Speak Life
Brady Boyd turns to Jesus’s example to demonstrate that the health of a conversation is only as vibrant as the health of one’s interactions with God. In Speak Life, Boyd explores:
- How to tune in to God in order to tune up your relationships
- How to differentiate between the Holy Spirit’s voice and the lies of the enemy
- How healthier self-talk leads to better communication with others
- How to bring healing to others through the words you speak
Proverbs says, “Reckless speech is like the thrusts of a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing” (12:18, TLV). Speak Life helps readers speak words of restoration to God, themselves, and those they love.

Brady Boyd has done it again. In Speak Life, Boyd writes about something that every one of us can understand on many levels; the power of words and conversations. Boyd writes from a pastor’s heart. And by this, I’m not suggesting that he writes as a guru, an expert, or a know-it-all. Rather, he shares with raw honesty and vulnerability; but through it all, he faithfully points people to Jesus, the scriptures, and ultimately, to a more intimate relationship with God.
Rev. Eugene Cho, senior pastor of Quest Church and author of Overrated

We are all spread too thin, taking on more than we can handle, trying to do so much—almost as if we are afraid that if we were to take a moment of rest, we might discover that all our busyness is covering up an essential lack in our lives.
But God never meant for us to be so busy. God desires for us to have rest and peace. Brady Boyd shows you how to live a life that embraces stillness and solitude, so you can find the peace that God wants for you.

Let Her Lead
Let her be her. And let her be heard. For Pastor Brady Boyd, these are the two main wishes for his young daughter and the world she’ll encounter as a woman. In Let Her Lead, Boyd calls on the church and the wider world to let women be who they are and speak their voice with confidence and conviction.
The question of women in leadership remains touchy for many people, especially church people. In this brief and engaging book, Boyd defuses the tension by offering a fresh, practical, and biblical perspective and revealing the leadership roles women play at New Life Church in Colorado Springs. Through it all, Boyd imagines a bright future that could be awaiting his daughter and what she may be invited to do. And he shows all of us—men and women alike—the roles we can play to create that better reality.

“I am so gratified to know my friend, Brady Boyd, is standing with those in the larger church community who see women in ministry leadership as timelessly intended by God and thus wholly consistent with the Holy Scriptures—both Old and New Testament. I urge leaders and other workers in today’s church to read, be nourished, and join in seeing the whole Body of Christ activated for ministry.”
—Jack W. Hayford,Chancellor, The King’s University–Dallas/Los Angeles
“In this landmark book, Brady Boyd expresses what Dr. Paul Yonggi Cho learned many years ago when 47,000 of his 50,000 cell leaders were women. His elders refused to help him when his health had broken, but his women (who excel at nurturing) rose up and built the largest church in the history of the world. Let’s release this mighty multitude: ‘The Lord gives the Word; the women who announce the news are a great host!’ (Ps. 68: 11, ESV).”
—Larry Stockstill, Pastor, Bethany Church
I’ve walked the halls of Brady’s offices hearing his female staff members rave about how he lets them lead. I’ve also walked the halls of corporate America, wishing for more men like Brady who would let women lead. This small book is big on wisdom for the church and the marketplace.
—Lynette Lewis, Speaker, Business Consultant, Author of Climbing the Ladder in Stilettos
I am really glad that my friend Brady Boyd decided to write this book! So many books that deal with controversial topics try to score points or win a debate, but that isn’t what Brady does here.

What he finds is so encouraging—this is a book that everyone should read.

—Jimmy Evans, Founder and co-host, Marriage Today; Senior Elder, Trinity Fellowship
Brady Boyd delivers a refreshing and uplifting take on the role of women in ministry. His words are expressed with such common sense and compassion that it begs the question of why such gender issues exist in the first place.

Women of God have such great influence over the direction their church takes and the lives of its members, and this book will make it clear once and for all just how crucial is the role women play in the modern church. Whether her calling is to raise a family or to make crucial executive decisions, this enlightening read will inspire the women of the church to embrace their talents and use them to value any ministry, whatever those talents may be.

Ron Luce, President and founder of Teen Mania Ministries
My personal observation of Pastor Brady Boyd in the moment of the shooting crisis at New Life confirmed to me the deep inward character I knew he had when he was recommended to be their senior pastor. I stood and watched as he looked down upon the bloodstains on the floor and walked out to face an army of media at the church entrance. He was calm, poised, compassionate, Spiit-led, and full of God’s authority. His humble leadership not only settled a shaken church, but also restored to broken families who had both lost children to the devil’s devices. Read this book with settled knowledge that God works in crisis and that the end result is that our lives, our characters, and our families will be stronger in the struggle.

As pastors of Oasis Church in Los Angeles, my husband Philip and I find that we are half parents and half pastors to our congregation. It is an interesting place to be. Many in our church are in their twenties and thirties, looking for spiritual parents – which reflects an entire generation that hope to find their place and fulfill their purpose in history. In this book Brady Boyd takes us on a journey of receiving that all-important blessing from our Father. Rather than live as orphans, we can walk confidently into the future God has in store for us. I can’t wait for our congregation to read it!
Holly Wagner, Pastor of Oasis Church in Los Angeles and author of GodChicks and Daily Steps for GodChicks
Brady Boyd’s Sons and Daughters is a tremendously moving book. We are all spiritual orphans seeking our way home in one way or another. In this book Brady shares moving stories, showing us that we are already accepted by God, enabling us to live both fearlessly and faithfully. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking answers to living life more abundantly.
Mark Patterson, Lead Pastor of National Community Church in Washington, DC, and author of the Ten New York Times bestseller The Circle Maker
I have long known Brady Boyd to be a man of deep spiritual insight and remarkable sensitivity to God’s voice. I trust him. That’s why I was not surprised to discover that Sons and Daughters is filled cover-to-cover with transformative glimpses of God’s Father-heart for me (and you). I believe we live in a day in which most believers suffer to some degree from an ‘orphan spirit.’ Brady has not only penned a beautiful, biblical invitation to ‘come home,’ but has handed us a map that shows the way.
Kari Jobe, Worship leader at Gateway Church in Southlake, TX, and songwriter
Having spent most of my childhood starved of the love and influence of an earthly father, the plight of orphans is very close to my heart. Brady Boyd’s gentle and wise words about the transition from spiritual orphan to treasured child of God are like a healing balm for anyone who’s ever longed for a place to call home.
