The Day Metallica Came to Church: Searching for the Everywhere God in Everything: What do the music of Metallica and Bach, the film Crash, and stories about Batman have in common? According to author and pastor John Van Sloten, God can speak through all of them—if we’re listening.

“If only I knew how to find him” (Job 23:3). Job, meet John. John Van Sloten has developed a spiritual radar-system which picks up the vibes of the Spirit in the culture and the church. In this amazing book he shows us how we too can read the divine by radar, stay on course, and lead a supercharged life.”

Just One Click: Christians, Pornography, and the Lure of Cybersex: Internet abuse statistics are shocking, even among Christians. This book is for those who struggle with sexual temptation on the Internet, and for their families, pastors, and friends. Using real-life stories and examples, two leading experts from the Hope & Healing Institute provide guidance and offer strategies to overcome the problem.

Shaped by God: Twelve Essentials for Nurturing Faith in Children, Youth, and Adults: In this accessible anthology, twelve experts share their perspectives on faith formation at home, in worship, in education, in intergenerational contexts, in people with developmental disabilities, and more. Indispensable reading for pastors, church leaders, education committees, parents, and educators.

Shaped by God is a helpful, faithful collection of short, introductory essays on faith formation or Christian nurture highly recommended for beginners.”
