Opening the Windows of Your Soul

Opening the Windows of Your Soul

$22.95eBook: $9.99

Have we forgotten how to pray? Have we forgotten the purpose of prayer?
There is a huge need to rediscover prayer—to rediscover the genius of the greatest template ever presented to mankind: the Lord’s Prayer. Why? Because Jesus is the ultimate teacher, who brings us back to the basics and coaches us in praying the Lord’s will—not ours.
This book will encourage the reader to confidently pray God’s will, not theirs. Meditating on the Lord’s Prayer will lead the reader from a frustrating exercise in wish fulfillment to faith in the Lord’s sovereignty that God does what is best. Prayer as a means to instant gratification or a pleading for a cause will yield to prayer as an expression of partnership with the Lord, providing a calm sense of spiritual security. Those who pray will be secure in the knowledge that the Lord’s will is being done.

James Cantelon’s reaffirming of the power of the Lord’s Prayer is informed by more than fifty years of Christian ministry, researching the scriptures, and ministering to the needy and spiritually insecure. His perspective is informed by four decades of praying with various and foreign cultures (Israel, many African nations, and India).

Theology for Non-theologians

Theology for Non-theologians

$49.89eBook: $49.40

How can I know God exists? Are there different gods? Are there religions that don't have a god at all? What does God mean to me in everyday life?

Throughout his 50-year ministry, James Cantelon has fielded questions like these about the nature of God and the relationship between God and believers and non-believers alike. They are deep and good questions, and to help people understand God he felt compelled to write a book that discusses theology in a step-by-step and accessible way.

Here is theology as you have seldom seen it-warm, informal, even humorous-but always respectful and above all true to the Holy Scripture. In Theology for Non-Theologians, Cantelon concentrates on God and His word; the nature, existence and works of God; and God's revelation of himself in the Bible. James Cantelon has accomplished the near-impossible, making theology engaging, understandable and important in modern-day life.

So he writes a letter every week to Jess and Kate, sharing family stories and lessons he’s learned in life, including tough subjects like: why people, divorce, guilt and selfishness, sexuality, understanding God, growing up, making decisions, falling in love, and myriad other topics that concern preadolescent children.

When God Stood Up

When God Stood Up

$10 - $34

"The book puts HIV/AIDS into terrifying perspective. Jim and Kathy Cantelon are the face of God's love to so many who are so desperate."
--Deborah Grey, MP (ret'd).

"As Jim narrates his accelerated response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic, it reminds one of the image G.K. Chesterton captured of St. Francis: always running.' Within a matter of weeks, the author catapults out of Vancouver to the Durban colloquium, to hospitals and church events across the sub-Sahara-you sometimes look for a page to catch your breath!

Come to think of it, with the awesome destruction of human life described here, what could be mode appropriate? When God Stood Up carries a sense of that which it issues a call for: breathless haste."
--John & Ruth Kerr, Trans-Africa Theological College, Kitwe, Zambia

"Posturing God as standing up sends readers a signal: beware. Coddled for years by an image of a benign and permissive deity, Cantelon gives a yank on our leash of grace. Human tragedy, he reminds us, isn't just unfortunate-it's the stuff of life that strikes at the very heart of faith, a fait he asserts that should neither be smug nor comfortable. This God of justice makes it clear that those who call themselves by his name are to do no less than embrace justice."
--Brian Stiller, President, Tyndale University & Seminary, Toronto

"This is more than the story of the calling of a man to a god-sized mission. It is an informative, unfolding drama of perhaps the most critical issue of our time-AIDS in Africa. As Jim has cast and recast his vision, people all over the world have been caught and reeled in to unexpected roles, in response to the pandemic. My husband and I are in that number. Be warned as you read, you too may be stirred to action!"
--Moira Brown, Co-host, 100 Huntley Street, CTS-TV
