The Reason For Sports
A Christian Fanifesto
Author: Ted Kluck
Binding Type: Paperback
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 978-0-8024-5836-0
Retail Price: $13.99
From the Publisher:
There are books on how to worship God with our marriages, our money, and our sex lives. Books on how to "think biblically" about movies, television, and the arts. Books on how to vote Christianly and how not to vote Christianly. But there is little thoughtful, Christ-centered writing on the subject that drives most of men's banter with each other and consumes the bulk of their free time. Sports.
Written in the vein of Rick Reilly (Sports Illustrated), Chuck Klosterman (Spin,Esquire), and David Foster Wallace (A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again), The Reason for Sports will both entertain and shed light on some of today's most pertinent sports issues: race, drugs, hero worship, and more - all through a biblical lens.

Undefiled
Redemption from Sexual Sin, Restoration for Broken Relationships
Author: Harry Schaumburg
Binding Type: Paperback
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 978-0-8024-6069-1
Retail Price: $14.99
From the Publisher:
Amid the chaos of cybersex, impersonal sex, adultery, homosexuality, and sexual dissatisfaction in marriage, Undefiled calls readers toward a new kind of sexual revolution. Sexual impurity creates a vicious circle, one that springs from misconceptions about Christ and further taints our understanding of Him. Yet another circle is available to men and women trapped in sin, a circle of sexual redemption.
When practiced as God intends, spirituality and sexuality both draw us closer to Christ. Spiritual maturity and sexual maturity go hand-in-hand, and together they hold out the promise of redemption and restoration needed by everyone who has been damaged by sexual sin.
There is hope. Real change is possible; true intimacy is available. To the person who has failed time and time again sexually, God's message is simple: you, too, can be undefiled.

Pastoring Men
What Works, What Doesn’t, and Why It Matters Now More Than Ever
Author: Patrick Morley
Binding Type: Hardcover
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 978-0-8024-7553-4
Retail Price: $19.99
From the Publisher:
“Much has been made about the ‘men problem.’ You can hear about it on Oprah. You can read about it in Time. Everyone is concerned about it. Many address the consequences of it, yet very few people are doing anything that will change the root of it.”
No man fails on purpose, yet our society is wrought with the results. And our well-intentioned solutions often don’t deal with the root issue. What solution does Pastoring Men offer? Disciple men.
The purpose of Pastoring Men is to equip you to effectively reach all of your men.
Men are hard to reach. But be assured—if you do, they will change the world.

Choosing Gratitude
Your Journey to Joy
Author: Nancy Leigh DeMoss
Binding Type: Hardcover
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 978-0-8024-3252-0
Retail Price: $17.99
From the Publisher:
Gratitude is a choice. If we fail to choose it, by default we choose ingratitude. And once allowed into the heart, ingratitude does not come by itself but with a lot of other seedy companions that only succeed in stealing joy. To not choose gratitude - daily and deliberately - is more costly than we usually realize. And when we do choose a lifestyle of heartfelt, humble gratitude, we are mindful of the benefits received from our gracious Savior and those He has placed around us. By intentionally thanking God and others, bitterness and entitlement are replaced with joy and the humble realization of just how undeserving we really are.
Derived from a popular Revive Our Hearts radio series, Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy challenges and equips the reader to live a life of intention. A life based on thankfulness - for the freedom Christ has provided and for the blessings of others.
