I001 Handbook of Church Discipline		~~$14.99~~	$11.25
Jay E. Adams
This is a handbook for pastors, elders, and all Christians who want to see how Scripture presents the process of discipline that should operate in the Christian community. It was written in response to an urgent need: "As I think of the homes that have been hopelessly broken, the estrangements that have permanently resulted, and the misery that has been unnecessarily caused by the failure of churches to practice church discipline, or to practice it biblically, my heart aches. Even more tragically, as I consider the ruins of many congregations torn by schismatic and fractious persons who have been allowed to wreck havoc with Christ's flock, and the sickness of many others weakened by the infectious toxin of unrepentant sin that runs through congregational arteries, I am deeply moved." In order to help church leaders deal with the sorts of problems that require the church to respond with discipline, the author has developed the book around the five steps of corrective discipline found especially in Matthew 18:15-17. Because there is not merely one kind or one stage of discipline, church leaders must learn how to discern. And once the right discernment has been made, then the right action can follow. This is a simple and very readable little handbook. the influence it can and should have on the church is, however, quite profound. 120 pages

I002 Place of Authority in Christ's Church		~~$10.00~~	$8.00
Jay E. Adams
In our day authority has largely disappeared from society. Many flaunt their permissive views at any who assert authorityeven legitimate authority! This rejection of authority is not only a matter of how the world acts, such rejection also permeates the thinking of many Christians. Many (perhaps most) of the problems that the church faces today stem from this attitude toward the authority of Jesus Christ invested in His church. What can be done about the situation? How may this be done in a biblical manner? Who should be involved in doing it? The church will continue to disregard this very important matter to its peril. Here is a treatment of the question that clearly shows Gods way out of the dilemma. 81 pages

Jay E. Adams
Why are there so many problems in the church today? How is it that people constantly roam from congregation to congregation? What is behind the many splits in churchesand what can be done about them?

The case is made for practical care and discipline in the local church. The place of leadership is examined biblically. Shepherdly concerns are set forth to enable those who are in charge of a flock of Gods sheep to shepherd them as the Great Shepherd desires. A book for sheep and shepherds alike. 89 pages

A clear and vigorous challenge to preachers and laymen to remain persistent in sharing the gospel with unsaved people. The book is split in two parts: 1. The promise of duty.

What following Christ supposes and implies. In which way is Christ to be followed? This is a classic explanation of the Puritan approach to evangelism that is also an encouragement for anyone explaining the gospel to someone else.

I010 Cross and Christian Ministry: Leadership Lessons from 1 Corinthians		~~$12.99~~	$10.40
D.A Carson
Is the cross truly the center of your ministry? Today we commonly see images of the cross adorning churches, dangling from necklaces, and gleaming from lapels. Yet the image that is so sanitized for us today was grotesque and abhorrent to those living in the first century. It was a symbol of evil, torture, and shame. It is this realistic and horrifying view of the cross that should call us to Christian ministry and compel us to share the Good News of Christ's triumph over death. Through his exposition of 1 Corinthians, D. A. Carson presents a comprehensive view of what the death of Christ means in preaching and ministering to God's people. He confronts the issues of factionalism, servant-leadership, shaping "world" Christians, and the source of knowledge in order to help Christian leaders learn principles for dynamic, cross-centered worship. D. A. Carson (Ph.D., University of Cambridge) is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. He is the author or editor of over forty books, including The King James Version Debate; How Long, O Lord?; A Call to Spiritual Reformation; and Justification and Variegated Nomism. Author Information: D. A. Carson (Ph.D., University of Cambridge) is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.

McGowan Highland Theological College, Scotland "A Reformed view of the various nuances of worship its place in the Bible, the elements which give it legitimacy, the personal and affective aspects of worshipping God, as well as its place in the history of the church has been lacking in the literature. . . It is fitting tribute to the legacy of Jim Boice, and a timely call to the people of God everywhere." Rev. Dr. Iain D.

I072 To Be or Not To Be a Church Member		~~$8.95~~	$7.25
Wayne Mack
To Be or Not To Be A Church Member?, that is the Question! Should you commit yourself to membership in a local church? Isn't just being a Christian enough? Anyhow, where does the Bible say that we have to become members of a church ... why can't I just attend and get involved? These are very important questions that demand an answer, especially in the "casual age" that we're living in. Dr. Wayne Mack brings his years of experience as a Bible teacher, pastor and counselor to this very controversial topic. His answers are straightforward and clear: YES! You must become a church member if you're to be obedient to Our Lord Jesus Christ and the clear teaching of the New Testament. NO! Being a "lone wolf" Christian is not enough; you must join with a local body of believers in a church that teaches sound doctrine. NO! You cannot just "attend and get involved" without the benefit of church membership; you must have church elders that can guide you, and that you must submit to. Dr. Mack thus argues conclusively and clearly for church membership. This is a book all Christians should read, whether members or non-members of a local church - and one that every pastor should hand out to his congregation!

I073 Life In the Fathers House		~~$12.99~~	$10.40
Wayne, Dave Mack, Swavely
In our individualistic society, church membership, faithful church attendance, and active service in the body of Christ are often considered optional, even among professing Christians.

The church is God's idea, essential to the spiritual health of any believer. Wayne Mack and David Swavely clearly introduce us to the meaning of church membership, the traits of a good church, and how we are to function as parts of the body. Written for lay men and women, this book includes practical discussions of church leadership, male and female roles, worship, spiritual gifts, confrontation, unity and prayer.

An alarming number of churches in America are either shrinking or stagnant. Every week, scores of congregations close their doors.

Brian Edwards
Brian H. Edwards seeks to bring the reader into contact with revival and to introduce it to those who may never have read much on the subject. This book is not a clinical analysis of revival, nor just an assessment of Gods reviving work in the past.

I079 This Little Church Stayed Home		~~$14.99~~	$11.99
Gary Gilley
Many churches, riding the faddish waves of our times, have gone 'to market', but not all. Some churches are trying to 'stay home', that is, remain firmly grounded in the Scriptures. Still, the pressures mount, the temptations are repackaged, and the schemes of the world become more and more persuasive. In This Little Church Stayed Home, Dr. Gilley explores the manifold temptations of conservative churches to sell out to modern trends and innovations, including the present temptation towards mystical theology. Churches toying with 'new measures' will be challenged to remain true to the historic doctrines of the Christian faith and to remain faithful to God's chosen means of converting sinners to himself: the good news of Jesus Christ. Pastors, seminary students, church leaders, and Christians who want God's Word to be paramount in their lives will find This Little Church Stayed Home a timely message to a Christian subculture fixated on marketing the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ.
