PHILIPPIANS by Den­nis E. Johnson

Reformed Expos­i­tory Com­men­tary

Philip­pi­ans is a mag­is­te­r­ial treat­ment of var­i­ous topics—suffering’s rela­tion­ship to gospel advance, self-centeredness ver­sus sac­ri­fi­cial ser­vice, the basis of a believer’s assur­ance before God, inter­per­sonal con­flict, and find­ing true contentment—that Paul relates to the touch­stone of Christ, his cross, and his resurrection.

John­son shows how Paul, writ­ing from impris­on­ment to a church close to his heart, uses his own expe­ri­ence and atti­tude as exem­plars to show the Philip­pi­ans the dif­fer­ence a Christ-formed mind makes to the way believ­ers respond to adver­sity, rivalry, con­flict, van­ity, achieve­ment, the ongo­ing pur­suit of holi­ness, and the strate­gic deploy­ment of our resources for the gospel.

Den­nis E. John­son (Th.M., West­min­ster The­o­log­i­cal Sem­i­nary; Ph.D., Fuller The­o­log­i­cal Sem­i­nary) is pro­fes­sor of prac­ti­cal the­ol­ogy at West­min­ster Sem­i­nary Cal­i­for­nia. He is also an ordained min­is­ter in the Pres­by­ter­ian Church of Amer­ica, author of The Mes­sage of Acts, Him We Pro­claim, and Tri­umph of the Lamb, and a con­trib­u­tor to numer­ous books and the­o­log­i­cal journals.

ALIENS IN THE PROMISED LAND Why Minor­ity Lead­er­ship Is Over­looked in White Chris­t­ian Churches and Institutions

Edited by ANTHONY B. BRADLEY

In an age when church growth is cen­tered in Africa, Asia, and Latin Amer­ica, evan­gel­i­cal­ism must adapt to chang­ing demo­graph­ics or risk irrel­e­vancy. Yet many evan­gel­i­cals behave “tribally”—valuing the per­spec­tive of those like them­selves while deny­ing evi­dence of racial atti­tudes in the church.

Anthony Bradley has gath­ered His­panic, black, and Asian schol­ars and lead­ers to share advice on build­ing rela­tion­ships with minor­ity denom­i­na­tions and valu­ing the per­spec­tives and lead­er­ship of minor­ity Chris­tians (not just their token pres­ence). Learn how evan­gel­i­cal­ism can more faith­fully show how the gospel brings together in Christ peo­ple from all tribes, lan­guages, and cultures.

ANTHONY B. BRADLEY (Mdiv, Covenant The­o­log­i­cal Sem­i­nary; MA, Ford­ham Uni­ver­sity; PhD, West­min­ster The­o­log­i­cal Sem­i­nary) is asso­ciate pro­fes­sor of the­ol­ogy at The King’s Col­lege in New York City and research fel­low at the Acton Institute.
