Ours Great Redeemer’s Praise is the first major Wesleyan hymnal to be release in thirty years. The hymnal is an 800-page compilation of hymns that includes service music for various occasions, a rich collection of creeds, prayers, and benedictions, and treasury of hymns by Charles and John Wesley.

In How Jesus Saves: Atonement for Ordinary People, Joshua McNall unpacks the meaning of Jesus’s life and death for everyday people. Through Scripture, story, and real-life applications, he brings together the primary models of atonement doctrine and offers an integrated vision for how Jesus offers the benefits of salvation to the world.

It is not simply a lengthening of life; it is a re-definition of life.
