FESKO In a ground-breaking work, J.V.Fesko reminds us that the great news of this gospel message is rooted in eternity, whereby a covenant was made between the persons of the Trinity in order to redeem sinners like you and me. First of a three part series on covenant theology featuring Redemption, Grace and Works. “... displays the vitality and richness of the covenant of redemption for other doctrines-not least, the Trinity.

“Though it has sometimes been a forgotten doctrine of the Reformed faith, Fesko breaks the silence, retrieving the covenant of redemption afresh for a new generation.” MATTHEW BARRETT, Tutor of Systematic Theology and Church History, Oak Hill Theological College, London
“Some books today exegete the shining truths of the Holy Scriptures, others mine the treasures of Reformed orthodoxy, and yet others interact with influential theologians of the modern era. This book is one of the few that does all three, and does them well.” JOEL R. BEEKE, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan
J. V. FESKO is Academic Dean and Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology at Westminster Seminary in California.
DEATH IN ADAM; LIFE IN CHRIST
The Doctrine of Imputation J. V. FESKO J. V. Fesko works through the doctrine of imputation, looking at its long history in the church, its exegetical foundation, and its dogmatic formulation. In exploring imputed guilt from the First Adam alongside the imputed righteousness from the Second, this volume offers a helpfully well-rounded explanation of the doctrine. “Conversations over imputation are rarely informed by the history of interpretation. Fesko introduces us to seminal figures in this development and no engagement with original sin or justification should overlook his careful spade work.” MICHAEL HORTON, Professor of Systematic Theology & Apologetics, Westminster Seminary in California, Escondido, California
“In classic Reformed fashion, and with grace and style, John Fesko brings confessional exposition, historical survey, and exegesis together in what is sure to become the standard Reformed work on Imputation for generations to come.” BRIAN VICKERS, Professor of New Testament Interpretation and Biblical Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky

MENTOR COMMENTARIES
A Commentary you can trust to study the Bible One of Mentor’s key aims is to build up a library of credible commentaries. There are many academic commentaries, but very few hold to an inerrant view of Scripture as Mentor commentaries do. The result is a series of expositions of Scripture that successfully refute wilder departures from orthodoxy whilst appreciating and learning from latest theological research. This expanding series includes commentaries on the Old and the New Testament.

KINGDOM COME
The Amillennial Alternative SAM STORMS The second coming of Christ is a matter of sharp disagreement amongst Christians. Many hold to premillennialism: that Christ’s return will be followed by 1,000 years before the final judgement, a belief popularised in the popular Left Behind novels. However, premillennialism is not the only option for Christians. In this important new book, Sam Storms provides a biblical rationale for amillennialism; the belief that 1,000 years mentioned in the book of Revelation is symbolic with the emphasis being the King and his Kingdom. “This is a remarkable book which will surely become the standard bearer for Amillennialism for years to come.” KEVIN DEYOUNG, Senior Pastor, University Reformed Church, East Lansing, Michigan Large trade hardback, 592 pages 978-1-78191-132-7 £19.99 $29.99
“… is a substantial work on the viability of the Amillennial perspective on eschatology, including that of the Book of Revelation.....Even those who may disagree with Storms’ Amillennial approach will definitely benefit from his book.” G. K. BEALE, Professor of New Testament and Biblical Theology, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

SPIRIT EMPOWERED PREACHING
Involving The Holy Spirit in Your Ministry ARTURO G. AZURDIA III One of the great dangers that faces today’s preachers is the problem of an over intellectual approach. Careful, meditative and painstaking exegesis brings a potential liability, that of losing the vitality, which must accompany exposition. The Puritans called it ‘that certain unction’, Martyn Lloyd-Jones called it ‘an access of power’, others have called it ‘the anointing’. If you desire that your preaching be lifted up to a position in which you are being used by the Spirit as a channel, then Arturo Azurdia can help you. The insights in this book are gained from Art’s careful study and practical experiences of being used by the Holy Spirit in his ministry. Large trade paperback, 192 pages 978-1-85792-413-8 £10.99 $17.99 CONTENTS Foreword by John H. Armstrong Introduction 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

“Seldom does a book arise of which one can say, ‘This should be essential reading for preachers at whatever stage of their ministry!’ But I can say this honestly of this book... It has made me wish that I could start all over again.” DEREK PRIME, Author and former pastor of Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh
“Arturo Azurdia believes that much modern preaching is powerless. Sadly, he is right... in a searching and warmhearted analysis he shows how the situation should and can be remedied.” JOHN BLANCHARD

ARTURO G. AZURDIA III is Senior Minister of Word and Worship at Trinity Church in Portland, Oregon. He is also Associate Professor of Pastoral and Church Ministry at Western Seminary and Founder and Director of The Spurgeon Fellowship.

H. Spurgeon.

THE LORD’S SUPPER AS A MEANS OF GRACE More Than a Memory
RICHARD C. BARCELLOS In what way can we consider the Lord’s Supper more than just a memorial service but a means of grace? In this impressive new study, Richard Barcellos shows that the Lord’s Supper is a means of grace because of what the Holy Spirit does in the souls of believers when local churches partake of it. “Richard Barcellos reclaims the Lord’s Supper as a means of grace.” CARL R. TRUEMAN, Paul Woolley Professor of Historical Theology and Church History, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
“Richard Barcellos is to be commended heartily for detailing the biblical and theological foundations of what our forefathers in the Faith knew well.” MICHAEL A. G. HAYKIN, Professor of Church History and Biblical Spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky

A KIRK DISRUPTED
Charles Cowan MP and The Free Church of Scotland A. DONALD MACLEOD Charles Cowan was a significant figure in 19th Century Scotland. Paper-manufacturer, financier, intellectual and philanthropist, Cowan was a man of wide interests and connections. As a member of the House of Commons he spoke for the rising Scottish middle class. He was a major lay supporter of the newly formed Free Church of Scotland and helped to fund the building of over 1,000 churches, manses, schools, and a theological college, leaving a legacy that is often felt more than known or acknowledged.

C. H. SPURGEON DAILY READINGS C. H. SPURGEON the great Victorian preacher, was one of the most influential people of the second half of the 19th Century. At the heart of his desire to preach was a fierce love of people, a desire that meant he did not neglect his pastoral ministry. Find inspiration and encouragement for every season from the ‘Prince of Preachers’.

Notes
Do we need journeying mercies? Here are choice ones – God’s presence and preservation. In all places we need both of these, and in all places we shall have them if we go at the call of duty, and not merely according to our own fancy. Why should we look upon removal to another country as a sorrowful necessity when it is laid upon us by the divine will? In all lands the believer is equally a pilgrim and a stranger; and yet in every region the Lord is his dwelling place, even as he has been to his saints in all generations. We may miss the protection of an earthly monarch, but when God says, ‘I will keep thee’, we are in no real danger. This is a blessed passport for a traveller, and a heavenly escort for an emigrant. Jacob had never left his father’s room before: he had been a mother’s boy, and not an adventurer like his brother. Yet he went abroad, and God went with him. He had little luggage, and no attendants; yet no prince ever journeyed with nobler bodyguard. Even while he slept in the open eld, angels watched over him, and the Lord God spoke to him. If the Lord bids us go, let us say with our Lord Jesus, ‘Arise, let us go hence.’ 30

‘My God will hear me’
A short reading for every day. Spurgeon wrote this selection of readings to encourage believers to enter into the full provision that their relationship to Jesus entitled them to realise, on a daily basis. He explains we have to present the promises of Scripture to God in prayer and faith, anticipating that he will honour what he has said. This beautiful journal edition is the perfect daily companion.
MICAH 7:7.
Friends may be unfaithful, but the Lord will not turn away from the gracious soul; on the contrary, he will hear all its desires. The prophet says, ‘Keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom. A man’s enemies are the men of his own house.’ This is a wretched state of affairs; but even in such a case the Best Friend remains true, and we may tell him all our grief. Our wisdom is to look unto the Lord, and not to quarrel with men or women. If our loving appeals are disregarded by our own relatives, let us wait upon the God of our salvation, for he will hear us. He will hear us all the more because of the unkindness and oppression of others, and we shall soon have reason to cry, ‘Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy!’ Because God is the living God, he can hear; because he is a loving God, he will hear; because he is our covenant God, he has bound himself to hear us. If we can each one speak of him as ‘My God,’ we may with absolute certainty say, ‘My God will hear me.’ Come, then, O bleeding heart, and let thy sorrows tell themselves out to the Lord thy God! I will bow the knee in secret, and inwardly whisper, ‘My God will hear me.’

THE MARROW OF MODERN DIVINITY EDWARD FISHER Penned as a dialogue between a minister (Evangelista), a young Christian (Neophytus), a legalist (Nomista) who believes Christianity is a set of rules to be obeyed and Antinomista who thinks it’s okay to sin because God will forgive him anyway, it makes for a wonderfully insightful book that remains tremendously relevant for our world today. “...one of the most important theological texts of all time” DEREK THOMAS, Senior Minister of Preaching and Teaching, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina Hardback, 392 pages 978-1-84550-479-3 £24.99 $39.99
