Alive

Children & Youth

“In the shifting sexual landscape of our time where anything goes and 'love wins,' our teenagers have readily accepted this new worldview. But when we, as parents and the church, fail to enter into the conversation, why should we be surprised when their cues come from culture? To that end, Alive is the perfect and necessary resource to help teenagers, parents, and the church evaluate the issues through the framework of God's good design of marriage and sex.”

Be Loved

Christian Living

“In the midst of my own teenagers' fears, insecurities, and self-doubt, what I want them above all to remember is God's never-ceasing look of love toward them. Be Loved is a book about just that—a girl met by a God whose radiant love rewrites the narrative of her thoughts, sets her free from self, and by his grace gives her the creativity to love others well. What a gift Emma Mae and this book will be to the many teen girls thirsty to know God's smile.”

Between Us Girls

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“In the midst of our busy lives, it is easy to forsake our best intentions for purposeful parenting. Adding to the struggle is not knowing how to enter in to the world of our girls with gospel truth. Between Us Girls provides a deliberate plan for bonding together over God's Word in a way that is fun, without sacrificing depth. What I love most though is Trish Donohue's ability to hand our daughters the biblical lenses to see each topic and the world around them rightly.”

Grounded in Grace

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“With front-row knowledge of the identity struggles of young people today, Jonathan Holmes provides parents with a biblical foundation and the practical help needed to engage adolescents in grace-filled, heart-level conversations about identity and worth. And for the parents uncertain on how to approach false identities linked to gender and sexuality, I am especially grateful for this book.”

Lead Them to Jesus

Children & Youth

“For every parent who has struggled to answer your teen's theological questions or give a gospel response to postmodern issues, this book is as much for you as it is for youth workers! A reference book you will want to keep handy!”

Longing for Christmas

Children & Youth

“While this is an Advent devotional written for teenagers, adults, I promise you will want this too! This book skillfully identifies the longings we all have and then provides the balm to our souls we all need. I can’t think of a better gift than a daily personal reminder of God’s promises fulfilled in Jesus.”

Radically Different

Children & Youth

“As parents we have the enormous opportunity to help shape our children's worldview. But without a gospel foundation to build upon in our ever-shifting culture, it's an uphill battle. That is why Radically Different is the book I wish my children had in middle school. In an engaging, easy-to-understand way, Champ Thornton gives young teenagers, through the lenses of good, bad, and new, a radically different way for viewing themselves and relationships with God and others.”

Teenagers and Mental Health

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“As well-versed in psychology as it is rooted in the gospel, this book is a must for anyone who works or lives with teenagers! While informative and practically useful for navigating mental health issues, what I most appreciate is the authors’ compassionate stance toward both the one struggling and the ones struggling alongside them.”

The Treasure

Children & Youth

“Marty has not only gifted parents and grandparents with another book that opens up God's word for children, but he has masterfully written it in a way I imagine spurring a lifelong journey of seeking to find in scripture the treasure of Jesus.”

What's Up? Elementary

Children & Youth

“When it comes to teaching kids the word of God, we often hold out cotton candy as a poor substitute for the gospel. Anything headier we assume is too hard to digest. But if teaching precedes understanding, we have the great opportunity to shape their understanding by giving them the meat of the gospel to chew on from the time they are young. What's Up Elementary is built on this premise and why I highly recommend it for all teachers and parents of elementary age students.”
