A Journey in Faith (Richard Belcher)
$8.95All Christians believe God is omnipotent, don’t they?! But how “real” is this truth to our lives when we face difficulties and trials? Does our faith crumble when the enemy assaults? Or do we cast ourselves in faith on our God? The theme of this volume of the “Journey” series is faith.
Professor Ira Pointer seeks to find out why a beloved pastor of 43 years in a small town mountain setting, has been eliminated from all historical records in the church and community where he served. As they pursue this mystery, they find a hostile community, which brings them face to face with a threatening situation themselves, which tests their own faith. As usual, Belcher is all at once captivating and instructive!

A Journey in Baptism (Richard Belcher)
$8.95In another theological novel in the famed “Journey” series, Richard Belcher presents a gracious discussion of the different views on baptism. The story line is that of a student asking professor Ira Pointer to help him understand the Baptist view of baptism, which is the view the book takes.

A Journey in God’s Sovereignty (Richard Belcher)
$8.95Is there any theological doctrine more difficult and problematical than dealing with the subject of the sovereignty of God in relationship to the will of man and our responsibility before God? Is man’s will free or enslaved?
Is there any theological doctrine more difficult and problematical than dealing with the subject of the sovereignty of God in relationship to the will of man and our responsibility before God? Is man’s will free or is it enslaved? If God is sovereign, then how can man be responsible? If man is free, then how can God be sovereign? And so Richard Belcher’s exciting Journey series continues, with a story about God’s sovereignty over all things.
Ira Pointer and Dink find themselves in serious trouble at the seminary where they teach, because of this doctrine. They face the possible loss of their jobs, simply because the board of trustees and others do not understand these truths nor the doctrinal history of their own denomination.

A Journey in Heresy (Richard Belcher)
$8.95What is one supposed to do when he teaches in a Christian seminary which has begun to swallow and teach heresy? Yet, the one presenting the heresy is a powerful preacher and personality, who most think is sound in doctrine, and he appears to be a great evangelist, gaining many “decisions” for Christ!
This is the dilemma of Ira and Dink, as they try to open the eyes of others to this man and his doctrine. Follow them as they face this new challenge of alerting others to the false teachings of this man, when the Christians around them seem more concerned about numbers and large crowds than they are about truth.
$12.95 -
A Journey in Inspiration (Richard Belcher)
$8.95Every pastor will on occasion be forced to define and defend his convictions about the nature of the inspiration of Scripture. What do we mean by “inspired”? In another theological novel (the 5th) of the ministry of Ira Pointer, not only is doctrine taught through a fascinating story, but the need to stand for truth in a Christ-like manner comes through, in this controversy which hotly rages over, what precisely is the Bible?
After several years without a theological pursuit, Pastor Ira Pointer sets off to seminary, only to find himself enmeshed once again in unique circumstances, which force him to define and defend his convictions concerning the nature of the inspiration of the Bible. In the unfolding of the plot of this story, surprises confront Ira from the very first day of class, while he solves the mystery of the identity of The Strawman, while his convictions firm up and his skill at defending the faith strengthened.

A Journey in Roman Catholicism (Richard Belcher)
$9.95What does a professor at a Baptist seminary do when he finds himself charged with holding a Roman Catholic position on important doctrines? What will he do when his own writings point to the conclusion that he is arguing in favor of a Roman Catholic view of theology and conversion? He’s going to be dismissed from his position!
Without even being given an opportunity to prove himself innocent of these charges, follow the dilemma Professor Ira Pointer finds himself in as he faces, “Who framed me?” and “How can I prove what I really believe?”

A Journey in Dispensationalism (Richard Belcher)
$8.95Theology can sometimes be very difficult to study, but it becomes even harder when a student has a bad attitude about the subject! So what’s Ira Pointer to do, when he is assigned to lead a study with a young man who truly lacks a teachable spirit? The young man holds views of prophecy that he vigorously defends, and such is the problem Ira runs headlong into – a study with a recalcitrant, know-it-all student, about the problems with Dispensationalism.

The Baptist Confession of Faith of 1689
$3.25C. H. Spurgeon said of this great Confession – “Here the youngest members of our church will have a body of Truth in small compass, and by means of the scriptural proofs, will be able to give a reason of the hope that is in them.”
This scholarly and brilliant summary of Biblical doctrine (in the same family as the Westminster Confession, but from a Baptist perspective) also includes Scriptural proof texts. Also includes a brief history of the Confession’s formation.

A Journey in Authority (Richard Belcher)

He has to study the Scriptures to determine:
- What is an elder?
- What authority does an elder have?
- And what are a church’s obligations to their elders, and his obligations to the church?

A Journey in Revival: True or False? (Richard Belcher)
$9.95Another theological novel in the series that began with A Journey in Grace.

Controversy swirls around the events as a careful theological analysis is done concerning the movement and its practices.

A Journey in Baptist History (Richard Belcher)
$8.95Many today, who call themselves Baptists, are totally ignorant of the history and beliefs of their early forefathers. As a result, they mistakenly label those today who are holding historic Baptist beliefs and practices as heretical—or at best they say such people just cannot be Baptists!
Ira Pointer, the central character of our “journey” books, is invited to speak for a number of weeks on Baptist history in a somewhat typical present day Baptist church. And when he teaches the true history and doctrine of the early Baptists, one man especially, the Chairman of the Deacons, tries every way possible to close down the studies. Ira Pointer, he thinks, is not a Baptist! The other people of the church are also shocked at what they hear, but they are gracious enough to listen to the presentation with open hearts and minds, and then they are shocked at what they had never been taught about Baptist history and doctrine!
Much turmoil and danger unfolds in both mystery and uncertainty, as Ira with the backing of Dink and the pastor sets forth his convictions concerning Baptist history!

A Journey in God’s Glory (Richard Belcher)
$8.95What’s a pastor to do, when he suddenly realizes that his ministry of many years has been a sham, all performed for himself and his own glory?

Former pastor, now professor Ira Pointer faces these decisions and lessons in another volume of the doctrinally rich stories known as The Journey Series.

Old Paths (J. C. Ryle)
$24.50Subtitled, “Being Plain Statements on some of the Weightier Matters of Christianity.” Some of Ryle’s most persuasive expositions on the great themes of the gospel.
It was the prophet Jeremiah who first used the expression ‘old paths’ and assured those who followed those paths would find ‘rest for (their) souls’ (Jeremiah 6:16). J.C. Ryle was of the same conviction and wrote:
“The longer I live the more I am convinced that the world needs no new Gospel, as some profess to think. I am thoroughly persuaded that the world needs nothing but bold, full, unflinching teaching of the ‘old paths’”.

The Priesthood of Christ: Its Necessity and Nature (John Owen)
$16.50Having studied the Epistle to the Hebrews in great depth and written the largest commentary ever composed on Hebrews, John Owen is able to give us a comprehensive guide to the subject of Christ in relation to the priesthood. He explains how the Old Testament themes such as Law and Covenant can relate to Christ’s office of Priest.
$19.99 -
The Holiness of God (R. C. Sproul)
$14.50One of the classics of modern Christian writing, and widely regarded as R.C. Sproul’s most powerful and influential book. Central to God’s character is the attribute of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.”
R. C. Sproul puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.
“Every Christian who is serious about his or her growth needs to read this book.”
— Jerry Bridges$17.99 -
What Does God Want of us Anyway? (Mark Dever)
$8.50Originally delivered as sermons by pastor Mark Dever at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington D. C., these three studies are now available in one hardcover volume. Dever guides readers to take a step back and look at the Bible from a broader perspective. As we notice new features of an object when viewed from a distance, so too the major themes of Scripture become more apparent when we take in the Bible as a whole. Part of the IXMarks series, this book considers the central messages of the Bible as seen in the promises of God.
Dever examines the general narrative of God’s Word to answer the question, “What does God wants of us anyway?” Readers looking for a panoramic view of Scripture will be reminded of the faithful, persistent love of God and find themselves drawn into a broader, but deeper, understanding of the maker and keeper of promises.

Whatever Happened to the Reformation? (Gary Johnson)
$14.50Bruce Ware, Darryl Hart, John MacArthur, and others join the editors in calling evangelicals to recover their Reformation roots. Too many evangelicals believe methodology and results trump theology. To reach a postmodern society, they too readily adopt an unbiblical view of God that many Americans find more palatable. Or they subsume Bible study and preaching to secondary status. Whatever Happened to the Reformation? urges us to turn to the theology of the Reformers and allow it to shape every aspect of church and family life. Take it and read!

The Gospel & Same-Sex Marriage (Russell Moore)
$10.39Christians should be known by what they are for, not simply what they are against. The Bible is unambiguously clear about marriage’s definition and purpose. So, Christians are for marriage. The Bible’s witness on marriage doesn’t allow for same-sex marriage, not because the Bible gives attention to same-sex marriage, but because the biblical narrative on marriage doesn’t conceive of same-sex marriage as within the realm of possibility. Yet, many Christians live among neighbors and under law-makers who disagree.
So, what now? Editors Russell Moore and Andrew T. Walker of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) assemble leading voices to frame the issues with a gospel-centered perspective. The Gospel for Life series gives every believer a biblically-saturated understanding of the most urgent issues facing our culture today, because the gospel is for all of life.
