The Gospel
Book Review: Preaching the Whole Bible as Christian Scripture, by Graeme Goldsworthy
Review by Paul Alexander | 9Marks Journal: Preaching | 03.05.2010Read this book, and you’ll not only want to re-read it, you’ll want to re-read your Bible.
Book Review: Preaching Christ in All of Scripture, by Edmund Clowney
Review by Paul Alexander | 9Marks Journal: Preaching | 03.05.2010This book is worth having on your shelf for the primary reason that it will encourage you to preach Christ himself from the Old Testament.
Book Review: Preaching Christ from the Old Testament, by Sidney Greidanus
Review by Aaron Menikoff | 9Marks Journal: Preaching | 03.05.2010Preaching Christ from the Old Testament is an excellent resource that has yet to be replaced.
Book Review: The Lost Message of Jesus, by Steve Chalke
Review by Mike Gilbart-Smith | 03.05.2010OUTLINE
Book Review: God is the Gospel, by John Piper
Review by Nicholas G. Piotrowski | 03.05.2010If you love Jesus, you will be affected by this book; the biblical truths trumpeted are deeply challenging in their implications.
Book Review: Soul Cravings: An Exploration of the Human Spirit, by Erwin McManus
Review by Jonathan Leeman | 9Marks Journal: The Gospel | 03.05.2010This book leaves so much unsaid, to state it as charitably as I can, that what the person would gain from your book itself is not Christianity or the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Book Review: Simply Christian, by N. T. Wright
Review by Andy Davis | 9Marks Journal: The Gospel | 03.05.2010Most pointedly, I don’t believe this book tenderly and clearly warns individual sinners of their peril or calls upon them to flee to Christ as the only remedy for their sin before God.
Book Review: The Purpose Driven Life, by Rick Warren
Review by Paul Alexander | 03.05.2010Only the gospel should be proclaimed as having driving power for the Christian life, and only the gospel should enjoy primacy in the Christian life.
Book Review: God So Loved the World, by Fisher Humphreys and Paul Robertson
Review by Greg Gilbert | 03.05.2010To be quite honest, I believe a comprehensive look at Baptist history would reveal plainly that Baptists historically have been largely a Calvinistic people.
Book Review: On Being Black and Reformed, by Anthony Carter
Review by Reverend Rickey Armstrong | 9Marks Journal: Race and Ethnicity | 03.03.2010This an excellent introduction to the African-American experience from the perspective of redemptive history.
Book Review: The Gathered and Scattered Church, by Edward Hammett
Review by Greg Gilbert | 03.03.2010Jesus never made social problems or social action His overriding concern. Hammett needs either to understand that, or at least to write it, more clearly.
Book Review: The Jesus I Never Knew, by Philip Yancey
Review by Greg Gilbert | 03.03.2010This is indeed a day when novel ideas about Jesus are frequent and fashionable, but far from correcting those errors, this book only serves to make them even more acute.
Book Review: Is Jesus the Only Savior?, by James Edwards
Review by Will Kynes | 9Marks Journal: Marriage & Pastors' Wives | 03.03.2010The kind of person who would perhaps benefit most from this book is the skeptic who is sympathetic to the claims of the Jesus Seminar and other similar scholars.
Book Review: Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament, by Christopher Wright
Review by Paul Alexander | 9Marks Journal: Family & Parenting | 03.03.2010It’s not difficult to see why this book has stayed in print for so long.
Book Review: A New Kind of Christian, by Brian McLaren
Review by Mark Dever | 03.02.2010The church of Christ can survive both bad books and bad reviews. Perhaps in this case, it will have to survive both.
