The Intentional Father

Jon Tyson

(256 pages, Baker)

Your kids will be out the door before you know it. Are you ready?

Most fathers aren't. They're reactive instead of intentional, responding to crises instead of creating a plan. Jon Tyson isn't here to guilt-trip you; he’s here to offer a tactical guide for dads who want to make every year count.

The Expulsive Power of A New Affection

Thomas Chalmers

(80 pgs., Crossway)

Why do we keep falling back into the same destructive patterns? Because willpower alone doesn’t break addictions or transform hearts.

Instead, you need what Thomas Chalmers calls "the expulsive power of a new affection" — an experience of God's grace so compelling that it crowds out lesser desires.

Status Anxiety

Alain De Botton

(320 pgs., Vintage)

In a culture where you can be “anything you want to be,” status is up for grabs. And that’s a good thing — to a point.

Mixing insights from Kierkegaard to Kim Kardashian, Alain De Botton reveals how status anxiety secretly controls our choices, relationships, and self-worth.
