Before clarity, there was confusion. The Book of Joel is short, but it carries a powerful message that many people read without fully understanding. Its vivid imagery, symbolic language, and references to judgment and restoration can feel overwhelming, especially when read in 17th-century wording. From the devastating locust plague to the prophetic warning of the Day of the Lord, Joel is not just a historical account—it is a call to awareness, reflection, and understanding. But most people never get that far. The language gets in the way. The Book of Joel Decoded removes that barrier.

The King James Bible is powerful — but its ancient language can feel like a wall between you and the meaning. It doesn't have to be. The Book of Ruth is one of the most beloved stories in all of scripture. It is a story of extraordinary loyalty, quiet faith, and unexpected redemption. But navigating its 17th-century English can make it easy to miss the depth of what is actually being said. The Book of Ruth Decoded removes that barrier, presenting every verse alongside a clear, modern English translation so you can listen to it it, understand it, and decide what it means to you.

Humankind has always wrestled with the existence of suffering. For two centuries, many American ministers, physicians, and scientists believed that an omnipotent and omniscient God created the world such that people might relieve suffering through ingenuity and learning. Others responded to the new worldview introduced by the scientific revolution as a threat to the divine order. In Imagining Progress, Kristin Johnson traces the history of Americans' evolving relationship with science and religion at "one of its most dramatic places"—the bedsides of dying children.

Developing the Puritans' understanding of religious freedom, Jesse Johnson shows how Christ's followers have reasoned through this tension in past centuries, and he identifies biblical principles for navigating government restrictions in the future. Johnson reminds his listeners that God made government with a purpose, and that purpose makes the world livable for believers. So sit back, and let Johnson take you on a tour of what the Bible teaches about government, and why we should be more like Daniel, by recognizing the limits on our obedience to earthly authorities.

Public schools are indoctrinating a generation of children to see themselves as either victims of systemic racial oppression or members of a wicked oppressor class. Leonydus Johnson, a black writer and podcaster, exposes the poisonous ideology embedded in "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion" programs. We must teach our children the truth that their identity comes not from their race but from Christ.

In this engaging and accessible introduction, Keith Johnson takes a fresh look at theology. He presents the discipline of theology as one of the ways we participate in the life of the triune God. Without suggesting it should be removed from the academy, Johnson argues that theology has to be integrally connected to the traditions and practices of the church. If academic theology is to be genuinely theological, then it has to be carried out in obedience to Jesus Christ and in service to the church.

The American political scene today is poisonously divided, and the vast majority of white evangelicals plays a strikingly unified, powerful role in the disunion. These evangelicals raise a starkly consequential question for electoral politics: Why do they claim morality while supporting politicians who act immorally by most Christian measures? In this clear-eyed, hard-hitting chronicle of American religion and politics, Anthea Butler answers that racism is at the core of conservative evangelical activism and power. 

Religion is held to be the source of our values and morality; the impetus behind all things good. Yet it sustains an unparalleled acquaintance with death, destruction, and terrorism. And generation after generation, we fail to acknowledge, much less explore, this glaring incongruity. Historians have written endlessly on the many origins of religion, and critics have written countless volumes on the immeasurable atrocities committed in its name. But here we are in the 21st century, and we still don’t have a coherent understanding of why we practice this most enigmatic of human behaviors
