The new book
Thresholds
Thresholds: A Framework for the Leader Who Must Go Further is the book for the leader in the middle of a becoming they do not yet have language for. It maps the seasons where the calling itself asks you to change — the doors God opens that require you to leave part of yourself at the gate before you cross.
Not a book about optimization. A book about formation. About what has to break, what has to stay behind, and what has to be carried through. Written for pastors, executives, and every leader whose next room requires a different version of them than the last one did.
Thresholds is available now on Amazon, with its official debut alongside its companion album Through at the Salt & Light META Conference this July.
