paperbackThe Cost of Commitment
IVP Classics
by John White
Foreword by Don Everts"The way of the cross is a magnificent obsession with a heavenly pearl, beside which everything else in life has no value." Following Christ, says John White, is not cheap.

Christian Doctrine in Global Context
Edited by Gene L. Green, Stephen T. Pardue, and K. K. Yeo

paperbackFaith Comes by Hearing
A Response to Inclusivism
Edited by Christopher W. Morgan and Robert A. Peterson
What about those who have never heard? The debate swirls and feelings run deep. What is the fate of the unevangelized? The traditional position--that apart from an explicit faith in Jesus no one is saved--seems to have fallen out of favor with many evangelicals. Here is a passionate but irenic response to the arguments of those who believe that the unevangelized can (or might) be saved apart from ...

Nevertheless, this is the faith that we find Jesus talking about. Scott Bessenecker has learned from new friar communities, ...

The Power of Reframing Your Life
by Laurie Polich Short
Reframing your perspective can transform your life.
