NavPress Authors Matt Mikalatos and Kathy Khang Receive Book of the Year Award from Englewood Review of Books

Colorado Spring, CO.—December 15, 2023—Englewood Review of Books named Loving Disagreement: Fighting for Community through the Fruit of the Spirit their 2023 book of the year on December 7. Written by NavPress coauthors Matt Mikalatos and Kathy Khang, Loving Disagreement released in October 2023.

Since 2008, The Englewood Review of Books has focused on reviewing titles with themes like “community, mission, imagination, and reconciliation, and hope.”

Caitlyn Carlson, Senior Editor at NavPress, commented on this prestigious award, saying, “Matt and Kathy are wise, honest companions in the realities of what it looks like to follow Jesus in our world today. This well-deserved recognition accompanies the many readers who have reached out to say, ‘I feel challenged, helped, and less alone for having read this book.’”

Loving Disagreement is ideal for Christians who have grown dissatisfied with our fractured society and wish they could find a new way to connect with and change the world for the better. The book asks the question of “What does it look like to love someone you disagree with?” In a world that is increasingly divisive, Mikalatos and Khang exemplify how we can approach our differences and conflict with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
