  “I always thought the Christian life was 50/50.” The young lady who made this statement had grown up in a Bible-believing church. She wanted to live a godly Christian life. But because of how she thought about the Christian life, she, like so many, had found her Christian life to be a struggle at best, and utter failure at worst. Sound familiar? I’ve got good news for you—your Christian life doesn’t have to be that way! No matter how impossible things may seem, there is hope. What you need is a paradigm-shift—a change in the way you think—that brings confident expectation for victory over sin, power in service, and reality to your walk with God. You need 0/100!

  In a world marked by transience, envy, and rootlessness, committing to staying put is a radical, unusual act. Hungry for rootedness, Courtney Ellis and her family decided to truly commit to a place and a people God had given them for a season, to grow some deep roots and discover what it would mean to be “all in.” Through winsome storytelling, Courtney demonstrates that there is tremendous growth when we stop holding a community at arms’ length and open ourselves to the blessing of stability, the grace of limits, and the joy of presence. This book is divided into these three major sections, with chapters devoted to each of the gifts that come with our increased attention to being all in?fully present, right where we are. Join Courtney for a thoughtful, funny, and realistic exploration of stability, limit, and presence as means of grace. Journey deeper into the heart of God that calls us to cultivate community?being present to what God has placed before us?and discovering the gifts of the present. Delve into reasons listeners might experience transience, how to press in when called to that, and how to know when it’s time to move on. Explore the ways borders and boundaries in our lives are for our good. When we are able to really commit, beautiful things can happen. With humor and honesty, Courtney draws in listeners who are longing for that rootedness, trying to figure out how to make this place their own.

  Praise Is His Gracious Choice -...

  In Praise Is His Gracious Choice, Dr. Tom Nettles clearly and succinctly demonstrates that true biblical worship originates with God, not man. Believers worship God because he commands such worship, and we willingly obey out of a desire to please him and be conformed to the image of Christ. This thoroughly biblical and theologically robust work is vital in fostering continued reformation within the church to bring all worship that would be God-centered, Christ-exalting, and Spirit-led into conformity with the truth of Scripture.

  Light of the Word - How Knowing...

  Susan C. Lim

  While Christians generally acknowledge that the Bible is God's Word, many of us lack robust confidence in the reality of its trustworthiness. We may not be sure if we really believe what we read. But the more we understand how Scripture came to be, the more we discover its power and truth.
  Historian Susan Lim unpacks how the history of the Bible bolsters our faith and anchors us through the changing tides of time. The story of Scripture, while messy and complicated at times, is also the story of how God shepherded his people throughout the centuries in and through these writings. Lim explains how Christians came to accept certain documents as inspired and not others, and how the books we now call the Bible came to be assembled and canonized as authoritative. The same Spirit of God who oversaw the writing of Scripture continues to be at work actively in us in our receiving and reading of it, to grow us in faith and maturity.
  Those of us who confess that Jesus is Lord can also confess with confidence that Scripture is God's Word. As the church through the ages has received and passed down the sacred Scriptures, so too can we receive for ourselves the living Word that God still speaks through today.

  Ditch Diet Shame and Embrace a Christ-Centered View of Food and Yourself   
  · For anyone tired of obsessing over food, weight, and appearance 
  · Discover the freedom you long for by silencing that critical voice in your head 
  · From a trusted nutrition coach and personal trainer 
   
  Even though as Christian women we know that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, many of us have been in a war with our own bodies for years. We tediously track calories, eliminate food groups, jump on the latest exercise trend, and wonder if all this business about balancing hormones is real or just someone trying to sell us something.  
   
  Through all the conflicting advice, weight lost and regained, and time spent berating ourselves for failing, we never get to the heart of the matter: why we started overeating in the first place or why our sense of worth has become entangled in what we eat and how we look. We focus on improving the outside, hoping it will make us feel better inside. But true, lasting, life-altering freedom is found by changing from the inside out.  
   
  Fully Nourished invites you to step off the exhausting treadmill of dieting and into the freedom Jesus offers. Certified nutrition coach and personal trainer Brandice Lardner gently guides you through sustainable practices grounded in biblical truth, sound nutrition, and habit-building science. You'll discover how to nourish your body without shame, renew your mind with grace, and build habits that support your health, your peace, and your calling. 
   
  This is not about getting it "perfect." It's about finally being free.

  Have you given up your dreams? 
    
  You were made to dream big! No matter what shut you down – discouraging parents or distressing circumstances -- the vision you were made for is still alive in God’s mind, and God wants to help you bring those promises back to life. 
    
  Part memoir, part practical guide, this inspirational book shares Spirit-filled lessons from a Christian wife and mother of eight who rediscovered hope in Jesus after nearly destroying her marriage and family. Today, she and her husband are church leaders whose children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren join them in their life of faith. 
    
  You’ll learn how tests and trials can help you activate the growth of God’s seed of faith. You’ll find tools to build a solid spiritual foundation. You’ll learn how to create the life habits that God tells us to add to our faith: virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience and godliness. 
    
  Faith is a gift from God, Mrs. Fozard writes, but it accomplishes nothing without our hard work to patiently help it grow. And when our faithful efforts seem to go unfulfilled … just watch God! Maybe the strength built in those diligent efforts has prepared us for something as unexpected as what happened to the very ambitious – but short -- high school basketball player she describes. 
    
  Stories from the Fozard family will encourage mothers and fathers in their own Godly parenting. Guidance from their experience and the Bible will help parents learn ways to protect children from phony faith that would lead to spiritual catastrophe. Bible-based prayers in each chapter stabilize the foundational lessons this book offers for a 
    
  Whether your dream is enough money, a godly marriage, a happy family, a solid future for your children, or a secure place in your community, here’s the strength to conceive it.
