I Choose Joy

Christian Living

“I loved this book! There are few people in the world who teach with such a clear, practical, and biblical way of bringing inspiration. I try to read everything Chip Ingram writes because I know the wisdom and takeaway value is always so good. I Choose Joy may be my favorite Chip Ingram book yet. You will learn how to put what he calls the 'The Divine Equation' into your life. I closed the book and thought, My circumstance may not change but my attitude can change and that will make all the difference in the world.”

I Choose Love

Christian Living

“Chip Ingram is one of my favorite Bible teachers! As I read this book, I realized that choosing love is a 'learned trait.' Some of us grew up not either fully understanding how to choose the right kind of love or we drifted along the way. Chip unpacks love from a biblical understanding that is profound, life-changing, and simple, but not always easy. There are amazing insights on every page.”

I Don't Know Who I Am Anymore

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“I loved this book. Carole Holiday’s wonderful personality, wit, and wisdom come through on every page. Plus, there is help on every page for all of us who have experienced grief.”

Long-Distance Grandparenting

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Words do not adequately express the joy our grandkids have brought us and the sadness we so often feel because they live so far away. This book was a very personal read for me on several levels. Every page brought confirmation of our important role as grandparents and every page brought practical ideas that we started implementing immediately. Wayne Rice is a treasured friend and mentor in my life. I just ordered a box of these books to pass out to friends!”

Making Marriage Easier

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Making Marriage Easier will do for you exactly what the title says. I LOVED this book. Arlene Pellicane is one of my favorite Christian communicators, and this is a marriage book you will want to read. It's a simple and profound book that gives practical ideas on every page. Do what she suggests, and your marriage load will be lighter, and your relationship will be stronger.”

Men and Women in the Church

Theology

“Sarah's solid biblical approach clarified several issues for me personally. Men Women in the Church is the 'talking point' book on this subject for this generation.”

More Than Just the Talk

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Jonathan McKee is one of America’s premier youth specialists, and this book will help you navigate the rough waters of teaching your kids healthy sexuality. There are some shocking but true statistics in this book to help you do your job. It’s a very good read and can help your kids make good decisions about their sexuality for their lives now and their future.”

Overcoming Grandparenting Barriers

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“As I read this book, it felt like Larry Fowler and Josh Mulvilhill were inside my mind, heart, and soul. Every grandparent must read this book; believe me, the insights and practical ideas have the power to change the trajectory of your life as a grandparent. I loved it.”

Preparing to Blend

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“I view Ron as the leading expert in the world of stepfamily issues. He brings his years of knowledge in the field to this most helpful book. I love it and will recommend it to anyone preparing to blend.”

Sustainable Children's Ministry

Children & Youth

“If you are looking for a book to help you be incredibly strategic with life-changing results in children's ministry, then this book is for you. Think of Mark and Annette as your personal leaders and consultants to help take your ministry to the next level. I love both the strategy and the practicality.”

Teaching Kids Authentic Worship

Christian Living

“Kathleen Chapman is the most creative person I know. She literally has helped thousands of children (and adults too!) enjoy and experience a more vibrant faith in God through creative worship worship experiences. This book is practical, hands on, experiential, and life-changing.”

The Be-With Factor

Children & Youth

“Students regard your very presence in their lives as a sign of caring and connectedness. The greatest impact in anyone’s life is almost always from a significant person who took time to “be-with” them. Bo and Judson not only have written a most excellent book on mentoring, they live it.”

The Danger of Raising Nice Kids

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Tim Smith is one of America's finest and most refreshing parenting experts. This book will show you how to raise your kids to be responsible adults. It is a fresh approach and very practical.”

The Grandparenting Effect

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Being a grandparent just may be your greatest legacy. I read this book through the grid of being a grandparent and I loved it. I have read other grandparenting books and this one comes from a unique and refreshingly different angle. I loved the stories of others and the insight on each page. I’ve already started using some of the principles I learned with my own grandchildren.”

The Measure of a Young Man

Children & Youth

“For years, Gene Getz has been one of the leading voices in men’s ministry. This book is truly a new classic on guiding young men toward spiritual maturity. I recommend it for every man who wants all that God has in store for him.”

The Mental Health Handbook for Ministry

Church Leadership & Ministry

“When I read through Dr. Mark Mayfield’s incredible book, The Mental Health Handbook for Ministry, my initial thought was ‘Where have you been all my life?’ This handbook is so helpful, insightful, and practical. Mark and his colleagues with this project are nationally and internationally known authorities in their field of expertise. This is a book you will read and then use as a resource for the rest of your life in ministry.”

The Parent's Guide to Helping Teenagers in Crisis

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“This is the book I suggest to every parent with a teenager in crisis or wants to prevent their child from at-risk behavior. Rich Van Pelt and Jim Hancock Hancock are not only two of America’s best experts on the subject, but their content is compelling and informative.”

The Spirit Within

Christian Living

Foreword

(wrote the foreword)

The Spiritually Vibrant Home

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“If you only have time to read one book this year on energizing your family's spiritual life, read this one. Since I finished The Spiritually Vibrant Home, I have found myself talking about the content and quoting it every day. I love the blend of quality research by the Barna Group and the excellent practical insight of Don Everts. You will find real hope and understanding to help your family thrive spiritually.”
