Journey to Disciple-Making

Discipleship & Christian Education

“In Discipology, Peyton Jones unpacks scriptural principles in ways you can’t unsee. The discipleship patterns he uncovers from Jesus and Paul are theologically rich and practical. I’ll revisit these principles again and again.”

Posting Peace

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Posting Peace is so thoroughly researched, so engagingly written, and so practically applicable that I plan to read it again—and share it with others when I do. Doug Bursch has the right combination of expertise, humor, wisdom, and compassion to give this important subject the Christ-centered perspective we all need right now. Put down your smartphone and pick up this book. Then when you go back to your social media feeds (we know you will!), you'll be better equipped to use them well instead of having them use you.”

Reaching the Unreached

Church Leadership & Ministry

“In Reaching the Unreached, Peyton Jones combines his knowledge of Scripture with his passion for today’s church. The result is a practical, biblical, and missional approach that any church of any size will be able to use.”

Foreword

(wrote the foreword)

The 5 Masculine Instincts

Men

“I love discovering treasures from unexpected sources. And what could be a more unexpected source for learning about a balanced, biblical self-image than the Old Testament stories of men like ourselves? But that's exactly what Chase Replogle has accomplished. In The 5 Masculine Instincts, he uncovers principles we can all find value in, from a source we didn't expect.”

The God of Small Places

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Postmodernism has come to small towns. And with it, a renewed concern for how to apply the unchanging gospel to a community that we may not recognize anymore—even if we grew up in it. In The God of Small Places, Jeff Clark and Glenn Daman have assembled a team of writers with enough theological heft and practical experience to help us navigate this new territory well. This helpful guide will provide a solid theological foundation for those who are called to engage in small town ministry effectively.”

The Weary Leader’s Guide to Burnout

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Pastors are facing an epidemic of burnout. If, like me, you’ve experienced it, you know how debilitating debilitating it can be. In The Weary Leader’s Guide to Burnout, Sean Nemecek offers practical, clinical, and biblical solutions to what we’re facing. I highly recommend this book if you’re experiencing the symptoms of burnout—or, better yet, before you get there.”
