Book of the Month April’s book of the month is If You Bite and Devour by Alexander Strauch. Pick this book up for $11 at the booktable. This book is one of the most personally impactful books I have ever read. In a season where it feels that conflict and disagreement have been ever-present in multiple arenas of my life, this short book that I first read more than a decade ago has been an incredible aid to me, revealing sin and guarding me from it. For your elders over the last several months, I regularly hear quotes and allusions to the timely, practical, and incredibly biblical counsel that Strauch has offered us. I am excited that the GBC might read this book together, particularly in this season. God intends conflict as a test of our faith to demonstrate the reality of His Spirit’s presence in us and the remarkable love that He has put in our hearts. The time you spend slowly, prayerfully reading this book with your Bible open and your heart softened will bear incredible fruit in your life and our church, producing fruit that will redound to God’s glory on into eternity. – Jacob Hantla
