Charles Simeon of Cambridge

History & Biography

“Charles Simeon’s commitment to expository preaching, personal godliness, and global mission is inspiring. I pray it will continue to influence evangelical ministry for generations to come.”

Christ in Conflict

Theology

“This is, I believe, not only one of John Stott's finest books, but one of the most important to be written in recent decades. In a world which increasingly rejects the concept of truth, and a church often marked by doctrinal indifference, its appeal to submit to Christ's teaching concerning core convictions and his example in arguing for them is urgently needed.”

Expository Exultation

Christian Living

“It is a refreshing change to read a book on preaching that contains almost nothing about technique but rather focuses on the Bible’s teaching about the nature and awesome privilege of the task—and, above all, on the majesty of God, whose servants we are and whose glories we are called to proclaim. Many preachers will be spurred on by these pages, as I have been, to keep giving themselves to the solemn and joyful tasks of explaining Scripture and exulting in God.”

Foundations of Anglican Evangelicalism in Victoria

History & Biography

“Wei-Han Kuan brings to life the early days of the Diocese of Melbourne and the personalities of its founding fathers in this fascinating history. As well as being an instructive account of the past, it contains many important lessons for today.”

Job

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This is the book for any who, like me, have been both fascinated and frightened by Job. Christopher Ash brilliantly engages with the interpretive challenge of understanding the text and the emotional challenge of being confronted by the awful reality of suffering and evil in the world. His exposition combines sober realism about what we can expect in the life of faith and great encouragement as we are pointed to the sufferings and glory of Christ.”

Joshua

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Having been frustrated by so many learned Old Testament commentaries, which may be full of good scholarship but offer little help to preachers, it is a joy to recommend such a fine book, which is so clearly the work of someone who is a very fine preacher himself. It is marked by careful exegesis, which reveals the main thrust of Joshua as a whole and each major section without getting lost in unnecessary details. All the big questions the preacher and congregation will ask are addressed and there are excellent pointers to application. It provides fuel, not only for our preaching, but for our hearts and lives.”

Martyn Lloyd-Jones

History & Biography

“This excellent introduction to Martyn Lloyd-Jones’s life and ministry will not only introduce many to one of the preaching giants of the last century but also inspire us to apply the convictions he held so passionately to our present day. We may well disagree with him at points, as his own grandson admits to doing, but his radical commitment to the principle of sola scriptura, in both doctrine and practice, is urgently needed today.”

Proclaiming the Word

Christian Living

“I don’t know a better trainer of preachers than David Jackman, so I am delighted that his teaching has now been made widely available in this book. It will be a great help, both to novices and experienced practitioners alike.”

Ryle on the Christian Life

Christian Living

“Although he was very much a man of the nineteenth century, J. C. Ryle’s voice still speaks with forceful clarity today. He was an evangelist, both in his ministry to non-Christians, chiefly through numerous tracts, and in his appeal to Christians to hold firmly to the ‘old paths’ of the gospel and apply them deeply to the heart. There remains a contemporary power to his writing, with his lively exposition of Scripture, vivid illustrations, and down-to-earth applications. Andrew Atherstone has done a wonderful job in introducing Ryle’s life and teaching, both for those new to his ministry and for old hands, who will discover much fresh material in this book.”

Same-Sex Attraction and the Church

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

Foreword

(wrote the foreword)

The Best Kept Secret of Christian Mission

Evangelism & Missions

“John Dickson’s The Best Kept Secret of Christian Mission was not only a great stimulus to my own thinking about evangelism but also proved a real help to our congregation at St Ebbe’s, Oxford, as we thought through how we could best fulfill our role as Christ’s witnesses. It’s a wonderful mix of thoughtful reflection on the Bible and down-to-earth practical application.”

The Contemporary Christian

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“I am delighted that a new generation will now be able to benefit from this rich teaching, which so helped me when it first appeared. As always with John Stott, there is a wonderful blend of faithful exposition of the Bible, rigorous engagement with the world, and challenging applications for our lives.”

The Message of the Old Testament

Christian Living

“This is a bold project, some might say foolhardy, but Mark Dever has brilliantly succeeded. This is no mere textbook; it is powerful preaching. We are not only introduced to the sweep and message of each book of the Bible but also, and above all, confronted by our great God and called to obey his living word.”
