A Faith That Will Not Fail

Christian Living

“Master storyteller Michele Cushatt weaves true-life experiences with biblical insights and wisdom from trusted Christian voices to guide us through ten powerful, life-shaping practices, from humility and lament to contentment and connection. A Faith That Will Not Fail is one of those rare books you will want to read, savor, gift, and return to again and again.”

But Then She Remembered

Christian Living

“This book is for anyone who has walked into a room and forgotten what she came for. It’s also for anyone who has walked into a crisis and forgotten God. This book is good. Really good. In fact, the only bad thing with But Then She Remembered is that you will want to remember it—every chapter, every word—and you won’t be able to. You will (happily) have to read it again. And again. And . . .”

Don't Miss Out

Christian Living

“I love this book! Jeannie Cunnion takes the sometimes confusing, often misunderstood, and almost always under-appreciated person of the Holy Spirit and brings Him into our lives in all His magnificent glory. Whether you’re meeting Him for the first time or you’ve known God’s Spirit for years, you’ll discover irresistible power in these pages.”

First Love

Christian Living

“Do you want a love that burns bright from beginning to end? With specific action steps and thoughtful prayer prompts, First Love equips you to say yes to God’s invitation to a life marked by confident trust, deep-rooted joy and a love that overflows and impacts all that you do!”

Happy Church

Christian Living

“Pessimists, skeptics and curmudgeons take note: you are allowed to be happy—and so is your church! In a world where books about brokenness and suffering top the bestseller lists, Happy Church comes as a breath of fresh and joy-filled air. Using a captivating blend of biblical research, scholarly insight and real-life encounters with gladness, Tim McConnell's Happy Church gives us both reason and permission to rejoice, even in life's most difficult moments. Yes, life is hard (and the Bible says it will be so) but as Tim McConnell says, 'Your church is allowed to be happy!' And the good news, according to McConnell, is that the happiness is already in there—we just need to know how to get it out.”

I Thought This Would Make Me Happy

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“With candid illustrations, biblical insights, and practical takeaways and action steps in every chapter, I Thought This Would Make Me Happy is the positive change agent every relationship needs. Ditch selfish expectations, embrace genuine joy, and settle for more in your marriage!”

Making Marriage Easier

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“This is the book they should give you before the ink on your marriage license is dry. If every couple read Making Marriage Easier and actually did the things Arlene suggests, good relationships would get better, bad ones would find the courage to change, and even the most dry or brittle love would begin to flourish and grow.”

Parenting the Wholehearted Child

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Moms, grab some girlfriends and read this book together. You’ll come away knowing that God isn’t just crazy about your kids; he’s crazy about you too!”

Rest for Your Soul

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“Wendy Blight has long been a trusted voice in my journey with God, and Rest for Your Soul delivers everything the title promises. Wendy combines practical steps and scriptural insight with her trademark gentleness, drawing us into connection with Christ via life-changing ‘holy habits.’ This book is a powerful companion to your prayer life. It will leave you refreshed, renewed, and—yes—genuinely rested, even in life’s busiest and most unsettling seasons.”

The Flirtation Experiment

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Could your marriage use a little more playfulness? Passion? Kindness? Hope? All of these things—and more—can be intentionally kindled, and in The Flirtation Experiment, Lisa Jacobson and Phylicia Masonheimer invite us into the laboratory of their lives to show us how it’s done. Whether you’ve been married for five years or fifty, you’ll find yourself challenged, inspired, and equipped to act the way you want to feel—and start enjoying the rich and satisfying relationship you’ve always wanted!”

The Gift of Limitations

Christian Living

“What would it look like to believe—truly believe—that the boundary lines of your life have fallen in pleasant places? With the wisdom of a seasoned tour guide and the empathy of a trusted friend, Sara Hagerty takes us by the hand and shows us how to exchange our thoughts and ideals for God’s so that, instead of being a burden, our limitations limitations become a wonder—a wonder-full part of our stories. Sara is one of the most gifted writers of our day, and this is the transformational book your soul has been longing to read.”

The Path of Life

Christian Living

“No matter what path you find yourself on—whether it’s filled with surprises, hardships, or joy—you’ll find your touchpoint in this book. Drawing on more than forty years of marriage, parenting, and following Christ, Lisa Robertson curates a wealth of scriptural insight and real-life stories that point us toward the best path of all: the path of life!”

The Road to Love and Laughter

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Had you told me that a book about marriage—one built on biblical principles and time-tested relationship wisdom—would make me laugh out loud, I would not have believed you. (I own at least twenty books about marriage, and not once have I even chuckled.) But in The Road to Love and Laughter, Kristin and Danny Adams prove (in case there was any doubt) that they are more than just a couple of pretty faces who know how to lip sync. Whether you’re married or hoping to be, this book will equip you to grow in (and fight for) your love, trust God to redeem and shape you, and have a whole lot of fun as you do. Buy a copy for yourself and then wrap one up with every wedding gift you give from now on.”

Trusting God in All the Things

Christian Living

“Don’t let the bite-sized chapters fool you; there is power in these pages! With the Scripture verses and prayer prompts bracketing each day’s devotion, you’ll find purpose and peace in the midst of loneliness, anxiety, broken relationships, and much more. Trusting God in All the Things is one of those books you’ll return to again and again—keep a copy in your car, your purse, your bedside table, wherever you need to meet God in the middle minutes of your day!”

When Your Adult Child Strays

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“With engaging stories, biblical wisdom, and practical insights from trusted experts, Jim Burns equips us to parent out of strength and love instead of fear, confusion, or shame. When Your Adult Child Strays is an anthem of hope, reminding us that no matter how far away our kids may be, they are never out of God's reach.”
