Trouble falls on us all, and sometimes at the most inopportune times. It happens not just to our loved ones, but to strangers we may never see again, yet who God wants us to lift up nevertheless: waiters, cab drivers, a fellow student at a coffeehouse, the widower sitting next to us in the waiting room, a stressed mom with kids in the checkout line, someone at the gym. It's not always easy to know what to say in those "divine encounters," but Prayers to Share: 100 Pass-Along Notes for Peace provides something that anyone can do.

In a fast-paced world full of distractions, spiritual practice can help us become more centered-more in touch with ourselves and others, more in touch with the world around us, more in touch with God. Sacred Pauses is an introduction to this more centered way of life. The author, a pastor in British Columbia, begins with her own longing for personal renewal. What would it take to feel renewed every day? Instead of waiting for a vacation to smooth out the tensions of life, instead of waiting until the end of the week to shed our weariness, what if we could take time out every day? Live a renewed life every day? Be refreshed by God every day? Sacred Pauses offers simple ways for readers to do just that. Each chapter explores a different spiritual practice-from the classic disciplines of Scripture reading and prayer to other creative approaches such as paying attention, making music, and having fun. With plenty of stories from real life and ideas to try, this book is personal and practical. Its flexible format is appropriate for personal use or in a group, every day or any time.

On our best days, we feel God's love in a huge way. We shine brighter, laugh harder, live without worry or fear of the future--and we passionately love others without judgment. Because when God's love floods our lives, we have no choice but to let it radiate throughout the day. But how about on the hard days, when we aren't feeling it? How are we supposed to reflect God's heart when we feel stuck in the seemingly never-ending dullness of the day-to-day? In this life-changing book, Cleere Cherry Reaves reveals how to stay in God's presence and radiate joy through every day and every circumstance. Offering fresh perspective on topics such as childlike faith, vulnerability, the refining process, laying down worries and fears, and the value of hospitality, Radiate shares the many ways that God's Word unlocks the door to a life filled with peace, trust, love, and light. With its uplifting message, the downcast and the discouraged can live lighter in the present, fully trusting the One they belong to as His joy and love shine through them once more.

The past and future of Jewish-Christian dialogue The history of the relationship between Judaism and Christianity is storied and tragic. However, recent decades show promise as both parties reflect on their self-definitions and mutual contingency and consider possible ways forward. In Healing the Schism, Jennifer M. Rosner maps the new Jewish-Christian encounter from its origins in the early twentieth-century pioneers to its current representatives. Rosner first traces the thought of Karl Barth and Frank Rosenzweig and brings them into conversation. Rosner then outlines the reassessments and developments of post-Holocaust theological architects that moved the dialogue forward and set the stage for today. She considers the recent work of Messianic Jewish theologian Mark S. Kinzer and concludes by envisioning future possibilities. With clarity and rigor, Rosner offers a robust perspective of Judaism and Christianity that is post-supersessionist and theologically orthodox. Healing the Schism is essential reading for understanding the perils and promise of Messianic Jewish identity and Jewish-Christian theological conversation.

The Goyer home--with two parents, eight kids, and one eighty-eight-year-old grandmother with dementia--is never without noise, mess, activity, and, often, complaining. And it's not just the kids grumbling. After adding seven children in less than six years through adoption, the Goyer family decided to move out of survival mode and tackle the impossible: a grumble-free year. The Grumble-Free Year will give you the tools you need to: Go with the flow when life gets in the way of your plans Discover what really matters to you and your family Thrive, not just survive, as a family In The Grumble-Free Year, the Goyers invite you into their journey as they go complaint-free and discover what it looks like to develop hearts of gratitude. They share their plans, successes, failures, and all the lessons they learn along the way, offering real-life action steps based in scripture so that you can also uncover a heart that is truly thankful. Praise for The Grumble-Free Year: "The Grumble-Free Year is about becoming more than just grateful. It's about learning how to see beyond the words to uncover what is really happening in the heart of our children and, equally important, ourselves. With humility and authenticity, Tricia Goyer invites us into her home to learn how to live grumble-free and paints a beautiful picture of the transformation process that evolves through a steadfast commitment, even with a few detours along the way." --Elisa Pulliam, life coach and founder of MoretoBe.com "When Tricia talks, I listen. That's because whatever she writes about, she has intimately lived. But instead of presenting as a perfect expert, Tricia pulls up a chair beside you as another woman facing the same battles. The Grumble-Free Year is a guide that gives you practical ways to develop a practice of gratitude and to foster respect in relationships. You will feel understood, challenged, and empowered to live a grumble-free lifestyle." --Sarah Bragg, host of the podcasts Surviving Sarah and Raising Boys & Girls
