    In his new book, Don't Let Nobody Turn You Around, AND Campaign cofounder and president Justin Giboney explores a compelling vision of how the Black Church's social action tradition can inspire hope and healing in the face of today's polarized culture wars. The spirituals of the Black church, such as "Don't Let Nobody Turn You Around," were rallying cries during the Civil Rights movement, making clear the connection between faith and justice during marches and protests. These songs encapsulated the unwavering faith and resilience of the Black church, propelling ongoing advocacy for justice in the public square. 
 
Centered on faith, justice, and moral imagination, Don’t Let Nobody Turn You Around offers a blueprint for public witness that rises above division without compromising Christian values. Giboney thoughtfully examines the principles, motives, and accomplishments of the Black Church's legacy, calling all Christians to a courageous and faithful engagement in the public square.  
 
In this book, you will discover the Black Church’s rich history of pairing orthodoxy and orthopraxy in its public witness; learn how this history can transform today's polarized politics; and explore how to value both social justice and moral order for a faithful Christian witness.

    "If you've ever wished you could travel back in time to the days of Jesus and ask all of the most difficult questions, this is the novel for you. The Carpenter's Son brings Christ into our modern world and will fill the reader with love, hope and faith in, not just God, but a better world."—#1 New York Times bestselling author​ Richard Paul Evans
Perfect for fans of The Shack and The Case for Christ, this inspirational novel is a reminder that, even in the darkest times, we are never alone.

Award-winning journalist Brooklyn Sterling has built her career exposing frauds, corrupt politicians, and conmen in the pages of the Boston Globe. Hardened by personal tragedy and deeply skeptical of anything resembling faith, she's the last person to believe in miracles. So, when a series of so-called "divine acts" sweep through Boston—including lives inexplicably saved, a blind man suddenly seeing, and a child brought back to life—Brooklyn is determined to uncover the truth and expose the hoax.
But Brooklyn's latest investigation takes an unexpected turn when she encounters a mysterious stranger who seems to appear at every miraculous event. As she digs deeper, the lines between skepticism and belief blur, and her carefully constructed worldview begins to crumble. When tragedy strikes close to home, Brooklyn is offered an opportunity no atheist could ever imagine: spend a day with Jesus Christ himself.
In a journey filled with hard questions and unexpected answers, Brooklyn confronts the pain of her past, the world's deepest struggles, and the mystery of faith. From a family broken by loss to a carpenter's son who sees the heart of everyone he meets, Brooklyn is drawn into a story that will challenge everything she believes.
The Carpenter's Son is a moving and thought-provoking novel that invites readers to walk alongside Jesus, laugh, cry, and see the world through his eyes. With unforgettable characters, profound insights, and a story of redemption and hope, this book will renew your faith in God, humanity, and the power of love.

    As adventurers from around the world raced to reach the South Pole and achieve other polar firsts in the early 1900s, outsider Ernest Shackleton and his motley expeditions would outshine even the British navy, becoming icons of the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration. Known for prizing loyalty, leadership, and skill without regard for rank or social class - and for bringing men back alive - Shackleton completed three death-defying Antarctic journeys. Called the Boss by his crew and Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton by the king, the Anglo-Irish explorer counted it all part of life's grand adventure.
