Courage - Fighting Fear with Fear

Wayne A. Mack, Joshua Mack,...

Fear is so much a part of the human experience that we may think there's no escape. Our own earthly solutions fall short, but God has offered us a better remedy: a spirit of "power and love and discipline" (2 Tim. 1:7 NASB) that can overcome fear of others, irrational fear, and sinful fear. Through short lessons and discussion questions, Wayne and Joshua Mack show how we can find true courage by fearing God and trusting in him alone. This book can be used for individual growth and development, for group study, or for homework assignments for those in counseling.

The Good Mess - Finding Beauty...

Debbie Morris, Elaine Fisher

There are people who seem to have it all together . . . and then there's the rest of us! Within this devotional, mother-daughter duo Debbie Morris and Elaine Fisher candidly reflect on their victories, mistakes, and lessons learned and reveal how every situation is an opportunity to encounter God and see Him turn our messes into something beautiful. No matter what you’re facing today—chaos, grief, monotony, confusion, or a giant sticky mess on the floor—take a deep breath and a break as two generations of women discuss:  Navigating fruitful and dry seasons. Letting go of unmet or unrealistic expectations.  Finding freedom and healing.  Being present amid distractions and disappointments.  Meeting God in the middle of mistakes and messes. Their personal and family stories will inspire you, make you laugh, challenge your perspective, and open the door to an encounter with our good God, who loves turning messes into miracles. So we have a choice: we can chase the perfect life, or we can embrace the imperfect and see what God does.

Rinpoche's Remarkable Ten-Week...

Roland Merullo

Rinpoche's Remarkable Ten-Week Weight Loss Clinic brings back two main characters from Roland Merullo's beloved Breakfast with Buddha series. This time, though, instead of cruising the American road together, Otto Ringling and Volya Rinpoche are part of the famous meditation master's offbeat weight loss clinic, held over the course of ten Saturdays in a New York City yoga studio. 
 
 
 
Known—across twenty books, scores of essays, and twenty-five years of publishing—for being willing to try his hand at an unusually wide variety of themes, subjects, and genres, here Merullo works for the first time in the novella form, putting together a deft, moving, and tightly compressed tale that includes his trademark mix of spiritual inquiry and ordinary human emotions. 
 
 
 
While it does not promise to help listeners with their troublesome eating habits or other addictions, Rinpoche's Remarkable Ten-Week Weight Loss Clinic does look at those painful issues from a fresh angle, one full of sympathy and wisdom. It will certainly please lovers of the Breakfast with Buddha series, and perhaps bring new fans to the hundreds of thousands who've already enjoyed the travels and conversations of Otto and his enlightened teacher.

From Dropout to Doctorate -...

Terence Lester

"The author's message is potent and timely... this is a vital call to reform a broken system." – Publishers Weekly Review, June 2025
Discover An Inspiring Personal Story of Resilience, Redemption, and Advocacy
Born into an impoverished community in a two-parent household that later fractured, Terence Lester and his sister were moved from place to place by their mother in a search for safety and stability. Carrying the heavy weight of that early trauma, Lester's path led him to gangs, juvenile delinquency, and even homelessness, at one point living out of his car. He eventually dropped out of high school, another statistic in a system designed to fail him.
But his journey did not end in despair. Lester returned to school, graduating as a fifth-year senior against all odds. He went on to earn five degrees, including a PhD in public policy.
A Story of Overcoming Systemic Barriers
From Dropout to Doctorate is Terence Lester's powerful story of overcoming adversity to becoming a champion for educational equity. Lester shares his own story of resilience through trauma, perseverance through pain, and reliance upon community that led him to where he is today—not to glory in success, but to give back to the community that God used to shape him.
Connecting his personal struggles to the larger, complex challenges faced by Black children in under-resourced communities, Lester's story brings attention to what must be done to ensure that others facing similar odds have the opportunity to achieve their own dreams.
In this book, you will discover:

- A compelling personal narrative of overcoming adversity, from homelessness and dropping out of high school to earning a doctorate.
- In-depth insights into the realities of educational injustice and its impact on Black communities.
- A thoughtful exploration of how poverty, unjust policies, and the school-to-prison pipeline disrupt lives and perpetuate systemic barriers.
- An inspiring call for educators, leaders, and advocates to champion educational equity and a more just and inclusive world.

A Call to Invest in a More Just Future
As you travel with Lester through scenes both painful and hopeful from his early life, you'll see how God can take even the most broken parts of your story and use them for his glory. You'll be inspired to advocacy—to confront educational inequity and inspire change. From Dropout to Doctorate offers a hopeful pathway forward for those ready to reimagine what is possible for marginalized communities.
Will you be the next one to make an impact?
