"They say comedy equals tragedy plus time: This very funny account
of an often miserable childhood is proof." --People "What a strong,
funny, heartbreaking memoir, with a voice that is completely its
own (written by a woman who very much seems to be completely her
own, as well.) I loved it."--Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times
bestselling author of Big Magic and Eat, Pray, Love An uproarious,
moving memoir about a grandmother's ferocious love and redefining
what it means to be family "If you fight that motherf**ker and you
don't win, you're going to come home and fight me." Not the advice
you'd normally expect from your grandmother-but Danielle Henderson
would be the first to tell you her childhood was anything but
conventional. Abandoned at ten years old by a mother who chose her
drug-addicted, abusive boyfriend, Danielle was raised by
grandparents who thought their child-rearing days had ended in the
1960s. She grew up Black, weird, and overwhelmingly uncool in a
mostly white neighborhood in upstate New York, which created its
own identity crises. Under the eye-rolling, foul-mouthed, loving
tutelage of her uncompromising grandmother-and the horror movies
she obsessively watched-Danielle grew into a tall, awkward,
Sassy-loving teenager who wore black eyeliner as lipstick and was
struggling with the aftermath of her mother's choices. But she also
learned that she had the strength and smarts to save herself, her
grandmother gifting her a faith in her own capabilities that the
world would not have most Black girls possess. With humor, wit, and
deep insight, Danielle shares how she grew up and grew wise-and the
lessons she's carried from those days to these. In the process, she
upends our conventional understanding of family and redefines its
boundaries to include the millions of people who share her story.
Based on the popular blog of the same name, Feminist Ryan Gosling
pairs swoon-worthy photos of the sensitive, steamy actor with
feminist theories to the delight of women (and more than a few of
their mothers) everywhere. What started as a silly way for blogger
Danielle Henderson and her classmates to keep track of the feminist
theorists they were studying in class quickly turned into an
overnight sensation. Packed with 100+ photos and captions
throughout -- including the best "Hey girl" lines from the blog and
80 percent brand-new material -- this book is a must-have for
feminists and fans of the actor alike. What more could a girl want?
You know, besides gender equality and all that.

Be known as a person of relevant faith . . . escape the fog of
daily distractions . . . live a more intentional, integrated life
Plenty of books talk about living a deeper life. This one shows you
how--how to truly discover the answers to life's core questions and
live them out in your thoughts, words, and actions. An acclaimed
teacher on spiritual renewal, Daniel Henderson shares the
principles and practices that are vital to a transformed life. He
explains the longings that resonate in our souls--longings such as
wanting to know God more fully, to know ourselves better, to spend
our time on things that matter--and shows how to systematically
apply them to daily decisions and even long-term goals. As
countless believers have already discovered, this gospel-oriented,
Spirit-empowered approach will touch every part of your life and
change the trajectory of your journey. "As a pastor for over two
decades, Daniel Henderson was passionate about helping churches
experience authentic renewal. Today, as a pastor to pastors, Daniel
inspires leaders to renewed courage and impact. Now, in The Deeper
Life, he writes once again to help you with a unique and practical
plan for spiritual authenticity. In a world of constant distraction
and chronic discouragement, this book offers strategic focus and
hope for the daily journey."--Mark Batterson, New York Times
bestselling author of The Circle Maker "In the Old Testament, when
it came to spiritual renewal, God always had a man in mind to lead
the way. Having sat under the leadership of Daniel Henderson, it
may well be he is God's leader for our generation, helping to set
the stage for true spiritual renewal in the church today!"--Joni
Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center "I
am not much of a theologian, but after reading through the pages of
Daniel Henderson's book, I feel I am more of one than ever before.
It was that thought-provoking. . . . Read it!"--H.B. London,
president of H.B. London Ministries; pastor to pastors emeritus for
Focus on the Family "Whatever habits or failures or strongholds
keep you from realizing who you are in Christ, you can put them
behind you and experience freedom and joy. . . . If you're
searching for personal fulfillment or looking for guidance,
Henderson's practical and insightful book is just what you need."
--Cheryl Sacks, author of The Prayer Saturated Church; co-founder
of BridgeBuilders Int'l Leadership Network "Daniel Henderson has
not only been a mentor to me, I've watched him invest in thousands
of young leaders. His commitment to fostering spiritual renewal in
the church is fueling the faith of generations."--Johnnie Moore,
author of Dirty God; vice president of Liberty University "In the
cacophony and chaos of life, Daniel Henderson powerfully reminds us
of the deep, daily spiritual disciplines God uses to renew us. Like
a rudder to our souls, he directs us away from the mindless
activity to the meaningful choices that can mark us well for our
Savior."--Paul Nyquist, PhD, president of Moody Bible Institute
"Daniel Henderson knows the deeper Christian life, because he has
lived it for over twenty-five years. All who read this book have a
great mentor and will grow as they respond to his admonitions."
--Elmer Towns, co-founder of Liberty University "Daniel's thirst
for authentic intimacy with Christ is contagious. The Deeper Life
couldn't be more timely for a generation desperately seeking
God."--Tim Clinton, president of the American Association of
Christian Counselors
