Enjoy these SAMPLE pages from Honest to God- Is hypocrisy eroding your trust in relationships, the church, or even yourself? We long to know there is a God - and, yes, a community - who is big enough to accept us for who we are and loving enough not to leave us that way. Imagine how our relationships and witness would change if Christians everywhere began to live in a more authentic manner. Throughout the Bible, we find heroes of the faith who lived with daring, messy honesty before God and others--their example is worth emulating. Honest to God is a practical and riveting study of biblical honesty. Follow next generation author, Josh Weidmann, as he takes the reader on a journey toward true Christian authenticity. Both biblical and contemporary examples will give you practical principles and tools for self-examination that will lead to the freedom and transformation that come only through honesty.

Enjoy these SAMPLE pages from Lord, Change Me- Are you truly serious about allowing the power of God to transform your life? If you are, then prepare yourself for an incredible, life-changing experience. Change is difficult, but it's made even harder without practical guidance on how to do it. You will find that guidance in Lord, Change Me. James MacDonald is serious about the business of change according to God's Word. While many tell us that we should change and be more like Christ, MacDonald actually teaches us how to do it. Lord, Change Me is split into three sections as the model for approaching change: The Preparation for Change: choosing the right method and partnering with God to select the areas in need of change in your life. The Process of Change: exploring the biblical method of saying 'no' to sinful patterns and 'yes' to the things God desires for you. The Power to Change: explaining how to experience the power of God personally and continuously. This is a book about a different you. There are no warm fuzzies within these pages. Rather, MacDonald is a direct, to-the-point pastor with a heart for seeing lives completely transformed by the truth of the Gospel. If you're serious about changing your life, this book is just what you need.

Enjoy these SAMPLE pages from The Post-Church Christian- A Baby Boomer and a Millennial... a father and a son... a conversation about the church... a misunderstanding waiting to happen... right? Drawing on experience in missions, pastoral work, and higher education-Moody Bible Institute president, Paul Nyquist, and his son, Carson Nyquist, will lead us on an honest, thoughtful, and dangerous expedition toward The Disconnect. That space, often filled with awkward silences and clenched jaws, that exists between the two largest generations in our world today. The differences are myriad. Millennials value: Raw reality. Authenticity. A missional focus. Questioning everything. Community living. Contentment with ambiguity-both scripturally and morally. Boomers value: Doctrinal purity and clarity. Traditional values. Consumerism. Corporate Ladder Climbing. Bigger is Better. Evangelism of the Lost. Classic lines of authority. Rather than judging each other on the culture we come from-this book will open a dialogue between generations that will have a great effect on churches, ministries, businesses, and families. Both generations will be heard-but will both listen?
