"The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon." Psalm 92:12 This is more than just a verse of Scripture. These words come from the mouth and heart of Almighty God and contain two great promises explained in two grand creation masterpieces: the palm tree and the great cedar of Lebanon. The growth of palms and cedars may not be rapid, but the picture of strength, endurance and resilience cannot be missed or lightly gone over. As we gaze on the palm standing tall and straight, even after a terrific storm battered it, we are to be quick to recognize the comparison the Lord is making in this single verse. And when we pause and reflect the mighty cedar, a tree that was used to bolster the structure of God's Temple in Jerusalem, we have to take a long look at what our God is telling us in this key passage. The palm grows slowly, steadily, untouched by the many challenges and seasons that directly affect other trees. "The Flourishing Soul" focuses on the biblical fact that the righteous will flourish in all places. The palm does so in the valley, while the cedar thrives on the mountain. Both trees are evergreens, implying that the righteous will remain fruitful and useful even "in old age." No matter what the righteous man may encounter, the palm and cedar teach us that flourishing will take place under all circumstances; the palm does so in drought and dreadful storms, while the cedar continues to thrive through harsh, winter storms and frost. Flourishing like the palm tree and growing as strong and tall as a cedar in Lebanon is God's awesome destination for all His children! Throughout "The Flourishing Soul," you'll be taken on a journey of all the places God's Word references the steady and sturdy palm tree. You'll discover how our Christian life is reflected in those many passages and given practical guidelines to help you become that righteous person to flourish as the palm and grow as the cedar!

What keeps us from flourishing in our spiritual lives is a neglect of the inner life of the soul. And more and more today, this neglect is driven by our ambition to accomplish something big outside ourselves. We live in a society that pressures us to achieve professionally, socially, and through the constant acquisition of material possessions. Drawing on a wide range of sources including scripture, church history, psychology, and neuroscience, as well as a rich variety of stories from his own life, Ken Shigematsu demonstrates how the gospel redeems our desires and reorders our lives. He offers fresh perspective on how certain spiritual practices help orient our lives so that our souls can flourish in the midst of a demanding, competitive society. And he concludes with a liberating and counter-cultural definition of true greatness. This book will appeal to anyone who longs to experience a deeper relationship with Christ in the midst of the daily pressures to succeed, as well as to those on the borderlands of faith seeking to transcend the human tendency to define ourselves by our production and success.

These songs are the sensitive, sometimes delicate, always musical writings of a young schizophrenic. The poetry was written when his heart was touched, when he pined for God, when he wept, when he was joyful, when he was heartbroken and when he was filled with rage and nightmares. Readers will love these free-flowing and loosely constructed verses.

Flourishing people are strong and weak. Two common temptations lure us away from abundant living: withdrawing into safety and grasping for power. True flourishing, says Andy Crouch, travels down an unexpected path—being both strong and weak. We see this unlikely mixture in the best leaders—people who use their authority for the benefit of others while also showing extraordinary willingness to face and embrace suffering. We see it in Jesus, who wielded tremendous power yet also exposed himself to hunger, ridicule, torture and death. Rather than being opposites, strength and weakness are actually meant to be combined in every human life and community. With the characteristic insight, memorable stories and hopeful realism he is known for, Andy Crouch shows us how to walk this path so that the image of God can shine through us. Not just for our own good, but for the sake of others. With a new preface by the author, Strong and Weak is now part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press. A new companion Bible study is also available.

Christianity Today Book Award—Church and Pastoral Leadership The Gospel Coalition Book Awards Honorable Mention Pastoral leadership is in crisis. It's not just that many pastors feel overwhelmed and stressed out; many have lost their way. With the risk of burnout at an all-time high, what pastors need is not just a new leadership strategy, but a new framework for ministry—one that will help them move from survival to flourishing. In these pages, Tom Nelson looks to the biblical image of the shepherd leader in response to the contemporary context. If pastors are to lead congregations, then they must first learn what it means to be led by the Good Shepherd. Pulling from his years of experience as a lead pastor and president of a nonprofit, Nelson offers pastors and ministry leaders a timely vision for leadership that incorporates in-depth biblical teaching and whole-life discipleship. His wisdom and insight provide a roadmap for ministry resilience and longevity.

This book is timeless and will help all believers to grow in their faith. It is a useful teaching tool for small groups, a ready source for new believers and a call for all of us to be more effective as Gods warriors in the days ahead.

Winner of the 2022 Rachel Carson Environment Book Award * Winner of the 2022 Science in Society Journalism Award (Books) * Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize “Thoughtful, insightful, and wise, Wild Souls is a landmark work.”--Ed Yong, author of An Immense World "Fascinating . . . hands-on philosophy, put to test in the real world . . . Marris believes that our idea of wildness--our obsession with purity--is misguided. No animal remains untouched by human hands . . . the science isn't the hard part. The real challenge is the ethics, the act of imagining our appropriate place in that world." --Outside Magazine From an acclaimed environmental writer, a groundbreaking and provocative new vision for our relationships with--and responsibilities toward--the planet's wild animals. Protecting wild animals and preserving the environment are two ideals so seemingly compatible as to be almost inseparable. But in fact, between animal welfare and conservation science there exists a space of underexamined and unresolved tension: wildness itself. When is it right to capture or feed wild animals for the good of their species? How do we balance the rights of introduced species with those already established within an ecosystem? Can hunting be ecological? Are any animals truly wild on a planet that humans have so thoroughly changed? No clear guidelines yet exist to help us resolve such questions. Transporting readers into the field with scientists tackling these profound challenges, Emma Marris tells the affecting and inspiring stories of animals around the globe--from Peruvian monkeys to Australian bilbies, rare Hawai'ian birds to majestic Oregon wolves. And she offers a companionable tour of the philosophical ideas that may steer our search for sustainability and justice in the non-human world. Revealing just how intertwined animal life and human life really are, Wild Souls will change the way we think about nature-and our place within it.
