Book Series
Stay with a question through more than one book. Each series follows a connected journey, with room to begin where your life meets the material.
Explore the purpose of a series, open its reading order, and choose a book to learn more. Publication and access details belong to the individual resource pages.
Two places to begin a deeper journey.
Family Formation
Family Formation follows love and responsibility through the lives we actually have: becoming ready to love, choosing wisely, preparing for marriage, building a household, raising people, living within complicated families, facing broken trust, loving again, and releasing the next generation. Will Bourne brings these questions before Christ with truth, grace, and care for the people who must live with our decisions. The series begins with creation and closes with faithfulness, resurrection, and New Creation.
