Rebecca Davis exposes the Scripture-twisting that presents God as an abuser. With biblical scholarship and trauma-informed compassion, she shows you what Scripture actually teaches about God's restorative heart, healthy boundaries, and holiness.

In the intricate tapestry of modern society, Christian discipleship unfolds as a transformative odyssey that illuminates the path to purpose and meaning. This journey is far from passive; it's a dynamic and intentional exploration of faith, deeply rooted in the teachings of Christ. As believers embark on this expedition, they actively cultivate the virtues of compassion, love, and humility, thereby, weaving these virtues into the very fabric of their lives. No longer confined to abstract beliefs, these principles become living expressions that elevate every facet of their existence.

In our zeal to glorify God and be used by him, we have a tendency to rely on doing things for God. However, when God chose to use certain individuals in the Bible, it wasn’t because of their efforts or abilities. God was looking at their heart. God wants worshipers who work, not workers who worship. There is a vast difference between the two.

The Bible calls Jesus the friend of sinners, but it's hard to imagine what friendship with Jesus really looks like. We so often don't even know how to do friendship with the people around us, despite all the options we have to connect. So how are we supposed to feel that close to a holy, perfect, and invisible God? How do we see Jesus as the real person he is? And how do we experience true friendship with him when we struggle to maintain true friendship on earth? Join author Jared C. Wilson as he explores what it means to be a friend of Jesus.

"The way of the cross is a magnificent obsession with a heavenly pearl, beside which everything else in life has no value." Following Christ, says John White, is not cheap. The cost is substantial. There will be suffering and loss. But the benefits, rewards and joys that come with our commitment to him are well worth the sacrifices that must be made to answer the call to Christ. Consider the cost. Then take up your cross. And follow Jesus in the only life worth living.

Everyone takes little steps toward Jesus before they can take big steps with and for him. This is a process that starts long before people ever enter a church building, especially as the gap between the church and culture grows ever wider. This book will help equip you to handle the early stages of discipling others with care, address the stumbling blocks that hold them back, as well as redefine how you see your own identity as an ambassador of Christ.

The most urgent call upon God?s people is to live as followers of Jesus. The most indicting critique against the church is as simple: its failure to do so. We long to renew our hope for a world broken and hurting. And it is we, God's people living in the power of the Holy Spirit, who are called to become this hope and flourish while in exile. Here is the crisis: we are made and redeemed for this calling, but it slides through our fingers.

While Christians have had a long heritage of rigorous scholarship and careful thinking, some circles still view the intellect with suspicion or even as contradictory to Christian faith. And many non-Christians are quick to label Christians as anti-intellectual and obscurantist. But this need not be so. In this classic introduction to Christian thinking, John Stott makes a forceful appeal for Christian discipleship that engages the mind as well as the heart.

Crises around race have put the church in a defensive posture, always reacting to racial conflicts in society. But Jesus wants more. He wants Christians to play offense by discipling people into a new humanity, where we push beyond mere diversity and into a biblical vision for ethnic unity.

We must apply Solomon's leadership insights to global missions and outreach. Solomon's fame and influence extended far beyond the borders of Israel. As Christian leaders, we are called to have a global perspective and engage in cross-cultural missions with wisdom and sensitivity. By studying Solomon's approach to international relations, we can learn valuable lessons in fostering unity, building alliances, and promoting peace and justice.

When I met with my mentee for the first time and asked what her expectations were for our relationship, she emphatically responded, “I just want real.” Her words gripped my heart. It was as though she was speaking on behalf of her generation and their craving for authentic, vulnerable, and transparent relationships.

You've tried it all before. You've done the Bible reading plans until you reached the book of Numbers. You have prayer journals that are half full. You hunger for a deep, meaningful spiritual life, but are so weary of your own personal inconsistencies and life interruptions that it almost feels hypocritical to try again. It often feels like spiritual disciplines are for the privileged few theologians who contemplate God's word while sitting in their studies. But God doesn't ask for your performance in exchange for his love.

Many followers of Jesus have plans for family, finances, and career, but very few have a spiritual plan to grow closer to Jesus. We must be intentional in order to hear from God, grow in faith, and form good habits that lead to a meaningful life. Going beyond the surface level, pastor Noah Herrin gives you ten tangible practices that will plunge you into the depths of a real relationship with Jesus. Simple but powerful, these ten small choices will lead to big changes.

Many people will tell you that you need to change, but few can tell you how. If you find yourself struggling with angry outbursts, or if unresolved pain in your life makes it difficult to connect with your family, you are not alone.
