New Way To Love Your Neighbor
$17.99In a world that revels in outrage and embarrassing others at worst-or maybe just ignoring those we don’t like at best-Christians know they are supposed to “be loving” instead. But how? “Being loving” sounds nice, but what does love really look like, and how does it show up? Spoiler alert: it looks nothing like the world’s conventional definitions of love. After all, if those cultural approaches to love were working, why are you still witnessing people tearing each other apart on the internet, or avoiding your coworker in passive-aggressive ways, or fighting yet again with your spouse over who’s on dish duty, or bickering with your neighbor over whether your trashcan is parked in the right place?
In her much-anticipated debut book, compelling and sought-after Bible teacher Jada Edwards schools us all on how to transform our relationship with both God and others (yes, even those we don’t like!). In short, Jada reveals how we often get love wrong. But with the right definition and expression of love, so much can change-including our relationships. In this book, you’ll discover:
*How to release yourself from 4 limits holding you back from fully experiencing God’s love for you
*How to adopt 5 clear and surprising ways to be loving to those around you
*How to be curious, free, brave, resilient, and real in your relationships
*How to experience transformation in any kind of relationship
A rich, full, and loving relationship with God and others is possible, so long as you get love right. Are you ready to experience it?

Platforms To Pillars
$15.99A biblical response to living in a platform society.
Platform: A mentality, a way of approaching life, which promises to reinforce our uniqueness, deliver on our desires, and offer validation and visibility.
A platform society emphasizes individualism and performance. It’s rooted in the belief that self and personal desires are preeminent. In Platforms to Pillars, cultural expert Mark Sayers explores how platform mentality is misshaping our contemporary world and contrasts this to the biblical call of Christians to live as pillars.
By looking at the ancient world–a world remarkably similar to our own–Sayers explores the flaws of a platform society. Sayers takes a deep dive into the influence and allure of digital platforms on individuals and society, and he invites readers to envision a legacy that lives beyond themselves. Like columns in buildings, human pillars provide support and strength. They work together to create space for others, partnering with God as He advances His kingdom in the world. Human pillars fortify and protect community through virtue and character and pass these values to others.
Sayers shows us how to delight in God’s presence, enjoying the freedom that flows from belonging to Him. A much-needed corrective, Platforms to Pillars models a biblical and better way for Christians to live.
