The Fruitful Life: Four Steps to Making the Right Decision Every Time

"What if you could move from anxious to assured with every decision you make? Dr. Anita Phillips, author of the New York Times bestselling The Garden Within, returns with a book that reveals how to grow a truly fruitful life--one right decision at a time. A good life is made up of good choices. But in our post-pandemic, hyperconnected, information-overloaded world, anxiety plagues every decision. And when it comes to high-stakes decisions--the big life choices that affect things like our careers, finances, or relationships--anxiety can lead to decision paralysis. In The Garden Within, Dr. Anita revealed how to flourish through embracing our emotions. Now she's back, extending the principles of seed-soil-plant-fruit that animate our inner gardens into a four-step decision-making process: knowing-feeling-thinking-doing. The Fruitful Life combines Dr. Anita's personal stories, professional research as a licensed therapist, spiritual insights, and the latest advances in biology to give you - a decision-making method that will profoundly impact the choices you make related to your relationships, purpose, and legacy; - practical ways to apply wisdom so you can let go of second-guessing and regret; - freedom to embrace the important role that emotion plays in every decision; and - confidence in knowing there is a time-tested process for making right decisions in every area of your life. Be empowered to step out of the anxiety you feel about present and future decisions, and embrace the peace of knowing how to make the right decision. Every time."

Do the True You: Stop Faking It for Others and Find Out Who God Says You Are

"The New York Times bestseller Do the New You has netted over 105,000 copies since its release in February 2024, and it has continued to sell steadily. While the book is easy to read and accessible to younger audiences, it's written with an adult reader in mind, and the stories and examples through the book talk about things like marriage, investing, and career-topics that don't necessarily resonate with younger readers. Elevation Church-both the physical locations and its online presence-skews young, and has a big following among junior high and high school students. To better reach this audience, Pastor Furtick is partnering with his three teenage children to create a teen edition of the book. The six mindsets that are the core of the book remain the same, but the content is being refreshed with new examples, language, and themes to align with the interest of teen readers. This new edition will be supported by Elevation Church and will broaden its reach and expand its readership."

The King Is Coming: Audio Bible Studies: It's Time to Prepare for the Return of Christ

"Those who walk with Jesus know he promised to one day return to this earth and establish his rule and reign over all things. He even instructed us to look for certain 'signs' that would indicate his return was imminent. In fact, the Bible contains more than 2,400 references foretelling this great event! While Jesus said, 'about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father' (Matthew 24:26), he was clear that his followers should be watching and waiting for his second coming. How is this done? By continually abiding in the presence of God. The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, this audio Bible study includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover important Bible-based topics. These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. While not required for the audio experience, these studies are designed to partner with the coordinating study guide, sold separately."

God Won't Leave You There: Joseph's Story

"God Won't Leave You There is a powerful reminder that God has a plan for your life, even when things are tough and seem hopeless. Drawing from the story of Joseph, rediscover how God can lift you from your pit to fulfill a glorious purpose, convert your struggles into strength, and lead you through perceived detours the destiny He planned all along. Could it be that God has an ultimate purpose for our trials and hardships? Could it be that we, like Joseph, are in the process of becoming a reflection of Jesus? God Won't Leave You There is an inspiring and moving guide for anyone navigating life's deepest struggles. Drawing profound lessons from the biblical story of Joseph, Anne Graham Lotz and Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright weave together Scripture, personal testimonies of hardship, and the unwavering hope found in God's promises. Anne's life was suddenly changed by the tragic death of her husband of forty-nine years, then followed three years later by a totally unexpected cancer diagnosis. Rachel-Ruth's life was forever changed by two back-to-back rare SCAD heart-attacks. These events occurred when both Anne and Rachel-Ruth were faithfully serving their heavenly Father and seeking to make Him known through lives of service to Him. Through it all, they learned these valuable lessons about God: - We can trust His placement. - We can trust His promises. - We can trust His path. - We can trust His plan. If you find yourself on a path of suffering that is made even more painful because you feel you've done nothing wrong and struggle with injustice, look in the shadows. Jesus has been there; He is there with you. He is not surprised or frightened as He grips your hand to lead you forward. No matter how desperate we find ourselves in this broken world, we can rest in the God who is trustworthy, knowing He won't leave us there!"

Discipology: The Art and Science of Making Disciples

"The modern church is facing a discipleship crisis. Research shows that only one-third of Christians in America are actively engaged in making disciples--leaving a massive gap in the mission Jesus gave us. Without a clear strategy, many churches struggle to move believers from passive attendance to active participation in the work of the Gospel. In Discipology, Jones challenges pastors, church leaders, and ministry teams to return to the original model of discipleship that Jesus demonstrated. Rather than relying on programs or events, Jesus focused on three essential elements that formed the foundation of lasting disciple-making: Time, Teaching, and Tactics. Through intentional time spent with a small group of followers, consistent teaching rooted in Scripture, and practical tactics for engaging in mission, Jesus set a clear and reproducible pattern for spiritual multiplication. Discipology unpacks each of these elements in detail, offering leaders a practical, biblical framework that takes the mystery out of discipleship and provides a clear path for mobilizing their people. This book is written specifically for pastors, church leaders, and ministry workers who long to see real spiritual growth in their communities. It's designed to help you build a disciple-making culture that empowers ordinary believers to live out their faith in everyday life. Alongside the book, an accompanying journal is available for your congregation, volunteers, small groups, and ministry teams--equipping them to walk through the principles of Discipology in a hands-on, personal way. The mission of the Church has always been disciple-making. It's time to return to the way of Jesus--and to lead the next generation into it."

Considering Sparrows: What Birds Teach Us About Who We Are, Where We're Going, and the Joy of Follo

"Birds don't just sing-they preach. Pastor and birder Kevin Burrell takes readers on a one-of-a-kind journey of theology, nature, and wonder that reveals God's truth through the lives of birds. The world is loud, life is fast, and wonder is slipping through the cracks. But Jesus gave a simple command-consider the birds. Pastor and birder Kevin Burrell takes that call literally, weaving together the beauty of creation, the depth of Scripture, and stunning illustrations from artist Aedan Peterson in a way that is insightful and delightfully unexpected. From the Arctic Tern's relentless migration to the Satin Bowerbird's obsessive collection of blue trinkets, Kevin shows us why these feathered creatures illustrate timeless truths found in Philippians. A Western Scrub Jay's funeral echoes Paul's perspective on life and death. An albatross's lifelong commitment mirrors the call to steadfast faith. Even the sparrow-once deemed a pest-reminds us why anxiety has no place in the kingdom of God. This book is more than ornithology. It's more than theology. It's an invitation to slow down, look up, and rediscover the Gospel written in the wings of creation. With wry humor, fascinating science, and rich biblical insight, In Consideration of Sparrows transforms both how we see birds-and how we see God."
