God and His Household
God and His Household: Overcoming Egalitarianism in the Evangelical Church
The modern evangelical church is dying – and the cause is not the liberalism our parents warned us about, but something quieter: egalitarianism, a spirit of sameness that has crept into evangelical churches unexamined, reshaping how we understand authority, ordination, and the family.
Drawing on seventeen years as a pastor in the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, including his own church trial for resisting his denomination’s drift, Nathanael Devlin offers both a firsthand account and a sustained biblical argument. God and His Household calls the church back to a household pattern of headship, courage, and mission rooted in Scripture.
For pastors, elders, and any believer who senses something has gone wrong in how the church handles authority and leadership.

The Mud Pie King
The Mud Pie King
A children’s picture book, ages 4-8
A king was given two gifts: gold from his right hand, and food from his left. He could have fed a kingdom. Instead he fed himself, until the day everything he owned was taken away, and all he could make were mud pies. Alone outside the village, the king shapes his mud pies and waits for nothing at all. Then a small girl wanders by, and laughs.
A story about greed, loss, and the strange discovery that giving away something the world calls worthless can be worth more than gold. First told as a bedtime story to the author’s own three children, now illustrated for readers everywhere.
