60 Seconds to Greatness, by Bishop Eddie Long

2010-02-06T11:34:53Z

A celebrated bishop shows readers how to live a life of God-filled greatness and experience success-spiritually, personally, and financially

]]> Bishop Eddie L. Long, pastor of Atlanta's New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, challenges readers to prepare for the coming of God's promises by praying for and expecting prosperity. And, with his Strategic Life Plan, readers can create a blueprint for success in every area of life- work, family, finances, and self-fulfillment. They'll be prepared for the greatest gift of all: realization of God's plan.

Full of 60-second exercises, quizzes, and affirmations, Bishop Long's breakthrough book will challenge everything readers think they know about transforming their lives. Long shows how to take cues from inspiration Biblical figures-from the prophet Nehemiah's right mindset to Joseph's work ethic. And just as Jacob and Esther did, the reader can move from mediocrity to magnificence in God's eyes.

Since his installation, Bishop Eddie L. Long has seen Georgia's New Birth Missionary Baptist Church grow from 300 to 25,000 members. Founder of New Birth Christian Academy, Long serves on many community and academic boards.

DO Something!, by Miles McPherson

2010-02-06T11:28:49Z

Everyone wants their life to count. We all wish we could make a difference in a hurting world. The good news is that we can. Despite our own brokenness (and, in fact, because of it) each of us can be Jesus's hands and feet on Earth, reaching out to others in real and profound ways.

]]> With powerful true stories, illustrations from the life of Christ, and specific activities for readers to engage, DO Something! is a hopeful and practical book that shows how to live out faith in a way that improves people's lives. With transparency and humility, Miles McPherson shares his own shortcomings as a young pastor trying to connect with people in need. Stressing the importance of hurting with people before you can do something for them, McPherson takes readers through the 5 P's of making their lives count: preparation, purpose, pain, power, and passion. By putting into practice the principles found in this book, readers will experience spiritual fulfillment as they see that they can make a real difference in the lives of those around them.

Miles McPherson is a man radically transformed by God. Even after fulfilling his youthful dreams of a successful collegiate football career and playing in the NFL, Miles was spiritually empty and on a path of destruction in the form of cocaine use.

During his second season in the NFL, two of Miles' teammates, Sherman Smith and Ray Preston, told him about God's amazing love and grace. Finally, one early morning in 1984, Miles had his first encounter with the person of Jesus Christ and decided to follow Him.

The moment Miles relinquished control of his life, God's power was evident. Miles was delivered from his drug habit, experienced positive changes in his daily life and actions, and was reunited with his girlfriend, Debbie, who is now his wife.

God soon set Miles' feet on a new path: serving in ministry, learning theology, and preaching the Gospel. Miles had great dreams as a young man, but he never imagined the joy and fulfillment he would experience in sharing God's love with others.

One in a Million, by Priscilla Shirer

2010-02-06T10:47:14Z

COMING SOON: March 1, 2010

The Egyptians in Exodus 1 were intent on enslaving the Israelites, wearing them down so that God's chosen people would become disillusioned and not live up to their destiny. Of the original two million Israelites who received God's invitation to enter the Promised Land, only two actually entered it!

]]> Similarly, modern day Christians often hear and understand the promises of God each Sunday morning at church but then rarely choose to experience them in everyday life. In One in a Million, Bible teacher Priscilla Shirer invites us to change that pattern for good, living beyond our circumstances and expecting to see God move in miraculous ways day after day. Without a doubt, we can find and follow God's purpose for our journey. We can make it to the Promised Land!

Priscilla Shirer is a Bible teacher and conference speaker with a Master's degree in Biblical Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary. She is also the author of popular books including A Jewel in His Crown, He Speaks to Me, and Discerning the Voice of God. The daughter of well-known author Dr. Tony Evans, Priscilla is married to Jerry with whom she founded Going Beyond Ministries. They live with their three sons in Dallas, Texas.

Lady Jasmine, by Victoria Christopher Murray

2010-02-06T10:35:25Z

Juicy Jasmine Larson Bush is at it again -- battling her past in order to save her future. With her own lies, she nearly destroyed her marriage to Pastor Hosea Bush. Why, Jasmine was forced to reveal every secret she'd ever kept from her husband, right down to her real age, weight, and shoe size! She thought she had told Hosea everything.

But when Jasmine is blackmailed with a terrible truth from her past that she "forgot" to tell Hosea, more than just her marriage is in jeopardy.

]]> Surprisingly, her first instinct is to tell the truth. Jasmine knows, however, that this is one part of her life that can never be exposed. Determined to keep the life she fought so hard to save, Jasmine is willing to commit any sin -- even murder -- to leave her past behind her. No one can know the truth about the First Lady of City of Lights at Riverside Church. No one can know that beneath the veneer of a redeemed Christian wife, there lies a sinner -- especially not her trusting husband.
