  The Holiness Experience and Its Evolution is a practical resource for pastors, teachers and church leaders engaged in ministry. It explores the emergence of Holiness theology during the nineteenth century and the crucial role it plays in liberating biblical views within America today. The book will reveal how conservative religious leaders were forced to consider a new wave of beliefs that brought the face of religious indifference to the forefront. The Holiness Experience and Its Evolution will reveal how the movement toward change regarding religious theology ignited the flame of curiosity, which brought about the creation of many religious denominations. The views and convictions of the followers of the new religious disciplines introduced controversial biblical teaching within America and the world. Readers will analyze the theology of the Protestant Principle and how the doctrine of Holiness can be found in its context. Much emphasis will be placed on enhancing the reader's understanding of the teachings of the gift of the spirit and to identify important developmental concepts as it relates to the division between Holiness and Pentecostal doctrine.

  "You need to try harder." 
   
   
   
  "Everything's fine!" 
   
   
   
  These are the sorts of voices that we all have in our heads, and they often push us to act in ways that are both unhelpful and unsustainable. How do we quiet these narratives? More importantly, amid the chatter, how do we hear the voice of God? 
   
   
   
  Gem Fadling helps us identify the competing voices and shows how they hinder our personal transformation. Drawing on years of spiritual direction and leadership at Unhurried Living, she shares her wisdom of how we make sense of inner voices and settle down enough to find our true voice. 
   
   
   
  Using the discussion guide at the end of the book, groups can discuss the competing voices that they experience within their own souls and learn to notice, discern, and respond to the movement of God in their lives. When we find our true voice, we can let go of the striving and people-pleasing and rest in the presence of God and his plan for our lives.

  In Rediscovering Wisdom - The Forgotten Gift, Marius Botha (an experienced insurtech and financial services executive, as well as actuary and pastor in Johannesburg, South Africa)  highlights how mainstream Christian culture under-appreciates divinely inspired wisdom.  His book serves as a comprehensive Biblical guide that aims to enlighten and revive Christians on the various expressions of wisdom and how to live wisely.  He offers insight's on Jesus's embodiment of wisdom, the Holy Spirit gift of the word of wisdom and why its a critical ministry for churches, practical guidelines on how to make sound decisions when balancing the gift of faith and wisdom, and does a deep-dive into the manifestation of wisdom in the Old Testament and its relevance for discipleship today.  He interweaves personal testimonies from the business and church environments, as well as difficult seasons in his life, and challenges the reader to speak truth to power when confronted with foolishness.  He also challenges the reader to confront their own foolish ways, and pleads for a healthy recognition of the gift of wisdom alongside other ministry gifts.  He summarises protocols for ministering in the gift of the word of wisdom, why it needs to be done with Christlike love as guide, and how to restore redeemed decision-making through the power of the Holy Spirit.  He narrated the Audio-book version himself.

  "Show[s] how deep reading habits help us manage distraction and bring about individual and communal flourishing."--Christianity Today 
   
  This book helps readers develop practices that will result in deep, formative, and faithful reading so they can contribute to the flourishing of their communities and cultivate their own spiritual and intellectual depth.  
   
  The authors present reading as a remedy for three prevalent cultural vices--distraction, hostility, and consumerism--that impact the possibility of formative reading. Informed by James K. A. Smith's work on "the spiritual power of habit," Deep Reading provides resources for engaging in formative and culturally subversive reading practices that teach readers how to resist vices, love virtue, and desire the good. 
   
  Rather than emphasizing the spiritual benefits of reading specific texts such as Dante's Divine Comedy or Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the authors focus on the practice of reading itself. They examine practices many teachers, students, and avid readers employ--such as reading lists, reading logs, and discussion--and demonstrate how such practices can be more effectively and intentionally harnessed to result in deep reading. The practices apply to any work that is meant to be read deeply.
