the Audiobook for only $7.49!!!
The Jesus Way — part of Eugene Peterson’s meaty “conversations” on spiritual theology.
A way of sacrifice. A way of failure. A way on the margins. A way of holiness. In The Jesus Way Eugene Peterson shows how the ways of those who came before Christ — Abraham, Moses, David, Elijah, and Isaiah — revealed and prepared the “way of the Lord” that became incarnate and complete in Jesus. Further, Peterson calls into question common “ways” followed by the contemporary American church, showing in stark relief how what we have chosen to focus on — consumerism, celebrity, charisma, and so forth — obliterates what is unique in the Jesus way.

Good Works: Hospitality and Faithful Discipleship
Christine Pohl and Keith Wasserman
*** $2.99 ***
“Good Works offers a profound paradigm for ministry whereby work with those at the margins is only ‘good’ to the extent that our own character and relationships with God and others are good. Turning the usual metrics upside down with refreshing power, Good Works illuminates the profound difference between ministry and social service agency.” — Chris Rice, coauthor with Emmanuel Katongole, of Reconciling All Things: A Christian Vision for Justice, Peace and Healing
#3:
The Vulnerable Pastor: How Human Limitations Empower our Ministry
Mandy Smith
*** $2.99 ***
“Vulnerability in ministry is a too often ignored topic. It doesn’t need to be. Smith helps readers see that talking about our limitations isn’t just a good idea, it’s absolutely essential for healthy kingdom leaders, and what people in the pew so desperately long to see.” – J.R. Briggs, Leadership Journal, Winter 2016
