A Captive Mind

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book is a lighthouse in the fog. With skillful precision and pastoral conviction, Nye helps us set course toward clarity amid the haze of warring ideologies.”

A Teachable Spirit

Christian Living

“the great gifts of human experience—curiosity. To live well, we must learn well. Better yet, we must acquire and embrace the desire to learn—a living, breathing curiosity about God, ourselves, and our world. A.J. Swoboda offers a compelling call and an accessible path to living the life of a learner, not simply to know more, but to become more. As Swoboda concludes, “The goal, then, for disciples of Jesus is not to get more information from the teacher. The goal is to become like him.” This book shows us how.”

A Way in the Wilderness

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“El desierto es un territorio familiar para todos nosotros. Los momentos en la cima de la montaña rara vez duran, y el largo descenso hacia valles oscuros casi siempre aguarda. Afortunadamente, la Biblia está repleta de historias de esperanza en el valle y caminos inesperados excavados en el desierto. Kristel Acevedo es una guía maravillosa que nos guía pastoral y personalmente, con valentía y convicción, a través de algunas de estas historias, ayudándonos a llegar al otro lado del desierto, donde nos espera la vida y la vida en plenitud.”

Don't Blow Up Your Ministry

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Serving and leading in the local church places pastors and church leaders at a difficult intersection. The pressure to perform coupled with awareness (or denial) of our own sin, brokenness, and fragility leave us dangerously vulnerable to a wide variety of potential pitfalls. In this book, Michael MacKenzie offers us a sobering reality check right alongside immense hope. Out of our shame, fear, and pain, God can still bring about surprising good, and Don't Blow Up Your Ministry presents a compelling first word in a critically important ongoing conversation.”

Hear My Prayer

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“With her distinct mix of depth, warmth, and pastoral sensitivity, Liz Ditty once again helps us draw closer to the God who so longs for nearness with us. This journey through Elijah's story and the Lord's Prayer will inspire and equip you to experience God more deeply through the ups, downs, and in-betweens of life.”

Love All Our Neighbors

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Navigating tension with both conviction and kindness seems like a skill that's in sadly short supply these days. But in Love All Our Neighbors, Tony Scarcello shows us how. This book weaves together theological richness, Biblical conviction, pastoral nuance, and deep human kindness to show us how we might embody Christlike love to any and all God brings into our spheres of influence.”

Made to Belong

Christian Living

“We’re in an isolation and loneliness crisis. Technology’s promise of a global utopian village has proven a farce and we find ourselves moving further apart, losing our ability and aptitude for meaningful connection. David Kim’s book is both a pastoral and prophetic call back home to belonging. I’ve seen David’s life, up close and personal. This book is not just a set of ideas; it’s a story lived and continuing to be lived by a deeply devoted follower of Jesus who’s felt the pain of loneliness and has taken the long journey toward meaningful community. I can’t recommend this book enough.”

Pastoral Confessions

Theology

“We often need someone to go before us, to show us the way into the frightening unknown. A life of confession—brutal, beautiful honesty about our sin and brokenness—is one of these frightening unknowns, especially for pastors and church leaders in the modern age. In Pastoral Confessions, my friend Jamin Goggin goes before us, disentangling us from sin’s great lie, ‘that the place of healing is the place of harm.’ Full of deep wisdom and insight, this book can help free us from the temptation of image management and lead us to a life of freedom and joy as image-bearers.”

The GREAT Morning Revolution

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“If God’s mercies truly are new every morning, as we read in Lamentations—and they are—then every morning offers an invitation to encounter and experience anew the goodness and grace of God. My friend Tara Beth Leach offers us the gift of her wisdom and warmth as she guides us into the beautiful daily rhythm of sinking deeply into the presence of divine love.”

To Live Well

Christian Living

“We live in a culture marked by restlessness and chaos, in great need of clarifying voices. Alan Noble is one of those voices. To Live Well offers us the gifts of astute cultural insight, pastoral steadiness, and practical help, reminding us that human flourishing isn't a reality we construct but is found in returning, again and again, to the One who offers us life and life to the full.”

Us for Them

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Austin Fischer has written an important book for our time. As he puts it, ‘our zeal for justice and righteousness is so easily compromised by judgment and self-righteousness.’ Both pastoral and provocative, Us for Them is a clear, uncomfortable, necessary, and ultimately hopeful work that calls Christians to embody the way of Jesus, which is to say, the way of love, humility, and kindness.”

Virtual Reality Church

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Technology is evolving at a rapid pace and many church leaders find themselves unprepared. How are new digital realities affecting our ecclesiology? What does it mean to be the church in the internet age? Are online and digital connections real connections? These questions are complex, nuanced, and require critical engagement on multiple levels. In this book, Darrell Bock and Jonathan Armstrong offer us several tremendous and timely gifts—deep and thoughtful reflections, thorough surveys of the current and potential future landscape, and maybe most importantly, a confident reassurance in knowing that "the one who created the universe will supply His church with sufficient creativity and guidance" to navigate this and any forthcoming technological changes we may encounter. This book is a must-read for any and all who are serving and leading the local church in the digital age.”

When Life Feels Empty

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“We live in an age of perpetual dissatisfaction. What 'is' always feels disappointing when compared with what 'could be,' and we find ourselves exhausted on the hedonic treadmill, always chasing, never arriving. But the answer to our angst is found in what 'always has been.' With cultural precision and pastoral wisdom, Isaac Serrano guides us across our history as the people of God and leads us into a future of meaning, purpose, and joy. For any and all seeking a life of fulfillment, When Life Feels Empty is the guidebook you've been searching for.”
