Irresistible Faith
Summary
"I love everything that Scott Sauls writes." (Christine Caine) What if Christians became the best advertisement for Jesus? Jesus said his followers would be a light to the world and a city on a hill - a warmly inviting, neighbor-loving, grace-and-truth filled destination for all. He envisioned his followers as life-giving neighbors, bosses, employees, and friends, the kind of people who return even insults with kindness and persecution with prayers. Rooted in biblical convictions, they would extend love, empathy, and care to one another as well as to those who don't share their beliefs. Over time their movement would become irresistible to every nation, tribe, and tongue. Irresistible Faith is a blueprint for pursuing this vision in our current moment, of redeemed individuals and a renewed community working for a restored world. This is a way of being that gives a tired, cynical world good reason to pause and reconsider Christianity - and to start wishing it was true. "I miss the kind of church Scott describes in this book, and I don’t think I am alone." (Donald Miller, author of Blue Like Jazz and Building a StoryBrand) "An important call to resist the urge to lobby and position ourselves, but rather to be driven by gospel-powered love." (Raechel Myers, founder and CEO of She Reads Truth) "An antidote to much that is wrong with our western, American version of Christianity. " (Gabe and Rebekah Lyons, authors and founders of Q Ideas)

A Gentle Answer
Summary
A remarkable vision for how Christians can live with countercultural gentleness in a perpetually angry, attacking, outraged time. “Wow! What a great book!" (Max Lucado) In a defensive and divided era, how can followers of Jesus reveal a better way of living, one that loves others as God loves us? How can Christians be the kind of people who are known, as Proverbs puts it, to "turn away wrath"? Scott Sauls' compelling new audiobook points the way by helping listeners: Grow in affection for Christ, who answers our hostility with gentleness; Nurture a renewed, softened heart in light of Christ's gentleness toward us; And forsake us-against-them mentalities, putting down our swords, and permeating a hostile world with gentleness. For those who long for a more civil way of being, A Gentle Answer provides an inspiring and transformative path for countercultural gentleness in our perpetually angry, attacking, outraged time. Reflection questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download. “I can’t think of a more needed and timely book.” (Dr. Paul David Tripp, best-selling author of New Morning Mercies) “Reminds us of the essential and needed attribute of gentleness in a world steeped in outrage and cancel culture.” (Dr. Bryan Loritts, author of The Dad Difference) “An urgent book for our fractured times.” (Jen Pollock Michel, award-winning author of Surprised by Paradox) PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Jesus Outside the Lines
Summary
Whether the issue of the day on Twitter, Facebook, or cable news is our sexuality, political divides, or the perceived conflict between faith and science, today's media pushes each one of us into a frustrating clash between two opposing sides. Polarizing, us-against-them discussions divide us and distract us from thinking clearly and communicating lovingly with others. Scott Sauls, like many of us, is weary of the bickering and is seeking a way of truth and beauty through the conflicts. Jesus Outside the Lines presents Jesus as this way. Sauls shows us how the words and actions of Jesus reveal a response that does not perpetuate the destructive fray. Jesus offers us a way forward - away from harshness, caricatures, and stereotypes.

Befriend
Summary
Is real friendship too risky? We live in a world where real friendship is hard to find. Suspicious of others and insecure about ourselves, we retreat into the safety of our small, self-made digital worlds. Tragically, even the church can become a place that reinforces this isolation. Jesus models a much richer vision of friendship. Scott Sauls, pastor and teacher, invites you to see the breadth of Christ's love in this audiobook, Befriend. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.
