BE DEVIANT
Living Transformed In A Conforming World
The pressure to conform is relentless. But so is the call of Christ.
You were not created to blend in. You were not saved to play it safe. You were called to live holy, set apart, and transformed. In a world that celebrates self and silences truth, Be Deviant is a clear, biblical call to go against the flow—and follow Jesus without compromise.
Rooted in Romans 12:1–2, this book confronts cultural lies head-on: the myth of autonomy, the rise of self-worship, and the quiet pressure to stay silent when truth is inconvenient. With a bold mix of personal stories, Scriptural depth, and cultural insight, author and ministry leader Mark Oxer calls readers to walk the narrow road with conviction, clarity, and courage.
This is not a book about rebellion for rebellion’s sake.
It is about obedience, transformation, and living fully surrendered in a world that rewards compromise.
The book also includes a 30-Day Live Deviant Challenge to help you take tangible steps toward spiritual transformation.
You do not need to be loud to stand out.
You need to be faithful.
If you’re ready to stop drifting and start living with purpose, this is your invitation. Be transformed. Live differently. Be Deviant

This Is The Way
Following Christ In A Culture Of Confusion
You're not looking for fluff. You're not here for religious clichés.
You want something real.
This is a book for men who are serious about following Jesus, men who know the Christian life is not a casual stroll but a call to grit, brotherhood, and unwavering purpose.
This Is the Way is a 9-chapter journey into the core of Christian manhood, identity, discipline, spiritual warfare, calling, and legacy. It's not a step-by-step program or quick fix. It's a field manual. A call to depth. A charge to keep going.
Whether you're reorienting your life around Christ or digging deeper into the path you're already on, this book will challenge, ground, and push you toward the kind of manhood that truly matters.

Preparing For Lifting Performance
Plan. Do. Review.
This book highlights the coach/athlete relationship as it is the crux of the development of a successful athlete. Without complete trust in a coach an athlete will not reach their potential. The book then builds off of this foundation and explains comprehensible methods for setting goals, training and competing in "the zone", prescribing training loads and recovery techniques for a wide range of athletes.

What They’re Saying
Preparing For Lifting Performance
Sometimes it is easy to become complacent in our own training styles. We know what works for us and eventually stop exploring other methods. Unfortunately, this can lead to key elements of an athlete's experience being lost. The soft skills of training and competing often take a back seat to the technical aspects of performance. This book inspires you to train the muscle between your ears as much as you train the rest of the athlete.

Catan Strategy
Catan Strategy isn't just a book of the best ways to win Catan, it's a biography of a champion. In fact, if Mark Oxer writes another book, I'd love to read more experiences from the conventions and venues he's been to, what kinds of people he's met, and more about other games he's played, Catan and other titles.

Preparing For Lifting Performance
Chapter 3 was fascinating! Could honestly be an independent blog post. One of the best explanations of goal setting and all it’s intricacies that I have come across. Great read!
