Piety: The Heartbeat of Reformed Theology by Joel R. Beeke
40 pages | List Price: $4.99 | Booklet
Summary: When was the last time you thought about being pious? The word tends to make us think of having a “holier-than-thou” attitude. But this negative view strays far from piety’s beginnings. Joel Beeke reclaims the Reformers’ vision for an attractive piety rooted in the knowledge of God and our union with Christ. Focusing on both mind and soul, he offers practical ways to cultivate a vibrant piety, helping you grow in Christlikeness and in your reverence and love for God. Bring harmony between your doctrine and practice, and bring glory to God as he cultivates the fruit of the Spirit in your life.

The Heart of the Gospel: God’s Son Given for You by Sinclair B. Ferguson
24 pages | List Price: $4.99 | Booklet
Summary: How can we truly know that God always does what is best for us? Focusing on Romans 8:32, Sinclair Ferguson reminds us what lies at the heart of the gospel. In the atonement, we behold the Father who refused to spare his own Son—and the Son who was obedient in being delivered up on our behalf. If this is the kind of God we have, and if this is what he has already shown us of himself, then we can confidently say he is for us.

No Adam, No Gospel: Adam and the History of Redemption by Richard Gaffin Jr.
32 pages | List Price: $4.99 | Booklet
Summary: Doubts and denials swarm the biblical teaching that humans descend from an original pair, Adam and Eve. Some even claim that these doubts are compatible with Christian commitment. But is that possible? Richard Gaffin shows how these denials undermine the entire history of redemption taught in Scripture. When we remove Adam and Eve from history, we are left with no redemptive history. Gaffin reminds us that, with no Adam there is no gospel.

What Others Say About This Booklet:
“In Scripture, who we were in Adam is decisive for who we are now as human beings made in the image of God, and who we shall become as redeemed believers in Christ. Dick Gaffin draws out the serious theological implications that necessarily flow from the denial of a historic Adam as the primordial ancestor of humanity.”
—Iain M. Duguid, Professor of Old Testament, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia
