The Light in Our Eyes by Nicholas McDonald

Drawing from his own deconstruction journey and time spent helping people work through serious questions and doubts, Pastor Nicholas McDonald shares more than mere apologetics answers but the good news that speaks to our deepest dreams. The Light in Our Eyes offers nine ancient practices to help you experience anew—or for the first time—Jesus’s love, beauty, and freedom and to embody and extend them in the world. Through the scriptural song of Zechariah and relatable, inspiring stories of men and women who have been restoried by the gospel of Jesus, this book reminds us that Jesus’ dreams fulfill what our hearts have longed for all along.

Made for People by Justin Whitmel Earley

Loneliness is deadly. We know this psychologically and spiritually. Sin wants us to be alone, and it often feels like today's world is tailor-made to keep us that way. Isolation may be the norm of modern life, but it doesn’t have to be the story of yours, and it isn’t what you were made for. In fact, you were made to be among people who know you fully and love you anyway. See how God made us to experience deep friendship and how we can cultivate them despite a culture of busyness, disconnection, and fear of vulnerability.
