This was a satisfying book. It is not a scholarly examination of the doctrine, but a practical, "grass roots" examination of the doctrine with a little scholarly knowledge thrown in here and there. Dr. White uses a dialogue style of writing throughout much of the book to assert his points. And while at first I was not fond of this, I ended up mildly enjoying it towards the latter sections of the book.

Dr. White begins by giving arguments for the sufficiency of scripture and then defining and furt...more

How can Christians remain faithful to the end of their lives? Many Christians in America are preparing to retire or have already done so. Others face their senior years with little direction or purpose. The authors of this book (edited by John Piper and Justin Taylor) convincingly argue that the ‘golden years’ should be times of faithful service and increased devotion to the Lord. The result is a challenging book, recommended for believers of all ages.
Paul Lawrence
An excellent read. While not designed to be the standard for scholarly training, White does a very good job at defining what Scriptural inerrancy and sufficiency is truly is, and not what most Christians would assume they are.

In addition, White walks through several types of "conversations" one might have in regards to the Scriptures. An excellent resource for any serious student of the Bible.

Dr. White gives a thorough defense of the doctrine of Sola Scriptura, one of the 5-Solas of the Reformation. He defends this view against the infallible church and Pope view held by the Catholic church as well as the liberal theological views of Scripture. Anyone wanting to know what Scripture itself teaches on this subject will want to read this.
