138,95 kr. Is discipline something you do to your kids--or something you do for them? Biblical discipline is holistic; its ultimate goal is a child's growth in the Lord. That means that the gospel does much more than plug nicely into a discipline program. The gospel is true discipline's driving force, turning parental instruction and training into a rich, transformative part of daily life. And that doesn't happen just by accident. Written by a mom on the front lines, For the Love of Discipline takes short chapters to work through typical discipline issues from a gospel perspective. Along the way, Sara offers personal examples, teaches practical strategies, and shows how to pursue "discipline skills" every day. Moms will stop spinning their wheels in quick fixes and behavior management and find renewed strength in God's own gracious shepherding and love.

254,50 kr. To the people of Judah, distressed by changing political realities, it seemed that God had lost control of the situation--if he'd ever had it in the first place. Zephaniah warned of imminent judgment but also pointed to hope close at hand: God is both Judge and a Refuge from judgment. In Haggai's day, God's struggling people needed to reorder their priorities and invest themselves in building the Lord's house. Haggai declared that God's renewed presence in their midst would bring renewed blessing. When doubt of the Lord's love and watchfulness led the people into sin and distress, Malachi addressed their concerns and failings one by one. God would not abandon those who feared him, despite a history of rebellion against him. Practical, devotional, and expositional, this commentary delves into the ways these three prophets point us to the sufferings of Christ, the forgiveness of God, and anticipated glories to come.

- Genesis 1 and 2 as Tools of Cultural Critique
193,95 kr. Too often, all our contemporary culture sees in Genesis 1 and 2 are problems involving Darwin, dinosaurs, and the length of days, while the Trinity is dismissed as irrational or a later imposition on the Bible. But a loss of confidence in these doctrines would be a disaster for thinking Christians. In fact, these foundational, biblical truths of the Trinity and creation are among the richest sources of insights and tools for robust and sensitive engagement with contemporary culture. With diagrams and clear explanations both of the Bible and our contemporary world, Christopher Watkin reclaims the Trinity and creation from their cultural despisers and shows how these foundational doctrines speak into, question, and reorient some of the most important debates in today's society.

- Host of Deconstruction
163,95 kr. Christian thinkers and writers who address Jacques Derrida's philosophy face two potential pitfalls. One is to recast Christianity in an ill-fitting Derridean mold; the other is to ascribe to Derrida objectionable positions that bear little relation to his writing. To avoid these hazards, Christopher Watkin, a scholar of French literature and philosophy, walks in Derrida's shoes through the landscape of recent thought and culture, seeking to understand the rationale for Derrida's philosophical moves in light of his assumptions and commitments in philosophy, literature, ethics, and politics. He then sets these assumptions in the wider context of God's nature and purposes in history, providing biblical critique. Learn why Derrida says what he does and how Christians can receive and respond to his writing in a balanced, biblical way that is truly beneficial.

- An Analysis of Perspectivalism, the Trinitarian Theological Method of John Frame and Vern Poythress
508,95 kr. Timothy Miller defends and further develops the foundationally Trinitarian, multiperspectival theological method of John Frame and Vern Poythress, an eminently useful, historically Reformed tool for understanding all created reality.Endorsements"This is a highly stimulating work that makes a very helpful and useful contribution in its argument for utilizing the Trinitarian processions in a Frame/Poythress perspectival account of knowledge and apologetics. In terms of originality, I think the meat of the work lies there, and good meat it is too."-Mike Ovey, Principal, Oak Hill College, London, England"Triperspectivalism is a theological method based on the Bible's teaching about the one God in three persons. Tim Miller's book presents an accurate formulation of this method and explores in depth the origin of the method in the doctrine of the Trinity. I recommend the book highly to those who aspire to be serious students of theological method and of the Trinity itself."-John Frame, Professor Emeritus of Systematic Theology and Philosophy, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando"Clear and helpful for readers. . . . a valuable resource on the subject. I am grateful that someone with Miller's ability has seen fit to offer the first published book-length study of triperspectivalism, and a good book at that."-Vern S. Poythress, Professor of New Testament Interpretation, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia

453,95 kr. The book of Revelation is a riveting read--but a persistent question Christians have is, "What does it mean?" Pastor-theologian Richard Phillips provides a thorough and penetrating study of each chapter while highlighting the theme of the sovereign rule of Christ over history for the salvation of his church.

Carefully noting how the book's symbolism works, Phillips paints the pictures of Revelation and explains its meaning to readers today. Along the way, readers will see the glory of Christ as the exalted Priest and King for his people, observe the vision of present and future history laid out in Revelation, and discover the powerful pattern of faith by which we may join Christians of all ages in victory.

213,95 kr. How do we walk in the way of wisdom? How should we respond to suffering? How can we cope with life's frustrations and sorrows? How ought we to weep? How ought we to love? The answers can be found in the great "how-to" books of Scripture--the Old Testament's wisdom literature--but unfortunately, these books are frequently overlooked in biblical theology, despite their immense significance for God's people. O. Palmer Robertson introduces the concept of biblical wisdom before providing a redemptive-historical analysis of Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, and Lamentations. These neglected books offer the contemporary reader inspired insight (and a solid dose of godly realism) into every major realm of human existence: from love and intimacy to grief and calamity.

- The Roles of Christ in the Bible and Our Roles Today
188,95 kr. Although early church fathers recognized the different roles of Christ, John Calvin was the first to call attention to his distinct offices of prophet, priest, and king. Starting in Genesis, these offices recur time and again throughout the Bible. Viewed alongside Christ's humiliation and exultation, they give us a fully rounded understanding of his work, as well as insight into the ongoing work of the church. In this biblical theology, Richard Belcher explores and defines the basic functions of prophets, priests, and kings through an analysis of key Old Testament texts before discussing the fulfillment of these offices in Christ and the transformation of these offices for the church, its leaders, and individual believers. Includes study questions.

163,95 kr. Anger and stress affect each of us every day--even if we aren't feeling them ourselves, we come into contact with people who are. But their commonplace nature shouldn't cause us to shrug them away. Anger and stress are both destroyers, and they must be controlled before they bring devastating harm. Mack exhorts us: "You don't have to be overcome and destroyed by ungodly anger or stress. By God's grace, you can be an overcomer." Of all the resources available to us, the Bible contains the most trustworthy and helpful guidance on how to handle ungodly anger and stress. Internationally respected and experienced biblical counselor Wayne Mack shows how to turn to God's Word to find help, explaining principles that can be adopted for lasting positive change. Includes study questions and evaluation materials.

- Lessons from the Imprecatory Psalms
168,95 kr. Although the Psalms are much beloved by readers of the Bible, some hostile language in individual psalms may be disconcerting. Are these seemingly vindictive prayers acceptable in the mouths of Christians? How is a pastor supposed to preach these texts? James E. Adams wants us to embrace God's Word in its entirety, and that means examining the parts that make us uncomfortable. In short, helpful chapters, Adams answers a number of questions: Are these psalms from God? Who is the speaker in the psalms? May we pray these psalms today? It turns out that the Prince of Peace has much to teach us about war, and even the imprecatory psalms may be prayed with the merciful goal of conversion. Twenty-fifth anniversary edition--includes a new epilogue and additional chapter.

- A Guide for Learning and Using Biblical Hebrew
483,95 kr. Most students of biblical Hebrew quit their studies at the most crucial moment--the transition from language basics to biblical exegesis. But students can flourish early on and progress further if they are trained from the outset to read and explain biblical texts effectively.

With a focus on developing reading ability, the course gives students rapid insight into the value of their Hebrew study, showing them how to handle God's Word with depth and robust exegesis. Each of the twenty-eight chapters has three sections: an introduction of the grammar (bringing in verbs as early as possible), grammar and reading exercises, and exegetical exercises, developing skills in the beginner that are typically reserved for more advanced students.

358,95 kr. Rarely addressed throughout church history, the doctrine of adoption has seen fresh attention in recent years. Although valuable, contemporary studies have focused primarily on etymological, cultural, and pastoral considerations, giving little to no attention to vital systematic theological concerns.In this groundbreaking work, Professor David Garner examines the function of adoption in Pauline thought: its relationship to the doctrines of Christ, the Holy Spirit, eschatology, and union with Christ, as well as its primary place among the other benefits of salvation.Adoption frames Pauline soteriology, Garner argues, and defines the Trinitarian, familial context of redemption in Christ, the Son of God. Properly understood, adoption's paradigm-shifting implications extend deep and far.Endorsements"This book is a gem: a precious mind-clearing, heartwarming achievement."-J. I. Packer"I'm convinced that Garner's book will be considered a theological classic of the Christian faith. . . . To say I absolutely loved it would be an understatement."-Dan Cruver, President, Together for Adoption"Reading Sons in the Son is like putting on a new set of glasses that enable the reader to see the glistening beauty of God's grace of adoption throughout the entirety of his salvation plan."-Nancy Guthrie, Author, Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament series"Garner's book may well reset the Reformed church's thinking about the relationship of its doctrine of salvation and its doctrine of Christ."-Howard Griffith, Academic Dean, Reformed Theological Seminary, Washington, DC"All future work on this subject that is so precious to the minds and hearts of Christians should reckon with this masterful treatment."-Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand RapidsAlso endorsed by Richard B. Gaffin Jr., Russell Moore, Harry L. Reeder, and Guy Prentiss Waters.

298,95 kr. Moses is renowned as a great lawgiver, prophet, friend of God, and deliverer of his people. The events of his life, spanning four books of the Bible, resound throughout Scripture. In this epic undertaking, James M. Boice delves into the narrative to uncover its rich meaning and gospel application to our lives today. We can learn a lot from Moses about faithfulness, prayerfulness, meekness, and good leadership--we can even learn from his sins and failure! But Boice shows how we can also look beyond Moses and the Israelites to the awesome power of God and the promise of a much needed, much greater Deliverer.

243,95 kr. Most say that if God were absolutely sovereign, human beings would be incapable of free and responsible choices. But is this what the Bible says? Free will is a complex topic, but the Bible is clear: God's absolute sovereignty exists alongside our free, responsible choices. Only one view, compatibilism, fully embraces this truth. Making a fresh, scriptural case for compatibilism, Scott Christensen explains the issues involved and addresses arguments on both sides. His absorbing pastoral analysis will help you to develop a new appreciation for the role your choices play in God's sovereign plans and to better understand the Bible's views on evil and suffering, prayer, evangelism, sanctification, and more.

263,95 kr. Can we effectively defend the primary authority of Scripture if we start our defense by turning to other sources? In Christian Theistic Evidences, Cornelius Van Til argues for the defense of a pure, full-fledged Christianity, unadulterated by a scientific methodology founded on non-Christian assumptions. He offers us instead a Christian philosophy and methodology for defending the faith that presupposes the absolute authority of the triune God of Scripture. This retypeset work, originally from Van Til's famous Christian Evidences class at Westminster Seminary, includes a foreword and explanatory notes from K. Scott Oliphint.
