- “Body of Proof: The 7 Best Reasons to Believe in the Resurrection of Jesus—and Why It Matters Today” by Jeremiah J. Johnston: To be clear, NOT Jeremiah Johnson. He has a “T” in his name.

Ben Carson’s Book – written with wife, Candy Carson
I’ll be honest; I thought this was Ben Courson.
Then I put my glasses on.
“The Perilous Fight” by Ben Carson and Candy Carson blends him and his wife’s personal stories with s on faith and resilience.
The book follows Ben Carson’s journey from a tough upbringing in Detroit to becoming a famous neurosurgeon and political figure, showing the constant support and strength of his wife, Candy.
Cuba Gooding, Jr. portrayed Dr. Carson in the movie Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story in 2009. It’s based on the same title as the book he wrote in the 90’s.
If you did not know, Christians believe the same things spiritually, but not always politically.
Regardless of your political beliefs, his story is nothing short of inspiring. Years ago, I read the book of his life, but this one might be intriguing because his wife is co-writing with him.
Throughout their story, the Carsons highlight how their Christian faith helped them handle life’s challenges, giving readers a clear example of the power of perseverance and belief.
They share honest reflections on the trials they’ve faced—from professional pressures to being in the public eye—that bring a message of hope and inspiration.
“The Perilous Fight” is likely motivational, which is likely why it is one of the best-selling Christian books right now.
Sarah Jakes Roberts – Power Moves
“Power Moves” by Sarah Jakes Roberts is an absolute game-changer!
In her latest book, Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts, a dynamic pastor and motivational speaker, delivers a powerful message that is both deeply spiritual and incredibly practical. I have not followed her ministry, but she’s popular.
She guides you through transforming your life by embracing their God-given power and making bold, faith-filled decisions.
With her signature authenticity and relatable style, Roberts shares personal stories and biblical insights that inspire readers to break free from fear and step into their purpose with confidence.
This book doesn’t just focus on making changes; it’s all about making transformative moves that perfectly align with God’s plan for your life.
Whether you’re at a crossroads or simply looking to reignite your passion, “Power Moves” is an absolute must-read that will leave you feeling inspired and ready to conquer the world, as do most best-selling Christian books right now.
Keep the Faith by Dr. David Jeremiah
I fought the urge to make this book the first option for you to see in this post.
Dr. David Jeremiah is by far one of my top three favorite pastors of all time.
In his book Keep the Faith, he deeply encourages us readers while offering hope and guidance for navigating life’s challenges with unwavering faith.
If you’ve watched him on television or listened to his radio broadcast, you know he has such a knack for delivering God’s work in a relatable and easy-to-digest way.
This book is no different.
In his signature comforting and insightful style, Dr. Jeremiah draws from biblical teachings and personal experiences to remind readers of the steadfastness of God’s promises.
You’ll love the practical wisdom on how to maintain faith amidst adversity and challenge – which speaks to me very personally right now.
This read emphasizes the importance of trust, prayer, and community.
Dr. Jeremiah’s relatable anecdotes (I LOVE HIS STORIES!) and deep scriptural insights make this book not only an uplifting book but also a practical guide for anyone seeking to strengthen their faith and find hope in difficult times.
Side note. Every single morning, both my kids listened to the following preachers on our way to school:
1) Chuck Swindoll (His broadcast was ending)
2) David Jeremiah
3) Adrian Roberts (They were getting out of when he started).
Anyway, whether you’re facing personal struggles or looking to deepen your spiritual walk, “Keep the Faith” is a must-read that will inspire and reassure you of God’s enduring presence and love.
“Forgiving What You Can’t Forget” by Lysa TerKeurst
Reading “Forgiving What You Can’t Forget” by Lysa TerKeurst was a transformative experience for me.
I’ve always said forgiveness would be so much easier if I had amnesia.
But I don’t.
TerKeurst dives deep into the painful process of forgiveness, addressing the very real and raw emotions that come with it.
Her vulnerability is front and center, and sharing her own struggles with forgiveness made me feel seen and understood as she tackled the tough questions I’ve often asked myself.
What I appreciated most was her practical approach—TerKeurst doesn’t just tell us to forgive; she shows us how she offers to offer actionable steps grounded in biblical wisdom and psychological insights.
The book challenged me to confront my own unresolved hurts and guided me through the process of releasing them. My forgiveness journey is a work in progress – but I’m on it.
I refused to live in unforgiveness.
TerKeurst’s compassionate and empathetic writing style made the journey feel less daunting, and I finished the book feeling lighter and more hopeful.
“Forgiving What You Can’t Forget” is not just a book; it’s a companion for anyone struggling to let go of past pain and seek a path to true healing and freedom.
Grab this one, and you’ll see why it is one of the best-selling Christian books right now.
Everyone struggles with unforgiveness at one point in their lives.
A Theological Book is one of the best-selling Christian books right now
“Body of Proof: The 7 Best Reasons to Believe in the Resurrection of Jesus—and Why It Matters Today” by Jeremiah J. Johnston is a compelling and thoroughly researched book that offers a robust defense of the resurrection’s historical validity.
Johnston (NOT JOHNSON), a renowned apologist and New Testament scholar draws on the latest archaeological and textual discoveries to present seven persuasive arguments for the resurrection’s authenticity.
You know, he writes so clearly and simply that even tricky theological and historical stuff makes sense to me.
Johnston’s work stands out for its practical application. I can’t stand books that are so ethereal that I cannot apply them to my life.
One outstanding example is his discussion on how the resurrection can offer profound hope and strength.
It is particularly meaningful in the face of personal suffering and loss.
Johnston explains that the resurrection is not just a historical event but a source of present-day empowerment and comfort. Praise God for that!!!
By believing in the resurrection, we can find reassurance in the promise of eternal life and the ultimate victory over death, which can transform their perspective on their own trials and tribulations.
I think this book is a valuable resource for believers seeking to deepen their understanding and for skeptics open to exploring the foundations of Christian belief.
I also recommend it if you’re in the grieving process.
Johnston holds advanced degrees in theology and New Testament studies.
Everyone is allowed one “cheat” in Life!
Hey, it’s my blog, so here is mine! Of course, I’m going to add my books to the list!
I wrote “What’s Taking So Long, Lord” to encourage and inspire single Christian women in their journey, offering them hope and faith as they navigate the challenges of waiting for God’s timing.
Many single women struggle with feelings of loneliness and doubt, questioning their worth and purpose; through my writing, I aim to remind them of their inherent value and the unique plan that God has for each of their lives.
My goal is to help these women strengthen their faith and trust in God’s perfect timing by sharing personal stories, biblical insights, and practical advice.
Grab a copy as a gift for a young woman or teenage girl or for yourself if you’re single!
It’s not a best-seller, but it’s a great book!
