Sinossi

A User-Friendly Introduction to Interpreting and Understanding God's Word
Many Christians view the Bible as a book that they know they should read, but it can be hard to know where to start. If they spend time regularly reading it, it can often feel like a chore to be checked off for the day. What many miss is that the Bible is a sweeping story full of narrative, poetry, and letters—something to be marveled at and enjoyed. 
In The Epic Story of the Bible, Greg Gilbert aims to teach Christians—or those interested in Christianity—what the Bible is and how to study it. Adapted from the ESV Story of Redemption Bible, Gilbert examines major themes woven throughout Scripture and shows readers how to understand its various genres, helping them appreciate the word of God with less confusion and greater confidence.

    It is so noisy outside. Every day, new voices tell you how to live, what to fix, and how to do better. A new book promises to teach you the next solution almost every week. But this is not that kind of book. 
    Let It Go is not a manual. It is a reminder, a mirror that shows you your most important resources are already inside you. It is a gentle call to return home to yourself. 
    For years, author Crina Okumus believed success meant running faster, working harder, and chasing money. She built businesses, achieved much, and yet felt empty until the moment everything stopped. In silence, she asked: Who am I really, and how can I truly help? 
    During meditation, with only a notebook and a pen, she surrendered, and the words came. For three months she wrote without stopping. What poured out became this book: a record of her journey through fear, darkness, and doubt, and her awakening into a deeper truth. 
    The book is divided into two parts: 
    •⁠  ⁠A raw and intimate conversation with God, flowing from the deepest places of the heart. 
    •⁠  ⁠Practical, soul-guiding chapters drawn from Crina’s path, steps that helped her remember her hidden superpower and the magic within. 
    Inside you will discover: 
    •⁠  ⁠The fall that wakes you, and how fear can become your teacher. 
    •⁠  ⁠How to embrace your inner beauty and feminine power. 
    •⁠  ⁠The courage to listen deeply to your soul, life, and God. 
    •⁠  ⁠Money as a mirror, one of our most excellent teachers. 
    •⁠  ⁠Why the right tools only find you when you are truly ready. 
    •⁠  ⁠And, most of all, that beyond every storm there is only love and the Source. 
    At the end, Crina offers guiding questions to help you integrate the journey into your own life, so this book becomes her story and yours. 
    Let It Go is not here to teach you how to become someone else. It is here to remind you of who you are.

    Workship - How To Use Your Work...

    The Hebrew root word for ‘work’ is also the root word for ‘service’, particularly service to God in worship. By combining the two English words, ‘work’ and ‘worship’, I hope to challenge people to integrate their faith and work. Work does not just refer to what is done in paid employment. I believe God sees work as any purposeful activity requiring focus and effort. It could be housework, schoolwork, caring for children or parents, study, paid work, voluntary work, etc. 
    This book explores the biblical view of work, provides six spiritual disciplines to integrate faith and work, shares practical wisdom on how to make a difference in the workplace, and offers ideas to help churches better equip their congregations to live out their faith at work.

    Faith - The Bedrock of Belief -...

    Faith is a concept that transcends boundaries of culture, religion, and individual belief systems. At its core, faith is a deep trust in something greater than ourselves, whether it is in a higher power, humanity, or even the unseen forces that shape our lives. It is often described as a belief in things hoped for, yet not seen, a force that drives us forward despite the uncertainties of life. 
    To define faith simply is challenging because it encompasses so much. In its most fundamental form, faith is the belief that something exists or will happen without the need for tangible proof. It allows individuals to navigate life with a sense of purpose and direction, despite not always having the visible evidence to support their convictions. Faith is not just passive belief; it is an active force that moves people to act, to endure, and to hope in the face of adversity. 
    Faith differs from belief in that it is often more deeply rooted and less contingent on immediate evidence. While belief can be held based on facts, observations, or logic, faith is typically more personal and transcendent. It requires vulnerability—the willingness to trust beyond what is seen or proven. It is a step into the unknown, a leap toward something unseen, and a commitment to something beyond the grasp of our understanding.

    ECPA 2019 Book Award FinalistSparkLit 2019 Christian Book of the Year Award FinalistYou recite it. But do you understand it?The Apostles' Creed has become so familiar to us that we don't think about what we're saying. Christians from different times, places, and traditions have been united by its eternal truths. We believe them, we recite them, but do we build our lives on them?The fact that so many in the early church died for their faith means they were caught up in something greater than themselves. What were those truths? How did they empower a revolution? How did early church pastors and theologians use the Apostles' Creed as the essential guide to the basics of the Christian life?Ben Myers re-introduces that creed. He shows us what about the Christian faith is so counter-cultural, and what truths embedded in the Apostles' Creed we've come to assume, when really they should amaze us and earn our allegiance unto death.
