Amazing Grace

Theology

“Amazing Grace is a gracious and graceful defense of the doctrines of grace. Although this book began its life as a piece dedicated to helping Southern Baptists understand the dispute between Calvinists and non-Calvinists in their denomination, it should help anyone appreciate why the apprehension of God’s grace must be absolutely central to Christian life and worship. May many, by God’s grace, read it and adopt its wise and irenic posture to the various controversies that a biblically faithful affirmation of grace can arouse.”

Faith, Form, and Fashion

Theology

“Helm's Faith, Form, and Fashion clarifies the stakes involved in abandoning what Helm calls 'Classical Reformed Theology' for postmodernist approaches like Vanhoozer's and Franke's. No doubt, Vanhoozer will have much to say about Helm's take on his position, but Helm's book opens a crucial dialogue for all who care about sound theological articulation of Christian faith.”

God Under Fire

Theology

“James S. Spiegel (Ph.D., Michigan State University), associate professor of philosophy at Taylor University, Upland, Indiana.”

God Under Fire

Theology

“1. SHOULD THE GOD OF HISTORIC CHRISTIANITY BE REPLACED? 2. DOES GOD REVEAL WHO HE ACTUALLY IS?”

God's Glory Alone—The Majestic Heart of Christian Faith and Life

Theology

“This book does much more than defend a reformation slogan. VanDrunen’s examination of soli Deo gloria explores who God is and who God intends us to be. Clearly and occasionally wonderfully written, thorough, wise, and biblically deep, it says so much that Christians in our day should hear that I find myself picturing venues—Sunday School, student discussion groups, class assignments—where I can use it. Read it and grow.”

The Upside Down Kingdom

Christian Living

“What happens if we read the Beatitudes from a relentlessly biblical perspective that interprets them in terms of the unmerited grace God has offered us in Christ? What happens when we read them in terms of what God has done for us in Christ’s cross work, what he is doing in us by the Holy Spirit, and what he will do for the world through us? Chris Castaldo’s The Upside Down Kingdom startles us with the answers. Here is a book that equips us to be the world’s salt and light by helping us learn to live according to the ‘rhythms of heaven’ that beat in God’s own heart.”

Trusting God in the Darkness

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Think of Christopher Ash’s Trusting God in the Darkness as a handbook—a manual to take up in one hand—to be read at first straight through to begin grasping the crucial insights for daily life that the book of Job can convey to God’s people, and then to be read again one chapter at a time with a Bible in your other hand in order to learn what to look for in Job scene after scene. This book, like the book of Job itself, prompts us to lift our eyes from the world’s suffering and rest them on who God—the God of Jesus Christ—is. It is the finest short work on Job I have seen.”
