Book of the Month
Emotional Hoarding
By: Laurie Davies
Let's take a closer look at the book Emotional Hoarding.
Letting Go of the Stuff That Keeps You Stuck
We could live free, but cleaning house is hard.
Emotional baggage is trendy. We might even joke about it. Yet, one of the early English definitions of luggage is anything of more weight than value. Let that sink in. When we collect, stack, and stockpile burdens, we add weight but not value to our lives.
What is clogging your heart? Worry, panic, or regret? False guilt, anger, or pride? Maybe deep places you don't talk about are buried under bitterness, worthlessness, or loneliness. You long for relief. This stuff has kept you stuck for too long. It's time to unburden your heart and clear out the emotional burdens hindering you from living free in Christ.
With humor, relatability, and biblical wisdom, Emotional Hoarding helps readers to stop holding on to grudges, anger, regrets, and unhealed wounds and instead find wholeness and healing in Christ. Join Laurie Davies as she reveals a path away from shame, heaviness, and isolation into wide open places where you can live unburdened and free.
Emotional hoarding not only affects you, but it touches all your relationships. With input from mental health professionals, this book is also a great resource for Christian counselors, life coaches, and ministry leaders.

I Can Only Imagine 2
from Lionsgate
Let’s take a closer look at the I Can Only Imagine 2.
After the breakout success of the song “I Can Only Imagine,” MercyMe’s Bart Millard (John Michael Finley) is living the dream—sold-out arenas, a devoted fan base, and a thriving career. But behind the spotlight, Bart’s past threatens the family he’s built, especially the fragile bond with his son, Sam (Sammy Dell).
When hopeful newcomer Tim Timmons (Milo Ventimiglia, “This Is Us”) joins the band for their biggest tour yet, he unknowingly brings a renewed gratitude to Bart’s life through their unlikely friendship. Bart soon discovers that Tim carries hardships—and secrets—of his own, forcing him to face his past and repair his relationships with Sam and his wife, Shannon (Sophie Skelton), before fame costs him what matters most. Based on the heartfelt true story behind the hit single “Even If,” I CAN ONLY IMAGINE 2 is the inspiring next chapter of faith, family, and finding God in the fire.
