Though one in four pregnancies ends in loss, miscarriage is shrouded in such secrecy and stigma that the woman who experiences it often feels deeply isolated, unsure how to process her grief. Her body seems to have betrayed her. Her confidence in the goodness of God is rattled. Her loved ones don't know what to say. Her heart is broken. She may feel guilty, ashamed, angry, depressed, confused, or alone. With vulnerability and tenderness, Adriel Booker shares her own experience of three consecutive miscarriages, as well as the stories of others. She tackles complex questions about faith and suffering with sensitivity and clarity, inviting women to a place of grace, honesty, and hope in the redemptive purposes of God without offering religious clichés and pat answers. She also shares specific, practical resources, such as ways to help guide children through grief, suggestions for memorializing your baby, and advice on pregnancy after loss, as well as a special section for dads and loved ones.

What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

"[May] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory . . . give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you." (Eph. 1:17-18)At Core Christianity, our mission is to help people understand the Bible and the core truths of the Christian faith. We do this every time we answer a caller's question on our daily radio show, in every article we share on corechristianity.com, and in every resource we produce designed to help people gain a clearer understanding of the gospel--the core message of Christianity. Every day, we receive many different questions. Often, as we answer these questions from God's word, we find ourselves also recommending that everyone "look to Jesus Christ" for salvation, assurance, and grace for living. In Seeing Jesus, Pastor Adriel Sanchez helps readers look to Jesus Christ and see him as he is revealed in Scripture. We believe that clearly and accurately understanding the identity of Christ is an essential part of the Christian experience. As Pastor Adriel often says, "The more I read the Bible, the more I'm amazed by it." As you read Seeing Jesus, we hope you will be amazed by the truth of who Jesus is and how much he loves you. Pastor Adriel Sanchez received his theological training under Dr. Michael Horton from Westminster Seminary California and now serves as an ordained pastor of North Park Presbyterian Church (PCA) in San Diego. He is a member of the Pastor's Advisory Council for Core Christianity, cohost of the Core Christianity radio program, and is a content creator at corechristianity.com.

Arguing that the way Jesus leads and the way we follow are symbiotic, Peterson begins with a study of how the ways of those who came before Christ revealed and prepared the way of the Lord that became complete in Jesus. He then challenges the ways of the contemporary American church, showing in stark relief how what we have chosen to focus on--consumerism, celebrity, charisma, and so forth--obliterates what is unique in the Jesus way.
