Jesus Shaped Life
$26.99When many of us hear the word theology, we conjure up visions of stuffy old guys in dark clothing, scratching a pen across paper (or maybe a quill across parchment!) and assume that it’s not for us. But at its most basic, theology is just words ( logos) about God ( theos). Conversations, if you will, about the most important part of our lives–our good, loving, and grace-filled God.
With her signature style and humor, bestselling Bible teacher Lisa Harper invites you into this life-changing conversation. She makes theology fun, practical, and applicable, explaining how academic-sounding concepts–such as imago Dei, atonement, the Trinity, the transcendence and immanence of Christ, and much more–are actually daily realities that make an enormous difference in how we live our lives, how we treat other people, and how we understand our own relationship to our Creator.
If you want to grow closer to God and take a more active role in your community of faith, it’s time to take your understanding of God to the next level with sound theology rooted in Scripture. Let Lisa be your (very entertaining) guide!

Courage To Change
$27.00Change is inevitable. And sometimes it’s confusing and difficult, even when it’s good. We can’t keep change from coming, but we can allow it to transform us rather than derail us by facing it and embracing it through the lens of God’s unchanging promises to us.
We’ve all heard the saying, “The only constant is change.” Sometimes the changes we face, both expected and unexpected, can make our lives feel ungrounded and unsteady. And when we react to change with fear, an opportunity for growth can turn into overwhelming anxiety that locks us into situations, relationships, and ways of thinking and being that prevent us from living in the fullness of who we truly are in Christ.
Beloved Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer wants us to know that even when we feel like the ground beneath our feet is shifting, we can stand firm on the promise of God’s Word that He will see us through. With her signature insight and timeless wisdom, Joyce shows us how to align our emotional reactions to changes with the truth of God’s promise that He will work all changes for good in our lives, even the most painful and difficult ones. In The Courage to Change, you will learn how to:
*Embrace change as a necessary part of growth
*Replace a mindset of fear with a mindset of opportunity
*And live fully within the uncertainty of change while maintaining peace.We will all face changes again and again throughout our lifetimes. We don’t have to live dreading the challenges that these changes bring. We can equip ourselves to become people of bravery, optimism, and hope in an ever-changing world, because we have God’s assurance that His character and His promises will never change.
Become a change warrior and embrace the courage to change.
The Courage to Change also contains study questions at the end of each chapter for individual or group reflection.

Letting Go Finding You
$19.99Rethink everything you believe about yourself because of your Enneagram number, and embrace the virtues of your type.
Hunter Mobley has been an Enneagram teacher for years, working with people who have read all the books and completed all the programs, only to find they are still getting caught in the same patterns of behavior. Too many of us are stuck on the treadmill of consumer spirituality, clinging to the illusion that we are in charge of our own spiritual growth and development. But the path of true transformation, according to Mobley, isn’t in doing more, but in doing less–in letting go of control and adopting a contemplative posture that will naturally lead us to our true self.
The key to unlocking this contemplative path is in understanding a fundamental but often-missed aspect of Enneagram teaching: the Enneagram virtues. Most of us focus our Enneagram work on trying to overcome the passion of our Enneagram number. Sometimes referred to as the “”sin,”” this is the expression of our personality that habitually gets us into trouble and blocks us from growth. The lesser-known virtues, on the other hand, describe the God-image in us and are the best articulations of our true selves. The Enneagram mystery–hiding in plain sight–is that how we have come to know ourselves (reflected by our passion) is the opposite of who we truly are (which is reflected by our virtue). We don’t have to struggle against our passion; we can simply let go and embrace the virtue that has always been at our center.
Letting Go, Finding You will show how a contemplative spiritual path, informed by the Enneagram, will allow you to finally stop striving after false promises and start surrendering to the truest version of yourself.

Silent Horizons
$32.99He’s gone behind enemy lines countless times before. But this time, he’s going alone.
Foster Quinn is more than a former Force Recon Marine. He’s a husband. A father. A faithful brother to his teammates.

Despite his inner demons–or maybe because of them–Foster can’t walk away from his brothers.
Then he gets the chance to step in where his best friend left off, assuming a cover identity in Iran that will get him close to the arms dealer and pave the way for a critical mission. On his own in a new country, he must carefully choose who to trust. An Iranian taxi driver. An American hunter. A British oil executive. One wrong move could spell disaster. Not just for the mission, but for Foster.
The clock is ticking. A team of tier-one warriors is set to plummet through the night sky in enemy territory. They’ve trained for this. But their success hinges on just one man.

Multigenerational Church Crisis
$83.31Harness the strengths of every generation to create a church that endures
– open the lines of communication
– appreciate the experiences that shaped each generation in your church
– unite in one mission to impact your community and the worldIt may seem hard for younger Christians to believe that people over 50 were raised during an era when 90 percent of Americans identified as Christian. These older believers were once part of a majority group that understood the mission of the church was to take control of our culture to halt its evils. At the same time, Christians under 50 have lived their entire lives perceiving themselves as a minority that needs to make credible their faith to a secular, pluralistic culture.
These distinct experiences and perceptions have a profound impact on the priorities different generations have for church ministry. It’s no wonder that younger and older believers don’t always see eye to eye! But imagine what could be accomplished in the name of Christ if we could better understand each other and turn that understanding into shared purpose and aligned priorities?
Backed by thorough research, this eminently practical and hopeful book from pastor and scholar Bryan Chapell shows you how to open the lines of communication, appreciate the experiences that shaped each generation in your church, and unite in one mission to impact your community and the world.

– replace discouragement with hope
– work alongside God to effect meaningful change
– encounter rich biblical teaching and remarkable true storiesHopelessness is everywhere. It doesn’t discriminate.

With rich biblical teaching and remarkable stories, Heath Adamson invites you to exchange what is with what could be. The hope he writes of isn’t wishful thinking. It’s a biblical, transformative, future-focused force that breaks through our circumstances, and makes it possible for us to work alongside God to effect meaningful change.
If you have been discouraged or overwhelmed, you are not alone. By seeing beyond your life, you will discover how true hope can change your mindset and reignite your passion to serve others.

Romans
$45.00Step into the profound world of Paul’s Letter to the Romans, where renowned Pauline scholar and pastor Susan Eastman brings the text to life with rich pastoral and theological insights. This commentary doesn’t just analyze Scripture but invites readers into an encounter with the transformative power of the gospel that shaped Paul’s original audience and continues to resonate today.
With preaching and teaching at its heart, Susan Eastman explores Romans as a dynamic proclamation of God’s faithfulness–a message that warms hearts, fires wills, and calls humanity into liberated service to God and one another. Through her keen attention to the letter’s historical context, literary artistry, and theological urgency, Eastman reveals the living presence of a God who keeps promises, remains faithful to Israel, and, through Jesus Christ, sets creation free with abundant grace.
Readers are guided through the contexts of the early Roman house churches and Paul’s urgent call for unity and solidarity across cultural and class divides. Close attention to Paul’s rhetoric highlights his use of Scripture and his audience-involving writing style.

Designed to inspire and equip preachers and teachers, this commentary highlights the enduring relevance of Romans’ many-layered theological message. At its core lies a singular truth: the good news of Jesus Christ, God’s Son in the flesh, who unites all people in revealing God’s righteousness and boundless grace to the world.

Undaunted Joy : The Revolutionary Act Of Cultivating Delight
$19.99What if we weren’t intimidated by the task of living with full-throated joy?
In this collection of short essays, Shemaiah Gonzalez recommends a fresh view on life, through her own experiences and discovery of finding joy in both the mundane and magnificent. In energetic prose, Gonzelez finds delight in naps, capybaras, and wandering the English countryside – and encourages readers to see the joy present in these moments as well. When we turn our attention to the joy around us, we become attuned to God’s constant presence with us and in all these things.
This is not toxic positivity. Gonzalez is no stranger to the darkness present in the world. Rather, knowing both darkness and light helps us acknowledge the disparity between the two. In Undaunted Joy, Gonzalez dares to stare darkness in the eye and respond in joy as an act of defiance.
Over the course of 37 essays, Gonzalez entices the reader to join her in this endeavor.

Sister Sinner : The Miraculous Life And Mysterious Disappearance Of Aimee S
$32.00On a spring day in 1926, Aimee Semple McPherson wandered into the Pacific Ocean and vanished. Weeks later she reappeared in the desert, claiming to have been kidnapped. A national media frenzy and months of investigation ensued. Who was this woman?
America’s most famous evangelist, McPherson was a sophisticated marketer who used spectacle, storytelling, and the newest technology–including her own radio station–to bring God’s message to the masses. Her innovations brought Pentecostalism into the mainstream, paved the way for televangelists, and shaped the future of American Christianity. Her Angelus Temple in Echo Park, Los Angeles, can be called the first megachurch. Her Foursquare Church continues, with more than eight million faithful around the world.
But after her disappearance, as crowds gathered at the water’s edge, people asked: Was McPherson everybody’s saintly sister, or a con-artist sinner? The story of what happened next–sex scandals, religious persecution, legal shenanigans, the seemingly unshakable faith of thousands of followers, and the race to cover it all–runs through the center of Claire Hoffman’s thrilling Sister, Sinner.
A riveting journey into the rise of popular religion in America and life in early Hollywood, and told with the flavor of the period’s noir mysteries, this is an unforgettable story of an iconic woman, largely overlooked, who changed the world.

Ordinary Time : Lessons Learned While Staying Put
$26.99In her first book, the popular From the Front Porch podcast host and independent bookstore owner challenges the idea that loud lives are the ones that matter most, reminding us that we don’t have to leave the lives we have in order to have the lives of which we’ve always dreamed.
Can life be an adventure, even when it’s just . . . ordinary?
Annie Jones always assumed adulthood would mean adventure: a high-powered career; life in a big, bustling city; and travels to far-flung places she’d longed to see. But her reality turned out differently. As the years passed, Annie was still in the same small town running an independent bookstore –the kind of life Nora Ephron dreamed.
During that time, she hosted friends’ goodbye parties and mailed parting gifts; wrote recommendation letters and wished former shop staffers well. She stayed in her small town, despite her love of big cities; stayed in her marriage to the guy she met when she was 18; and she stayed at her bookstore while the world outside shifted steadily toward digital retailers. And she stayed loyal to a faith she sometimes didn’t recognize.
After ten years, Annie realized she might never leave. But instead of regret, she had an epiphany. She awakened to the gifts of a quiet life spent staying put.
In Ordinary Time, Annie challenges the idea that loud lives matter most. Rummaging through her small-town existence, she finds hidden gifts of humor and hope from a life lived quietly. Staying, can itself be a radical act. It takes courage to stay in the places we’ve always called home, Jones argues, as she paints a portrait of possibility far away from thriving metropolises and Monica Gellar-inspired apartments.
We’ve long been encouraged to follow our dreams, to pack up and move to new places and leave old lives–and past selves–behind. While there is beauty in these kinds of adventures, Ordinary Time helps us see ourselves right where we are: in the middle of messy, mundane lives, maybe not too far from where we grew up. We don’t have to leave to find what we yearn–we can choose to stay, celebrating and honoring our ordinary lives, which might turn out to be bigger and better than we ever imagined.

365 Devotions For Women
$19.99Strengthen your bond with God, one devotion at a time.
As women, we have many roles and responsibilities. We are daughters, sisters, wives, mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers, caregivers, working women, leaders, teachers, pastors, and pastors’ wives, neighbors, friends-and the list goes on. Yet in all of these roles, we bring a special gift that God has given us: the gift of nurturing-helping others feel loved, appreciated, and capable of achieving all they are meant to be.
We, too, however, need nurturing. Often, we forget or ignore this fact, finding ourselves overextended and drained after giving all we have without taking time for our own needs. Our lives tend to be busy, hectic, and sometimes even frenzied, leaving little time for ourselves or God. Yet God longs to wrap loving arms around us and give us rest, encouragement, hope, strength, peace, and joy. God is the only One who can fill us and make us whole.
365 Devotions for Women is written to help you focus on your relationship with God. Twelve different Christian women share their reflections on what it means to be a woman of faith, walking with God day by day. As you go through the year (whether you start in January or June), encountering a different writer each month, you will find spiritual refreshment and a sense of camaraderie for the challenge of giving your relationship with God the time and attention it deserves. Though these women have diverse backgrounds, personalities, and ways of relating to God, they have a common theme: God loves you and longs to be in relationship with you.
The contributors are Nell W. Mohney (January), HiRho Park (February), Cynthia Gadsen (March), Kelly Clem (April), Lillian C. Smith (May), Nancy Nikolai Shedden (June), Anne Hagerman Wilcox (July), Marie Schockey (August), Hilda Davis (September), Sallie Dye (October), Monica Johnson (November), and Ellen Gray (December)
Begin today to nurture your relationship with God. It’s the most important nurturing of all!

Your summit awaits-so grab Dr. Weiss’ hand and get ready to climb!

Gospel Driven Church
$24.99Many evangelical churches face the problem of the open “back door”–even as new people arrive, older members are leaving, looking for something else. Combined with this problem is the discipleship deficit, the difficult truth that most evangelicals are not reaching the unchurched at the rates they think they are. In fact, many of the metrics that we often “count” in the church to highlight success really don’t tell us the full story of a church’s spiritual state. Things like attendance, decisions, dollars, and experiences can tell us something about a church, but not everything.
To cultivate a spiritually healthy church we need a shift in our metrics–a “grace-shift” that prioritizes the work of God in the lives of people over numbers and dollars. Are people growing in their esteem for Jesus? Is there a dogged devotion to the Bible as the ultimate authority for life? Is there a growing interest in theology and doctrine? A discernible spirit of repentance? And perhaps most importantly, is there evident love for God and for our neighbors in the congregation?
Leading a church culture to shift from numerical success to the metrics of grace can be costly, but leaders who have conviction, courage, and commitment can lead while avoiding some of the landmines that often destroy churches. Wilson includes diagnostic questions that will help leaders measure–and lead team transparency in measuring as a group–the relative spiritual health of their church, as well as a practical prescriptive plan for implementing this metric-measuring strategy without becoming legalistic.
Most attractional church models can lean heavily on making changes to the weekend worship gatherings. And while some of these changes can be good, thriving grace-focused churches are driven by a commitment to the gospel, allowing the gospel to inform and shape the worship service and the various ministries of the church.

Not with bonnets and buggies, certainly, or the denominational conferences and non-conference conferences. Not with Yoders in my family tree. Once upon a time in the sixteenth century . . .
Raised to believe in peace, woodstoves, and homemade bread, Kirsten Eve Beachy embarks on married life with a Mennonite boy from a dairy farm in this memoir of collected essays. As they dabble in homesteading, care for aging relatives, discover more about their family and denominational history, and overcome infertility, she learns to trust her voice as writer and mother of twins, one with Down syndrome.
With authenticity and wit, Beachy wonders what a martyr heritage means for herself and her children, celebrates the complexities of simple living, and seeks balance as artist and caregiver. Along the way, there are apocryphal Mennonite cookbook recipes, corn day, a farm auction, butchering up close and personal, a doctrine of backyard chickens, surprising genealogical discoveries, an alphabet of infertility, tragedy in the beehive, midnight chantings of a breast pump, dancing through a pandemic, and fresh takes on Amish and Mennonite histories of the Hochstetler massacre, the White Stutzman, and the Civil War.

Fortunate Harbor
$28.00For readers of Nicholas Sparks and Karen Kingsbury, the first in a dazzling new series of romantic, feel-good standalone stories with a dash of adventure set against the dramatic landscape of North Carolina’s Outer Banks – the perfect place for second chances, bittersweet love, and a thrilling quest – from internationally bestselling author Davis Bunn.
It’s a promise of better things to come . . .
With its colorful history, and miles of sand, tide, and windswept oaks, North Carolina’s Outer Banks is a paradise for locals and tourists alike. For Curtis Gage, returning after nineteen years to be the new assistant manager of a 5-star, ocean-front resort, it’s a chance to start a new life–and come to terms with an old one. This is where his father, a revered police chief, died in the line of duty. Whisked away by his mother when he was just a child, Curtis always yearned to come back and reclaim this magnificent necklace of islands as home.
But he never imagined the risks . . .
This coastal haven is in attorney Rae Alden’s blood, and the resort’s expansion is encroaching on precious Fortunate Harbor. For Rae and the old-town families she represents, their generations-old heritage is not for sale for all the money in the world. Who’d have guessed that the ordeal would tie Rae to Curtis, a childhood sweetheart whose family tragedy once converged, fatefully, with her own past? The landgrab is reuniting them in more ways than one. Because the property is more valuable than even Rae believed. The proof is in a secret deed and a long-lost map to a bona fide buried treasure.
If pirate legends, rekindled romance, and real-life adventure aren’t enough to make the heart pound, Curtis and Rae discover they aren’t the only ones hunting. In love and in danger, they have each other, and are finding a place to call home. That alone is a fortune worth fighting for.

Curious Art : Freedom From Manipulation And Control
$19.99Since Eden, we have all fallen into-or fallen prey to-the abuse of power. It is not only the world but often, more subtly, the Church itself that encourages us to model ourselves after exploitative opportunists like King Saul. We are all too often dismissive of broken, humble shepherds like David.
In reality, both kings experienced the bondage of periergos, a biblical term describing the sorcery-literally, the curious art-of manipulation. Only one king broke free, through embracing vulnerability, surrender, and sacrificial love. David knew this as the heart of God. Saul despised it as the weakness of the flesh. Jesus preached it as enemy-love. We Christ-followers are called to cherish such values as the way of the cross, yet all too often the practice of manipulation has instead become normative in our churches.
In journeying with these two biblical kings-and the many brave, vulnerable men and women whose stories are contained in this book-we will learn how to resist and find healing from the abuse of authority. And as we ourselves identify and put aside the tools of the trade that support this idolatrous craft, we will go on to become men and women after God’s own heart, leaders who can change the world.

Wesleyan VileTality : Reclaiming The Heart Of Methodist Identity
$17.99Learn what it means to “submit to be more vile” for today’s Methodists.
Wesleyan Vile-tality calls us back to the roots of our identity. Centered on the moment John Wesley “submitted to be more vile” in spreading the love of God to all people, Ashley Boggan argues that Wesleyan vile-tality is at the core of who we are as Methodists. As rule-benders, rabble-rousers, and outcast-embracers, those early Methodists stood out and stood up. She traces how that original identity was lost as the predecessor denominations to The United Methodist Church grew and began to embrace respectability over “vile-tality.” In an accessible and engaging account of a fascinating history, these stories of our past call us to understand who we were, question who we are, and reclaim who we should be.
Each chapter includes questions for personal reflection or group study.

Biblical Theology In The Life Of The Early Church
$24.99Biblical Theology in the Life of the Early Church recasts biblical theology as a practice cultivated in Christian community rather than a solely academic pursuit. Stephen Presley argues that the early church fathers crafted an ecclesial biblical theology that was lived out communally and oriented believers toward beholding God’s glory.
This volume brings patristic biblical interpretation into conversation with contemporary biblical theology, exploring how assumptions and methods of figures such as Irenaeus and Augustine can guide modern hermeneutics. Presley shows how early Christian theologians emphasized virtue and discipleship alongside exegesis, patiently shaping readers to inhabit Scripture’s narrative. He illuminates the catechetical and liturgical scaffolding that informed patristic biblical theology, centered on Christ as the cornerstone.
Students and scholars of theology, church history, hermeneutics, and patristics will find valuable new insights.

Through the pain of deep loss, he remembers God’s voice calling out to him, even in the deafening silence.
What emerges is not just an account of a long and faithful life of Christian service, but a picture of the Christian life-the life of listening. What will it sound like, Ford asks, when God speaks to you?

She Delights Bible Study
$14.99Let God’s delight in us inspire, guide, and transform our delight in Him!
Sometimes it’s easy to forget that God delights in being present with us in every moment of our lives. In the good and the bad, God reigns and remains. But, if we are not consistently immersing ourselves in the truths of His Word and actively practicing the disciplines of delight that we find within its pages, we will easily find ourselves delighting in the things that don’t truly satisfy or sustain.
In this five-session Bible study companion to the book She Delights, Elle Cardel, founder of the popular Daughter of Delight ministry, teaches readers to see what it means to delight in God’s ways over our own. She invites readers to join her as she wrestles with hard questions such as:
*What does it mean to delight in God and to have Him delight in me? Am I even worthy of God’s delight?
*How can I cling to what is good when life feels so hard?
*How do I faithfully pursue a relationship with Jesus when there is so much competing for my time?
The She Delights Bible Study is not a call to perfection. It is a grace-filled invitation to participate in the things that are holy and right and good that God will use to fashion us into the likeness of Christ. Join Elle as she shows you how to grow in your delight of God and live as a fully free, fully loved daughter of delight.

Star For Jesus And Other Jobs I Quit
$18.99A funny, thought-provoking memoir-in-essays about learning to understand-again and again-that we can’t earn God’s love no matter how many rules we follow or boxes we check, and learning to accept the grace that is freely given.
Growing up, Kimberly Stuart got really good at strapping on her spiritual tap shoes and trying to be a star for Jesus. She could sing all the songs, ace the sword drills, and know all the right theology. From earning creepy Jesus paperweights in her church’s faux Girl Scout program to trying to calm an actual storm on the Mediterranean, she was doing her best; and still found herself longing for something more. She didn’t mean to completely ignore the most beautiful tenets of her faith-the unwavering grace and tenacious love of God-but she did. Which, of course, was the problem. Her best was lackluster, and God wasn’t looking for a star performer anyway.
Star for Jesus (And Other Jobs I Quit), is an invitation for readers to spot unvarnished, amazing grace when they see it. With her trademark wit and transparency, Stuart brings readers through both big and small moments that teach us to cling to the fierce love of God instead of the flimsier versions we find elsewhere.
With unflinching honesty and relatable humor, Stuart encourages readers to take another look at unrelenting grace; why, contrary to the cultural narrative, we are not actually enough, and that’s good news; how we always, remarkably, have all the grace we need; and why this moment in history is the perfect time to extend no-strings-attached grace to an emotionally bedraggled, wary world.

Change Of Habit
$30.00The soulful, hilarious memoir of a chronic people pleaser who surprised everyone in her life by abandoning an unfulfilling career and marriage to join a convent–and learned how much we stand to gain when we fully embrace our authentic selves.
In her twenties and thirties, Monica Clare was a talented but exhausted photo editor who spent her days getting yelled at by clients who were often strung out on cocaine and megalomania. For years, the voice calling her to a simpler, quieter life had been getting louder. As a little kid, she’d seen Audrey Hepburn in The Nun’s Story and thought: That’s me. That’s how she found herself straightening her habit nervously as she walked into a convent, preparing to live alongside eleven other sisters who’d taken the same vow of poverty and celibacy . . . indefinitely. Could a chronically fidgety, pop culture-obsessed woman of the world ever fit in? she wondered. And why did the other nuns seem so cold and disapproving?
As the months went on, she realized the other nuns were shy, not unfriendly–much like herself. The culture at the convent discouraged giving compliments or even saying “please” or “thank you,” since acts of generosity were to be freely given and received. But when Monica rose to the role of Sister Superior, she got the policy against compliments changed. Relationships started to blossom, first awkwardly and then more easily. Who would have predicted that Sister Christina, the one she thought had deeply disliked her from the start, would turn out to be a huge hugger? Or that they’d spend entire afternoons trying to keep a wild turkey from running amok in their community garden?
Equal parts tell-all and rallying cry, A Change of Habit reveals how much we can say yes to when we stop laboring to prove our worth to ourselves and others. In her role as a spiritual counselor, Sister Monica guides people from all walks of life toward resisting the false promises of capitalism, finding healing in small acts of nurture and connection, and ultimately, restoring themselves to a place of wholeness, all while living in this gorgeously messy world of ours.

Show Dont Tell
$28.00From the #1 New York Times bestselling writer and author of How to Love an American Man comes a memoir that inspires us to remember the special teachers in our lives and reflect on the change we create when we share our stories.
Mrs. Korthaus has always been ahead of her time–an educator who inspired her students to dream bigger, think deeper, and live boldly. For decades, she led an English classroom with caring and conviction, but it’s not until she’s retired, and then fighting cancer, that she begins to share her story: long ago marching with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., building a corporate career, and overcoming heartbreak before “accidentally” becoming a teacher and forever shaping the lives of countless young adults–including bestselling author Kristine Gasbarre.
In Show, Don’t Tell, Kristine reflects on her thirty-year friendship with this extraordinary teacher who shaped her life so significantly. She shares the profound lessons Mrs. Korthaus taught her and other students on self-discovery, resilience, strength, and showing up fully for life. It shines a spotlight on the power of sharing our lives and our stories with each other as it moves between tragedy, awe, and the heartwarming relationship forged over decades between two women from different generations. Above all, it delivers a moving reminder about the elders who’ve believed in us–and a call to thank them for the lives they influenced us to lead.

Biblical Theology In The Life Of The Early Church
$83.31Biblical Theology in the Life of the Early Church recasts biblical theology as a practice cultivated in Christian community rather than a solely academic pursuit. Stephen Presley argues that the early church fathers crafted an ecclesial biblical theology that was lived out communally and oriented believers toward beholding God’s glory.
This volume brings patristic biblical interpretation into conversation with contemporary biblical theology, exploring how assumptions and methods of figures such as Irenaeus and Augustine can guide modern hermeneutics. Presley shows how early Christian theologians emphasized virtue and discipleship alongside exegesis, patiently shaping readers to inhabit Scripture’s narrative. He illuminates the catechetical and liturgical scaffolding that informed patristic biblical theology, centered on Christ as the cornerstone.
Students and scholars of theology, church history, hermeneutics, and patristics will find valuable new insights.

Creation Power And Truth
$19.99In Creation, Power and Truth, N. T. Wright invites readers to consider the crucial ways in which the Christian gospel challenges and subverts the intellectual, moral and political values that pervade contemporary culture. In doing so, he asks searching questions about three defining characteristics of our time: neo-gnosticism, neo-imperialism and postmodernity. Employing a robust Trinitarian framework, Wright looks afresh at key elements of the biblical story while drawing out new and unexpected connections between ancient and modern worldviews. The result is a vigorous critique of common cultural assumptions and controlling narratives, past and present, and a compelling read for all who want to hear, speak and live the gospel of Christ in a world of cultural confusion.

God In Public
$22.99Drawing on a collection of lectures that N. T. Wright delivered from 1999 to 2015, God in Public brings together the message of Jesus–in its larger biblical context–and the challenges of the contemporary public and political worlds.
In this book, Wright challenges the West’s response to 9/11 and then expands to discuss a more Jesus inspired way of approaching the public problems we find ourselves in, based on the following Jesus’ life and teachings.
Questions such as: What has Christianity to do with power? Why must the church remind those in authority of their responsibilities? And What can Christians do to act as the voice of the voiceless? Are central in this book as Wright demonstrates the many ways in which faithful exegesis of scripture can throw fresh light–God’s light–on the great philosophical and ethical problems of our day.

Spiritual And Religious
$22.99“I’m spiritual but not religious.” It’s a phrase that’s often used to explain why, although they don’t go to church, people still feel that life must have some kind of transcendent meaning.
But what does this “spirituality” consist of? In Spiritual and Religious N. T. Wright argues that, whether people realize it or not, they are often simply reverting to forms of ancient paganism that are very similar to those that confronted the earliest Christians.
With his characteristic verve and incisiveness, Wright traces the parallels between the worldviews of the first and twenty-first centuries, and shows how a better understanding of God as Trinity can breathe fresh life into our understanding and preaching of the gospel today.
He concludes this prophetic book with a call to contemporary Christians to make a clear choice:
“Are we to compromise with paganism, to assimilate, to water down the distinctives of Christian faith in order to make it more palatable? Are we to retreat into dualism, into a private ‘spiritual’ religion which will assure us of an other-worldly salvation but which will leave the powers of the present world unchallenged. . . ? Or are we to worship the God who is Father, Son and Spirit, and to find in that worship a renewed courage, a renewed sense of direction, and a renewed hope for the future?”

Contemplative Witnessing : BIPOC-Centered Spiritual Direction
$22.00Spiritual direction is a communal spiritual practice that helps open our souls to other human beings. Yet, BIPOC people in the US are surrounded by persistent messages and encounters with social systems that daily deny our souls’ dignity and worth. In the face of such challenges, Cindy S. Lee calls for spiritual directors to serve as contemplative witnesses to injustice and to facilitate restoration when BIPOC people’s sacredness is dismissed. In Contemplative Witnessing, Lee explores how BIPOC people can experience a liberating spirituality so we can settle into our own bodies, experience the traditions and spirituality of our cultures, and engage with communities that reflect our sacredness back to us. Contemplative Witnessing serves as a guide for spiritual directors to facilitate such encounters. This book equips spiritual directors, who often lack BIPOC-centered tools and training, to journey with and within, and to serve as witnesses as BIPOC people encounter our most sacred and honest selves. BIPOC spiritual directors and other directors who serve BIPOC directees will find this book a resource they have long desired.
