There is an epidemic of problems, misfortunes, trials, and tribulations infecting our lives. Everywhere a person goes, sees on television, and experience through social media is another disaster. Sometimes the problems come by way of nature through storms and extreme changes in weather. In other cases, we’re dealing with diseases, infections, and a literal pandemic mutating more often than hours in a day. To many of us, we’re suffering from physical, financial, social, spiritual, and psychological problems that seem to be relentless and exhausting.

Joseph Smith Jr. (1805–1844) was one of the most successful and controversial religious leaders of nineteenth-century America, publishing the Book of Mormon and starting what would become the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He built temples, founded a city-state in Illinois, ran for president, and married more than thirty women. This self-made prophet thrilled his followers with his grand vision of peace and unity, but his increasingly grandiose plans tested and sometimes shattered their faith.

Remember and Rehearse will help listeners understand the whole story of Scripture. Knowing the true, good story of God combats the false stories the world tells. Through the big movements of Scripture: creation, fall, the covenants, Christ, the Spirit and the Church, and the Kingdom without end, listeners will discover the unfolding drama of God's Kingdom coming to earth and how each of us are invited to be participants.

Roasted marshmallows, campfire stories, shaving cream battles--for some of us, Christian summer camp is where we felt most at home, where we could be the most authentic versions of ourselves. But for campers at white Evangelical church camps in particular, camp was also often the place to inherit a toxic image of God and of each other.

Charlie Bird—the viral face of BYU during his years as Cosmo the Cougar—made waves across the nation in February when he came out and revealed to BYU fans that he is gay. Now, in Without the Mask, Bird reflects on how his identity has strengthened his testimony and how he views his sexual orientation in conjunction with his faith in Jesus Christ. Alternating between memoir and teaching chapters, Bird’s touching and authentic prose chronicles his decision to openly share that he is gay and to remain active in the faith.

5 years into leading his church, Ken Schaap found himself at a breaking point. His faith was withering and being replaced with disappointment and cynicism. The God of the Bible seemed uninvolved and distant. Dealing with afflicted kids, an overwhelmed wife, a fledgling church, and an imprisoned father left him discouraged and ready to quit. Then, the Holy Spirit touched his life in an unexpected way. Weaving together miraculous personal experiences with a fresh look at God's Word, Ken makes the case that a naturally supernatural life of following Jesus is possible.

Jesús nos envía al mundo de la misma manera que el Padre lo envió a él. Sin embargo, aun miles de años después, muchos cristianos todavía no se ponen de acuerdo que incluye esto. Algunos creen que el enfoque de la misión cristiana es evangelizar y «salvar almas». Otros enfatizan asuntos de justicia global o la labor de alivio y desarrollo. ¿Acaso solo una de estas dos opiniones está en lo correcto por si sola?

You may have noticed that much of today's ministry comes neatly packaged along with a slick marketing strategy. The offer of health, wealth, and success in all you do is a pleasant detour from the actual message of the Lord Jesus. Perhaps you never really considered that even though salvation is the free gift of God, transformation to spiritual maturity is not a gift at all. It's a process. The cross of Calvary was God's appointment for his son. The Cross in Your Path is the Son's appointment for You. This book is concerned with that second cross, the one you are to take up and carry.

Imagine having a job where your workplace is a centuries-old palace, your outfit is steeped in symbolism, and your words reach an audience of over a billion people every time you speak. That’s just a glimpse into the life of the Pope—one of the most visible, influential, and intriguing figures in the world. But there’s far more to the papacy than grand ceremonies and global headlines. The Pope is not just a religious leader; he’s a symbol, a diplomat, a shepherd, and the head of a global institution that spans every continent.

Work in Progress is a snapshot of several years--from a boy, then a teenager, and finally a young adult--of being thrown into a series of jobs that Father Martin had zero training. He never once set foot in a restaurant kitchen before working as a busboy; never stepped onto a golf course before working as a caddy; and never once seen a factory floor before working as an assembly-line worker. He almost always felt uncomfortable, unsettled, and uneasy. But, we've all done jobs we didn't love because we needed the money.

You stand on a battlefield, surrounded by an enemy that you've been told doesn't exist. This is a classic example of a PSYOP a psychological operation, a mission to change what you believe by feeding you information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or an outright lie. This PSYOP is one of many by entities who've been at war with God since the Garden of Eden.

The history of the Western church is stained by injustice. The impulse to resist justice and look the other way has harmed the church and the people it aims to serve. But a different future is possible. In The Justice of Jesus, Joash Thomas surveys the history of injustice and colonization in the Global South at the hands of the Western church. He shows that in addition to harming colonized peoples, colonization has limited Western Christians' understanding of the gospel, leading us to devalue the pursuit of justice for our neighbors on the margins.

Everyone wants to belong. But what does belonging—to God, ourselves, and each other—look like in the context of living within an empire and its ideologies? In Liturgies for Resisting Empire, Cuban American writer Kat Armas explores this question both for the New Testament church and for us today. Armas gives listeners a sense of hope and belonging in their daily lives—belonging to ourselves, God, each other, and the earth—in ways that resist the lies of empire. Each chapter begins with a brief liturgy.

As sidekicks to their parents' and churches' ambitions, missionary kids (MKs) face questions many white Christians eventually ask: about God's calling, sacrifice, faith, privilege, racism, abuse, and what belonging means. In The Missionary Kids, Holly Berkley Fletcher reveals how MKs have intimate access to the movement's logic, longings, and ideals.

I humbly and gracefully say that this book, in my opinion, is optimistic and providential. It is experiential and offers more to the right souls who listen to the ideas correctly and with the right mindset. The content of this book came out of a flow during moments of deep connection, as if it were meant for a particular group of people. Often the author was surprised by the clarity that flowed into these moments and, at times, sat in shock because the insights were directly opposite to his beliefs and ways of doing things.
