If you're going to call it "home" for eternity, don't you want to know what it's like? Our pictures of heaven range from comical to curious, mystical to fictitious, with bits of biblical truth thrown in. But if heaven is our future, and we are to be living with an eternal mind-set in the present, a Hollywood scriptwriter's interpretation of the afterlife just won't suffice. Quite simply, we need to know more about what lies ahead for the sake of what lies in front of us today.

John Owen is widely regarded as one of the most influential English Puritans. As a pastor, he longed to see the glory of Christ take root in people’s lives. As a writer, he continues to encourage us toward discipline and communion with God. His high view of God and deep theological convictions flowed naturally into practical application and a zeal for personal holiness. Barrett and Haykin guide us through the seventeenth-century theologian’s life and doctrine, giving us a glimpse into the majestic vision that served as the foundation for his approach to the Christian life.

This book offers a radically different perspective from that of many best-selling authors concerning how the Christian should measure and evaluate travel along God's path of righteousness. It will endeavor to persuade the listener that by feeding regularly on the Gospel in the Preached Word and The Supper, God promises to have His way with the Christian and He alone will accomplish all that is needed for life in Him to be complete. He is not waiting or requiring you to do anything first (during or after) to provide you with every blessing of the Gospel.

Spiritually, the single most powerful moment in history is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Often, that which is the cornerstone and centerpiece of the Christian faith has been reduced to something many believers assume they grasp, understand, or have figured out. It’s as if we think the cross is elementary in our understanding of Christianity. Yet, it’s applying The Glory of the Cross that grants us access into the very depths of intimately knowing and experiencing God Almighty.

The Five Solas series offers a look back to the five rallying cries of the Reformation - the five solas - while seeking to apply them in a fresh way to the contemporary church.

Preachers often quote this majestic promise in describing the consummation of history, the restoration of all things at the end of time. But few seek to uncover the passion of God in this promise: he wants us to know his glory, and he wants us to know it here on earth. What on Earth Is Glory? is one man's journey into this desire of God.

The Spirit-controlled life is not a wild, reckless, fanatical approach to life’s problems. Rather it is the recognition that no man can ascend the hill of God under his own steam. The Kingdom of God is a spiritual kingdom, not a political kingdom. Good ideas are not enough. We must have the mind of God, the sensitivity of God, the vision of God, the gift of God, in order to achieve our goals and fulfill our dreams. That does not come through training, it comes by faith, obedience to His commands, and abiding in His presence.Everything that comes into the life of a Christian is designed to...

It was the spring of 2001 during my second semester of seminary that I enrolled in a class titled Biblical Exposition of Prayer. I was very excited about the topic, since Dr. James Rosscup, who had recently completed a book on every prayer of the Bible, was teaching the class. One of the requirements was to pray every day, for one hour, journaling as well, for 16 straight weeks. The other students in the class were eager to pray as well. We had visions of becoming great prayer warriors like the Apostle Paul, E.M. Bounds, and George Mueller.
