As James Brandon read and studied the Psalms over the years, he came to realize that the Lord was talking to our souls through these ancient songs. He was also struck by a book written in the 1800s by a man named Hawker, who after reading one of the Psalms would exclaim: “Oh my soul, what is this that thou hast found in the Holy Writ?” He would talk to his soul after reading the text. The author began to read the Psalms and reflect on what each one said to his soul. He has done that for fifty years. In this book, he focuses on Psalms forty-two to seventy-two: the Exodus Book of the Psalms, which encompasses restoration and redemption from bondage. They are songs that teach salvation, the doctrines of the faith, and how to take care of your soul. The Psalms are a wonderland of devotion. They have enlightened the author’s mind and encouraged his spirit. They can do the same for you—all while providing principles for living this life as you help others walk with the Lord.

In Light and Fire, author Nancy Pfaff shares the spiritual biography of Danny E. Morris, cofounder of the John Wesley Great Experiment. Morris, now retired after forty-six years in the United Methodist ministry, has challenged thousands of people to put God first in their lives. Morris created the Living Prayer Center, the Upper Room Program Unit which he led for sixteen years, and the Academy for Spiritual Formation, for which he has served as executive director for twenty years. He helped initiate the Walk to Emmaus movement, began a United Methodist monastery, and developed the Prayerful Discernment Network for "A New Kind of Church," which involves representatives from more than six hundred churches. Pfaff traces Morris's development as a remarkable Christian leader from his childhood connection with God to his continuing efforts to help individuals discern God's will in their lives and experience the healing power of humor. The foreword by Maxie Dunnam details his deep friendship with Morris and how it shaped each man's career, while interviews with Morris's closest family and friends provide new insight into his personal faith journey. The appendix features a list of questions for each chapter that invite readers to reflect on their own spiritual journeys. Ultimately, Light and Fire presents a powerful message of how countless lives were changed through one man's faith in God and his commitment to live through the light of Jesus' teachings into the transforming fire of the Holy Spirit.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Beginning your day with God can really make the day rich and meaningful, not to mention successful in ways you never dreamed possible. The time you sow in the morning is a precious seed that brings forth a beautiful day filled with strength, joy, and a love made sweeter because it begins with the One who loves you best. Good Morning, God is a wonderful morning devotional filled with inspiring scriptures, true-to-life stories, and encouraging reflections to help you fulfill the promise of each new day that your loving heavenly Father has given you to enjoy.

"A World of Demons: The Villains of Doctor Who”“One may tolerate a world of demons for the sake of an angel”—Jean-Antoninette (“Reinette”) Poisson, aka Madame de Pompadour, “The Girl in the Fireplace”What a world of demons Doctor Who has presented us with over the past seven decades: from Daleks and Cybermen to Weeping Angels and the Silence, the greatest villains of the Who-niverse have achieved an iconic status all their own, cementing themselves in the minds of millions of viewers (why else would Parker Brothers have devised a version of Monopoly after them?). If, as the Seventh Doctor once said, "You can always judge a man by the quality of his enemies,” the Doctor is great indeed, rescuing the universe time and again from some of the most formidable and terrifying villains in science fiction history. Now, for the first time, an entire anthology of essays is dedicated to deconstructing this gallery of blackguards. Who are the greatest Who villains of all time? Why are they so frightening? And—apologies to Shakespeare—what do they tell us about the villainy of our own fears?Featuring essays by Joseph Dougherty (executive producer, Pretty Little Liars; producer, thirtysomething), Steven Ashby, Anton Binder, Sarah Corey, Ken Deep, Jan Fennick, Hannah Friedman, Mark Givens, Nancy Hutchins, Jennie Jarvis, Don Klees, Chris Kocher, Robin Koman, Charles Martin, Michael Robinson, Steve Sautter, and Shane Thomas.Edited by David Bushman (Conversations with Mark Frost) and Barnaby Edwards (president, Doctor Who New York)
