"Love. It's that thing everyone talks about but very few will ever truly put into action. It's the fuel with which we are called to live, and it's the very reason Jesus' body was brutally broken upon that splintered cross. It's unbeatable, unrestricted, and hands down the greatest attribute of God. It will transform the way you see life, and it will radically invade the way you see others. The question is, have you discovered and harnessed it the way God intended?In Love Is Oxygen, you will engage with the reality of God's love as something you can know and personally experience. This love transcends fear and circumstances, and it pushes us into places we never imagined. After all, living God's love is like breathing-it gives life as we breathe it in . . . and then we can't help but breathe it out to the people around us."

Jesus is alive! So why do we follow him like he's not?Sometime during the centuries between Jesus' time on earth and ours, we started to believe that living vicariously through the ancient disciples was the closest we could ever get to being discipled by Jesus. But Jesus promised to never leave us or forsake us. He is alive, and because of his great love for each of us, Jesus is ready, willing, and able to do for us what he did for the twelve.Robert Gelinas dives into the Bible to show us the Jesus of the gospels, and the Jesus who is alive and yearning to disciple each one of us today.Isn't it time we allowed ourselves to be discipled by Jesus?

If you feel the ache of brokenness, you will be refreshed by the source of all courage illuminated in these pages. God is available and wants to join you, in the midst of any mess.

2017 Christianity Today Book Award winner ("Christian Living / Discipleship" category)Get ready for the wettest, stormiest, wildest trip through the Gospel you've ever taken!The gospels are dramatic, wild, and wet--set in a rich maritime culture on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus' first disciples were ragtag fishermen, and Jesus' messages and miracles teem with water, fish, fishermen, net-breaking catches, sea crossings, boat-sinking storms, and even a walk on water. Because this world is foreign and distant to us, we've missed much about the disciples' experiences and about following Jesus--until now. Leslie Leyland Fields--a well-known writer, respected biblical exegete, and longtime Alaskan fisherwoman--crosses the waters of time and culture to take us out on the Sea of Galilee, through a rugged season of commercial fishing with her family in Alaska, and through the waters of the New Testament.You'll be swept up in a fresh experience of the gospels, traveling with the fishermen disciples from Jesus' baptism to the final miraculous catch of fish--and also experiencing Leslie's own efforts to follow Christ out on her own Alaskan sea. In a time when so many are "unfollowing" Jesus and leaving the Church, Crossing the Waters delivers a fresh encounter with Jesus and explores what it means to "come, follow me."
