Welcome to the Family: Let Me Tell You About the Kingdom of God

You just made the most important decision of your life — and now what?

This book is the conversation nobody sits new believers down to have. Not a sermon. Not a classroom. Just two people at a kitchen table with a Bible open between them, working through the questions you're almost too embarrassed to ask out loud: What actually happened to me? Am I really saved? What do I do when I sin again? How do I pray, and does God even answer? Can I still drink? Date? Doubt?

Author Alan Braun draws on more than twenty-five years pastoring local churches to answer these questions plainly, honestly, and from Scripture — no religious decoration, no vague platitudes. You'll learn how the whole Bible tells one story pointing to Jesus, how to actually read it for yourself, and why you're not "a sinner saved by grace" but a new creation, a saint, a child of God who belongs to a Kingdom that is already here.

Whether you prayed a prayer last night or you've been circling these questions for years, this book meets you where you are and walks with you toward where you're going.

Welcome to the family. Now let's get to work.
