Angels

Theology

“Dr. Angel has brought us a remarkably sure-footed and well-argued book on a subject about which there is growing interest but little knowledge. Using the writings of Second Temple Judaism, he introduces us to angels and what they are said to do. He tackles popular misconceptions and gives space to those with whom he disagrees. His work sheds light on many difficult New Testament texts. This will become a leader in its field.”

Playing with Dragons

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Angel has that rare gift of writing with great scholarship about the texts, but in a compelling way, and so that we meet him as a fellow pilgrim. Biblical texts we often gloss over spring to life as we see how 'monster stories' are used to face the age-long question about appalling suffering, 'Is God really in control?' The texts call us to complete honesty in prayerful lament, to trust, and not to give evil the last word.”

The Church Militant

Theology

“This book is a gold mine. Where else will I find a scholarly but readable tour de force about the experiential, philosophical, biblical, and theological aspects of the battle with evil as understood in the charismatic churches of the UK since the 1970s? The writer records interviews with well-known practitioners. He considers with an open mind the critical views of established scholars. Ultimately, he emerges with carefully nuanced support for the traditional and orthodox understanding of Satan and the demonic realm. Excellent!”

The Jesus You Really Didn’t Know

“How we have needed this book! On almost every page a powerful word leaps out putting succinctly the truth we have avoided for so long. This is a prophetic challenge to a church culture which so often ignores Jesus’ words on judgment and finds them unacceptable. Andy takes us carefully through the teaching. Then he demonstrates how Jesus, as one always alongside us, with both gentleness and humility, teaches us to be fully obedient disciples, those who will joyfully stand on the day of judgment. Who would not want this!”
