Church Leadership & Ministry

“We are living in one of the most consequential times of the human story. Divides along economic, racial, cultural, and gender lines continue to widen. Conversations from pulpits to playgrounds, from halls of government to boardrooms and classrooms have been stymied to advance a way forward on these issues and a host of others. One entity that has not been consistent in these discussions is the church; she has yet to live out her full redemptive potential. Nancy and Samantha, as storytellers, speak with honesty, wisdom, and vulnerability as to what the church can be—and indeed must be—in this pivotal moment. Hear their lament. Embrace the hope they offer in the transcendent.”

The Crucibles That Shape Us

Christian Living

“Martin Luther King Jr. said, 'If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.' King acknowledges that crucible moments are inevitable—and often out of our control. But within our control is how we choose to respond. In The Crucibles That Shape Us, Gayle Beebe calls us to consider how we meet moments of hardship and disruption—what we learn of ourselves, how we might invite God in, and how toembrace triumph on the other side. May we answer the call and keep moving forward, as God gives us grace.”
