The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they might have life, and have it to the full. (John 10:10, NIV). Do you often feel like you’re barely keeping your head above water? Do you feel like each day passes by in a blur of overwhelm, worry and chaos, and you’re left feeling utterly depleted? Perhaps you feel like you don’t quite measure up, or the dreams in your heart are taking a lot longer to come to fruition than you thought they would. Do you feel like you’re on a treadmill of monotony and life isn’t at all how you thought it would be? In this 30-day devotional, Kristen Fraser draws on Biblical truths and personal experiences to share thoughtful and practical insights about what it means to live an abundant life. Thrive, Don’t Just Survive is written from the heart (and the trenches of life!) and shares scripture, thoughts and prayers to encourage you to step wholeheartedly into who God created you to be. Thrive, don’t just survive!

What if there was a way to peel back the broken and tattered pieces of ourselves, and uncover a new life of freedom, adventure, and transformation? For many of us, our misconceptions about the nature and character of the triune God have kept us from the freedom and joy found in our true identity in Christ. Damaging cycles of shame and the endless effort to look the part keep us trapped in drama and fear. Unable to grasp the paradox of a God who is both Lion and Lamb, we end up feeling alone, stuck on the banks of the river while a life of passion and adventure beckons. Using stories of transformation, Paradox Lost presents a framework for understanding our patterns of “stuckness” and provides specific tools for getting off the riverbanks and into the current. With life-giving insight into God’s nature, readers will find the courage to uncover their own wounded places, as well as invite others to experience the wholeness of abundant life in Christ.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

How does one handle hardship? What does it look like to persevere through a painful trial, especially if that trial never leaves? And how can a man who is riddled with anxiety and depression endure the suffering of watching his young daughter battle a terminal childhood cancer and unable to do anything about it?This book tackles several issues including anxiety and depression, overcoming bitterness, learning how to persevere, and how to deal with fear, shame, and guilt. The story includes Kristina, the 8-year-old daughter of Chad and Melissa Barrett, who was diagnosed with Clear Cell Sarcoma and battled it for four years. But this book isn't really about Kristina.This story also includes Chad, who had struggled with anxiety and depression for several years when he and his wife, Melissa, got the dreadful phone call that their daughter has cancer. But this isn't really about Chad, either.This true story is about the God-man, Jesus, who showed up in the midst of this storm. Instead of delivering the main characters from their plight, Jesus did something counterintuitive to us, humans. He led them deeper into the storm and showed His power. Written mostly in story form, his book is proof that the grace of Jesus is sufficient even for a parent's worst nightmare. It's sufficient to take a human, with all his flaws of shame, fear, and guilt, riddled with anxiety and depression, and then the grief from the death of his child, and bring him past the point of surviving into the realm of thriving.Only God can do that. He can do that for you, too, and this book will show you how.

The triune God of justice has a mission in the world, which we are called to participate and partner in. The awesome nature of that mission and vision inspires and animates this volume, Now to God Who Is Able. An international array of Christian pastors, scholar activists, parachurch ministry leaders, and community organizers reflect critically on the theological, biblical, contextual, and practical dimensions of what it means to bear witness of the gospel orientated and anchored in God’s justice. Using a trinitarian framework within the prophetic call to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God, this book speaks to the modern challenges and opportunities of the pastoral vocation, ecclesiology, hermeneutics, homiletics, ecumenism, theological education, and missional theology. Each essay and this book honor the more than four decades of ministry of Mark Labberton, who retired as president of Fuller Theological Seminary in 2023.
