Victory in Jesus: A Devotional Commentary on the Book of Revelation (Donald R. Johnson)
$19.95The book of Revelation is one of the most encouraging and devotional books in the Bible, but sadly, it is one of the most neglected and misunderstood as well. Though there are many good commentaries that help us to understand its message, there are few that capture the devotional nature of the book. And this is unfortunate, as the book of Revelation is not properly understood or appreciated without the engagement of our minds and hearts. One of the central objectives of John is to lead us to admiration and awe. Above all else, it is meant to show us to Christ. With this in mind, Victory in Jesus not only brings light to many of the mysterious symbols of the cosmic drama depicted within the book, it captures its devotional nature by lifting our hearts to worship its leading character— the Lamb who was slain but now risen, who is worthy of all our praise.

A Commentary on Galatians (Tom Nettles and Sylvia Nettles Dickson)
$12.50The driving theme of the book of Galatians is the glory of Christ—the glory of his perfect obedience to all the requirements of God’s law. Driven by unbreakable certainty in his calling as a herald of divine truth to the churches in Galatia, the apostle Paul fearlessly declares that Jesus Christ alone saves. The joyous life that might be found through obedience to the law has been taken away by human sinfulness—only Jesus has kept every positive requirement of the law and has even suffered its curse. The result is that union with Christ by faith is the triune God’s provision for sinners to be declared right by him—the Father calls; the Son saves; the Spirit draws.

“From what I have seen, this is so far the best side-by-side reading companion you can have for the gospels.” — Pastor Steve Martin, Heritage Church, Fayetteville, GA
About the Author
In 1841, Ryle was ordained as a minister in the Church of England. In his first position in a rural parish he developed the plain and direct style of communication that would mark his future ministry. He served at several churches for the next forty years, during which time he wrote hundreds of evangelistic tracts. He was a wildly popular writer. His tracts sold more than 12 million copies in his lifetime, and were eventually translated into about a dozen European and Asian languages.
While his ministry flourished, Ryle’s home life was challenging. In 1844, he married his first wife, who died in 1847. He married again in 1849. The couple was happy, but his wife’s health was poor, so the pastor seldom travelled and practically raised his children alone. When his second wife died in 1860, he became a single father with five children between 2 and 14 years old.
Despite these hardships, Ryle became a leader among the evangelical clergy in his day. In 1880, he was appointed the first bishop of the newly formed diocese of Liverpool. Because the diocese was new, it had no system of leadership, no formal administration. During his tenure as Bishop of Liverpool, Ryle raised enough funds to build 90 new houses of worship, ordained over 500 deacons, 500 ministers, and at least 45 salaried lay Scripture readers and 31 Bible women. He founded the Lay Helpers Association, an organization that oversaw Sunday schools, Bible classes, mission services, and cared for sick.
