“If you find yourself battling the winter blues, you’ll find a kindred spirit in Steinbeck’s Ethan Hawley. And there’s no better time to read The Winter of Our Discontent than December—its themes of longing, and moral clarity feel especially resonant in the quiet, reflective rhythm of the season.” - Patterson
'“This book is small but mighty! Although short, it's beautifully written and packed with thought-provoking insights about the virtues. If you want to think more about how to live a flourishing life with God, I highly recommend it!” - Andrew
"Based on an amazing true story, this book follows the life of Pino Lella, a young man in Milan who risks his life to help Jews escape from Nazi occupied Italy and later spies for the Allies as the personal driver for a top Nazi general. A true tale of epic courage and survival in the face of evil.” - Jason
“There's something truly powerful about a question that's both intentional and thoughtful - it makes you feel seen and heard. When someone asks with genuine curiosity, it creates a space where you can be your authentic self. In that moment, it feels like the question itself opens a door to deeper connection, and there's a sense of safety and trust. In this book, J.R. Briggs explores how intentional, well-crafted questions can transform relationships, leadership, and spiritual growth. It’s fascinating how questions can act as bridges, connecting individuals to each other and fostering deeper engagement within a larger community.” -MK
"'This enjoyable read is all about a person's walk and journey with God from valleys to high mountaintops. I’d recommend this because it gives a simple but powerful picture of how God transforms fear and insecurity into strength and joy. Easy read and full of encouragement!” - Tristan
“This collection of sermons (I know, I know…) preached by one of the often overlooked treasures in our time, is worth picking up if only for the introduction, which is absolutely formative for our Christian identity and life in the world, and worth reading any time of year.” - Allan
“I make a habit of rereading literature written for children every year, and the practice is always a blessing to me. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is a classic that reminds me, with heart and humor, of the beautiful mystery of the Christmas story and the hope offered to all of us in His coming.” - Derren
"This is the first book of CS Lewis’ Space Trilogy. If you enjoy The Chronicles of Narnia, this is like the “adult” version of that. There are so many traces of God in this book and it teaches us about the divine and about our own humanity.” - Connor
'“Though a smaller work of Keller’s, this is a book that’s important to revisit often and one I could read daily. If you’re wondering what some of the marks of a heart truly changed by God actually look like, I encourage you to check this out and learn more about what gospel-humility looks like – “because the essence of gospel-humility is not thinking more of myself or thinking less of myself, it is thinking of myself less.” - Elizabeth
"David Whyte is an Irish Poet and essayist who puts words to realities that are sometimes difficult to express. This book is somewhat autobiographical while exploring questions of identity and vocation. Here is a teaser: ‘Often, in order to stay alive, we have to unmake a living in order to get back to living the life we wanted for ourselves. It is this cycle of making, disintegration, and remaking that is the hallmark of meaningful and creative work.’ PSA: sometimes his syntax and arrangement of words can feel like taking too big a bite of very rich food.” -Will
