Hurting with God:
Learning to Lament with the Psalms
ISBN-978-0-89112-400-9
​
How do believers live out faith in prolonged seasons of pain and loss? How can we live with God when it hurts - and continues to hurt? Drawing from his own daily struggle with chronic pain and years of reading and teaching the Psalms, Pemberton leads readers on a quest to recover a lost ancient resource for people of faith - the language of lament.
This rich volume calls attention to the loss of laments in our churches , what this loss is costing us, and what might happen if we spoke and prayed the full spectrum of biblical faith languages.

I Will Change Your Name
Messages from the Father to a Heart Broken by Divorce
ISBN-978-0-89112-509-9
​
Through the excruciating pain of divorce, the Lord was truly changing my name. From abandoned to welcomed. From rejected to cherished. From defeated to victorious. At times I listen to the deceiver's lies and forget my name. But the Father is always there to remind me of my true identity: I am his.
When God Calls:
Will You Trust Me Now?
ISBN-978-0-89098-366-9
​
How did God call people to do his work in their own times? Does God still call people today? If so, how? Pemberton offers some insights into the biblical "call narratives" - the calls of Abraham, Moses, Samuel, Mary, and more - and challenges the reader to discover and failthfully respond to God's call today.
