There may be no more powerful desire in the human heart than to be loved. And not just loved, but loved anyway. In spite of what we've done or left undone, in spite of the ways we have failed or floundered. We long for an unconditional, lavish love that we know intrinsically we don't deserve.If you are tired, sad, yet always longing, bestselling author Jared C. Wilson has incredible news for you: that kind of love actually exists, and it is actually something you can experience--whether or not you're in a romantic relationship. In his signature reflective, conversational, and often humorous style, Wilson unpacks 1 Corinthians 13 to show us what real love looks like. Through engaging stories and touching anecdotes, he paints a picture of an extravagant God who not only puts the desire for love into our very souls but fulfills those desires in striking, life-changing ways.

In Gospel-Driven Ministry, Jared Wilson looks at the qualifications for the pastorate, addressing the notion of a call to ministry and how to identify the marks of maturity and affirm a call.

From a 'unique and distinctive' (Kyle Idleman) writer who 'make[s] us appreciate the greatness and grandeur of the gospel' (J. I. Packer) comes a warning about how the 'father of lies' attempts to mislead us, packaging destructive ideas in the guise of spiritual truth.

"Love. It's that thing everyone talks about but very few will ever truly put into action. It's the fuel with which we are called to live, and it's the very reason Jesus' body was brutally broken upon that splintered cross. It's unbeatable, unrestricted, and hands down the greatest attribute of God. It will transform the way you see life, and it will radically invade the way you see others. The question is, have you discovered and harnessed it the way God intended?In Love Is Oxygen, you will engage with the reality of God's love as something you can know and personally experience. This love transcends fear and circumstances, and it pushes us into places we never imagined. After all, living God's love is like breathing-it gives life as we breathe it in . . . and then we can't help but breathe it out to the people around us."

In The Gospel-Driven Church, author and pastor Jared C. Wilson shows how to lead a culture shift in a church from a focus on numerical success to the metrics of grace.

While pastoring for the past fifteen years, Jared Wilson has become known in contemporary evangelicalism for his passionate, gospel-centered writing and teaching. Following Wilson's well-received publication of Gospel Wakefulness, he writes Gospel Deeps as a "next step" to establishing the need for astonishment, which begins by looking at the astonishing things God has done in and through Christ. Wilson holds up the gospel like a diamond and examines it facet by facet, demonstrating the riches of its implications. This book serves as a valuable contribution to the emerging canon of gospel-centered literature, in the spirit of John Piper's Pleasures of God and Tim Keller's emphasis on a "robust gospel," and continues in the glory-reveling legacy left by Jonathan Edwards, John Owen, and the like. The distinctiveness of Gospel Deeps is found in Wilson's winsome and frequently ecstatic writing voice, as well as his unique approach to showcasing the gospel's beauty.

Following up where The Storytelling God left off, this book by Jared Wilson examines Jesus's miracles as recorded in the Gospels, defending their historicity, explaining their meaning, and highlighting their significance for Christians today.
