Experience the fullness of God's promises through the power of minimalism 
 
Rooted in the teachings of Jesus, Uncluttered Faith argues that true spiritual fulfilment and abundant life are found not in accumulation but in simplicity and generosity. 
 
Weaving together personal stories, biblical teachings and practical advice, Becker shows how worldly treasures can hinder your relationship with God and your potential in His Kingdom. He shares his journey towards minimalism, a path he began nearly two decades ago that has since revealed numerous spiritual promises, emphasising that Jesus's teaching to give away possessions is not about deprivation, but rather the formula to experience purpose, passion, fulfilment and meaning, in this life. 
 
Uncluttered Faith is more than a guide for your personal growth; it casts a bold vision for the Church to collectively embrace minimalism and reach its full potential, ultimately leading to a life that is not only personally fulfilling but also impactful for eternity.

Own Less, Love More and Make an Impact in Your World

Martin Shaw

*INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* 
 
‘One of the master storytellers of our time’ – Dr Gabor Maté, author of The Myth of Normal 
 
From 'one of the greatest storytellers we have' (Robert Bly), an urgent invitation to allow the oldest stories – and the Greatest Story – to reshape our own. 
 
There’s an old Irish belief that if you aren’t wrapped in a cloak of story you will be unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being. 
 
In Liturgies of the Wild, acclaimed mythographer, storyteller and Christian thinker Martin Shaw argues that we live in a myth-impoverished age, cut off from the deep wells of story and meaning that once prepared us for life’s challenges. 
 
Drawing on the 'ancient technologies' of myths and initiatory rites, Shaw invites readers to rediscover the ancient stories that shape the human soul — and to encounter Christ as the ultimate, transforming story providing a road to wholeness, maturity and connection. Within these pages, Shaw:<ul><li>Teaches us to read a myth the way it wants to be read;</li><li>Provides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through life’s travails;</li><li>Shows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories.</li></ul>Most vividly, Shaw shares his own spiritual journey and how these ancient technologies led him – unexpectedly – to Christ, 'the True Myth,' by way of a thirty-year journey and a 101-night vigil in a Dartmoor forest. 
 
Blending nimble storytelling in the tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien with scholarly depth, Liturgies of the Wild s a thrilling counsel of resistance and delight in the face of many modern monsters, providing a transformative journey into story, spirit and self-discovery.

Myths that Make Us

Mark Batterson

‘How did you go bankrupt?’ Ernest Hemingway wrote in The Sun Also Rises. The answer? ‘Two ways: gradually then suddenly.’ In this illuminating book, Mark Batterson reveals that this principle applies to every area of life – especially success. 
 
Drawing from biblical wisdom, historical examples and his nearly 30 years of leadership experience, Batterson shows how success happens at the speed of a seed rather than the speed of light. He shows that what appears to be an ‘overnight’ success is actually the result of consistent choices and persistent faith. 
 
Using compelling stories, Gradually, Then Suddenly reveals: 
The Power of Persistence: Why staying in the game and trusting God often leads to breakthrough 
Cathedral Thinking: How taking the long view changes your daily decisions and life trajectory 
The Compound Effect: How small, faithful actions accumulate into life-changing results 
Convictions vs. Opinions: Why deep conviction in God matters more than changing opinions 
 
For anyone feeling discouraged by slow progress, Gradually, Then Suddenly offers the encouraging truth that God is working behind the scenes through your daily obedience to prepare you for moments of dramatic breakthrough.

The Lost Art of Little Decisions, Big Dreams and a Long Legacy

Thich Nhat Hanh

A short and accessible lesson on the key Buddhist concept of reincarnation from the Zen Master and bestselling author of The Miracle of Mindfulness 
 
In this book, with characteristic clarity and simplicity, Thich Nhat Hanh offers deep reflections on reincarnation or ‘continuation.’ Using intuitive examples – a teapot, parents and children, banyan trees and more – Thich Nhat Hanh breaks down what it means to go beyond the notions of birth and death. 
 
Influenced by what and how we consume, our actions of thought, speech and body are our true continuation. Moving into the future as the totality of our actions, we can see ourselves as more than this body and mind. 
 
When we free ourselves from a limited conception of who we are – when we let go of self-attachment – we make possible a true understanding of rebirth.

Reincarnation

Claude Atcho

Cultivate a faith shaped by Christ's presence in every season with this unique blend of devotional reflections, guided by seasoned pastor and award-winning author Claude Atcho. 
 
Many of us engage with the church calendar mainly through observing Advent or celebrating Easter, not fully understanding how its seasons year-round can offer us a deeper, more rooted experience. 
 
But what if its rhythms could shape your faith, not just on Sundays, but in your everyday life? 
 
In Rhythms of Faith, award-winning author and pastor Claude Atcho shows you that, more than just marking time, the church calendar invites us to walk with Jesus in a rhythm of remembrance, renewal and formation, helping us see the gospel not only as a message to be heard but as a story to be lived. 
 
Taking you through each season – Advent, Christmastide, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week, Easter and Ordinary Time – this book invites you to slow down, reflect and engage more intentionally with the life of Jesus, cultivating a faith that is formed by church time, anchored in Christ and powerfully transformative.

A Devotional Pilgrimage Through the Church Year

Rich Villodas

Enjoy daily readings to help you slow down, savour the Christmas season and deepen your relationship with Jesus with the beautiful 25-day Advent devotional from the bestselling author of The Deeply Formed Life. 
 
In the busyness of the holiday season, it’s easy to neglect what really matters: reflecting on the glory of Jesus. We want to pray more – to spend time with God – but the tyranny of the urgent leaves us distracted and depleted. 
 
In this inspiring daily devotional, pastor and bestselling author Rich Villodas guides you through 25 days of reflections, prayers and prompts to help you slow down, connect with God and rediscover peace this Advent season. 
 
Each day in this devotional features a short reflection from Rich, followed by a four-fold rhythm:<ul><li>Silence and prayer: Pause for a few moments. Take a breath. Rest.</li><li>Scripture: Read a short passage about the wonder of Jesus.</li><li>Sage wisdom: Read short, inspiring quotes from Christians through the ages.</li><li>Self-reflection: Bring your full self to God and enjoy his presence. Each day offers space for personal reflection, preparing your heart for Jesus’s arrival and culminating in a final devotional on Christmas Day.</li></ul>As you journey through Advent, reclaim joy and behold the wondrous love of God this Christmas with the Waiting for Jesus daily Advent devotional.

Jedidiah Jenkins

His mother walked across America in the seventies. Her past fascinates him. Her faith confounds him. They embark on a 5,000-mile journey to discover how families can stay together when beliefs are pulling them apart. 
 
When his mother, Barbara, turns seventy, Jedidiah Jenkins is reminded of a sobering truth: Our parents won&rsquo;t live forever. For years, he and Barbara have talked about taking a trip together, just the two of them. They disagree about politics, about God, about the project of society &ndash; disagreements that hurt. But they love thrift stores, they love eating at diners, they love true crime, and they love each other. Jedidiah wants to step into Barbara&rsquo;s world and get to know her in a way that occasional visits haven&rsquo;t allowed. 
 
They land on an idea: To retrace the thousands of miles Barbara trekked with Jedidiah&rsquo;s father, travel writer Peter Jenkins, as part of the Walk Across America book trilogy that became a sensation in the 1970s. Beginning in New Orleans, they set out for the Oregon coast, listening to podcasts about outlaws and cult leaders &ndash; the only media they can agree on &ndash; while reliving the journey that changed Barbara&rsquo;s life. Jedidiah discovers who Barbara was as a thirty-year old writer walking across America and who she is now, as a parent who loves her son yet holds on to a version of faith that sees his sexuality as a sin. 
 
Along the way, he peels back the layers of questions millions are asking today: How do we stay in relationships when it hurts? When do boundaries turn into separation? When do we stand up for ourselves, and when do we let it go? 
 
Tender, smart, and profound, Mother, Nature is a story of a remarkable mother-son bond and a moving meditation on the complexities of love.

Kate Bowler

***A SUNDAY TIMES AND INDEPENDENT BOOK OF THE YEAR AND INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*** 
 
The bestselling author of Everything Happens for a Reason (And Other Lies I've Loved) asks, how do you move forward with a life you didn't choose? 
 
Hailed by Glennon Doyle as 'the Christian Joan Didion', Kate Bowler used to accept the modern idea that life is an endless horizon of possibilities, a series of choices which if made correctly, would lead us to a place just out of our reach. A beach body by summer. A trip to Disneyland around the corner. A promotion on the horizon. But then at thirty-five she was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer, and now she has to ask one of the most fundamental questions of all: How do we create meaning in our lives when the life we hoped for is put on hold indefinitely? 
 
In No Cure for Being Human, Kate searches for a way forward as she mines the wisdom (and absurdity) of our modern 'best life now' advice industry, which offers us exhausting positivity, trying to convince us that we can out-eat, out-learn and out-perform our humanness. With dry wit and unflinching honesty she grapples with her cancer diagnosis, her ambition and her faith and searches for some kind of peace with her limitations in a culture that says that anything is possible. 
 
Frank and funny, dark and wise, Kate's irreverent, hard-won observations in No Cure For Being Human chart a bold path towards learning new ways to live.

This is a timeless work to reflect upon, to live by and to read for inspiration, knowledge and growth.

There Is Never Anything But The Present

& Other Inspiring Words of Wisdom

'The monk who taught the world mindfulness' Time 
 
In this masterful work, one of the most revered spiritual leaders in the world today shares his wisdom on how to be the change we want to see in the world. 
 
 In these troubling times we all yearn for a better world. But many of us feel powerless and uncertain what we can do. Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) is blazingly clear: there's one thing that we have the power to change-and which can make all the difference: our mind. How we see and think about things determines all the choices we make, the everyday actions we take (or avoid), how we relate to those we love (or oppose), and how we react in a crisis or when things don't go our way. 
 
Filled with powerful examples of engaged action he himself has undertaken, inspiring Buddhist parables, and accessible daily meditations, this powerful spiritual guide offers us a path forward, opening us to the possibilities of change and how we can contribute to the collective awakening and environmental revolution our fractured world so desperately needs.
