The Outrageous Idea of the Missional Professor, International Edition

Evangelism & Missions

“Paul Gould is one of the brightest young scholars in the evangelical world, and The Outrageous Idea of the Missional Professor is an excellent book which argues that evangelical institutions and faculty members need to ‘revision’ themselves as missional institutions and professors. I agree with Gould and recommend the book highly to leaders, administrators, and faculty members in the world of Christian higher education.”

The Power of the Church

Theology

“Mike Wagenman’s The Power of the Church is an extraordinary work of public theology. In it, he provides a compelling account of the church’s role and its unique ‘power’ among other societal institutions such as government, education, and family. Highly recommended for readers interested in being public witnesses in our secular age when orthodox Christianity is relegated to the social, cultural, and political margins.”

The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self

Theology

“The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self is perhaps the most significant analysis and evaluation of Western culture written by a Protestant during the past fifty years. If you want to understand the social, cultural, and political convulsions we are now experiencing, buy this book, and read it for all it is worth. Highly recommended.”

The Symphony of Mission

Christian Living

“A magnificent contribution. Goheen and Mullins provide a narrative-based biblical theology and a holistic approach to mission from which pastors, students, and professors alike will benefit. Highly recommended.”

The Tabernacling Presence of God

Evangelism & Missions

“Booth offers us a theological underpinning for gospel witness in an increasingly post-Christian culture. The book employs the mission of God as an interpretive key, relates the fact of God's presence to the task of evangelism, contextualizes it for the West in general and Canada in specific, and does so in an eminently readable way. Highly recommended.”

Tweetable Nietzsche

Philosophy

“thought that one could wish for. Anyone who reads this book will be informed, instructed, and entertained.”

Uncommon Decency

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Although populism is by no means the only source of today's toxic political discourse, it has often done more to fan flames of resentment than to model civil disagreement. Uncommon Decency should be required reading not only for politicians, talk show hosts, and public intellectuals but also for everyday Christians seeking to represent the Lord faithfully in public.”

Understanding Postmodernism

Philosophy

“Understanding Postmodernism is the best one-stop introduction to postmodernism from a conservative evangelical perspective. It describes and evaluates postmodernism from historical, theological, and philosophical perspectives and does so in a lucid and accessible manner.”

We Evangelicals and Our Mission

Evangelism & Missions

“David Hesselgrave is perhaps the greatest missiologist of the last half of the twentieth century. Everything he has written is worth reading. We Evangelicals and Our Mission is no exception. Highly recommended.”

Why We Belong

Church Leadership & Ministry

“The authors of Why We Belong argue for a robustly evangelical ecumenism—one that does not downplay the importance of doctrine or paper over theological differences, but instead recognizes those differences for what they are and moves forward in authentic Christian unity. Highly recommended.”
