    Choosing Real: An Invitation to Celebrate When Life Doesn't Go as Planned Are you ready to release your control of needing to be everything for everyone?

    In Choosing REAL, author Bekah Pogue walks with us into life’s unplanned circumstances–specifically frantic schedules, pain, transition, feelings of unworthiness, loneliness, and tension–and reminds us it is in these very moments where God invites us to notice, respond, and even celebrate an authentic relationship with Him through every little detail despite our own efforts or work. The result? A connection between real life and faith so that they are one and the same.

    When we enjoy God’s company first–the heavenly Creator will transform our minds to view our schedules, work, relationships, parenting, and responsibilities as opportunities to dance in life’s storms and honor how beautiful simple can be. Better than our ideal party, it is He who is inviting us, setting the table, breathing peace and freedom into details we aren’t in control of. When we recognize how He surprises us by using our greatest pains and detours to draw us to a beautiful dependence on Him–freedom and peace replace control and worry.

    The Forgotten Blessing: Ancient Words That Heal Generational Wounds Christians are growing more and more aware of the power of generational hurts and their effects on families. While some teaching helps identify past causes of present-day pain, Aaron Früh digs deep into the book of Genesis to reveal a powerful avenue of healing often forgotten in the church today: the spoken blessing.

    Früh shows how generational trauma usually has its basis in the spoken word–rejection, verbal abuse, or angry outbursts. Reversal and healing come when verbal iniquity is replaced with verbal blessing. While explaining how curses operate and how today’s culture feeds on them, Früh shows through an ancient blessing in Scripture exactly how, when, and whom to bless in order to break free forever.
