How Should We Then Live? The Rise and Decline of Western Thought and Culture
by
"This is one of those rare books that makes your jaw drop for its insight into our time, even though it was "contemporary" a generation ago! It was formative for me as a young Christian. It remains so each time I read it or see the companion video series.

Systematic Theology
by
"Berkhof's classic is an amazingly concise statement of 20th Reformed Theology in the 20th century; it is surprisingly clear and concrete, given its tendency to interface historical, biblical and systematic perspectives. "

Biblical Theology: Old and New Testaments
by
"This seminal work of 20th century theology spawned a new discipline for Evangelical scholars and in seminaries, a method that has ripened in 21st century works like Beale's New Testament Biblical Theology. It's fruits are rich for the next generation of Bible-readers."

Foundations of the Christian Faith
by
"Though Dr. Boice is gone, his pastor-scholar stamp remains undiminished on this book. Incisive, apologetic, orthodox, engaging and practical, we have used it for discipleship at our church with great results! "

Finding the Will of God: A Pagan Notion?
by
"Though Dr. Waltke is a preeminent Old Testament scholar, he speaks with grandfatherly wisdom and tenderness in this instructive book--this while confronting the idols of contemporary Christians, especially our tendency to remake God in our too-small image. Read this book! It will give you confidence in your walk, replacing pagan superstition with supernatural, rational faith. "

Your God Is Too Small
by
"We all tend to re-make God in our image. That's the essence of idolatry. This book confronts that tendency. Dated and somewhat culture-bound, Phillips' little book is still a bombshell, clearing enemy territory for the living God to take residence in our minds and hearts. "
