How To Read Your Bible So You Really Encounter God (Best Bibles & Resources)


To be raw honest, I have fallen deeper than I have ever known.
Deeper in love than I have ever known.
And quite honestly, I didn’t expect it to go quite like this. But it’s been such a season, personally, collectively — a long season of tenderness, unspoken broken, and us all battling the dark, in all kinds of very real ways.
Ready to smile this weekend?!!

Greatly To Be Praised
on the book stack at the farm

In Becoming a Person of Welcome, Laura Murray challenges common assumptions about hospitality and invites readers to reframe their understanding, shifting from outward performance to inward transformation.
Through heartfelt stories from her Armenian heritage, contemporary community life, and years in church leadership, Murray offers a new vision of hospitality—one that moves beyond performance and privilege to a life shaped by God’s welcome of us.

In their new book, Deeply Loved, Bill and Kristi Gaultiere show you how to stop settling for shallow relationships by receiving and reflecting God’s great compassion for you.You’ll discover how to release worries, comfort hurts, and resolve conflicts. You’ll learn how to resist judging your emotions and needs by agreeing with God’s grace. You’ll appreciate Bible-based empathy practices to know that you and the people you care for are deeply loved by Jesus.
Get your copy now and invite your friends to join you in experiencing the deep, deep love of our Lord and Savior.
