This is the question Gary Thomas asks in Sacred Marriage as he presents this covenant as a relationship that draws us closer to Christ. Using Scripture and stories mined from modern marriages as a guide, Thomas encourages couples to view marriage as a spiritual discipline designed to help both husbands and wives know God better. With practical tips and biblically-based solutions, Thomas explains how marriage can become a transformative resource for one’s spiritual life and how holy marriages result in stronger relationships with the Father. >> For the Love finds beloved writer Jen Hatmaker frustrated with life’s seemingly biggest challenge: people. Throughout her latest book, she maintains that the majority of our heartbreak, disagreements, struggles and convictions come from living life with other people— be it family, friends, spouses, children, co-workers or even acquaintances. In fact, this wife and mom tackles Pinterest-worthy comparison, unhealthy competition and judgmental attitudes head on with candor and wit. Hatmaker concedes that if we can learn to extend the kind of grace that Jesus offers, we’ll be better able to love ourselves and those around us. >> New York Times bestselling author Ruth Soukup serves up a generous helping of biblical wisdom in Unstuffed as she helps readers clean out their closets and their souls. With practical tips about decluttering our homes to make room for the things that matter, Soukup also doles out advice about decluttering our calendars, our minds, our relationships and our hearts. Along the way, she encourages readers to not allow stuff to define or limit their days or their relationships with the people they love. In Unstuffed, she provides easy-to-implement solutions for organizing the chaos of our schedules and clearing out anything that isn’t life-giving. >> Rebekah Lyons knows all too well the ridiculous expectations women around the world face daily; and in her book, Freefall to Fly, she shares the secret to breaking free and fully embracing the life God intended for women of all ages. This memoir follows Lyons’ personal journey from Atlanta to New York where she found herself blindsided by debilitating depression and anxiety. Overwhelmed by pressure to be domestically efficient, professionally astute and physically attractive all the time, she finally realized that real freedom can only be achieved through facing our greatest fears and fully surrendering to God’s call on our lives. >> JRA wishes to congratulate all of our artists nominated for a K-LOVE Fan Award in 2016 ARTIST OF THE YEAR CASTING CROWNS for KING & COUNTRY LAUREN DAIGLE MALE ARTIST OF THE YEAR MATTHEW WEST FEMALE ARTIST OF THE YEAR BLANCA FRANCESCA BATTISTELLI LAUREN DAIGLE PLUMB BEST LIVE SHOW for KING & COUNTRY BREAKOUT SINGLE FINDING FAVOUR (“Cast My Cares”) JORDAN FELIZ (“The River”) GROUP/DUO OF THE YEAR CASTING CROWNS for KING & COUNTRY WORSHIP SONG OF THE YEAR FRANCESCA BATTISTELLI (“Holy Spirit”) BEST LYRICS MATT MAHER (“Deliverer”) MATTHEW WEST (“Grace Wins”) PLUMB (“Exhale”) SONG OF THE YEAR CASTING CROWNS (“Just Be Held”) for KING & COUNTRY (“Shoulders”) LAUREN DAIGLE (“First”) Thank you K-LOVE listeners for your continued support of the JRA family of artists! | book impact Nominees |
