  As the most lonely generation to ever walk the planet, we are drowning in a tsunami of record-breaking levels of anxiety, addiction, depression, and fear. To make matters even worse, traditional reprieves such as faith, church, family, friendship, and counseling have often proven futile as these paradigms have moved increasingly downstream of a culture in which people have been commodified into simply cold, self-serving capital. As a result, despite the vast amounts of time and money invested in searching for remedies, many have found themselves frustratingly unchanged and unhealed.

  It's no easy journey disentangling the good news of the gospel from the toxic theologies that have rendered Jesus unrecognizable. It's no wonder the church has sent many walking. 
   
    
   
  In The Road Away from God, Jonathan Martin reimagines Luke's story of two disillusioned disciples walking the Emmaus road away from the holy city where they had watched their hope die a gruesome death right before their eyes. 
   
   
   
  For anyone who is feeling their faith unravel, reckoning with religious trauma, or walking the long road of deconstruction, Martin speaks compassionate hope into the journey of today's disillusioned disciples, revealing that the resurrected Christ is profoundly present with them—even on what seems to be the road away from God. 
   
   
   
  With "a pastor's heart and poet's touch," as Rachel Held Evans once wrote of Martin, this is a book to help you feel seen in your spiritual journey and all its complexities, and to find resurrection even where you least expect it.

  Strange Religion - How the First...

  The first Christians were weird. Just how weird is often lost on today's believers. 
   
   
   
  Within Roman society, the earliest Christians stood out for the oddness of their beliefs and practices. They believed unusual things, worshiped God in strange ways, and lived a unique lifestyle. They practiced a whole new way of thinking about and doing religion that would have been seen as bizarre and dangerous when compared to Roman religion and most other religions of the ancient world. 
   
   
   
  Award-winning author, blogger, speaker, and New Testament teacher Nijay Gupta traces the emerging Christian faith in its Roman context in this accessible and engaging book. Christianity would have been seen as radical in the Roman world, but some found this new religion attractive and compelling. The first Christians dared to be different, pushed the boundaries of what was acceptable, transformed how people thought about religion, and started a movement that grew like wildfire. This book shows how the example of the earliest Christians can offer today's believers encouragement and hope.
