Evangelism & Missions
“Are you terrified about having spiritual conversations? This book is a great primer, helping you avoid the extremes of being either too pushy or too passive, while training you in practical and Spirit-dependent ways to explain the reasons for the hope you have.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“This is groundbreaking work: first, it highlights how a lack of ethnic identity is a barrier to being effective witnesses, and then it calls all people to ethnic identity, awareness, healing, and reconciliation through the gospel. It's brilliant and it's good news!”
Theology
“This is a classic work, a go-to primer that lays out a solid framework for revival. And while the book shows bountiful evidence of thorough scholarship, Lovelace's passion for holistic renewal and revival comes through loud and clear. If you're interested in renewal in our day, this book is a must-read.”
Bible Studies & Devotionals
“We live in a world of racial division, but God's answer isn't to be colorblind. To participate in God's justice and reconciliation, we need to understand how our ethnic identity fits in to the bigger story. This Bible study helpfully and skillfully gives us the start we need to help us receive and redeem our ethnic identities in Jesus' name and be a part of the healing that only the kingdom of God can bring!”
Apologetics
“Accessible, clear and compelling. Rick has not only given us the reasons to believe but also the images and metaphors to make these arguments memorable and relatable. This book will not only bolster your own faith but give you the conversational tools to share your faith with others.”
Christian Living
“In improvisational comedy, 'no' is the fastest way to kill a scene. You have to keep saying yes to each other to keep the laughs flowing. Our faith acts in the same way, and Finding Your Yes helpfully gives you practical ways to keep saying yes to God—to keep your faith growing and flourishing.”
Evangelism & Missions
“This book reminds me of a doctor's physical (in a good way!)—skillfully checking under my tongue and knocking my knees to see if I'm spiritually healthy and sound. Then after the checkup, it offers me next steps to keep my soul in shape. Please read this book: it's a fresh, winsome and thoughtful articulation of what faith could look like in our seemingly normal lives.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Hearing God is still the gold standard in learning to recognize God's voice in our everyday lives. It offers wise, thoughtful and grounded guidelines for discernment, while acknowledging that God still speaks to each of us today. Over the decades, I have not recommended another book on hearing God more.”
Christian Living
“This book is wise, hilarious, vulnerable, practical, and utterly delightful. Heather winsomely unpacks insights from psychology, biology, her experience, and her faith to yank us from our visions of glory, prisons of despair, or tantrums of envy, and helps us take concrete steps to make life good and beautiful again. It's Not Your Turn is a wonderful book that serves up guidance and healing for the striving-yet-discouraged soul.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Whether you're Asian American or not, Learning Our Names will helpfully guide you through an insightful and redemptive journey of our names, our histories, our families, our backgrounds, and our gifts in light of God's larger story. It's a great primer that shows how Asian Americans can embrace where we've come from and who we're made to be in faith, life, and love.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Miracle Work should be the go-to primer for anyone who seeks to minister in the Spirit. It clearly comes from an experienced yet intelligent, humble yet biblical, level-headed yet open practitioner, and I have not read a finer, nor a more accessible, book on supernatural ministry. Read, if you dare.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Sometimes, we just need to get back to the basics. And when we do, we often find that we hadn't learned the basics as well as we thought. Mission 3:16 does this by taking a well-known Bible verse, illustrating it with stories from around the world, and offering winsome applications that make you want to go and do it right away! I have my takeaways already, and if you read this book, you'll get yours.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“If your ministry is interested in reaching young adults, Not Done Yet is a strong primer. The five practices—initiate, invite, include, involve, and invest—are not only helpful but something that's congruent with the ways that our most thriving communities tend to operate. These rhythms, if practiced, would be transformative, not only for your faith community but also for the spiritual lives of young adults around you.”
Participating in Abundant Life
Theology
“Mark skillfully widens the scope of salvation—connecting back to the concepts of shalom and the kingdom of God—to show that a more holistic and yet deeply biblical view of abundant and eternal life is for both the world now and the world to come. So good, and a much-needed word for the times we're living in.”
Evangelism & Missions
“The missional frame of this book—encounter, explore, empower, establish—is so helpful in starting and sustaining flourishing communities of faith. This is the way to do it! And the stories the authors share offer much inspiration and hope that God is still on the move today. If you want practical ways to jump in and be a part of what God is doing in the world, read this book.”
Evangelism & Missions
“I've been equipped and inspired anew by this book to better understand and connect with the many different kinds of people who don't yet follow Jesus. Ditch the one-size-fits-all approach to being a witness: let this book help you do the things that may actually meet our friends' felt spiritual needs.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Prayer meetings don't have to be boring! In a day of increasing spiritual isolation, this book delightfully expands our imagination for what praying together could be, while offering practical, experience-birthed insight to help others connect with God in old and new ways. Read and be lifted up!”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“We're lonelier than ever, and we don't like it. Instead of avoiding or escaping this all-too-human condition, this book honestly and refreshingly invites us to stay with it and find Jesus in the spaces and places where we'd rather not be. Read and find healing for your soul.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Based on research, Rick debunks the myths that say the sky is falling on the Christian faith in America, and instead, he convincingly shows that people are actually more open to talking about spirituality than we thought. Read this book and you'll find yourself receiving practical help on raising up leaders and communities that can welcome those who don't yet follow Jesus!”
