About</strong></h3><p><strong><a href="https://link.amazon/B0ePkhudT">Avoiding* the Hall of Mirrors or *Escaping</a></strong> explores the spiritual dynamics often at work in relational breakdown and difficulties. The wider culture is increasingly familiar and fascinated with the theme of relational dynamics, but there is rarely much conversation about what the enemy might be up to. This book uses explicit, Biblical scenarios of relational difficulty, where the enemy is also mentioned in order to keep the content on track and exegetically sound.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.christianbookfinder.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.christianbookfinder.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h2>&#128101;Who Is This Book For?</h2><p>Christians who like to think deeply and who are willing to engage in spiritual realities.</p><div><hr></div><h2>&#127749; The Inspiration Behind the Book</h2><p>Years of pastoral ministry and wider family relational difficulties led me to see patterns that made me want to reflect more deeply on what the Bible teaches about relationships.</p><div><hr></div><h2>&#128205; Where to Find It</h2><p>You can learn more or purchase the book here:</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://link.amazon/B0ePkhudT&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Amazon&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://link.amazon/B0ePkhudT"><span>Amazon</span></a></p><p>You can also explore more from this author at:</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;http://stefanliston.substack.com&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Substack&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="http://stefanliston.substack.com"><span>Substack</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h3>&#9997;&#65039; About the Author</h3><p><span class="mention-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Stef Liston&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:500614589,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;user&quot;,&quot;url&quot;:null,&quot;photo_url&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ea1415d9-520f-4c9e-8a85-5ebf3eb794aa_935x935.png&quot;,&quot;uuid&quot;:&quot;077e08b4-d70a-401e-a995-49244848e33b&quot;}" data-component-name="MentionToDOM"></span> helps to lead Revelation Church London as well as the Relational Mission family of churches. </p><div><hr></div><h2>&#129293; Closing</h2><p>At the Christian Book Finder, we highlight Christ-centered books that nourish faith and strengthen the soul.</p><p>If you are an indie author with a faith-centered book, we&#8217;d love to hear from you. &#128218;</p><div><hr></div><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.christianbookfinder.com/p/avoiding-the-hall-of-mirrors-or-escaping?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.christianbookfinder.com/p/avoiding-the-hall-of-mirrors-or-escaping?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><h2>Affiliate Disclosure</h2><p>Some links in this article may be affiliate links.

publishing in general, and Christian publishing in particular, book making is a <a href="https://www.researchandmarkets.com/report/book-publisher">$100 billion per year global industry</a>. So there is still a huge demand for books. <a href="https://www.wiseguyreports.com/reports/religious-book-market">Religious books make up $13.9 billion</a> of that, with the majority of those being Christian.</p><p>As a reader or author, you probably have a strong preference as to format. Maybe you love hardcovers, or you prefer paperbacks. Or perhaps you are a Kindle addict and love reading books on your phone or a dedicated reading device. Maybe you think, &#8220;the future is digital&#8221; or &#8220;nothing beats a physical book.&#8221;   </p><p>The statistics do not lie. <a href="https://publishers.org/news/aap-statshot-annual-report-publishing-revenues-totaled-32-5-billion-for-calendar-year-2024/">In the USA Trade</a> 37% of all revenue comes from hardbacks, 37% from paperbacks, 7% from ebooks and 7% from audiobooks. The mathematicians among you will notice that 12% is missing from this total, we can only surmise courses may well be a large part of that gap.</p><p>When it comes to religious books <a href="https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/financial-reporting/article/99667-trade-sales-were-mixed-in-2025-religion-sales-up.html">the picture is very different</a>. Hardcovers accounted for more than 62% of sales, paperbacks 17%, and digital was 11% in total.</p><p>Therefore, if you are publishing your own books, it is crucial that you release all three formats, or you will miss out on some customers. You may even find that some of your keenest readers will buy two or more different formats of your book!</p><p>But here&#8217;s a challenge for all of us. How do we ensure Christians discover good books that will help them at the moment that they need them most.  With so many books out there having the support of large commercial organizations, what hope do indie authors have of getting their books in front of potential readers?</p><p>We sometimes feel powerless to make a difference. But you would be surprised how much impact a growing community like ours can make in helping algorithms know which books to show which people.</p><h3>That is what Christian Book Finder is about.  How can you help us help all our authors and potential readers?</h3><p></p><ol><li><p><strong>There is a power in working together.</strong> As our virtual bookstore front grows then all participating authors will benefit from the increased attention.

This is to understand what people think about our work, but also because we know it is the single best way other readers may find our books. We also rejoice when others restack a quote from our books. </p><p>But are we all doing these things enough for others? If you are an author now, or hope that one day you might be one, please review unto others as you would have them review unto you. </p><div><hr></div><p class="button-wrapper"

data-component-name="MentionToDOM"></span>: My books draw on scientific training as a medical doctor, eight years of working as a psychiatrist, twenty-five years as a member of a growing church where I served on the leadership team offering pastoral care, and lived experience during a challenging decade marked by chronic illness, blood cancer, and unexpected losses.</p><p>My faith was often faint. I wondered if this was the end of my story. I was not strong enough to live for Jesus the way I wanted to. I could not change myself. And then hope reminded me:</p><p><strong>Jesus doesn&#8217;t just give us time to change. He patiently helps us grow. </strong>My journey is not one of miraculous healing, but of seeing my life crumble. </p><p>Through a slow process of healing and rebuilding, I learnt:</p><ul><li><p>The resurrection really does change everything. Just not all at once.</p></li><li><p>Healing takes time. Compassion and patience sustain us over a lifetime of change.</p></li></ul><p>In my writing I wrestle with big questions like:</p><ul><li><p>What does Jesus&#8217; resurrection mean for you?</p></li><li><p>Why is change so difficult? What causes the resistance?</p></li><li><p>Why is change so slow? How does grace lead us over a lifetime?</p></li><li><p>How do you become a Christian? How can you know if you really are one?</p></li></ul><p></p><h2>Also by Adrian Warnock</h2><h4><em><a

I wondered if this was the end of my story. I was not strong enough to live for Jesus the way I wanted to. I could not change myself. And then hope reminded me:</p><blockquote><p>Jesus doesn&#8217;t just give us time to change. He patiently helps us grow.</p></blockquote><p>My journey is not one of miraculous healing, but of seeing my life crumble. Then, through a slow process of healing and rebuilding, I learnt:</p><blockquote><p>The resurrection really does change everything. Just not all at once. </p></blockquote><p>Healing takes time. Compassion and patience sustain us over a lifetime of change.</p><p>In my writing I wrestle with big questions like: </p><ul><li><p>What does Jesus&#8217; resurrection mean for you?</p></li><li><p>Why is change so difficult?

About</strong></h3><p><em><strong><a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3c1rp">Modern Apologetics</a></strong></em>: A cumulative case for Christian theism built from the inside out. It doesn&#8217;t argue God into existence. It exposes the load-bearing assumptions of materialist frameworks; fine-tuning, the mathematical intelligibility of the universe, the hard problem of consciousness, abiogenesis and semantic information. These aren&#8217;t gaps in the science. They&#8217;re questions the framework has trained people to stop asking.</p><p>The case doesn&#8217;t conclude with God. It concludes with a door the reader didn&#8217;t know was there.</p><p>From that threshold the historical evidentialist case takes over. The only tradition making falsifiable claims about entry into human history, verified through prophecy, eyewitness testimony, and resurrection.</p><p>This isn&#8217;t a defense of God. God doesn&#8217;t need one. It&#8217;s a systematic dismantling of the alternative, written for the person who&#8217;s been told the questions don&#8217;t matter.&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.christianbookfinder.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.christianbookfinder.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h2>&#128101;Who is this Book For?</h2><p>For those scientifically minded who sense that there is a deeper meaning beneath their inquiry, and for Christians who want to strengthen their faith, as well as acquire the tools to have these conversations themselves. </p><div><hr></div><h2>&#127749; The Inspiration Behind the Book</h2><p>As someone who follows apologetics closely I never understood why Christians don&#8217;t push back when the conversation veers into scientific territory.

Boots</strong> On is a 7-week devotional journey through the book of James, written for parents, families, and small groups who want faith that shows up in everyday life. Blending Scripture from the CSB with honest storytelling and practical application, the book challenges readers to move beyond belief into action&#8212;choosing patience, mercy, and obedience in ordinary moments. </p><p>Each day includes reflection, a simple next step, discussion questions, and family-focused prompts, along with a weekly group study and Leader Guide.

As I revisited those studies, I began expanding them with stories and reflections from my everyday life as a husband and father. What started as revising old material slowly became something more personal and more urgent.<br><br>The book of James stood out because of its practical, real-world tone. James doesn&#8217;t deal in abstract theology; he speaks to patience, words, mercy, prayer, and obedience in ways that confront daily life. One verse I have often repeated to myself is, &#8220;The fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much.&#8221; That steady, active faith is what I hoped to capture.<br><br>As I wrote, I felt compelled to include discussion questions that could be used around a dinner table. This book was not written in isolation or from a quiet retreat. It was written on a couch in a house full of children, in the middle of real life. My hope is that families, men&#8217;s groups, and small groups would read it together, share honestly, and grow in vulnerability and obedience.<br><br>Ultimately, I wrote this book because I want to be a signpost pointing to Christ. Once I began, I could not stop.</p><div><hr></div><h2>&#128205; Where to Find It</h2><p>You can learn more or purchase the book here:</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://amzn.to/3OPu9Er&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Amazon Link&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://amzn.to/3OPu9Er"><span>Amazon Link</span></a></p><p>You can also explore more from this author at:</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://gritandwit.substack.com/&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Grit &amp; Wit Substack&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://gritandwit.substack.com/"><span>Grit &amp; Wit Substack</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h3>&#9997;&#65039; About the Author</h3><p><span class="mention-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Maury Wood&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:335348856,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;user&quot;,&quot;url&quot;:null,&quot;photo_url&quot;:&quot;https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gbEm!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1cb979a2-03e2-4375-8a73-0776c1f3f56c_2426x2426.jpeg&quot;,&quot;uuid&quot;:&quot;80560f58-4705-49db-a506-67fc77d8f108&quot;}" data-component-name="MentionToDOM"></span> is a husband, father of four, and writer who believes faith is meant to be lived in the middle of ordinary life. He didn&#8217;t set out to become an author as much as he felt nudged into it&#8212;first through teaching devotionals at church, then through writing that grew out of real conversations at the kitchen table.<br><br>Much of Maury&#8217;s writing is shaped by family life. It&#8217;s shaped by loud evenings, hard questions from kids, unfinished projects, and moments where patience runs thin and grace has to show up anyway. He writes from the couch more often than from a desk, and most of his best lines have come between homework help and bedtime prayers. His hope is simple: to point people toward Christ in ways that feel honest, practical, and livable.<br><br>He lives in Tennessee with his wife Karen and children, where he continues learning that the Christian life is less about standing still and more about walking faithfully, one step at a time.</p><div><hr></div><h2>&#129293; Closing</h2><p>At the Christian Substack Bookstore, we highlight Christ-centered books that nourish faith and strengthen the soul.</p><p>If you are an author with a faith-centered book, we&#8217;d love to hear from you. &#128218;</p><div><hr></div><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.christianbookfinder.com/p/faith-with-work-boots-on?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.christianbookfinder.com/p/faith-with-work-boots-on?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><h2>Affiliate Disclosure</h2><p>Some links in this article may be affiliate links.
