The Exemplary Husband: A Biblical Perspective
| Author | Stuart W. Scott |
| ISBN | 1885904312 |
God ordained marriage between a man and a woman for companionship, procreation, and so man would have a helper suitable. However, God says much more in the Bible about husbands loving their wives than He says about wives submitting to their husbands. He created marriage to be a picture of the relationship...

It is no secret that our world desperately needs change. Politicians, journalists, advertisers--each of these groups (and countless others) spend their lives working to convince others that they hold the key to a better country, a better life, a better future. A Primer on Worship and Reformation...
| Author | Peter J. Leithart |
| ISBN | 1591280060 |
How could a conservative Christian - an ordained minister with a beard, no less - be against not only Christianity, but theology, sacraments, and ethics as well? Yet that is the stance Peter Leithart takes in this provocative theological bricolage. Seeking to rethink evangelical notions of culture,...
This book sets forth the Biblical understanding of the world, and then traces the development of that world through the successive "covenants" of the Bible—each new covenant transforming the previous one, bringing forth "a new world." Each of these "worlds" was given a symbolic model appropriate...

| Author | Christopher Hitchens |
| ISBN | 1591280532 |
Latest salvo in the New Atheism saga. This is a debate between Hitchens (atheist) and Wilson (Christian). Both are good rhetoricians, chuckles will accompany a read of this book. Wilson isn't a sophisticated apologist or philosopher. Hitchens is neither for his side. Both would have troubles if they...

You Who? Why You Matter and How to Deal With It
| Author | Rachel Jankovic |
| ISBN | 1947644475 |
If "Who am I?" is the question you're asking, Rachel Jankovic doesn't want you to "find yourself" or "follow your heart." Those lies are nothing to the confidence, freedom, and clarity of course that come with knowing what is actually essential about you. And the answer to that question is at once less...
The Household and the War for the Cosmos: Recovering a Christian Vision for the Family
Really good book which doesn't quite fit the genre, at least not as you probably anticipate. There's a very compelling comparison of Abraham and Aeneas in the first half, and the second half gives a good explanation of "household" (oikonomia) and a very interesting reading of Ephesians with that perspective....
