Faithful Endurance

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Pastoral ministry often feels like a labyrinth filled with uncertain turns and innumerable blind spots. If ventured on alone, the journey is marked by constant frustration and despair. But if you are joined by a friend, especially a wise one, the journey is not only more enjoyable but also more likely to result in safe passage. While reading Faithful Endurance, I felt accompanied by wise friends who imparted insightful wisdom that I trust will help me and any other pastor to remain faithful until the end.”

He Is Not Ashamed

Christian Living

“The sweetness of the gospel is that Jesus gives himself to people who do not deserve him. He loves the unlovable. He welcomes those no one else wants. He is not embarrassed by embarrassing people. This is good news, especially for messed-up people like you and me. He Is Not Ashamed welcomes you to come face-to-face with the Jesus who doesn’t shame sinners but summons them to be part of his forever family. Whether you’re just coming to know Jesus or have walked with him for decades, I commend this wonderful work to you.”

“The pains and pressures of ministry can be daunting for a pastor’s wife. Expectations from yourself and others can feel inescapable. But what matters most is this: What does Jesus want from you? In How to Thrive as a Pastor’s Wife, Christine Hoover serves as a trusted friend to help sisters steward their unique calling. Whether you’ve always dreamed of being a pastor’s wife or never expected to be one, I trust this resource will help you faithfully walk on the path Jesus has called you to.”

The Loveliest Place

Christian Living

““Do you consider the church to be lovely? Jesus does. He looks at his blood-bought bride with deep delight and desires that we do the same. In The Loveliest Place, Dustin Benge introduces us afresh to the church in a way that rekindles affection and renews commitment. Many books tell us about the church, but few help us love the church. This important work refreshes the soul and inspires worship."”

The Pastor as Leader

Church Leadership & Ministry

“A pastor is a leader. But where will he lead those who follow him? The Pastor as Leader isn’t just another book on leadership or preaching but a Scripture-saturated plea to lead God’s people by God’s word. This refreshing vision of pastoral ministry was helpful and humbling for me. I trust it’ll serve you as well.”

The Visual Word

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“As a plane ride above the horizon helps you appreciate the place you call home, some books help you appreciate the big picture of God's wisdom in Scripture. The Visual Word is one of those books. This fascinating work stirs the reader with wonder in God's Word in a fresh way by combining succinct summaries and striking graphics that are not only creative but clear, faithful, memorable, and Christ-exalting. I highly commend it.”
