New Titles in Emmaus Library – Issue 3, June 2010
Baldwin,
Joyce G. The message of Genesis 12 – 50
[222.11 BAL]
“Shows the vivid narratives of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and
Joseph speaking to us today, despite their great antiquity. Above all, they highlight God’s ways of
dealing with ordinary men and women. God
takes the initiative in drawing us to himself. His purpose is not local, but
world-wide; the rich scope of God’s love is tellingly evident. Yet, in fulfilling
his great plan in history, he words individually – with people who are fearful
like Abraham or twisty like Jacob. Their often painful experiences enabled them
(and help us) to know the specific character of the God they worshipped. The narratives, Joyce Baldwin points out, are
an epitome of the gospel.”
Anderson,
Neil T. The Bondage Breaker [235.4
AND]
The
Bible warns repeatedly that all Christians will struggle against Satan and his
spiritual forces of darkness. While the spiritual conflict that churns within
you is very real, the answers are just as tangible. The book reveals the whys
and hows of spiritual warfare and exposes Satan’s
battle for your mind. It also shares the
powerful truth that will break even the most stubborn habits or private sins.”
Anderson,
Neil T. Victory over the Darkness [253 AND]
“The
powers of darkness attack us daily…but you can have the power to conquer them
by knowing who you are in Christ. Learn how to realise the power of your
identity in Christ; free yourself from the burdens of your past; stand against
the spiritual forces of this world; win the battle for your mind; become the
spiritual person you want to be; discover the truth about God’s view of you.”
Anderson,
Neil T. Purity under pressure [241.66 AND]
“Should
I or shouldn’t I? Everyone else is, so
why not? He says he loves me. She can’t believe I’m still a virgin. What if I’ve messed up? In this book, you’ll find out the difference
between being friends, dating, and having a relationship. You’ll see how the
physical stuff fits in. And you’ll get answer s to the questions you’re
asking: What is real love? How can you
keep a good relationship from going bade? What does God say about sex? How far
is too far? What if you’re trapped? Can you ever be free? Can you ever “start over?” “
Tan, Siang-Yang. Rest : experiencing God's peace in a restless world [248.4 TAN]
“Diagnoses
what ails us and provide thoroughly practical steps to help us respond to
Jesus’ invitation.”
Willard,
Dallas. The Spirit of the Discipline
[248.4 WIL]
“…presents
a way of living that enables ordinary men and women to enjoy the fruit of the
Christian life. Reveals how the key to self-transformation resides in the
practice of the spiritual disciplines, and how their practice affirms human
life to the fullest.”
“Brings
into sharp focus the key issues and essential facts you need to know about
homosexuality – with clear, concise answers to the controversial questions many
are asking, such as: is a person born homosexual, or is it a choice? Should
same-sex marriages be legalised? What
are some of the popular myths about homosexuality? Is it possible for
homosexuals to change? How should I respond when someone says, Ï’m gay”?.”
Farrel, Bill.
Men are like waffles, women are
like spaghetti : understanding and delighting in your
differences [306.8 FAR]
Men
process life like waffles. They think and act by moving from box to box. They enter a box, size up the single problem,
and formulate a solution. Women process life like a plate of spaghetti. Each
issue is like an individual noodle that touches every other noodle on the
plate. They find it natural to multitask. In this innovative and fun approach
to the differences between men and women, relationship experts Bill and Pam
provide humorous stories, easy-to-understand examples, and clear directions to
help you achieve harmony in your marriage.
Discover how to really connect when communicating with each other, keep
the sizzle in your sex life; experience greater closeness in your day-to-day
lives; turn irritations and conflict into positive responses; nourish each
other’s dreams and establish goals. From
raising children to divvying up household chores, Bill and Pam reveal practical
ways you and your mate can be supportive of each other and create a dynamic
marriage.”

while remaining faithful to the Bible. Includes interest boxes which describe
and illustrate in detail such topics as the jewellery worn, the lamps used, the way corn was gathered, the construction of the temples

Family [248.4
GOD]

DVD
“No
one needs to prove to Christians that we are watching the gradual death of an
essential element of civilization: the family. We are constantly exposed in the
media to divorce, sexual infidelity, homosexuality, male chauvinism, and
women’s liberation. We often see husbands and wives fight over who has control over their lives, careers, finances, and even
children. In such circumstances, how can anyone save their marriage
relationship? Here, the author examines
what Scripture says about the spiritual transformation that will benefit your
marriage relationship and bring about deep contentment and a sense of purpose.”
