Tending The Wild Garden
$20.00Add to cartIn a world fixated on outward appearances, discover the joy of cultivating an inward relationship with the Spirit, where virtues like love, joy, and self-control blossom naturally.
“The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.” – Galatians 5:22-23a
The apostle Paul paints a beautiful picture when he describes the fruit of the Spirit but all too often, we reduce this list of virtues into a checklist of attributes to pursue and strive for. However, pastor and author Eugenia Gamble contends that this understanding is backwards. The Holy Spirit is the One who grows and develops those attributes within us as we pursue our relationship with God. By tending that relationship, the virtues of God develop and blossom as a fruit grows on a well-tended tree.
Tending the Wild Garden explores the true meaning behind each of the virtues in Paul’s list, guiding us to discover anew what it means to be a deeply loved child of God indwelt by God’s Spirit. Gamble helps us to move beyond the checklist mentality of traditional understandings of the fruit of the Spirit, to cultivate our relationship with God, and to uproot the “weeds” that could threaten the flourishing of the fruit in our lives.
Key Features of this Bible Study:
*Ten Chapters/Sessions introduce the garden and explore each of the nine aspects of the fruit of the Spirit
*Six daily devotions in each chapter with daily Scripture, reflections, and spiritual practices
*Questions for personal and group discussion
Let the fruit of the Spirit be more than just words on a page-they’re the living expressions of God’s love within you. Dare to cultivate a life overflowing with love, joy, peace, and so much more.

Gods Gift Of Generosity
$28.00Add to cartGod’s Gift of Generosity is ideal for pastors who must engage in one of the most uncomfortable tasks of their role: asking people for money.
Why does generosity matter, and why should we give back to God?
Tailored specifically for pastors and lay leaders navigating the delicate task of stewardship, this insightful book transcends the mundane “how” of giving to explore the profound “why” behind our acts of generosity.
In this book Travis skillfully discusses the essence of generosity in three thought-provoking sections. Initially, he invites readers to ponder “what” generosity truly entails, painting a vivid picture of God’s boundless generosity woven throughout the entirety of Scripture. From there, he considers the “so what” question, confronting the challenges of practicing generosity today in a world consumed by materialism and acquisition. Finally, in the enlightening “now what” segment, Travis offers a practical roadmap for church leaders, equipping them with the tools and insights needed to navigate stewardship campaigns with grace and confidence.
With a blend of scholarly insight, heartfelt conviction, and practical advice, God’s Gift of Generosity serves as a beacon of wisdom and encouragement for those seeking to cultivate a spirit of generosity in their congregations, encouraging all to celebrate the timeless nature of God’s generosity and translate its profound truths into tangible, transformative actions in our contemporary world.

Can I Say That
$19.99Add to cartCan God handle our hardest questions, biggest struggles, and secret doubts?
We instinctively assume he cannot. We figure giving voice to those things will bring shame, rejection, and distance from him. But what if our hard questions don’t need to function as an off-ramp from Christianity but can lead us closer to his heart? What if he is not afraid of our doubts but instead reveals himself in them?
In Can I Say That?, Brenna Blain brings her fresh voice to those who feel unsafe or unwelcome in the church, acknowledging the incongruity between the church’s actions and believers’ lived experiences. As a Bible teacher and an advocate for those who have experienced abuse, molestation, and mental health crises, she creates space for readers to be radically honest and ask tough questions–Am I safe here? Why does your presence feel so lonely, God?–while pointing them to biblical, foundational truth.
Leading the way with her own raw vulnerability and authenticity, Brenna shares her journey of wrestling with God and building intimacy with him as a result. Bravely exploring these deep places with Brenna will help you:
*Know in your guts that God accepts you as you are–even as you question, struggle, doubt, and hurt
*Be reassured that he is bigger than anything you face and can handle anything you bring to him
*Experience his love in the most tender and needy parts of your heart
*Engage complex questions about the institution of the church, wrestle with its abuses, and advocate for the Body of Christ to more closely reflect his heart
od sees you and knows you–better than you know yourself. He doesn’t need you to change in order for him to love you. He doesn’t require you to be free of struggles in order for him to be close to you. He wants you to be your true self with him and be willing to engage with him deeply, so he can wow you with the beauty of his heart and character.

Relaxed : Walking With The One Who Is Not Worried About A Thing
$19.99Add to cartWe often try to do a lot for God–without him. Relaxed is a call to let go of spiritual performance, reject our cultural tendency to live under pressure, and find freedom to walk with God and toward God, one gentle step at a time.
Jesus was never in a hurry to be anywhere other than where he was, trusting and obeying his Father. Could the same be said of us? We long to know peace, purpose, and contentment, but life’s stresses, the world’s discouragements, and our own striving for growth get in the way.
In Relaxed, pastor and teacher Megan Fate Marshman explores what it means to set aside our addiction to trying to figure everything out and relish a slower, compelling, powerful, and relaxed life with God. As Megan takes us word by word through Proverbs 3:5-6, she helps us discover:
*The joy of a continual, intimate relationship with God
*What God calls us to do with the burden of shame and guilt
*What it looks like to be relaxed in the midst of grief, financial stress, mistakes, and fatigue
*The freedom and forgiveness of being found “in Christ”
*How to incorporate rhythms of walking with God into our everyday routinesGod never intended for us to be in control. As we lean away from our own understanding and into an intentionally relaxed spiritual life, we join Jesus in trusting a God who knows what he is doing–and isn’t worried about a thing.

When Faith Disappoints
$17.00Add to cartFor anyone who feels the weight of injustice, trauma, and suffering, the founder of the Jude 3 Project invites you to discover how to find hope when you can’t make sense of the pain.
Living as a Black woman in America, Lisa Victoria Fields understands the tension of relying on God in a broken world. While pursuing her calling in full-time Christian ministry–an often white, male-dominated vocation–she saw the contentions many people have with Christianity. She heard the theological questions, but instead of arguing for her faith, she listened to the barriers and heard the pain in their hearts: Why doesn’t God protect me from suffering and injustice? Others don’t seem to think I have value–does God?
Now, in her debut book, Fields shows us how emotional pain–often more than theological concerns–is at the root of our doubt. She invites us to bring our deepest soul questions to this journey as she explores:
– Seven pain points that might be keeping us from faith: a lack of personhood, peace, provision, pleasure, purpose, protection, and power
– Honest talk about how Christianity doesn’t seem to meet our very valid needs
– Why wrestling with God doesn’t negate our faith but instead deepens it
– What it looks like to allow God to bring healing to our pain so we can see Him and others more clearly
Through vulnerable storytelling and thoughtful use of Scripture, Fields tends to our hurting hearts and offers hope and resolve. She helps us move forward as we cling to a faith that brings us back to the truth of Christianity–not despite the pain of this world but in light of it.

You will find thirty-one heart-searching readings that will show you how to live each day in closer communion and fellowship with our Savior.Instead of accepting God’s invitation to enter His throne room, many Christians stand alone outside the door, uncertain and ashamed. Christ beckons them to His banquet table and offers them a room in His house, but they fearfully or foolishly give up the glorious life He has offered. They come to Jesus as Redeemer but never go beyond the doorway to abide in Him and dwell with the King of Kings.
Murray discovered what it means to abide continually in God’s presence and earnestly shares his heartfelt advice with readers. His prayer was that all of God’s children would receive the rich and blessed experience of abiding in Christ. Cross the threshold now and accept God’s invitation to live joyfully with Him.

2 Kinds Of Knowledge
$14.99Add to cartMankind’s great body of knowledge has come to us through the five senses. Sense knowledge can see the handiwork of God and can see the design in creation, but it cannot find the Designer. In fact, it’s often unwilling to admit that there is a Designer because it cannot see, hear, taste, smell, or touch Him.
Sense knowledge says that faith cannot produce miracles. It does not know why we were created, nor can it tell us the source of life, light, motion, gravity, or hundreds of other things.
But revelation knowledge holds all of these answers and more.
In The Two Kinds of Knowledge: God’s Wisdom Is Greater Than Our Senses, E. W. Kenyon explains how we can discover the wisdom of God in His Word.
This new kind of knowledge, which the secular world cannot grasp, brings us to a new kind of life, taking us out of our failures and weaknesses to fill our hungry hearts with love, faith, and grace.

Resting Your Heart In Him
$15.99Add to cartResting Your Heart in Him: Confessions to a Loving God highlights insights and wisdom drawn from The Confessions of Saint Augustine, the spiritual autobiography that has inspired Christians for centuries, as well as excerpts from Augustine’s other works.
Threaded throughout these quotations are tranquil illustrations of foliage and other scenes from nature. Enjoy this book for spiritual encouragement and growth, as a guide in your daily prayers and devotional time, and as an introduction to the writings of one of the greatest leaders in Christian history.Augustine’s meditations about his life in the light of Scripture include not only an admission of his sins but also an acknowledgment of God’s greatness, grace, and truth. We can rest our hearts in God because we know that whatever we are confessing to Him–whether our worries, our sins, our praises, or our trust–we are coming before a loving God. He forgives us completely and welcomes us into His presence. He exchanges our sins for His own righteousness and guides us in His ways.
With Augustine, confess your struggles and doubts before God. Declare your love for Him and your faith in Him. As you do, you will grow closer to the One in whom your heart finds ultimate peace and rest.
“You made us for Yourself, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You.” –Saint Augustine

Disobedient Women : How A Small Group Of Faithful Women Exposed Abuse, Brou
$18.99Add to cartA NATIONAL BESTSELLER!
Uncover the true story of courageous American Christian women who confronted and aimed to reform the patriarchal structures and abusive practices within their churches and religious communities.
A generation of American Christian girls was taught submitting to men is God’s will. They were taught not to question the men in their families or their pastors. They were told to remain sexually pure and trained to feel shame if a man was tempted. Some of these girls were abused and assaulted. Some made to shrink down so small they became a shadow of themselves. To question their leaders was to question God.
All the while, their male leaders built fiefdoms from megachurches and sprawling ministries. They influenced politics and policy. To protect their church’s influence, these men covered up and hid abuse. American Christian patriarchy, as it rose in political power and cultural sway over the past four decades, hurt many faithful believers. Millions of Americans abandoned churches they once loved.
Yet among those who stayed (and a few who still loved the church they fled), a brave group of women spoke up. They built online megaphones, using the democratizing power of technology to create long-overdue change.
In Disobedient Women, journalist Sarah Stankorb gives long-overdue recognition for these everyday women as leaders and as voices for a different sort of faith. Their work has driven journalists to help bring abuse stories to national attention. Stankorb weaves together the efforts of these courageous voices in order to present a full, layered portrait of the treatment of women and the fight for change within the modern American church.
Disobedient Women is not just a look at the women who have used the internet to bring down the religious power structures that were meant to keep them quiet, but also a picture of the large-scale changes that are happening within evangelical culture regarding women’s roles, ultimately underscoring the ways technology has created a place for women to challenge traditional institutions from within.
