Raising Awesome Kids in Troubled Times 5 reviews
Sam Laing
Discipleship Publications International, 1994
Great book about raising kids.
This is definitely a must read for anyone who wants to raise their kids on Christian values. Sam does a great job of relating to the common mom and dad in the 21st century. I wold recommend this book to anyone who feels like the world is the one that is raising their kids. We need to get back to being the ones who mold and develop our children.

Genesis, Science & History: A Faith-Building Look at the Opening Chapters of Genesis2 reviews
Douglas Jacoby
Discipleship Publications International, 2004
Yes
This book by Doug Jacoby is really good. I don't know why the previous reviewer gave it a low rating and still enjoyed the book. At any rate, this book will inspire your faith. You will learn to approach and understand Genesis in a different light. Doug Jacoby is not dogmatic at all. He is open and presents his thoughts clearly. He even gives you his e-mail address if you have any ...

Prepared To Answer: Confronting Religious Doctrines With Biblical Teaching1 review
Discipleship Publications International, 1998
Prepared To Answer
Doctrine is important to anyone intent on pleasing God and helping others to please God, but we must maintain the proper balance. Religion without doctrine is like a human body without a skeletal system. Try to have the right life without doctrine, and you will end up with some sort of mushy moralism that will neither help people nor please God. On the other hand, become a doctrinal expert and ...

A very practical book of devotionals for kids
We have 2 kids (9 and 11) and have had daily bible story time with each of them since they were infants. Tom Zeigler's book is one of the best books for new and creative ideas for devotionals that are both fun and practical. We often use this book when looking for a new devotional idea for our kids. I highly recommend this book. It includes practical ideas, fun activities, and ways to get the ...

Some Sat in Darkness: Spiritual Recovery from Addiction and Codependency1 review
Declan Joyce, Brenda Leatherwood, ...
Discipleship Publications International, 1997
Some Sat in Darkness
Contrary to some popular misconceptions that persist even to this day, the bottom line in CR (chemical recovery) ministry is very intense discipling. I believe the CR ministry is the most outward-focused ministry in the church: Over three thousand people in New York have been baptized by people that have been helped by the CR ministry.
The chemical recovery ministry is not a benevolent ...

Friends and Lovers: Marriage as God Designed It
This book is so easy to read and caputured and kept my attention the whole time. Whether you believe in God or not, this book has great advice and practicals to use. There were times when I laughed out loud because the situation described was pin point accurate and there were times when I was stopped dead because the situation described hit home and I was immediately convicted. I truly ...

The Victory of Surrender7 reviews
Gordon Ferguson
Discipleship Publications International, 2003
Radical Surrender Requires Radical Reading
Gordon Ferguson writes about a topic that few disciples really desire to talk about: total surrender. Of course the Bible makes it clear that total and complete surrender is the only way to eternal life (Luke 14:25-35). But how does one truly surrender to Jesus? How do we give up everything for the kingdom of God?
This book seeks to answer those questions. Ferguson writes with conviction ...

Mourning Journey: Spiritual Guidance for Facing Grief, Death and Loss1 review
Dennis Young
Discipleship Publications International, 2004
Great Guidance and Help
The book is a thorough step by step map for the most difficult times we face in our lives. The author does an excellent job of highlighting the key areas of the emotional and practical events of death's impact as well as the experience of pre-death, sudden or terminal. I deal with death, and the planning thereof, in my financial planning practice. This gave me much needed insight as to how people ...

Jesus - The Same: The Compelling Christ Yesterday, Today and Forever3 reviews
Charles-Edward Jefferson
Discipleship Publications International, 1997
An inspirational look into the character of Jesus Christ
Jesus the Same is an incredible study of the character of Jesus that challenges all Christians to imitate his example. Originally the chapters were individual sermons preached in the early 1900's and released under the title The Character of Jesus. However, the message never grows old. I plan on reading it again. It is filled with insight and references to Scripture. This is a must read ...

The Killer Within: An African Look at Disease, Sin and Keeping Yourself Saved1 review
Mike Taliaferro
Discipleship Publications International, 1997
A Sobering Look at the Destruction Caused by Sinning
Mike Taliaferro's books are unique. He has a unique speaking style as well as a unique writing style. I greatly enjoy his ability to take disease and use Scripture to show how Satan often uses the same attacks against the believer.
In this book, Taliaferro uses diseases found on the continent of Africa (where he ministered for several years in South Africa) and shows how they picture the ...

The Lion Never Sleeps: Preparing Those You Love for Satan's Attacks4 reviews
Mike Taliaferro
Discipleship Publications International, 2003
WOWWWWW
As a new Christian, I 'devoured' this book in one sitting and I am not a reader from cover to cover.....the gruelling comparisons which he uses are things you will never forget or never should forget when dealing with Satanic attacks. GREAT BOOK, it made me realize what we are up against and how much Satan attacks Christians......a must read even for the non-reader!

Gloria E. Baird, Kay S. McKean
Discipleship Publications International, 2003
An excellent guide for the Christian wife
Having failed in two previous marriages, I needed a book such as this to guide me. I found this book very practical and thought-provoking. The two authors are very inspirational women and I appreciate the guidance they have provided to me. It is a book to keep around and refer to often.

Lonama's Map (Portals of Tessalindria series) (Portals of Tessalindria series)4 reviews
F. W. Faller
Discipleship Publications International, 2004
Another excellent book
Superb. I can't really can't put more words into it. There is a lot in the book, and the amazing part of the book is in it's complex simplicity. (follow that one). You can try and figure out the mysteries of the book from the beginning, or simply let it wash over you.
