  In this fresh look at finding balance between work and sabbath rest, Justin McRoberts leads readers on their journey from false self to true self, discovering that growth and maturity take root in the knowledge of their belovedness in Christ. 
  In his two decades working as a full-time artist and spiritual guide, Justin McRoberts has experienced first-hand the tension between "The Hustle" and "Self Care." In recent years, that conversation has turned to argument as people have suggested that one is more important than the other. But Justin disagrees entirely with such a one-sided approach. 
  Justin says, "My natural posture is not work, nor is my natural posture rest. My natural posture is belovedness, and both work and rest spring from my belovedness, and return me to it." In this book, he uses humorous and poignant stories to help readers discover the deep truths about us being laborers for/with Christ, empowered by the Spirit, as well as worshipers of God the Father. Readers will learn howSabbath is a gift and a practice that frees us from the anxiety of proving ourselvesThey are loved and valued by God for who and whose they are—not for what they doRest is not the absence of work; it is what gives work meaningWe can love our world and the people in it through what we do 
    
  We are not tools in God's tool belt, valued only for our gifts and talents. Nor are we ascetics called to abandon "daily life" to find God in the desert and just sit there. We are beloved by the One who holds all things together . . . including our need to work and our need to rest. 
  Reflection questions are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

  Worship by Faith Alone - Thomas...

  In every age, the church must consider what it means to gather together to worship God.
  If the church is primarily the people who follow the risen Christ, then its worship should be "gospel-centered." But where might the church find an example of such worship for today?
  In this Dynamics of Christian Worship volume, scholar, worship leader, and songwriter Zac Hicks contends that such a focus can be found in the theology of worship presented by Thomas Cranmer, the Archbishop of Canterbury during the English Reformation. Hicks argues that Cranmer's reformation of the church's worship and liturgy was shaped primarily by the Protestant principle of justification by faith alone as reflected in his 1552 edition of the Book of Common Prayer, which was later codified under Elizabeth I and has guided Anglican worship for centuries.
  Here, we find a model of "gospel-centered" worship through which the church of today might be reformed yet again.
  The Dynamics of Christian Worship series draws from a wide range of worshiping contexts and denominational backgrounds to unpack the many dynamics of Christian worship—including prayer, reading the Bible, preaching, baptism, the Lord's Supper, music, visual art, architecture, and more—to deepen both the theology and practice of Christian worship for the life of the church.

  A Nonconformist preacher and writer of the seventeenth century, John Bunyan is well known as the author of Pilgrim's Progress, the epic tale of Christian's journey from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City-from unbelief, to repentance and faith, to the trials and victories of life, to heaven. Many people don't realize, however, that Bunyan based the story on his own life, which was full of dangers, obstacles, disappointments, tough decisions, and great encouragements.  Simonetta Carr introduces young readers to the story of John Bunyan, from his rebellious youth to preacher of the gospel and prisoner for the sake of Christ. His example of faithfulness to God will inspire readers as they learn about this important figure of church history.

  God Won't Leave You There, a study of Genesis 37-50, flows from Anne and Rachel-Ruth's teaching and ministry lives from the last year. They believe now is the time for readers to see how the power of the Gospel is woven into the trials of Joseph's life. They want to show readers that the same divine power that transformed Joseph's story is at work in their lives too. 
  Jesus taught that we will have troubles in this life. As Anne and Rachel-Ruth survey their lives, the lives of those around them, and the world at large . . . challenges are not in short supply. They discern that something is stirring in the world, and people need truth more than ever. They don't desire to discuss the causes of suffering but counter them with biblical hope. They strongly believe the message in God Won't Leave You There will be both timeless and timely for readers grappling with the challenges they face in their lives and see in the world around them. 
  The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, this audio Bible study includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover important Bible-based topics. These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. While not required for the audio experience, these studies are designed to partner with the coordinating study guide, sold separately.
