Going through the discipleship process can be tough. Life's challenges, hardships, struggles, and daily distractions can become discouraging. Developing a Disciple: Book 2—a refreshing look at how to stay encouraged and remain engaged in the discipleship process—helps to keep the eyes of the heart focused on Jesus Christ. With personal examples of the author's testimony throughout his life, it is not difficult to see how Jesus redeems and reconciles every heart that would come near to His redemptive work.

​Every Member Matters is a small and accessible book that lays out the important role that every member plays in the mission of the local church.

Gen Z, born into a complex and rapidly changing world, carries unique questions about life and God. Church methodologies that worked for previous generations often miss their mark with this one. Understanding Gen Z's real questions about faith opens the door to meaningful conversations and deeper connections.

Every man is being shaped by some kind of wisdom. However, the key question is – what type of wisdom is guiding us? Scripture doesn’t suggest every form of wisdom produces a better, more flourishing life. In fact, it warns us of the opposite condition – that we ought to be mightily aware of the possibility that we may be digesting and guided by worldly wisdom, which eventually leads to our own downfall, devastation, and death – yet it will feel so satisfying going down.

What does it mean to be holy? Why should we care? And how can we change? The hole in our holiness is that we don't care much about holiness. Or, at the very least, we don't understand it. This is an audiobook for those of us who are ready to take holiness seriously, ready to be more like Jesus, ready to live in light of the grace that produces godliness. This is an audiobook about God's power to help us grow in personal holiness and to enjoy the process of transformation.

The gospel shows us that failure doesn’t have to define us, that failure isn’t final. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus took on all our mistakes and forgave them.

The call to contend for truth in this generation is not about shouting the loudest or longest to win a theological or moral argument. Instead, it's about realizing we live in a confused and hurting world that desperately needs the life-changing message of the Gospel. When we allow the Holy Spirit to help us see and value people the way Jesus does, we will be compelled by compassion to do everything we can to reach this generation with the love of God they so urgently need.

Natalie Williams invites you to cultivate the often-overlooked discipline of mercy that our world today so desperately needs. Diving into the scriptures, we explore why we struggle to grasp God's astonishing mercy and see that when we do, it has the power to transform how we see God, ourselves and those around us. Discover the life-changing discipline of mercy as we learn that when it comes to our lives and what the world desperately needs, it really 'Tis Mercy All'.

The time after Good Friday but before Easter Sunday is one of the most overlooked portions of the Bible. We tend to rush ahead to the empty tomb seeking to find the resurrected Lord, but our lives don't come equipped with a fast-forward button. We all face seasons of waiting where we long for a new or better future.

In Faithful, Creative, Hopeful, Jesse Zink demonstrates the importance of the Christian gospel and its witness to the flourishing of human societies. Zink offers fifteen theses—echoing those of the church reformers—that together offer a vision for a renewed faith and a renewed church in this crisis-shaped world.

Gospel workers are called to be both/and people: both patient and urgent, both confident and humble, both dependent on God and committed to hard work, both theologically driven and practically wise, and more. Often, these requirements feel as though they’re in tension. But this book shows that rather than leaning one way or the other, or seeking to strike a balance, authentic gospel ministry is found in pursuing both/and. To settle for less puts ourselves and our churches in danger.

Muslims around the world are having dreams about Jesus. “The Man in the white robe” has been appearing to many, calling them into his kingdom. At age 23, Kenza Haddock was one person whose powerful dream encounter led her to leave Islam and follow Jesus. Years later, as a seasoned Christian, Haddock has written the resource she desperately searched for as a new believer.

Many Christians think about heaven as a distant place we go after we die. But what if it's a very real kingdom available to us right now, here on earth? In What If Jesus Was Serious About Heaven?, Skye Jethani unpacks what Jesus really said about heaven and how it can transform our faith today.

Written in his signature style – full of paradox, wit and poetic insight – Chesterton outlines an intellectually rigorous defence of the Christian faith. Part autobiography, part theology, Orthodoxy traces Chesterton's personal journey from a crisis of doubt to belief, arguing that Christianity uniquely satisfies the long-established human need for truth, imagination and joy. Rather than religious doctrine being dry or dogmatic in any way, Chesterton relays it as adventurous and romantic – and the only worldview that allows enough room to make sense of the world's wonders and contradictions.

This isn’t another feel-good Christian book—it’s an unfiltered, unapologetic guide to dying to yourself. Blending storytelling, raw liturgy, and counter-cultural faith, Joshua Porter rips through the safe, sanitized versions of Christianity and reclaims the gritty, disruptive truth of the gospel. How to Die weaves together biblical narrative, ancient creeds, and personal story in a way that dares us to reconsider what it means to follow Jesus.

Jesus is well aware of the games people play with spiritual things. He wants none to mistake what it means to be his follower. Many will claim to love him. Many will pretend to love him. Many will talk about loving him. Many will analyze what it means to love him. However, a Christian is distinguished and defined by one, and only one, thing: Obedience. Obedience to the Commands of Jesus is a daily, moment-by-moment choice. We make it over and over. We are continually making it. It is a progressive and ongoing choice that defines what it means to love Jesus and be his follower.

Be firm with your kids, but not scary. Be friendly, yet maintain authority. Work hard, but prioritize time at home. Parents are faced with an overwhelming mix of advice. Self-help books, blog posts, and endless tips often leave parents feeling more stressed, discouraged, and fearful. In Good News for Parents, Adam Griffin offers a refreshing alternative to typical parenting advice. This audiobook reveals how walking by the Spirit can free parents from the anxieties, stress, and self-doubt of parenting.

Many of us experience loneliness and isolation, even in our church communities. Churches often emphasize increasing knowledge rather than encouraging believers to foster deep, authentic connections that reflect the heart of God. We sometimes forget that both are important if we want to experience vibrant spiritual growth. In The Power of Together, Jim Putman invites you to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships within your church community and to move beyond superficial interactions to form genuine bonds.
