A History of the Church

From Pentecost to the Present

By: James B. North,Don Umphrey

Church history books must choose either brevity or thoroughness. A History of the Church does an excellent job combining both. Although it has been used as a college textbook, it also has been used successfully in local churches and personal study of church history as well.

Beating Goliath

My Story of Football and Faith

By: Art Briles,Don Yaeger

Growing up in Rule, Texas, Art Briles learned at a young age the importance of hard work and faith from his parents. Soon that faith would be tested. On their way to see him play in a college football game, Briles' parents and aunt died in a car crash. This event shaped Briles into the man he is today. His father, Dennis, left him with a series of lessons. He taught his son that the world doesn't just hand you things, you have to earn them. And he taught him the influence that faith could have in his life. Briles put these lessons to work as a football coach, where he established his reputation for turning struggling teams into winners, from high school to the staff at Texas Tech to head coach at the University of Houston. Hired to coach Baylor in 2007, he was faced with a familiar task. Within three years, Briles led the Bears to their first bowl game in 15 years. Today, he instills those same lessons into his young players, helping them find a reason to excel. There are plenty of excuses for failure but Briles surrounds himself with people who are fearless when it comes to chasing success. That is one of the many lessons he imparts to his readers, with chapters that include: * God and the Teaching of Dennis Briles * Finding Your Passion * You Can Change Attitude, Not Talent * Passing in the Land of Earl Campbell * Everybody is a Captain Filled with dramatic football stories and lessons learned, this book will inspire and entertain.

12 Steps to a Closer Walk with God: The Workbook

By: Don Umphrey

Have you been: - Deceived by a lie from Satan like Adam and Eve? - In denial like David during his affair with Bathsheba? - In a pig pen like the lost son? - Letting fear dictate your actions like the children of Israel when they arrived at the Promised Land? - Sinking in a storm like Peter when he tried to walk on water? - Or having an even deeper experience like Jonah after he tried to run away from God? Walk in the shoes of these biblical characters and many, many more. ---------------------------------- This workbook does more than tell readers about the biblical basis of the steps to recovery. It involves readers in a study that takes them throughout the Bible while they put the 12 steps to work in their lives. It is an invaluable guide to Christian recovery. The premise of this workbook is that the 12 steps used by recovery groups take people from the slavery of addiction to the freedom of a God-centered life thr

The Meanest Man in Texas

A True Story Based on the Life of Clyde Thompson

By: Don Umphrey

A true story... The amazing and miraculous true story of Clyde Thompson. He killed two men when he was 17 years old. The year was 1928 and the place was rural west Texas. He was nearly lynched while awaiting trial and then was sent to death row. Thompson's killing streak didn't stop there. Nor did his desire to escape from prison. Prison officials finally gave him The Meanest Man in Texas moniker, and the prison chaplain said he was a man without a soul. Without hope, Thompson reached out for help. Then his life started to change.
