“In a world filled with people who think they have all the answers, we desperately need more individuals who know the importance of asking the right questions. Lore Ferguson Wilbert is just such a person. As Lore shows both through her life and in these pages, a strong faith doesn’t just allow questions; it demands them. A curious faith is a robust faith. This invitation to ask good questions will encourage and strengthen you—and your faith.”
Arts & Literature
“A Dance in Media Res is exactly that: a waltz, a shimmy, a pirouette, and a two-step or two, set right here in the middle of things, within life in its ordinariness and its glory, in its minutes and its eternity, in its places, spaces, rhythms. These are poems to read and ponder and read again, poems that will lift your eyes upward and still plant your feet on the ground.”
A Practical Primer on Theological Method
Theology
“Theology matters for every Christian. In recognition of this basic tenet of the faith, A Practical Primer on Theological Method offers an approach to biblical teaching and Christian belief that is both fresh and sound. Blending lively prose with robust doctrine, this volume is one I will recommend widely and enthusiastically for years to come.”
Philosophy
“literature, and theology, making connections with the real world around us in a way that is illuminating and inviting. You’ll come away from this book inspired to be more thoughtful and engaged with both deep questions and the everyday world.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“All about the Bass is like a course on listening: it will enlighten, challenge, inspire, and—most important—equip you to understand more people better. And I can’t think of anything the world needs more right now than this effort, these skills, and this vision.”
History & Biography
“America’s Religious History offers a comprehensive account of the history we must know in order to understand our present and pave a better way forward. The book is remarkable in its breadth and depth, in its precision and scholarship, and in its sheer readability. Thomas Kidd is a great gift to the contemporary American church, and this book demonstrates why.”
Christian Living
“This book is a balm to the soul, steeped in words, stories, and exhortations that woo the reader toward timeless wisdom, shared humanity, and the Spirit-filled life.”

“I have been studying beauty and teaching my students about it for years. Finally, Beauty Is Your Destiny is here, a lovely and compelling book that gathers up a treasure trove of insights on one of the most essential qualities of our Christian faith and our very humanity. I will return to these pages again and again and will encourage others to do the same.”
Christian Living
“Becoming by Beholding is a work to behold. Not only is this book a study in beauty, imagination, and spiritual formation; it also models the very practices it preaches. To read it is to witness beauty and imagination at work and thus to leave its pages better formed and more ready to be formed by all the goodness the world has to offer.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“In a digital age in which the entire world seems like our neighborhood, it is easy to overlook our own local, flesh-and-blood, brick-and-mortar communities. It is easy to want to change the whole world but not even know our own neighbors. Amar Peterman invites us to turn more toward the places where we dwell, to the people who live among us, and to the spaces where we can cultivate the common good in our own communities—in other words, to become more neighborly. Loving our neighbors with Christlike love is a process of our own becoming, and I’m grateful that upon reading these pages, I’m inspired and encouraged to participate more fully in that process of becoming.”
Christian Living
“Many of us, for many reasons, feel overwhelmed by the darkness in this cultural moment. I can think of few people better equipped or more trustworthy than Chris Davis to bring a steady ray of light by which we can more clearly see not only the future but the present. Bright Hope for Tomorrow isn’t just about tomorrow. It’s about today.”
C. S. Lewis and the Art of Writing
Arts & Literature
“In this engaging and enlightening volume, Corey Latta shows how C. S. Lewis's reading, writing, and faith formed the man. Whether you come to this study as a writer, a reader, a Lewis aficionado, or merely as a fellow Christian, there is much here to please.”
Work, Money & Leadership
“Chelsea Sobolik is a seasoned professional and a faithful believer whose insights and experiences in the work world will help prepare and guide those starting out as well as those already facing challenges and questions in their working lives. This book is a gift to those who want to work well, serve well, and live well.”
Children & Youth
“Jasmine Holmes has uncovered a wealth of buried treasures in the lives of these remarkable, inspiring, and ordinary women. They have so much to teach us today, and we have so much to learn. Get ready to be humbled and awed by these powerful Black women.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“We are in the midst of a reckoning on the role of celebrity within American evangelicalism. From her position of being inside the machine, Beaty brings two key elements to this compelling book. First, she brings knowledge and insights that will help anyone wanting to disentangle their faith from celebrity culture. But, even more than this, she offers an honest, humble self-examination that is a model many of us in the church need to follow.”
Theology
“Christian Academic Writing is both practical and inspiring. Merkle and Miles not only offer their own invaluable experience as academic writers, but they also point to some of the best resources available for all writers. I will recommend this book often.”
Christian Living
“Cloud of Witnesses is exactly what its title suggests: a mighty, enveloping, transcendent, and present testament to the faith from the faithful. The beauty and power of this collection is in its variety, breadth, and depth. Presented chronologically rather than topically, these prayers illuminate the history of the church and her witnesses: each individual petition occurs in a particular time and context yet affirms the eternal and universal nature of the Christian faith. This is that rare book that is both richly instructive and deeply devotional.”
Christian Living
“Comfort Detox exposes the way our everyday complacencies keep us from seeing and responding to the needs of those both near and far. With compassion and conviction, Erin Straza shows us how we can and why we must break the habits that serve self rather than others.”
Apologetics
“Rebecca McLaughlin’s defense of the Christian faith is what all defenses should be: sensitive, smart, and sound. This is apologetics done right—and exactly right for this age in which we live. Confronting Christianity is a book I will draw upon myself and will recommend widely to believers and skeptics alike.”
Arts & Literature
“God gave his image-bearers the gift of understanding and expressing wonder at his glory in creation. Creation Groans On is an invitation to celebrate God’s glory through the simple act of loving attention. This collection of words and images is a balm to the soul and a feast for the heart.”
