Church Leadership & Ministry
“Cameron Shaffer has written a generously diagnostic, biblically sound, and consistently edifying book that is as timely as it is helpful. We have needed an accessible, reliable guide to passing the faith down to the next generation(s) that is neither reactionary to problematic modern church practices nor blindly devoted to the better, older ways, and now we have it. Shaffer refreshingly—and rightly!—commends the old-new way of long-standing but recently forgotten Reformed conviction: the centrality of a healthy congregational, pastoral, and parental ecosystem for how God’s garden grows. Pastors, teachers, other church leaders, moms, dads, grandparents, single Christians, older children—it is hard to imagine who doesn’t need this book. I fully expect that those who read it will immediately want to share it, as I do, and that pastors and churches who heed even a little of the solid wisdom found here will be better for it.”

History & Biography
“As a theological and historical reality, the nature of the church necessarily provokes reflection on the theology of history itself, including the complex phenomenon of theological development. It may in fact be here where John Williamson Nevin’s lively and vigorous work is most timely for us today, for the recent revival of interest in Reformed catholicity—if it is to be effective in remedying the dangers of both historicism and biblicism—must advance a robust theology of Scripture in relation to the church. For this reason and others, the appearance of this latest collection of Nevin’s writings is not only most welcome but also a summons to press on in the exploration of questions that remain as fresh and important as ever.”
