“Scot and Laura do an amazing job of teaching us what a good church looks like.” —Beth Moore

What is the way forward for the church?
Tragically, in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches—from Willow Creek to Harvest, from Southern Baptist pastors to Sovereign Grace churches. Respected author and theologian Scot McKnight and former Willow Creek member Laura Barringer wrote this book to paint a pathway forward for the church.

We need a better way. The sad truth is that churches of all shapes and sizes are susceptible to abuses of power, sexual abuse, and spiritual abuse. Abuses occur most frequently when Christians neglect to create a culture that resists abuse and promotes healing, safety for victims, and spiritual growth.

How do we keep these devastating events from repeating themselves? We need a map to get us from where we are today to where we ought to be as the body of Christ. That map is in a mysterious and beautiful little Hebrew word in Scripture that we translate “good,” the word tov.

In this book, McKnight and Barringer explore:
The concept of tov—and how it can help Christians and churches fulfill their true calling as imitators of Jesus
How to identify toxic patterns and the warning signs of abuse within church leadership and their congregations
A path toward creating a safe and healthy community marked by justice, truth, and grace
A Church Called Tov helps us move forward together and reminds us church can be a place of goodness and healing.


Counter Culture: Following Christ in an Anti-Christian Age

David Platt

Revised and updated, with a new chapter on the refugee crisis.

Welcome to the front lines. Everywhere we turn, battle lines are being drawn—traditional marriage vs. gay marriage, pro-life vs. pro-choice, personal freedom vs. governmental protection. Seemingly overnight, culture has shifted to the point where right and wrong are no longer measured by universal truth but by popular opinion. And as difficult conversations about homosexuality, abortion, social justice, and religious liberty continue to inject themselves into our workplaces, our churches, our schools, and our homes, Christians everywhere are asking the same question: How are we supposed to respond to all this?

In Counter Culture, New York Times bestselling author David Platt shows Christians how to actively take a stand on such issues as poverty, sex trafficking, marriage, abortion, racism, and religious liberty—and challenges us to become passionate, unwavering voices for Christ. Drawing on compelling personal accounts from around the world, Platt presents an unapologetic yet winsome call for Christians to faithfully follow Christ into the cultural battlefield in ways that will prove both costly and rewarding.

his belief that the Christian mandate to “love your enemies” is the only way to peace in the Middle East

At the wood’s edge cultures collide. Can two families survive the impact?

The 1757 New York frontier is home to the Oneida tribe and to British colonists, yet their feet rarely walk the same paths.

On the day Fort William Henry falls, Major Reginald Aubrey is beside himself with grief. His son, born that day, has died in the arms of his sleeping wife. When Reginald comes across an Oneida mother with newborn twins, one white, one brown, he makes a choice that will haunt the lives of all involved. He steals the white baby and leaves his own child behind. Reginald’s wife and foundling daughter, Anna, never suspect the truth about the boy they call William, but Reginald is wracked by regret that only intensifies with time, as his secret spreads its devastating ripples.

When the long buried truth comes to light, can an unlikely friendship forged at the wood’s edge provide a way forward? For a father tormented by fear of judgment, another by lust for vengeance. For a mother still grieving her lost child. For a brother who feels his twin’s absence, another unaware of his twin’s existence. And for Anna, who loves them both—Two Hawks, the mysterious Oneida boy she meets in secret, and William, her brother. As paths long divided collide, how will God direct the feet of those who follow Him?

As It Is Written: The Genesis Account Literal or Literary?

Author(s): Kenneth Gentry Jr.
Publisher: Master Books
Price: $2.99       Buy Now!

The framework hypothesis or literary framework view has grown in acceptance as more readers of Scripture place “science” as the authority over the interpretation of God’s Word. By re-interpreting Genesis, this view encourages Christians to disregard the plainly shared timeline of creation and instead consider it as merely figurative or poetic rather than historical and accurate. Kenneth Gentry carefully defines the framework hypothesis, while tracing its historical origins and purpose. This provides a helpful introduction both for those who know the framework hypothesis as well as any hearing the term for the first time.

This important study:

– Presents strong exegetical arguments for the six-day creation approach to Genesis
– Illustrates the traditional interpretation of Genesis, a survey of exegetical arguments, and responses to alleged problems
– Demonstrates the flaws in the framework argument.

Spend 31 days in God’s loving arms and you’ll discover the secret to contentment in life.
Deep within, many of us sense a longing for fulfillment – a hunger that cries out to be satisfied. Wonderfully, God in His infinite love can satisfy this passionately felt need. Better still, He will – as we let Him. For when we seek to pursue Him first of all, writes author Ruth Myers, our satisfaction with life, ourselves, and our Creator truly is guaranteed.
Drawing upon her own deeply personal experience with a God who desires to be intimately acquainted with every area of His children’s lives, Ruth Myers paints a dramatic picture of a loving Father who gives us all we need to be satisfied – no matter how severe our struggles, failings, and disappointments.
Myers explains, “The heart that has tasted of God’s love will always turn back to Him with longing and say, ‘Only Your love can meet my deepest needs.'” In The Satisfied Heart, readers will learn how to enter into a deeper, more complete, and thoroughly fulfilling contentment with God – as well as a true delight in all that life brings.
