Greek Pedagogy in Crisis

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“There are multitudes of former students of Greek who have lost any ability they may have had to read the Greek New Testament with comprehension. Knowing a language does not ensure the ability to teach that language effectively to others. David Miller has analyzed and applied standard principles of pedagogy to our discipline. He not only has shown how our teaching methods have often been ineffective, he has also shown how we can help to increase our students’ acquisition and retention of Greek.”

Jerome and the Jews

History & Biography

“People often quote the Fathers when they are convenient to push a personal agenda. Jerome has been cited both as a harsh opponent of the Jews and also as a sincere advocate of the Hebraica veritas. Bill Krewson acknowledges this evident tension in a close examination of the Bethlehem scholar's writings and uncovers a more nuanced Jerome 'who explored and expanded the borders of Christian indebtedness to the Jews.' We should pay close attention to his insightful analysis.”

Living Faith

Theology

“An influential German commentator once declared that James has no theology. Robert Plummer has laid to rest any such idea. By expanding our definition of theology to include biblical teaching that is firmly grounded in an understanding of God and his saving purposes, Plummer has clearly demonstrated that James most certainly has a theology! James speaks of the Father and the Son and many of the traditional doctrines that embody the Christian faith.”

Reasons We Believe

Evangelism & Missions

“We live in a day when authors prostitute their scholarship to become rich on sensationalist books about so-called 'lost Christianities' and 'lost Scriptures.' Nate Busenitz's sane and sound treatment of Christian evidences comes as a breath of fresh air.”

The Divine Messenger

Theology

“The Divine Messenger is the book I always wanted to write! Taking his cue from one of my favorite church fathers, Justin Martyr, Matthew Ervin examines the possible appearances of Jesus in the OT. He offers a convincing case that Jesus was not only predicted by the prophets, but made personal visits to those prophets and patriarchs. His bibliography evidences his thorough research. Enjoy the fruits of an extensive analysis of a subject that has been neglected for too long!”
