The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are
Brené Brown
*** $1.99 ***
Brené writes, “This book is an invitation to join a wholehearted revolution. A small, quiet, grassroots movement that starts with each of us saying, ‘My story matters because I matter.’ Revolution might sound a little dramatic, but in this world, choosing authenticity and worthiness is an absolute act of resistance.”

Leadership, God’s Agency, and Disruptions: Confronting Modernity’s Wager
Mark Lau Branson and Alan Roxburgh
*** $2.99 ***
“Leadership, God’s Agency, and Disruptions is a wonderfully brilliant book by two world class thinkers on leadership. Read it and allow the leadership you have known to be unraveled. Know that, by the time you’re finished reading, you’ll be re-constructed as a Christian leader. Instead of techniques, you’ll be given a new way of being that is found in the very center of God’s agency, not your own.” —David Fitch
