"Every believer in Jesus Christ deserves the opportunity of personal nurture and development," says LeRoy Eims. But all too often the opportunity isn't there. We neglect the young Christian in our whirl of programs, church services, and fellowship groups. And we neglect to raise up workers and leaders who can disciple young believers into mature and fruitful Christians. In simple, practical, and biblical terms, LeRoy Eims revives the lost art of disciple making. 

We are wired for greatness. We pursue it. We chase after it. We climb ladders and run races. But what if we are running the wrong direction? How is greatness defined as a worship leader? Is it the one with the best voice or the biggest stage, the one with the most followers or songs on the charts? The Christian music industry has set the standard for the way many of us define greatness in worship ministry. We take cues from the leaders with the most followers. We sing their songs and aspire to be like them.

Join author Tamyra Horst as she leads you on a journey to discover God in your "not enoughness".

When we mistake spiritual disciplines for to-dos, time slots on our schedule, or Instagram-able moments, we miss the benefits of Christ’s continual and constant work for us. In Ragged, Gretchen Ronnevik aims to reclaim spiritual disciplines as good gifts, given by our good Father, instead of the heavy burdens of performance carried by the Christian. She uses this distinction between law and gospel, presented throughout Scripture, to guide listeners through spiritual disciplines including prayer, meditation, Scripture reading, and discipleship, among others.
