By Faith and By Love

Fiction

“Like good teachers, Martin and Mabel England likely never knew the many lives they touched, changing the course of those lives for good. Living in the community they co-founded, I benefit daily from their sacrifices made and their witness freely given. Williams whimsically weaves their story, giving a glimpse of much that they accomplished and the good that comes from lives well lived. Through this book, the Englands will continue to touch and forever change lives.”

Once Upon a Time There Was a Three-Year-Old Grandpa

History & Biography

“‘But eating together is a way of falling in love.’ What a beautiful way of putting it. David Janzen puts much beautifully in his newest book. He says that his Uncle Johnny understood something about raising spiritually awake boys. David is spiritually awake, and by reading this book, the reader has the chance to become more spiritually awake, too. You may become nostalgic for things past, but you’ll also be propelled into a sense of wonder about things present and future—a truly hopeful work.”

Ordinary Heroes of Racial Justice

History & Biography

“A book for such a time as this. From the opening sentence—'Race has mattered throughout American and American church history, and it continues to shape our lives in ways we may not even see'—Karen Johnson shines a light on this truth through the stories of twentieth-century Christians who humbly lived as though race matters. Here at Koinonia Farm, we are grateful that Karen lived among us for a time, absorbing the spirit of our community and Clarence Jordan's witness. She chose him as one of her ordinary heroes, writing, 'He insisted that faithful Christian witness demanded that White Christians share spiritual, social, and economic fellowship as equals with all Christians—including Black ones.' Karen echoes Saint Benedict in insisting that this call must come through all humility. Read this book—a humble demand.”
