The Bible vs. Biblical Womanhood

Theology

“Philip Payne has produced a most readable book on a most controversial topic which brings clarity with lucid writing, careful explanation, and good organization. It contains new research that has yet to appear in print. This work is a most helpful contribution for helping evangelical Christians find their way through this thicket of controversial teachings. For an up to date, readable, and enjoyable presentation of the egalitarian case, this is the book to read.”

The Devout Life

History & Biography

“Roger Helland has written an engaging and stirring call to actually live the sanctified life as described in Scripture and experienced and taught by holy men and women down throughout the ages, particularly those in the Pietist tradition. I heartily recommend it. If read and applied, it would lead to the cure for so much staleness and bondage in the lives of believers and to the experience of a deeper experience of the presence of Christ. He has made a rich offering, especially to the evangelical Christian.”

The Genre, Composition, and Hermeneutics of the Epistle of James

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Cheung has mastered both the literature on James and that on the relevant Jewish and Hellenistic backgrounds. He has provided a creative new look at the problems of genre and structure that have plagued the study of James. His contribution is a welcome one, which we will be digesting for some time given the significance of his proposals and the extent of his evidence. This work will be required reading for any future scholar wishing to write on James. Hopefully it will lay to rest some of the misperceptions that have been foisted on James ever since Luther.”

The God Who Judges and Saves

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Matthew Harmon has written a carefully organized biblical-theological exposition of 2 Peter and Jude from his conservative evangelical perspective.”

The Gospel

Theology

“There is a lot of talk about what is the gospel and who is ‘in’ and who is ‘out’ because of their definition. Douglas Kennard has done an admirable job of discussing book by book what the New Testament identifies as ‘good news’ or ‘salvation’ and portraying it against a Jewish backdrop. He has had to be selective, but does succeed in this biblical theology in showing both the unity and diversity in the biblical good news.”

Vox Petri

Theology

“Gene Green has capped his long-time interest in the Petrine literature with this work that first tries to establish the sources for Petrine thought and then tries to draw out their theology. While he brackets discussing 2 Peter (a book in itself) the rest is here: Mark, Peter in Acts, Pauline reference to Peter, and, of course, 1 Peter. This is not a naive gathering of all possible source material, but a critical defense of the nature and analysis of the content of the various sources. It will be controversial, and Professor Green knows that, but it is scholarly, aware, and passionately reasoned. I recommend this work to anyone interested in the teaching and theology of the apostle Peter, and the controversies surrounding it.”
