“It can be so difficult to know where to begin or what resources are available for family devotions. For that reason, I am so thankful for this excellent series for kids, teens, and families from Crossway! Champ Thornton’s volume, 10 Questions about Salvation, is a wonderful starting place for any parents who want to have important spiritual conversations with their children. These warm and engaging devotions are the perfect length to help your family grow together as you talk about God’s gracious salvation for all who believe.”

“Some women seem to grow increasingly lovely with every year that passes. I want to learn from women who display that type of beauty and grace. That’s why I’m so thankful for Aging with Grace. This book is a wealth of wisdom for women of all ages to learn from God’s word the secret of aging with grace—I highly recommend it!”
Children & Youth
“Too often, the stories of faithful Black women have been lost to history. Thankfully, Jasmine Holmes has done the hard work of bringing these stories to light by chasing down footnotes and searching through archives for her new book, Carved in Ebony. Reading these stories will encourage your faith, inspire your courage, and remind you of God’s extraordinary work in the midst of the everyday faithfulness of his people.”

“Too often our search for contentment leads us to sources unable to bear the weight of our desires. We trust in money, relationships, and circumstances, only to find ourselves increasingly dissatisfied. This book helps to clarify our understanding of contentment, as well as redirect our hopes to the One who is able to provide lasting joy. Raymond combines wisdom from church fathers with modern insights and examples that make this book readable, applicable, and needed.”
Children & Youth
“Creative God Colorful Us by Trillia Newbell is a delightful and welcoming book that allows children to understand the beauty of diversity within the storyline of Scripture. Various chapters consider the perfection of God's creation, the devastating effects of the Fall, the good news of redemption, and how we can love others as we await our heavenly home. This book helps children understand why relationships are so often broken and graciously points them to the perfect rescuer we all need—Jesus.”

“For the weary, the discouraged, the sick, and the suffering, the psalms of lament express the anguish of our souls.

With wisdom and compassion, she helps readers bring their pain before the Lord while holding fast to his comfort and grace. This study is a balm for those walking through suffering—and for those who walk beside them.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“The church needs gospel-centered, theologically minded, servant-hearted deacons who care for others out of a deep love for Jesus. Smethurst offers historical context, biblical insight, and practical examples of this vital role in congregational life.”

“So often in our search for satisfaction, we’re like treasure hunters wandering without a map. We know what we want—joy, peace, goodness—but we seem to be searching in all the wrong places. In Discovering the Good Life, Tim Savage wisely explains the story of Scripture using three trees as guideposts. If you want to experience abundant life, this book faithfully leads you to the treasure of all treasures and the giver of all goodness: Jesus.”

“Steve DeWitt's new book, Enjoying God in Everything, is an invitation to explore the beauty of God expressed through creation and Christ in a way that leads us to greater wonder and worship. Like a refreshing drink on a hot day, this book reminds us to sit and savor all the loveliness of God as we gaze upon His goodness.”

“The siren call of self promises much but provides little. While the world tells us to want more, do more, and be more, Jen Oshman turns our eyes from ourselves and helps us to find our lives in Jesus, the giver of every good and perfect gift. Written with warmth and wisdom, Enough about Me is an encouragement to something better, something richer, and something true.”

“When it comes to spiritual growth, we’re often hoping for big changes to happen overnight. While we may long for a fast sprint toward holiness, Glenna Marshall reminds us that spiritual growth usually consists of ordinary moments of everyday faithfulness. Everyday Faithfulness is a needed and encouraging book that points us to the joy of walking with God one day at a time, one step at a time.”

“Finding Freedom in Christ is a helpful and enriching guide through Paul’s letter to the Galatians, revealing the life-changing truths of the gospel. With wisdom and clarity, Portia Collins encourages readers to apply these truths to their daily lives and embrace the freedom Christ offers. This Bible study is an excellent resource for any woman longing to grow in her faith and walk freely in the grace of God.”
Women
“The siren call of self sings loudly in our current cultural moment. Even as Christians, we easily fall prey to the false promises of self-focus, self-care, and self-love. With a refreshing dose of biblical truth, wisdom, and insight, Lydia Brownback invites us to consider our ways with fruitful reflection. Flourish is a book every woman should read. I highly recommend it!”
Christian Living
“Glory in the Ordinary is a needed reminder of the beauty and blessing of work within the home. Courtney Reissig reveals how serving others in small ways builds a lifetime of glorifying God. The simple tasks of cooking a meal, taking out the trash, fixing a car, or washing laundry might seem mundane, but offered to God, these daily tasks have kingdom significance.”
Children & Youth
“Growing in Godliness is one of the best resources I’ve read on the topic of discipleship in the teen years. Lindsey Carlson is relatable, engaging, understanding, wise, and laugh-out-loud funny as she helps teen girls grasp their need for God and learn how to grow in faith. I plan to read this book with my daughter and will be recommending it for all her friends!”

“Our world glimmers with false hopes, offering financial gains, political power, and earthly efforts as conduits of blessing that promise much but fail to provide the peace and unity we desire. We need a better hope if we want to persevere. Thankfully, Irwyn Ince's new book Hope Ain't a Hustle wisely guides us through the book of Hebrews, reminding us that the object of our hope—Jesus himself—is the power of our endurance.”
Christian Living
“This world has beauty and delight as well as brokenness and pain. As joy and sorrow mingle together, we long for words to express both our cries for deliverance and our songs of rejoicing. Dane Ortlund’s new devotional, In the Lord I Take Refuge, invites us to commune with God through the words of the Psalms. These encouraging daily reflections will guide your prayers, refresh your heart, and strengthen your soul as you walk with God in the ups and downs of life.”
Jesus and the Gift of Friendship
Children & Youth
“We all need friends. We know the joy they can bring, and we hope to help our children develop lasting friendships. Trillia Newbell’s Jesus and the Gift of Friendship is a warm and welcoming way to talk about the gift of friendship with our children, as well as the pain of loneliness. This book’s engaging story and beautiful illustrations will help children learn how to make good friends and be a good friend.”
