New! Courtship Conversations

Eight ideas for great dates that will help grow and guide your relationship.

Story Behind the Book

“I wrote I Kissed Dating Goodbye to challenge singles to drop the worldly approach to serial dating and reconsider the way they pursued romance in light of God’s Word. Since then, I’ve received letters asking questions like, So, what comes between friendship and marriage? and, How can you know when you are ready for marriage? Boy Meets Girl answers those questions. Now as a happily married man I can look back on my courtship with Shannon and see from personal experience that God is faithful. If you trust Him enough to wait on romance in dating, He will lovingly guide you as you pursue it in courtship…right to that wonderful moment when you kneel together at the altar.” — Joshua Harris]]> 27398 3.57 2520 418 696703 1590521471 9781590521472 34 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177357375m/696703.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/696703.Not_Even_a_Hint_Guarding_Your_Heart_Against_Lust 3.87 207 27398 3.57 2520 418 199275 1590523652 9781590523650 22 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172619420m/199275.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199275.Stop_Dating_the_Church_Fall_in_Love_with_the_Family_of_God 4.01 102 you dating the church, or are you committed?

Are You Dating the Church?

We are a generation of consumers, independent and critical. We attend church, but we don't want to settle down and truly invest ourselves. We're not into commitment — we only want to date the church.

Is this what God wants for us?

Stop Dating the Church reminds us that faith was never meant to be a solo pursuit. The church is the place God grows us, encourages us, and uses us best. Loving Jesus Christ involves a passionate commitment to His church — around the world and down the street.

We can't be apathetic. It's time to fall in love with the family of God.

Story Behind the Book

Like all my books, this one is very closely tied to my own journey. I’ve been a church-dater. And I’ve learned just how good it is to get serious about the church. I want to see my generation get a hold of God’s purpose and plan for the local church, too. The same month this book is released I’ll become the senior pastor of my church. This awesome responsibility is being passed on to me by my mentor, C. J. Mahaney, a pastor who has faithfully served for over 26 years. So this book is marking a very important transition in my life. The church isn’t some other generation’s responsibility—it isn’t somebody else’s business. I have to take responsibility. I have to be passionate and committed to it. Through the pages of this book, I’m calling my generation to do the same.]]> 27398 3.57 2520 418 995085 1590521366 9781590521366 3 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180066909m/995085.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/995085.I_Kissed_Dating_Goodbye_Study_Guide 2.94 17 I Kissed Dating Goodbye, Joshua Harris exposes the "Seven Habits of Highly Defective Dating" and offers a realistic outline of how to have a biblical vision of marriage. Harris contends that one must begin with a new attitude, viewing love, purity, and singleness from God's perspective rather than thinking that love and romance are to be enjoyed "solely for recreation." In such well-named chapters as "Guarding Your Heart" and "What Matters at Fifty," Harris encourages the reader to look at one's character rather than reveling in infatuation, to regard love as a truly selfless, biblical act rather than a feeling. He refutes the concept that we are victims of "falling in love" (that it is beyond our control), saying that "God wants us to seek guidance from scriptural truth, not feeling. Smart love looks beyond personal desires and the gratification of the moment. It looks at the big picture: serving others and glorifying God." Before you roll your eyes, moaning that this sounds terribly unromantic, know that Harris does a superb job of couching his convictions in the sincere belief that if we are purposeful in our singleness and date with integrity, a fulfilled marriage awaits us--in God's timing. --Jill Heatherly]]> 27398 3.57 2520 418 6593482 1 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6593482-sex-is-not-the-problem-lust-is 4.00 5 27398 3.57 2520 418 313089 1590522532 9781590522530 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173670817m/313089.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/313089.Not_Even_a_Hint_A_Study_Guide_for_Men 4.40 5 27398 3.57 2520 418 73420 4.13 71 5 199277 1590523547 9781590523544 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172619421m/199277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199277.Not_Even_a_Hint_A_Study_Guide_for_Women 3.50 4 Not Even a Hint made the statement that lust is a human problem and that Jesus can free anyone from its power.

Story Behind the Book

After Josh gave a message on lust entitled "Lust: Destroy It or Be Destroyed" (which was originally prepared for an all-male audience), he was surprised by the widespread request from women to be allowed to listen to a tape of the message. They heard the guys talking about the message and wanted it for themselves. And not because they wanted to "understand men," but because they too struggled with lust. "Ladies deal with this, too," they told him. "We often feel like something is wrong with us and so we never bring it out in the open, which only makes it worse."

So after much prayer and counsel, he decided to make his book for both sexes. Though Not Even a Hint is written for men and women, he strongly believe’s that the topic of lust is not appropriate for men and women to discuss. Women should find other women they can work together with to fight the sin of lust, which is why we’ve created separate study guides for men and women to take you further on the journey to holiness.]]> 27398 3.57 2520 418 73420 4.13 71 5 116170 3.52 82 22 199273 1590526104 9781590526101 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172619420m/199273.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199273.Sex_Is_Not_the_Problem_Lust_Is_A_Study_Guide_for_Men 3.33 3 Celebrate Purity

Story Behind the Book

“I was preparing a message on lust when I realized that the book I wanted to consult hadn’t been written. That book would make it clear that only Jesus Christ can free us from the hopeless treadmill of shame and guilt that so many well-intentioned people end up on. It would instill a love for holiness and a hatred for sin without dragging the reader’s imagination through the gutter. And it would be for both men and women, because I’ve learned that lust isn’t just a guy problem—it’s a human problem.”

With startling transparency, Joshua Harris shares how we can rediscover the relevance and power of Christian truth. This is book shows a young man who rose quickly to success in the Christian evangelical world before he realized his spirituality lacked a foundation—it rested more on tradition and morality than on an informed knowledge of God.
 
For the indifferent or spiritually numb, Harris's humorous and engaging reflections on Christian beliefs show that orthodoxy isn't just for scholars—it is for anyone who longs to know the living Jesus Christ. As Harris writes, "I've come to learn that theology matters. It matters not because we want to impress people, but because what we know about God shapes the way we think and live. Theology matters because if we get it wrong then our whole life will be wrong."
 
Whether you are just exploring Christianity or you are a veteran believer finding yourself overly familiar and cold-hearted, Dug Down Deep will help you rediscover the timeless truths of Scripture. As Harris challenges you to root your faith and feelings about God in the person, work, and words of Jesus, he answers questions such as:
 
What is God like and how does he speak to me?What difference does it make that Jesus was both human and divine?How does Jesus's death on the cross pay for my sins?Who is the Holy Spirit and how does he work in my life? 
With grace and wisdom, Harris will inspire you to revel in the truth that has captured his own mind and heart. He will ask you to dig deep into a faith so solid you can build your life on it. He will point you to something to believe in again.]]> 27398 3.57 2520 418 3080447 3794523083 9783794523085 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3080447.Klinische_Labordiagnostik_in_der_Tiermedizin 0.0 0 27398 3.57 2520 418 6091409 3894379960 9783894379964 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6091409.Fr_sche_Prinzen_und_der_Frust_mit_der_Lust 0.0 0 27398 3.57 2520 418 199276 092346364X 9780923463649 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172619420m/199276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199276.Rules_for_Young_Friends 0.0 0 116171 4.00 4 3 27398 3.57 2520 418 5382132 1593910215 9781593910211 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5382132.Authentic_Faith_Where_God_and_Life_Meet 0.0 0 30954 4.05 967 202 19991 4.17 78 23 27398 3.57 2520 418 59901 3.71 1910 336 78476 4.13 254 67 198487 3.75 8 0 223696 4.20 41 5 578482 4.33 3 0 6869653 1596447893 9781596447899 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6869653-humility 0.0 0 84251 4.26 284 71 27398 3.57 2520 418 12007 3.31 42 15
