A History of Christianity in America

World Religions

“Mark Granquist’s A History of Christianity in America offers a thorough and insightful exploration of the complexities of American Christianity, weaving historical depth with modern reflections. This book provides a compelling narrative that both scholars and general readers will find invaluable for understanding how Christian traditions have shaped, and been shaped by, American culture.”

Future-Focused Church

Church Leadership & Ministry

“If I could summarize the purpose of Future-Focused Church, it’s this quote: ‘We don’t want your church to go the way of Blockbuster.’ Using a wealth of data from in-depth interviews, church training cohorts, and decades of hard-won personal experience, Powell, Mulder, and Chang provide a process for church leaders to think concretely about not only where their congregation will be in a decade but also how to take tangible action now to move closer to that goal.”

Invisible Jesus

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Invisible Jesus takes a deep dive into what it means for people to wrestle with their faith and come out on the other side. Instead of shaming deconstructors for going through their own “dark night of the soul,” Scot McKnight and Tommy Phillips argue that this reevaluation is a natural part of the faith process. This book can serve as a balm for those who are struggling to make sense of religion and for those who are worried by the number of people who seem to be leaving the church behind.”

Pilgrim Journey

Discipleship & Christian Education

“The last hundred years of Western society have been a relentless quest for certainty. In Pilgrim Journey, Curtis Freeman reminds us that the heart of the Christian faith is a mystery that will never be fully explored or completely explained. Yet in trying to untangle that mystery, we find purpose, meaning, and hope.”

The Multigenerational Church Crisis

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Bryan Chapell’s The Multigenerational Church Crisis offers timely and crucial insights for churches seeking to bridge the gap between generations. With a clear focus on fostering unity and mission, Chapell helps leaders and congregations understand the challenges of today while offering hope and strategies for nurturing faith across all ages.”
