“It has been my great luck to find Knox McCoy. His effortless, on-the-spot humor, while making me seethe with envy, absolutely translates to the page in All Things Reconsidered. In this book, you will find masterful storytelling, relatable humanity, and an unexpected story about picking up Cheesy Gorditas from Taco Bell in the drive-through with a naked friend. I’m just saying there is a lot in here, all hilarious and surprisingly tender. Knox is an American treasure.”

“Bittersweet is so delicious I wanted to douse it in butter and syrup and eat the whole thing. I fell into a deep and genuine depression when I read the last word and there were no more. Be kind and please treat yourself to this book. It is lovely and hilarious and poignant in all the best ways that make me so deliriously happy as a reader.”
History & Biography
“Schraeder Rodriguez guides us through evangelical megachurching, private struggle, and public silence--and what emerges is rooted in honesty, compassion, and the sacred claim that all people are made in God's image. A powerful contribution to both queer theology and the future of faith communities.”
Christian Living
“More than ever, we crave spiritual leadership not from academics in ivory towers but from battle-tested disciples in the trenches. This is the trusted counselor we find in Mary DeMuth. With wisdom and experience and tenderness and beauty, she leads us closer to Jesus in Everything—through despair, past fear, beyond control, and all the way to surrender.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“With a deep, genuine rumbling in his belly for racial equality and justice, Jeff James offers a hard look at history, the racial invention of whiteness, the structures built around the protection of white supremacy, and a hopeful posture toward a more beautiful world where racism is confronted, condemned, and overcome.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Even though the last of my kids are nearly grown and launched, Bunmi's reflections on motherhood have me reminiscing about the feral, restless, in-over-her-head mom in yesterday's sweats I used to be, but with so much more grace and compassion for myself than I knew was possible. This book is a gift to anyone caring for a child.”

“PRAISE FOR I THINK YOU’RE WRONG (BUT I’M LISTENING) “Sarah and Beth are an absolute gift to our culture right now. If you are weary of the political fury, division, and gridlock, this book will lay pavement for a better way. Not only do they offer balanced perspectives from each political ideology, but they teach us how to dialogue well, without sacrificing our humanity. I wish every citizen of the United States would read this book.”

“There are certain types of people who are capable of nudging us toward courage without making us feel small or insignificant, and Annie is at the front of the line. She has done that with Let's All Be Brave , and before you even mean to, you are putting your YES on the table.”
Christian Living
“It is no secret that Beth and Sarah have long been my North Star for a nuanced approach to political discussion without all the bias. What a thrill to read their latest work—that our shared conflicts can actually create deeper connections with people? I’ll have what they are having. Beth and Sarah are the living best at reclaiming common ground.”

“I begged Shauna for this manuscript a year ago while it was half-baked. When I finally received it, I read it from cover to cover in one sitting, then sat down at my laptop and wrote four emails bowing out of engagements that no longer fit my life, made two hard phone calls, and gave an end date to two other commitments. Present Over Perfect loaned me the courage, integrity, and permission I’d been waiting for. I will go to the grave thankful for this message. It has changed my life.”
Christian Living
“Yet again, Hugh tips the sacred cows that need tipping and ruffles the feathers that need ruffling. This isn’t done through hyperbole or distortion but through a genuine examination of Jesus’s life. Some will decide this is a controversial book, but in fact, Jesus was a controversial Savior. This is simply an honest retelling of Jesus’s unruly story with a simple call to be like him in a world where most prefer their cows untipped and their feathers unruffled.”
Christian Living
“Jen, pick one of your favorite people on planet Earth.’ Fine, I pick Shannan. I pick her friendship. I pick her example. I pick Start with Hello. This book. It is lovely, warm, honest. It brims with possibility. It is—and Shannan would hate this word—inspiring. I want to run home and leave the mess where it is and send a text to my five closest neighbors to come over for chili and $10 wine. What a gift she is. What a gift this book is.”
History & Biography
“I don’t know exactly what it is about Preston’s writing, but you manage to find a million points of connection no matter how your spiritual path has meandered. . . . As you turn the very last page, your soul is yearning for God, and you know that he will be found.”

“My favorite kind of leadership is one that ignites a spark of fire deep within the belly and shows us exactly how to fan the flames of that ambition to set the world ablaze. That's exactly what this book delivers. By bringing together this collection of voices from thought leaders, advocates, and activists of every stripe, The End of Hunger lays out real-life stories of individuals impacted by the hunger crisis, food scarcity, and malnutrition and tells us in practical terms how we can make a global difference in this fight just by incorporating a few simple dial turns and adjustments from where we do life. Whether it's the choices we make from the aisles of our grocery store, or what we harvest from the vegetable garden growing in the back yard, or how we engage in our community and with our elected officials, or the way we feed and nourish our loved ones and have conversations with them around the dinner table, everyone can have a seat at the table in this work. I really believe that this is the stuff that matters, and it's what is going to change the world.”

“The Fix should come with a warning label. This is not an inconsequential book. It will change your life immeasurably for the better—but only after first laying it bare. There’s nowhere to hide here. Doesn’t that sound, at least a little bit, like a relief?”
Christian Living
“Sheila is a truth-teller, wise counsel, and a force of raw honesty in a harsh world that begs us to be perfect. This book sings of release: from unfair expectations, from my own self-condemnation, and into the arms of Jesus who has no notion of halfway love.”
The Ministry of Ordinary Places
Christian Living
“Sometimes when reading a book, I think ‘I’ll recommend this to that group’ or ‘this one goes go that community,’ but hand to heaven, I would put this book in every single pair of hands across ideology, camps, and tribes. Part storytelling, part prophetic, with dizzyingly wonderful writing, Shannan brings us back to the neighborhood, back to ordinary tables, back to a life we know in our deepest hearts is meant for us. I love her. I love this book.”
Christian Living
“Colby Martin has been a trusted guide through the many spiritual landmines our generation has grappled with. In The Shift, he creates a sturdy path to walk upon as many of us venture away from the old forms of faith we once knew and into new, sometimes disorienting territory.”
