IVP Readers' Choice Award Stop outsourcing justice! Many local churches don't know what to do about justice. We tend to compartmentalize it as merely a strategy for outreach, and we often outsource it to parachurch justice ministries. While these organizations do good work, individual congregations are left disconnected from God's just purposes in the world. Adam Gustine calls the local church to be just and do justice. He provides a theological vision for our identity as a just people, where God's character and the pursuit of shalom infuses every aspect of our congregational DNA. As we grow in becoming just, the church becomes a prophetic alternative to the broken systems of the world and a parable of God's intentions for human flourishing and societal transformation. This renewed vision for the church leads us into cultivating a just life together-in community, discipleship, worship, and more-extending justice out into the world in concrete ways. Let's hold being and doing together, so we can become just, compassionate communities that restore shalom and bring hope to the world.

20 Fascinating short stories about characters who stepped out of their lifeboxes and imagined what they could achieve if they let themselves dream. Just a few of the stories are: A salesman has a plan to emancipate our minds from fear of failure A coach's wife shows her husband how to win the championship game A hair stylist warns how it's possible to lose our free will A teenage boy hopes to exchange his baseball for a Marriott Hotel A nun advises Pope Francis about a new way to help the poor A builder dreams of constructing a model home for Heaven An educator calls on Hollywood to revolutionize learning The purpose of these stories is to entertain, and also to show how people responded when they were asked what they would do if they could be God.

Playing God is your license to address the problems in your life, no matter how difficult they seem. From on high, you can dream with abandon to challenge the unreasonable and the impossible and become the person you want to be.

Ancient Water invites the reader to think about the Earth's growing water crisis and the corporate giants willing to do almost anything to control water in the name of higher profits. A scientist, his wife, her environmentalist ex-lover, and a corporate executive caught in the evil schemes of a global water cartel question whether they should take up arms in defense of the Earth or to leave the Earth to rid itself of the scourge of humanity.
Bill Bunch, Texas, Director, Save Our Springs Alliance
Ancient Water awakens us to the complacency of our every day lives and then prompts us to realize and face the dangers of what is being done to our water. It is our duty and responsibility to strive with all we have to protect our water. I thought about how our forefathers faced endless adversities, but they fought and survived. How can we do less?
Betty Smallie, Illinois, avid reader and active octogenarian
As Copernicus vanquished an earlier age of its dead-wrong astronomic illusions, deep ecologists are urgently trying to rid our present age of its greatest illusion: that human interests and survival can be understood or achieved separate from the rest of nature. As the deep ecologists say, and as is keenly suggested in Edwards' novel, Nature bats last. Indeed.
Patrick Gariety, Missouri, psychiatrist embracing deep ecology
