  Navigating the Storm: Understanding the Crisis of Faith
  Many of us embarked on our spiritual journeys filled with hope and certainty, only to find ourselves questioning the very foundation of our beliefs as life unfolded. The faith that once seemed unshakeable may falter in the face of broken trust, unanswered prayers, and the harsh realities of worldly suffering. But you're not alone—mid-faith crises are a shared human experience that can feel isolating yet are a crucial part of our spiritual journey.
  In Mid-Faith Crisis, authors Catherine McNiel and Jason Hague provide a compassionate exploration of this challenging phase. With backgrounds in theology and personal narratives of their own spiritual upheavals, they guide readers through the complex landscape of doubt and disillusionment. Mid-Faith Crisis candidly addresses the often-unspoken realities of faith's evolution, offering solace and practical insights for navigating through turbulent waters.
  Through storytelling and reflection, McNiel and Hague offer practices and disciplines that help reclaim what is genuine and discard what is not. They reassure us that the crisis of faith is not an endpoint but a transformative stage that can lead to a more sincere and robust belief system. If you're in the midst of a spiritual reevaluation, Mid-Faith Crisis will serve as a beacon of hope, reminding us that while the road may be rocky, the destination holds the promise of deeper faith and connection.
  "Chaplain McNiel (Fearing Bravely) and pastor Hague (Aching Joy) deliver an approachable guide to tackling crises of faith. They trace how even strong religious identities can be dismantled by life challenges or new perspectives, resulting in a 'death of faith' that leaves believers feeling lost and isolated. Arguing that this uncomfortable stage can be a productive period in one's spiritual journey, the authors unpack how readers can harness feelings of betrayal to seek new "heroes of faith"—often those quietly doing good away from the spotlight—and use their doubts to create a more honest, intimate relationship with God." – Publishers Weekly Review, February 2025
  "Relevant and practical in a time of church leader scandals and faith deconstruction, this book offers an empathy-filled way forward." – Library Journal Review, May 2025

  A Biblical Vision of Gender Identity 
  Since the beginning of humanity, people have recognized the distinct creation of the male and female gender in God's design. But with today's gender revolution, people are increasingly questioning who they are designed to be. In our society, gender identity has been divorced from biology and rerooted in psychology. Do the core teachings of the Bible uphold these modern ideas?
  In this concise booklet, Samuel Ferguson carefully and compassionately compares the core beliefs and practices of the transgender movement with fundamental truths expressed in Scripture. Ferguson argues human identity is not determined by the individual but is given to us by our Creator, who designed our bodies and minds with purpose and encourages us to live in Christlikeness—choosing the path of God-given transformation over man-made transition. 
  
  - Short, Accessible Format: A concise biblical exploration of gender identity 
  - TGC Hard Questions Series: Equips readers with answers to difficult questions facing the modern church  
  - Great Resource for Parents, Pastors, or Those Struggling with Gender Identity: Offers advice for tackling personal and corporate controversies related to sex and gender

  Do Jewish Lives Matter? - A Play

  The play, “Do Jewish Lives Matter” arose out of the Crown Heights Riot in Brooklyn, a Pogrom where a Black boy was accidentally killed by a Hasidic driver with devastating results. James Baldwin, the famous Negro writer, as far back as 1948 wrote, “Georgia has the Negro as a target of hatred. Harlem has the Jew.” 
   In 1973 Rabbi Kahane wrote, “In no way should we refuse to see the danger to Jews that comes from Black hatred. It is of epidemic proportions.” And again in 1977, when addressing an audience, he said, “In Crown Heights, where poor Jews live side by side with Blacks and are regularly robbed, mugged, terrorized, a Black explosion against them is inevitable.”

  Dr. Quinn meets Bridgerton in this new series set on the Alaskan frontier.  
  Jonas Redding never wants to be a lawman again. He’s spent a decade as a US Marshal, wearing a tin star on his chest and chasing dangerous criminals across the great state of Texas. But when a case goes wrong, Jonas finds himself standing over two tombstones—his mother’s and his fiancée’s. 
  Resolved to protect his sister from meeting the same fate, Jonas cuts off all communication with her, changes his name, and heads north to the vast, untamed Alaskan wilderness. 
  Jonas isn’t even in Alaska for a day before meeting Ilya Amos, a boy with wide eyes, an endless smile, and a heart of pure gold. Before he realizes what’s happening, Jonas finds himself sucked into the everyday life of the Amoses—a sprawling family of eight siblings who are more Alaskan than American and unapologetic about their heritage. 
  Yet Jonas is resolved not to get too close to the Amoses, especially Ilya’s older sister Evelina. The last thing he wants to do is put another woman in jeopardy. 
  But when the unthinkable happens and dangerous men seek revenge against the Amos family, Jonas must decide between hiding from his past or putting his badge back on and risking everything to save the family he doesn’t want to admit he loves. 
  Set against the sprawling backdrop of Alaska, this sweeping book brings to life the hope of second chances and new beginnings after tragedy, and the rich history of taming a land that was never meant to be tamed.
