Pilgrimage Into Letting Go
$21.99
How parents and pastors can trade anxiety for authentic relationships
What do pastors and parents have in common? They often feel pressure to be in control.
If you’re an anxious parent watching your teens navigate an unpredictable world or a ministry leader overwhelmed by the pressure to “save” the church in today’s challenging landscape, Andy and Kara Root understand your struggle–and they’ve discovered a transformative path forward. They learned that releasing control actually helps us regain genuine connection.
When control-focused approaches to Christian parenting and church leadership left them exhausted, this ministry couple followed the ancient way of Saint Cuthbert and embarked on an extraordinary sixty-three-mile walking pilgrimage across England and Scotland with their two kids. In this book, they offer:
*strategies for parents to move from anxiety-driven control to faith-based guidance that strengthens family relationships,
*insights for pastors and ministry leaders on embracing uncertainty as a pathway to authentic spiritual leadership amid declining church attendance,
*biblical wisdom for modern parenting challenges to help you navigate raising teenagers in today’s tumultuous world, and
*wisdom for church leaders struggling with the pressure to single-handedly revitalize their ministries.
Through honest storytelling, spiritual reflection, and practical wisdom gained from their pilgrimage journey, Andy and Kara offer parents and pastors a refreshing alternative to the exhausting cycle of trying to control outcomes. Instead of paving the way for your children or congregation, learn how to walk alongside them with confidence and trust in God’s transformative grace.
Stop trying to control everything. Start experiencing the freedom and connection that comes from truly letting go.

Prayers That Avail Much For America
$14.99Lift your Prayers!
When America was first established, it was founded as a “city on a hill.” Today, our nation falls far short of that aspiration. But there is hope.“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray… then I will hear from heaven… and will heal their land.” – 2 Chron. 7:14 (NIV)
God still has a grand destiny for America. As Christians align their prayers with His vision, we will begin to see this broken country mended. This call is for all believers-not just “intercessors.”
Germaine Copeland, author of the bestselling series Prayers that Avail Much, offers this timely, easy-to use guide to praying for our country.
Christians cannot sit idly by while the nation crumbles. Lift your voice to Heaven, and petition for healing for America!
