  Sin Of Empathy

  $22.00

  The so-called virtue of empathy is the greatest rhetorical tool of manipulation in the 21st century. Because love is a real virtue, empathy’s power is in posing as selfless care for victims. A sad polar bear paces as David Attenborough informs you that the family suburban is melting the ice caps. “Jesus was an asylum seeker!” the sign reads at an Open Borders Rally. A forlorn Bruno wishes he too could change in the women’s locker room, a place he’s always known he belonged. “My mom said if we don’t go she’ll be just devastated.” When you reject the sin of empathy, you reject the manipulation of the media, the manipulation of family and friends, and most importantly, the manipulation of your own heart.

  Leadership And Emotional Sabotage

  $17.95

  Who are you when the teeth come out?

  For every true act of leadership, there is an equal and monstrous act of sabotage.

  Our leaders have been entirely routed by the agitated and the anxious. These emotional tyrannies manifest themselves in local libraries, HR cubicles, elder meetings, and at your Thanksgiving dinners.

  In this book Professor Joe Rigney seeks to recover the nerve of old that steadied leaders to make tough calls. The nerve that braces them when sabotage comes–because it will. The nerve that has more fun than its enemies.

  Cheer up, there’s no way out but through.

  Strangely Bright : Can You Love God And Enjoy This World (Revised)

  $14.95

  Drink your wine with a merry heart.

  The Spiritual disciplines are crucial for Christians to grow in their faith: prayer, fasting, worship, and service. But one spiritual discipline you will not hear from many pulpits is the practice of delighting in God’s good gifts.

  Pumpkin crunch cake. A really big tree. Johnny Cash. Baseball in October. Summer rain.

  In this short book, Joe Rigney offers a biblical vision that bypasses both ingratitude and idolatry and instead enjoys God in everything and enjoys everything in God. As we fix our eyes upon the Father of lights, the Giver of every good and perfect gift, we will notice that the things of earth grow strangely bright.

  This edition featuring a new foreword by Douglas Wilson.
