The Deep Down Things

Christian Living

“The Deep Down Things is no regular, feel-good story. It is a modern epiphany of forest sounds and mud-caked hearts, gripping and transcendent. Amber and Seth Haines, at their shimmering best, nurture hope (and humor) from our darkest nights. Held in the sweet spot where honesty and faithfulness collide, this book will rattle your bones. It will shake your secrets loose. It will lead you to the feast.”

True You

Christian Living

“In True You Michelle DeRusha paints the ordinary world as something worthy of our attention, inviting us to uncover hidden beauty as we uncover within us the image of God. This journey to our truest self is paved with small moments, attentiveness, and gut-level honesty—payment we can all afford, though not without discomfort as we go. True You made me want to slow down, tell the truth, and set up camp in the wide, wild presence of God, where anything is possible. I am grateful for this luminous book.”

Waging Peace

History & Biography

“Once in a while, we encounter a story so vivid, so personal, it drags us from complacency and propels us toward possibility. This is one of those rare books. Told through combat boots and teacups, mothers and neighbors, enemies and their absence, Waging Peace promises something more valuable than security and taking sides. Bold, tender, and courageous to the core, this book has changed my life forever.”

We Will Feast

Preaching & Worship

“Through humble loaves and take-out pizza, our tired ideas about worship take a truer shape. We Will Feast is everything I want in a book—rich prose, decadent storytelling, the taste of possibility. I’m already hungry for more.”

When Thoughts and Prayers Aren't Enough

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“This book is a rallying cry for a culture that has simply not cared enough to tackle the problem of gun violence. Taylor Schumann invites us into her pain, then guides us toward thoughtful consideration and practical, long-haul action. Vulnerably told, packed with both data and empathy, our list of excuses ends within these pages.”

Wild and Free

Women

“Where social jockeying is the norm and self-worth is measured in clicks, our hearts are in exile. Where do I fit? And can this world even handle me? Jess Connolly and Hayley Morgan’s words are gospel-soaked arrows of hope shot through the desert noise. As it turns out, the opposite of lost is free.”

You Don't Need a Calling

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Damon Garcia is a prophet howling from the ignored outer edges of empire: Wake up! Wake up! Through his incisive lens and piercing storytelling, we are invited to dig beneath the status quo and imagine a present reality where everyone thrives.”
