“In this immersive experience of a book, Jesus’ life leaps right off the page and into our lives with disruption and hope and healing. Jesus Journey reminded me of not only why I follow Jesus but why I love him so.”
“A practical antidote to despair, hopelessness, and aimless consumption, this book offers a robust and healing path to well-being for all of us. The Woodleys are wise and trustworthy guides for restoration and embodied goodness within the community of creation.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
Foreword
“Knock at the Sky isn’t apologetics for progressives; it’s a much needed half-step over from the tightly managed paths of your past into the wildflowers off the trail, closer to the trees, with a view on the vast horizon still ahead. There is room to breathe here.”
Discipleship & Christian Education
“Bold and wise, Mentor for Life is an intentional discipleship guide for the women who officially or unofficially lead others. With refreshing boldness, this book trains and equips leaders for a great purpose.”
My Body Is Not a Prayer Request
Church Leadership & Ministry
“By times wise and tender, then grab-you-by-the-lapels prophetic truth-telling, Kenny’s passion, anger, and hope for disability justice is utterly embodied. I found this book to be not only a call to justice but an invitation to deep blessing. I will be pressing this book into the hands of every ministry leader I know.”
Christian Living
“In the years I have known Emmy Kegler, I have found her to be everything you will discover in these pages: wise, nurturing, pastoral, anointed, strong, honest, and deeply loving. She has given us such a gift with this book. I found myself weeping, not in sorrow, but in gratitude and awe as she wrote of God and Scripture and story and the ones who are lost. Reading One Coin Found was like hearing the gospel for the first time all over again and remembering just why this story is so glorious. For those who are the lost coin, the prodigal son, or the lost sheep, Kegler is the pastor you deserved all along, and just wait, you're about to learn what it really means to be fully found.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Cuando las conversaciones sobre el discipulado o vivir para el reino de Dios parecen ser cerebrales e inalcanzables, yo me dirijo a escritoras como Marlena, que tiene los pies plantados firmemente en la tierra. Ella nos da un camino para caminar y prácticas que encarnan nuestras grandes esperanzas y sueños sobre las sendas extrañas de Jesús. Si alguna vez te has preguntado cómo los últimos serán los primeros (y que significa eso para alguien con privilegios), Marlena es una compañera y guía fiel para ti. Ella es valiente y pastoral—una combinación poco común—y, lo mejor de todo, ella es completamente real. Ella nunca ha perdido de vista la gente para quienes el evangelio es buenas noticias, y hay una invitación para todos en sus palabras.”

“Hillary is such a worthy guide, the kind you can trust in the most dangerous wildernesses of your body and soul and mind.”
Women
“What a powerful book. With hard-won wisdom, repentance, and clear-eyed humility, Idelette takes us with her on the transformative journey of recovering racists from South Africa to Canada and beyond. One of the few white voices I trust in this space, she models repentance, truth-telling, and reparations as part of our collective work of peacemaking and liberation. Idelette is one of my greatest teachers, and I recommend her work with my whole heart.”
Christian Living
“Oh my goodness, this is Rachel’s best book yet—and that’s saying something. In this beautifully honest, hopefully wry book, Rachel speaks for so many of us. I believe that her hard-fought words will heal many wounds. A must-read for all who love Jesus but struggle with loving or understanding or finding their place in the Church.”
Seeing and Being Jesus in the World
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“Through the social and political lens of Matthew 25, the ever-trustworthy Mihee Kim-Kort teaches us that love and justice and peace include our kids, but she doesn’t stop at theory. She guides us into practices, prayers, and postures to disciple well. This compassionate, inclusive, and clarifying book is a gift to all of us who are spiritual caregivers to teens and kids.”

Women
“Listen, you need Laura Tremaine in your life. She has such a gift for the real, deep, life-changing sort of friendship that eludes so many of us. If female friendship has felt like a foreign land without a map, Laura is your best guide—funny, warm, knowledgeable, honest, relatable, and just the right sort of best-friend-bossy. She will guide you not only to deeper friendships with other women but to a deeper understanding and compassion for yourself. I love this book.”

“Sobriety is absolutely a pathway of spiritual awakening. I’m so grateful to Erin Jean Warde for this necessary and hopeful book on the joy that can be found in a sober spirituality. You are in good hands here. As she shows us, a mindful relationship with alcohol is a beautiful part of how we evolve into the freedom of being fully awake and alive. What a healing gift to the church!”
Christian Living
“Richard Beck is one of my favorite theologians precisely because of what he manages to do in Stranger God —he gathers the ideals and big hopes of Christianity in from our someday-in-the-sweet-bye-and-bye into our actual lives with grace and humor and practicality. He is equal parts pastoral and prophetic. After all, it's all well and good to say that Christians will be known by our love: it's something entirely different to actually love people who you find offensive or wrong or even just different. Through this wise and warm exploration of the Little Way, you will be discipled into the sweet ways of Jesus, whose love transforms everything—even us.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“The Book of Waking Up truly is for all of us. In these pages you will not find the dreaded alarm clock, no. This is a glorious song of joy, of honesty, and of wonder-working power. These lyrical, honest, humble words will open eyes, unclench fists, and cause souls to rise up in love.”
Christian Living
“Inventive, engaging, compelling, and filled with freedom, this book will help you see the wonder of our Jesus more clearly. Here is very simply the truth about Jesus and His relationship with women: He loved us. What a powerful truth for women in the world today! Jesus is always the hero of the story. Through this book, we see and know that He is the hero of our stories too.”
Theology
“Hospitable yet bold, this book reimagines a future for the church that prioritizes justice in the way of Jesus. Joash’s deep love for the church shines from every page as he invites us all into the group project of liberation.”
The Way of the Dragon or the Way of the Lamb
Christian Living
“This is a book every Christian leader needs to read and soon. Nuanced, wise, pastoral, and yet challenging, The Way of the Dragon or the Way of the Lamb will shape more than your leadership and your ministry, it will shape your soul and reorient you to following Jesus. In our day and age, this is a message we need desperately.”
World Religions
“Wise, political, powerful, and deeply healing. Hillary is such a worthy guide, the kind you can trust in the most dangerous wildernesses of your body and soul and mind. I could not be more grateful for this book.”
