A Quest for More: Living for Something Bigger Than You (Paul David Tripp)
Paul Tripp demonstrates, through sound biblical principles, how men and women are made by God for more than a merely physical realm. We are meant to be “glory junkies” – with visionary lives governed by God’s grand purposes rather than existing only within our narrow self-interested confines.
He writes, “It is a fundamental denial of your humanity to narrow the size of your life to the size of your own existence, because you were created to be an above and more being. You were made to be transcendent.”
Tripp then shows Christians how to “transcend” through daily, moment-by-moment, practical methodology that transforms individuals into the image of Christ.

The Biblical Counseling Movement After Adams (Heath Lambert)
Those inside and outside of the biblical counseling movement recognize growing differences between the foundational work of Jay Adams and that of current thought leaders such as David Powlison. But, as any student or teacher of the discipline can attest, those differences have been ill-defined and largely anecdotal until now.
Heath Lambert, the first scholar to analyze the movement’s development from within, shows how refinements in framework, methodology, and engagement style are changing the face of the biblical counseling movement as we know it — producing a second generation of counselors who are increasingly competent to counsel. Find out how the biblical counseling movement has changed and improved and how the present-day leadership differs from the leadership of the past, in a respectful effort to evaluate and advance the efficacy of biblical counseling.

Why Do I Care? When Others’ Approval Matters too Much (Amy Baker)
It is difficult and sometimes frightening not to have the good opinion of others. No one likes to face the possibility of rejection, humiliation, or opposition. Yet, making our goal others’ approval confines us to a small world where life consists of pleasing others.
Experienced counselor Amy Baker shares that rejection by others is not the whole story. There is a bigger story of God’s love for his people. His love endures forever. His love can be relied upon, while people’s opinions shift and change according to whether or not we are pleasing them. But God, in Christ, is totally pleased with us. His opinion of his dearly loved children will not change. When you remember these truths and replace your anxieties about approval with them, you will be free to live and love in God’s world.

The Gift of Addiction: How God Redeems Our Pain (Eric Guzman)
You did it again. You drank. You got high. You slept with him/her. You surfed the Internet. What gift could you possibly find in so much failure? But when your helplessness drives you to turn to God and admit your need, you will experience the greatest gift of all—his presence, his kindness, his forgiveness and his peace.
Author Erik Guzman explains that when we think it’s up to us to rise above our suffering or sin, we alienate ourselves from our only source of help. But when we come to the end of ourselves, realize that our addictions have controlled us and turn in desperation to God, then we see that coming to the end of what we can do is the beginning of faith. That is the gift of addiction.

Glenda’s Story: Led by Grace (Glenda Revell)
Unwanted from birth and abused throughout her childhood, Glenda was desperate for love and a sense of belonging. Her only respite from a miserable home life was school, and the welcoming shade of her favorite willow tree, under which she would dream of another life, another family, and pray to a God she did not yet know.
Ultimately, Glenda’s afflictions became the cords with which God drew her to Himself. Receiving His salvation, she understood that God had saved her from her own sinfulness, more than horrid conditions and treatment by others. This is a story of great hope, an amazing account of how our merciful Savior brings light out of darkness, joy out of sorrow, and peace out of pain. Highly recommended by Elisabeth Elliot.

Blame It On the Brain? (Edward T. Welch)
Distinguishing Chemical Imbalances, Brain Disorders, and Disobedience
Depression – ADD – Alcoholism – Homosexuality – is it really legitimate to say that “mental illness” is the source behind these? Or some other inclination of the mind, planted at birth by forces beyond our control? Are we making creative excuses for our disobedience to God?
Attempting to view the mind by an examination of what Scripture says about it, author Ed Welch shows us that some matters are rooted in the tastes of one’s heart. Perhaps some habits can actually be broken if we learn to think differently with a renewed mind.
