Evangelism & Missions
“McNeil sensitively shows us that if our love for Christ doesn't extend to caring for our cities and for the poor, if there isn't a commitment to racial reconciliation and justice as well as passionate concern for personal salvation, then our witness will be ineffective. This is an important contribution to the field of evangelism. I recommend it enthusiastically!”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“What I love about this book is that Mittelberg provides not only strategies and practical help for churches that want to get off the dime and become evangelizing centers—but he urges us to not forget the absolute necessity of prayer and dependence on the Holy Spirit. His love for God and his heart for the lost bubble over on every page!”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The skeptic would argue that the Bible was written in a time and culture so different from ours that its prescriptions are no longer valid or relevant for us. But truth be told, the New Testament world was characterized by as much sexual freedom as we have today. In our age of 'whatever floats your boat,' Caroline Simon makes the virtuous life appealing, worth pursuing and ultimately profoundly satisfying.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“America is a culture obsessed with freedom and rights, so why do so many find themselves in bondage? Jesus came to set us free from sin and death--but how can we live in the freedom he secured for us? Lynne Baab's wonderful book reminds us that Christians throughout history have used fasting as a path to freedom--for it enables God to speak in fresh ways and fills us anew with his Spirit. In a style we've come to expect from Baab, her book is intellectually stimulating, spiritually enriching, historically and biblically informative, and practical. Fasting leaves the reader feeling not I ought to do this but I want to do this!”
Bible Studies & Devotionals
“To be a Christian of depth and substance we must first understand what we believe. Here is an exciting discipleship tool that delivers sound, biblical theology in a way that is compelling and fresh! Grounded in the Faith offers a great corrective to our message-lite and method-driven culture. I know it will benefit not only the young Christian but the mature believer as well.”
How to Talk about Jesus (Without Being That Guy)
Evangelism & Missions
“This is a delightful book and perfect for anyone who thinks evangelism is beyond their pay grade! Sam Chan motivates and equips all believers—regardless of gifting or temperament—in how to reach the hard-to-reach in today’s challenging post-Christian culture. His eight tips are illuminating, thoughtful yet practical, culturally relevant, biblically faithful, and relationally effective. I loved the book, and I think you will too!”
History & Biography
“We hear a great deal today about the need to be relevant. What the Doctor so powerfully demonstrated through his preaching and books is that to be always relevant one must be biblical. My hope is that this first-rate book will introduce a new generation of readers to Dr. Martyn Lloyd Jones, whose message and methodology is as relevant and needed today as it was in his time.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“This is a profound, realistic and hopeful book that reminds us that even in the darkest times the power of the gospel can change the world. Guinness issues a clarion call to the Christian West to take up the battle against secularization by refusing to be conformed to the spirit of the age. We do not isolate ourselves from culture. Rather, Guinness calls for renewal: in our confidence in God, in the power of the gospel and in the great truths of Scripture, even as we engage with the world around us. No other writer I know offers such a rich background of astute cultural analysis combined with a deep understanding of history. I finished this book feeling a deep sense of hope, which was fortified by his powerful prayers at the end of each chapter. If we heed the wisdom in this marvelous book, we could well become effective agents for Christ for such a time as this.”
Christian Living
“The Fight helped me immeasurably in my early days as a new Christian—and it continues to encourage me now. In short, The Fight is timeless and still a must-read!”
Christian Living
“Like a skilled eye doctor, Eugene Peterson turns the lens that clears our vision and enables us to discriminate between reality and fantasy, to see what satisfies and what leads to bondage.”
