MAN Up! is a biblical challenge to men to embrace their God-given glory by assuming their God-ordained role. My goal for this book is to give you a helpful tool for measuring yourself as a man, a standard for your sons to aim at, and a scale for weighing your future son(s)-in-law(s).

Masculinity is under attack in the modern world. Never in human history has disrespect, dishonor, and confusion been so prevalent in world society over the nature of a man. Knowing nothing about manhood or how to be a man at birth, a male child grows up wondering who he is and how to live. This is not how God intended things to be.

God made man in His image. God came to earth as a man. God loves men and has given them the opportunity to live with Him forever in honor and glory. While a man’s value is no greater than his fellow created image-bearer, woman, his role and purpose are unique as defined by God.

God has given us men a clear purpose for our lives, a clear target to shoot for. This book helps you focus on that target with practical ideas for helping you hit the bullseye. You need to make the decision to man up!

Yet by presenting Spurgeon in his social, historical, and religious contexts, DiPrima helps us comprehend the whole of Spurgeon’s ministry in metropolitan London. Combining academic expertise with popular presentation, this short biography of the famed Prince of Preachers will be the go-to introduction on Spurgeon for years to come.

What Not to Do on Vacation

Author(s): Rachel Magee
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Price: $1.99       (Ends Jul 31)

Ten Things I Hate About You meets the charm (and sisterly shenanigans!) of Netflix’s Nobody Wants This in this slow-burn, fake dating rom-com from the author Kate O’Keeffe says “you can get utterly lost in.”

Savannah is on a mission to reconnect the Prestly sisters the best way she knows how: reliving their carefree childhood summers at the beach. She’s booked the same beach house, convinced her sisters to take the month off, and even made a bucket list to fit in all their favorite coastal fun. It’s going to be perfect . . . or else. (And if planning this trip has anything to do with a certain secret she’s hiding . . . well, let’s not dwell on that.) Sun, sand, and some sisterly bonding–what could possibly go wrong?

Enter Bianca, the baby of the family, with a huge announcement: she’s getting married! And her sisters’ reactions are . . . not exactly what she hoped for. But Bianca is on a mission to prove that she’s not the mess they think she is. Her grand plan? To find love for Cora, her perpetually single sister, on the same dating app where she found her fiancé. The stakes? A bet that if Cora can’t find her ‘One’ on the app, Bianca will call off her engagement. A challenge Bianca is all too ready to tackle head-on, even if it means a little conniving. Cora’s about to get swept off her feet, whether she likes it or not!
