Signs of Life is pleased to welcome the Vision of You Spring Tour 2008 to Lawrence on Sunday March 9th at 7pm. Headliners Shane & Shane will be joined by Starfield, David Nasser, and special guest Bethany Dillon.

So we’ve got tickets. You can come in and get them at Signs of Life for $10 or pay $15 at the door - up to you.

Oh, the show is at Haskell University, Coffin Complex Gym - Haskell students get in free!

The art work of Signs of Life gallery artist Rick Beerhorst is featured on the cover of the August 2007 edition of Christianity Today. See more of Rick’s work in our on line gallery.

Now through June 23rd, some of our best CDs are on sale.  We started at 25% off on June 1st and the discount improves by 1% each day (except Sundays, when we’re closed).  Today is the 5th, so we are up to 28% off!  But once they’re gone, they’re gone!  You can wait until the discount reaches 40%, but you might risk loosing that CD you’ve had your eye on.  Come in often to see how things are progressing.

If there are any sale CDs left on the 22nd, we’ll finish up with a buy-1, get-1-free grand finale.  The buy-1/get-1 event is two days only: Friday, June 22nd and Saturday, June 23rd.

The May 4th Friday night concert that was to feature Tyler Clements and Jill Koch has been cancelled. But Tyler has a good excuse. His wife Lindsay had a baby Wednesday afternoon: “her name is Charlotte Ruth Clements and she’s beautiful” reports Dad. Hopefully we can reschedule Tyler and Jill at a time when Tyler is a little less busy.

Come in and get a fantastic deal on beautiful books!

Acclaimed author and long-time leader of The Navigators, Jerry Bridges, returns to Lawrence February 2nd and 3rd to speak on the topic of What the Gospel Is, Isn’t, and Why It Matters. Mr. Bridges served in the collegiate ministry and community ministries of The Navigators, and for 15 years he was the Vice President for Corporate Affairs. This exciting conference is open to the public and sponsored by the University of Kansas Navigator group. Details are available at the KU Navs website.

Mr. Bridges is the author of over a dozen books, the most popular of which, The Pursuit of Holiness, has sold nearly one-and-a-half million copies. His publisher writes: Jerry takes holiness out of the realm of the impossible and brings it into the real world of our daily lives and decisions. Whether you’re continuing your pursuit of holiness or just beginning, the principles and guidelines in The Pursuit of Holiness will challenge you to obey God’s command of holiness.

The Jerry Bridges book we most often recommend at Signs of Life is The Gospel for Real Life. In it we are given the sage advice to “preach the gospel to yourself every day.” But what is the gospel? And how does it affect our day to day life? Here you will find profound answers to these questions; but don’t confuse “profound” with “hard to read”.  The novice as well as the mature Christian will both find this to be a very satisfying book.

St. Lawrence Schola had been scheduled to perform Gregorian Chants for the season at 7:30 in the gallery as part of Christmas Festival 2006 - 12 events for 12 days before Christmas.  However, they have just informed us that they will be unable to perform.  Signs of Life regrets any inconvenience.
