“No Other Gods”
Idol worship may seem like ancient history, but the modern-day version---from family and finances to soccer and day-care---can compete with God's rightful place in our lives. Minter explores what happens when good desires become objects of worship---and shows you how to exchange everyday gods for the one true God. |

“Lord, Change Me!”
If you are tired of praying for others around you to change with little or no results, this is the study for you. “Lord, Change Me” will take you on a journey that will change your life. Surprising things happen when we pray, “Lord, Change Me…don’t change my husband, don’t change my children, don’t change my pastor, change me. "Lord, Change Me!" outlines seven methods of real, inside-out change as well as ways to check to be sure it is God who is doing the changing. |
