Formed For Fellowship
$22.99
You are being formed. The only question is what is forming you?
The truth is that your life will look like whatever you love most.
You are shaped by what you seek. You become what you behold.
What we spend our time consuming will inform who we are becoming, and where we set our eyes today will determine the trajectory of who we are years and even decades from now. God’s invitation to His people is to be formed for fellowship: fellowship with God and with one another.
We are born into this world malformed and broken, but we don’t have to stay that way. God loves us and He wants to change us. “Spiritual Formation” is the question of what, why, and how God changes His people to look more and more like Christ.
Christians often struggle with the “Why?” of the Christian life: Why is it good to obey God? Why pray? Why read the bible? Why share the gospel? In Formed for Fellowship: Becoming what you Behold, Kyle Worley helps connect the dots between the practices of the Christian life and the nature and works of God. If we become what we behold, then every “spiritual discipline” of the Christian life must lead us to look upon God.
Formed for Fellowship will answer crucial questions like:
*What is a person?
*How are we formed?
*Where do we belong?
*What do we love?
*What do we know?
*What has our attention?
*What do we give our time to?
*Where is our hope?
*Who is our enemy?
Every one of us is being shaped, changed, and formed every day. Are we being shaped to look more like Christ or more like the world? Formed for Fellowship is an invitation to look upon God and be changed.

How Far To The Promised Land
$28.42From the New York Times contributing opinion writer and award-winning author of Reading While Black, Esau McCaulley shares a riveting intergenerational account of his family’s search for home and hope.
For much of his life, Esau McCaulley was taught to see himself as an exception: someone who, through hard work, faith, and determination, overcame childhood poverty, anti-Black racism, and an absent father to earn a job as a university professor and a life in the middle class.
But that narrative was called into question one night, when McCaulley answered the phone and learned that his father-whose absence defined his upbringing-died in a car crash. McCaulley was being asked to deliver his father’s eulogy, to make sense of his complicated legacy in a country that only accepts Black men on the condition that they are exceptional, hardworking, perfect.
The resulting effort sent McCaulley back through his family history, seeking to understand the community that shaped him. In these pages, we meet his great-grandmother Sophia, a tenant farmer born with the gift of prophecy who scraped together a life in Jim Crow Alabama; his mother, Laurie, who raised four kids alone in an era when single Black mothers were demonized as “welfare queens”; and a cast of family, friends, and neighbors who won small victories in a world built to swallow Black lives. With profound honesty and compassion, he raises questions that implicate us all: What does each person’s struggle to build a life teach us about what we owe each other? About what it means to be human?
How Far to the Promised Land is a thrilling and tender epic about being Black in America. It’s a book that questions our too-simple narratives about poverty and upward mobility; a book in which the people normally written out of the American Dream are given voice.
