Beloved
by Francis Chan
Bestselling author and pastor Francis Chan explains how abiding in the love of God can free you from insecurity and lead you into a lifetime of joyful, worshipful obedience. Despite pastoring for decades and reaching thousands of people through his books and preaching, Chan wrestled with deep-seated insecurity. He understood God’s love conceptually but struggled to actually experience it. This resulted in a life that was far from the thrilling and peaceful life God intended. Chan prayed fervently for God to intervene and asked his friends and family to do the same. The result was a fresh revelation of the depth of God’s love and affection.

Crucible of Light
by Elizabeth Drayson
This is the epic history of Europe's rich Islamic heritage, exploring the endless complexities of this centuries-long relationship. Few readers are aware how much Europe owes to its Islamic heritage; this book aims to restore the central place of Muslim culture in the continent's history, while exploring the endless complexities that this vexed relationship creates. At a time when Islam is so narrowly identified with terrorism and migration in Europe, Crucible of Light is a welcome and necessary corrective. Drayson accomplishes this scale of history by focusing on individual stories and key places and, above all, by tracking themes.

Leo XIV
by Christopher R. Altieri
The first North American pope is a quiet man few had heard of, yet with subtle gestures, Pope Leo has shown that he is a bridge-builder, a man willing to unite the factions in a deeply divided Church. In this comprehensive book, Altieri joins Leo's biography with a critical examination of the state of the Church, and he explores Prevost's life and work, from his early years in Chicago to his ministry in Peru. He also provides insight into the politics of the 2025 conclave, alongside Pope Leo's choice of papal name and the major challenges and problems of the Church that he now must govern and potentially reshape.

Unleashed
by Tony Evans
Through this book, Tony Evans hopes to help Christians experience life to the fullest with an intentional alignment to God's rule and power. Evans is known for elevating God's kingdom agenda, and in Unleashed, he says that if readers want to unleash the power of God through every area of their lives, it is going to take an intentional alignment with God's rule. In each chapter, he uses examples of how to either overcome roadblocks to unleashing God's kingdom or how to implement spiritual truths, in an effort to tap into a greater level of spiritual power. He uses both biblical and contemporary examples to model this.
