God the Preacher and the Apologist (Lance Quinn)
$17.49$21.95
Throughout the centuries of the Christian church, there have been many different approaches and applied methods in the field of apologetics. Yet only one approach, presuppositionalism, is truly compatible with expository preaching, each sphere relying principally on God the Preacher and Apologist. The twin concepts of biblical exposition in the pulpit, and presuppositionalism in the marketplace, must start and end with (and maintain throughout) a consistent and abiding reliance on the sufficiency and superiority of Holy Scripture. Apologetic approaches other than the presuppositionalist approach often start with arguments other than Scripture for their defense of the faith, thus blunting the impact God’s Word can powerfully and effectively have in the apologetic encounter. This is no less true for the expository preaching method too, given powerfully to those who profess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and collectively gather to hear God’s Word. To bring maximum impact to both believers and unbelievers alike, expository preaching and presuppositional apologetics should be closely tethered, as each method starts, and consistently provides throughout, the God-intended response for all mankind.

God the Preacher and the Apologist
The Essential Relationship of Presuppositional Apologetics and Expository Preaching
Throughout the centuries of the Christian church, there have been many different approaches and applied methods in the field of apologetics. Yet only one approach, presuppositionalism, is truly compatible with expository preaching, each sphere relying principally on God the Preacher and Apologist. The twin concepts of biblical exposition in the pulpit, and presuppositionalism in the marketplace, must start and end with (and maintain throughout) a consistent and abiding reliance on the sufficiency and superiority of Holy Scripture. Apologetic approaches other than the presuppositionalist approach often start with arguments other than Scripture for their defense of the faith, thus blunting the impact God’s Word can powerfully and effectively have in the apologetic encounter.

Endorsements:
The terms expository preaching and bible exposition have been so broadly construed in the church today that they have become mere clichés. Preachers are hailed as “expositors” who only hover over texts or wander quickly from a passage to offer their opinions. Churches advertise an expository ministry, but no one seems able to define it in simple terms. And scores of seminary graduates are convinced that expository preaching is just one option among several approaches to the pulpit. We desperately need bedrock clarity on this issue. With precision and pastoral heart, Lance Quinn takes us below the clichés and confusion to the cornerstone truth on which all preaching must be built: God is the preacher of His own Word. Every faithful expositor will find his heart re-energized as Quinn shows the essential link between expositional preaching and a robust presuppositional defense of the truth. And this book is not only a defense of exposition but an example of how it is done. Quinn has brilliantly woven sermon material into the book to anchor us to its thesis. This will be every diligent expositor’s “go-to” volume for helping the church get back to real preaching.

The Forgotten Trinity, Revised and Updated Edition (James R. White)
$13.99Discover the Living Truth of a Foundational Christian Belief
The Trinity is one of the most important teachings of the Christian faith. It defines God’s very essence and describes how he relates to us.
In this book, Dr. James R. White offers a concise, understandable explanation of what the Trinity is and why it matters. While refuting the distortions of God presented by various cults, Dr. White shows how understanding this teaching leads to renewed worship and a deeper understanding of what it means to be a Christian. And amid today’s emphasis on the renewing work of the Holy Spirit, The Forgotten Trinity is a balanced look at all three persons of the Trinity.
May this book deepen your understanding of this important doctrine while also drawing you closer to the triune God himself.
“No doctrine is more fundamental to the Faith than the Trinity. And there is no more brief, clear, biblical, and practical explanation of the Trinity than in these pages.”–DR. NORMAN L. GEISLER, Christian apologist and author of Systematic Theology
“White’s clear argument demonstrates that the historic Christian doctrine of the Trinity is fully and inescapably biblical. The refutation of Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons is very helpful.“–DR. J.I. PACKER, retired professor, Regent College
“The Trinity is a doctrine where error is especially deadly. James White superbly establishes the biblical basis of trinitarianism, examining its nuances and its place in church history. His lucid presentation will help layperson and pastor alike. Highly recommended.”–DR. JOHN MACARTHUR, senior pastor, Grace Community Church
James Robert White (DMin, Columbia Theological Seminary) is the director of Alpha and Omega Ministries, an evangelical reformed Christian apologetics organization based in Phoenix, Arizona. He is the author of more than twenty books, including What Every Christian Needs to Know About the Qur’an and The God Who Justifies. James and his wife live in Phoenix, Arizona.$16.99 -
Schaeffer on the Christian Life: Countercultural Spirituality (William Edgar)
$14.99Francis Schaeffer was one of the most influential apologists of the twentieth century. Through his speaking, writing, and filmmaking, Schaeffer successfully transformed the way people thought of the Christian faith, from a rather private kind of piety to a worldview that addresses every sphere of life. This volume—written by a man converted from agnosticism within days of meeting Schaeffer—is the first book devoted to exploring the heart and soul of Schaeffer’s approach to the Christian life, and will help readers strive after the same kind of marriage of thought and life, of orthodoxy and love.
