Cultural Contextualization of Apologetics
Apologetics
“Presuppositional? Evidential? Classical? Matt Lee recognizes that none of these approaches quite fits the apologetics of the apostle Paul or the earliest Christian apologists, and he offers one way that all of the models might coexist in a culturally contextualized approach.”
Theology
“You may or may not be convinced by the Reformed formulation of divine inculpability that J.P. Macabasco articulates in this book. Nevertheless, the author clearly shows how the charge that God is the author of evil can be effectively answered. Not only that, but this answer does not necessitate any compromise in a confessional Reformed understanding of divine providence.”
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“There is a need and a place for books about how to implement family-equipping ministry in the local church, but that’s not what this book provides. Family Discipleship fills a very different need that’s every bit as important as field guides for churches: it provides parents with the simple and practical tools that they need to disciple their children. Richard Baxter once pointed out to pastors that if they will train parents to disciple their children, these practices of family discipleship ‘will not only spare you a great deal of labor, but will much further the success of your labors’ as a pastor. This book then provides pastors with a simple way to ‘further the success’ of their labors.”
Christian Living
“In seeking to develop gospel-driven family ministry, there’s an unavoidable question that too few resources have clearly answered: How do we develop a church culture that equips and mobilizes men? In Family Shepherds, Voddie Baucham goes beyond surface-level solutions that identify biblical masculinity with everything from watching mixed-martial arts to participating in emotionally-charged stadium events. What Voddie provides instead is a simple and straightforward biblical vision for equipping men to embrace their God-ordained roles as servant-leaders. This vision flows from Voddie’s commitment to articulate biblically what it means for men to shepherd their families well.”
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“What Josh Mulvihill provides here takes a significant step in the direction of developing a new vision for grandparents in our families. This book is packed with solid biblical foundations. Read this work carefully, constantly seeking ways you can be more effective as a disciple-maker in the lives of your grandchildren and in the life of the church.”
Keeping Your Children's Ministry on Mission
Church Leadership & Ministry
“For years, when students have asked me, ‘What’s the one children’s ministry book that I should read first?’ I couldn’t recommend just one. Instead, I recommended three: one about organization, one about teaching, and one about keeping children safe. Now I can recommend just one to read first because Jared Kennedy has managed to fit all of those essential elements into a single book!”
Myths and Mistakes in New Testament Textual Criticism
Apologetics
“Early in my work as an apologist, I made an embarrassing number of mistakes when it came to comments about textual criticism. In almost every instance, a book like this one would have provided the broader perspective that I needed to speak the truth with greater precision. What Elijah Hixson and Peter Gurry have provided in this handbook is a tool that every would-be defender of the Christian faith should purchase and regularly consult. Sloppy defenses of the truth always end up diminishing the truth instead of exalting the truth. Myths and Mistakes in New Testament Textual Criticism will equip you to leave behind sloppy defenses of Scripture when it comes to textual criticism.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Reinhardt speaks with the heart of a Christian leader, the experience of a retired law-enforcement officer, and the wisdom of a scholar. He not only recognizes real problems in police culture but also provides hope for a better way. Readers are not likely to agree with all his conclusions, but his analysis of the problems is compelling and the uniqueness of his solution is challenging.”
Apologetics
“What an outstanding guide to the practice of cultural apologetics! The Gospel After Christendom equips church leaders to live as wise cultural climatologists, adapting their witness to the unchanging glories of Jesus to face the challenges of ever-changing cultural contexts. The authors are well aware of the challenges of our current moment, but they do not give in to pessimism or panic. The result is a resource that is clear and yet kind, uncompromising but still meek, concerned with current challenges and still rich with hope.”
Theology
“Patrick Schreiner’s The Hope of the Resurrection isn’t merely a defense of the historical truth of the risen Jesus—although Schreiner certainly provides that along the way. It’s also a celebration of the beauty and the goodness of the resurrection, coupled with a clear call to live in light of the resurrection. In a world where not only the truth of the faith is being challenged but also its goodness, this celebration may be the strongest defense of all.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“God’s design for the church has always been a plurality of elders—but that doesn’t mean plurality is easy. Dave Harvey knows this, and he has provided this straightforward guide to help you cultivate effective plurality in leadership.”
History & Biography
“Jared Kennedy has crafted a fast-paced, fact-based guide to the life of Martin Luther, suitable for children yet worthwhile for any age. Luther is depicted as a man dependent on divine grace whose life was marked by both faith and failures.”
