Justification by Grace through Faith: Finding Freedom from Legalism, Pride, and Despair by Brian Vickers

The doctrine of justification as an alien, imputed righteousness has been under attack for several years. This biblical theology of justification traces how the doctrine unfolds in Scripture and how, in Christ, God provides everything needed for sinners to be made right with him. Whether we are struggling with legalism, lawlessness, pride, or despair, a biblical view of justification will lead us away from ourselves to the God who accepts us fully in Christ.

BRIAN VICKERS (Ph.D., The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) is Associate Professor of New Testament Interpretation at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky.

NEW RELEASE—Bible Study: A Student’s Guide

Posted on by Cherith

PRICE $12.99 PAGES 224 ISBN 9781596386372 BINDING Paperback

Have you ever been to a “Bible study” that didn’t have much “Bible” or “study” at all? Without a proper understanding of how to do it, students can be disappointed or scared away from studying the Bible. So what is Bible study—and can it work for high schoolers?

No stranger to teaching the Bible to teenagers, Jon Nielson confirms that real, meaningful Bible study is not only possible for students, but important. He takes students seriously and expects them to take their faith seriously. Unpacking five truths about the Bible—that it is God speaking, is powerful, is understandable, is literary, and is one story—he demonstrates how the Bible should be studied and how teenagers themselves can lead that study.

“A compelling and clear guide to embedding Bible study in youth group ministries.”

—Dr. Josh Moody, Senior Pastor, College Church, Wheaton

“Calling and aiding student ministries to center upon God’s Word. Here is a primer on bibliology, hermeneutics, and pedagogy that does not mention the words! Youth ministers, and those who work with students, will be profoundly instructed on what the Bible is—how it works—and how to teach it.”

—R. Kent Hughes, Senior Pastor Emeritus, College Church in Wheaton

PRICE $12.99 PAGES 224 ISBN 9781596386372 BINDING Paperback

Come Let Us Reason Together: The Unity of Jews and Gentiles in the Church by Baruch Maoz

“A supremely helpful analysis of Messianic Judaism . . . that will benefit people on all sides of the controversy. I greatly appreciate his relentlessly biblical approach.” —JOHN MacARTHUR, Pastor and Teacher, Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, California

“An excellent treatise . . . as well as an effective and appropriate critique of the current Messianic Movement.” —HARRY L. REEDER III, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama

How should Jewish Christians worship? Does Messianic Judaism let them blend faith in Jesus with Jewish practice? Baruch Maoz disagrees, offering a better way to retain Jewish cultural identity without losing fellowship with other Christians.
