Can we break free to become the joyful and prophetic people God calls us to be? Trek along with wilderness guide Todd Wynward as he “rewilds” the Jesus Way. Seek the feral foundations of Scripture and the lessons that the prophets and disciples gleaned from wilderness testing. Packed with inspiring stories of how contemporary people and groups are caring for the land and each other, Rewilding the Way issues a call to action. Read about how reskilling and local food covenants are transforming churches, and how place-based activism and creative housing are nurturing communities. Learn from those who are recovering from affluenza, replacing visions of personal wealth with the commonwealth of the earth and restoring their humble place in the community of creation. Do you despair about life on our changing planet? Join the hopeful band of seekers of God and makers of change who are rewilding the Way. Watch an interview with author Todd Wynward:

An extensively illustrated day-by-day adventure that tells the stories of pioneers and cowboys, gold rushes, and saloon shoot-outs on America’s frontier. Beginning in the nineteenth century, the lure of land rich in minerals, fertile for farming, and plentiful with buffalo bred an all-out obsession with heading westward. The Wild West: 365 Days takes you back to these booming frontier towns that became the stuff of American legend, breeding characters such as Butch Cassidy and Jesse James. Prize-winning journalist and historian Michael Wallis spins a colorful narrative, separating myth from fact, in 365 vignettes. Learn the stories of Davy Crockett, Wild Bill Hickok, and Annie Oakley; travel to the O.K. Corral and Dodge City; ride with the Pony Express; and witness the invention of the Colt revolver. Included throughout are images drawn from Robert G. McCubbin’s extensive collection of Western memorabilia, encompassing rare books, photographs, ephemera, and artifacts, including Billy the Kid’s knife.
After a series of personal hits, photographer, Nicole Karr, secluded herself in the heart of the desert, taking photos to show the beauty of the vast expanse of the country she loves and loves sharing through her photographs. Just as she settled into the life she chose, a dust cloud in the form of Richard Hunter enters her domain to disrupt all she has created and tear down the wall she built around herself. The memories Nicole has refused to acknowledge as her life is way too close to the surface for this invasion of her sanctuary. How was she going to deal with this event known only to her as Richard Hunter? The only choice she has is to run for the closest oasis. But as fate would have it, Richard refuses to give up on the assignment their boss has given to him. He follows her into the vast unknown area just to become lost and gets himself in the worst of trouble. Injured and unconscious, Nicole has no choice but to put her plans of running away aside to step in and rescue the fool. Can she accept the new feelings he has stirred? Can she do what has been asked of her, to leave the home she has created, even for the short time that has been asked of her, to investigate new territories and the feelings lurking in the depth of heart, not even expecting to have her past pull itself out of the pit to reveal a very different reality?

The Christian Writers’ Coach: How to Get the Most Out of a Writers Conference is the first in a series of books specially designed by Northwest Christian Writers Association writers. It is our goal to give you best-practices information and to put tools in your tool belt to help you succeed as a writer. We started this book with five bios of successful people in the industry. People who started out just like you and are making it in the world of publishing.

This book is designed as a primer for writers conferences. After the bios, the book is divided into three parts:

  • Before a conference
  • During a conference
  • After a conference

In each section, your questions will be answered in articles on how to be prepared and how to put your best foot forward. Then we have provided links to the most helpful resources on the web. We hope you find this a fun and interactive research tool.

God created you for a purpose, and he gifted you with the ability to use words to inspire others and to shape culture. It is our prayer that as you read this book, you will find new tools that will alleviate the mystery of publishing and help you fulfill the dream you were called to.
