  Saddle Up for a Wildly Fun Ride  
  in Mary Connealy's Latest 
   
  Bailey Wilde is one of the best new ranchers in the West. She's been living disguised as a man for a while, but when Gage Coulter comes to drive her off her homestead, he quickly realizes he's dealing with a woman--a very tough, very intriguing woman at that. 
   
  Gage is an honest man, but he didn't make his fortune being weak. He won't break the law, but he'll push as hard as he can within it. Five thousand acres of his best range land is lost to him because Bailey's homestead is located right across the only suitable entrance to a canyon full of lush grass. Gage has to regain access to his land--and he's got to go through Bailey to do it. 
   
  Spending a winter alone has a way of making a person crave some human contact. In a moment of weakness, Bailey agrees to a wild plan Gage concocts. Can these two independent, life-toughened homesteaders loosen up enough to earn each other's respect--and maybe find love in  
  the process?

  What Did the Cross Achieve?

  A Classic Essay on Penal Substitutionary Atonement from Theologian J. I. Packer
  Penal substitutionary atonement—the belief that Jesus's death on the cross satisfied God's wrath against sin—is central to the Christian faith, but frequently debated. Is it just to punish an innocent person in place of the guilty? How can the temporary death of one substitute for the eternal death of many? Why doesn't the cross grant Christians unlimited permission to sin? 
  In this famous essay, late theologian J. I. Packer analyzes Scripture and the works of early Reformers to defend the truth of Christ's substitutionary suffering and death, the heart of the Christian gospel. Considered one of the most significant short works on penal substitutionary atonement from the 20th century, this careful, concise essay has influenced prominent theologians and is essential reading for students, pastors, and laypeople.
  
  - From Renowned Theologian J. I. Packer: This work was originally delivered as a Tyndale Biblical Theology Lecture
  - Part of the Crossway Short Classics Series: Other titles include The Lord's Work in the Lord's Way and No Little People; The Life of God in the Soul of Man; and Fighting for Holiness 
  - Includes a Foreword by Mark Dever

  If the past few years have taught us anything, it's that by and large the church has failed women. From sexual abuse scandals involving high-profile pastors, to decades-long systemic cover-ups of sexual harassment and mistreatment, to harmful theology that has driven women to leave the church and find community elsewhere, it's clear that something is broken. If we want to fix it, it's time we start listening. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on new, firsthand research and in-depth interviews, Safe Church allows women to voice the pain they have suffered at the hands of insecure leaders who were often unaware of how their words, actions, and attitudes were harming their sisters in Christ. With practical advice on how to create more equity and less sexism and abuse in the church, this honest look at how misogyny masquerades as biblical truth is a vital resource for pastors, church leaders, and anyone who wants to make a meaningful difference in their own Christian community.

  In "Co-Laboring with God: The Journey to Breakthrough through Faith and Prayer," readers are guided on an intimate journey to deepen their relationship with God, fostering a life rich with hope, trust, and transformation. Drawing from the lessons of Jesus and his disciples, the text explores the potent combination of faith and prayer as tools to achieve spiritual breakthroughs and navigate life's most tumultuous challenges. 
  Each chapter delves deep into critical topics such as the divine promise that fuels our dreams, the art of righteous prayer, and the mysteries of co-laboring with God, urging readers to foster a dynamic dialogue with the Creator. Through heartfelt prose, readers are encouraged to take risks, stand against life's impossibilities, and embrace the vulnerabilities that come with forging a close-knit relationship with God. 
  In this sanctifying narrative, the importance of maintaining a heart rich with kindness, influenced by God's grace, stands paramount. Readers are guided in how to mirror the benevolence of the divine in their daily interactions, cultivating environments where the omnipresence of God is felt through acts of kindness and understanding. Moreover, the text advocates for an active and righteous jealousy, urging individuals to seek a deeper connection with God through prayer, a practice that holds the transformative power to change lives and circumstances. 
  Beyond just a roadmap to achieving individual breakthroughs, "Co-Laboring with God" empowers readers to step into a role much greater than themselves, one where they work hand in hand with God to influence the course of history. By surrendering to God-sized dreams, readers are encouraged to undertake divine assignments, ones that overwhelm and compel them to trust wholly in God's plan.

  Savoring Scripture - A Six-Step...

  Some books on how to read the Bible are academically informative, but their rationality can make God seem distant. Other books are spiritually vibrant but provide few tools that truly help God's people read the Bible better. Readers need a guide that combines the academic with the spiritual—that integrates textual analysis with the illuminating and transformational work of the Holy Spirit. 
   
   
   
  Drawing from his experience training students to study the Bible, Andrew Abernethy provides a holistic method that helps readers listen carefully to what God was saying to the original audience and what God is saying to us today. Using clear examples, he lays out six steps: Posture, Flow, Context, Whole Bible, Savor God, and Faithful response. 
   
   
   
  Chapters provide guidance on interpreting biblical genres, factoring in historical backgrounds, reading each passage in context, tracing the redemptive storyline of Scripture, and more. Then, building on a strong grasp of Scripture's meaning, readers engage the traditional practice of lectio divina and consider how to respond faithfully to the text. The goal, Abernethy says, is to encounter God and to be shaped by the Word as we savor its richness.
