The posting of book reviews does not constitute endorsement of the books or book reviews that are linked.

• Book review: A.S.K. by David Robertson -- “As anyone who has read David’s work before will know, his answers are not ambiguous or vague, but communicated precisely and clearly.”
• Book Review: Hearers and Doers, by Kevin Vanhoozer -- “Hearers and Doers is a book for pastors. The shepherds of the sheep have a unique responsibility to shape the “social imaginary” embedded in the soul of every Christian.”
• Book Review: Kerux Commentary Philippians -- “In summary, I find that the Kerux Commentary on Philippians is a technical, but easy to follow, commentary that is faithful to the biblical text and theologically conservative.”
• Book Review: Reformed Preaching, by Joel Beeke -- “Second, what makes this book unique is not just the way it defines the preaching task, but also the fact that it includes a healthy dose of historical theology and biography.”
• Book Review: Remember Death, by Matt McCullough -- “Our culture has tried, in every conceivable way, to remove our sense of death-awareness.”
• Book Review: The Creaking on the Stairs, by Mez McConnell -- “McConnell’s skillful use of Scripture, his readable style, along with his honesty and vulnerability provide a compelling example of how to wisely apply God’s word to the worst human experiences.”
• Book Review: The Man of God: Volume 1, by Albert Martin -- “I also appreciated that this book places a high priority on the local church and the congregation’s involvement in discerning whether or not a man is called into the ministry.”
• Book Review: ‘Warlike Christians in an Age of Violence’ -- “Megoran also gives some accounts of successful non-violent opposition to Nazism and suggests that if these had been repeated on a larger scale, Hitler might have been resisted successfully.”
• Dig Deeper by J.C. Watts, Jr. -- “JC Watts definitely scores another touchdown with Dig Deeper.”
• Review: Johnny Cash -- “Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon is a compelling and easy-to-read book, but it has its flaws.”
• Zionism: The Concise History – a book review by Rabbi Jeffrey Cohen -- “Given the world in which we live and given the convolutions in the United Kingdom about the Labor Party’s position on Anti-Semitism and the French parliament passing a resolution stating that Anti-Zionism is Anti-Semitism this book is important.”
