Entrusted To Lead
$18.99A practical tool for women who are called to leadership roles in any area of life, Entrusted to Lead offers biblical insight and real-life encouragement for how to navigate their leadership journey.
In Entrusted to Lead, Pastor Donna Pisani draws on over four decades of experience to offer a biblical perspective of women in leadership that considers their role an entrusted assignment rather than just an entitled position. Women who wrestle with God’s call to lead, or who don’t have anyone supporting their call, will discover how to:
*Embrace their God-given, unique leadership gifts
*Become alert to the internal lies that make them hesitant to pursue their calling
*Answer Jesus’ mandate to women to “go tell”-even when no one seems to be listening
*Understand how Paul empowered both genders to lead and serve together
*Lean into Jesus’ strength when facing leadership challengesGenerations of confusion keep women from answering God’s call to lead, depriving God’s kingdom of crucial gifts and abilities. Entrusted to Lead shows women what it looks like to lead with confidence in the workplace and in ministry-and why Jesus always wanted women to have a seat at the table.

Give Them Grace
$18.99What is our purpose in parenting? Is it to keep our kids alive and healthy? To raise responsible adults who will be kind people, loving friends, and good citizens? Or maybe we’d just be happy if our kids would clean up their rooms and stop antagonizing each other. While all of these are honorable goals, when we focus entirely on fixing our kids’ behavior we can miss the most important role a parent has: to show them the love and grace of Christ.
Give Them Grace gives you the gospel foundation to parent from a place of joy, freedom, and peace. This newly revised edition reflects what Elyse and Jessica have learned in their own parenting journeys in the last decade and includes two new chapters on parenting with grace in regard to your children’s mental health and gender.
This isn’t a “how-to” manual; it’s a call to remember, speak, and rest in the gospel as you model Jesus to your children. Because this is the good news of parenting: it’s not about getting things right all the time–it’s about grace.

Living Out Loud
$17.99If you cringe at the thought of pulling out a napkin and drawing a chasm that only the cross can span, you’re in good company.
While most of us have the desire to share the gospel, we don’t know how to bring it up. Let’s face it… it’s not easy to go from “How is the weather” to “Jesus died for you,” and no one is walking up to us on the street asking, “What must I do to be saved?” So what’s a well-intentioned Christian to do?
Enter Living Out Loud.
Living out loud is not a strategy for sharing the gospel, but a way of living that begets the gospel. It’s about developing an active, natural posture of loving God and talking about Him as we go about our daily lives and rhythms in ways that are obvious to those around us.
It’s about making God such an integral part of our daily lives that we can’t help but talk about Him–at home, at work, with family and with friends–not as a sales pitch, but as a natural part of our regular conversations.
Living out loud isn’t about “sharing” the gospel; it’s about “living” it. When who we are as new creatures becomes obvious to those around us in the way we speak and live, and love, evangelism stops becoming a duty, and simply becomes inevitable.
In Living Out Loud, you’ll discover:
*How to bring a refreshing countercultural presence in one relationship and one conversation at a time
*How to demonstrate our beliefs to unbelievers in our daily lives and habits
*How to spiritually engage others in a way that feels natural
It’s time for a new approach to evangelism. Let Living Out Loud show you the way to communicate and truly embody the message of the gospel.

Beyond The Darkness Devotional
$17.99As you walk with sorrow and suffering, Jesus walks beside you, too.
Walking through grief after the loss of a loved one can feel like the most isolating and distressing experience you’ve ever endured. It’s normal to long for a life beyond your sadness. Some days, resurrection feels a hopeful breath away. Other days, our grief reveals to us the gulf that stands between where we are and where we long to be.
In this beautiful devotional, join bestselling author Clarissa Moll on a 40-day journey through grief-and discover the loving presence of Christ that never leaves your side. The prophet Isaiah described Jesus as “a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief.” And while this devotional cannot fix your deepest grief, these pages will reorient, strengthen, and sustain you as you traverse this new terrain of loss. Each day, Clarissa brings hard-won wisdom and tender care, incorporating:
*Powerful and honest reflections about pain, death, loss, and the resilient hope and healing within Scripture
*Written prayers for when you don’t have the words for your sorrow
*Compassionate and practical activities to guide you forward on your grieving journey.
Wherever your grief journey takes you, dear friend, you will find God there. May the words in these devotions remind you of his loving presence and give you the comfort and courage to live fully again.

Healing Whats Within
$18.99We can’t always control what happens to us. But we can discover how to heal the hidden hurt it leaves behind.
If you’re like many of us, you carry a weight of buried pain. Despite looking put together on the outside, you feel secretly fractured within. While you appear strong and resilient on the outside, inside a storm brews of all the ways you’ve been hurt or harmed. There’s a constant churn of unprocessed feelings of shame, anger, grief, or loneliness. And your body tells the story of its struggles in a myriad of aches and ailments. Little by little, you find yourself becoming disconnected from who you truly are. Not knowing what to do with your suffering and fearing you’ll be hurt again, you’ve learned to cope, to numb and suppress the ache within.
It doesn’t have to be this way. In Healing What’s Within, therapist and professor Chuck DeGroat invites you on a compassionate journey inward to return and retune to the life God created you to live. Along the way, you will discover how to:
*Gently consider and confront what’s keeping you stuck and blocking the path to joy and flourishing
*Better understand the relationship between your body and your emotions
*Experience God as a compassionate witness to your trauma-and his unconditional kindness to wherever you find yourself
*Discover real rest and renewal as you reconnect with God, others, and yourself.
It’s never too late to start healing. God’s heart is always ready to help you find your way Home.

Even After Everything
$26.00Exquisitely told and urgently resonant, Even After Everything is a love letter to anyone who has opened their heart only to be hurt. Stephanie Duncan Smith proposes that it’s not through grit or forced resilience that you will find a way forward, but through receiving the full spectrum of our lives, just as we receive the empathy of God-with-us in every moment.
Duncan Smith’s disorientation began when she lost her first pregnancy on the winter solstice, just as the world readied to celebrate its most historic birth on Christmas. Then a new yet uncertain pregnancy unfolded parallel to the pandemic, until nearly one year to the day of her loss, she gave birth to her daughter at the peak of mortality in their city. These contradictions compelled Duncan Smith into a desperate search for steadiness, which she found in the liturgical year as a grounding force and the promise that we are seen by God in every season.
In Even After Everything, Duncan Smith traverses the church’s circle of time and reorients herself and us in the sacred story told through Advent, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week, and Ordinary Time. She reveals the sacred year–through its endless interplay of love, loss, risk, and resurrection–as a mirror to the human experience, an anchor for turbulent times, and a womb strong enough to encompass every human care. At its heart lives the promise of God-with-us, inviting us into the spiritual practice of taking courage in the trust that we are accompanied in everything, and love will always have the last word.

Confidence Is An Inside Job
$24.00Discover a deep, one-of-a-kind confidence that’s rooted in your relationship with Jesus through inspirational stories, insights, and strategies from podcaster and confidence coach Ashley Henriott.
“Conquer self-doubt and embrace God’s view of YOU.”-Rebecca George, author of Do the Thing and host of the podcast Radical Radiance
Has a voice in your head ever told you that you’re not enough? Maybe it’s said the opposite: that you’re too much. Or perhaps you’ve heard both messages at different times in your life. Either way, in those moments you probably felt like something was wrong with you.
And why wouldn’t you? Media and cultural messages constantly tell women that we must be different than we are to be considered valuable or even acceptable: more of this and less of that. But here’s great news: All of that is a lie, and you are not alone in your struggles.
Confidence coach Ashley Henriott knows what it’s like to be identified by the opinions of others and to live a life dictated by what they thought of her. However, her determination to break free from those shackles led her to a profound realization: True confidence is an inside job that begins with a woman embracing her own uniqueness and worthiness.
Through inspirational stories and her trademark humor, Ashley Henriott teaches about three confidence killers-fear, inaction, and comparison-that keep women from stepping into their true potential. Better still, she presents simple and practical strategies you can use to defeat these negative forces, embrace the beauty of who you are today, and live the fulfilling and confident life you desire.

Celebrate Every Day
$15.99Life is hard, and it can be easy to lose sight of what matters the most. We celebrate big wins and milestones, but what about the miracle of ordinary everyday life?

Cup Overflowing : Wine’s Place In Faith, Feasting, And Fellowship
$22.99Have you ever wondered what Jesus would drink? Was his family perhaps involved in growing vines and making wine? What would their family celebrations have been like? And what might this tell us about God and how he wants us to live today? Food and wine have become such hot topics in our culture, and yet there is so much confusion and ambivalence around it as well. We are so far removed from the world of the Bible and the agrarian life that it represents. It is hard to envision the farms and fruit orchards, the village wells and sheep herds, the olive groves and vineyards that Jesus would have walked by every day.
Wine is the most talked-about food in the Bible, and yet so much of the evangelical world has neglected this important biblical theme and fragrant gift of God. Drawing on her upbringing in a long-standing family tradition of winemakers and her degrees in biblical studies and spiritual theology, Gisela Kreglinger introduces readers in a light-hearted way to the theme of wine in the Bible, throughout the history of the church, and in the church’s feasting and fellowship today. She also addresses how many Christians are fearful or concerned about wine because of the challenges of alcohol abuse, how to nurture a culture of healing from such disorders, and how we are called to celebrate God’s gift of wine to grow into a fuller understanding of the gospel as we await the return of the Bridegroom, Jesus Christ. In this book, Gisela shows Christians that wine is a gift from God that we are to receive with gratitude and enjoy in wholesome, communal, and redemptive ways.

Love was thinking about you, imagining ways to showcase His love for you, and planning to rescue you. This was not one of those sentimental loves, but a love that would traverse the wilderness in search of and for His beloved . . . and give everything–His life, blood, wounds, hope, and an invitation to be family.
Join Quina in entering the greatest love story ever told. Through the prose and poetry of these meditations, you will come to know the great love of God for the world and for you. When you reach the end of this book, you will want to begin all over again. And you will want to share this great love story with your friends and family.
Before you danced in your mother’s womb, before Adam and Eve, your greatest-grandparents ever walked the earth, before stars lit up the night sky, there was God–handpicking you to inherit a bottomless ocean: His love. –Quina Aragon

La confianza es el oxigeno de todas las relaciones humanas. Pero tambien es lo que te hace tropezar despues de haberte quemado. Puede que un amigo te decepcione constantemente. Un lider o una organizacion que respetas resulta ser diferente de lo que aparenta. Tu conyuge te engaa. Un familiar te traiciona. Estas agotado por las decisiones de los demas y empiezas a cuestionarte tu propio discernimiento. Y te preguntas: “Si Dios permite que esto ocurra, se puede confiar en El?”.
Como puedes vivir bien y avanzar hacia el futuro cuando sigues tropezando con problemas de confianza? Lysa TerKeurst dice que no se trata simplemente de encontrar personas mejores con quienes caminar. Se trata de desarrollar la estabilidad que anhelas dentro de ti y con Dios, para que no te vuelvas cinico y lleves un sistema de creencias equivocado a cada nueva relacion. En Quiero confiar en ti, pero no puedo, Lysa te muestra como:
*identificar cuales de las once banderas rojas relacionales estan despertando tu desconfianza, para que puedas determinar con exactitud por que te sientes incomodo;
*dejar de tener mas fe en que tus miedos se hagan realidad que en que Dios te ayude, haciendote preguntas cruciales del tipo “que pasaria si…” para procesar mejor tus dudas;
*reconocer cuando puede repararse una relacion fracturada considerando una lista razonable de caracteristicas necesarias para reconstruir la confianza; y
*comprender el impacto fisico, emocional y neurologico de las traiciones que has experimentado y empezar a sanar desde dentro.
En un mundo en el que tantas cosas parecen alarmantes, este libro te dara una paz que no depende de personas, circunstancias o experiencias impredecibles. En su lugar, te ofrece formas practicas y biblicas para progresar realmente hacia perspectivas y relaciones mas sanas, y hacia un futuro que puedas esperar autenticamente.

Bright Shining : How Grace Changes Everything
$27.99Grace is hard to define. It can be found when we create ways to find meaning and dignity in connection with each other, building on our shared humanity, being kinder, bigger, better with each other. If, in its crudest interpretation, karma is getting what you deserve, then grace is the opposite: forgiving the unforgivable, favoring the undeserving, loving the unlovable.
Sadly, we live in an era when grace is increasingly rare. Our growing distrust of the media, politicians, and each other has choked our ability to trust, to accept, to allow for mistakes, to forgive.
What does grace look like in today’s world, and how do we recognize it, nurture it in ourselves and express it, even in the darkest of times? In this luminously beautiful, deeply insightful, and timely book, Baird explores the meaning of grace and how we can cut through negativity to find it today.

We know there are certain things we must have to survive–food, shelter, and safety to name a few. But there are also aspects of life that truly allow us to be joyful and fulfilled. For popular podcaster and bestselling author Annie F. Downs, fun is close to the top of that list. Few would argue that having fun doesn’t enrich our lives, but so much gets in the way of prioritizing it. Tough days, busyness, and feelings that are hard to talk about keep us from the fun that’s out there waiting to be found.

Ever feel like you’re just floating along, not really anchored to anything? Are you searching for purpose and peace in your life? Do you feel like something is missing? It’s time to anchor yourself to something solid, something unchanging–but not to just any old thing. Take hold of something firm and secure.

So where do you turn to find real hope? The only answer is God. In Romans 15:13, the Bible says, “May God, the source of hope, fill you with joy and peace through your faith in him. Then you will overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (GW).
God is the only source of hope that will never disappoint. In fact, the Bible says he is the God of hope. He wants his hope to overflow into your daily life, providing the power to conquer fear, reduce stress, resolve conflict, build healthy relationships, overcome temptation, and face any challenge.

Consider The Lilies
$19.99Find freedom from anxiety as you lift your gaze from the problems and pressures of this world to the changeless and powerful character of your heavenly Father.
Is my cancer back? Is my job secure? Will I ever get married? Are my children safe? Our lives are often a chronicle of trouble, pain, and uncertainty–and God’s children yearn for peace. Many who wrestle with anxiety and despair know that the Bible calls them to “trust God,” but what does that even mean?
In Consider the Lilies, pastor, podcaster, and speaker Jonny Ardavanis shows us God’s consistent response to those who are worn down by worry and badgered by melancholy: He proclaims His own character. Drawing on that perspective-shifting model, Jonny offers biblical insight on how to ground our thoughts and fix our gaze on who God is.
Compassionate, biblical, and timely, Consider the Lilies explores:
*How dwelling on the character of God is the surest pathway to peace
*The root causes of anxiety and worry in the Bible
*What the Bible says about the integration of our physical and spiritual lives
*Why worry grieves God’s heart as our FatherConsider the Lilies is for those who long for liberation from their anxiety and fear–and desire to deeply know the God they are called and enabled to trust. If you are starved for hope and gasping for peace, consider the character of your heavenly Father, who welcomes all who are anxious, fearful, and melancholy to trust in Him.

Family Discipleship That Works
$18.00Family discipleship is one of the most basic ways God has ordained to build his kingdom-and yet most parents struggle to do it consistently.
Amid our busyness, the multitude of different approaches, and our own self-doubts, the deck seems stacked against us. But Brian Dembowczyk isn’t here to pile on the guilt or to make us feel like failures. As a parent himself, he knows this struggle firsthand.
In Family Discipleship That Works, Dembowczyk says that the goal of discipling our kids isn’t just passing along head knowledge. It’s teaching them to act like Jesus. The Bible itself is not just a story but a drama in which we ourselves participate, and our kids have roles to play too. Dembowczyk offers practical advice and a wealth of ideas for teaching our kids to imitate the character traits of Jesus himself as we “act out” the Christian life together.
As parents, we are indeed called to disciple our children to know and act like Jesus. By God’s grace, that’s a task we can do-not out of guilt but with joy and good hope.
Family Discipleship That Works . . .
*Invites parents into more active family discipleship without judgmentalism, but with grace and understanding
*Presents “imitating Jesus” as a new model for understanding and enacting family discipleship
*Includes practical, achievable advice for parents to live out these principles in their homes

Longing For Joy
$18.00Can we still have joy in a world of pain and anxiety?
The troubles around us and in our lives lead many of us into a joyless experience where despair and hopelessness are the norm. Yet something within us still longs for a joy that transcends our challenges and gives us meaning and satisfaction.
Alastair Sterne says that our inner longings for joy actually point us to a God of joy who gives us both the capacity for joy and the realities of joyful experience. Sterne explores pathways to joy and why we often experience the absence of joy. He then offers theologically grounded and research-based practices for becoming people of joyful presence. Even if we are not temperamentally happy enthusiasts, we can gradually cultivate the deep abiding joy that we were created for and that enriches the world around us.

What’s your favorite Christmas movie? Easter movie? Pentecost movie? Casual viewers and movie buffs alike have favorite movies to watch at certain times of the year. But for film critic Abby Olcese, movies with spiritual themes aren’t just limited to the holiday season. They’re part of a deep human need to connect our favorite stories to the natural rhythms of our lives, and to let them shape and give meaning to our experience of the seasons all year long.
The life of the church is also defined by stories, which we revisit through the pattern of the Christian year. In Films for All Seasons, Olcese invites us to reflect on the great themes of the church calendar through the lens of film. From superhero movies and Star Wars to classics and arthouse films, she chooses movies for each liturgical season and leads us through them with skill and infectious enthusiasm, exploring how each one can inform and deepen our appreciation of its corresponding season.
Films for All Seasons is more than just a book about movies-it’s a model for how we engage with art as Christians.
Includes:
*Explorations of popular, classic, and arthouse films and how they relate to liturgical seasons
