    1 & 2 Timothy and Titus

    N. T. Wright for Everyone Bible Study Guides

    by N. T. Wright
    With Phyllis J. Le Peau

    When you need to know how to do something, a manual is the best place to start. 1 2 Timothy and Titus might be called "the Teacher's Manual," because so much of what they contain is about the kind of teaching that Christian leaders should--and shouldn't--be giving. Just as Timothy and Titus needed help to lead their young churches well in the midst of powerful cultural forces, we need guidance ...

    paperback

    The Life and Witness of Peter

    by Larry R. Helyer

    Who was Peter and what was his true stature in the early church? For Protestants at least, Peter seems caught between two caricatures: the rustic fisherman of Galilee and the author of two lesser New Testament letters. And in both cases he is overshadowed by Paul. In The Life and Witness of Peter, Larry Helyer seeks to reinstate this neglected and underestimated apostle to his rightful ...

    paperback

    Pocket Dictionary for the Study of Biblical Hebrew

    The IVP Pocket Reference Series

    by Todd J. Murphy

    Of Greek and Hebrew, Hebrew strikes the most fear in the heart of the Bible student. The alphabet does not look anything like English. The vocabulary offers almost no points of contact with English. The verb system is utterly alien. And the lexicons, grammars and textbooks are wrapped up in a metalanguage--spiked with Latin--that is daunting in itself. For those who feel that studying the English ...

    The Evangelical Legacy of Slavery in Edwards, Wesley, and Whitefield

    by Sean McGever
    Foreword by Vincent E. Bacote

    Men of their time?

    Jonathan Edwards, John Wesley, and George Whitefield were the three most prominent early evangelicals—and all three were deeply compromised on the issue of slavery. Edwards and Whitefield both kept slaves themselves, and Wesley failed to speak out against slavery until near the end of his life.

    In Ownership, Sean McGever tells the true story ...

  • The Throne, the Lamb & the Dragon: A Reader's Guide to the Book of Revelation, By Paul Spilsbury
    paperback

    The Throne, the Lamb & the Dragon

    A Reader's Guide to the Book of Revelation

    by Paul Spilsbury
    Foreword by J. I. Packer

    The book of Revelation has long intrigued, puzzled and even frightened its readers. Surely it is the most misunderstood book in the Bible. And some faulty interpretations of Revelation are so entrenched in the consciousness of Christians that they are regarded as "gospel truth" and provide riveting plot lines for end-time fiction. But behind the ancient multimedia show that is Revelation lies ...

    by John Stott
    With Douglas Connelly

    The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus' most inspiring and challenging description of the Christian counterculture. John Stott's teaching on this timeless text shows how its value system, ethical standard, religious devotion and network of relationships clearly distinguish it from both the nominal church and the secular world. In this volume Stott's The Message of the Sermon on the Mount is ...
