The Whole Counsel of God – Richard Gamble

by

This new book, The Whole Counsel Of God by Richard Gamble, is one that I have not yet seen but which looks really good.

Looking to Christ for Assurance

by

William Gurnall: "When thou trustest Christ within thee, instead of Christ without thee, thou settest Christ against Christ.

Southern Baptist Identity: An Evangelical Denomination Faces the Future

Dr. Dockery is an articulate spokesman on Christian higher education and one who has a great influence on my own pursuit of academic excellence (for myself and my students). He is also a great theologian, historian, and cultural observer, particularly on issues within the Southern Baptist Convention. So I highly recommend this book. (It is … [Read more...] about Southern Baptist Identity: An Evangelical Denomination Faces the Future
