Acts 20: Fierce Wolves are Coming – Guard the Flock (Alexander Strauch)
$16.50A new study of Paul’s final charge to the Ephesian elders.Â
“Any church elder who does not know the content of Paul’s message to the Ephesian elders is ill-equipped to lead and protect God’s people.” — Alexander Strauch, author of this book on Acts 20Â
God has given us a special gift in Paul’s farewell message to the Ephesian elders (Acts 20:17-38). There is really nothing else in the New Testament comparable to this passage. In Acts 20: Fierce Wolves are Coming; Guard the Flock Alexander Strauch provides an in-depth yet practical exposition of this extraordinary portion of Scripture.
History amply demonstrates that the truths of Paul’s message cannot be overstated or repeated too often. The appalling, centuries-long failure to stop false teachers from invading churches can be traced directly back to ignorance of or disobedience to Paul’s prophetic warnings to the Ephesian elders. Paul’s instructions and pleas to the Ephesian elders are just as critically needed today as they were that day on the shores of Miletus.

Encouragement for Today’s Pastors: Help from the Puritans (Joel R. Beeke)
$13.75The Scriptures advise us to learn from examples of faithful ministers (Heb. 13:7). The Puritans were a group of such ministers whose teaching and living can be particularly encouraging to troubled and discouraged pastors today. They were steadfast in adhering to Scripture as the Word of God, in confessing the great truths of the Reformed faith, and in applying sound doctrine to the problems of life in an age and culture nearly as challenging as our own.
In Encouragement for Today’s Pastors, Joel R. Beeke and Terry D. Slachter examine the writings of these pastors of a bygone era consider how they can help struggling pastors today. Here pastors will find a helping hand, reminding them of the importance of cultivating personal piety, resting in God’s sovereignty recovering clarity in their calling, discovering means of support God provided, recognizing the dignity of their office, and taking comfort in grace and glory to come.

The Trellis and the Vine: The Ministry Mind-Shift That Changes Everything
$11.50A book that Mark Dever calls “the best book I’ve read on the nature of church ministry.” Helps the reader think through, both biblically and practically, the dangers of being busy as a full-time pastor and how it can rob you of focus on what ought to be the priorities in your time. Digging more deeply into the New Testament’s view of Christian ministry, the authors argue that a major mind-shift is necessary for many churches and pastors if we are to fulfill the Great Commission and see disciples grow in grace.
There is vine work: the prayerful preaching and teaching of the word of God to see people converted and grow to maturity as disciples of Christ. Vine work is the Great Commission.

He then shares with readers the primary lessons which can be learned from each interaction.
