Mentoring by Design

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Dr. Marton's book shows how mentor relationships can bring renewal to the church. He situates practical approaches for ministry today within biblical, historical, and theological traditions in the church. The yield is a helpful resource for leaders serving in a variety of ministry settings.”

Unspeakable

Preaching & Worship

“A wise and clear-eyed companion, Sarah Travis guides preachers toward homiletical paths that reveal spaces of vulnerability and honesty to nourish trust and hope in the midst of our wounded world. Unspeakable is thoroughly theological and trauma informed. Travis's approach encourages preachers to face difficulties and limitations, offering fresh possibilities that lead to validation and safety for survivors and creativity in preaching.”

Weird in the World

Christian Living

“Weird in the World serves as a winsome guide and companion for Christians in navigating the generative space between the high call of discipleship and the reality of our world marked by preoccupations, peril, and possibility. Miller invites us to set aside our worry and drive to be socially acceptable, successful, or even liked and to embrace ‘being weird’ for the sake of following Jesus. Through exploration of ancient and rich scriptural practices, we are encouraged to engage our imaginations to envision possibilities of deepening faith and life not despite the world, but fully and deeply in it.”
