New Book Invites Women to Break Free from Financial Unease and Embrace Their True Worth

ATLANTA, Feb. 10, 2026—Although 94% of women anticipate being personally responsible for their finances at some point in their lives, only 28% feel empowered to take action. Bethany Frymire can empathize. In her debut book, Women of Worth: A Faith-Based Guide to Financial Wisdom (Harvest House Publishers), Frymire sits down with readers like a friend bringing a cup of coffee, dismantling the shame often associated with feeling ill-equipped to make wise financial decisions. Written with compelling and personal stories to illustrate her points, Frymire speaks directly to women who feel unworthy or unsure.

“This book doesn’t just tell you what to do,” said Kirsten Watson, author, speaker, Paterson LifePlan Guide, and author of the foreword in Women of Worth. “It reminds you who you are. This book isn’t just about money. It’s about courage. It’s about calling. It’s about standing up in your life, however messy or uncertain it may feel, and saying, ‘Yes, Lord. Use me here. Use me now.’”

Frymire’s authority on the subject wasn’t just learned in a classroom or as a financial advisor; it was forged in the fire of experience. In Women of Worth, she recounts several impactful stories including surviving Hurricane Katrina just months after buying a home with her husband and subsequently losing all of their earthly possessions. That experience taught her that while money can be a tool, a test and a testimony, it is never a measure of self-worth.

“For women who have ever doubted themselves, I see you,” says Frymire. “If faith, identity, finances and professional or at-home roles seem to be a challenge, join me as we walk through this together. My hope is that women come away realizing their worth and learning to confidently tackle any financial unease.”

Frymire’s affable writing speaks directly to the heart, teaching financial wisdom through stories but also moving past spreadsheets to ask the questions that drive behavior:

• What unspoken messages guide my actions and views of myself?
• What is God calling me to?
• How do I find the courage to faithfully follow God’s plans for me and my life?

For Frymire, self-worth begins intentionally with purpose and encouragement. She invites women to discover who God has called them to be and then apply that wisdom and confidence to their finances.

With practical insight into budgeting, reducing debt, investing wisely, and living generously, readers will come away with immediate, actionable strategies. Written in straightforward language, Frymire invites readers into her own story with prompts to help direct their path. Furthermore, as a mother and financial advisor, she equips readers to guide the next generation in biblical financial wisdom with a dedicated resource on how to teach children about money.

Women of Worth: A Faith-Based Guide to Financial Wisdom (Harvest House, ISBN: 0736993304) is available March 10, 2026. Paperback: $14.99.

Bethany Frymire is a financial advisor for Blue Trust’s Everyday Steward® division and serves clients who seek objective advice based on biblical principles through financial planning, investment management, strategic giving, estate planning, and trust services. Frymire earned her bachelor of science in marketing from the University of Florida. She is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional and a Certified Kingdom Advisor® (CKA®).

While we live in a culture that tells us to look for happiness and fulfillment in ourselves, there is only one path to true contentment and satisfaction—walking with Jesus.

We’ve all felt the sting of disappointment, unmet expectations, and even grief. Sometimes it seems like we should just give up hope on things getting better. Our hearts are prone to sinful desires and seeking things that ultimately disappoint, but we were created with longings that only Christ can satisfy.

In You Are Satisfied, Joanna Kimbrel guides women on a 40-day journey designed to bring them to God’s Word to find peace, encouragement, and wisdom in the middle of life’s highs and lows. Each week focuses on a different way God shapes and satisfies our desires by exploring themes such as God’s promises, provision, plan, and presence. As we grow in our knowledge and love of God, he will transform our desires. If we hunger and thirst for righteousness, we will be satisfied.

• Women will discover hope in challenging circumstances and encouragement to deepen their faith.
• Easy-to-follow 40-day format includes Scripture readings, reflections, and application questions and is suitable for individuals or small groups.
• Part of the Gospel Truth for Women series, helping busy women of all ages and stages to identify their struggles and go to Scripture to meet God.

February 2026 | LISLE, IL— InterVarsity Press (IVP) is pleased to announce the release of Honest Conversations: Seeing Race, Speaking Truth, an eight-session streaming video series that invites Christians into courageous conversations about race, justice, and reconciliation.

IVP publisher Terumi Echols said, “The gospel invites us into honest, faithful engagement with the realities of our world. Honest Conversations creates space for that work, helping Christians see more clearly, listen more carefully, and speak truth with humility and courage.”

Hosted by pastor and author Travis Collins, and featuring a diverse group of pastors, scholars, and ministry leaders, the series blends biblical teaching, personal storytelling, and practical wisdom to address some of the most pressing questions about race and reconciliation facing the church today. Each episode explores a different dimension of racial justice and unity—moving from history to hope, from lament to action, and from individual good intentions to structural change.

“Over the past few years, I’ve learned a great deal—and that learning continues. The guest mentors I had the privilege of interviewing graciously opened my eyes to so many important truths,” Collins said. “I long for all of us to better understand what fairness truly looks like and what genuine unity really means, regardless of the hue of our skin or the accent of our tongues. And I invite you to join me on this meaningful pilgrimage of learning and growth.”

On the morning of November 11, 1995, Patrice Karst woke from a dream with the words “God Made Easy” appearing before her. From this unexpected moment comes a divinely inspired book that invites readers to rediscover the wonder of God.

Millions of pages have been written and published about God, and the length and complexity of these pages can be overwhelming. In God Made Easy, originally published in 1997, bestselling author Patrice Karst (The Invisible String) uses simple, user-friendly language to invite readers of all religions, spiritual paths, and faiths (or those with no faith at all) to embrace the universal truth that God (called by many different names) is everywhere—eager to listen, ready to answer, and accessible to us all. This truth runs deep in Patrice’s heart, and her warm, conversational style will appeal to those searching for answers beyond traditional religious dogma. With a beautiful full-color design and new introduction and author’s note, this book is ideal for gift-giving or personal reflection—a small but mighty celebration of the Divine that readers can turn to again and again to remind themselves they are not (and never have been!) alone.

“But as for me, I am like a flourishing olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the faithfulness of God forever and ever.” Psalm 52:8

Nashville, TN, February 10, 2026 – In a world grappling with relentless headlines and widespread turmoil, bestselling author and renowned Bible teacher Christine Caine releases her timely, transformative new book this week, The Faith to Flourish: God’s Design for a Rooted, Resilient, and Fruitful Life (Nelson Books/Thomas Nelson). As more people turn to faith for stability and hope, Caine draws on her global ministry experience and steadfast belief to offer readers a roadmap for spiritual flourishing amid life’s most daunting challenges. Packed with practical insights and biblical wisdom, this powerful guide equips readers not only to weather life’s storms but also to grow stronger, more resilient, and deeply rooted in their faith.

Inspired by the biblical symbolism of the olive tree, The Faith to Flourish shows how to build a faith that can endure life’s storms, like the olive tree, known for its extraordinary resilience, thrives and produces fruit despite scorching heat, rocky soil, and long droughts. With roots extending deep into the ground to absorb nourishment even in the toughest seasons, the olive tree remains a powerful symbol of faith that endures and prospers through every challenge.

Caine provides practical guidance on recognizing spiritual stagnation, understanding God’s process of pruning for restoration, and cultivating inner peace and joy through deliberate shifts in perspective. It serves as a transformational guide for anyone aiming to move from a season of languishing to one of vibrant growth and fruitfulness.

“I wrote this book because I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed by life and to question if it’s possible to keep going, let alone flourish,” says Caine. “It’s so important to me because I’ve seen firsthand how God’s love and truth can transform our hardest seasons into unexpected growth and fruitfulness. My hope is that every reader will discover that they truly can thrive, no matter what they face.”

Roadmap to Reconciliation 2.0: Moving Communities into Unity, Wholeness and Justice by Brenda Salter McNeil

We can see the injustice and inequality in our lives and in the world. We are ready to rise up. But how, exactly, do we do this? How does one reconcile? What we need is a clear sense of direction.

Based on her extensive consulting experience with churches, colleges, and organizations, Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil has created a roadmap to show us the way. She guides us through the common topics of discussion and past the bumpy social terrain and political boundaries that will arise.

Welcoming the Stranger: Justice, Compassion & Truth in the Immigration Debate by Matthew Soerens, Jenny Yang, and Leith Anderson

Immigration is one of the most complicated issues of our time. Voices on all sides argue strongly for action and change. Christians find themselves torn between the desire to uphold laws and the call to minister to the vulnerable.

In this book, World Relief immigration experts Matthew Soerens and Jenny Yang move beyond the rhetoric to offer a Christian response to immigration. They put a human face on the issue and tell stories of immigrants’ experiences in and out of the system. With careful historical understanding and thoughtful policy analysis, they debunk myths and misconceptions about immigration and show the limitations of the current immigration system. Ultimately, they point toward immigration reform that is compassionate, sensible, and just as they offer concrete ways for you and your church to welcome and minister to your immigrant neighbors.

Tuesdays at 12 p.m. Central, starting September 1 (11 weeks)

Compassion (&) Conviction: The AND Campaign’s Guide to Faithful Civic Engagement by Justin Giboney, Michael Wear, and Chris Butler

Have you ever felt too progressive for conservatives, but too conservative for progressives?

The authors of this book represent the AND Campaign, which exists to educate and organize Christians for faithful civic and cultural engagement. They insist that not only are we called to love our neighbors through the political process but also that doing so requires us to transcend the binary way the debates are usually framed. In simple, understandable language, they lay out the biblical case for political engagement and help Christians navigate the complex world of politics with integrity, from political messaging and the politics of race to protests, advocacy, and more.

SPIRITUAL FORMATION TRACK

Tuesdays at 12 p.m. Central, starting February 19 (10 weeks)

The Good and Beautiful God: Falling in Love with the God Jesus Knows by James Bryan Smith

We all have ideas that we tell ourselves about God and how he works in our lives. Some are true—but many are false. James Bryan Smith believes those thoughts determine not only who we are, but how we live. In fact, Smith declares, the most important thing about a person is what they think about God. The path to spiritual transformation begins here.

Turning to the Gospels, Smith invites you to put your ideas to the test to see if they match up with what Jesus himself reveals about God. Once you’ve discovered the truth in Scripture, Smith leads you through a process of spiritual formation that includes specific activities aimed at making these new narratives real in your body and soul as well as your mind.

Tuesdays at 12 p.m. Central, starting April 30 (11 weeks)

Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life by Tish Harrison Warren

Framed around one typical day, this book explores life through the lens of liturgy—small practices and habits that form us. In each chapter, Warren considers a common daily experience, like making the bed, brushing her teeth, and losing her keys. Drawing from the diversity of her life as a campus minister, Anglican priest, friend, wife, and mother, Warren opens up a practical theology of the everyday.

Tuesdays at 12 p.m. Central, starting July 16 (6 weeks)

The Gift of Being Yourself: The Sacred Call to Self-Discovery by David G. Benner

In this exploration of Christian identity, psychologist and spiritual director David G. Benner illuminates the spirituality of self-discovery. He exposes the false selves that you may hide behind and calls you to discover the true self that emerges from your uniqueness in Christ. Freeing you from illusions about yourself, Benner shows that self-understanding leads to the fulfillment of your God-given destiny and vocation.

Tuesdays at 12 p.m. Central, starting August 27 (13 weeks)

A Long Obedience in the Same Direction: Discipleship in an Instant Society by Eugene H. Peterson

Since Eugene Peterson first wrote this spiritual formation classic more than forty years ago, hundreds of thousands of Christians have been inspired by its call to deeper discipleship.

As a society, we are still obsessed with the immediate, but Peterson’s time-tested prescription for discipleship remains the same—a long obedience in the same direction.

Long obedience requires a deepening life of prayer. Peterson finds encouragement for today’s pilgrims in the Songs of Ascents (Psalms 120–134), sung by travelers on their way to worship in Jerusalem. With prophetic and pastoral wisdom, Peterson shows how the psalms teach us to grow in worship, service, joy, work, happiness, humility, community, blessing, and more.

Abilene, TX —Everyone used to think that kids would come back to church when they grew up. But, after they left for college, they never looked back. Every year, hundreds of churches that were once filled with young families are closing their doors forever. What happened?

Instead of bridging generational language gaps, many churches have insisted on maintaining a one-size-fits-all approach to ministry – usually optimized for older generations. But, it doesn’t have to be this way.

Speaking Their Language will lead you through a research-based, field-tested process to help you translate the never-changing truth of Jesus into the ever-changing language of younger generations. Your congregation should be laser-focused about who you’re trying to reach and have a viable plan for how you’ll do it.

While many church revitalization books offer best practices, this book focuses on the best process—because it leads to right-sized outcomes that fit your context.

Jason Tucker (MDiv., DMin.) is the lead pastor of Tower Hill Church, in Red Bank NJ, which has grown into one of the largest Presbyterian churches in the state – through a turnaround process he shares in Speaking Their Language. He believes that any church, regardless of size, can use this research-based, field-tested, process to grow healthier and reach younger generations for Christ. He has worked with dozens of churches (of all sizes), and denominational groups across the country to help them develop their own renewal plans. His church revitalization podcast, The Reclaimed Leader, has been a go-to resource for many pastors and change-leaders since 2017.
