  Which are you...striving for perfect, or settled and present?   
  You can't be both.   
  We’re all pushing for something, for the life we think we want. We strive and strain and orchestrate and negotiate, in hopes of stitching together an existence that satisfies, but in the end, all that forced movement, all that contrived exertion, leaves us writhing in pain, in agony, right inside the reality we ourselves created. The pain shows up in addiction. Or in a string of failed relationships. It shows up in overeating, overdrinking, overspending, overfunctioning, over-everything. 
  In Present Over Perfect, Shauna Niequist invites us to consider the landscape of our life, and what it might look like to leave behind the pressure to be perfect and begin the life-changing practice of simply being present. In this six-week study, you will answer some vital questions: Have you become someone you wouldn’t want to be around?Are you longing for connection but settling for busy?What sacrifices are you making in order to play the role you find yourself playing?What “no” do you have to say when you say yes? Is this a wise thing to say no to?What has your need for speed cost you along the way?What attitudes, expectations, neuroses, habits, and obligations would you have to upend in order to care more purposefully for your soul?  
  Present Over Perfect is a hand reaching out, pulling you free from the constant pressure to perform faster, push harder, and produce more, all while maintaining an exhausting image of perfection. Discover an entirely new way to live…soaked in grace, rest, silence, simplicity, prayer, and connection with the people that matter most.

  A Leading Expert Demystifies Angels and How They Interact with People 
   
   
   
  Angels have a vital role in the Kingdom of God—and in the lives of believers. Yet many Christians treat the existence of angels lightly or fail to consider them at all. In Angels Are for Real Judith MacNutt pulls back the curtain on this intriguing topic, recounting inspiring, true-life stories and miraculous interactions, revealing what the Bible says about these heavenly beings, and offering insight into the spiritual realm. She draws on solid scriptural support to explore what angels look like, what they do, why they are important in believers' lives, the heavenly hierarchy, what fallen angels are, and more. 
   
   
   
  Angels Are for Real is an accessible, comprehensive, encouraging guide for Christians. When believers grasp the importance of angels to God—and themselves—they will better understand God's power and his extraordinary love.

  Defending Sin - A Response to...

  Southwestern Journal of Theology 2024 Book Award (Honorable Mention, Theological Studies) 
   
  The conflict between the natural sciences and Christian theology has been going on for centuries. Recent advances in the fields of evolutionary biology, behavioral genetics, and neuroscience have intensified this conflict, particularly in relation to origins, the fall, and sin. These debates are crucial to our understanding of human sinfulness and necessarily involve the doctrine of salvation. Theistic evolutionists have labored hard to resolve these tensions between science and faith, but Hans Madueme argues that the majority of their proposals do injustice both to biblical teaching and to long-standing doctrines held by the mainstream Christian tradition. 
   
  In this major contribution to the field of science and religion, Madueme demonstrates that the classical notion of sin reflected in Scripture, the creeds, and tradition offers the most compelling and theologically coherent account of the human condition. He answers pressing challenges from the physical sciences on both methodological and substantive levels. Scholars, pastors, students, and interested lay readers will profit from interacting with the arguments presented here.

  Read by the author. 
  Though many today accuse Christianity of being a white, imperialistic religion, it is actually the source for cherished Western ideals of racial and gender equality. In More Than a White Man's Religion, author and speaker Abdu Murray shares stories from the Bible and his own experiences as a global apologist, a member of an ethnic minority, a son of immigrants, and a former Muslim to show that the gospel message provides dignity and liberty to non-whites and women. 
  More Than a White Man's Religion reveals:The ethnically diverse roots of biblical stories and passages that inspired some of the greatest social reforms in historyHow challenging and sometimes confusing Bible passages and stories can be best understood to champion equality for ethnically diverse people and womenWays believers can bring real and lasting change to our culture's pervasive racial, ethnic, and gender equality issues by following Jesus' and his followers' examples 
  Without overlooking the places where Christianity has failed to live up to its own ideals, Murray challenges the myth that Christianity is an oppressive, Western religion and shows believers how to better fulfill their God-given mandate to uphold the dignity of every human being. 
  Tackling head-on one of the most serious challenges to the Christian faith in our multicultural age, More Than a White Man's Religion demonstrates how the gospel can inspire positive change for modern culture.
