"Here Are Your Gods"

Christian Living

“A scathing indictment of the gods of the West—idols we (you and I) have built with our own hands and inadvertently worship. The power and persuasiveness of Wright's prophetic work lies not in bombastic words (he's as irenic as ever) but in the convincing and gripping connection the author makes between idolatry back then and idolatry that we participate in within our present world. The strangeness of this journey between two worlds often leaves Westerners unconvinced about anything but glib connections. Christopher Wright's discourse shatters our shallow readings of Scripture. It will leave you with deeply rooted convictions and, alas, a thoroughly uneasy feeling about false temples and idols that we have built. A most timely evangelical critique of Western society and politics!”

A Path Called Compelling

Christian Living

“I must confess that over the last two decades I have become increasingly disillusioned with the Christian faith—a religious path so littered in North American with fallacious debris and misplaced markers that, dare I say, it is almost unrecognizable. K. Bradley Watson’s A Path Called Compelling helped reawaken a former joy about what the Jesus path looks like and what it feels like to walk it. A much-needed read for me (a stuffy, old-professor type) and for anyone attempting to follow Jesus!”

The Christ Letter

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“"Doug Webster's preaching commentary on Ephesians will awaken a spiritual wonder about the possibility of communicating theologically rich ideas from the pulpit. Shallow reflections--be forever gone! The christological focus combined with a pertinent and piercing cultural critique makes this commentary a welcome addition. I read this book at sunset on our front porch in the lingering daylight over several evenings. Like having to say goodbye to summer after an enjoyable season, I was sad when it was done.”
