bby Johnson thought she knew what mercy was when she ushered Adesperate women toward abortion as the director of a Planned Par- enthood facility. She was wrong. It wasn’t until she understood the blood on her hands that she personally experienced the power of God’s fi erce yet tender mercy to transform her life. But she never imagined what could happen once she allowed that very mercy to infi ltrate her life and spill out into a hurting world. In Fierce Mercy, Abby calls you to experience a transformation of your own. Against the backdrop of her fi rst decade involved in the pro-life movement, Abby helps you discover God’s unrestrained mercy at work in your own life and take steps toward becoming a channel of that life-changing mercy in the world around you. She shows you how to model God’s mercy, freely offer mercy to those who seem undeserving, respond with mercy when others err or offend, and bear witness to God’s unrestrained compassion so that others may know him. This is Abby’s challenge to you: dare to do what is hard, what is right, and what is good. And do all of it in love. Fierce Mercy Abby Johnson with Cindy Lambert

EXCERPT Years of research and hundreds of conversations with men and women all over the country have formed the foundation for this book. These thirty-one common food triggers aren’t just triggers. They are shackles. It’s become clear that our enemy, the devil, has millions of us trapped in the bondage of unhealthy thinking and eating. I understand. My own journey from obesity to optimal health has been one that I wanted to experience in private. But God had other plans. When you ﬁ nd freedom and you live among captives, you can’t help but want freedom for others, too. The spiritual tug-of-war to exchange unhealthy patterns with God-honoring habits is the ultimate food ﬁ ght. But I’m in your corner. More importantly, Almighty God can help you turn to a new, healthier way to live. Through the pages of this book you will learn about external food triggers—issues like traveling, holidays, our culture’s obsession with large portions, and those who try to sabotage our efforts to get healthy. We will also expose internal food triggers—factors like stress, emotional eating, loneliness, and boredom. Together, we will break free from the cycle of frustration and pain that we have been trapped in for too long. More than discovering what it takes to have a healthy body, you will receive spiritual health for your soul.

EXCERPT What has you overwhelmed right now? Is there something that seems too big for you? Stress can feel like an invisible press we’re caught in. I felt it with every miscarriage. It reared its ugly head and tightened its clutches when my husband was diag- nosed with cancer. I felt it with every job interview rejection. . We’ve all felt the overwhelming “pressing and squeezing” of life’s circumstances. And so, it might encourage you, like it did me, to be reminded that even Jesus faced situations that were overwhelming. He too felt the suffocating and exhausting effects of stress leading up to his death on the cross. Shortly before Jesus’ arrest and betrayal, he withdrew to a place called the Mount of Olives (Luke 22:39). In a garden called Gethsemane, Jesus was overcome with a nearly crushing stress. It was there, Luke tells us, that Je- sus was in “anguish” (Luke 22:44). This was far more than not feeling great. This was a deep and intense grief. It was an immense weight. Anticipating his death was a gut-wrenching sorrow and pain almost too unbearable to handle. The mention of sweat like drops of blood is meant to show us that Jesus had reached the limits of his human suffering. All this he was enduring, for us. For me. For you. And of course, for the sake of doing his Father’s will.

Glean further inspiration by reading the stories of Christian leaders from around the world—Zimba- bwe, Haiti, Guatemala, Poland, Palestine, the Philippines, India, Zambia, Lebanon.

EXCERPT If you are a Christian, then you are truly a new person. That is how God sees you, and that is the basis upon which you will spend eternity with him. For every spiritual purpose, your old life no longer exists (see 2 Corinthians 5:17). But old thinking patterns often do. And while those thinking patterns don’t mean anything about how God now sees you or where you will spend eternity, they do interrupt you from enjoying the qualities of your new life, such as joy, peace, patience, and self-control (see Galatians 5:22–23). To shut up the devil in your life does not mean that you somehow keep him from talking. It means that you identify with the truths of what God says about you more than what circumstances, other voices, past regrets, or present struggles try to tell you. It means that you have determined that God’s Word is more real than how you feel, what you fear, or the ways you fail! With your mind set accordingly, when the enemy comes, as he inevitably will, to interrupt you, you can quickly stop him with truths about your position in Christ. This is “renewing your mind,” which keeps you from going back down those old pathways and patterns of thinking and feeling, and in time it brings the qualities of your identity in Christ from the inside out. As the Bible promises, changing your thinking changes your life.

EXCERPT More than a decade of genealog- ical and DNA research has helped me, and all of us, make connections previously unfathomable. The fl eshed-out picture clarifi es the profound costs of the political constructs of race and gender in the US and on my family and all those trapped in the talons of America’s hierarchies of human belonging. Several times, while researching the lives of my great-grandmothers and grandfathers I found myself weeping—literally weeping. If only the constructs of race hadn’t existed, Martha might have lived, Annie might have fl ourished, Augustin might not have been such a monster to his children, family fracture might not be such a pathology on both sides of my family—and every woman in my matrilineal line might not have been molested or raped. How do we measure that cost? It is infi nite, for it scrapes out the insides of the survivors and severely limits their capacity to fl ourish. Mine is the fi rst generation in more than four hundred years with enough distance from slavery and Jim Crow to try to assess the damage—and to demand repair. In the shadow of the four hundreth year since American slavery imposed itself on African lives—as scholars, documentarians, policymakers, and artists clarify the shape-shifting systems of control and confi nement crafted to secure white supremacy on American soil—we are compelled to ask one question, lest we fi nd ourselves in the same controlled, confi ned, shackled space four hundred years from now: How do we repair what race broke in the world?

This book reveals the lessons, mistakes, and principles that have helped the Bantums navigate race, family history, and gender dynamics in their 20-plus years of marriage, while inspiring readers to pursue mutual fl ourishing in their marriages and relationships. Marriage is about more than constant bliss or unending sacrifi ce, say the Bantums.

It’s the discovery of life in the gaps and the mysteries that emerge when we live in mutuality, believing that fullness is possible for each. Choosing Us refl ects the realities and demands of modern marriage and respects the callings and ambitions of both partners. It shows that marriage is about choosing the other’s fl ourishing on a daily basis, amid differences and even systemic obstacles, to build a relationship that thrives and refl ects the kingdom of God.

Cultivate an Imagination That Moves You toward Holiness

y Wilson has written for The Gospel Coalition, National Review, and the Christian Century y Author is a Christianity Today award-winning author y Foreword by Lauren F. Winner

ow do we become better people? Initiatives such as New Year’s Hresolutions, vision boards, thirty-day plans, and self-help books often fail to compel us to live differently. We settle for small goals—frugal spending, less yelling at the kids, more time at the gym—but we are called to something far greater. We are created to be holy. Award-winning author Jessica Hooten Wilson explains that learning to hear the call of holiness requires cultivating a new imagination—one rooted in the act of reading. Learning to read with eyes attuned to the saints who populate great works of literature moves us toward holiness, where God opens up a way of living that extends far beyond what we can conjure for ourselves. Literature has the power to show us what a holy life looks like, and these depictions often scandalize even as they shape our imagination. As such, careful reading becomes a sort of countercultural spiritual discipline. The book includes devotionals, prayers, wisdom from the saints, and more to help individuals and groups cultivate a saintly imagination. Fore- word by Lauren F. Winner.

A Call to the Transformational, Lifelong Work of Antiracism

y McVicker is founder and president of SheLoves Media Society, a diverse online forum for Christian women y Author brings a global perspective from a lifetime of grappling with racism on three di erent continents and through her experience living in apartheid South Africa y Author is a popular speaker and retreat leader internationally

s a white Afrikaner woman growing up in South Africa during apart- Aheid, Idelette McVicker was steeped in a community and a church that reinforced white supremacy and shielded her from seeing her neighbors’ oppression. But a series of circumstances led her to begin questioning everything she thought was true about her identity, her country, and her faith. Recovering Racists shares McVicker’s journey over 30 years and across three continents to shatter the lies of white supremacy embedded deep within her soul. She helps us realize that grappling with the legacy of white supremacy and recovering from racism is lifelong work that requires both inner transformation and societal change. It is for those of us who have hit rock bottom in the human story of race, says McVicker. We must acknowledge our internalized racism, repent of our complicity, and learn new ways of being human. This book invites us on the long, slow journey of healing the past, making things right, changing old stories, and becoming human together. As we work for the liberation of everyone, we also ﬁ nd liberation for ourselves. Each chapter ends with discussion questions. Recovering Racists Idelette McVicker

A New Testament Scholar Offers a Better Understanding of the Gospel

y Leading senior scholar writing a short book on a timely topic y A fresh articulation of the timeless gospel that the church has lost sight of y An ideal resource for seminary students, pastors, and ministry workers

oo often, the church hasn’t done justice to its own gospel because Tit has neglected how much the New Testament message is about deep involvement in life with God. Senior New Testament scholar Klyne Snodgrass offers a corrective, explaining that the church will never be what it is supposed to be without a recovery of the gospel. This brief, accessibly written, and timely book shows that the biblical message is about attachment to Christ, participation in his death and resurrection, and engagement in his purposes. Snodgrass demonstrates that understanding and appropriating the gospel of participation conforms with what the church’s great thinkers have emphasized throughout history and enables the church to recover its true identity. This book brings the notion of participation in the gospel to a wider church audience. While other studies on this topic focus mostly on Paul’s writings, You Need a Better Gospel shows that participation is the emphasis of the entire biblical message, including the Old Testament. The real gospel, which offers participation in life with God, is astounding in its beauty and its power for life. You Need a Better Gospel Klyne R. Snodgrass

A Leading Practical Theologian Offers a Rich Vision for the Church’s Future

y Root’s Ministry in a Secular Age project has been critically acclaimed y Argues that church doesn’t need to resist decline, but to nd a way to discover life y A practical ecclesiology that explores what the church is, and is for, in our secular age

ongregations often seek to combat the crisis of decline by using Cinnovation to produce new resources. But leading practical theologian Andrew Root shows that the church’s crisis is not in the loss of resources, it’s in the loss of life—and that life can only return when we remain open to God’s encountering presence. This new book, related to Root’s critically acclaimed Ministry in a Secular Age project, addresses the practical form the church must take in a secular age. Root uses two stories to frame the book: one about a church whose building becomes a pub and the other about Karl Barth. Root argues that Barth should be understood as a pastor with a deep practical theology that can help church leaders today. This book pushes the church to be a waiting community that recognizes that the only way for it to ﬁ nd life is to stop seeing the church as the star of its own story. Instead of resisting decline, congregations must remain open to divine action. Root offers a rich vision for the church’s future that moves away from an obsession with relevance and resources and toward the living God.

A Theologian and Historian Offers a Compelling Portrayal of a Living Christian Tradition

y Hart is a respected author and scholar y Author critiques the concept of “tradition” that has become dominant in Christian thought as fundamentally incoherent y Shows that the Christian tradition is not sustained by its preservation of the past but by its anticipation of the future

n the 2,000 years that have elapsed since the time of Christ, Christians Ihave been as much divided by their faith as united, as much at odds as in communion. And the contents of Christian confession have developed with astonishing energy. How can believers claim a faith and practice that has been passed down through the ages while recognizing the real historical contingencies that have shaped both those doctrines and those divisions? In this carefully argued essay, David Bentley Hart critiques the concept of “tradition” that has become dominant in Christian thought as fundamentally incoherent. He puts forth a convincing new explanation of Christian tradition, one that is obedient to the nature of Christianity not only as a “revealed” creed embodied in historical events but as the “apocalyptic” revelation of a history that is largely identical with the eternal truth it supposedly discloses. Hart shows that Christian tradition is sustained not simply by its preservation of the past, but more essentially by its anticipation of the future. He offers a compelling portrayal of a living tradition held together by apocalyptic expectation—the promised transformation of all things in God. Tradition and Apocalypse David Bentley Hart

A Well-Known Civil Rights Leader Calls the Church toward Justice and Diversity

y Author is a nationally recognized pastor and civil rights leader y O ers a prophetic call for the church to model reconciliation for the good of society y Racial reconciliation is a topic of perennial discussion

ationally recognized speaker and church leader Jonathan Augustine Ndemonstrates that the church is called and equipped to model reconciliation, justice, diversity, and inclusion. This book develops three uses of the term “reconciliation”: salvifi c, social, and civil. Augustine examines the intersection of the salvifi c and social forms of reconciliation through an engagement with Paul’s letters and uses the black church as an exemplar to connect the concept of salvation to social and political movements that seek justice for those marginalized by racism, class structures, and unjust legal systems. He then traces the reaction to racial progress in the form of white backlash as he explores the fate of civil reconciliation from the civil rights era to the #BlackLivesMatter movement. This book argues that the church’s work in reconciliation can serve as a model for society at large and that secular diversity and inclusion practices can benefi t the church. It offers a prophetic call to pastors, church leaders, and students to recover reconciliation as the heart of the church’s message to a divided world. Foreword by William H.

A Reﬂ ection on Western Christianity from an Indigenous Worldview

y Author is a Cherokee teacher, former pastor, missiolo- gist, and historian y O ers a critique of Western Christian theology y A short introduction to Indigenous theology written in an accessible, conversational style

his volume brings Indigenous theology into conversation with Western Tapproaches to history and theology. Written in an accessible, conversational style that incorporates numerous stories and questions, this book exposes the weaknesses of a Western worldview through a personal engagement with Indigenous theology. Randy Woodley critiques the worldview that undergirds the North Amer- ican church by dismantling assumptions regarding early North American histories and civilizations, offering a comparative analysis of worldviews, and demonstrating a decolonized approach to Christian theology. Woodley explains that Western theology has settled for a particular view of God and has perpetuated that basic view for hundreds of years, but Indigenous theology originates from a completely different DNA. Instead of beginning with God-created humanity, it begins with God-created place. Instead of emphasizing individualism, it emphasizes a corporateness that encompasses the whole community of creation. And instead of being about the next world, it is about the tangibility of our lived experiences in this present world. The book encourages readers to reject the many problematic aspects of the Western worldview and to convert to a worldview that is closer to that of Jesus.
