Jon shares why he created Resilient Daughters and insights about what you can do right now to cultivate emotional safety and a Kingdom presence in your home and the heart of your daughter. From Raising Resilient Daughters... "Your daughters need you...When you have a daughter, something different happens in your heart. A new kind of resolve rises that you didn’t know was possible. A resolve to love her, protect her, prepare her to thrive in the world. But that resolve is getting harder to live out in the craziness of our modern world. There is a serious challenge in our current cultural moment."

A Sharp Compassion offers readers a closer look at Jesus’ most challenging words. Through a careful study of the conversations in which Jesus offended, you will discover a savior willing to risk offending you to save you from your deepest insecurities. https://asharpcompassion.com/ Chase has been the pastor of Bent Oak Church in Springfield, Missouri for almost ten years.

Warning authentic conversation follows. Be prepared to talk to your kids about sex if they are listening. -- Meaning Making is for those who have laughed and cried and loved and lost and are now staring down the decades that remain, wondering how to ensure they don’t miss out on the exquisite chaos of the here and now. No one is broken, everyone is worthy of being known, and we’re all a collection of complex, beautiful messes. These are the core truths that drive this gritty and authentic book forward. It’s about becoming fully human, one moment at a time—no matter what age you are. This is not memoir or self-help. Chris acknowledges he doesn’t have all the answers (or many at all). He doesn’t offer five-step action plans, earth-shattering advice, or a promise to change your life. Instead, he shares seemingly ordinary anecdotes, mundane moments that become formative life lessons—but only if we choose to make meaning from them. Vulnerable, heartfelt, and relatable, Meaning Making is about Chris’s commitment to embracing the second half of life—and inviting you to do the same. Chris Field is an award-winning author and two-time TEDx speaker. He is the founder of Mercy Project, an innovative nonprofit that combats child trafficking in Ghana’s fishing industry. Mercy Project has rescued, rehabilitated, and reintegrated nearly three hundred formerly enslaved children back into their families. Chris has broken multiple Guinness world records, run dozens of marathons, and taught hundreds of business students at Texas A&M University. His previous books include Disrupting for Good and A Billion Hours of Good. He lives in College Station, Texas, with his wife, Stacey, and their four children. While all of this sounds really important and impressive (which he understands is the point of this section), he’s also just a regular guy who loses his temper, forgets his wallet, messes up a lot, and has a whole host of shortcomings equally as unimpressive as the two paragraphs above. In other words, he’s a beggar on a journey for bread, just like everyone else in the world.
