Jesus and the Land: The New Testament Challenge to ‘Holy Land’ Theology by Gary M. Burge

Saint Augustine: Four Anti-Pelagian Writings
A theologian writes a critical response to a popular teaching. He destroys it. The teaching and teacher are irredeemably branded as heresy and heretic. Augustine vs. Pelagius, the battle of the ages. Today I read what nobody else wants to read to find out was Saint Augustine correct? Is Pelagianism a heresy and Pelagius a...
After Acts: Exploring the Lives and Legends of the Apostles by Bryan Litfin
Every good book or movie or TV series ends with closure for the characters. After so many years, Rachel and Ross finally got together. After so many doubts, Chandler finally accepts he is going to be a father. But the Bible does not give us such closures. What happened to Peter? He just disappears halfway...
Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God by J.I. Packer
Evangelism. The Great Commission is so important which is why people get upset when it’s done differently or wrongly or not according to what the Bible teaches. Sovereignty of God. Arguably the greatest of all the great doctrines. And people do argue about it, what it means and how it changes our lives. Put Evangelism...

When Worlds Collide: Where is God? by R.C. Sproul
9/11 was a singular event. For a moment it united America like nothing else did. It shaped America in politics, war and religion. Today’s book was written within a year of the event.

Letters of John (NIVAC) by Gary Burge
Have you read those letters from John? He seems to repeat himself over and over again, love, truth, love, truth. Is it because he is old and can’t remember what he just said or wrote? Or maybe, there is something deeper here that I don’t get. It would be nice if someone could help me...
