She Works His Way - A Practical...

Somer Phoebus, Michelle Myers

Dear friend, 
 
 
 
We know it deeply. It is so hard to juggle work, home, and spiritual life. As working women, we've wrestled with tough questions: How can I be effective in my work, and stay committed to the Gospel? How can I be dedicated to my family, when my job is so demanding? Why am I working so hard, and still so unfulfilled? 
 
  
  
Sound familiar? Like you, we see a culture that promotes success at all costs, and working women are falling for it. It's happening every day. Priorities are shifting. Things are getting done . . . but are we doing what matters most? 
 
 
 
And that's why we wrote this book. This is the story of how we traded the lies of the world for the truth of our loving Father—the lessons we learned that challenged culture's "good things" so we could find the greatest thing. 
 
 
 
The book you're about to listen to is really a conversation—a conversation that pushes back against our culture with a Gospel-centered approach to work and womanhood, for the glory of God and the good of others. 
 
 
 
Let's get to work. His way.

Strangers and Exiles - Pursuing...

Jonathan Griffiths

Let the life of Abraham enrich your faith  Abraham is a foundational figure in the history of the church. But he is at the same time profoundly human, raw and real. Isolated in an unbelieving world, his story shows what it means for the Lord to take hold of a sinner, privilege him with promises, use him in his service and sustain him to the end.  Given the current cultural dislocation of Christianity, the central thread of Abraham's life is increasingly relevant. Ultimately, it speaks of a believer looking to a city with eternal foundations, and that story speaks powerfully to us as strangers and exiles in our world.

Post-Traumatic Jesus - Reading...

David W. Peters

After twenty years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, a global pandemic, protests against racial violence, and frequent shootings, more Americans than ever are living with the effects of trauma. The good news is that Jesus was born and died in a traumatized world, and his story speaks forever to wounded people worldwide. Army veteran and Episcopal priest David Peters explores Jesus' life story through the post-traumatic lens with which the Gospel writers first wrote it—as people who had seen their leader executed by the same oppressive government that had already shrouded their whole lives in anxiety and fear. Meeting the post-traumatic Jesus—the only Jesus the world has ever known—can be a balm to the wounds of modern Christians and spiritual seekers.

Bold And Broken (revisited) -...

Jason Benham, David Benham

The world doesn’t need bullies or bystanders. It needs bridges.
We are living in a cultural firestorm. Truth is under attack, lies are celebrated, and believers are pressured to either cave in silence or explode in rage. On one side is the ditch of reckless boldness—people who thunder with truth but have no love. On the other side is the ditch of passive brokenness—those who weep over sin but never stand against it. Both leave the world more divided than before.
But there is a better way. Boldness anchored in brokenness. Courage wrapped in compassion. Truth spoken through tears. That’s how believers become bridges—connecting heaven and earth, God and people.
In Bold & Broken, David and Jason Benham call believers everywhere to rise and “stand in the gap” (Ezekiel 22:30). Originally released in 2019, this updated edition revisits that urgent message in light of recent events—including the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk—that have shaken our nation and revealed the cost of standing for truth. Through powerful stories, biblical insight, and their own battle scars from cultural clashes, the Benhams show how you can:Resist destructive ideas without becoming destructive yourselfStand firm in truth while reaching out in loveTurn conviction into courage and compassion into connectionLive as a bridge in a culture desperate for hope
This is not a time to retreat. It’s not a time to rage. It’s a time to rise. To fight in the war of ideas with bold courage and broken humility—knowing we don’t fight for victory but from victory.
The world is watching. The gap is widening. But the church is strengthening!
The call has never been louder: Be the bridge. Stand in the gap. Now.
