Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind….

I memorized the first two verses of Romans 12 a long time ago. They continue to challenge me to be transformed by the renewing of my mind. I’ve learned over the years that reading—along with God’s Word, prayer, and worship music—is an important part of renewing my mind every day. It fascinates me that our brains can form words out of squiggly marks on a page and then those words make us think differently, feel differently, and take action!

Our mission at David C Cook is “to equip the Church with Christ-centered resources for making and teaching today’s disciples who obediently transform today’s gen-erations.” That’s a powerful mission! We can influence the transformation of a person’s mind to be more Christ-like and give them the resources to take action. If you are a re-tailer, I hope it’s encouraging to you to realize that you are an important part of God’s plan for the Church.

I am writing this a day after meeting with Jeff Shinabarger, the author of More or Less: Choosing a Lifestyle of Excessive Generosity. One of the most inspiring calls to action that I’ve read, More or Less explores how to turn excess into so-cially conscious giving. Jeff and his wife have learned how to change their consumption patterns to do this, and they have practical helps for readers to do it too.

Cold-Case Christianity: A Homicide Detective Investigates the Claims of the Gospels by J. Warner Wallace challenges read-ers to take action with confidence as they share Christ with others. An LA County homicide detective, Wallace was a vocal atheist until he looked at the claims of Christianity through the lens of a detective. Now he is an apologist with a fascinating exploration of the evidence for Christ. Cold-Case Christianity includes gripping real-life stories and pro-fessional drawings to examine the case for Christianity in the same way a homicide detective examines the evidence of a cold-case.

Gary Thomas, the bestselling author of Sacred Marriage, has written a new book to help singles and engaged cou-ples take action to find a marriage that will last: The Sacred Search: What If It’s Not about Who You Marry, But Why? This book has the potential to change marriages before they begin by shifting the focus from how marriage can make us happy to how God designed marriage to make us holy.

Finally, a highlight from our fiction line-up is Home Run. Talk about taking action! Home Run is a novelization of Home Run, the movie, that will release in theaters throughout the country in March 2013. Max Lucado says it best: “Home Run reminds us of the power of for-giveness, the richness of redemption, and the wisdom of trusting God to revive us.”

We believe these books will have a great impact on you and your customers. As you can see, each one comes with a challenge: Action required! We appreciate your partnership in getting them into the hands of as many people as possible.

God Bless,

Transformed by the renewing of your mind

THE SACRED SEARCHWhat If It’s Not about Who You Marry, But Why?

gary thomas

The celebrated author of Sacred Marriage explores love, dating, and how to make a marriage spectacular even before it starts.

The success of Gary Thomas’ previous books comes from a revolutionary change in thought: What if God designed marriage to make us holy rather than to make us happy? Now he asks: How can couples benefit from these insights before they walk down the aisle? Whether readers are single, dating, or engaged, Gary’s perspective will help them let go of the idea of finding a “soul mate” and instead adopt a biblical “sole mate” way of thinking that dedicates marriage to working out, together, a common faith in Christ. This unique take on romance reminds readers that a good marriage is something you make.

T h e A u T h o rGary Thomas is writer-in-residence at Second Baptist Church in Houston, a frequent guest on Focus on the Family and FamilyLife Today radio, and a popular speaker around the world. His award-winning books have been translated into a dozen languages and sold hundreds of thousands of copies. Thomas and his wife have three children.

MoRE oR LESSchoosing a Lifestyle of excessive generosity

jeff shinabarger

In More or Less, Jeff Shinabarger calls readers to create their own social experiments to answer the question, “What is enough?”

It all started with one idea: What would happen if we created a culture in which we gave away whatever was more than enough for us? How would our habits change if we shed the excess of money, clutter, and food in our lives?

In More or Less, readers will learn how to draw a line of “enough” in their consumer choices, how to see generosity as a chance to experience freedom in a greedy world, and how to make small changes now that will help others forever. As Shinabarger reminds readers, defining “enough” is more than a responsibility—it is an opportunity to give hope.

T h e A u T h o rJeff Shinabarger is a social entrepreneur, experience designer, cofounder of the Q event, and creative director at Catalyst. He is also the founder of GiftCardGiver.com and Plywood People, an innovative community addressing social needs through creative services. He and his family live in East Atlanta Village.

Written by an LA County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator.

Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses artistic illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity.

A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold- Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

T h e A u T h o rJ. Warner Wallace is a cold-case homicide detective, a missions leader, and a church planter. As a result of his work with cold cases, Wallace has been featured on numerous television programs including Dateline, FOX News, and Court TV. Wallace’s visual presentations in the courtroom have revolutionized how capital offense trials are presented in Los Angeles County and across the country. A vocal atheist for many years, Wallace is now an apologist for Christianity and the founder of the PleaseConvinceMe.com blog and podcast, with a master’s degree in theology. He and his wife have four children and live in southern California.

The fourth electrifying film in Erwin McManus’s SIGNS series, Fire explores what it means to be light in a dark world.

Darkness. Then, slowly, a lit match. We see a fire. And nothing is ever the same.

In Fire, McManus uses this simple imagery to challenge viewers to become light in the world. When God created light, He separated it from darkness. And He called it good. As McManus reminds viewers, your light is good, and a reflection of God’s glory. It cannot and should not and will not be hidden. When followers of Christ live out this truth, the fire of their lives is nothing less than world changing.

T h e A u T h o rErwin Raphael McManus is an artist, filmmaker, author, storyteller, activist, and innovator. He is the creative force behind McManus Studios and primary communicator for Mosaic in Los Angeles. McManus has spoken to over one million people around the world about the importance of creativity,

beauty, and story in light of God’s vision for humanity. McManus and his family live in Los Angeles.

The second film in the True Beauty series for women featuring Lisa Chan, Deny Yourself counters the lie, “It’s all about me,” with the freeing truth, “I belong to Jesus.”

In this short film, Lisa Chan asks, “Do you trust God when He says that by losing your life … you will actually find it?” As she explores themes of humility, sacrifice, and service, she guides viewers into the peace and joy of surrendering themselves to God every day.

Like every film in the True Beauty series, Deny Yourself weaves Chan’s teaching with another woman’s story. Rich in Scripture and practical application, these unique films—which are ideal for small groups or individuals—point women to the freeing discovery that true beauty lies in the heart.

T h e A u T h o rLisa Chan is a mother of five and cofounder (with her husband, Francis) of Cornerstone Community Church in Simi Valley, California. An accomplished singer, Lisa has recorded three albums, including Endless Beauty. Lisa and Francis live with their family in San Francisco.

CHURCH ZERoraising 1st century churches out of the Ashes of the 21st century church

peyton jones

A radical call to reform, Church Zero is a punk-rock approach to the pressing issue of gaining ground as rapidly as the early church.

With an attitude and heart developed in the dirty trenches of international post-Christian societies, Peyton Jones pulls no punches as he brings this message to the American Church: We have lost our way.

The church is losing ground fast: losing the generation under age 30 and drawing few nonbelievers toward Christ.

Christ gave a leadership model for commando outreach, and the church has ignored it for too long. Will it continue down the path of self-preservation, defending its stalled church structures? Or will the church follow the blueprint Jesus lays out?

Church Zero challenges readers to once again become a radical, dangerous people who cannot be ignored. It’s time to break out!

T h e A u T h o rPeyton Jones is founding coach of New Breed Church Planting UK/USA. A serial church planter, Jones is currently planting his second stateside church in urban Long Beach, California. He planted his first church at age 24 and has worked as a tentmaker, firefighter, factory worker, and psychiatric nurse, bringing all these experiences to the table in ministry. Jones received his MA in Theology: Pastoral Studies from Wales Evangelical School of Theology and served as the evangelist for Lloyd-Jones’s legendary Sandfields church, Aberavon.

While retirement can be liberating, it can also feel daunting. For decades a man focuses on building his career, providing for his family, and being a father to his children.

New Man Journey offers a practical game plan for men seeking purpose, fulfillment, and spiritual growth. Drawing from years of senior men’s ministry and his own journey, Steve Silver encourages readers to examine their priorities and plan for the adventure of a lifetime. Warm in tone, conversational in style, New Man Journey is ideal for any retiree who’s ready for the next challenge and chapter of his life.

T h e A u T h o rSteve Silver is a semi-retired executive and the founder of Men’s Golf Fellowship, an organization dedicated to helping retired men take a fresh look at their goals, relationships, and faith.

REAL vALoRA charge to Nurture and protect Your FamilyBold Man of god Series

steve farrar

Steve Farrar’s latest entry in the Bold Man of God series challenges readers to be men of valor, shepherding their families with integrity.

Boaz became a part of the greatest story in history when he made his decision to marry Ruth. Steve Farrar examines this choice and explains how boldness opens up a man’s life to the adventure of God’s will. In a culture that deflates masculinity and reflects the sad state of fatherhood in our world today, Boaz stands as an example of true biblical manhood—manhood based not on financial wealth or physical strength, but on a man’s ability to lead his family into security and faith. Real Valor encourages men to rise up and care for their families in the way of Boaz.

T h e A u T h o rSteve Farrar is the founder of Men’s Leadership Ministries. He holds a master’s degree from Western Seminary and an earned doctorate from Dallas Theological Seminary. Farrar is the author of the best-selling book, Point Man: How a Man Can Lead His Family, as well as God Built, Battle Ready, and True Courage. He resides in Texas with his family.

GoD’S FAvoRiTE PLACE oN EARTHfrank viola

When He came to earth, Jesus Christ was rejected in every quarter. The Creator was rejected by His own creation.

For this reason, Jesus Christ had “no where to lay His head.” There was one exception, however. A little village just outside of Jerusalem called Bethany. Bethany was the only place on earth where Jesus was completely received.

God’s Favorite Place On Earth is a brilliant retelling of Jesus’ many visits to Bethany, as author Frank Viola unpacks the touching message it holds for readers today. In profoundly moving prose, God’s Favorite Place On Earth will captivate readers with its beauty, charm, and depth. Readers will discover how to live as a “Bethany” in the world today.

T h e A u T h o rFrank Viola is a popular conference speaker and the best-selling author of numerous books on the deeper Christian life, including From Eternity to Here, Revise Us Again, and Jesus Manifesto (co-authored with Leonard Sweet). His blog, Beyond Evangelical, is rated as one of the most popular in Christian circles today: frankviola.org.

HoME RUNA Novel

travis thrasher

Home Run: A Novel is based on the major motion picture release starring Vivica A. Fox and Scott Elrod, hitting theaters in Spring 2013.

Major League baseball player, Cory Brand, is an all-star who excels at hitting home runs but is striking out in his personal life. After being thrown out of a game for knocking over a ball boy during a drunken tirade and forced into rehab by his team, Cory goes back to the hometown in Oklahoma he ran away from. While coaching a Little League baseball team in order to get back onto the starting roster, Cory joins a Celebrate Recovery® group—and what he doesn’t realize is that this group will change his life, his relationships, his career—everything. The inspiring and authentic message of Home Run is that freedom is possible. This story says that no hurt is beyond healing, no habit is beyond help, and no hang-up is beyond hope.

David Boyd, whose credits include the film Get Low and the TV shows Friday Night Lights and Without a Trace, directed Home Run, the movie.

REiGNThe chronicles of Queen JezebelBook 3 – Lost Loves of the Bible

ginger garrett

From critically acclaimed author Ginger Garret comes a compelling portrait of one of the most notorious women of the Old Testament, Jezebel.

Reign is faithful to the biblical account, with startling evidence uncovered by archeologists woven into the story. From her marriage to Ahab until her death, Jezebel’s heart is unveiled—a heart capable of passion and pain, love and hate. Captivating storytelling reveals another side to a familiar story as Jezebel maneuvers through heated palace politics, pitting the goddess Asherah against Obadiah’s God, Yahweh. And it may cost her everything. 

The third book in the Lost Loves of the Bible fiction series is ideally suited for historical fiction fans and anyone fascinated by the lives of biblical women. It’s as haunting as it is relevant—the story of a woman forced to choose between love and vengeance.

T h e A u T h o rGinger Garrett, the author of several critically acclaimed books including Chosen, Desired, and Dark Hour, is a popular speaker, radio host, and expert in ancient women’s history. A resident of Atlanta, Georgia, she frequently appears as a guest on television news and talk shows.

With a creative perspective on timeless truths, The Most Important Thing Happening is a collection of eleven fantastical short stories that will leave readers with a deeper understanding of God’s work in their lives.

The characters in The Most Important Thing Happening move through the whimsical, the mysterious, and the introspective to the truths every seeker needs to know.

T h e A u T h o rMark Steele is the president of Steelehouse Productions, where he creates art for film, stage, and animation. The author of the award-winning book Flashbang, as well as Christianish, and Half-Life/Die Already, Steele is also the chief of creative affairs for Big Idea, where he scripts the popular series VeggieTales.

These are stories that the whole family will enjoy, presented in an entertaining way that parents and grandparents won’t grow tired of reading and re-reading night after night. The humorous, contemporary illustrations will keep even today’s media-deluged kids laughing while they learn important biblical messages. Parents will love that their kids are asking to read Bible stories!

T h e A u T h o rKelly Pulley works from his middle Tennessee home writing and illustrating children’s picture books, including the first two books in the Magnificent Tales series, Food for a Fish and Good News of Great Joy, and Ten Unusual Features of Lulu McDunn and The Cycling Wangdoos. He is best known for illustrating dozens of books in the Beginner’s Bible series including The Beginner’s Bible (over 1.25 million copies sold).
