Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Agnes Howard reflects on her mission early in this beautifully lyrical book that is history, memoir, and cultural reflection all at once: ‘Historical thinking is an accessible way for ordinary people to make sense of ordinary life.’ As she renders ordinary life processes extraordinary, she shows how reflecting on the history of our own times and places can help us find a compass and orientation in a disorienting and disoriented world.”
Arts & Literature
“In one of my favorite poems in this collection, Sarah Reardon reflects on Vergil’s Aeneid through the eyes of Lavinia, Aeneas’s promised bride. ‘Here seek, here find—this, your promised homeland.’ Reardon presents beautiful visions of home as a place filled with love, people, and promises. Poem after poem reasserts: This home—on earth, in this life—is but a foretaste. It is not our ultimate delight, but what a delight it still is!”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“This is an ambitious book of the sort that only two seasoned theologians and (equally important) true lovers of Jesus could conceive of and write. And it is a book Christians need in this time of war, political turmoil, and threats to human flourishing around the world—many of these, the fruit of arrogant earthly empires. What should the church’s response be to such profound brokenness? And what should the response of individual Christians be? The book’s arguments marry political theology with sound history, both ancient and modern, all to show that ‘the kingdom of God is not from this world, but it is emphatically for this world.’ History shows that other lords and kings will rise and fall, trampling others underfoot in the process, but there will always, only be one lord and king. And that is a call to action for us all.”
Apologetics
“This is a dinner party to savor and remember. Through a multi-course Socratic dialogue with Christians, skeptics, and adherents of other faiths, Louis Markos presents the gospel in a way that is faithful yet fresh and accessible for the twenty-first century.”
Twelve Classic Christmas Stories
Fiction
“Few activities thrill the mind and the spirit as much as reading aloud a good book with kids on a winter evening. Tim Larsen has assembled here just this kind of delight, perfect for the Advent season. Whether you are homeschooling or just want a good Advent read to enjoy with family or friends or even alone (after all, you are never truly alone when in the company of a good book), the stories in this book will remind you repeatedly of the beauty of literature, love, family, the ordinary life, and most of all, God.”
Christian Living
“This book is a beautiful gift that college students and their parents and educators so desperately need right now. Perry Glanzer's argument is simple, yet the implications are anything but that: To succeed in college and in life, students need something greater than academic efforts and professional aspirations. They need to know that they are beloved persons made in God's image—and this knowledge will change everything. This is the gospel, and in our age of chaos, stress, and ever-encroaching AI, we need to hear this truth, for it will set us free.”
Discipleship & Christian Education
“How might we teach our kids to love reading and love God? Bringing together her callings as both scholar and mother, LuElla D’Amico offers relatable and encouraging insights for Christian parents on reading literature with kids of all ages devotionally, virtuously, and joyfully.”
