For years Corrie ten Boom crisscrossed the globe sleeping in thousands of different beds and living out of suitcases—all to fulfill her God-given mission to tell people everywhere that Jesus Christ is reality, that He lives, that He is Victor. This remarkable woman served time in German concentration camps during World War II for the “crime” of hiding persecuted Jews and survived to tell the story in her best-selling book The Hiding Place. Her brush with death lent a new meaning to her life. In her own words: “My life had been given back as a gift . . . for a purpose.” After her ...

Do you sometimes feel that you are wandering in a wilderness of grief, confusion, and faltering faith? If so, you are not alone. Like the lost children of Israel, many have searched for a way through a personal wilderness. But just as those same Israelites followed God's leading to the Promised Land, you too can find the promised new life in the Spirit. Jamie Buckingham made such a journey - not only figuratively but literally. During a time of intense personal struggle, he traveled to the Sinai. There he found restoration and, in the solitude of a wilderness night, he learned ancient Bible truths that would alter his life forever.

Christians are under attack from a deadly but invisible enemy. God has given us orders to be armed for battle in spiritual warfare. As we are witnessing in the world today, Satan has mounted a massive attack against Christians and the church. As a result there is a great resurgence of interest in spiritual warfare. Christians of all persuasions must realize they do not have to be pushed around by the devil. Jesus Christ has given us authority, not only to cast out demons, but to bash in the gates of hell.

What are we to do when things don’t go the way we want, when the rug is pulled out from under us, when something terrible happens? How are we to react? Jamie shares what the prophet Isaiah says we are to do when the winds of adversity blow hard. We are to lengthen the cords to our tents and strengthen our stakes. Like the ancient Bedouins did, we are to make our tents flexible in the harsh environment, otherwise we just might be blown away. How do we lengthen our cords and strengthen our stakes? We lean into God, praise him and trust him. There’s a tendency in stormy circumstances to ...

How do you respond when you receive criticism from your spouse or your employer? Does criticism emotionally devastate you? Jamie Buckingham takes the risk of exposing his own struggles and inadequacies to help you deal with criticism. Learn how to receive criticism without fear by replacing your defense mechanisms with honesty, love, forgiveness, and a sense of humor. So, are you coping with criticism or are you just reacting to it?

The Bible states: “As you go, preach this message: The kingdom of heaven is near. Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give” (Matthew 10:7-8). This is a command that is given to all followers of Jesus Christ. We hear a lot about going out and preaching, about healing and to a lesser degree, driving out demons. But what about raising the dead? Jesus’ words are right there. We are to “raise the dead.” But how do we as Christians go about doing that? As a believer we can never say that there are some things ...

Here is the dramatic chronicle of the men and women who comprise the Jungle Aviation and Radio Service (JAARS), the flying arm of the famous Wycliffe Bible Translators. Viewed from a distance, they live a life of color and adventure, but however dramatic and colorful the job of these pilots may seem, it is basically a rigorous, lonely, and thankless task.

God loves you. And if you will let him, he will not only direct your path, but he will give you power to live. That’s what this book is all about: power for living. Let God give you power, not only to live, but to live abundantly.

Have you ever found yourself in a pit, emotionally, financially, or spiritually? In a way only he can teach, Jamie Buckingham relates the pit experiences of Joseph from the audiobook of Genesis to our own “pits” of today. Joseph found himself in two very different kinds of pits in his life: once in the desert when he angered his brothers, and again in Egypt, when he was punished for doing the right things in the eyes of God.

Jamie shares what we as Christians are to do when it turns out that God's plans for our life are different from our hopes or our dreams. What does the Bible say about facing reality? What do the scriptures tell us about trials and tribulations that we all experience? What happens when things go wrong? How do we overcome the great disappointments in life? Jamie's unique ability to tell a story that touches our deepest wounds, comes from his personal experiences, his own disappointments and his faith that God is a loving, kind and giving God. This message will touch your spirit and heal your deepest hurts and disappointments. Spoken to a church following the death of their beloved pastor's wife, Jamie reveals scriptural truths that prove, despite our disappointments or sense that our prayers are unanswered, God has a better plan than we could have ever hoped for ourselves.

What is it really like to be inside the Kingdom of God? Is everyone just lounging around all day, leisurely chatting? No hard work, all relaxation? What Jamie Buckingham describes in this booklet is probably far different from your own vision of what being in God's Kingdom is really all about or should be all about. Jamie answers the question so many Christians posed to him in the course of his ministry: "If we have inherited the Promised Land, then why am I constantly back here in the wilderness?" In other words, why is my life still so hard even though I have been a follower of Christ for...

Do you want to hear from God, but you have trouble discerning His voice in your life? Do you want to obey the commands of God, but you don’t have the power to do so on a daily basis? Do you want to be able to stand in the Last Days, but you don’t know if you have what it takes? In this booklet, taken directly from one of his sermons, Jamie Buckingham provides answers to these questions and more. Using Hebrews 10 as his text, Jamie addresses several essential principles that determine our capacity to hear God, obey Him, and live according to His perfect plan and purpose.

It is God's purpose and plan for us all to grow old and to go through physical changes. But it is not God's purpose for us to grow old and stop serving Him. Everything changes because our God is a God of change. There is nothing stationary about God. He is always moving and progressing forward and, as Christians, we are part of something God is doing, regardless of our age or physical condition. So regardless of how old you are or how you feel physically, God still has something for you to do for His kingdom.

God has many ways of teaching us. Jesus taught by example. Men looked at how he lived, and decided to walk that way also. He also taught by precept, speaking directly to people, in a way we might call teaching today. But his favorite way of teaching was through the use of the parable. He loved to tell stories—stories with spiritual meanings. "In the fall of 1987," Jamie said, "I visited Israel with a camera crew. We had obtained permission from the Israeli government to set up cameras at ten of the sites where Jesus told his best-known parables.

This book contains two teachings on Pentecost by Jamie Buckingham. He discusses the known ancient Jewish feast still referred to as Pentecost and what happened during that time in Jerusalem shortly after the resurrection and ascension of Jesus. Jamie goes through the scriptures where Jesus promises the Holy Spirit would come after his departure, and how the disciples and many others received him, as told in the Book of Acts, as they waited in the upper room in Jerusalem. The best part is, the Holy Spirit, who had been released in the world back then, is still available to believers today. ...

God is not calling to our intellects. He is calling to our hearts. He is calling to that deep inner place where we are, to where we will become his people. And when we become his people, then he becomes Lord of all. When that happens, then no matter what he does, it is within the realm of his love and his kindness and his mercy and his grace. We have a God who is so great that he will work through us to bring his miracles and to bring his healing. Because it's God who is in control, and we trust only in him.

This is Jamie Buckingham's testimony in which he begins with the premise that there is much more to our Christian experience than what first meets the eye. Our lives are like placid lakes which are deeply polluted. We have customarily pushed the pain of unhappy experiences beneath the surface where it stays quite alive in the subconscious mind. If we follow Jesus, the Holy Spirit will lead us to people and circumstances that will bring our sin to the surface where it can be confessed and forgiven.
