Amazing Grace In the Midst of Grief

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“"Very readable, filled with stories, alert to the dynamics of grief, and embraced by a lived out understanding of God's amazing grace, this book addresses the difficult problem of grief with the sensibilities and wisdom of a pastor's heart and the honed intellect of one who has thought long and deeply about these matters. I recommend this book without hesitation or qualification.”

Day by Day

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“With the investigative powers of a newspaper man and the spiritual sensitivity of a pastor, this wonderful text for biblical study provides exactly what people need. The introduction alone is worth the price of the book. From there we receive an outline of each book of the Bible, with brief, illuminating comments and just enough questions to take one deeper into the text. I recommend it with enthusiasm.”

Ethics and Spirituality

“What a breath of fresh air it is to learn from Roy May that spirituality and ethics are fundamentally about building convivial community! His deeply communal yet clearly personal approach to ethics and spirituality express a welcome and wise word. He offers exercises for personal or group use that are quite concrete and significantly connected to today's issues and concerns. Accessibly written, this book will be helpful for small groups, adult classes, and retreat settings.”

My Heart in My Mouth

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Ted Loder is the poet of prayer. I know no one who so movingly and honestly brings us before God in prayers that touch the personal and the social dimensions of our lives. I suspect that I will pray from this book the rest of my life.”

Remnant Christianity in a Post-Christian World

“This extraordinary book is the most comprehensive summary I know of analyses and data covering the United States today. Jones describes a nihilistic postmodernism, a rapacious capitalism, the plutocratic destruction of democracy, the illusory construction of our sensibilities and appetites, and more! These dynamics are basic to the diminishment of our churches and an ongoing assault on the common good. Into this morass Jones offers a significant remnant strategy for dying churches.”

Ruth, Esther, Song of Songs, and Judith

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“"Well researched, accessibly written, with a deft touch of humor, this book will serve as a fine text for college students, study groups in the church, and as a stimulating guide for pastors preaching on these uppity women.”

Table Talk

Preaching & Worship

“Biblically rich, filled with stories, and accessibly written, this fine book offers a wealth of material on the Eucharist for those who preach and lead worship every Sunday and provides for laity an informing conversation that will enrich the practice of this central sacrament. Even more, Graves offers an introduction to the ‘new’ dinner church movement, replete with examples from across the United States along with his own reflections on this innovative movement. Do yourself a favor and read this book.”
