At JLS Publishers, we’ve noticed a pattern in many faith journeys:

When life becomes uncertain, people reach for control.
When mistakes happen, people hold onto guilt.

But neither control nor guilt were meant to lead your story.

They’re signals.

Signals that point back to something deeper, trust, surrender, and transformation through Christ.

These two recent reflections explore that tension:

• Why we chase control when everything feels unstable
• How guilt can actually become the starting point of renewed faith

If you’ve ever wrestled with either of these… you’re not alone.

💬 Which is harder for you to release: control or guilt?

We’d value your perspective.

Sometimes the hardest seasons of life are the ones that shape our faith the most.

When plans fall apart…
when prayers seem unanswered…
when the path ahead feels uncertain…

It can feel like everything is working against us.

But many believers later realize something powerful:

God was working through the struggle, not just after it.

Faith often grows strongest in the moments we feel weakest.

And sometimes what feels like a setback…
is actually part of God’s plan for a breakthrough.

If you believe God can bring purpose even through difficult seasons, comment “Amen.”

A serious question for parents today:

Are we raising children for the world we grew up in…

or the world they will actually live in?

Artificial intelligence is already changing how people work, learn, and solve problems.

Many experts believe the next generation will grow up with AI the same way we grew up with the internet.

But that raises an important question:

What skills should kids develop in an AI world?

Critical thinking?
Creativity?
Ethics?
Human connection?

What do you think will matter most for children growing up in the age of AI?

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Merry Christmas Everyone! Many believe that Christmas is not about what we give. It is about what God gave.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son.” John 3:16

The manger reminds us that God chose humility over spectacle and love over comfort. Christmas is the story of a Savior who came close so we could come home.

Some seasons don’t break you.

They reveal where God has already been at work.

God’s Plan: Your Breakthrough was written for the moments when faith feels heavy, answers feel distant, and honesty feels risky.

This book doesn’t promise shortcuts.

It offers something better: clarity, resilience, and the courage to keep walking with God—right where you are.

Some stories don’t start with triumph. They start in the places we’re ashamed to talk about.

In this new video, Liv Arden shares why God’s Plan, Your Breakthrough exists in the first place. Simon Rockwell’s story didn’t begin with success or strength. It began in a Caribbean police station after a night that changed everything.

This book doesn’t offer a polished testimony. It offers the truth. The kind that reminds you, God doesn’t waste pain, and your worst moment isn’t the end of your story.

If you’ve ever wondered whether God could use what broke you, this is the book you read next.
