Have You Forgotten Who You Really Are?  New Book from John and Angel Beeson Explores True Identity

Trading Faces is an important book for our cultural moment. John writes as an experienced pastor and Angel as a wise counselor. Together, they expose false identities, leading readers to Christ and the revolutionary new life he offers. John and Angel’s work is biblical, honest, vulnerable, and worshipful. I believe it will help many find freedom and joy in Christ.
– Kevin P. Halloran, author of When Prayer Is a Struggle

GRAND RAPIDS, MI —  In their new book, Trading Faces: Removing the Masks that Hide Your God-Given Identity, authors John and Angel Beeson face the topic of identity head-on. Whether through vocation, family, marriage, political party, gender, economic status, or even what grocery store we frequent, the Beesons show how we lean toward these identity substitutes, beginning from childhood to adulthood. As a counselor and pastor, this husband-and-wife-team walk with people who wear masks and are engaged in identity battles every day. In Trading Faces, they bring personal experiences and  life stories, so readers will know they are not alone.

“To answer the question “Who am I?” is to set the true north of your life. Who you are in Christ is unchangeable and nonnegotiable. Understanding that your true identities are in Christ allows you to step into being who you were made to be and living how you were designed to live.” says the Beesons.

In Trading Faces, the Beesons deep dive into ten identities that masquerade as truth, and give readers help and hope that they exchange those false labels for true identities.  From shame to good works to individuality to careers, they leave no identity stone unturned in the life of the reader. Each of the chapters end in a heart -felt prayer. Trading Faces also includes other helpful resources, like a Now What? section helping readers know what to do next, and an appendix, Our Biblical Identities, that breaks down who we are collectively, and what we are called to as believers.  Perfect for individual or small group study, Trading Faces is a life-changing and  life-giving resource  for the times we are in, when knowing who we are is more important than ever.

John Beeson is the co-lead pastor at New Life Bible Fellowship in Oro Valley, Arizona. His previous work includes Blogging for God’s Glory in a Click-Bait World with Benjamin Vrbicek.

Angel Beeson is the founder of and a counselor at Whole Hope Christian Counseling. More information can be found at www.thebeehive.live.

Beloved pastor and bestselling author Dr. Charles Stanley was dedicated to knowing Christ and making Him known. In his final book, TRUSTING GOD WITH TODAY: 365 DEVOTIONS (Thomas Nelson; hardcover; October 17, 2023), Dr. Stanley inspires readers to see how God transforms our hearts and lives when we trust Him with an unknown future.

Dr. Stanley was guided by Biblical truths. He believed that God’s Word is full of promises and guidance, and that “trusting God means looking beyond what we can see to what God sees.” Dr. Stanley also knew that trusting God in difficult times can be a challenge. “When things are going our way, trusting God is easy,” writes Dr. Stanley in TRUSTING GOD WITH TODAY. “But when overwhelming battles, painful trials, unmet needs, or lost hopes assail us, we may be tempted to ask, can we still trust Him?”

In TRUSTING GOD WITH TODAY Dr. Stanley resoundingly answers yes, patiently guiding readers to trust and believe in God’s love and rest in His purpose. With this daily devotional, readers will work to grow that trust in God day by day, bringing greater joy and peace than we could ever find leaning on our own understanding. “Every challenge presents an opportunity for the Lord to display His faithfulness and love,” said Dr. Stanley. “Rejoice that God faces the coming days with you forevermore.”

Dr. Charles F. Stanley was the founder of In Touch Ministries and pastor emeritus of First Baptist Church Atlanta, Georgia, where he served more than fifty years. He was also a New York Times bestselling author of more than seventy books. Until his death in 2023, Dr. Stanley’s mission was to get the gospel to “as many people as possible, as quickly as possible, as clearly as possible, as irresistibly as possible, through the power of the Holy Spirit to the glory of God.” This is a calling that In Touch Ministries continues to pursue by transmitting his teachings as widely and effectively as possible. Dr. Stanley’s messages can be heard daily on In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley broadcasts on television, radio, and satellite networks and stations around the world; on the internet at intouch.org and through In Touch+; and via the In Touch Messenger Lab. Excerpts from Dr. Stanley’s inspiring messages are also published in the award-winning In Touch devotional magazine.

October 3, 2023—Paraclete Press announces the release of All Creation Waits Children’s Edition: The Advent Mystery of New Beginnings (Hardcover Book: ISBN 978-1-64060-828-3 | October 3, 2023 | 64 pp | 8.5X9.5 | $20.99) from bestselling author Gayle Boss: a stunningly illustrated picture book edition of her beloved Advent book, All Creation Waits. Information about the November East Coast Book Tour, events in the Grand Rapids area, free resources, and more is at https://allcreationwaits.com/

Children open the book’s double-page spreads as they would the doors on an Advent calendar. Each day of Advent a different animal shows children its own amazing way to meet the dark and cold. Wood Frog freezes into a frog-shaped cube of ice! For six months Painted Turtle doesn’t breathe! Woodchuck can’t be wakened, even if shaken! With each creature, children hear the refrain: The dark is not an end. It’s a door. It’s the way a new beginning comes. Here is the ancient truth of Advent enacted in the lives of 24 common woodland animals and culminating in the birth of the Human One who perfectly lived that truth. In an often chaotic “holiday season,” children ages 5-10 will learn to slow down and wait with all creation, delighting in the lilting poetic lines, the vivid descriptions of animals’ winter lives, and the original watercolor paintings by award-winning artist Sharon Spitz that convey the radiance of each creature.

“Saying I loved All Creation Waits is an understatement. It moved me and inspired me. My family will be using it to welcome in Christmas, not just once, but for years to come. As a parent, I love the space the book leaves for my own kids’ responses and the prompts that are truly at a child’s level. It’s a delight and my new go-to recommendation for families.” —Meredith Miller, pastor and author of Woven: Nurturing a Faith Your Kids Don’t Have to Heal From

“This book is at once gorgeous and glorious, quiet as falling snow, and still as a hibernating animal. It captures the magic and promise of Advent in words and pictures—reminding us, gently but powerfully, of God’s love for all His creatures—including us.”
—Sy Montgomery, National Book Award Finalist and New York Times bestselling author of How to Be a Good Creature

“A gorgeous exploration in words and pictures of animals in winter, life in darkness, beauty in nature, the wonder of the world…”
—Deborah Heiligman, author of Charles and Emma: The Darwins’ Leap of Faith, a National Book Award Finalist

“All Creation Waits is an Advent book as exquisite as it is unusual. In a season which often centers on human stories and celebrates the triumph of light, this enthralling book directs our gaze elsewhere: to our animal kin and what they can teach us about stillness, waiting, and the generative power of darkness. Poetic, wise, stunningly illustrated, and rich in mystery, All Creation Waits is an ideal Advent companion for curious children (and grownups too). I can hardly wait to share it with my own family.”
—Laura Alary, author of Look! A Child’s Guide to Advent and Christmas and many other books

Gayle Boss writes in Michigan, where she was born and raised. Her life-long love of animals and her immersion in spiritual texts and practices have melded in poems and essays that explore how relationships with animals specifically, and an attentive presence in the natural world generally, restore us to our deepest selves. The mother of two grown sons, she lives in Grand Rapids with her husband.

Sharon Spitz is an illustrator and a graphic designer currently based between Berlin and Haifa. She was the winner of the 2021 Jewish Children’s Book Award.
