The Disciples Bookshelf

The Disciple’s Bookshelf exists to equip our church family with trusted, Christ-centered reading that moves us toward the mission and vision God has given us. Each recommended book is chosen to inspire growth, spark meaningful conversation, and encourage practical steps of discipleship in daily life. At times these books will align with current teaching series—such as “Seek Like Jesus,” “Reach Like Jesus,” and “Build Like Jesus”—and at other times they will simply reflect the broader direction (O.W.N.) we are pursuing together as a church. Our hope is that these resources help every believer take intentional steps toward Outreach, Worship, and Nurture.

Discover where God is leading us in 2026—The Disciple’s Bookshelf is your invitation to grow deeper, think bigger, and move with purpose. Pick up one or all of these books and grow your faith in step with our church’s vision.

Habits of Grace

David Mathis’ Habits of Grace shows how simple, daily rhythms—hearing God’s voice through His Word, having God’s ear in prayer, and belonging to His body in fellowship—become channels through which we regularly meet with and enjoy Jesus. Rather than offering a checklist, Mathis invites readers into a lifestyle shaped by grace, where spiritual disciplines are not burdens but gifts. As these habits take root, they open us to God’s ongoing work of renewing our hearts, strengthening our faith, and deepening our joy in Him. If you long for a richer, more resilient walk with Christ, this book will help you build the kinds of practices that draw you closer to the Lord day after day. 

Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life

Donald Whitney’s Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life shows how intentional practices—such as Bible intake, prayer, worship, service, and more—become God-given means for growing in godliness. Rather than treating these disciplines as legalistic duties, Whitney frames them as pathways to experiencing the presence, power, and satisfaction of Christ. As believers embrace these rhythms, they cultivate maturity, clarity, and spiritual strength that anchor them in every season of life. If you desire a deeper walk with God, this book will equip you with time-tested habits that open your life to His transforming grace.
