Endorsement:
“There was a point in my pastoral ministry when I looked for a steady hand on mine as I tried to navigate the swirling waters of mercy ministries in an urban setting while remaining deeply committed to heralding God’s Word through the exposition of Scripture. Not surprisingly, I found it in Tim Keller’s Ministries of Mercy.”

Apologetics: A Justification of Christian Belief
by John M. Frame edited by Joseph E. Torres
384 pages
List Price: $19.99 | Direct Price: $15.00
Paperback
SAMPLE CHAPTER
Subject: Apologetics & Evangelism
Summary: John Frame sheds needed light on the message and method of genuinely Christian apologetics. In this landmark book, he insightfully examines apologetics in three categories—proof, defense, and offense. He also clarifies the relationships of reason, proofs, and evidences to faith, biblical authority, and the lordship of Christ. Frame includes a fresh look at probability arguments and gives special attention to the problem of evil.
Endorsement:
“John Frame manages to tackle the most difficult problems facing a Christian who endeavors to defend the faith: the nature of evil, world religions, the use of evidences, and much more. And he does so with grace, theological acumen, and an enviable straightforwardness. . . . [An] extraordinarily profitable volume.”
—William Edgar, Westminster Theological Seminary
The Message of the General Epistles in the History of Redemption: Wisdom from James, Peter, John, and Jude by Brandon Crowe
240 pages
List Price: $16.99 | Direct Price: $13.00
Paperback
SAMPLE CHAPTER
Subject: Biblical Reference / New Testament
Summary: Considers the theological richness (indicative) and practical relevance (imperative) of the New Testament General Epistles—James, 1–2 Peter, 1–3 John, and Jude—within a redemptive-historical framework. Part One (“Scallywags”) focuses on 1 Peter; Part Two (“Scoffers”) looks at 2 Peter and Jude; Part Three (“Schisms”) gives attention to the Johannine epistles; and Part Four (“Wisdom”) considers the book of James.
Endorsement:
“The General Epistles continue to be relatively ignored, to the church’s detriment. This book seeks to remedy that neglect and does so in a winsome and very helpful fashion. Written for a broader audience, it . . . will make an excellent resource for personal and group Bible study.”
—Richard B. Gaffin Jr., Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Emeritus, Westminster Theological Seminary
