Religious Freedom in a Secular Age
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“With his characteristic wit, Michael Bird demonstrates that religious liberty is of interest not only to Christians but also to the marketplace of ideas that helped deepen faith while simultaneously making room for peaceable difference. With a keen assessment of cultural events and theological dexterity, Bird is now among those doing needed work to retrieve the forgotten ideal that is religious liberty.”
Christian Living
“When Americans see ‘1776’ in the subtitle of a book written by an Englishman, they likely think they know what to expect—an apologia for monarchy. That’s not this book. Instead, Remaking the World offers an insightful and trenchant intellectual history of how the ideas and figures of a single year catapulted us into the present. A book like this should make Christians more discerning and critical about the taken-for-granted assumptions that we all believe are routine but are really the product of forces outside our control. Toward the end, Wilson gives Christians a pathway to witness to a world that thinks it has eclipsed the claims of Christianity but remains unable to explain itself apart from it.”
Bible Studies & Devotionals
“The Biggest Story Advent is a gospel-rich, visually stunning resource that helps families recover the wonder of Christmas by telling the whole story—beginning not in Bethlehem, but in Genesis. With theological depth, narrative clarity, and childlike joy, Kevin DeYoung guides families day by day through the promises of Scripture that culminate in Christ. This is catechesis through awe and Advent through story—perfect for parents who want their children to marvel at the Messiah.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The first edition of The Case for Life is the single greatest pro-life apologetics book available from an evangelical author. I use it in my classes and strongly endorse it. It’s accessible in how it reads, comprehensive in its argument, and intellectually satisfying in making a definitive case for protecting human life at all stages. Klusendorf is to be commended for making high-level bioethical issues simple and grounding his argument in the complementary sources of Scripture and natural law. With Roe now in the ash heap of history, it was time for The Case for Life to be expanded and updated. Here it is.”
The Doctrine of the Incarnation Opened
Theology
“This outstanding book on the radical theology of Edward Irving is based on his handwritten sermons on the incarnation. For those people who have neglected or forgotten Irving, the collection of sermons is augmented by an excellent introduction to his life and work by Graham McFarland and a response to Irving’s view of the sinfulness of Christ’s human nature by Daniel Cameron These two chapters act as essential book ends to Irving’s sermons.”
The Superiority of an Evangelical Model of Religious Liberty
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“I warmly commend my friend Daniel Trippie’s The Superiority of an Evangelical Model of Religious Liberty. Trippie surveys the competing paradigms to ground religious liberty and finds each wanting. In Christianity and Christianity alone does Trippie locate a durable ground for religious liberty’s protection. In addition to the contribution this book makes to the field of public theology, it is a great joy to see additional evangelical scholars give voice to a vital issue of social ethics.”
The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Carl Henry’s book is a modern classic that students of public theology simply cannot ignore. Its argument opened the doors for evangelicalism’s engagement with the world around it in the latter half of the twentieth century. Today it stands as a timeless rebuke to those who would make the kingdom of God the handmaiden of earthly political ideologies, yet it does so without falling prey to gnostic withdrawal. Henry’s argument forces evangelicals to reckon with the real-world implications of the theology they herald.”
Where Is God in a World with So Much Evil?
Christian Living
“What I love about this book is that Hansen grapples with evil and suffering not as a notional or abstract concept but by forcing the reader to reckon with some of the twentieth century’s most agonizing moral events, particularly Hitler’s and Stalin’s brutality. Hansen ably communicates how the Christian worldview—chiefly, Jesus himself—helps explain our agonies and ultimately remedies them. What an irony it is that one of Christianity’s chief objections—the problem of suffering—can become one of its greatest testimonies.”
Why Do You Believe What You Believe About the Holy Spirit?
Theology
“McFarlane invites us to discover what we believe about the Holy Spirit by reconnecting us to the historical traditions of trinitarian theology. Yet what emerges from this book is neither antiquarian nor safe, but altogether contemporary and shocking.”
