The Son of God was crucified, died and buried, and He lay in the tomb for three days-until He walked out shining like the sun. In a culture in which history is erased or rewritten at will, the existence of an empty tomb matters. Why?Because if the tomb is empty-then anything is possible.In his first book, Joby Martin, Lead Pastor of The Church of Eleven22, dives deep into scripture and traces the story of salvation by highlighting the seven mountains throughout scripture where God manifests himself. As he describes each encounter with God, Martin shows us how the interaction on each mountain laid the groundwork for the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, and shows what God revealed about Himself in the process. He illuminates seven familiar passages, unveiling how God's plan for Christ's sacrifice is threaded throughout scripture, and shows why Christ's resurrection-impossible, unbelievable-means that nothing is too hard for our God. Ultimately, he asks readers, Do you live every day of your life as if the tomb is empty-or as though Jesus is still hanging on that cross?Written with New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin, If the Tomb is Empty is an insightful and spiritually rich examination of what the miracle of Christ's resurrection means for all of us.

Miracles are impossible. They defy explanation. They can't be real. And yet, miracles surround us every day. Where we face something that we can't fix and run out of options. Where the limited and finite ability of man ends and unlimited and infinite will of God begins. Where what is impossible with man is possible with God.In Anything is Possible, Joby Martin, bestselling author and Lead Pastor of The Church of Eleven 22, examines nine miracles of Jesus-the miracle at the wedding of Cana, the story of the cripple at the pool of Bethesda, the feeding of the 5,000, the raising of Lazarus-and shows how each teaches us something unique about how God wants to relate to us.Written with New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin, Anything is Possible is an insightful and spiritually rich look the miracles of Christ, and how the greatest miracles of all changed everything. Ultimately, he encourages readers that God still does miracles today, that believers have access to the incredible power that raised Jesus from the dead, and, ultimately, reminds us not to seek miracles themselves, but the one who performs them.

"My entire life I have been less fat and more fat, but never not fat," writes Rabia Chaudry, who was raised with a lot of love. And that love looked like food. Delicious Pakistani dishes-fresh roti, chaat, pakoras, and shorba-and also Pizza Hut, Dairy Queen, and an abundance of American processed foods, as her family discovered its adopted country through its (fast) food. In Fatty Fatty Boom Boom, Chaudry chronicles the dozens of times she tried and failed to achieve what she was told was her ideal weight. The truth is, she always loved food too much to hold a grudge against it.This memoir is at once an ode to Pakistani cuisine, including Chaudry's favourite recipes; a love letter to her Muslim family, both here and in Lahore; and a courageously honest portrait of a woman making peace with a body that gets the job done but refuses to meet the expectations of others.

From bestselling author and pastor Joby Martin, a straight-talk, no-nonsense guide to becoming the man God calls you to be. We've all seen the headlines. Masculinity is in crisis. Men are lost. What's the matter with men? We are confused about what masculinity is and what roles men play in our culture.Manhood, says Joby Martin, is harder than ever because we have forgotten what true masculinity looks like. Real, Biblical manhood is not about driving big trucks, having the biggest guns, or hunting the biggest buck. (Though he's a big fan of all of those, truth be told.) True men of God surrender themselves before the cross, serve and lead their families, put on the full armor of God, and stand guard against the lies that threaten to tear our churches and our culture apart. In this new book, Pastor Joby walks through what the Bible means when it says, 'be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong, and let all that you do be done in love' (1 Corinthians 16:13). He guides readers through what scripture says about who men are, how they should act, and what it means to be a man in today's culture, and he asks tough questions about how God calls men to respond. Stand Firm and Act Like Men is a call for men to rediscover Biblical manhood in their churches and cities, and to love, serve, and support their families and one another.
