All material was prepared by the Ellen G. White Estate.

Doctrine

Understanding Daniel and Revelation The 21st century might be dubbed “The Era of Uncertainty.” The prophecies of Daniel and Revelation provide answers for honest-hearted people seeking to understand the uncertainties of our time. These prophetic revelations are filled with hope for today, tomorrow, and forever.

These books are not just musty, historical documents filled with dates and facts. The more we study them, the more Christ will appear in their pages, coming close to us to help us in the problems and challenges we face in our own lives each day. The more we understand the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation, the better we will understand our place in Earth’s history and how to fill the role Jesus has for us in these last days.

Mark Finley $29.99 9780816366446 Hard cover, 416 pages

Understanding Daniel and Revelation is a comprehensive introduction to these two prophetic books, drawn from four decades of Mark Finley’s sermons. In it, you will be drawn preciously near to Jesus Christ—the Author and Center of all prophecy.

28 Ways to Spell Your Faith When last did you sense the joy of theology through personal Bible study?

The joy of theology is just that: joyous conversations with the ultimate Author of the Word, the One who would like to be discovered in His word.

This collection includes a wide range of authors, hailing from different parts of this globe. With the exception of the final chapter by Norman Gulley, all of these chapters have been published over the past years in Adventist World magazine. Women and men, theologians and non-theologians, young and old, and in between—they all share their journey with a particular biblical belief. As they spell out their personal faith, you may be challenged to rediscover or discover for the first time, a crucial turn in your road of faith.

Gerald Klingbeil $15.99 9780828028691 Paperback, 160 pages

As you read these engaging chapters focusing upon Adventist fundamental beliefs, you will discover not only spiritual nourishment, truth, and encouragement, but also joy—the joy of spending time with God’s personal message for humanity.

Prophecy’s Answer to Philosophy’s Confusion Our secular society is openly rethinking not only the relevance of religion, but the very existence of a God to worship. This disdain is not really a consequence of the scientific method, because great scientists of the past and present have found science to be complementary to their belief in God. What is happening? Has the Creator gone out of style? Have we reduced Him to a decorative piece in the mantle of our knowledge? Is a belief in God compatible with 21st century thinking?

Chris Holland $15.99 9780816366286 Paperback, 144 pages

This book gives us an answer that is surprisingly powerful, an answer that does not ignore history nor science, yet points to the reality of God in ways that withstand any scrutiny. One of the first disciples of Jesus invited his friend to meet the Master with the words: “Come and see” (John 1:46). This is the idea. Whether you are wrestling with the question of God’s existence or you have decided that God is merely a “god,” this book beckons, “Come and see.”

Through the Valley of the Shadow Statistics suggest the more people believe in the afterlife than they believe in God. This is why near-death experiences have been more and more used as arguments to support the idea of the immortality of the soul and thus promote the claims of spiritualism.

In this book, joining the poignant testimony of people who have undergone near-death experiences, an international team of scientists and philosophers analyze this phenomenon and reach a different conclusion.

In addition, a careful study of the Bible provides a spiritual guidance in that discussion. Through the Valley of the Shadow denounces the fallacy of some popular ideas and brings hope in our confrontation with the greatest enemy of humankind.

God? Really? Good news about the God I don’t believe in Defending God against the objections of science is much easier than defending Him against the damage believers themselves have inflicted on His reputation. There are interpretations of the Bible that portray God more like a violent psychopath than a loving God one would wish to exit. This book shares some of the author’s personal journey through some of the most difficult questions you can ask about the God of the Bible.

Harald Giesebrecht $15.99 9781925044928 Paperback, 154 pages

Hearing the Way The Exodus was a dominant and defining story in the Jewish nation, life and faith—and it became one the foundational ways in which His first followers understood Jesus and, in turn, how the New Testament writers explained who Jesus was and what He did. So, this story also becomes a key for our understanding of Jesus, the early church and the New Testament, and for what it means for us to follow Jesus today.

Each chapter includes “Growing Hearing Communities” questions for reading and sharing in small groups or for personal reflection.

I Have a Future

There is hope for you. You may have questions about the injustice of God; about life after death; about the reality of the resurrection; or about the fires of hell. These questions are natural, but in the Bible we have some good news. God loves us, and He is preparing a home for us. Looking rationally at the evidence presented in the Holy Scripture, we can see clearly the truth that Jesus Christ rose from the grave—and because He rose, we can too— if we will trust Him and accept his miracle-working power in our lives.

A Simple Guide to Paul’s Epistles Do the writings of the Apostle Paul ever cause you to scratch your head?

Do you ever hear people explain Paul’s theology in a way that doesn’t fit with the rest of Scripture? And have you ever wished for an informal verseby-verse guide that walks you through Paul’s epistles from start to finish?

If so, then keep this book handy whenever you read the New Testament.

You might use it as a basic reference: look up a passage that puzzles you to find a clear explanation. Or you might read through it as a devotional alongside your Bible.

Few writers have influenced Christian beliefs more than the Apostle Paul.

Listen as God’s voice speaks through these timeless letters.

Sabbath School Daniel - 1Q 2020 BBS

Daniel makes it clear that God is the Lord of history, nations, and individuals.

From the ashes of exile to the glory of resurrection, the Prince of Peace stands sovereign over the kingdoms of the world and watches over His people. Many Christians feel overwhelmed at the thought of a deep dive into the Old Testament book of Daniel. The ancient past, distant future, cryptic symbols, and complex prophecies can easily become a tangled web of misunderstanding and confusion. However, no matter how complex certain portions of the book may seem, one truth emerges loud and clear: Jesus wins.

Elias Brasil de Souza $14.99 9780816365142 Paperback, 128 pages

Studying the book of Daniel is an exciting adventure, requiring a great deal of wisdom and understanding. Indeed, Daniel himself prays for understanding. This book, divided into thirteen chapters, starts by introducing issues related to understanding Daniel, such as literary structure and historical context. The subsequent chapters move through the narrative and prophetic sections, highlighting Daniel’s application to our modern lives. Start with a prayer for wisdom and understanding, then let Daniel speak and present the truth as it is in Jesus.

How to Interpret Scripture - 2Q 2020 BBS From the beginning, Adventists have considered themselves people of the Book. Yet biblical literacy seems to be waning. Many people no longer read and study the Bible. Others advance strange teachings, solemnly claiming these teachings come from Scripture. The stakes are high. If we approach the Bible with wrong presuppositions and poor methodologies, we will arrive at distorted conclusions. Our methods of interpretation affect our message and mission.

In How to Interpret Scripture, you’ll:

Making Friends for God - 3Q 2020 BBS “Our confession of His faithfulness is heaven’s chosen agency for revealing Christ to the world.” —Ellen G.

In Making Friends for God, you’ll travel in the footsteps of Jesus and discover the universal principles of sharing our faith.

Evangelism isn’t just for TV preachers and the ultra-religious. In fact, simply sharing about our personal experience with God is the essence of a living faith. When we come to Christ and are changed by His grace, charmed by His love, and redeemed by His power, we cannot be silent.

Heritage

Prophets in Conflict Known for his provocative approach to serious topics, George Knight’s latest book will not disappoint. Far from it, Prophets in Conflict not only challenges Adventist thinking and provides food for thought, but will stimulate vigorous discussion.

Here are some of the questions explored:

George R. Knight 9780816366705 Paperback

• Are Ellen White and Joseph Smith two flavors of the same thing?

• Why are Adventists prone to the “Mormon Temptation”?

• What is the “Mormon Temptation” and how does it relate to prophetic authority?

• How did Ellen White interpret her own writings?

• What did she see as the purpose of her gift?

• Who dreamed up the idea of compilations?

• Can compilations make White say what she never said or believed?

• How can her writings be applied in a healthy (or unhealthy) manner?

Science

Genesis and Science All worldviews are based on one or more assumptions that are based on faith. We may assume that there is a God or that there is no god, that life arose with or without intelligent design, or that the universe came into being by itself or that God made it. We cannot prove any of these things, and that is why assumptions are always the basis of our worldview.

The problem with assumptions is that they tend to stand in the way of asking questions. Questions that could alter our assumptions. Yet scientists who are willing to research the challenging questions are testing some of the bedrock assumptions undergirding the long held naturalistic theories of the evolutionary community.

Leonard Brand $4.99 9780816365166 Paperback, 144 pages

Accumulating research, even in geology, is providing more evidence in favor of a biblical worldview, and the theory of biological macroevolution is facing deadly new challenges. Are you ready to challenge your worldview?

Secrets Uncovered “When a vertebrate paleontologist says ‘a fossil site has fossil skulls all over the place,’ that usually means he searched all day and found three.”

—Leonard Brand The life of a paleontologist is filled with stories. Whether it’s transporting whale fossils in the middle of the night to avoid black market fossil bandits in Peru, or having rattlesnakes crawl through your feet while eating breakfast in a wilderness camp, life is never boring.

Every fossil has a story behind it—a story of how it came to be formed and preserved. The search for these stories keeps these scientists going back year after year.

Leonard Brand $19.99 9780816365203 Paperback, 224 pages

Contemporary Issues

Adventists and Military Service The Seventh-day Adventist Church has a long and rich history of being a Church that affirms peace, seeks reconciliation, and encourages a noncombatant stance. In a time when wars are war-like conflicts are on the global rise, there is an urgent need to reflect more fully on the role of Christ’s followers as conscientious agents of peace and as conscientious objectors to all forms of violence. By candidly looking at the biblical evidence in the Old and New Testaments and by learning from Church history and our own history, the authors of this book address the spirit of the early Christian Church and of Jesus Christ on this issue.

Various Authors $18.99 9788472087095 Paperback, 228 pages

The book has grown out of an initiative of the Biblical Research Committee of what is now the Inter-European Division. The authors reflect the international composition of the Church. It contains the most complete list of all official Church documents on war and military service that were published by the Church from its beginning to the present, as well as a comprehensive list of major publications and resources that were written

by Seventh-day Adventists. It will be the definite reference work on this subject for years to come.

In this book we share the agony and thrill of being a pastoral family for over 35 years. Our hope is that our experience encourages pastoral couples to continually strengthen their commitment to each other, their family, and their church.

Whether you are a pastor or a local church leader; may this book bring you great insights about your own ministerial family.

Following the Apostles’ Vision From small and unlikely beginnings in Jerusalem, the message of Jesus seemed to explode across the Roman world within only a few decades.

It was powered by the Holy Spirit and the passion of those first men and women who had spent time with Jesus, but this remarkable success also came with self-sacrificing determination, hard work, and innovative mission strategies.

Re-reading the pastoral letters of Paul—written to the respective churches within the first ten years of their planting—offers valuable insights into the focus, energy, and methods of Paul and his ministry teams. And it must challenge our vision and practice of church, ministry, and mission today.

13 Weeks to Joy

You suffer, have suffered, and will suffer. You know and love other suffering people. God allows the enemy to create chaos, but the sin and the suffering that convulse our aching planet don’t reflect the perfect will and heart of God any more than a messy child’s room reflects the will of a tidy parent.

Because of the mess and the pain, you can’t truly experience joy through suffering without supernatural help and divine logic.

Jennifer Jill Schwirzer $19.99 9780816365746 Paperback, 224 pages

The first steps in learning how to experience joy are understanding God well enough to trust Him and trusting Him enough to give Him access to your heart. Although God won’t make us perfectly happy here on the earth now, He does promise the gift of joy in the midst of our sorrows.

Walk with the author through the difficult feelings of shame, loneliness, and trauma to growth, belonging, freedom, gratitude, love, and awe—all building blocks for true, personal joy in Jesus.

Of Fleeces and Faith Have you ever heard someone say that they “put out a fleece” to get God’s opinion on a decision they faced? Have you done it yourself? Maybe you want to know if a relationship was destined for the long haul, whether a job in a new city is the right move, or if God even loves you.

Is putting out a fleece a sign of great faith in God’s willingness to communicate and His ability to work miracles, or is it an immature and desperate plea from a place of spiritual weakness? Is it better to have spiritual doubts at the foot of the Cross or to watch from a safe distance until our faith is rock solid?

Fathers

It is in the nature of men to love all kinds of achievements and competitions that would bring us recognition. Choosing a new target every day, setting a new goal for the next, it all breeds satisfaction and helps us overcome feelings of inadequacy. It strengthens our sense of self and our identity. It is this constant pursuit that gives meaning to a man’s life, driving abundance and happiness along the way.

Then, when a man becomes a father, he enters a new stage of life with the inescapable excitement of an athlete competing for the first time in the Olympics. No other competition throughout his entire life will test his limits more than this one, and he steps into the arena not knowing that this ultramarathon will change him irreversibly.

The Earthy Canvas Vegan Cookbook In The Earthy Canvas Vegan Cookbook Dr. Fay Kazzi finds inspiration for the creation of delicious, healthy recipes from her Middle Eastern heritage, education, and career. These recipes are designed to maximize flavor and nutrient density while minimizing calories and use of processed foods. She has affectionately coined this process as a scientific art. Dr. Kazzi believes that an integral part of the commitment to a vegan, plant-based lifestyle is the ability to make healthy food that tastes as good as it can look, using mostly whole foods like grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables.

Fay Kazzi $29.99 9780816365982 Paperback, 208 pages

As a health professional and an artist at heart, food photography eventually found its way into her career path and she was able to marry these two worlds in this beautifully orchestrated and easy to follow resource. All the photographs of the recipes were styled and shot by Dr. Kazzi herself, which she feels is a personal and intimate touch. This richly illustrated cookbook celebrates clean vegan eating in a unique and approachable way taking simple plant-based recipes to an elevated level of palatability and presentation, perfect to share with your friends and family.

Through the Seasons with God “I have been a Christian for most of my life, but it was only when I started nurturing the little plot of land, which is now a lovely garden, that I became acquainted with my Savior.”

In the beginning, God Himself planted a garden. There in Eden, the Creator of heaven and earth lingered with His creation. Together they walked and talked and dreamed. God still gently brushes our cheek with a cool breeze, embraces us with warm sunshine, quiets us with freshly fallen snow, serenades us through humming cicadas and warbling birds, and demonstrates His wisdom and love in every miracle of creation.

Olga Valdivia $17.99 9780816365760 Paperback, 160 pages

Through the beautifully illustrated color pages of this keepsake devotional journal, you, too, can walk and talk and dream with God. Feel His touch on your face as author Olga Valdivia steps quietly into her garden and invites you to reflect with her upon God’s faithfulness through the seasons.

Enough Most people, especially women, know firsthand the battle of feeling not enough. Or too much. And sometimes both at the same time. The battle to feel good enough is real and constant. There are days when the “not enoughness” threatens to rip out your heart, discourage you, and cause you to lose hope. Give up. Surrender.

The truth is that God is enough. Join author Tamyra Horst as she leads you on a journey to discover God in your not enoughness. Find out who defines what “enough” is, why the enemy wants to keep us feeling inadequate, how accepting the lie affects our relationships, what to do when you mess up, where to find peace with yourself, and how to speak the truth to other women.

Tamyra Horst $15.99 9780816366224 Paperback, 160 pages

Experience the joy and peace and hope Jesus brings, and learn to accept that you are chosen, wanted, and accepted. Find your purpose and passion, and embrace the role God designed just for you. Because through Him, you are enough.

Keep on Keeping On With Jesus The greatest problem in people’s lives that I have observed over the years is discouragement—people giving up! Life is difficult. You will lose loved ones; you will have setbacks and disappointments; friends will let you down.

We live in a difficult world, and we are moving along toward the end of it.

The Bible says, “He who endures to the end shall be saved (Mathew 24:13, NKJV).”

In Keep On Keeping On, Pastor Jim Gilley once again points us to Jesus, the one who never gives up on us. Jesus is the only One who can bring you through the difficulties of this world. He will keep His promise to stand beside you, no matter what you’re facing. But you’ve got to hang in there and trust Him. You’ve got to “keep on keeping on.”

In 1844 a couple of sisters went to bed. . .

Tomorrow we’ll be in our heavenly mansion!” “I’m not going to sleep at all,” eleven-year-old Susan whispered. “What if Jesus comes during the night?

I don’t want to miss anything.” “I won’t sleep either!” Belinda agreed. “Poke me once in a while so I stay awake.”

Jesus did not come in 1844, but His promise is still true.

Unconditional, always patient, selfless, and sincere. That is how the Bible defines love. Self-centered, demanding, unstable, and irritable. That is how our children experience love on the street, on TV, and even at the schoolyard.

How can we teach them to pursue Jesus at a young age? How do we persuade them to always choose Love (seriously and with the capital letter) even though sometimes it means going against the tide?

The goal of these stories is to help children understand that Love is a learning process of constant growth­—a path from and to God where our lives can reach eternal dimensions.

Daring to Ask for More Sharing Edition Wherever you find yourself in your spiritual journey, whether you are a seeker, a churchgoer, or just testing the waters of belief in the God of the Bible, this book will inspire and challenge you to a life of faith and purpose.

Here’s what others are saying about Daring to Ask for More: “I have read many books on prayer, but none has touched my heart like this one--so much so that I couldn’t put it down! It is inspirational as well as practical and instructional. It exudes “prayer power” that will change your life.” —Alice Scarbrough, prayer group leader

Melody Mason $3.49, 10–$2.89, 100–$2.29, 1,000–$1.79 9780816366088 Paperback, 96 pages

“Melody Mason is a true intercessor. She has become a much-needed voice, calling us to an intensification of our faith-prayer journey with Jesus.

This book has radically changed my own prayer life, and I pray it does the same for you.” —Dwight K. Nelson, Senior Pastor, Pioneer Memorial Church, Andrews University

God’s Truth Can Change Your Life Searching for life’s meaning is universal. Every culture in every era has searched for truth: truth that answers life’s big questions; truth that provides significance for daily living; truth that is certain and beyond doubt.

But truth has come on hard times. Have you heard somebody say, “You have your truth and I have mine”? God’s Truth sets forth the idea that there is truth not only in the material world but also in the social and spiritual realms; truth that is foundational to personal and social health; truth that transforms lives.

George Knight $2.49 9780816364985 Paperback, 128 pages

Bestselling author George R. Knight explains the Bible’s major themes in a manner that is both clear and brief. As such, it not only provides a concise introduction to the teachings of history’s most influential and best-selling book, but it is also an invitation to further study. After all, there is nothing more important than understanding God’s ultimate truth about the world and our lives.

Death Defeated (Signs Special) The evening of Christ’s death on the cross looked to outsiders like a defeat for the early Christian church. Their so-called Messiah who had healed so many, even raising some from the dead, was now gone. But sunrise on Sunday morning found an empty tomb. Sin and death had been defeated.

Jesus’ sacrifice had paid the price for our sins.

This colorful, 16-page special issue of Signs of the Times contains text taken from Humble Hero, a White Estate adaptation of Ellen White’s book Desire of Ages. Use this fully illustrated booklet to share the good news that Christ’s resurrection promises all of us eternal life!

Jesus’ Return (Signs Special) Even a secular audience recognizes that something is very wrong in the world around them.

Hurricanes, fires, tornadoes, the natural world seems to be coming apart.

All decency seems to be gone. People have no patience for each other anymore. All we can do is fight to the death over things that didn’t use to divide us. There are no answers to these complex problems. Is there any hope for the future?

The Bible predicted all this would happen—and more. It also gives us hope for the future, the soon-return of Jesus. But what does the Bible really say about this event and when it would happen?

Signs Magazine $0.69, 100–$0.59, 1000–$0.53, 5000–$0.49 643330047491 Paperback, 32 pages

Expect a paradigm shift in faith and prayer!

Melody Mason $18.99 9780816391332 Paperback, 272 pages

Daring to Ask for More will challenge you to recognize the unlimited possibilities that are within your grasp if you will only pray in faith.

Burst the Bubble (Sal de la Burbuja) The purpose of being a disciple is not only to proclaim the good news, the word of salvation, but also to demonstrate the love of God to people who are in need. We cannot come out of the darkness and simply bask in His marvelous light; we need to go back into the darkness and make a difference. We are chosen by God to be “salt” and “light.”

Wherever we are in the world—individually or collectively as the Adventist Church body—the surrounding environs must be different, transformed by our faithful presence amongst them.

Sung K. Kwon $15.99 9780816391530 Paperback, 160 pages

We must make the shift from just going to a church to being a church in the world around us. We must pray for God’s intervention in our own lives, listen to people’s struggles and challenges, and look for opportunities in the neighborhoods and communities that surround us to serve and demonstrate God’s love. Only then will we witness real change—changes in lives and changes in our communities.

Difficult Words from Jesus (Dichos Difíciles de Jesús) Each statement of Jesus is a gem of thought that reveals the will of God. The Christian church exists and is sustained only by the word of Jesus.

But some of His statements are difficult to understand. This book offers clear and brief explanations of each of the Master’s statements that have intrigued Christians for generations. For example, what does He mean when He says:

Ángel Hernández $13.99 9780816391363 Paperback, 128 pages

• “Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”

• “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

• “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” • “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.

These sayings and many others are interpreted clearly in this book.

Discipleship Handbook (Manual de Discipulado) The discipleship journey is full of pitfalls and snares that threaten to lead us away from the narrow path that leads to heaven. Therefore, even after we are baptized, it is imperative that we continue to grow into active and mature disciples of Christ. The Discipleship Handbook will benefit anyone seeking such an experience with Jesus. It may be used for personal study or in Sabbath schools, prayer meetings, small groups, or one-on-one settings.

Jim Howard $11.99, 32–$9.99, 96– $7.99 9780828028370 Hard cover, 368 pages

It contains everything needed for a six-month, Bible-based discipleship plan for Seventh-day Adventist churches and their members. The Discipleship Handbook was developed to ensure that the most essential areas of discipleship are covered. The devotional life, personal witnessing, church life, Christian lifestyle, and evangelism each receive special emphasis.

Victory Overcomes the World (La fe que vence al mundo) Are you happy? Do you live the life you want? Or is your life an almost unbearable burden? Life can be very difficult, but it can also be a vibrant reality, a happy adventure, full of challenges and gratitude. It all depends on how we look at it and how we experience it. Seen with the eyes of faith, life is beautiful, not because faith makes us imagine things, but quite the opposite, because it shows us the deep meaning of our existence. This sense is God’s plan for every human creature that lives on this planet.

Phenomena helps to know that plan. To be happy. To live hopefully.

Eliezer Graterol $15.99 9780816391721 Paperback, 128 pages

With this book you can know what faith is, how you can develop it in your life, what wonders you can discover with it, and, above all, you will have the hope of eternal life in Christ in your heart.

Everything Is Possible (Todo es posible) What do we do when human resources and power are not enough to save a life? What happens when the soul sinks into the abyss of despair without anything to cling to? What do we do when our problems escalate and there is no solution in sight?

In an intimate and warm style, this book presents real cases in which defeat gave way to victory and the impossible became possible. Everything is Possible will transform your life.

Faith for Sharing (Fe para compartir) Personal testimony was Jesus’ preferred method of sharing His faith. The Holy Scriptures record extraordinary examples of the Master sharing His testimony with individuals, who in turn shared that gospel with many others.

A converted soul has the potential to lead thousands of people to the same message of transformation.

Christ is our model, and every believer has a duty to learn His methods and cooperate with Him and to represent Him as His ambassador on this earth.

This book is intended to instruct pastors and laity in the art of preaching and giving biblical studies, so that the gospel may be presented in a powerful way and there will be a harvest of souls as never imagined.

Learning to Love (Amar se Aprende) If we want to give and receive love, we must devote more time to learning about love. It is necessary to study, reflect, learn to love and be loved.

Learning to Love reveals your attachment style, changes your life script, and transforms your mind. Love your fellow man and influence future generations.

As Light Lingers (Mientras Permanezca la Luz) Jesus waits patiently for us to meet with Him, to seek Him in His Word. The Bible is living, powerful, and alive! It can speak to our heart and soul and our needs today. The devil uses every possible method to keep us away from reading the Bible, whether through apathy, busyness, doubt, or tiredness.

Keeping our Bibles closed is his number one strategy to weaken the lives of Christians today.

Readers will find encouragement, advice, and practical strategies in this book. Discover how basking in the power of God’s Word will make you want to linger with God, because time with Him is so sweet.

Secrets Revealed (Secretos Revelados) We live in a time of dramatic events and drastic changes. Unlike past centuries where life was slow, everything nowadays is about speed, and our lives are constantly going against the tide.

Principles for Christian Leaders (Principios para LĂ­deres Cristianos) Principles for Christian Leaders is a wide-ranging collection of material gathered from the inspired writings of Ellen G. White on many aspects of Christian leadership. The thirteen segments of this book contain principles that are applicable for every line of work in which men and women may engage. As we seek for wisdom to know how to lead well, we have the assurance that God is teaching, leading, and guiding His people.

Amid the challenges that leaders deal with each day, we would do well to remember that the only safety for any one of us is in walking humbly with God, going where the Master leads the way. With our eyes on Him, our confidence can be found in following His footsteps.

Sermons About Grace (Preciosa Gracia: Serie de Sermones Sobre la Gracia) In the deepest depths of the human heart, we know that God demands perfection. We know from Scripture that no one is perfect, but few know the message of hope that has also been given to us in the gospel. Jesus lived a perfect life to give us, the imperfect, the possibility of appearing before the Father as if we had never sinned. This message that amazes everyone is that of precious grace.
