Sinopsis

“By the grace of God I am what I am: and His grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.”—1 Cor. 15:10.
 
This passage of Scripture sums up the life of the Apostle Paul in a single sentence. It also sums up, describes, explains and interprets the life of D. L. Moody. Mr. Moody differed in many notable respects from any other man of the century. This verse explains wherein he differed and why he differed. He has labored more than we all, and accomplished more than we all; but it was altogether the grace of God that made him to differ. The grace of God bestowed upon him “was not in vain.” He let grace have its perfect work. The grace bestowed upon us is often in vain. We will not accept it in its fullness and let it work out its glorious consummation.
 
The life and death of Mr. Moody are full of lessons. Lessons that it would take volumes to fully recount. We must confine ourselves to some of those that are most striking and fundamental.

Singleness isn't a problem to be solved. It's not a phase, a stage, or a season. It's just another route to togetherness. Because regardless of relationship status, we all have the same desire for nearness, understanding, and love. We all need friendships and dinner parties, celebrations and commiseration, lament and commitment. We all need community—and we all need Jesus. 
 
 
 
Through her relatable storytelling, deep theological insight, and practical wisdom, Melissa Zaldivar offers a refreshing take on being single in the church. She shows single people how to intentionally build authentic, life-giving relationships that put our mutual faith in Christ at the center rather than the cultural trappings of dating, marriage, parenthood, and other false distinctions. 
 
 
 
Your community is waiting. Let's come to one another with open arms and proclaim, "Get over here!" with joy and hope.

Will You Accept God's Gift of Sabbath Rest?
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.
In Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest, you'll find:

- Practical steps for embedding sabbath rhythms in churches and organizations, grounding us in God's intentions in giving us the gift of sabbath,
- An opportunity at the end of each chapter to reflect and engage God around your own journey with the material, and
- A conversation guide for small groups and communities to foster transformation on a community-level.
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.

Body shaming. Marriage shaming. Single shaming. Mom shaming. Lifestyle shaming. Religious shaming. It seems no matter which direction we turn, women can’t shake the shame that is constantly piled on top of us.  Author and podcaster Jasmine L. Holmes knows this struggle all too well. Though shame has been a constant companion (and even a snare) throughout her life, God has broken the chains of shame in Jasmine’s life through the power of the gospel. In this Christ-centered, empowering book, prepare to discover:  The story of shame: where it comes from, what it is, what makes it different from guilt or conviction, and why it’s so pervasive.  The problem with shame: why the typical methods of throwing off shame don’t actually work.  The end of shame: how Jesus puts an end to shame by offering a better covering, a better image, and a better message than the world can.  The way to fight shame: how to use practical and powerful ways to fight shame in daily life, breaking its chains in the power of the gospel and resting in the One who has taken all your shame away for good.  The story of shame is a powerful one. But even stronger are the arms of the One who carried your shame and will never cast you out. Are you ready to experience Him and finally be free?
