[German] - Genug von mir: Freude finden im Zeitalter des Selbst

"Viele Frauen stehen heute unter Druck: Sie müssen sich ständig verbessern und haben nie das Gefühl, »genug« zu sein. Häufig leben sie ihren Alltag deshalb entmutigt und enttäuscht. Freude kommt aber nicht durch eine neue Strategie der Selbstverbesserung, sondern durch die Verwurzelung unserer Identität in dem, was Gott über uns sagt und für uns getan hat. Dieses Buch ruft Frauen dazu auf, von sich selbst wegzusehen, um ein Leben in Fülle zu finden, das Gott ihnen bietet. Es stellt die oft betonte Selbstverbesserung und Selbstermächtigung dem gegenüber, was die Bibel über ein Leben sagt, das im Evangelium verwurzelt und gefestigt ist."

Welcome: Loving Your Church by Making Space for Everyone

"As we have been welcomed by Jesus, Christians are called to welcome others. But what does this look like in practice? Walking into church can be intimidating, whether for the first time or after a period of absence, whether you are a non-believer or a believer. Wouldn't it be wonderful if your church was a place where everyone received a warm welcome? A place where newcomers can quickly feel at home and where non-believers receive the welcome of God's people alongside the welcome of Jesus? This warm, practical book by Jen Oshman explores what the Bible says to help readers discover how to make space for others, however different they are to them, in their church and in their lives. She also gives practical advice, drawing on good practice from churches around the world in a range of situations. In a world of division, individualism, and isolation, readers will see that their church can witness to Christ by being a place of welcome, community, and connection. Chapters include how Jesus welcomes us, the impact of welcoming in the early church, the effect of being siblings in Christ, how to welcome beyond Sunday, helpful systems and strategies, how our joy in Christ causes us to be outward-looking, and mirroring the glorious vision set out in Revelation. Whether you're a pastor looking to encourage your congregation to welcome others or a church member wanting to see unbelievers come to faith and help everyone feel part of the family, this book is for you."

Cultural Counterfeits: Confronting 5 Empty Promises of Our Age and How We Were Made for So Much More

"'There really is more to this life, but it can't be found in our own conjuring, our own identity creation and curation.' —Jen Oshman In our search for meaning and purpose, we can be influenced by idols like outward beauty and ability, sex, abortion, and gender fluidity. Even good things like marriage and motherhood can become symbols of idolatry. We may sense that these counterfeits are hollow and leave us feeling unsettled, but where should we turn instead? Jen Oshman equips us to reject the empty, cultural promises of our age and recognize our unshakable and eternal identities in Jesus. Addressing timely topics such as the sexual revolution, LGBTQIA+, social media, and feminism, Oshman provides compelling cultural analysis and engaging discussion questions to help us uncover God's good design and purpose for our lives. Good news awaits—we really were made for so much more."

Enough about Me: Find Lasting Joy in the Age of Self

"'Lord knows that we have more than enough books about ourselves and never enough books about the God that created us. It isn't until we see him that we can then make sense of ourselves. I believe Jen Oshman's book accomplishes that by widening our vision and helping us fall in love with seeing God again.' —Jackie Hill Perry, poet; author; hip-hop artist Women today feel a constant pressure to improve themselves and just never feel like they're 'enough.' All too often, they live their daily lives disheartened, disillusioned, and disappointed. That's because joy doesn't come from a new self-improvement strategy; it comes from rooting their identity in who God says they are and what he has done on their behalf. This book calls women to look away from themselves in order to find the abundant life God offers them—contrasting the cultural emphasis on personal improvement and empowerment with what the Scriptures say about a life rooted, built up, and established in the gospel."
