This slow burn is the human experience–and the greatest invitation to become intimately acquainted with a faithful God.
Waiting is hard, but it’s not a punishment; it’s a process. God is not delaying; He’s developing. He is not leaving you; He’s loving you. He’s saying, Come closer. Let me lead you into wonder and show you how you can live wholeheartedly right here, right now.

Lean into the work of the wait–the constant, steady, slow burn of faith and surrender to your ultimate source. And you’ll discover the wonder of the wait–glimpses of heaven, a perfect love that changes you, and each step celebrated along the way.

Teachable Spirit : The Virtue Of Learning From Strangers, Enemies, And Abso
$26.99Being a know-it-all isn’t a fruit of the Spirit. But the ancient call of Jesus beckons us to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength” (Matt. 22:37). How do we love God with our mind? In A Teachable Spirit, A.J. Swoboda helps followers of Jesus develop the discipline of teachability.
In a world marked by distraction, mind-numbing entertainment, endless content, polarization, and a decreasing desire to humbly learn from those we dislike, the way we engage sources of information like news media, science, and social media content could not be more important. Thankfully, the Christian faith provides sharp tools and rich traditions for learning how to be the best learners. By drawing on his experiences as a professor, theologian, and lay pastor, Swoboda explores the potency of seeing learning as a part of one’s spiritual formation to Jesus.
With the right posture, Christians can learn from even the most unexpected places.

Christ Triumphs Over Sin And Death
$14.99Daniel’s prayer and seventy-week prophecy in Daniel 9 is unique and epic.
With Israel being in exile nearly seven decades, Daniel was eager for the nation’s physical and spiritual restoration. However, the Lord revealed that His plans for Israel would reach into the distant future, encompassing a period of seventy weeks.
In this remarkable revelation, God outlined a precise chronology when Christ would come and die to achieve redemption, and when the Antichrist would rise and reign but ultimately be destroyed.
At the end, Christ will return, conquer the Antichrist, destroy Israel’s enemies, and cause all Israel to turn to Him in repentance. Establishing universal and absolute peace, Christ will usher in His millennial kingdom and reign as King over all the earth.
