A Compelling Faith in a Compromising Culture
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“My good friend Mike Tatlock has written a book 'for such a time as this.' A Compelling Faith in a Compromising Culture reflects Mike's years of ministering here in Portland, Oregon, a city that's been at the epicenter of so many of the cultural tensions facing our nation. There are time-proven ways that we, as the church, and as individual followers of Jesus, can work for the shalom of our cities and neighborhoods without compromising biblical truth. Anyone burdened by the season we're in and looking for practical ways forward needs to read this book.”
Beautiful, Disappointing, Hopeful
Christian Living
“Drew Hyun develops here a case for Christian belief and practice that feels fresh, yet also deeply grounded in Scripture and personal experience. This book is deeply moving and profoundly encouraging. The good news of the gospel is universal and timeless, yet we need ways to enculturate it in every time and place. If you long for those you love to experience the beauty of following Jesus, give them this book.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Beyond Awkward by Beau Crosetto is a passionate, compelling wake-up call to all Jesus-followers to be intentional in turning everyday normal conversations into conversations about Jesus. Evangelism can and should be the normal lifestyle of every Christian. It shouldn't be awkward. Crosetto gives his readers great principles and encouragement to help Jesus-followers make evangelism a natural and exciting part of life.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“The church in North America is so in need of effective road maps that guide us in what effective and practical discipleship looks like. What does it mean to apprentice ourselves to Jesus, our Messiah and Lord? What does it look like to raise up a generation of Jesus followers who can withstand the cultural and spiritual headwinds we’re facing with joy, grace, and spiritual power? My friend Justin Kendrick has given us a great gift in Bury Your Ordinary. He’s lived out and field-tested what he shares and is seeing ‘fruit that remains.’ It is possible for believers new and old to grow in maturity and become active participants in helping the kingdom flourish, even in these challenging times. I highly recommend this book to pastors and leaders of all kinds who long to see our churches grow and thrive.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Fatherlessness has become an epidemic in America. The church needs to wake up to this crisis. In Church for the Fatherless, pastor-evangelist Mark Strong provides a how-to manual to help mobilize churches to stop the epidemic and mentor those devastated by this critical issue. . . . Mark shows how the faith-based community, working together, can provide hope to the fatherless.”
Work, Money & Leadership
“This book is a study of what has already taken place through several consequential leaders, but it is also a challenge to every Christ-follower to continue and multiply that work.”
Evangelism & Missions
“As I read Dare to Believe!, I found myself moved by the faith and vision required to begin the first ever satellite network in the Middle East aimed at communicating the good news. Terry and Jackie’s story was thrilling! Kingdom progress always requires steps of faith, especially in places where such faith can come at a very high cost. We need more believers willing to do whatever it takes to share the story of Jesus in compelling ways. May God use this story to inspire many more people toward bold action!”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“This book will inspire us to allow our unique, created genius to display God to our world.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Faith for the Curious is for anyone struggling to find effective ways to show and share the life they’ve found in Jesus in this challenging cultural moment. Drawing from his decades in student ministry leadership and pulling from thorough research on the Spiritually Curious among us, Mark gives us hope that there are paths forward—ways to better express the hope we have and ways to become more curious ourselves, for our own good. People are more open than we realize. Allow God to use this book to free you from fear and make you a light to many!”
Evangelism & Missions
“post everything” days. Many have retreated, discouraged, from the front lines, sure that there’s nothing to be done. My friend Craig lays out seven practical, strategic changes we can and should make in our approach to evangelism. This isn’t one more “sure-fire program” but rather an inspirational journey that can help us become more effective. Be renewed as you read and rediscover what you were made for!”
Christian Living
“I’ve been encouraged in every encounter I’ve had with Scott. He’s a relentlessly positive, joyful evangelist that practices what he preaches every single day. So many of us struggle in sharing our faith. We need simple, powerful tools to help us experience the joy of seeing people respond to the Good News. Do we believe God can and will use us, as we obey? That the Holy Spirit is going before us every day? That evangelism is joining the Holy Spirit in a conversation he’s already having with someone? Read Jesus at the Door and get ready for the journey of a lifetime.”
Christian Living
“My hometown of Portland, Oregon, is filled with wonderful people, especially millennials, who gravely misunderstand who Jesus is and have little understanding of the ways his followers are making our city and the world a better place. My friend John S. Dickerson has written a much-needed book to help alleviate that! The story of the church, of the community of people filled by the Spirit of Jesus for more than two thousand years, is a story of radical love and justice that has shaped education and healthcare, catapulted scientific inquiry, helped to abolish slavery, and led the way in protecting human rights. Understanding this impact can encourage wavering believers and soften the hearts of many skeptics.”

Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“I deeply admire Ron and Agape, the community he leads, as they embody the principles Ron highlights from his study of Luke. Jesus Unleashed presents not only solid exposition of Scripture but a practical challenge for Christ's followers. I have great hope for the future of the church as we reach out to the marginalized people in our society today.”
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“I greatly respect John Mark Comer. He is a close friend and solid teacher. He clearly understands the obstacles facing this generation and powerfully speaks into the pain and frustration so many people are facing. Everyone would benefit from the truth laid out so plainly in Loveology.”
Discipleship & Christian Education
“In a world with so much confusion about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus, the Harneys not only shed light, they lay out biblical principles and practices that can lead us toward the life of fruitfulness we long for. So many have failed to see (and live into) the intimate connection between evangelism and discipleship. Organic Disciples fills this major void.”
History & Biography
“A beautiful, raw testimony of the radical grace of Christ in Herman’s life and how God continues to save others through Pastor Mendoza and his ministry. I am blessed to know him!”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“My friends Eric Swanson and Rick Rusaw have done us all a huge favor by updating their previous work and creating The Externally Focused Quest: Becoming the Best Church FOR the Community. Social and technological changes can seem frightening and challenging but they can also lead us to the kind of humility we need to become more effective in our missional efforts. We can change. We can become more effective. This book can help!”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“No doubt you will be changed by Clark's powerful stories of personal ministry with the marginalized and his vision of hope through our loving God.”
