Preaching & Worship
“Tired of the same-old, same-old nostrums on sermonizing? Try listening to a senior Christian scholar who has sat listening to thousands of sermons but now applies lessons from his own discipline to the art of preaching. Unlike many academics, he writes like a charm and makes us preachers sit up and take notice.”
Sermons by Jonathan Edwards on the Church, Volume 1
History & Biography
“This is an important addition to our printed collection of Edwards’s thinking on the church. It is a topic that has not been given its just due in the last decades of the Edwards renaissance. But this volume, led by Minkema and Kimnach, two of the world’s most knowledgeable experts on America’s theologian, is a goldmine for future exploration.”
Theology
“It is providential that the reunification of Jerusalem after two thousand years came in the same decade as the birth of a new movement of messianic Judaism, which is the necessary link between two expressions of the Messiah’s Body—his gentile followers in the church and his Jewish followers in Israel. This book is essential for understanding the most exciting new chapter in the history of redemption through the mind of this most gifted thinker.”
Christian Living
“This is a book not only about suffering but about the gospel of Jesus. We all need to understand the cup of which Erlandson writes, for we will all drink from it. But only if we understand it will we experience its joy. Hence the value of this book.”
The Conversion and Therapy of Desire
Theology
“In this age when 'desire' is defined in ways that are destructive to souls and families, we could hardly do better than to retrieve understandings of the word from Augustine, perhaps the greatest Christian thinker ever. Dr. Boone's fine study is both historically rich and eminently timely.”
Theology
“This tome by Michael McClymond is a theological bombshell. The first-ever complete history of the doctrine of universal salvation, it is a devastating demolition of the supposition that universalism can be sustained with exegetical or systematic integrity.”
Theology
“This book is an example of a thoughtful sacramental Christian engaging revelation and this world, and coming up with a vision of life in the Triune God on this earth. Not all will agree with the way Win Mott thinks through the political implications of the gospel, but every reader will profit from Mott's sacramental reading of the church seasons and life on this earth.”
The Future Restoration of Israel
Theology
“Tectonic plates are shifting. Scholarly discussion of a future restoration of Israel once was the preserve of a tiny few despised by the rest of the academy. This fascinating collection shows that more and more distinguished scholars from many different disciplines see in Scripture and theology signs of this once-taboo subject that can no longer be ignored.”
The Heritage of Anglican Theology
Theology
“Anglicanism long ago became global. No history of Anglicanism can ignore the towering figure of J. I. Packer, who has had a significant influence on Anglicans in both the Global North and the Global South. This giant’s presentation of Anglican theology will help us all understand how large numbers of this growing church think about the triune God and his ways with his people and his world. It will also inspire and edify.”
The Quran with Christian Commentary
World Religions
“for Christians to appear this year. This translation of the Quran contains commentary by Gordon Nickel, a foremost scholar of Islam who lived among Muslims for many years. The commentary is immensely informed, fair, and accessible. Every class on Islam ought to use this text.”
The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self
Theology
“Moderns, especially Christian moderns, wonder how our society arrived at this strange moment when nearly everything about the self and sexuality that our grandparents believed is ridiculed. This genealogy of culture, clearly and elegantly written, will help all of us understand how we got to where we are, so that we can plot our own futures with more clarity and confidence. This book is a must-read for Christians and all others who are disturbed by the dictatorship of relativism that surrounds us.”
Theologies of the American Revivalists
History & Biography
“How can we explain the transformation of American revivalism between Edwards and Finney? Why did Americans move from eighteenth-century convictions about the bondage of the will to nineteenth-century confidence in the will's freedom? What drove the transformation of American theology from systematic constructs to common-sense approaches? Caldwell's study provides new answers to these important questions. It is an immensely helpful work of historical theology that is well researched and clearly written. Recommended for all students of American religion and theology.”
Arts & Literature
“Who would have thought that there would be a way to connect smartphones to the ancient world of the Bible? Professor Alexenberg has the expertise and experience to do so. This is a unique and fascinating book.”
Dr.
To Understand Things as Well as Words
Discipleship & Christian Education
“John Van Wyk has done two things for his readers. In a meticulously researched and well-written volume he has both provided a solid introduction to Edwards the prodigious thinker and contributed a first-ever analysis of Edwards the educator.”
Transformed into the Same Image
Theology
“This book will help Protestant theologians, especially evangelicals, see that forensic justification might not be the heart of the gospel or biblical theology. Therefore, this book has the potential of advancing ecumenical understanding among orthodox Christians. Recommended for all those interested in biblical and systematic theology.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“This is an important book. In an era when Christians are tempted to think that pacifism is the biblical and responsible position of a Jesus-follower, this volume makes a reasoned and erudite argument to the contrary. It makes available to readers a wealth of scholarship in a format that is inviting to the nonspecialist. I recommend this book for university courses in political science and ethics, to Sunday school classes on contemporary issues, and to thinking Christians considering one of our most urgent societal debates.”
Theology
“This is a sensitive, patient, sophisticated evangelical response to evangelical questions concerning the religions. Tiessen takes the biblical witness with utter seriousness--a seriousness lacking in most books on this and related subjects. Those from the Reformed tradition will be especially pleased with the nuanced attention given to problems of salvation and revelation in the religions.”
