Prophecy: Connecting People to Jesus by Merlin D. Burt
“Through the prophetic word, God connects with us on a deep and personal level. Even though God is high above us and is beyond our comprehension, He still comes close to us through the working of the Holy Spirit, who can catch our attention and touch our hearts in many ways, but the clearest and most trustworthy way is through the special revelation that comes through the Bible and prophetic revelation.”
Step Out in Faith by John Wesley Taylor V
“Despite the unknown future, despite incredible suffering, the person of faith is able to affirm: ‘I know that my Redeemer lives!’ (Job 19: 25, NKJV).”
Science or Scientism? by Leonard Brand

How to Know When to Cut Your Ties by Jason Miller
“I don’t know what issues you face, but I do know this. At some point, you will have to decide whether or not to cut ties. As you contemplate that decision, let the lessons from the story of Hezekiah guide you as they did me. Don’t try to fight the enemy’s stance and enticements on your own. Go to God and let Him guide you regarding the decisions you must make in your life.”
I Will Go by Leylén Marcó
“At a conference on missions, I was immersing myself in story after story of God’s miraculous interventions in distant lands. Even as I listened, I wondered: Could it be that God had a place for me in Global Mission? He did.”
Living Beyond Grief by Denny Rengifo
“Christians may believe that faith in Christ and the prospect of eternal life can take away the need to grieve, the need to cry, and the need to be fully human. But rather than denying the pain of the human predicament, it is faith and God’s enduring presence that enable us to grieve, but with hope.”
