#1:
Analog Church: Why We Need Real People, Places, and Things in the Digital Age
Jay Kim
*** $4.99 ***
“Just as loving parents thoughtfully research the usage of technology and the impact it has on their children, church leaders must do the same for those Jesus entrusts us with. Too often we jump on the latest trends and whatever seems most attractive on the surface, without much thoughtful discernment. Analog Church is a wake-up call and asks us some tough, much-needed questions―whether our rush into the use of whatever new technology is available is helping or hurting people’s understanding of God, worship, church, and themselves. In a digitally saturated world, where new generations are bombarded and immersed in the digital, we need to press into analog all the more. Analog Church shows us how.”
— Dan Kimball, director of the ReGeneration Project, author of They Like Jesus but Not the Church
#2:
The Economy of Cities
Jane Jacobs
*** $4.99 ***
“This book is radiant with ideas about what makes cities rich or poor, how cities grow, and how city growth affects national economies.”
— The New Yorker

#3:
Remote Control: A Novel
Nnedi Okorafor
*** $2.99 ***
“Episodic and organic, the story winds along with a limber rhythm that allows every rich detail of Sankofa’s surreal world to surface. It’s a cumulative narrative, a slow burn that builds in emotional urgency even as the scope of Okorafor’s worldbuilding bursts into something breathtakingly vast.” ―NPR
#4:
We are the Weather: Saving the Planet Begins at Breakfast
Jonathan Safran Foer
*** $2.99 ***
“Eye-opening . . . In this follow-up to his influential Eating Animals, [Foer] brings both personality and passion to an issue that no one has figured out how to address in a way that inspires an adequate response.” ―Mark Bittman, The New York Times Book Review
#5:
As I Recall: Disocvering the Place of Memories in our Spiritual Life
Casey Tygrett
*** $4.99 ***
“Through personal story, neurological insights, and spiritual practices, Tygrett pastors his readers, inviting us to bring our whole selves―our past, present, and future selves, our physical, emotional, spiritual selves―into a life formed by the God who was, who is, and who is to come.”
— Mandy Smith, pastor, author of The Vulnerable Pastor
