KEVIN DEYOUNG Crazy Busy

Crazy Busy A (Mercifully) Short Book about a (Really) Big Problem

5 x 7, Trade Paperback, 160 pages 978-1-4335-3338-9, $11.99 BISAC: RELIGION / Christian Life / General (REL012000)

I’m too busy. We’ve all heard it; we’ve all said it. Sometimes being busy seems like the theme of our lives. Yet this frenetic pace poses a serious threat to our physical, social, and even spiritual well-being. In this short book about a big problem, best-selling author Kevin DeYoung rejects the “busyness as usual” mindset, arguing that a life of constant chaos is far from what God intends. DeYoung helps us figure out a better way forward as he strikes a mature and well-reasoned balance between doing nothing and doing everything. With his usual warmth, humor, and honesty, DeYoung deftly attacks the widespread “crazy busy” epidemic and offers up the restful cure we’ve all been too busy to find.

Found in Him The Joy of the Incarnation and Our Union with Christ Believers’ union with Christ stands at the heart of the gospel. Thankfully, this neglected doctrine is garnering renewed interest among academics and lay people alike. Writing with everyday readers in mind, Elyse Fitzpatrick embarks on a journey of discovery and joy as she explores the wonder of the Incarnation and the glory of the Christian’s unbreakable connection to Christ. Fitzpatrick looks at the Bible’s use of marriage as a metaphor for the relationship that Christians enjoy with their Savior, examining its significance for understanding key doctrines such as Jesus’s death, resurrection, and ascension. Directing Christians to the core of their salvation, this devotional book will stir readers’ affections for God and renew their confidence as beloved children “in Christ.”

JOHN PIPER

Does God Desire All to Be Saved?

When people start talking about predestination versus free will, the question is nearly always raised: Does God really desire all to be saved?

If God elects some and not others, how can biblical passages that say God wants the whole world to be saved be true? Drawing explicitly from the Bible, pastor John Piper argues that God’s choice to elect some and not others is fully compatible with his genuine desire that all people would be saved. With humility and grace, Piper addresses common Arminian pillar texts, showing how they do not contradict God’s absolute sovereignty in salvation. Aiming to encourage passionate worship and energetic mission—not intellectual pride—this short book serves as a helpful introduction to this often debated issue.

Now in its third edition and featuring a new foreword by New York Times best-selling author David Platt, pastor Mark Dever’s classic book is not an instruction manual for church growth.

Church leaders and church members alike will resonate with the principles outlined here, breathing new life and health into the church at large. In this newly revised edition, fresh arguments have been added (for example, on expositional preaching, about the nature of the gospel, on complementarianism), illustrations have been updated, appendices have been changed, and the cover has been improved.

TIM CHESTER

Good News to the Poor Social Involvement and the Gospel Help them or tell them? Be like Jesus or talk about Jesus? Social action or gospel proclamation? It seems the two are often pitted against each other, as if they are mutually exclusive. But the New Testament paints a different picture where both aspects are valued. In this plea for a renewed understanding of the Christian calling, Chester argues that faithfulness to the gospel necessitates a commitment to evangelism and social involvement. To that end, he structures the book around three basic theses: 1) evangelism and social action are distinct activities, 2) proclamation is central, and 3) evangelism and social action are inseparable. Responding to Christians in both camps, Chester helps people to talk the talk and walk the walk.

DISTINCTIVES

• Written by a church planter with over 25 years of experience thinking and writing about the intersection between evangelism and social action • Calls Christians to a dual commitment to gospel proclamation and social involvement, arguing that one reinforces the other • Each chapter ends with a summary as well as a suggested reading list • Author’s previous books (Total Church, You Can Change, and A Meal with Jesus) have sold well and are popular both in the US and the UK

TIM CHESTER (PhD, University of Wales) is pastor of the Crowded House in Sheffield, United Kingdom, and director of the Porterbrook Seminary, which provides integrated theological and missional training for church leaders.

The Pastor’s Justification Applying the Work of Christ in Your Life and Ministry Ministry can be brutal. Discouragement, frustration, and exhaustion are common experiences for all church leaders, often resulting in a lack of joy and a loss of focus. Aiming to encourage and strengthen pastors in particular, Jared Wilson helps readers rediscover the soul-satisfying gospel of grace as he creatively merges biblical exposition and personal confession. In addition to covering topics such as holiness, humility, and confidence, Wilson explores the nature of pastoral ministry through the lens of the five solas of the Reformation. Full of real-world examples from the author’s own life and ministry, this book reminds all pastors that their justification is not found in ministry success or audience approval, but rather in the finished work of Christ.

What Is the Meaning of Sex? Sex is a big deal. And in our postmodern, post-Christian culture, Christians are feeling the pressure to ditch their traditional beliefs and conform to society’s evolving views on sexuality and gender.

Responding to the pressure with conviction and clarity, this book spells out the Bible’s teaching on sex, arguing that the ultimate goal of all human sexuality is the glory of God. After outlining key biblical standards and explaining the true purposes for sex (procreation, pleasure, love, etc.), the latter portion of the book explores controversial issues such as homosexuality, the transgender movement, and polygamy.

Firmly rooted in the pages of Scripture, this book sets forth a compelling vision of sexuality that is both soul-satisfying and God-glorifying.

DISTINCTIVES

• Articulates Christian convictions regarding sex and sexuality • Examines topics such as gender, sex, marriage, and singleness • Speaks to hot-button issues such as homosexuality, the transgender movement, and polygamy • Contains helpful charts and diagrams

JERRAM BARRS

Delighting in the Law of the Lord God’s Alternative to Legalism and Moralism Our culture has a few catch phrases: Be who you want to be. Do what makes you happy. We are told to do our own thing and follow our own rules, which often makes the Bible appear to be oppressively restrictive and hopelessly outdated, even to Christians! Responding to the misdirection of our society and misperceptions the church has of God’s law, Professor Jerram Barrs helps readers recognize the beauty in and purpose of God’s rules for living healthy, productive, and fulfilling lives. From the Old Testament to the New, Barrs demonstrates how God’s commands to his people were intended to protect them from sin and direct them in godliness. Rejecting the idea that we can earn God’s favor through good works, Barrs nevertheless highlights how God’s commands should spur us to obedience and ultimately remind us of grace.

DISTINCTIVES

• Draws on the author’s experience as a professor of Christian studies and contemporary culture • Helps readers embrace God’s law as a gracious and helpful gift • Combats all legalism and moralism that would distract from the centrality of the gospel • Written with both Christian and non-Christian readers in mind

JERRAM BARRS (MDiv, Covenant Theological Seminary) is the founder and resident scholar of the Francis Schaeffer Institute at Covenant Theological Seminary, where he teaches apologetics and outreach as professor of Christianity and contemporary culture. He and his wife also served on staff at the English L’Abri for many years.

Can You Believe It’s True?

Christian Apologetics in a Modern and Postmodern Era Can we know the truth? Many people today would say no. For some, truth is not knowable, and for others, it does not even exist.

This paradigmatic shift to relativism presents a direct challenge to Christian witness, and the challenge must be answered. In this timely new resource, noted scholar John Feinberg argues that truth matters, offering readers a robust guide to Christian apologetics for engagement with our world today. After examining the modern and postmodern approaches to truth and knowledge, Feinberg reviews a variety of apologetic arguments used and promoted by Christians throughout the centuries. Finally, Feinberg illustrates his own methodology by exploring a number of key Christian evidences, effectively demonstrating that truth does exist and that it is within our reach.

DISTINCTIVES

• Author is a seminary professor with over 30 years of experience teaching and writing on philosophy, apologetics, and theology • Responds to both modern and postmodern skepticism regarding truth and the Christian faith • Includes detailed explanations of several classic Christian approaches to apologetics including reformed epistemology, presuppositionalism, and evidentialism

JOHN S. FEINBERG (PhD, University of Chicago) is department chair and professor of biblical and systematic theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He is the author of Ethics for a Brave New World (with Paul D. Feinberg), No One Like Him: The Doctrine of God, and is general editor of Crossway’s Foundations of Evangelical Theology series.

JASON MEYER

Preaching A Biblical Theology The sermon is under attack. Many churches are increasingly forsaking formal preaching in favor of substitutes like dialogue, discussion, and sharing. In response to this recent trend, Jason Meyer has written a robust, biblical, and practical theology of preaching where he explores how the concept of preaching develops throughout the Bible and how it impacts one’s understanding of other key doctrines. In addition to offering readers a comprehensive overview of the Bible’s teaching, the book sets forth clear, accessible answers to commonly raised questions about preaching: what is it, how is it done, and why is it so important?

Combining in-depth study of God’s Word with practical reflection on the place of preaching in the ministry of the church, Meyer challenges readers to re-examine the importance of preaching for the Christian life.

DISTINCTIVES

• Offers readers both a biblical theology and a practical theology of preaching • Examines the development of preaching throughout the Bible— specifically in the Pentateuch, the Prophets, the Writings, the Gospels and Acts, the letters of Paul, and the General Epistles • Explores how beliefs about preaching come to bear on key topics such as Scripture, the Trinity, sin, salvation, and the church • Can be used as a textbook on preaching in seminaries • Written by the successor to John Piper at Bethlehem Baptist Church Preaching 6 x 9, Trade Paperback, 352 pages 978-1-4335-1971-0, $22.99 BISAC: RELIGION / Christian Ministry / Preaching

MARCUS PETER JOHNSON

One with Christ An Evangelical Theology of Salvation Regeneration, justification, sanctification—these are the primary words that come to mind when talking about the theology of salvation. However, the Bible teaches that each of these concepts is firmly rooted in something more foundational: our union with Christ. In this accessible book, Johnson introduces us to this neglected doctrine, arguing that it is the dominant organizing concept for salvation in the New Testament. In eight thought-provoking chapters, Johnson shows how a believer’s position “in Christ” is the lens through which other all other facets of salvation should be understood. Interacting extensively with the biblical text and drawing on lessons from church history, Johnson presents a compelling case for the unique importance of this beautiful, biblical doctrine.

DISTINCTIVES

• Offers an accessible overview of union with Christ—a theological topic currently attracting increased scholarly and pastoral interest • Explores the relationship between union with Christ and other key doctrines such as justification, sanctification, adoption, and perseverance • Includes a discussion of the significance of a believer’s union with Christ for understanding ecclesiology, specifically with regard to baptism and communion • Draws on insights from historical figures such as Augustine, Luther, and Calvin One with Christ MARCUS PETER JOHNSON (PhD, University of Toronto) is assistant professor of theology at Moody Bible Institute. In addition to writing his doctoral dissertation on union with Christ in the theology of John Calvin, he is the author of several scholarly essays. He and his wife, Stacie, live in Chicago and are members of Holy Trinity Church.

Covenantal Apologetics Principles and Practice in Defense of Our Faith In an age when the works of “New Atheists” such as Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins fill bookstores and top best-seller lists, the topic of Christian apologetics has never been more timely. Yet the thought of defending the faith against the attacks of unbelievers is daunting to many Christians. Following in the footsteps of groundbreaking apologist Cornelius Van Til, Scott Oliphint has written an accessible introduction to Reformed apologetics, explaining the biblical and theological principles behind a distinctly “covenantal” approach and offering practical guidance for interacting with and persuading those who don’t believe. Written for leaders and laypeople alike, this book will encourage and equip Christians to boldly proclaim the gospel and answer the challenges of skeptics in an increasingly skeptical world.

DISTINCTIVES

• Explores biblical and theological foundations for Christian apologetics • Includes practical examples of apologetic conversations with unbelievers • Written by a well-respected apologist who also coedited Christian Apologetics Past and Present, a two-volume overview of apologetics throughout church history • Provides the fullest defense of presuppositionalism and covenantal apologetics while also offering the most practical application

K. SCOTT OLIPHINT (PhD, Westminster Theological Seminary) is professor of apologetics and systematic theology at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia and has written numerous scholarly articles and books, including God With Us. He is the coeditor of the two-volume Christian Apologetics Past and Present: A Primary Source Reader, as well as Revelation and Reason: New Essays in Reformed Apologetics.

In addition to providing a brief biographical sketch of this leading revivalist, Sanders spends equal time exploring Wesley’s take on the central truths of the faith and those doctrines that uniquely characterize the Wesleyan approach to spirituality.

JOHN D. CURRID

Against the Gods The Polemical Theology of the Old Testament Did Moses borrow ideas from his cultural neighbors when he wrote the Pentateuch? Scholars disagree on the relationship between portions of the Old Testament and similar ancient Near Eastern accounts. Following in the footsteps of higher critics, some evangelical scholars now argue that Moses drew significantly from the worldview of his pagan contemporaries. Respected Old Testament scholar John Currid, however, pushes back against this trend by highlighting the highly polemical nature of Moses’s writings. From the Genesis creation account to the story of Israel’s exodus from Egypt, Currid shows how the biblical authors continually emphasized the futility of paganism in contrast with the unparalleled worldview of the Hebrews. Currid’s penetrating analysis and thoughtful argumentation make this a groundbreaking resource for anyone interested in this ongoing discussion.

DISTINCTIVES

• Written by a distinguished Old Testament scholar and Egyptologist with many years of experience studying ancient Near Eastern religions • Responds to the tendency within Old Testament studies to emphasize radical continuity between the Old Testament and ancient pagan mythology • Contains a helpful overview of the history of ancient Near Eastern studies

JOHN D. CURRID (PhD, University of Chicago) is the Carl McMurray Professor of Old Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, North Carolina. He lectures worldwide and preaches in the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church. Currid is the author of several books and Old Testament commentaries and has extensive archaeological field experience from projects throughout Israel and Tunisia.

TODD WILSON

Galatians Gospel-Rooted Living Paul’s letter to the Galatians stands as a key book in the Bible, especially as it relates to the Old Testament Law and to the Christian’s “freedom in Christ.” Paul’s emphasis on Jesus’s substitutionary death, justification by faith, and the work of the Spirit makes the letter crucial for a complete understanding of the New Testament’s teaching on salvation through faith in Christ. Combining scholarly depth with practical wisdom, pastor Todd Wilson has written a commentary based on years of ministry experience and biblical reflection, resulting in a resource that is exegetically engaged, theologically informed, and pastorally relevant.

Paul’s passionate exhortation for the Galatians to return and cling to the gospel that saved them remains relevant today, reminding modern readers of the importance of God’s grace for all of life.

This specially prepared material outlines passage-by-passage God’s redemptive purposes of grace that echo all through Scripture and culminate in Christ. And focusing on heart transformation rather than mere behavior modification, its points of application emphasize the Hows and Whys of practical application to daily living.

Produced out of the conviction that the Bible is a unified message of God’s grace culminating in Jesus, the Gospel Application Bible is a significant new tool to help readers see Christ in all the Bible, and the gospel in all of life.
