This comprehensive exploration of the language of prophecy and apocalyptic will prove to be valuable for many.”

Throughout the pages of Spirit Wind, readers are given a multi-perspective look at this key doctrine from the vantage points of biblical theology, historical theology, and cultural/pastoral theology. Shaped by an unapologetic commitment to scriptural authority as well as a particular focus on Chinese theology, this engaging volume will be a blessing for theologians and missiologists as well as for pastors and students.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Stewardship for the Care of Souls is a wonderful book that will help pastors, church leaders, and individuals think wisely and biblically, rather than merely pragmatically, about the importance of stewardship in all aspects of our life, including, but not limited to finances. Nathan Meador and Heath Curtis bring years of pastoral ministry experience to this project, weaving together theological commitments, biblical understanding, wisdom from their years of service, and insightful counsel for teaching and addressing these vitally important issues in the life of a congregation. This brief volume is another excellent contribution to the outstanding Lexham Ministry Series.”

Foreword
(wrote the foreword)
Work, Money & Leadership
“Matthias has written a thoughtful, reflective, and instructive guide for Christian teachers. While this book has wide-ranging application for educators and Christians in other fields of service, the carefully-designed chapters in this volume provide wise counsel particularly and especially for those struggling with the very real tensions, antinomies, and challenges of carrying out one's calling in the classroom each and every day, semester after semester.”
Theology
“Morgan and Peterson are to be commended for putting together another outstanding volume for Crossway's Theology in Community series. The editors have assembled a first-rate group of authors to produce this highly commendable volume. The subject of the deity of Christ is carefully explored and clearly expounded from the perspectives of biblical, historical, and systematic theology. Important and timely applications for apologetics and missiology are also appropriately included. The deity of Christ is an essential doctrine of the Christian faith and The Deity of Christ should be essential reading for faithful followers of Jesus Christ.”
