Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Getting a story is about more than merely enjoying it. It means hearing it, understanding it, and above all, being impacted by it. This commentary series hopes that its readers not only hear and understand the story, but are impacted by it to live in as Christian a way as possible. The editors and contributors set that table very well and open up the biblical story in ways that move us to act with sensitivity and understanding. That makes hearing the story as these authors tell it well worth the time. Well done.”
Did Jesus Teach Salvation by Works?
Theology
“A New Testament study that is worth pondering...Stanley's study shows how...God's grace is even greater than we have imagined, covering not only our justification, but our sanctification as well. Any work that shows the depth of God's great grace is worth commending. This is such a book.”
Apologetics
“The conversation between Habermas and Flew has been a fascinating one at the highest levels of philosophical reflection. This book beautifully chronicles that dialogue in a way that is clear for those not versed in philosophy. The book will cause you to sit and ponder. That is a compliment enough, but more than that you will learn how two competing worldviews should interact with each other--and that is a real gift.”
Work, Money & Leadership
“Discover Joy in Work is about transforming the way the worker sees work by understanding why God has us do it as stewards. What is amazing is that as you read this book you will see it not only can change the way you see work, it will change you as a person in ways that both include and go beyond your work.”
Theology
“Appreciating the gospels is not easy, especially given all the views that are out there about what the gospels do with Jesus. Here is a solid introduction to the key themes of these central books about Jesus. Accessible and clear, Discovering Jesus will get you well oriented and open up a lifetime of reflection about Jesus.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“With his typical care and detail, Mark Keown takes a look at Hebrews, the Catholic Epistles, and Revelation in Discovering the New Testament, Volume 3. What we get is a solid treatment of authorship, context, book outlines, and core theme of these books, including a fair discussion of most of the things scholars discuss when considering them. If you are familiar with Volumes 1 and 2, this wonderfully completes the series. If not, they are all worth having.”
Does the Jewish Bible Point to Jesus?
Apologetics
“Does the Jewish Bible Point to Jesus? Here is a book that takes you through some key Jewish Bible texts and offers what many may find a surprising conclusion. Written in a clear style, this book will reveal the clues God has left in His Word for what He is doing in the midst of our needy world.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Interpreting eschatology in apocalyptic literature introduces one to a maze of options. Fountain's study takes a close look at some key approaches. . . . Effectively using Mark 13 as a sample text, one can see how the various views read the text the way they do. . . . This is a solid guide into how to handle such complex passages.”
Evidence That Demands a Verdict
Apologetics
“When I was in college and needed material to discuss with skeptical friends, Evidence That Demands a Verdict was a key resource for me. Now it is updated and an even better repository for discussion. It remains a valuable collection of information on issues people raise to challenge the faith that not only gives the key data points but allows you to track the conversation in key resources—a real treasure.”

Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“The study of orality is making us think about the Bible in new ways reflecting its original social contexts from each Testament. Exegeting Orality is a worthwhile read because it surveys well where orality studies currently stand and proposes a series of suggestions about how the move to text interacted with oral tradition, not in opposition to it but alongside it. This book will help you get situated in a discussion that is becoming more prominent in biblical studies.”

Exploring Protestant Traditions
Theology
“What a service this careful and thoughtful look at eight Protestant traditions is! Well organized, clear, up to date. This is a solid primer in what makes Protestants both alike and different. Well done. This work helps us understand each other better; a real contribution to the church.”
Christian Living
“Faith Embodied leads us to reflect on how the way God made us impacts our souls and spirits. It is an eye-opening look at things we often take for granted about the way we are made and function. Read it to learn much about who we are and how we can flourish.”
Handbook of Reading Theological German
“Oh, how I would have loved to have had a book like Handbook of Reading Theological German as I pursued a PhD and prepared to interact primarily with a German theologian on the use of the Old Testament in the New in Luke-Acts. Rather than trying to teach myself German, I could have sat at the feet of clear instructors who also offered me samples of the array of texts I would encounter. It would have been a God-sent gift. So to anyone struggling to learn German, this book is for you.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“In my own lifetime, the values of the world have flipped upside down. We have landed not in a wonderland, but in a world of Post-Truth. Hope of Nations traces the result and what it means for the church. John S. Dickerson does not stop there, but examines how the church should face this new reality, as hard as it will be. Read this book, and you will be equipped to stand strong, not fearing this new reality but able to face it with a wisdom that comes from what Scripture says about living well in a difficult world.”

How to Be a Patriotic Christian
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“As I read How to Be a Patriotic Christian, one word kept coming to me: wisdom. Our civic life requires wisdom, and this book by Richard Mouw helps to supply it page after page. The balance in this book and its tone help show the way to be a good loving Christian and a good citizen at the same time. May their tribe thrive and increase.”
Christian Living
“What a solid and needed book! How to Find Yourself is about locating yourself not in the privatized world of your own self-constructed identity but in the social and divine contexts in which people live, made as they are in the image of God. In a modern world filled with loneliness and dislocation, this book connects you with life as it was designed to be lived with others. It sees life in the world for the challenge it often is, including the faults of what we do to one another, but it does not hide from the responsibility we all have for making it that way and from the opportunity that a connection to God and care for others has for making it better.”
How to Stay Christian in Seminary
Christian Living
“For seminarians who have heard seminary will dull your faith, here is great advice packed into a small space. Don’t let the size of this book fool you. It is filled with solid-gold counsel.”
Work, Money & Leadership
“A flourishing life is a connected life. In a world that often fragments our lives, it is no wonder we often feel disconnected and dislocated. A collaborative project that also connects our lives into a unified ‘house’ and ‘stewardship’ can take us to connectedness and flourishing. Connectedness is a gain for all, especially in the disciplines represented within the church. This book shows that admirably.”
