Just Do Something

Christian Living

“God told me that He wants you to read this book. Actually, that is one of the many mistaken notions about God's will that Kevin DeYoung wants to correct.”

Loneliness

Christian Living

“You might be married with kids and boast thousands of friends on social media. Yet you might still feel lonely. Steve DeWitt challenged me by showing how loneliness can be a gift from God to help us love Him more fully. Readers will join me in learning to take loneliness as an occasion to turn toward our ever-present God.”

Not From Around Here

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book fills me with hope that Christians can love and learn from each other across the differences that make us sometimes feel like enemies. Brandon O'Brien's personal narrative models the empathy and humility needed by all—rural, suburban, and urban. I echo his prayers that we'll find our shared identity in Christ and not primarily in our zip code.”

Our Good Crisis

Christian Living

“I can't think of a more encouraging and challenging way to spend our time than to dwell on these famous words of Jesus. Jonathan Dodson will help you understand their revolutionary meaning and also apply Jesus' teaching for our cultural moment.”

Pastoral Confessions

Theology

“I can’t remember the last time I read a book so convicting, with such intimate understanding of various challenges in pastoral ministry. Jamin is the kind of pastor I would trust with my confession, as he would point me toward forgiveness and healing in Christ. Heeding Jamin’s counsel isn’t easy, but a fresh wave of grace would flow through our churches if we did.”

Rhyme and Rest

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“When I see Kerrie DeBerry’s poetry, I stop and read. She has a gift for capturing everyday life in gospel perspective. She encourages me to persevere in faith, hope, and love.”

Risen

Christian Living

“Isn’t it an odd thing—that the death of Jesus gets far more attention than the resurrection of Jesus? But Steven Mathewson, pastor and scholar, is doing something about it. He has prepared an extensive immersion, fifty days through the season of Pentecost, in prayer meditation on Jesus’s resurrection. Join him on this Emmaus Road resurrection conversation.” Eugene Peterson, Professor Emeritus of Spiritual Theology, Regent College “I just love good books on the resurrection of Jesus Christ! But so few of these texts ever take the time to carefully unpack exactly why this event is so absolutely incredible, or how it grounds virtually everything in the Christian life. However, Steve Mathewson’s volume Risen: 50 Reasons Why the Resurrection Changed Everything remedies all that. The minute I saw it, I thought that this is exactly what we need. In fact, in the middle of a busy day I immediately dropped everything and studied the entire book in just a couple of hours. It is a very enlightening and rewarding read! I recommend it without hesitation.” Gary R. Habermas, Distinguished Research Professor, Liberty University and Theological Seminary “Without the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, our faith would be futile. I’m so grateful to Steve Mathewson for surveying God’s Word to find fifty reasons for great celebration that Jesus was indeed raised to life on the third day. These reflections will deepen your faith in the God who still performs miracles, especially saving sinners from the death we deserved.”

Seasons of Waiting

Christian Living

“No matter who you are, you’re waiting for something. Indeed, Christianity is a waiting religion as we eagerly long for the return of Christ. I don’t know a better book on the topic than this one by Betsy Childs Howard, one of my favorite writers.”

Sex, Dating, and Relationships

Christian Living

“Simplicity is the strength of this fresh approach to sex, dating, and relationships. If at first you chafe at the idea of ‘dating friendships,’ consider whether any alternative can bring greater glory to God, account for the biblical evidence, and guard against unnecessary heartache.”

Stronger Together

Church Leadership & Ministry

“If we’re blessed to see revival in our churches, I bet it will look a lot like the beautiful vision of partnership laid out by Dave Harvey. I encourage your church’s leaders to work through this book together and trust God to develop a vision for growing stronger together.”

Talking with Catholics about the Gospel

Evangelism & Missions

“Chris Castaldo doesn’t just write about the need for grace and truth as we Protestants talk with Roman Catholics. I have seen him model grace and truth in personal evangelism, discipleship, and preaching. No matter what you know or don’t know about Catholicism, you can learn from his example and experience.”

Telling a Better Story

Apologetics

“Joshua Chatraw issues a call to maturity in this remarkable and stirring book, which tells the “better story” of Jesus Christ. Much as many may want to ignore or dismiss Jesus, he does not give us that option, even nearly two thousand years later. I can’t wait to share this book with friends and family who do not yet believe. And I will teach this book in my church too, so we never forget that the Christian story is not only true but also beautiful.”

The Art of Dying

Christian Living

“I have never known another man like Rob Moll. His example as a husband, father, and editor inspired me to do what Jesus expected of me in those roles. He and his wife, Clarissa, have brought joy, hope, and friendship to my wife and me among many others. We will grieve the loss of Rob for the rest of our lives, until we see him again before the throne of God. I'm grateful that Rob still speaks to us through his typically mature reflections in The Art of Dying. And I'm eager for more readers to hear in this new edition from Clarissa, a gifted and dedicated writer herself. You and I don't know what tomorrow holds. But we know our Savior invites us to prepare for death, which we need not fear, because we belong to him, body and soul.”

The Best Kept Secret of Christian Mission

Evangelism & Missions

“Dickson will encourage you from Scripture with many varied ways to promote the gospel of Jesus Christ.”

The Evangelicals

History & Biography

“Christopher Catherwood’s insider credentials and global contacts make his a voice worth heeding in the evangelical movement. He offers a hopeful take on a God-graced phenomenon spreading worldwide. His critical take on distinctive American traits in evangelicalism will prompt serious reflection.”

The Flourishing Pastor

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Tom Nelson is the pastor I want to teach me how to flourish in ministry. He reminds us that nothing but intimacy with Jesus can help us recover the lost art of shepherd leadership. I'm grateful that Tom walks what he talks and sets an example for us as we follow Christ.”

The Gospel at Work

Work, Money & Leadership

“God made you and me to work. He gave us work as a means to love one another. Sebastian Traeger and Greg Gilbert help us see this blessed vision of work and apply it in everyday life. Their great book will help me get up on Monday morning and thank God for the privilege.”

The Joy of Calvinism

Christian Living

“Forster pulls few punches with his critiques both for Calvinists and also their opponents—this vigor is what makes this exploration of joyous Calvinism so welcome and challenging.”

The Loneliness Epidemic

Christian Living

“If you're not aware we face a loneliness epidemic, you will be fully informed by the end of this stats-packed book. But Mettes doesn't just highlight the problem; she also busts myths and offers a host of practical ways that leaders can help build communities of belonging. I'm eager to put these tips into practice.”

The Multigenerational Church Crisis

Church Leadership & Ministry

“All across the country you can see a generational crisis in our churches. Older and younger Christians often don’t understand each other and their differing priorities and perspectives. In this book Bryan Chapell demonstrates remarkable breadth and depth of understanding of these issues. Even better, he sketches a way forward that will keep the church on mission during our turbulent times.”
