New York Times best-selling author Timothy Keller shows how God calls each of us to express meaning and purpose through our work and careers.In a work world that is increasingly competitive and insecure, people often have nagging questions: Why am I doing this work? Why is it so hard? And is there anything I can do about it? Tim Keller, pastor of New York's Redeemer Presbyterian Church and New York Times best-selling author of The Reason for God, has taught and counseled students, young professionals, and senior leaders on the subject of work and calling for more than 20 years. Now he puts his insights into a book for listeners everywhere, giving biblical perspectives on such pressing questions as: What is the purpose of work? How can I find meaning and serve customers in a cutthroat, bottom-line-oriented workplace? How can I use my skills in a vocation that has meaning and purpose? Can I stay true to my values and still advance in my field? How do I make the difficult choices that must be made in the course of a successful career? With deep insight and often surprising advice, Keller explains that biblical wisdom is immensely relevant to our questions about our work. In fact, the Christian view of work - that we work to serve others, not ourselves - can provide the foundation of a thriving professional and balanced personal life. Keller shows how excellence, integrity, discipline, creativity, and passion in the workplace can help others and even be considered acts of worship - not just of self-interest. Read more

“If anyone knows how to be a pastor in the contemporary context that person is Eugene Peterson. Eugene possesses the rare combination of a pastor’s heart and a pastor’s art. Take and read!” (Richard J. Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline) “I’ve been nagging Eugene Peterson for years to write a memoir. In our clamorous, celebrity-driven, entertainment culture, his life and words convey a quiet whisper of sanity, authenticity, and, yes, holiness.” (Philip Yancey, author of What Good is God) “A good book for folks who like pastors. And a good book for folks who don’t. The Pastor is the disarming tale of one of the unlikely suspects who has helped shape North American Christianity.” (Shane Claiborne author of The Irresistible Revolution) Read more

Renowned pastor and bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet Timothy Keller shares his most provocative and illuminating message yet. It is commonly thought in secular society that the Bible is one of the greatest hindrances to doing justice. Isn’t it full of regressive views? Didn’t it condone slavery? Why look to the Bible for guidance on how to have a more just society? But Timothy Keller challenges these preconceived beliefs and presents the Bible as a fundamental source for promoting justice and compassion for those in need. In Generous Justice, he explores a life of justice empowered by an experience of grace: a generous, gracious justice. This book offers readers a new understanding of modern justice and human rights that will resonate with both the faithful and the skeptical. Read more

In his classic defense, Machen clarifies the basic understanding of the most fundamental Christian beliefs: doctrine, God and man, the Bible, Christ, Salvation, and the Church. Christianity and Liberalism remains just as true, useful, and informative today as when it was first published, which is why it was selected by multiple organizations as a top 100 book of its century. Read for yourself the true difference between Christianity and the counterfeit religion called Liberalism. Read more

John Wise's appraisal of church governance in Massachusetts during the early 1700s offers deep insight into the religious and political thinking of the era.Wise sought to evaluate how and whether the churches of New England conformed to the principles set out by the English royal charter of 1630. Since the entire communities were built from scratch as colonies, with most colonists being avowedly Christian, the role of the church was central to daily life. As the generations passed the growth of the settlements, in size and population, altered how the local churches behaved. Questions such as whether each church was independent of another, or where the colonial churches stand in relation to those of England and Scotland, were important by the time Wise wrote this work.The direction of travel of the churches was also concerning to the settlers; should these churches evolve to have a hierarchy, with bishops and other officers? Or should each church retain a sole focus upon their local village congregations? Amicably resolving such debates was paramount in the context of the devout societies of colonial-era New England, and the author sets about doing so eloquently and persuasively. Read more

The Glory of Christ (1684) stands as John Owen's magnificent final work, completed just before his death, presenting a profound meditation on the person, work, and glory of Jesus Christ. This deeply theological yet devotional treatise explores how believers can grow in their appreciation and experience of Christ's glory, both in this life and in eternity.We have updated this timeless classic into a modern, updated translation that is easy to read and understand!At its heart, the work examines the various ways Christ's glory is revealed: in His divine nature, in His role as Mediator, in His incarnation, in His exaltation, and in His relationship with the Church. Owen carefully unfolds how believers can behold Christ's glory through faith, Scripture, and spiritual disciplines. The treatise is particularly notable for its emphasis on the practical and experiential aspects of contemplating Christ's glory, arguing that this vision transforms believers into Christ's image.What distinguishes this work is Owen's remarkable ability to combine profound theological insight with warm devotional application. While maintaining scholarly depth, he consistently shows how theological truth should shape Christian experience and affection. His treatment is especially valuable for demonstrating how the contemplation of Christ's glory provides comfort in suffering, strength in temptation, and motivation for holiness.The work systematically explores different aspects of Christ's glory, from His eternal existence as the Son of God to His incarnation, death, resurrection, and current reign. Owen particularly emphasizes how believers can develop their spiritual sight to better perceive Christ's glory, even while still limited by their earthly existence. His discussion of how this vision of glory prepares believers for heaven is especially moving, written as it was in his final days.The influence of The Glory of Christ extends far beyond its immediate Puritan context, continuing to shape Protestant understanding of Christology and spiritual formation. Modern readers find in Owen's work not only theological richness but also practical guidance for growing in their knowledge and love of Christ.About the AuthorJohn Owen (1616-1683) was among the most significant Puritan theologians, serving as vice-chancellor of Oxford University and as a leading Independent minister. Writing this work while facing death, he brought both his vast theological learning and deep personal experience to bear on the subject of Christ's glory. His combination of intellectual rigor and spiritual warmth made him particularly effective in addressing both the mind and heart of his readers. Through this final work, his influence continues to guide believers in their contemplation and worship of Christ. Read more

The Westminster Confession of Faith is a significant document in the Reformed Christian tradition, outlining its core beliefs and theological stance.

Additionally, it discusses the role of the sacraments, the importance of the Church, and the duty of the state towards the Church. The Westminster Confession of Faith continues to be used as a standard of doctrine in many Reformed churches around the world. Read more

What every person wants more than anything else is to be fully known and fully loved. This is what it means to be an insider. And the grand story of Scripture is about how the insider God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—has come to outsiders in order to bring us in. How does this happen? And what does this do to shape our understanding of who God is, who we are, and what the world is like? In Insider-Outsider, award-winning author Pierce Taylor Hibbs (Struck Down but Not Destroyed, The Book of Giving, The Great Lie) explores the theology of insiders and outsiders, unpacking the beauty of God's character and work throughout history, culminating in the coming of Jesus Christ, the great insider, and in the giving of the Holy Spirit.But Hibbs doesn't stop there. He uses this insider-outsider dynamic to present a fresh approach to apologetics, helping everyday Christians talk about their faith in extraordinary ways. Guiding readers through the thickets of theology, philosophy, and culture, he shows what it looks like for insiders in Christ to approach outsiders with courage, kindness, and truth. With a foreword by Christopher Watkin (Biblical Critical Theory), and chock-full of poetry, prayers, and critical questions, Insider-Outsider promises to serve the next generation of Christians with the life-changing, world-shaping truth of the gospel: the good news of God coming to outsiders in order to make them insiders. If you've been looking Reformed theology and a down-to-earth guide to apologetics that doesn't compromise on richness, look no further. Read more
