Everything Good about God Is True
Christian Living
“Bruce Reyes-Chow articulates what so many of us are quietly thinking: that there are valuable goods in this Christian story worth carrying forward. When our faith is hijacked, the solution is not to turn over the keys; it's to say and live what we know to be true. Everything Good about God Is True offers a much-needed catechesis--one of liberation and love and justice--that gives voice to our longings for a God beyond both our construction and our deconstruction. This is a must-read for all who sense that something in this faith is worth salvaging.”

Church Leadership & Ministry
“Immigrants and refugees bring fresh ideas and new ways of living that enrich our communities. Still, challenges arise as ethnicities, languages, and cultures collide. In such times, how do churches flourish in their witness to Jesus Christ? In Intercultural Church, Safwat Marzouk points toward intercultural ministry as the answer. He shows how an intercultural church worships and welcomes to become a church for today and for the future. Marzouk calls us to embrace diversity fully in order to become the prophetic church and the body of Christ. This is an important book for those who love the church and wish to engage in a living ministry.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

This theological extravaganza is imaginative and accessible, and for all who seek to love ourselves, others and God.””

Yugar is a promising, rising feminist scholar whose new book is characterized by thorough research, enticing writing, and delightful presentation.”
Ten Movements of the Jesus Way
Discipleship & Christian Education
“Ten Movements of the Jesus Way is a compelling and accessible guide to the Jesus Way as a way of life rather than a set of beliefs.

These ten movements challenge and inspire, calling us toward deeper discipleship and a more faithful engagement with the world.”

This biblically sound, theologically astute, and ethically relevant book should be mandatory reading in classrooms, congregations, and other faith communities.”

Men
“Unmasking the Male Soul is a careful historical, cultural, and scriptural study of masculinity that dissembles the bounds of gender roles and shifts the disposition towards greater strength, through wider imagination. It pushes us to nuance our learned perceptions of performed gender, urging us to challenge institutions that stifle human equality. Wilmer G. Villacorta takes us on a personal and theological journey, probing female strength and the vulnerability of God so women and men can be courageous enough to live harmoniously.”
Preaching & Worship
“We Pray Freedom helps us breathe. During disarray and turmoil, we need prayers, rituals, and words to give forth new life and help sustain and empower us. Editors Liz Theoharis and Charon Hribar give us a beautifully written, uplifting, powerful, and challenging book that will change the way we see worship, community, and the world.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“In White Awake, Rev. Dr. Daniel Hill divulges his most intimate experiences of whiteness and how white privilege impacts our society. He thoughtfully uncovers cultural identity, social constructions of race, and colorblindness in a manner that is both provoking and enlightening on the pressing social reality for people of color. Hill offers seven stages to a ministry of reconciliation as he invites us to wander away from our comfort zones and challenge us to become informed new beings. White Awake is a crucial book for our time, as the social and political landscape progresses into torrential territories. This book is challenging, provocative, and significant, and I strongly recommend it.”
