Gay Girl Good God (Paperback)
“I used to be a lesbian.”
In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could?
At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel.
Read in order to understand. Read in order to hope. Or read in order, like Jackie, to be made new.
The Family Story Bible Devotional (Hardcover)
It can be difficult to make daily Bible reading a habit with children. But reading the Bible individually or together, whether young or old, helps us to know God better and understand what He wants for our lives. This illustrated Bible storybook makes reading the Bible easier and enjoyable for children aged 6-10.
Although both stories and Bible passages are rewritten for a younger readership, they are based on reliable and trusted translations and always reference to where the stories can be found in the Bible. The 365 stories or passages are each accompanied by a thought or question, as well as a prayer, to help both children and adults engage with the message of the Bible and how it might encourage us in our day-to-day lives.
The book can be used as a daily family devotional or as a way for children to start or end each day with God as they read it themselves. If you’d like to read the devotions in order of the books of the Bible, an index at the back will guide you.
The Word Before Work: Monday-Through-Friday Devotional
Too often Christians are led to believe that only pastors and full-time missionaries are doing work that is eternally significant. But Christians who work outside of vocational ministry roles—be they entrepreneurs, baristas, or stay-at-home parents—are looking for affirmation that their work is eternally impactful as well.
Having researched more than 1,000 passages of scripture for its wisdom on vocation, Jordan Raynor provides 260 readings—one for each workday of the year—that offer Christians in any occupation biblical insights into what work means, why it matters, and how they should be working.
Guiding readers through selections in Old and New Testaments, The Word Before Work shows us that, no matter our calling, the work we do is central to God’s plans to restore fallen creation. Readers will not only gain daily inspiration to do work for the glory of God and the good of others, but will come away confident that our work has significance both for now and for eternity.
