At the hidden center of man's being is the dwelling place of the triune God. It is such a private, intimate place that no one can intrude but Christ, and even he will enter only through an invitation of faith.

A Nu Religion: The Nu Bible is a bold reimagining of what faith, morality, and love mean in the modern world. Written by an everyday man, Jerome R. Shuler Jr. blends philosophy, humor, and raw storytelling to challenge the myths we were raised on — from religion and capitalism to race, lust, and technology. Through a mix of real-life stories, cultural commentary, and poetic reflection, The Nu Bible calls for a global shift: from ego to empathy, from division to unity, from worshiping wealth to honoring the self.

According to Drs. Larry Crabb and Dan Allender, encouragement is more than a compliment or a pat on the back. It's a skill that can be mastered by anyone. Crabb and Allender ask: "What must we know in order to fulfill the biblical exhortation to 'encourage one another?'" Encouragement provides...

Despite setbacks, failures, and pressures, we can still find purpose, meaning, and direction in life and be the men God calls us to be.
