Vanishing Grace: Audio Bible...

Philip Yancey

In a time of division and discord, Christians have come to be seen not as bearers of good news and love but of judgement and intolerance. How did we get here? And what can we do about it?
In this audio Bible study guide, Philip Yancey—bestselling author of What’s So Amazing About Grace?—suggests practical ways in which we can live as salt and light within a society that is radically changing.
In Vanishing Grace, Yancey tackles challenging and timely questions and offers a discerning look at what contributes to the rising hostility toward Christians—acknowledging the ways that Christians themselves have contributed to this hostility and exploring how we can respond with both grace and truth.
In the wake of recent events and cultural shifts, people both inside and outside the church are thirsty for grace. Vanishing Grace calls us to see their thirst, and ours, in a hopeful new light as we listen, love, and offer a grace that is truly good news

Whitefield on the Christian Life...

Tom Schwanda, Ian Maddock,...

Biography Explores the Life of George Whitefield, an Important Figure in the Early Evangelical Revival
George Whitefield's bold "born-again" theology and passionate sermons established him as a key figure during the 18th century. Many Christians are familiar with evangelists of this time including Jonathan Edwards and John Wesley, but Whitefield, arguably the most significant member of the trio, often goes unnoticed in the church today. 
After experiencing a profound encounter with Jesus during his time at Oxford, Whitefield dedicated his life to teaching the Scriptures to others and calling people to experience the joy of knowing and loving God. This biography aims to restore Whitefield as a prominent figure in the early evangelical revival while addressing the complexities of the time in an honest, historical, and balanced way. Authors Tom Schwanda and Ian Maddock invite readers to explore the life of George Whitefield and his commitment to guiding souls toward Jesus. 

- Part of the Theologians on the Christian Life Series: Provides accessible introductions to some of church history's greatest teachers
- Pastors, Interested Lay Readers, and Historians: Great for adult education, small groups, and college and seminary courses on evangelicalism
- Honest: A full chapter is devoted to Whitefield's relationship to slavery and his contribution to establishing black evangelicalism

The Quiet Ambition - Scripture's...

Ryan P. Tinetti

Do you desire to do great things for God but feel like you're falling short?
Does your life feel small, filled with endless demands, seemingly insignificant work, mundane responsibilities, or challenging relationships? If your desire to make an impact for God's kingdom collides with the limits and disappointments of everyday life, it's easy to feel restless, resigned, and discouraged.
Scripture offers a better way. In one of Paul's letters, there's an unexpected, paradoxical call: "Make it your ambition to live quietly . . ."
In The Quiet Ambition, pastor and theologian Ryan P. Tinetti unpacks the rich spiritual wisdom of 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12, showing how it can help you reimagine what following Jesus looks like. Tinetti explores four key postures for living out your Christian life:

- Live quietly.
- Tend your own business.
- Work with your hands.
- Walk gracefully toward outsiders.
This call to quiet ambition frees you to embrace God's presence in the small, ordinary moments of your life. By shifting your focus from self-aggrandizing desires and internalized pressure for spiritual achievement to faithful living in the everyday, you can experience real hope and discover what it truly means to live a life that counts.
Are you ready to reimagine what following Jesus looks like in your everyday life? Order your copy of The Quiet Ambition and start your journey today!
