The Cost of Control

Christian Living

“I am more and more convinced that self-awareness is a good start on the road to freedom, but what we really need is a trusted guide offering us a path. In The Cost of Control Sharon Hodde Miller skillfully takes a deep dive into control—why we want it, how we wield it, and how it gets hold of us. With plenty of study, keen observation, and confession, Sharon offers us a way to explore our own control dynamics so we can be freed from their grip. I appreciate how Sharon first shows us what control offers us (which is why we want it) before showing us the cost of it and ultimately how we can yield it to God. The Cost of Control is timely and essential for thriving nowadays.”

The Power of Place

Christian Living

“We live in a restless age obsessed with living our best possible life, and this has led to a profound disconnectedness and angst. Daniel Grothe gets to the heart of this angst by calling us to a deep rootedness that satisfies our souls. He invites us to deepen our sense of place, marriage, friendship, and spiritual community in a beautiful vision that calls us back to a better way. I’m grateful for Daniel’s voice. It is a voice forged from some hard-earned wisdom.”

The Resilient Pastor

Christian Living

“All pastors need a trusted guide to lead us into an unknown future, and Glenn Packiam has earned the right to be that trusted guide. Glenn is a pastor, an academic, and an artist, and perhaps most importantly, Glenn has displayed phenomenal resilience in his own ministry. Because of Glenn’s rare skill and experience, he has forged a helpful path for us in The Resilient Pastor. I commend this book to any pastor looking for a hopeful way forward.”

The Sacred Overlap

Christian Living

“If vibrant, transformative faith is going to thrive in our highly polarized and combative time, it will require robust and nuanced voices. J.R. Briggs is such a voice. His book The Sacred Overlap comes just in time to show us a better way. J.R. invites us into a deeper faith that holds tension, looks for the both/and, keeps balance. This book represents significant research and thought and in it. J.R. offers us a way of thinking and a set of practices that keep our faith fresh and nimble.”
