A Biblical Case against Theistic Evolution
Theology
“Wayne Grudem has assembled an impressive group of biblical and theological scholars to address one of the most important issues of our time. The book is especially valuable for its careful characterization of theistic evolution and the following case that theistic evolution is simply not consistent with the teachings of the Bible. I highly recommend this important book.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“A Change of Affection is one of the most powerful, awe-inspiring stories I have ever read. It will bring you to tears, strengthen your confidence in God’s power to change lives, and create in you a greater hunger to make Jesus the Lord of your life. The book is just flat-out hard to put down! It is not only interesting and inspirational, but Becket Cook also teaches us a lot about the nature and importance of discipleship unto the Lord Jesus. Put simply, it is a biblically and transformationally rich account of Cook’s incredible journey. I highly recommend it.”
A Counselor's Guide to Christian Mindfulness
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“Having experienced my share of anxiety and depression over the decades, I have learned much of considerable help from extrabiblical sources as long as they did not contradict the authoritative inerrant Word of God and seemed wise and sensible. Among the help I received was psychological teaching about mindfulness. While the secular approach was helpful, it was also limited, sometimes misleading, and required care to apply. For years, I have longed for Christian thinkers to write a book on the biblical basis of and distinctively Christian approach to mindfulness. With this book, my prayers have been answered. This is the only book of its kind and should be central reading to all who want to grow spiritually and emotionally in a healthy and Christian way.”
Christian Living
“I am really excited about A Good and True Story. It draws the reader in as if it were a novel. It is accessible, conversational, and full of stories and illustrations. Moreover, the amount of research and breadth of topics covered are impressive. While this book will make apologetics accessible to a broad Christian audience, its main purpose is achieved with excellence: to have an honest, thoughtful conversation with an unbeliever so he or she will have to consider the credentials of Christianity. This is now the best book to give to an unbelieving friend or relative. I loved reading this book, and so will you.”
A Little Book for New Philosophers
Philosophy
“Over the last decade or so, professor Copan has risen in stature among Christians and non-Christians alike. Many look to him for counsel, for intellectual help and for spiritual wisdom. All of this and much more is incorporated into his delightful little book A Little Book for New Philosophers. Written with the warmth and wisdom of a pastor, yet exhibiting knowledge of an incredibly wide range of relevant philosophical literature, Copan has written the most important book to date asto what philosophy actually is (and should be) and why it is so important for all of us to study philosophy. This should be read by seminarians, people in vocational ministry and thoughtful lay folk, and is required reading as a text in worldview or apologetics classes. Today, the kingdom is moving in philosophy, and Copan's book will expand that movement considerably. What a delightful read!”
Apologetics
“Before I started reading A Recipe for Disaster, I expected it to be just another apologetics book. Wow, was I in for a shock! Marriott provides believers and those who have left the faith with a deep, accurate analysis of why people deconvert, what can be done to keep this from happening, and how we can reclaim those who have left the faith. To be honest, there is simply no book of its kind, and A Recipe for Disaster fills a big hole in our understanding of the deconversion problem. This is a must read for parents, pastors, and parachurch leaders. Be ready for a surprise. The book will challenge you to see discipleship and the dangers surrounding its employment in a new light.”
Apologetics
“Johnson and Reynolds are provocateurs in the best sense of that word, and Against All Gods is sure to arouse considerable debate and reflection. This is not another apologetic response to the new atheists. It is a cultural analysis and critique of their claims. It reads like a detective novel and conveys powerful, important ideas to the reader. I couldn't put it down.”
History & Biography
“I knew Dallas Willard very well. He supervised my dissertation at USC, and upon graduation in 1985, he and Jane seemed to adopt my wife and me as their children. Those who did not know Dallas in person can get a good sense of him from his lectures and writings. But what has been a gnawing omission is the details of his life made available to the public—until now. Gary Moon's incredible book Becoming Dallas Willard fills this void and more. It is a first-rate, accurate, honest, timely, and riveting biography. If you enjoy Dallas's lectures and writings, you need to read this book. I am so thankful to Gary for doing such a careful and painstakingly accurate treatment of the life of the greatest man I ever met.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Peter S. Williams is a quintessential researcher on the historical Jesus, and Behold the Man is the sort of high-quality, rigorous, and fascinating treatise we have come to expect from him. However, what makes this book absolutely unique is Williams’s expertise in philosophy and the deft way he interweaves the two disciplines. The result is a tour de force on the interplay between worldview assumptions and the task of explaining and interpreting historical facts in an objective way.”
Apologetics
“Chad Meister is a force to be reckoned with, and this delightful little book is a timely resource to be studied by Christians and given to non-Christians.”
Apologetics
“The first edition of Groothuis's massive work, Christian Apologetics, rose quickly to the top of the pack. But this revised second edition is over the top. Encyclopedic in its range, careful and precise in its argumentation, and readily accessible to a wide audience, this is the go-to book in Christian apologetics. Since it is thoroughly updated and expanded with important new topics, if you have the first edition, you really need to get this one. Thanks go to Groothuis for exerting such a Herculean effort to bring us up to date and serve God's people.”
Christian Philosophy as a Way of Life
Theology
“Ross Inman has established himself as one of the leading evangelical philosophers; moreover, he exudes a love for Jesus and a passion for communicating difficult ideas to a broad audience in an accessible way. To be completely honest, Christian Philosophy as a Way of Life is one of the best (if not the best) introductions to philosophy I have ever read. I was taking notes all the way through! Inman presents philosophy as an immensely practical field with tremendous benefits for living a flourishing, healthy life. While he covers the important foundational topics, this is no ordinary introductory text. It is chock-full of new ideas and rich, life-giving help, all done in a conversational style. Wow, I love this book!”
Apologetics
“'Cold-Case Christianity' reads like the fast-paced detective drama it actually is. The book is chocked full of interesting evidence and arguments, and it is unique among the literature in exhibiting a legal-reasoning approach to the evidence for and against historic Christianity. I enthusiastically endorse this great book and thank J. Warner Wallace for his excellent work.”

Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“This is the most important book I have recommended in over twenty years. I have known Professor Williams for many years as a graduate student, friend, and faculty colleague. He is recognized as a person who walks what he talks. Thus, he brings biblical rigor, fidelity, cultural sensitivity, and concern to the topics in this book. It is now the go-to resource for clear, biblical thinking about social justice. I know of no other evangelical book with such rigor, insight, biblical fidelity, ethical maturity, and breadth of coverage as this one. This is the book for you!”

Apologetics
“The time is long past when we have needed a very careful, thoroughly documented analysis and response to the claims of young earth creationists. But with this book, I am delighted to say that that time has come. Its same thoughtful handling of evolutionary creationism makes Controversy of the Ages a critical read for evangelicals wending their way through the confusion. I am very enthusiastic about the scholarship, careful treatment, and irenic tone of this book and highly recommend it.”
Theology
“Dallas Willard was my dissertation supervisor and a very close friend. He was the most Christlike person I ever met. He was also a thoroughly Christian thinker who often came up with biblically faithful, creative writing and developed new angles and nuances that others had not seen. These were refreshing, insightful, intellectually rich, and wonderfully practical. The problem is that his views about God are sprinkled here and there throughout his writings. Very few people have the time or skills to dig up and integrate all of them. Here is where Robb's book becomes a unique treasure given to God's people. If you want to understand and bask in Willard's view of God, this is the only place to go. I highly recommend this delightful book.”
