Podcast host, spiritual director, and bestselling author of The Next Right Thing, Emily P. Freeman, offers guidance to help us recognize when it’s time to move on from situations that no longer serve us, allowing us to find new spaces where we can flourish and grow. Emily P. Freeman has built a loyal and growing audience who turn to her for practical advice and wisdom on the topic of discernment—figuring out the right direction for their lives and the steps necessary to get there. In her most recent book, The Next Right Thing, she showed readers how to clear the chaos that clouds decision-making, quiet the fear of choosing wrong, and find the courage to choose without regret or second guessing. Building on that message, How to Walk Into a Room (And How to Know When It’s Time to Walk Out) teaches us how to recognize and accept when it’s time to leave behind the situations in our lives that no longer serve us, and learn to find new ones that allow us to flourish. Emily reveals that the key to growth is listening to our inner truths. In doing so, we can discover the silent, nuanced, and hidden arrows that point toward our next right thing. Emily guides us to find those hidden arrows using poignant and thought-provoking questions such as: How do I know if it’s time to move on? What if leaving wasn’t my choice? What if I leave and everything falls apart? Does leaving make me a quitter? For anyone who feels too angry to stay and too scared to move on, How to Walk into A Room (And How to Know When to When It’s Time to Walk Out) invites us to embrace the healthy rhythm of letting go and moving toward a positive new horizon.

Many of us believe we are saved by grace--but for too many, that's the last time grace defines our life. Instead of walking in grace every day, we strive to be good, believing that the Christian life means hard work with an unshakable good mood. When we fail to measure up to our own impossible standards, we hide behind our good-girl masks, determined to keep our weakness a secret. In Grace for the Good Girl, Emily P. Freeman invites women to let go of the try-hard life and realize that in Christ we are free to receive from him rather than constantly try to achieve for him. With an open hand and a whimsical style, Emily encourages women to move from hiding behind masks and do-good performances to the freedom of a life hidden with Christ in God.
The majority of us would not necessarily define ourselves as
artists. We're parents, students, businesspeople, friends. We're
working hard, trying to make ends meet, and often longing for a
little more--more time, more love, more security, more of a sense
that there" is" more out there. The truth? We need not look around
so much. God is within us and he wants to shine through us in a
million little ways.
Nothing gets our attention like an unmade decision: Should I accept the new position? Which schooling choice is best for my kids? How can I support my aging parents? When we have a decision to make and the answer isn't clear, what we want more than anything is peace, clarity, and a nudge in the right direction. If you have trouble making decisions, because of either chronic hesitation you've always lived with or a more recent onset of decision fatigue, Emily P. Freeman offers a fresh way of practicing familiar but often forgotten advice: simply do the next right thing. With this simple, soulful practice, it is possible to clear the decision-making chaos, quiet the fear of choosing wrong, and find the courage to finally decide without regret or second-guessing. Whether you're in the midst of a major life transition or are weary of the low-grade anxiety that daily life can bring, Emily helps create space for your soul to breathe so you can live life with God at a gentle pace and discern your next right thing in love.
If the past few years have taught us anything, it's that the world is broken. The world we thought we knew vanished, and so many of us are now struggling to make sense of a world that's not what we thought it was. This book is about what happens when the fundamental picture we had relied on - our sense of how everything holds together - falls apart. For some, this moment comes when a global pandemic upends our security. For others, it's a partner leaving, or a terrible diagnosis, or the death of a loved one. Many of us have felt our worlds breaking when long-held beliefs about God or faith slipped through our hands. Whether the details are global or personal, the experience is the same: you discover that the framing reality you were living in has fractured. But here's the good news: The world has been breaking for as long as we can remember. We've been here before, which means we can turn to ancient, perennial wisdom to help us sort through these urgent problems. In When the World Breaks, Jason Adam Miller explores the possibilities for hope hidden in the paradoxes Jesus spoke when he taught the eight blessings - often called the Beatitudes - recorded in the beginning of Matthew chapter 5. These strange blessings name our experiences of suffering and are built on a particular kind of hope. This book is a meditation on those teachings as a transformative way forward when we suffer. Lyrically written, theologically rich, and supremely accessible, When the World Breaks reveals an unexpected way to look at these familiar verses, giving readers hope that God is with them in their suffering, and helping them become the kind of people who can put things back together.

The Enneagram has never been more popular.

With space to journal about the unique motivations, longings, and strengths and weaknesses of a Type 4-those who have a core desire to be unique, special, and their authentic self, Beth McCord shows how to transform self-limiting behaviors into life-enhancing personal empowerment. In addition to deeply informative content from Enneagram expert Beth McCord, the pages include interactive prompts and space provided for reflection and notes. Each book teaches about the strengths, challenges, and opportunities for that personality type in order to lead to a more meaningful life, lasting relationships, and a deeper understanding of God and yourself.
Suburban life-including tract homes, strip malls, commuter culture-shapes our desires. More than half of Americans live in the suburbs. Ashley Hales writes that for many Christians, however: "The suburbs are ignored ('Your place doesn't matter, we're all going to heaven anyway'), denigrated and demeaned ('You're selfish if you live in a suburb; you only care about your own safety and advancement'), or seen as a cop-out from a faithful Christian life ('If you really loved God, you'd move to Africa or work in an impoverished area'). In everything from books to Hollywood jokes, the suburbs aren't supposed to be good for our souls." What does it look like to live a full Christian life in the suburbs? Suburbs reflect our good, God-given desire for a place to call home. And suburbs also reflect our own brokenness. This book is an invitation to look deeply into your soul as a suburbanite and discover what it means to live holy there.
