What if the biggest danger to the church of Jesus Christ is not blatant heresy, the moral failures of church leaders, persecution, the rise of Islam or the loss of our rights? What if the biggest threat is counterfeit gospels within the church, ways of thinking and speaking about the good news that lead to a gradual drift from the truth of Scripture? The gospel is like a three-legged stool. There’s the Gospel Story – the grand narrative of Scripture (Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration). Within that overarching framework, we make the Gospel Announcement about Jesus Christ (His perfect life, substitutionary death, resurrection, exaltation). The gospel announcement then births the Gospel Community: God’s church – the embodiment of the gospel, the manifestation of God’s kingdom. A counterfeit gospel is like a colony of termites, eating away at one of the legs of this stool until the whole thing topples over. This book exposes six common counterfeits (Therapeutic, Judgmentless, Moralist, Quietist, Activist, and Churchless) that would get us off track. The goal of Counterfeit Gospels is to so deepen our love for the unchanging gospel of Jesus Christ that we would easily see through the many counterfeits that leave us impoverished. So come, love the gospel, recognize and overcome the counterfeits, and be empowered for ministry!

Presented here, in paperback for the first time, is John Peter Lange's Theologischhomiletisches Bibelwerk. Intended to help preachers prepare sermons the commentary series is essentially biblical and evangelical catholic. This 19th century commentary has served as a standard reference for more than a century. Many early reviewers regarded Schaff's edition with his additional material as superior to the original. It has proven to be a complete and useful Commentary and continues to prove especially valuable to ministers. It contains critical annotations of the text and its translation, and a threefold commentary, exegetical, doctrinal, and homiletical. Under these three heads the text is viewed from every aspect.

In this modern collection of poetry, I share my spiritual journey from sinner to discipleship. While I still struggle with my demons, I find comfort in the poems that are placed in my heart and I share them because I know that I am not the only one struggling to orient my heart and mind amid the disorientation that we wake up to these days. In a world where lies are given the starring role at center stage in a play of made-up things. I promise these poems will give you much to think about and contemplate Truth eternal, Love unconditional, Light revealing, and the Salt that gives life flavor. This is certainly not your traditional poetry collection as it flows off your lips and performs visual stunts while challenging your world of mirrors and mazes. You will experience a journey through melodious words that, at times, winds you down a rabbit hole and then sends a lifeline to lift you out of the darkness and into the light of truth and love. When times are especially dark, instead of stumbling and cursing you reach for the Light of the world and salt the earth with truth.
