What if—despite all our familiarity with the events of Holy Week—we still don’t know how Jesus makes peace? And what if—despite clinging to the cross of Christ for our salvation—we’ve actually embraced a different approach to peacemaking? We're revisiting a conversation between ~ing Podcast, host Allison Maus and Jason Porterfield, author of the recent book, Fight Like Jesus: How Jesus Waged Peace Throughout Holy Week, originally published as part of season 2 in 2022.

This Lent, pick up this book as your guide. Author Jason Porterfield’s book guides readers through Lent and the last week of Jesus’ life. We desperately need to recover the radical vision of peacemaking that Jesus embodied throughout Holy Week. And we urgently need to be trained in his way of making peace.

This week, the paperback edition of Fight Light Jesus is 40% off with code WEEKLY at checkout. Offer expires March 5, 2023.

Caring for children is deeply important to the heart of God, and adoption and foster care are important callings that connect to God’s heart for children and families. But this road isn’t always easy. It’s important that foster and adoptive parents prepare to address their children’s history of trauma, separation, and disrupted placements, which can lead to mental health, emotional, and behavioral difficulties. In this episode, we'll talk with Jenn and Joshua Hook, about themes from their new book, Thriving Families: A Trauma-Informed Guidebook for the Foster and Adoptive Journey, and begin to unpack how this journey can shape and influence our children. This meaningful book is available now from Herald Press.

Christmas is about so much more than twinkle lights, sugar cookies, and perfect family photos. It’s about the world-changing, transforming, and sometimes messy reality of “God with us.” 

Through invitational spiritual practices and reflections, Pastor Joana Harader has created a daily Advent devotional centered on the stories of five women in Jesus’ genealogy—Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary—plus three additional female figures connected to Jesus’ early life in the days leading up to Epiphany. We'll learn more about how she arrived at this project, and where you can find this brand new resource available now from MennoMedia.
