List Price: $14.99
Subject: Christian Living / Education & Homeschooling
Paperback
SAMPLE CHAPTER
Summary: Whether you are a parent or a teacher, Starr Meade encourages you to impart a robust knowledge of God to your children from a young age, because a sound theology will prepare them for whatever life has in store.

2. Piety: The Heartbeat of Reformed Theology
by Joel R. Beeke
40 pages
List Price: $4.99
Subject: Christian Living / Spiritual Growth & Guidance
Booklet
SAMPLE CHAPTER
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.

3. The Heart of the Gospel: God’s Son Given for You
by Sinclair B. Ferguson
24 pages
List Price: $4.99
Subject: Theology / Salvation
Booklet
SAMPLE CHAPTER
Summary: How do we know that God always does what is best for us? Focusing on Romans 8:32, Sinclair Ferguson points us to the heavenly Father who refused to spare his own Son—and the Son who was obedient in atoning in our place for our sins. If this is who God is, we can confidently say he is for us.

4. No Adam, No Gospel: Adam and the History of Redemption
by Richard B. Gaffin Jr.
32 pages
List Price: $4.99
Subject: Bible Study / Old Testament
Booklet
SAMPLE CHAPTER
Summary: Doubts and denials swarm the biblical teaching that humans descend from an historical pair, Adam and Eve. Christians who entertain these doubts also claim they are compatible with Christian commitment. But is that possible? Richard Gaffin shows how these denials actually undermine the entire history of redemption taught in Scripture. With no Adam, there is no gospel.

5. The New Man: Becoming a Man After God’s Heart
by Dan Doriani
280 pages
List Price: $14.99
Subject: Christian Living / Spiritual Growth & Guidance
Paperback
SAMPLE CHAPTER
Summary: Dan Doriani understands the challenges of being a man, and he knows you don’t need more man-made lists to excel as a husband, father, or leader. The new man in Christ is shaped by knowing God through his Word, because the way of a godly man is the way of his God.

With a focus on honing character rather than following techniques, Doriani seeks out the biblical pattern for masculinity that transcends culture. Discover how you can reflect God’s character in marriage, friendships, wealth, work, fitness, play, and more. You won’t find checklists for self-improvement (or three ways to grill a steak), but you will find clarity, insight, honesty, encouragement, and freedom in the Man who is ultimately our Savior, not just our example. You’ll even find ideas for games to play with your kids!

Each chapter includes questions for group study or discussion with spouses. This is a revised and expanded edition of The Life of a God-Made Man (Crossway, 2001).
