Cultivating Mentors

Discipleship & Christian Education

“The editors of Cultivating Mentors have enlisted an outstanding group of experienced Christian educators who highlight the challenges of the younger generation of Christians, in particular Millennials and Gen Z, as revealed in thousands of interviews conducted by the Barna Group. The authors provide specific proposals to administrators for providing helpful mentoring for junior faculty at Christian colleges.”

My Father's World

History & Biography

“My Father's World, edited by John D. Wineland, Mark Ziese, and James Estep is a worthy tribute to the life and career of their teacher, Reuben G. Bullard (d. 2004), who sought and succeeded in changing the lives of his students by his passion for learning about his Father's world and his devotion to God's Word. Affectionately known as Dr. Rock, Reuben was the very first geologist to participate in an archaeological dig.”

Roman Crucifixion and the Death of Jesus

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Woodrow Kroll has comprehensively treated the many details of the trials, the death, and the burial of Jesus. He has extensively examined ancient sources and the scholarly treatments by scholars of many persuasions. He has clearly set forth his conclusions with many helpful tabular lists and apposite quotations. As one who has also researched and written on these topics, I have learned much from his excellent exposition.”

Six Biblical Plays for Contemporary Audiences

Arts & Literature

“Robin Gallaher Branch has written six plays which Christians will enjoy enacting as their audiences gain fresh insights into the significance of familiar biblical texts. The profound scholarship displayed in her annotations enables her to understand accurately the background of these texts. She correctly depicts Elizabeth and Mary as young teenagers at the time they were wed. She empathetically describes their emotions: Elizabeth while suffering the anguish of barrenness and Mary while living under the suspicion of being an adulteress. Her plays based on characters from Proverbs and on the parts of the body of Christ personified display wit and humor.”

Three Skeptics and the Bible

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“No other analysis has pursued the historical roots of biblical criticism in the sixteenth century so brilliantly as Jeffrey L. Morrow's Three Skeptics and the Bible. He persuasively argues that the Thirty Years' War influenced La Peyrere, Hobbes, and Spinoza to develop methods of analyzing Scripture to promote their political agendas. Morrow's erudite and persuasive study exposes the fallacy of regarding biblical criticism as an 'objective' approach to the Bible.”

Walking with Jesus on Campus

Christian Living

“Stephen Kellough draws upon his twenty-five years of counseling students at Wheaton College to provide a helpful guide for Christian students who may struggle with the challenges of the college experience. He shows that issues such as doubt and depression are not uncommon, and points to relevant Scriptures and sage advice from Christian authors to enable students to walk joyfully with Jesus.”
