  When it comes to our personal well-being, success is often more dangerous than failure. As we try to fulfill others' expectations, we deplete our time, energy, and enthusiasm and end up feeling wrung out or burned out, sometimes even flaming out in spectacular ways. It may feel like the solution is just to quit—our jobs, our passions, our ministries—but there is a way to pour into others and take care of ourselves. 
   
   
   
  Sharing the dramatic, true, and untold story behind the creation of Convoy of Hope, Hal Donaldson and his daughter Lindsay Donaldson-Kring pull back the curtain on Hal's journey to greater mental, physical, and spiritual health amid the all-engrossing task of starting and sustaining a ministry. They reveal the toll ministry and compassion work can take on both individuals and families, then point toward healing and wholeness. 
   
   
   
  Insightful and encouraging, this book offers practical, real-world solutions to persistent problems associated with being the hands and feet of Jesus in a hurting world.

  The blank page is not truly empty, it is filled with possibility,for even the margins are sacred.Part spiritual formation and part reflection on craft, Sacred Margins: On the Spiritual Life of a Writer  draws from Scripture, vast reading, and decades of experience in publishing to explore the interior life of the writer—the hidden places where words are formed long before they reach the page.Steve Laube journeys into profound facets of the writing life: the yearning to create, the alchemy of memory, the wonder of imagination, and the transparency of broken places. He also includes the difficulties writers face: self-doubt, waiting, criticism, time, success, and spiritual darkness, all while offering a deeply Christian vision of perseverance rooted in obedience. Through insights and spiritual exercises, the book emphasizes that words matter because God uses them to bring hope and truth. For those compelled to write this book will inspire them to see that the blank pages are sacred opportunities.

  From the Garden to the City -...

  From ancient tools to modern devices, technology is part of what it means to be human and honor God 
   
   
   
  Christian discussion of technology tends to focus along prescriptive lines. Don't look at the wrong pictures. Don't interact with pride or wrath on social media. Be careful not to join an immodest TikTok trend. Listen only to Christian music and Christian podcasts. 
   
   
   
  But a biblical perspective on technology goes far deeper than how tools are used, and involves much more than the electronics that pervade today's world. Technology is, in fact, a foundational part of what it means to be human—and it extends back to the very beginning of Creation. Technology was included in what God declared "good." But like all things impacted by the fall, it has immense power to rewire us for good or bad. 
   
   
   
  John Dyer's popular From the Garden to the City is back in this fully revised and updated edition, moving beyond moralism in order to examine the very nature of technology as essentially human and totally transformative. Perfect for both classroom use and individual contemplation, this book encourages listeners to open their minds to see our technological world with biblical vision.
