Your wedding was perfect. But between saying the vows and actually living your marriage ... there’s a whole world no one really prepares you for.
Pastor Mike Novotny remembers that world well. He and his wife stepped into marriage with deep love—but almost no shared expectations about money, communication, sex, family, faith, chores, or even what “being sick” really meant. Like most couples, they learned a lot by bumping into things they never saw coming.
This book is the guide the Novotnys wish they’d had, so Pastor Mike wrote it with you in mind. From mismatched assumptions about chores and money to navigating in-laws, intimacy, and the mysterious way your spouse loads the dishwasher, this book helps you bridge the gaps, build connection, and enjoy being married.
Whether you’re a young couple or someone who loves them, this is the how-to guide every newlywed needs to survive—and genuinely love—year one.

Listen to Shaunti's interview with Carrie Abbott: When Hurting People Come to Church, Part 1 and When Hurting People Come to Church, Part 2
People are hurting at a scale we’ve never seen. They’re dealing with an onslaught of issues like anxiety, grief, mental illness, family troubles, and hopelessness. Pastors and counselors can’t see everyone in need. This book can help.
Based on national research with more than 2,000 church leaders, social researcher and bestselling author Shaunti Feldhahn and psychologist and professor Dr. James Sells show how this is the church’s moment –and present a tested vision that is already thriving in churches of every size across the country!
We have an incredible opportunity to bring healing to the hurting, take the load off of the already-too-busy pastor and counselor, and grow healthy church communities of care—for now and many years to come.
Today, we face a dramatic rise in every psychological and spiritual need, just as affordable counseling solutions are more difficult to find. For perspective, 25 million people—more than the population of Florida—are not getting help for severe anxiety alone. Enter the church and millions of Christian lay people who understand brokenness, grace, and the power of relationship.
In every community, the church has the opportunity to be a key place people go for help. In fact, church growth experts describe this type of church care ministry as the evangelism, discipleship, and church growth method of the 21st century.
This book will share how this works, and equip you as a busy leader to:
- understand the mental health crisis in your community
- raise up motivated lay people within the church to help address the spiritual and emotional needs of the hurting
- partner with counselors and other mental health professionals most effectively
- organize the church’s time and resources to reach the most people, while freeing you to step in where you are most needed
- grow your outreach to your community
Don’t miss this opportunity to meet people’s needs, grow your people, and grow your church.

Listen to Marci's interview with Carrie Abbott: Why Homemaking Reveals God’s Glory in the Ordinary, Part 1 and Why Homemaking Reveals God’s Glory in the Ordinary, Part 2
When the daily work of caring for your home feels unseen, exhausting, or ordinary, this warm guide helps Christian women see their service as sacred work.
In Homemaking Matters, Marci Ferrell shows how the gospel changes everything, especially what we do in our homes. Blending biblical insight, lived wisdom, and practical takeaways, she helps you see each day not as a checklist of chores, but as a divine vocation with eternal significance.
From keeping up with family laundry to welcoming a friend over for dinner, every opportunity to serve others is an opportunity to serve God. With chapters on ordinary tasks, the ministry of home, mentorship, joy, and more, this book reframes homemaking as purposeful, valuable service that women in every season of life―young or old, married or single, with kids or without―can do for God’s glory.
Inside, you’ll learn to
- see routine chores as opportunities for worship and service
- practice contentment instead of chasing a picture-perfect life
- encourage younger women through everyday faithfulness
- choose joy and gratitude in repetitive responsibilities
- reflect Christ’s patience, humility, and love in daily family life
- grow in Christlikeness through the everyday work God has entrusted to you
Let Homemaking Matters renew your vision for the ministry of home and help you serve with purpose, joy, and confidence in Christ.
