Biography
"Why am I here?" It's an inevitable question, one accompanied by a restless, nagging feeling that you should be getting more out of life or putting more into it. The search for something more -- something beyond your own self -- begins when your spirit cries out for its Maker and refuses to be satisfied with anything less. At that point, how do you go about finding God? How does an ordinary person gain intimacy with Him?
Beyond Our Selves tells Catherine Marshall's spiritual adventure as she searched for such answers on her quest for a meaningful life, a practical faith, and a closer relationship with God. She shares significant moments of her life, using deeply inspiring thoughts and offering guidance on topics such as forgiveness, suffering, miracles, unanswered prayer, and healing. Both inspiring and practical, this book has touched more than two million people around the world, challenging them to stretch their beliefs, deepen their faith, and revitalize their purpose. It will do the same for you as you search for greater meaning in your life.

Church Education
If you think bioethics is just for doctors and scientists, think again. Bioethics touches our everyday lives in so many ways. We ask questions like
How should I care for my aging parents?
Is stem cell research OK or not?
How can my church help a person with a chronic illness?
When's the right time to remove a loved one from life support?
Author Ruth Groenhout, selected as the 2009-2010 Calvin College Worldview Lecturer, presents these issues from the Bible's perspective using accessible, easy-to-understand language. Discussion questions in each chapter make this book an excellent choice for group study or personal reflection.
