“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds” Hebrews 1:1-2 America is quickly leaving a word-based society […]

The Wages of Spin
I have read and enjoyed another Carl Trueman book. As a professor at Westminster, Trueman is a Reformed theologian and historian. However, almost all the books I’ve read by him are directed more at cultural issues and only slightly affected by his theology. In this book are two sections examining two Reformed theologians, J. Gresham […]
God Has A Wonderful Plan For Your Life: ...
I was glad to read this book by Comfort. It is a subject all of us must contemplate today: Is everyone saved who thinks they are saved? Comfort gives his own history as an evangelist as an example of how he has seen many people “make a profession” of Christ and then walk away from […]
A Systematic Theology of Biblical Christ...
I finally finished Dr. McCune’s final volume of his theology. This volume covers Salvation, the Church, and Last Things. The great thing about reading McCune in any subject is his unwavering adherence to a fundamental, dispensational, pretribulational and premillennial point of view. That combination is almost unheard of these days. Dr. McCune carries a heavy […]
The Surprising Work of God
This book is a history of the relationship between Harold John Ockenga and Billy Graham in the mid to later 1900’s. The author, Rosell, is the son of evangelist Merv Rosell. The Rosell’s were good friends and fellow ministers with both Harold Ockenga and Billy Graham. If you are interested in the history of evangelicalism […]
New Testament Heralds
Perhaps the most seldom used title in the Bible for the minister is “Preacher.” Though the English word “Preacher” appears four times, one time (Rom. 10:14) is actually a verb, and another (2 Pet. 2:5) refers to Noah, an Old Testament character. So the title “Preacher,” referring to the New Testament minister is only used […]
The Gospel & Personal Evangelism
I have mostly enjoyed Dever’s writings. I often fall short of agreeing with things regarding worship styles and polity, but I like his forthrightness. I want to find good books on evangelism for church and class. This book falls into the same percentage of like and dislike on my part. I liked that it is […]
A New Kind of Christian
Though this book was written in 2001, I wanted to read it first before I read A New Kind of Christianity, which was published in 2010 (same publisher and year as Rob Bell’s Love Wins). A couple books by McLaren was enough for me but we need to know what those who are denying the […]
The Highways and Hedges
I found the joy of the salvation of others. Oh, the privilege, the blessed privilege, to be used of God to win a soul to Christ, and to see a man or woman being led out of bondage by some act of ours toward them. To think that God should condescend to allow us to […]
Every-Member Evangelism
Judson Eber Conant lived from 1867 to 1955. He was a pastor and evangelist and served as a field representative for Moody Bible Institute in its early years. Dr. R.T. Ketcham said of him, “I consider Dr. Conant one of the best evangelists on the continent.” I had never read him but am always looking […]
