Book Review: Thieves in the Temple

Written by Roland Matthews | Thursday, June 17, 2010

American Christianity has forgotten that “faith is costly, and spiritual growth involves sacrifice.” Sacrifice was the calling card of the Christian in centuries past.

Jeffrey MacDonald (Basic Books, 238pp., $25.95) is a fascinating and well-written expose... Continue Reading

Summer Reading — Books Fit for the Season

Written by Albert Mohler | Thursday, June 3, 2010

PCA’s Peter Lillbeck hits Amazon #2 in Books

Written by Will Bunch | Tuesday, May 25, 2010

How does a four-year-old tome by little-known leader of a Glenside, Pa., seminary, dealing with the religious beliefs of a figure who’s been dead for two centuries become a best-selling book? How does a book become a best-seller? This is a question I often ask myself — for a variety of reasons. But now here’s... Continue Reading

Stark’s latest book, God’s Battalions: the Case for the Crusades, takes on one of what most Americans would consider a truism: that the Crusades were simply evil and irrational.

BOOK REVIEW: PCA Pastor Tullian Tchividjian Reflects on Rebellious Past

Written by Peter Elliott | Monday, May 17, 2010

We are still a conservative church and thoroughly evangelical in outlook……Through a style and structural change we have rebranded and replanted.
