Why Your Work Matters

Tom Nelson

(240 pgs., Brazos Press)

Lakelight Speaker Nancy Ortberg advises readers of Nelson’s book to “sit with these pages. You and the world will be better for it.”


We agree. God cares about your work — He’s deploying your efforts to benefit your neighbors, to shape the world, and ultimately to transform you.

The Extinction of Experience: Being Human in a Disembodied World

Christine Rosen

(272 pgs., W.W. Norton & Company)

An Esquire Best Book of 2024.

What changes when our experiences of play, sex, leisure, work and relationships become mediated through a screen? What have we gained and what have we lost as more and more of our life becomes digitized? Rosen deftly addresses those massive questions in this warm and insightful book.

The Power of Prayer

Charles Spurgeon

(90 pgs., GLH Publishing)

Tim Keller described prayer as “awe, intimacy, struggle—yet the way to reality. There is nothing more important, or harder, or richer, or more life-altering. There is absolutely nothing so great as prayer.”

And yet it’s really hard to do. Charles Spurgeon, the 19th century London pastor, can help. The Power of Prayer will enrich your mind and inflame your heart to seek God in prayer.
