    Christian History in Seven Sentences

    A Small Introduction to a Vast Topic

    Introductions in Seven Sentences

    by Jennifer Woodruff Tait

    The history of the Christian church is a fascinating story.

    Since the ascension of Jesus and the birth of the church at Pentecost, the followers of Christ have experienced persecution and martyrdom, established orthodoxy and orthopraxy, endured internal division and social upheaval, and sought to proclaim the good news "to the end of the earth." How can we possibly begin to ...

    The Adolescent Journey

    An Interdisciplinary Approach to Practical Youth Ministry

    by Amy E. Jacober

    Adolescence is a time of individuation--children are slowly finding their identity as adults, separate from their parents and other adult influences. Such a critical time of psychological development is complicated by cultural influences that shape their expectations of adulthood and color how they relate to other people and even God. The task of the youth pastor becomes to help adolescents navigate ...

    paperback

    Christ-Centered Biblical Theology

    Hermeneutical Foundations and Principles

    by Graeme Goldsworthy

    Preaching Survey of the Year's Best Books for Preachers

    The appeal of biblical theology is that it provides a "big picture" that makes sense of the diversity of biblical literature. Through the lens of biblical theology the Bible ceases to be a mass of unconnected texts, but takes shape as a unified metanarrative connecting the story of Israel with that of Jesus. ...

    Together for the City

    How Collaborative Church Planting Leads to Citywide Movements

    by Neil Powell and John James
    Foreword by Timothy Keller

    We need a bigger vision for the city. It's not enough to plant individual churches in isolation from each other. The spiritual need and opportunity of our cities is too big for any one church to meet alone. Pastors Neil Powell and John James contend that to truly transform a city, the gospel compels us to create localized, collaborative church planting movements. They share lessons ...
