He wanted people to know that the gospel was for everyone. All they had to do was come to the cross. What Happened at the Cross is a compilation of Mr. Graham’s life work. He explains the significance and meaning of the cross by sharing the gospel message, inviting sinners to walk with Jesus, the one true Savior who is willing and able to forgive them.

In May, we’re reading Angels, a book by Billy Graham.
Yes, angels are real. They are not the product of your imagination. An in-depth study on angels and the heavenly host, Billy Graham walks you through how the angelic armies work like an organization in God’s Kingdom, how they differ from man, Lucifer and fall, and much more.
Interest in angels and the supernatural aspects of God’s Kingdom is more heightened than ever. Even if you’ve read the latest book, seen the most recent TV show, or heard your grandmother’s deathbed story countless times, you are missing something important if you have not read Billy Graham’s in-depth biblical study of angels.
God’s invisible hosts are better organized than any of the armies of man–or Satan.
Angels “think, feel, will, and display emotions.”

In June, we’re discussing Handwriting on the Wall by Dr. David Jeremiah:
The book of Daniel offers some of the most vivid and descriptive portions of prophecy in all of God’s Word. Through the instruction of world-renowned Bible teacher Dr. Jeremiah, Daniel’s visions come alive like never before.
In The Handwriting on the Wall, Dr. Jeremiah uses his clear and approachable style to help readers:

See Daniel’s incredible accuracy in prophesying about events in human history that have already come true
Find comfort in God’s specific and powerful promises for the future
Place their trust in the reliability of God’s Word rather than the instability of today’s headlines
Be assured that evil is on a leash and God is in control
and much more!

For Christians of every generation, understanding the truth of biblical prophecy offers confidence and hope for the future. But that’s not all—to know the book of Daniel is to open a pathway for dynamic, faithful living today.

In July, we’re reading The Prayer Code by O.S. Hawkins. Do you want a richer, more robust prayer life? Your prayers are powerful! Learn how to pray with confidence, faith, and an awareness of the Holy Spirit as you draw from world-changing prayers from Scripture in this inspiring guide to a transformed spiritual life. The Prayer Code is the latest addition to O. S. Hawkins’s bestselling series that includes The Joshua Code and The Jesus Code.
David prayed for protection from his enemies. Jesus prayed for all believers. The early Church prayed for courage. The most powerful prayers of Scripture have one thing in common: they reflect the promises of God in His Word, promises that are available to you today, just as they were to people in the Bible.
In The Prayer Code, Hawkins explores biblical prayers to equip you to pray effectively for:

peace in times of change
courage to overcome your fears
healing for yourself and others

In August, we’re reading Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, by R. Albert Mohler, Jr. In Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, pastor and theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. reveals the unique power of Jesus’ parables for today’s readers, showing how they announce the kingdom, communicate both judgment and grace, and call every human heart toward transformation in the light of God’s love.
“He who has ears, let him hear…” The Prodigal Son. The Good Samaritan. The parable of the mustard seed. The stories Jesus told during his earthly ministry are packed with such memorable images and characters that they now permeate our culture’s popular imagination. But what if their familiarity has muted their powerful message, causing today’s readers to miss their ability to shock and transform?
In Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, Mohler unlocks the power of Jesus’ parables for readers today. Jesus perfected the art of telling parables–short stories with a surprising twist and an explosive message that confronted his listeners with surprising (and often uncomfortable) truths about the human heart and the kingdom of heaven. But two thousand years later, modern readers may not grasp the cultural and historical context that made these stories so compelling for Jesus’ original audience. Mohler brings Jesus’ stories to life, uncovering the context and allowing readers to hear these stories in all their shocking, paradigm-shifting power.
