Volume 15 of The Complete Works of John Owen includes 4 edited and
formatted treatises on the mortification of sin, the power of
temptation, indwelling sin, and God’s grace.Â
In landlocked Gainesville, Florida, in the hot, fraught summer
of 1999, a college dropout named David sleepwalks through his
life--a dull haze of office work and Internet porn--until a run-in
with a lost friend jolts him from his torpor. He is drawn into the
vibrant but grimy world of Fishgut, a rundown house where a loose
collective of anarchists, burnouts, and libertines practice utopia
outside society and the law. Some even see their lifestyle as a
spiritual calling. They watch for the return of a mysterious hobo
who will--they hope--transform their punk oasis into the Bethlehem
of a zealous, strange new creed.
In his dark and mesmerizing debut novel, Justin Taylor ("a
master of the modern snapshot"--Los Angeles Times) explores the
borders between religion and politics, faith and fanaticism, desire
and need--and what happens when those borders are breached.
Telling the tale of the HAC's vital contribution to the First World
War through its unique collections. The oldest surviving regiment
in the British Army, the Honourable Artillery Company boasts a
uniquely rich and eventful history. This book marks its
distinguished service in the First World War, in which HAC
batteries and battalions saw action in almost every theatre of war.
Editor Justine Taylor and Art Director Ian Denning have drawn on
the HAC's extraordinary wealth of photographs, written archives and
treasured objects to produce a beautiful and frequently moving
record from recruitment to demobilisation and beyond, concluding
with an examination of the Company's role in the Army Reserve
today. Packed with compelling accounts of life in the trenches,
behind the lines and on the Home Front, this volume conveys the
HAC's contribution to and experience of the war effort with
stunning immediacy.
John Calvin, a man adored by some and maligned by others, stands
as a legendary figure in Christian history. In Calvin on the
Christian Life, professor Michael Horton offers us fresh insights
into the Reformer's personal piety and practical theology by
allowing Calvin to speak in his own words.
Drawing not only from his Institutes and biblical commentaries,
but also from lesser-known tracts, treatises, and letters, this
book will deepen your understanding of Calvin's theology and
ministry by exploring the heart of his spiritual life: confident
trust and unwavering joy in the sovereign grace of God.
Jason Meyer highlights the life of Martyn Lloyd-Jones, regarded as
one of the most powerful preachers of the twentieth century,
teaching us the importance of the union between doctrine and life.
This volume includes three classic works by John Owen on sin,
temptation, and repentance in the Christian life. The editors have
made this difficult-to-read Puritan accessible for the modern
reader without sacrificing Owen's work.
Style is predominantly an individual matter--the way people put
themselves together creates a sense of individual identity--but
collectively it creates a sense of common culture in a community, a
city, or a country.
Geographically isolated from the fashion hubs of Paris and New
York, Australia may not yet be synonymous with style. But as it
moves away from the beach look that it is usually associated with
and adopts haute couture, Australia is emerging as a shining star
in the southern hemisphere.
Though not the political capital of the country, Sydney is
nevertheless Australia's cultural capital, and the style hub and
epicenter of the country's fashion evolution. "Sydney Street Style"
depicts the style of this less-explored fashion capital.
Beautifully assembled and packed with full color photos of the
stylish and eclectic residents of Sydney, this book will be a
welcome addition to the library of any fashionista or armchair
traveler.
Does it make a difference that the God Christians claim to
worship has revealed himself as triune-the Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit? Does this fundamental truth of biblical authority have an
effect on a believer's personal fellowship with God?
Puritan theologian John Owen recognized the great need for every
believer to understand the triune God. Communion with the Triune
God revisits the truth presented by John Owen and challenges all
believers to truly recognize and appreciate the ministry that God
the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit have in their
lives. This work of John Owen encourages Christians to enjoy true
communion with each person of the triune God.
This definitive 14-volume set brings together for the first time
all of Piper's published writings from 1970 to 2015, featuring the
latest editions of each of his fifty books along with his hundreds
of articles and chapters, compiled in one beautifully designed
resource.
B. B. Warfield is well known as one of America's leading
theologians, perhaps second only to Jonathan Edwards. But until now
the character of his own Christian experience and his understanding
of the Christian life have remained unexplored. Fred Zaspel unpacks
these for us here, and what we find is that Warfield's profound
theological mind is matched only by his passionate heart for
Christ. From Warfield we learn truly what it is to live in light of
the gospel.
Some of today's most influential young evangelicals outline the
relevance and theological foundations of Christian orthodoxy and
evangelicalism.
Recent cultural interest in evangelicalism has led to
considerable confusion about what the term actually means. Many
young Christians are tempted to discard the label altogether. But
evangelicalism is not merely a political movement in decline or a
sociological phenomenon on the rise, as it has sometimes been
portrayed. It is, in fact, a helpful theological profile that
manifests itself in beliefs, ethics, and church life.
DeYoung and other key twenty- and thirty-something evangelical
Christian leaders present Don't Call It a Comeback: The Same
Evangelical Faith for a New Day to assert the stability, relevance,
and necessity of Christian orthodoxy today. This book introduces
young, new, and under-discipled Christians to the most essential
and basic issues of faith in general and of evangelicalism in
particular.
Kevin DeYoung and contributors like Russell Moore, Tullian
Tchividjian, Darrin Patrick, Justin Taylor, Thabiti Anyabwile, and
Tim Challies examine what evangelical Christianity is and does
within the broad categories of history, theology, and practice.
They demonstrate that evangelicalism is still biblically and
historically rooted and remains the same framework for faith that
we need today.
Exploring the enduring influence of John Stott's views on the
Christian life, this book will encourage a new generation of
evangelical Christians to benefit from Stott's life and teaching.
Highlighting the practical nature of his theology and lessons from
his approach to the Christian life, this book about influential
theologian Herman Bavinck will help modern believers obey Christ
and find joy in the gospel.
The discerning and perceptive essays gathered together in this
volume make evident that a comprehensive understanding of Pauline
thought must include the following aspects of his entire and
comprehensive matrix: -an examination of the Pauline letters in
their specific and contingent as well as their broader and coherent
contexts; -a careful and precise analysis of all relevant Jewish
literature, including the Dead Sea Scrolls; -the incorporation of
all relevant archaeological, historical, and literary evidence for
the reconstruction of the political, cultural, and religious matrix
of the Greco-Roman cities to which Paul's letters are addressed.
The issues treated in this volume are of enormous relevance for a
better understanding of Paul's Jewish Matrix and his very
"Jewishness."
