What happens when a woman says yes to a divine call and follows it across continents? In To the Regions Beyond, Christian missionary memoirist Lela F. Folkers shares a profound journey of faith that began with a choice: whether to live for herself or to commit fully to God’s service. After graduating with a degree in education from Fresno State, Lela heard a spiritual calling that would carry her far beyond her small hometown in California. She said yes.

Pastor Donna Schaper takes the long view of religious institutions in an age of rapid change. The question of who the Church is today—and how it employs its buildings—is connected to the Church’s past identities and future hopes. Remove the Pews offers concrete suggestions on how congregations can open their church spaces to revive their spirits. From welcoming local dance troupes to serving undocumented persons, Schaper demonstrates how the imagination is the only limit to what church buildings mean and can do.
