New Books and Authors
Reading While Black
By: Esau McCaulley
"Esau McCaulley combines deep scholarship with an extraordinary ability to communicate with his readers, and his book brings the Bible back to the center of our consciousness on issues of race and discrimination. Hopefully, it will launch a new kind of conversation around a highly fraught and difficult subject." ~ Sarah C. Williams - Regent College
Whole Hearted Faith
By: Rachel Held Evans
This book is for the doubter and the dreamer, the seeker and the sojourner, those who long for a sense of spiritual wholeness. Through theological reflection and personal recollection, Rachel wrestles with God’s grace and love in an imperfect world, looks unsparingly at what the Church is and does, and explores universal human questions about becoming and belonging.
