Grounded in the Gospel

Christian Living

“This book considers one of the ‘ancient ways’ as vital for the present and future health of the church but emphasizes two critical factors: learning is important and catechesis is about the holistic development of the whole people of God. Christian learning needs to make a comeback in the church. This book will help.”

The Bible Story Handbook

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“Ted Ward once asserted that ‘Christian education is neither.’ For generations, the church has outsourced responsibility for Bible learning and faith development to curriculum publishers. However, responsible publishers have never presumed that their material can be much more than introduction to the Bible. If Christian education is impoverished, the church, not the publisher, is responsible. This book looks like a curriculum. It is not. It is a description of a method, with abundant examples, that may assist congregations to become ‘hermeneutical communities’ exercising responsible use of Scripture as they design learning experiences for the people of God.”

Wasting Time with God

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“The testimony of this book is that relationship--even friendship--with God is possible. More importantly, the stunning affirmation of the book is that the eternal God wants friendship with his people.”
