Millennials might endure negative labels from older generations--lazy, broken, entitled, lost--but the most damaging labels are the ones we use on ourselves. Words are powerful. Even when they aren't true, they can begin to shape our perceptions of ourselves and the decisions we make. Yet the only labels that really matter to this, the largest and most diverse generation yet, are the ones with which God originally designated us. What does he call our generation? Sons and daughters. We are called to change the world and make a huge impact for the kingdom, but we can't do that if we allow ourselves to believe the limiting labels we hear every day. Instead, Arden Bevere calls you to - know what it means to be a son or daughter of God - see how God uses the seemingly negative things in our lives for good - take control of our thoughts and words and replace them with God's thoughts and words - find freedom from addiction, fear, doubts, regrets, and more Your life is not an accident, a disappointment, or an inconvenience to God. It's time to redefine, embrace, and walk in your true identity as his beloved child who will do great things in his name. Let Arden Bevere, a positive voice in this generation, show you the way.

From the first dog to the first beefalo, from farming to CRISPR, the human history of remaking nature When the 2020 Nobel Prize was awarded to the inventors of CRISPR, the revolutionary gene-editing tool, it underlined our amazing and apparently novel powers to alter nature. But as biologist Beth Shapiro argues in Life as We Made It, this phenomenon isn’t new. Humans have been reshaping the world around us for ages, from early dogs to modern bacteria modified to pump out insulin. Indeed, she claims, reshaping nature—resetting the course of evolution, ours and others’—is the essence of what our species does. In exploring our evolutionary and cultural history, Shapiro finds a course for the future. If we have always been changing nature to help us survive and thrive, then we need to avoid naive arguments about how we might destroy it with our meddling, and instead ask how we can meddle better. Brilliant and insightful, Life as We Made It is an essential book for the decades to come.

RELIGION IS NOT THE ANSWERWhat does it mean to be a Christian? For most people, what comes to mind is a list of rules. Don't do this. Don't do that. Try harder. Do better. Many people feel hopeless and have given up on this kind of religion for good reason-it does not work. We do not feel close to God. We do not change like we believe we should. We seem powerless to impact culture.In redefined*, pastor Allen Holmes brings a powerful message to a weary world-this kind of religion is nothing like the blessed life Jesus has in mind for you. The good news is that a blessed and transformed life is closer than you imagined. What if God redefined your understanding of what it means to follow Him? What if you discovered that most of what you have believed is wrong?What if God is more interested in a relationship with you than your performance for Him? That kind of discovery would change everything! It would mean that the change, growth, and breakthrough you have been looking for is found in your weakness, not your strength. Jesus came to offer more than you can imagine-a blessing that reunites you with the Father, transforms your relationships, and empowers you to engage with culture. It's time to redefine* what it means to follow Jesus.

For the majority of people who face anxiety, the truth is simpler than we think: anxiety is an alarm. It’s a signal—nothing more and nothing less. Anxiety is simply our body’s way of telling us something is wrong. If we stop and listen, we can calm the alarm and move forward into healing and hope.

In our beauty-obsessed culture, women have become accustomed to using the standards set by society and the media as a barometer to measure their own worth. They perpetually wonder where they stand on the attractiveness continuum and question everything about their outward appearances, from their skin colour to their waistline, to their fashion sense. They keep asking themselves, "Am I good enough? Do I matter? Will others love and accept me for who I am?" Beauty Redefined explores this critical issue by looking at beauty from a cultural, biological and historical perspective and provides solutions on what we can do on a collective and individual level to redefine what it means to be a beautiful woman. By reading this book, you'll be convinced that your voice matters and you'll feel empowered to make your own unique mark in the world, no matter what your size, shape, colour or ethnic background is. You'll learn how to love yourself (warts and all!) and embrace every unique aspect of your being and use it to make the world a better place.
