Church Leadership & Ministry
“Andrew Bauman goes beyond the obvious that the church has not been safe for victims of abuse. In this book he gathers together a chorus of women who love Jesus yet sing the same sad song. Striving for purpose and place in God’s church, yet finding themselves dismissed, devalued, and at times degraded because they are female. We must do better.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“Dr. Alison is a bold and courageous messenger for today’s Christian woman. She exposes toxic teaching that keeps women feeling small, dependent, passive, and silent. The Best of You is a practical, Biblical road map for a woman to break free from who she thinks, feels, or has been told she is, and take steps to grow into who God created her to be.”

Marriage, Family & Relationships
“Praise for The Christian Mama’s Guide to Having a Baby The Christian Mama’s Guide to Having a Baby is chock-full of sassy humor, practical tips, and godly wisdom to navigate through the pregnancy maze with truth and grace.

But even now, she can’t wait to read it.”

“Nancy Pearcey’s new book gives us a salient and needed perspective on what’s happened to shape the psyche and character of today’s man, and it’s not positive. Working with so many Christian women in toxic and abusive marriages tells me we must do better. God calls us to do better. Pastors, parents, teachers, and counselors: read this book and help our young boys learn to become good men.”
History & Biography
“Mary’s memoir is real and raw and beautifully written. She shows the ugliness of humanity and the beauty of redemption. I laughed and I cried, and it made me want to be a better writer. Thin Places will be put in my waiting room to help others find hope and see that Jesus loves and God is present, even in the loneliest and most horrific circumstances.”
Bible Studies & Devotionals
“If you’ve ever struggled with the ‘I’m not _______enough’ syndrome, this book is for you. You don’t have to be good enough, smart enough, or spiritual enough to be wildly loved by a good and generous God.”
Christian Living
“Although we are called to love unconditionally, God does not require us to persevere in relationships that are toxic, dangerous, and soul crushing. This is especially good news for individuals in destructive marriages. The chapter on toxic marriage is so helpful, not just for suffering individuals, but for well-meaning people who often misapply biblical passages to encourage those in toxic marriages to keep enduring for Jesus. God does not value the sanctity of marriage more than the safety and sanity of the people in it.”
