The Let My People Go handbook is a practical guide to equip churches to love their most vulnerable neighbors.

Many (younger) evangelicals today are actively cultivating an appreciation for aspects of culture previously stigmatized within the church.

It is believed that this is something that the general population may be aware of, but needs to consider just how our communities can deal with these issues. It is hoped that this book, with its stories, will make everyone more aware of the needs of these that we see daily on our streets.

One of Many is based on a true story. This book will not only help readers look at illegal immigration from a different perspective, but it will also help readers understand what really happens on our Southern United States border. You will learn this not from someone who thinks they know, but from someone who was there and experienced it firsthand. Most media only tell you partial stories. They will either change or add to the story for their own...

In his second encyclical, Praise Be to You, Pope Francis addresses "every person living on this planet," inviting us to dialogue together about the urgent environmental challenges facing the earth-our common home-and how we can work together protect its fragile resources. He challenges us to think of ecology not merely in terms of the environment, but in light of our fundamental relationships: with God, with ourselves, with others, and with the rest...
