Christian Book Awards · Teen Non-Fiction Category

Guided by Wisdom shows adolescents and their parents how God’s Word is relevant in decision-making, problem-solving, guidance, and character growth. Based on the book of Proverbs, it will spark conversation and train your kids to go to the Bible first.

Each chapter tackles a real-life scenario that teenagers face — from peer pressure to choosing friends, from handling failure to making big decisions — and shows how the wisdom of Proverbs speaks directly to that situation.

Written for teenagers but valuable for the whole family, this book is designed to be read together, discussed openly, and returned to again and again.

in plain sight

When a stranger arrives at Astrid’s homestead, burned by the desert and desperate for shelter, she sees a man she is called to help.
Her husband sees a danger she refuses to name.

At first, hospitality seems simple. Feed the hungry. Shelter the weak. Love the stranger. But as fear spreads through the household and the stranger’s presence grows harder to ignore, Astrid is forced to ask whether mercy without wisdom can become its own kind of danger.

In Plain Sight is a dark speculative Western about compassion, fear, faith, and the cost of seeing too late what was there all along.
