Think Deeply // Love Widely
God calls believers to live faithfully in a way that flips the wisdom of worldly kingdoms
on its head. In a culture that has become exponentially polarized, it can be difficult to
think deeply and love widely. The NIV Upside-Down Kingdom Bible provides readers
with thoughtful, Scripture-based notes from a diverse set of trusted Christian voices
and explores difficult issues facing Christians today, with features that are honest,
nuanced, and filled with grace.
The NIV Upside-Down Kingdom Bible provides hundreds of side-column notes, full page
articles, essays, and book introductions that skillfully and thoughtfully address topics
such as: race and ethnicity, creation care, science, abortion, wealth and poverty,
gender and sexuality, politics, baptism, technology, and others.
This Bible features a beautiful two-color design and includes Zondervan’s exclusive NIV
Comfort Print® typeface for smooth reading. Expertly designed specifically to be used

experience that complements the most widely read modern-English Bible translation.

“This may just be the single most important book on modern Evangelicalism in recent years. It is bold, clear, and very well-researched.”—John MacArthur
"Some will quibble over details, but no one should miss the powerful warning in this book. We face a gathering storm, as Winston Churchill warned a century ago, but this time the enemy is inside as well as outside the gates. Every convinced and unashamed Evangelical should read, ponder, and pray over this important book."—Os Guinness
How deeply have leftist billionaires infiltrated America’s churches?
In Shepherds for Sale, Megan Basham of the Daily Wire documents how progressive powerbrokers —from George Soros, to the founder of eBay, to former members of the Obama administration— set out to change the American church. Their goal: to co-opt evangelicals for political purposes. She exposes:
· The left-wing billionaires, foundations, and think tanks that deliberately target Christian media, universities, megachurches, nonprofits, and even entire denominations
· The celebrity megachurch pastor who secretly encouraged a group of pastors to change their views on sexuality
· The revered Presbyterian theologian who backed a congregation rebelling against his own denomination
These are just a glimpse into the compromises and astroturf campaigns Basham uncovers. Many evangelical leaders are pushing their members to “whisper” about sexual sins, reconsider the importance of abortion, lament the effects of climate change, and repent of “perpetuating systemic racism.” And in exchange for toeing a left-wing line, many of those church leaders and institutions have received cash, career jumps, prestige, and praise. Basham brings the receipts, and names names.
A rigorously reported exposé, Shepherds for Sale is a warning of what happens when the church trusts the world’s wisdom instead of Scripture.

'Country music artist Smith debuts with a sensitive and moving recollection of
his path through grief. . .In stark, intimate prose, the author candidly renders
the realities of suffering while articulating a moving message of renewal.
Those seeking a faith-based path through grief will find this instructive and
affecting.' -- Publishers Weekly
Like a River, a triumphant story of new life birthed out of tragedy, will teach
readers how to face their failures, confront their pain, and connect with
God—the true source of life.
On June 4th, 2019, country music singer Granger Smith was enjoying a final evening
with his kids before heading to Nashville for the CMT Music Awards and his next tour.
While helping his daughter London with her gymnastics, his youngest son fell into their
pool. Granger did everything he could to get to him, but he was too late. River
drowned, and Granger's world shattered.
The days, weeks, and months that followed River's death sent Granger on a dark and
painful journey. Every time he closed his eyes, he replayed the horrific event in his
mind, and every time he opened his computer, he was bombarded by the critique and
criticism of people who blamed him for the accident.
Despite his best effort to get back on stage with a smile and song, it was all a façade.
On the inside he was dying. Fortunately, that's not how his story ended. And now he is
compelled to help people all around the world find strength, peace, and hope on the
other side of tragedy.
1. Like a River, life is full of twists and turns.
2. Like a River, people pollute our world with their critique and criticism.
3. Like a River, tragic events keep us dammed up.
4. But like a river, we can find the courage to keep moving downstream.
Rivers don't run on their own strength; they flow from their source. When we try to
keep going on our own, we won't make it, but when we connect to the greater source,
HarperCollins UK - September 2024 HCCP
we will find the strength and the faith to keep living after loss. This triumphant story of
new life birthed out of death will inspire every reader to live Like a River.

If you've ever waited on the Lord for something—direction, answers, resolution,
strength—you know how challenging it can be. Even when we fully believe that God
sees and hears our requests, if we're honest, we sometimes view waiting as wasted
time. But, what if it's not? What if waiting is the means God uses to make us more like
Christ? What if there are some pieces of God's character that we’ll only learn while we
wait?
If that's true… how do we lean in? What lessons do these seasons hold? How do we
keep hoping and believing what we know to be true?
In this six-week study, you’ll explore five biblical narratives that put God's faithfulness
to waiting people on display and help you direct your gaze from the answers you're
seeking to the God who meets you while you wait.
This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience,
including:
1. The study guide itself—with discussion and reflection questions, video notes, and
a leader's guide.
