#ChurchToo

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“#ChurchToo is as important as it is devastating and will be helpful for survivors, clergy, and laypeople alike.”

All Who Are Weary

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“When faced with the topic of mental health, Emmy Kegler offers something that is sadly rare from a Christian pastor: companionship. Not the trite 'I'll pray for you' variety, although she certainly offers prayer, but the rich and deep kind. The kind that pulls up a chair and says, 'I struggle with this too, let's talk.' All Who Are Weary is a refreshing change of pace.”

Body Phobia

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book has the power to heal. As a therapist, I believe one of the precursors to healing is putting unspoken truth into language. Body Phobia does that for our bodies, for our selves. In it, Anderson has masterfully constructed a book that simultaneously challenges and liberates, all the while keeping readers enraptured by their storytelling. I wish I could put this book in front of everybody I know, saying, 'Read this, and don't stop until you are free.'”

Eucontamination

Theology

“From the moment I first heard the Hoards discuss eucontamination, I was captivated. Their insights into disgust, its entanglement with shame, and the possibility of its playful subversion on behalf of the way of truth and life are nothing short of transformative. This is a powerful book. One that just might change how you view the world.”

Heavy Burdens

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Few people writing at the intersection of faith and identity embody Rivera’s mix of clarity, challenge, and conviction. We would all do well to heed her invitation to a Christianity where LGBTQ+ people can put down the burdens heaped upon them by the church and instead live into the fullness of the gospel. This is an important book.”

Unashamed

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“I wish I could go back and give this book to fifteen-year-old me. Amber has expertly consolidated advice born from people who have previously walked this road of faith and coming out. If you find this book in your hands, consider yourself lucky. May it enlighten you on your path.”

Welcoming and Affirming

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This is the closest thing to a one-stop resource I've seen. I want to give it to everyone. Welcoming and Affirming should hold a prized place in the library of anyone who works with LGBTQ+ youth.”

What Makes You Bloom

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“This book is a start. Usually when people say something is 'a start,' they mean it in a bad way, as if there is something lacking. That's not how I mean it. There is no lack here. But What Makes You Bloom won't make your life better just by reading it. Instead, Kevin shows us how to begin. They show us how to start to shake free from what has kept us bound, and how to keep going when things get hard. It is a start, and if you're looking for a new start, this book will be a welcome guide.”
