  "There really is more to this life, but it can't be found in our own conjuring, our own identity creation and curation." —Jen Oshman
  In our search for meaning and purpose, we can be influenced by idols like outward beauty and ability, sex, abortion, and gender fluidity. Even good things like marriage and motherhood can become symbols of idolatry. We may sense that these counterfeits are hollow and leave us feeling unsettled, but where should we turn instead?
  Jen Oshman equips us to reject the empty, cultural promises of our age and recognize our unshakable and eternal identities in Jesus. Addressing timely topics such as the sexual revolution, LGBTQIA+, social media, and feminism, Oshman provides compelling cultural analysis and engaging discussion questions to help us uncover God's good design and purpose for our lives. Good news awaits—we really were made for so much more.

  “I used to be a lesbian.”   In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could?   At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel.   Listen in order to understand. Listen in order to hope. Or listen in order, like Jackie, to be made new.

  Keys are an important part of our lives. I once heard someone say that the more keys you hold, the more power you have. I don’t know about that, but those keys give you access into locked places that keeps everyone else out. 
  This book, “Mystery of the Keys of the Kingdom,” will reveal a mystery that I believe will open the locked understanding of what Jesus was telling Peter in Matthew 16:19 when Jesus said, “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” 
  I believe the Lord has revealed to me five keys that Jesus released to the Church so they could be victorious on earth in spite of the challenges, hardships, and trials that the enemy would throw at them. Five significant gifts released to His children will change your outlook on life, giving you great confidence that you can and will overcome by the blood of the lamb and the word of your testimony.
