The essence of spirituality is loving God, says Powell. In this biblical spirituality for today, Powell's earnest plea is for Christians to revisit their faith not by blazing in religious enthusiasm but by harboring a steadier flame and deeper commitment.

The Gospel At Work

What is true happiness? How can you experience it? And can you live it wholeheartedly in your day-to-day life? Every thoughtful person asks such questions. Thoughtful Christians ask a few more questions such as, Can Christian practices enhance happiness? If so, how? And does Christianity provide happiness in a way that other paths, like psychology, cannot?

Christopher Kaczor suggests answers to these and other questions about how to be happier. In The Gospel of Happiness, the bestselling author of The Seven Big Myths of the Catholic Church highlights seven ways in which positive psychology and Christian practice can lead to personal and spiritual transformation. Focusing on empirical findings in positive psychology that point to the wisdom of many Christian practices and teachings, the author provides not only practical suggestions on how to become happier in everyday life but provides insight on how to deepen Christian practice and increase love of God and neighbor in new and bold ways.

“Part of the Christian message is that authentic happiness is to be found not in selfishness, but self-giving,” writes Dr. Kaczor. “In this book, I highlight the many ways in which positive psychology and Christian practice overlap. All of this points us toward deeper fulfillment in this life, and in the life to come.”

Mike Bickle

Growing in Extravagant Love for God

Have you ever wondered how God feels about you?

If you could get just a glimpse, you would become a new person. No matter who you are or what you have done, He longs for you to know the truth - that His affections for you are very deep, even when you are at your weakest.  Seeing the passion and splendor of God's personality will help bring you to personal wholeness and spiritual maturity.  And it will awaken in you a fervent devotion to God- and a passion for Jesus.

 "Anyone who knows Mike Bickle, knows that he has subordinated everything in his life to this one goal: acquiring passion for Jesus. And therein lies the power of this book." Jack Deere, Th.D., author and lecturer

"I have been stirred by reading Mike Bickle's spiritual odyssey in this book. His passion for Jesus is infectious." Stephen Strang, founder, Charisma magazine

Andrew L. Whitehead

How Christian Nationalism Betrays the Gospel and Threatens the Church

Power. Fear. Violence. These three idols of Christian nationalism are corrupting American Christianity. Andrew Whitehead is a leading scholar on Christian nationalism in America and speaks widely on its effects within Christian communities. In this book, he shares his journey and reveals how Christian nationalism threatens the spiritual lives of American Christians and the church. Whitehead shows how Christians harm their neighbors when they embrace the idols of power, fear, and violence. He uses two key examples--racism and xenophobia--to demonstrate that these idols violate core Christian beliefs. Through stories, he illuminates expressions of Christianity that confront Christian nationalism and offer a faithful path forward. American Idolatry encourages further conversation about what Christian nationalism threatens, how to face it, and why it is vitally important to do so. It will help identify Christian nationalism and build a framework that makes sense of the relationship between faith and the current political and cultural context.

The evangelical adoption movement is but one strand in a long cord of Christian care for orphans. While adoption trends have fluctuated over time in different contexts, the Bible has not changed its position. The gospel is decidedly pro-adoption and on the side of the orphan. Yet many obstacles stand in the way of the Christian’s mission to provide care to the least of these.

Everyday Myths in Light of the Gospel

Uncertain. Confused. Overwhelmed.

Many Christians feel bombarded by the messages they hear and the trends they see in our rapidly changing world.

How can we resist being conformed to the pattern of this world? What will faithfulness to Christ look like in these tumultuous times? How can we be true to the gospel in a world where myths and false visions of the world so often prevail?

In This is Our Time, Trevin Wax provides snapshots of twenty-first-century American Life in order to help Christians understand the times. By analyzing our common beliefs and practices (smartphone habits, entertainment intake, and our views of shopping, sex, marriage, politics, and life's purpose), Trevin helps us see through the myths of society to the hope of the gospel.

As faithful witnesses to Christ, Trevin writes, we must identify the longing behind society's most cherished myths (what is good, true, beautiful), expose the lie at the heart of these myths (what is false and damaging), and show how the gospel tells a better story - one that exposes the lie but satisfies the deeper longing.

An Unforgettable Story of Primitive Jungle Treachery in the 20th Century

In 1962, Don and Carol Richardson risked their lives to share the gospel with the Sawi people of New Guinea. Peace Child told their unforgettable story of living among these headhunting cannibals who valued treachery through  fattening victims with friendship before the slaughter. God gave Don and Carol the key to the Sawi hearts via a redemptive analogy from their own mythology.  The peace child became the secret to unlocking a value system that existed through generations over centuries, possibly millenniums, of time. This new edition of Peace Child will inspire a new generation of readers who need to hear this unforgettable story and the lessons it teaches us about communicating Christ in a meaningful way to those around us.

A Gospel Saturated Perspective on How to Change

You can't. God can.

 

Life never lacks for improvement--in ourselves, in our relationships, in just about everything. But all our brave stabs at getting better, if they ever change anything, are incomplete at best, complete failures at worst. Sometimes much worse.

 

Unless . . .

 

The gospel of Jesus Christ is the great "unless" of life--both for those who already believe (but can't believe the messes they're still capable of making), as well as those who don't yet believe but just know their way isn't working.

 

Recovering Redemption, written with a pastor's bold intensity and a counselor's discerning insight, takes you deeply into Scripture to take you deeply inside yourself, discovering that the heart of all our problems is truly the problem of our hearts. But because of what God has done, and because of what God can do, the most confident, contented person you know could actually be you--redeemed through Jesus Christ.

 

None of us, really, can do what's required to change our lives for the better, taking what's persistently frustrating and making it perfectly satisfying. Yet as hopeless as that may sound, it is the flat-line truth in which good news comes to life . . . to your life. For just as what's lost can be found, what's wrong can--even now--be recovered.

The Catholic Church has put on a new face, and both Catholics and Evangelicals are confused. What is happening in the Catholic Church? Have key doctrinal views or beliefs changed? Drawing directly from the new Catechism of the Catholic Church, McCarthy answers those questions and addresses primary differences between Catholic doctrine and biblical Christianity.

The Hermeneutics of Speaking and Writing in the Synoptic Tradition, Mark, Paul, and Q

Spoken words process knowledge differently from writing. What happens when speech turns into text? In reappraising literary scholars' propensity to trace Jesus' sayings back to the assumed original version, the author argues that in the oral medium each rendition of a saying is the original. Orality works with multiple originals, rather than with single originality. In what may be the most extraordinary thesis of the book, Kelber argues that the written gospel is related less by evolutionary progression than by contradiction to what preceded it.

In Heart and Mind, Dr. Shaia gives us back our central sacred text--the four gospels--not as conflicted and faulty historical records, but as a vibrant, luminous path of transformation. He reveals the Four Gospel Journey as a living guide, re-centering human life on wisdom, compassion and service, rooted in a mystical relationship with Christ. And the potential for this living guide is already becoming manifest, as individuals, groups and entire communities are using it all over the world, and the word is spreading. -Marc Andrus, Episcopal Bishop of California This book enriches prayer. Every word is delicious. -Mpho Tutu, author, Director of the Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation A book which will change the way people look at the gospels entirely, and I'm not just talking about Christians. -Lauren B. Davis, novelist, author of Our Daily Bread Shaia's ground-breaking insights over a profound template through which to navigate life. Here is surprising new wine from an ancient vineyard. -Cath Connelly, Celtic Spiritual Director, Harpist, Melbourne In a rapidly changing world many people are rejecting ideas about God and faith and religious institutions. Heart and Mind is a compelling invitation to give these ideas another chance. -John Stewart, Anglican Priest, Director of e Living Well Centre, Melbourne Alexander John Shaia is a thoughtful and poetic man, living the ancient rhythms of his Lebanese and Aramaic heritage. Alexander is a spiritual director, educator, psychologist and passionate professional speaker traveling internationally, lecturing and leading retreats and workshops.
