Foreword

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“The book of Psalms is green pastures and still waters for real people in hard times. More Precious Than Gold provides what no money can buy-direct personal access to the refreshment God gives only through his Word.”

Newton on the Christian Life

Christian Living

“The Christian life is Christ, as John Newton clarified so helpfully. If you are still treating Christianity as a strategy for your own self-improvement, this book will not satisfy you. But if you have despaired of yourself and are now clinging only to Christ, this book will refresh you. Newton’s practical counsel, brought vividly to life again by Tony Reinke, will lead you into the green pastures and beside the still waters that are, at this moment, awaiting you in your all-sufficient Savior. For some readers, this book may just become the most important book, outside the Bible, they will ever read.”

Prayer

Church Leadership & Ministry

“The early church moved forward in power because they were a praying church (Acts 4:31). If we today are so proficient at ministry mechanics that we can succeed without power from on high, we have failed. But if our churches today will heed this compelling call to prayer by John Onwuchekwa, we too will prevail against all earthly powers, for God’s glory!”

Preaching Christ from Daniel

Preaching & Worship

“Pastors today are rediscovering how to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ from the entire Bible, cover to cover. One of the foremost scholars leading us in this exciting adventure is Sidney Greidanus. . . . Thanks to his Preaching Christ from Daniel, we pastors are better equipped to preach our triumphant Christ to suffering and persecuted people.”

Preaching Christ from Leviticus

Preaching & Worship

Preaching Christ from Psalms

Preaching & Worship

“The Lord is accomplishing a great work of gospel resurgence in our generation. Sidney Greidanus in particular has contributed by helping us pastors preach the Christian gospel accurately and confidently from the entire Bible. Now Greidanus has increased our debt of gratitude with Preaching Christ from Psalms. I expect this book to have a lasting impact not only because of the perennial appeal of the Psalms but also because of the insightful ways Greidanus connects the Psalms with Jesus and his gospel.”

Proclaiming Christ in a Pluralistic Age

Theology

“J. I. Packer set a high standard for proclaiming the gospel of Christ. His arguments were gracious but never cowardly, strong but never strident, faithful but never repetitive. Now with the publication of his 1978 lectures, we are all enriched more deeply for ‘the defense and confirmation of the gospel’ (Phil. 1:7) in our generation.”

Reactivity

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Every day we find ourselves walking through a minefield of online rage. But now our friend Paul Tripp helps us turn from that ‘culture of toxic reactivity’ toward a community of life-giving response to Jesus. What could be more attractive—or urgently needed?”

Saved to Sin No More

Christian Living

“The doctrine of union with Christ declares to us Christians that God has so removed every barrier that we are forever safe within the total salvation that Christ has accomplished. Pastor Brad Wetherell invites us into this strong assurance. May your heart be thrilled by all that is now yours in Christ!”

The Assurance of Salvation

Theology

“Am I really a Christian? Jesus might be real. But am I?” This bewildering, terrifying, common experience is why Robert Peterson has written The Assurance of Salvation: Biblical Hope for Our Struggles. This honest and biblical book guides us away from saying to God, “But this time I really mean it,” and toward hearing God say to us, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

The Gospel Comes with a House Key

Evangelism & Missions

“God strongly advances his cause by raising up prophetic voices of fresh insight, bold words, and powerful impact. Rosaria Butterfield is just such a voice for God in our time. The Gospel Comes with a House Key is Rosaria’s heart reaching out to our hearts, calling us to love our neighbors with sacrificial hospitality. This book is going to shake us all up in the most wonderfully destabilizing way.”

The Message of the Old Testament

Christian Living

“To hear the Bible tell its own story in its own way—this is the obvious but all-too-rare strategy for reading the Book of books. I thank Mark Dever for showing us how. We are immeasurably enriched.”

The Pastor as Counselor

Church Leadership & Ministry

“When our preaching reaches people’s hearts with the gospel, it raises as many questions as it answers. That’s where our pastoral counseling comes in—gentle, honest conversations with sinners and sufferers who want Jesus at their personal point of need. David Powlison is a faithful guide, helping us pastors fulfill this deeper ministry, where people get traction for newness of life.”

This Momentary Marriage

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Theologically, this book exalts human marriage as a metaphor for the ultimate love story in Christ. Practically, it applies that glorious vision of grace to our daily experiences in marriage, singleness, parenthood, and the most universal of human realities-sin. This book opens our eyes and guides our feet with the grace of Christ.”

Tough Topics

Christian Living

“Tough Topics offers every questioning person an opportunity to press thoughtfully into the Bible’s answers. Sam Storms is that rare guide we all are looking for—fair-minded, with no axe to grind. I cheerfully commend Tough Topics for your tough questions!”

Truth and Power

Theology

“We can read the Bible in one of two ways. Either we scrutinize it, looking for its oppressive claims and dated errors. Or we receive the Bible as a shaft of light coming down from God above, illuminating our path in this dark world, strengthening us with courage and guiding us safely home. With reasoned argument and prophetic boldness, J. I. Packer helps us break free from that first mentality and enter into the joy of the second. His book is now more relevant than ever.”
