Rise of the Truth Teller
Author(s): Ashley Abercrombie
Publisher: Baker Books
Price: $2.99 (Ends Aug 6)
We are experts at hiding from each other. We withhold the truth, pretend we’re okay, and perform at great personal cost. In fact, many of us are so good at lying to others about how we’re “just fine, thank you” that we don’t even realize anymore that we’re lying to ourselves. We’re missing the opportunity to offer our true selves to the world around us, to say what needs to be said and do what needs to be done, and to live with grace and gumption.
If you’re tired of smiling on the outside while you are broken and battered on the inside, Ashley Abercrombie has a message for you–it’s okay to tell the truth about yourself and what you’ve been through. In being brutally honest about her own struggle to overcome addiction, rape, abortion, perfectionism, and dysfunctional relationships, she helps you break the silence on your own pain and shame in order to find healing, encouragement, and ultimately acceptance. You’ll learn to listen to your gut, courageously own your story (no matter how messy), and release those around you to do the same.

Everyone wants to be happy, and we all pursue happiness in different ways. Some people are thrill-seekers; others are homebodies. Some people are loners; others love big families or communities. Some people express things creatively; others consume what is created. Some sing; others listen to music. Whatever we find happiness in, we are united by our desire for work that matters and relationships that fulfil.
As Christians, we often fall into the trap of basing our hopes on earthly things, even when we know they only make us happy for a short time. But how are we to experience happiness in this life? How do we avoid expecting too much of earthly things and being disappointed, or expecting too little and (more…)

The wreckage of addiction lies scattered around too many people–from the one who is or was addicted to those in relationship with that person. Age-old culprits of drugs, alcohol, and gambling are joined by newer addictions, such as food, prescription medication, shopping, pornography, and technology.

Publisher: Reformation Heritage
Price: $2.99 (July 28-29)
A Spiritual Appeal to Christ’s Bride’ consists of nine sermons preached by Jodocus van Lodenstein, one of the most prominent leaders of the Dutch Further Reformation. The sermons stress themes that are dear to the preacher’s heart: the need for the Holy Spirit to carry the Reformation further than the mind, the need for perpetual reformation and growth in piety, the need to cultivate holiness and self-denial, and the need to know and experience as Christ’s bride an intimate spiritual relationship with Jesus Christ the perfect Bridegroom. The book calls nominal Christians to a more profound commitment to Christ, stressing that only such a commitment can deliver the church from shallowness and unholiness. Today, more than ever, the church needs (more…)
