I'm so excited to be able to help launch Erica Vetsch's new series!   Click here to claim your copy of The Debutante's Code ! Sign-ups are now open for  The Debutante's Code  by Erica Vetsch!  This is the first release in the Thorndike & Swann Regency Mysteries series from Kregel.    The tour dates will be November 16-December 10. Because I'm sending this announcement out earlier than usual, I won't be sending out emails about who made the tour around September 30. I will try to send out the email sooner, if I can.  I do expect a full tour plus some, so there's a chance I may not be able to get everyone on the tour. Two of the screeners that I use that might keep you off the list are: 1) missing links from previous tours and 2) a lack of regular posts (if you haven't posted regularly in months, for example). So, just make sure you're current with turning in your links and in posting on your blog.  When I send out all the details ahead of the tour

Or just wing it? Scott Thomas, former President of Acts 29, church planter, and pastor has a different approach. He unpacks how leaning on Jesus empowers not just your teaching, but also grows the humility and biblical wisdom you need to lead.   Through many years of ministry experience, Thomas has seen the importance of the “soft skills” of leadership—empathy, kindness, and listening—and how not developing those skills negatively impacts churches. Yet simply knowing the need for what the world calls “emotional intelligence,” doesn’t guarantee growth in these areas. But understanding and applying the gospel will bring transformation.   Thomas gives practical, specific help in navigating spiritual and emotional challenges that leaders commonly encounter and unpacks how a gospel-shaped response b

Read more about the book and author, even an excerpt from the book, then enter to win a copy of your own below! About the book: Are you settling for half the story? Highlighting connections that have been hidden from non-Jewish eyes, Rabbi Jason Sobel will connect the dots between the Old and New Testament, helping you see the Bible with clarity as God intended . Most people—even people of faith—do not understand how the Bible fits together. Too many Christians accept half an inheritance, content to embrace merely the New Testament, while Jewish people may often experience the same by embracing only the Old Testament. But God has an intricate plan and purpose for both the Old and the New. In  Mysteries of the Messiah , Rabbi Jason Sobel reveals the many connections in Scripture hidden in plain sight. Kn
