Coming Soon to the Resource Center


Here are just a few of the books coming soon to the church Resource Center (All copy from book cover wraps):


Running Scared: Fear, Worry, and the God of Rest - Edward T. Welch

“Worriers are false prophets - that insight alone was worth the price of the book, but far, far more awaits the wise reader who explores this brilliant book by Ed Welch. Ed tells our story of fear and worry with compelling honesty and depth. But even more, he invites us to see how our loyal God refuses to abandon us in our fear; instead, he allows our fear to reveal our fragility and desperate need for his presence. I was not only informed and moved by this book, I was invited to worship. This is not merely a book about fear; it is an invitation to a transformed view of God.” - Dan B. Allender, President and Professor of Counseling, Mars Hill Graduate School


Christian Confidence: An Introduction to Defending the Faith - Chris Sinkinson

Philosophy, archaeology and science are hot topics in Christian circles, perplexing many believers about how these issues relate to faith. Fortunately for us, Chris Sinkinson has investigated these areas and gathered historical Christian perspective. The result is this accessible introduction to apologetics, which enlightens minds and inspires confidence. Christian Confidence is a one-stop shop for anyone desiring to engage thoughtfully and persuasively in the difficult conversations surrounding faith in the twenty-first century.
