  Not Me Too

  The third story in the Chosen to Serve series centers on a man who is accused by his daughter of horrific crimes against her and subsequently stands trial. Jimmy is sent by the Lord to minister to him and his wife as they go through difficult trials – physical and spiritual.  
   Chris Peterson is arrested in the middle of the night and taken from his home. His wife, Tammy begins a battle she is destined to lose, as the couple’s business fails and the incredible expense and burden of an impending trial looms on the horizon. Chris faces life in prison if convicted, and during the ‘Me Too’ madness, conviction is a foregone conclusion. 
   The proverbial scales of justice are no longer balanced, and guilt in this circumstance is assumed, rather than innocence. The principles of America’s justice system are examined, and the systemic corruption is exposed. The fictional story reverberates with incredible insight into a world most of us never see.  
   This is a story of the search for truth, and how God brings adversity into a Believer’s life for His purposes, and how He so often accomplishes several works, with a single event. Due to the nature of the story, the reader should be aware that sexual topics are present. Parents should read the story before allowing children to do so.

  Named One of Fifteen Important Theology Books of 2022, Englewood Review of Books 
   
  This book demonstrates how two overlooked ministry models--base ecclesial communities of the Global South in the late twentieth century and hush harbors of the US antebellum South--offer proven strategies for the twenty-first-century church and contemporary social movements. These ministry models provide insight into the creation and sustenance of vital Christian community, particularly for those seeking indigenous culturally-rooted models, and show how to integrate vibrant Christ-centered faith and mission with world-changing social justice and political action. The book includes on-the-ground stories from multiethnic communities, a foreword by Robert Chao Romero, and an afterword by Willie James Jennings.

  In our frenzied culture, the possibility of living in balanced rhythms of work and rest often feels elusive. This rings especially true for pastors and leaders who carry the weight of nonstop responsibility. Most know they need rest but might be surprised to find within themselves a deep resistance to letting go and resting in God one day a week, let alone for longer seasons of sabbatical. 
   
   
   
  The journey to a meaningful sabbath practice is slow and gradual, and it is a journey we need to take in community. Sharing her own story of practicing sabbath for the past twenty years, Ruth Haley Barton offers hard-won wisdom regarding the rhythms of sabbath, exploring both weekly sabbath keeping as well as extended periods of sabbatical time. 
   
   
   
  Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest grounds us in God's intentions in giving us the gift of sabbath, providing practical steps for embedding sabbath rhythms in churches and organizations. Each chapter concludes with "What Your Soul Wants to Say to God," an opportunity to reflect and engage God around your own journey with the material. Sabbath is more than a practice—it is a way of life ordered around God's invitation to regular rhythms of work, rest, and replenishment that will sustain us for the long haul of life in leadership.

With an understanding spirit and a gentle hand, she guides you to bring your emotional scars "out of the dark past and into his holy light" where true and lasting healing can take place.

  Unlock the force of hope in life's hardest fights. 
   
   
   
  Good Catastrophe is your blueprint for finding your way out of pain. It is an atypical, no holds barred message of redemptive hope that will breathe new sunshine into your soul. 
   
   
   
  We need to rebrand hope. The era of everything in our lives fitting neatly in a box is done. That world is over. We need hope—but we need a hope that is robust enough to speak to real life. 
   
   
   
  Imagine the tide turning on your greatest challenges and problems. In a gritty and unique take on the story of Job, Benjamin Windle shows that flourishing does not come from a life devoid of loneliness, trauma, and anxiety. It's one lived with hope engineered for adversity. 
   
   
   
  Along with Job's story, he pulls from J. R. R. Tolkien's fascinating concept of "eucatastrophe," showing that your greatest good starts at your point of deepest pain. True hope is not hype. It's not pretending that everything is fine. Hardship, not perfection, is the starting point of hope. 
   
   
   
  Discover the secret to weathering life's storms, learn how to rise above daily imperfections, find out how to survive crises and come out better, and gain an ultimate perspective on every challenge you face in life.
