Christian Living
“Bright Hope for Tomorrow is a marvelous book about a glorious topic: the return of Jesus. Chris Davis offers insights that are theologically rich, elegantly expressed, practical, and personal. In an age when far too many Christians have embraced the idols of this world, Davis reminds us we’re citizens of heaven. That truth, so beautifully expressed in this book, has the power to transform lives.”
Christian Living
“Scott Sauls, a minister who became an ‘accidental author,’ is marvelous at both callings. Irresistible Faith shows why. It is a compelling, honest, transparent, and deeply hopeful book. Scott’s perspective helps us see ancient truths in fresh ways. Written in a way that is accessible and thoughtful, balanced and winsome, Scott allows the Christian faith to speak for itself, to come alive, to make it relevant to the here and now. In an age when too many Christians are discrediting their faith, Scott is modeling what it should be. That is a gift to the rest of us.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Just Immigration is an outstanding book—comprehensive, measured, fair-minded, and enlightening. It deals with a controversial issue in a sophisticated and nuanced way. In assessing the role of Christian churches in the contemporary policy debate over immigration, Mark Amstutz offers a thoughtful perspective on the subject. His Christian faith informs his politics without being distorted by politics. Anyone who cares about immigration should read this book.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“Anxiety is a widespread but not well understood condition. Curtis Chang, who has struggled with anxiety throughout his life, has written a book on anxiety that is sophisticated and sensitive, transparent and vulnerable, practical and faithful. The Anxiety Opportunity helps readers think about anxiety differently—constructively and biblically. Curtis has given us a gift—showing us how a problem can become an opportunity for spiritual growth. He has written a marvelous and necessary book.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The Bible and the Ballot is a book where Tremper Longman III’s biblical scholarship, wisdom, and intellectual integrity converge. His goal is less to tell you what to think than to explain how to think, in a way that is faithful, theologically rigorous, and authentically biblical. In an era when many politically engaged evangelical Christians are discrediting their faith, Tremper Longman honors it.”
The Destruction of the Canaanites
Apologetics
“Charlie Trimm’s The Destruction of the Canaanites takes some very difficult verses from the Old Testament and deals with them in an intellectually and theologically fair-minded way. Trimm presents different views in an even-handed manner, mentioning their strengths and weaknesses, all the while staying away from one-sided advocacy. He doesn’t tell readers how to think; he gives them different, competing views that allow them to think for themselves and to discuss with others. Too often Christians want to shut debates down; Charlie Trimm wants to elevate them, and in this book he does.”
History & Biography
“The Evangelical Imagination is a marvelous book—thoughtful, elegantly written, literate, and timely. Karen Swallow Prior understands the essential role of the imagination in the search for truth. An evangelical herself, Prior has done a masterful job of identifying the unstated assumptions that have shaped evangelical Christianity. In doing so, she is performing a profoundly important service: separating Christ from Christian culture, including some of the most deforming aspects of Christian culture. American evangelicalism is in crisis; The Evangelical Imagination helps us to understand why and what needs to be done to make it an instrument of grace in a world that desperately needs it.”
The Religion of American Greatness
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The Religion of American Greatness is a superb and essential book—engaging and fair minded, thoughtful and accessible, and oh so timely. It both explains and challenges an increasingly widespread, malicious movement—toxic Christian nationalism—that is doing great harm to America and to the Christian witness. The Religion of American Greatness is powerfully argued, honest, and never ungracious. It's just the book we need, and Paul D. Miller is just the person to write it.”
History & Biography
“What Went Wrong? is a superb book—thoughtful and informed, wise and riveting, and oh-so-timely. Philip Yancey and John Bernbaum, having both spent time in Russia and Ukraine, know of what they speak. What Went Wrong? is a deeply personal testimony by two extraordinary individuals, men of deep Christian faith, and a contribution to our understanding of the history of our times.”
