A New Testament Biblical Theology
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“A magnificent achievement! Rarely does a volume in biblical studies come along with such breadth, depth, insight, and specificity. It is a brilliant reconstruction of themes that are central to Christian faith. This is a landmark accomplishment.”
Anglicans and Pentecostals in Dialogue
Theology
“Privileged to be one who is currently engaged in the International Pentecostal-Anglican Commission, I found myself stimulated, broadened, and challenged by the multiple insights offered by those who had participated in dialogue within the UK. Anglicans and Pentecostals in Dialogue provides a means to deepen Anglicans and Pentecostals in their relationships and shared kingdom ministry.”
Christian Living
“For those who want to deepen their understanding of God's greatness and how we walk with him, this book will repay, many times over, the effort its reading requires.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Down-to-earth, clear, practical, straight shooting, biblically cogent treatment of the nature and necessity of conversion. This is an excellent book.”
From Heaven He Came and Sought Her
Theology
“This is the definitive study. It is careful, comprehensive, deep, pastoral, and thoroughly persuasive.”
Theology
“This is a clear, comprehensive, and compelling study. It shows Christology to be like a fabric made up of many threads all tightly woven together, a doctrine with presuppositions, connections, and consequences for the age in which we live. This doctrine is here seen in its wholeness, and that is what makes this study so theologically wholesome. It is fresh and excellent.”
God's Glory Alone—The Majestic Heart of Christian Faith and Life
Theology
“Praise for God’s Glory Alone “This book mines deep biblical truths about God’s glory in a way that shows how we should think and act in God-centered rather than self-centered ways. A wonderful book that leads us into awe and adoration.”
Theology
“God’s Quest is a welcome addition to complete the author’s overarching review of humanity’s quest for spiritual satisfaction and for God’s quest to address the salvific need of humanity. In The Quest, Dr. Kulathungam focused on the human-initiated search for spiritual reality. In God’s Quest, he describes the very distinct Judeo-Christian portrayal of the Almighty’s pursuit of those created in his image. Distinctions are made between the two, especially as relates to the messianic and salvific nature of Jesus Christ’s life, death, and resurrection. The chapter, ‘Spiritual Revolution,’ which focuses on the meaning of Pentecost and the purpose of Spirit baptism is especially stimulating. God’s Quest is a highly recommended study for those desiring to engage the Judeo-Christian understanding of a God who pursues those he has created.”
Christian Living
“As a national church leader, I and our leadership have determined to prioritize the reaching, discipling, and ministry development of children, youth, and young adults. Dr. Andy Gabruch is a key leader of this initiative. The insights found in Infobesity are inter-woven into our philosophy and program applications as we seek to equip families, churches, and ministries to connect with and mentor young women and men in a digitally saturated age. Infobesity is a book to not only be read but applied.”
Learning Evangelism from Jesus
Evangelism & Missions
“This is not a book about evangelistic technique but about doing evangelism biblically. There is a difference! Beginning with some of the everyday scenes in the gospels and then examining some of the parables, Jerram Barrs shows us that Jesus had no wooden formula which he followed, but rather was about engaging people in the depths of their being. As a result, this is an unusually wise guide to doing evangelism. The great truths of the gospel shine forth undiminished while at the same time the recesses of the human heart are explored with real insight.”
Christian Living
“A keen look beneath the frenzied surface of our modern world to see what lurks there—how people think, both about themselves and their world. It is these attitudes that are here brought face-to-face with the truth of the Beatitudes. This book is direct and helpful.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“I found Pentecostal Prophets especially instructional, not only as a Pentecostal leader but as one who has experienced and expressed prophetic ministry for most of my life. Stephen Barkley’s phenomenological study of contemporary and Old Testament prophets that identifies textural descriptions and structural components common to the prophetic experience within circles such as our church family was instructional and insightful. It certainly stimulated me to revisit my personal journey with the prophetic in a fresh way.”
Redemptive Reversals and the Ironic Overturning of Human Wisdom
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“An extraordinary book. It lays out a deeply biblical understanding of how God has reversed sin in Christ and how he judges sin in the world, sometimes in surprising ways. With its acute insights and unique perspective, it is a very helpful study.”
Theology
“An anniversary is a great moment to do a book like Reformation Theology. And with the passing of time, Reformation truths and the importance of the Reformation as a milestone in church history get forgotten—incredible as that sounds. But it is true. Perhaps we should not be surprised. How many times in the Old Testament do we read that the Israelites ‘forgot’? So I am enthusiastic about Reformation Theology.”
Theology
“This book a meticulous and comprehensive study of the righteousness which is central to God’s character and which defines all his actions. It is what makes redemption necessary, and it issues in the great summons to the church to be righteous as God is. Jeffrey Niehaus is a sure-footed guide through the complexities of some of the scholarly discussion because he never loses sight of what is really important. This is a study that will richly reward a careful reading.”

Schaeffer on the Christian Life
Christian Living
“An engaging, fascinating account, seasoned with unusual insight into one of the truly original apologists of our time.”
Theology
“I appreciate Dr. Andrew Gabriel as a colleague who shares his insight and perspectives with wisdom, honesty, and a good sense of humor. In Simply Spirit-Filled Andrew brings wholeness, passion, and wisdom to a reader’s understanding of life in the Spirit. It is enhanced by being couched within the crucible of his own journey. There is a practicality and openness regarding the Spirit’s person and work that will contribute to both the experienced believer and to those who are seeking to understand life in the Spirit.”
Sinners in the Hands of a Good God
Theology
“The story of God's gracious pursuit of the sinner leads us into many deep questions about the relation of His purposes to human inability. His love to His holiness, and His mercy to His justice. This book explores these matters biblically, theologically, and pastorally in a way that is both brave and helpful.”
Teaching the Faith, Forming the Faithful
Discipleship & Christian Education
“A clarion call to the church to teach the Scriptures, learn what they teach and practice their truth. This is a challenge we need to heed today. Ours is a time when authentic faith is often overwhelmed by the triviality of our culture, by fascination with technique in our churches and by confusion as to what it means to be God's people in our own time. I therefore welcome this study!”
