Historian Michael Haykin stokes a passion for revival by investigating the history of spiritual renewal in the Reformed tradition. After examining the Holy Spirit's outpourings during the Reformation and English Puritanism, Haykin focuses on two remarkable moments of renewal in the eighteenth century: the Great Awakening and the revival of the Particular Baptists in the British and Irish islands. By looking back at revivals from the past, we can develop a biblical framework for expectant prayer for revival in our day.

In this book, Colquhoun helps us understand the precise relationship between law and gospel. He also impresses us with the importance of knowing this relationship. Colquhoun especially excels in showing how important the law is as a believer's rule of life without doing injury to the freeness and fullness of the gospel. By implication, he enables us to draw four practical conclusions: (1) the law shows us how to live; (2) the law as a rule of life combats both antinomianism and legalism; (3) the law shows us how to love; and (4) the law promotes true freedom.

To be a Christian in first-century Corinth was much like being a Christian in the twenty-first-century Western world. As Kim Riddlebarger explains, "New Christians found themselves struggling to learn the doctrines of Christianity and then live out their new faith in a city and culture well known for its rampant sexual immorality and idolatry." In this encouraging exposition of 1 Corinthians, Riddlebarger examines the apostle Paul's concerns about disturbing patterns of behavior at Corinth and his response to questions the church raised about practical and theological issues. He also helps us see how worldly wisdom continues to threaten our churches today and that we still desperately need to look in faith to the crucified and risen Christ, who alone brings life and godliness to His church through the power of His Holy Spirit.

As a father of the Chinese evangelical church, Pastor Wang Mingdao is remembered for insisting that the only way to be saved from sin and enjoy eternal life is by God's grace through faith in Christ, even though that insistence cost him his earthly freedom. Although Mingdao experienced a moment of weakness during persecution, he eventually found restoration in Christ and kept the faith through twenty-three years of imprisonment. His courage and strength provide a modern example of how Christians must trust the Lord and remain faithful in times of hardship and persecution.

After the Reformation and Puritan eras, Protestantism fell under the assault of modern philosophies that would undermine truths of the faith and diminish vital Christian experience. Yet God did not allow His church to fail. He raised up evangelical leaders who held firm to the authority of Scripture, trusted solely in the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior, and believed that the historic reality of Christ's atoning death and resurrection provides the only hope of salvation. In Evangelical Heroes, Joel R. Beeke and Douglas Bond present thirty biographical sketches of some of their favorite evangelical leaders of the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. Immerse yourself in the lives of these men and women, and, by the grace of God alone, you will have models who will not disappoint to imitate throughout your life insofar as they followed Christ.

This little book presents a host of biblical proofs that concisely and winsomely demonstrate the deity of Christ. Curt D. Daniel surveys such an avalanche of evidence that any honest reader will find it difficult to deny the sheer weight of the Bible's testimony that Jesus is God. Christians will see the richness of this wonderful truth in ways they may not have imagined, and, by God's grace, such knowledge can be powerfully persuasive, convincing skeptics to believe. Read this book and meditate on everything Christ does as a display of His deity, from His teaching to His second coming.

The Westminster Shorter Catechism has shaped generations of Christians, informing them of their "chief end" and impressing on their memories the theological basics to pursue it. Authors William Boekestein, Jonathan Landry Cruse, and Andrew J. Miller value this venerable catechism and winsomely introduce a new generation to its powerful message. Portioning the catechism into fifty-two devotions, they explain and apply each question and answer so that weekly engagement with it will lead to a firmer grasp within a year. Great for individual and family use for all who desire to "glorify and enjoy God forever."

Paul Washer draws from the church's greatest theologians to herald Christ's centrality and stimulate readers to zealously seek Christ over all things.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon is best known as England's Prince of Preachers. What has often been forgotten about Spurgeon, however, is his for the activity as a philanthropist, activist, or friend of poor. In Spurgeon and the Poor, Alex DiPrima examines Spurgeon's belief that gospel preaching and soul-winning should be the church's primary mission informed his commendable benevolence and social concern. Part theology and part biography, DiPrima's new study will encourage the church as he recaptures a forgotten aspect of Spurgeon's ministry. "The best way to address the fear we have about the true gospel being morphed into a social gospel is by seeing how men like C. H. Spurgeon, who were true to the gospel, did mercy ministries. Alex DiPrima gives us a glimpse of this in this well-researched book. Spurgeon remained a true gospel preacher to his dying day. Read this book and see how the gospel he preached fired his heart with loving zeal for the poor and needy in his own day." >"When Christians think about Charles Spurgeon, they naturally recall his stirring sermons and energetic evangelism. Spurgeon is not often remembered as an advocate for ministry to the poor and suffering, but as Alex DiPrima's book convincingly shows, he should be. To Spurgeon, caring for the 'least of these' was the inevitable fruit of God's regenerating work in the hearts of the saints. DiPrima's work is a timely reminder that for the church, there should be no artificial separation between the proclamation of the gospel and Christlike works of mercy." >ALEX DIPRIMA is senior pastor of Emmanuel Church in Winston Salem, NC. He holds a PhD from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in historical theology with a focus on the ministry of Charles Haddon Spurgeon. He has published several articles with 9Marks ministries, the Spurgeon Center, and Southeastern Seminary.

Faithful leaders are among God's greatest gifts to His church. But the question remains: How are faithful leaders formed? In Leading from the Foundation Up, David Cook and Shane Parker make the case that the fear of God is the beginning of Christian leadership. Dispelling worldly models rooted in pride or charisma, they contend that godly leaders will only flourish in the greenhouse of a gospel-rooted awe of God. Perfect for discipleship studies and small groups, this book will remind developing and seasoned leaders alike that courageous leaders are humble, fearful followers.
