  "We are in the business of seeing others, seeing them the way God sees them, and letting them know they have value." 
   
   
   
  Amy L. Williams has spent three decades doing ministry with youth in gangs and prisons. While most of society sees high-risk youth through lenses of fear or disregard, she has come to see them through God's eyes as having tremendous value and potential. Worth Seeing provides an up-close look at her work—successes, losses, lessons, and embarrassing mistakes. Through personal narrative, Amy reveals the lives of youth who are often pushed to the margins of society. Her storytelling both challenges perceptions and increases compassion and understanding, not just with youth, but all people. Practical tips equip you to take action to see others the way God sees them.

  Igniting the Holy Flame -...

  The role of organized religion in our society is undergoing monumental changes. Church attendance is decreasing at unprecedented rates. At the same time, there is an increase in the number of people who identify as “spiritual but not religious.” Clearly, the need for religion remains as strong as ever, yet more and more, people are seeking spirituality elsewhere. Why? What accounts for these trends? Can organized religion still play a valuable role in today’s world? Affirming that organized religion does indeed have the potential to be a uniquely powerful force for good, Igniting the Holy Flame argues that organized religions too often fall into a trap of their own making, inadvertently fixating on a punitive rule-keeping culture that alienates believers and encourages conformity over an honest pursuit of spirituality. The antidote is “authentic fellowship”—pursuing deep and meaningful connections with oneself, others, and the divine. Ultimately, this book argues that organized religion can bless lives and build a better world for all of us when religions focus on helping individuals understand their truest inner selves, learn to follow the gentle guidance of the spirit, and pursue a life driven by authenticity rather than blind obedience.

  Once timid and unsure of her own salvation, New Zealander Florence Young rose to her calling and became a fearless and faithful witness for Jesus Christ. Eventually serving in the remote Solomon Islands and, for a season, in China during the deadly Boxer Rebellion, Florence began her service close to home. This one woman's mission to the Solomon Islanders, or Kanakas, working on her family's Australian plantation soon expanded to their home islands. There, as Florence and others helped Kanaka believers reach out to villages steeped in cannibalism and revenge killings, thousands of people were transformed by the love of God.

  Believers from all backgrounds are beckoned to care about Israel because it's not a side topic-it's a critical aspect of the good news of the gospel. 
  Jesus has a beautiful plan He set in motion at creation, and He's not giving up on what He wanted from the start. This book will anchor you in biblical hope, setting you on a path to be free from the fleeting cares of this age and engage wholeheartedly with the mission of God. It's a must-read for missionaries and church leaders to get a glimpse into the burning heart of God for Israel and to see why Jerusalem is epically important in Jesus' mission for the earth. 
  Today, there circulates many waves and winds of doctrine that cloud the lens through which believers read the Bible. This book aims to cut through the noise and deliver you from the confusion, blindness, and ignorance that have crept into the body of Christ regarding God's purpose for Israel. You'll get tethered to the heartbeat of God that thunders from Genesis to Revelation, and care more deeply about Jesus' glorious future for Israel.
