In God’s Good Image
How Jesus Dignifies, Shapes, and Confronts Our Cultural Identities
$14.99 / CAD $20.99
ISBN: 9781513813684
Pub Date: 12/03/2024
Cultural identity matters—to us and to Jesus.
Culture—that nebulous and easily tossed-around term—is all around us. Nothing we think, do, or say is outside of it. For people of faith, experiences around cultural identity can lead to confusion and conflict, hurt and harm, even as we seek to follow Christ together.
But the story of God is clear: We are all made in God’s good image, and God’s people are meant to be a diverse community. No matter where you come from and no matter how complex our cultural narratives, the Scriptures point to the One who embodied a particular identity—of a Jewish man in first-century Palestine—in order to shape our own. God dignifies our culture and wants us to shape it to look more like Jesus.
Looking to the example of Jesus, author J. W. Buck offers practical insights into how cultural identity fits...
The Homestead Cook
Everyday Favorites to Celebrate Rich, Simple Living
$32.99 / CAD $44.87
ISBN: 9781513814520
Pub Date: 11/05/2024
Simple family recipes rooted in a heritage of family, food, and faith
In a world full of options, we hunger for simplicity. In a world full of change, we feel nostalgia for the memories of old. In a world of limited connections, we long for deeper relationships. In a world full of the digital, we want to touch and taste.
The Homestead Cook celebrates tradition, simplicity, and relationships through classic recipes from a Christian family farmstead. These recipes—from appetizers and beverages to main dishes and desserts—are rich in flavor and use common ingredients, offering simple twists on beloved favorites. Many of the dishes have been enjoyed around the author’s family dinner table for generations and are ready to be shared at yours. Author Jody L. Bahler also incorporates favorite dishes from her family business, The Homestead, a home-style bakery, deli, and gift shop in Indiana.

Love, Auntie
Parables and Prayers for Sacred Belonging
$21.99 / CAD $29.91
ISBN: 9781513814544
Pub Date: 11/04/2024
You are welcome here anytime.
Where can we go when the world refuses to see us in our fullness? When culture reduces us to categories and stereotypes, and even our churches make us feel like we don’t fit in? If we’re blessed to have an Auntie—someone who, like Jesus, welcomes us wholly and calls us beloved—then we have glimpsed the liberation and divine affirmation of sacred belonging.
Time and again, Aunties have offered a model for undoing, becoming, and embracing our identities and deepest beliefs. Auntie culture, particularly in Black spaces, is immediately recognizable as an embodied experience where nieces, nephews, and “niblings” feel safe, heard, and seen. Aunties, whether biological or simply beloved kin, welcome us in.
In Love, Auntie, Shantell Hinton Hill, aka Reverend Auntie, offers tender testimonies to a flock of loved ones who have been led to believe they do...
The Me I Was Made to Be
Helping Christian Parents Navigate the Identity Conversation
$19.99 / CAD $27.19
ISBN: 9781513814841
Pub Date: 09/10/2024
Your kids are talking about identity. Are you part of the conversation?
Today’s kids and youth are talking about identity—and often very differently from the adults around them. How can we walk well with them through their questions about who they are and how they fit into the family of God? We must begin by telling a better gospel story, with an invitational posture that actually expects us to love God and love others. Rather than resolve a tension around perceived right and wrong, The Me I Was Made to Be equips parents and pastors to tell this better gospel story—one that helps kids understand who they are, how God sees them, and why they are an important part of God’s story.
In this engaging and disarming book that speaks to readers across the theological spectrum, author and children’s ministry expert Christie Penner Worden invites grown-ups along to imagine...
Flyover Church
How Jesus' Ministry in Rural Places Is Good News Everywhere
$19.99 / CAD $27.19
ISBN: 9781513813721
Pub Date: 08/13/2024
Christ is present and at work in rural communities. How do we lead from that reality?
The tensions unleashed over the past few years, which led to skepticism, breakdowns of trust, declining church attendance, and uncertainty around community ministry, continue to linger in and among our rural churches. The temptation to operate from a scarcity mindset is stronger than ever. Yet God’s loving, redemptive work is happening in all places—no matter how small or far-flung.
In Flyover Church, Brad Roth, the author of God’s Country, approaches rural ministry in a way that recognizes its soul-deep commonalities with the church in every place. And he speaks a hopeful message into the distinct challenges—and promise—faced by rural communities. Tracing Jesus’ ministry and bountiful work among rural and small-town people and places in the gospel of Mark, this book offers a vision for ministry tailored to rural...

Compelling Convictions
Finding Our Future in a Modern World
$19.99 / CAD $27.19
ISBN: 9781513813622
Pub Date: 06/25/2024
A fresh look at our core values
In the twenty years since a group of Brethren in Christ pastors, educators, administrators, and laypeople first met to identify ten core values for the North American church, much has changed—including the continuing decline of the church in the west; dynamic social movements for racial, gender, and economic justice; vast advances in technology, and a worldwide pandemic.
With so much happening on both the national and international stages, it seems vital that we as Brethren in Christ prayerfully reflect not only on our core values and their application, but on how those values might help our churches engage a dramatically new social context. Are these values merely sentimental slogans? Or do they constitute compelling convictions, genuine guiding lights orienting us and motivating our mission in a rapidly changing world? The answer to that all-important question depends largely on...
Prodigal Gospel
Getting Lost and Found Again in the Good News
$19.99 / CAD $27.19
ISBN: 9781513813233
Pub Date: 05/07/2024
The good news is bigger and better than we imagined.
Is the gospel good news for us today? Many Christians—especially young Christians stepping into a world and a church devastated by division, scandal, and abuse—are asking this question and deciding it simply isn’t. For many, it seems like our faith has little to offer the world around us. Our gospel has become too small—it looks nothing like the Jesus who embodies good news in the flesh.
How do we recover this gospel? When we turn to the parable of the prodigal son—a story of elaborate parties, upside-down kingdoms, and reunited families—we can hear in Jesus’ own words a clear presentation of what he is doing, of a truth that is bigger and better than we’ve imagined. In these pages, author and pastor Jonny Morrison invites us on a journey to help us find ourselves and Jesus in the...
