In Stand Firm: Living in a Post-Christian Culture, Dr. John MacArthur drafts biblical battle plans for maintaining a life of Christian faithfulness. God has revealed what kind of people we are to be in a hostile world, and by his word and spirit, He supplies us with everything we need to persevere in holiness, humility, and love.

What do you live for? The world’s answer is to live for yourself. But the Bible directs us to a higher pursuit: the honor of God. Apart from this central priority, even many Christians are left aimless and unmotivated. But as we realize who God is in all His holy majesty, we delight in our ultimate purpose of bringing glory to His name. In this audiobook, Rev. Grant Castleberry presents a God-centered vision for life. After surveying Scripture’s teaching on the honor of God, he hones in on the shame of sin and the grace of Jesus Christ in delivering us from dishonor.

In Baptism: Answers to Common Questions, Dr. Guy M. Richard tackles the key questions people have about baptism: What does it mean? Is it necessary for salvation?

As he searches the Scriptures, Dr. Richard helps us think through what the Bible teaches about baptism and encourages us to deal graciously with our brothers and sisters in Christ even when we disagree.

In The Great Rescue, Dr. R.C. Sproul introduces the Bible’s message of salvation. Since God is holy and we are not, we stand condemned in His presence. We have no power to remove our sin or to escape His wrath. But by sheer grace, God has provided the rescue we need through the atoning sacrifice of His Son. Seeing that Jesus alone brings salvation, one question remains: Will you trust in Him?

The church reached a turning point in the 16th century. Worship had become a spectacle, the gospel was distorted, the sacraments were replaced by superstition, and ministers lived in immorality. To restore the church to the teachings of Christ, the Reformers cried out for a return to God’s authoritative word. In this classic treatise, John Calvin presents four areas of the church’s life and doctrine that must be carefully guarded and guided by scripture. This timeless call for biblical faithfulness beckons us today. How will we respond?

As Jesus was celebrating his final Passover meal, he made some bold statements. First, he took the bread and said, "This is my body." Then he took the cup, saying, "This is my blood." Next, he commanded the disciples to eat and drink in remembrance of him. What did Jesus mean? Do the bread and wine literally become his body and blood? What happens when Christians take the Lord’s Supper?

The Bible is under attack on all sides. Unbelievers denounce it as backward, narrow-minded, and intolerant, and even some professing Christians deny its truth to gain approval from the culture. With each assault, we hear echoes of the serpent’s question in the garden of Eden: “Did God really say?” Unfortunately, many believers don’t know how to answer these challenges and find their confidence in God’s Word shaken.

What sets the historic Christian faith apart from all other religions and worldviews? Nothing less than the good news of God’s saving grace in Jesus Christ. The Protestant Reformers boldly declared the marvelous message of the gospel: Salvation is by God’s grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, as revealed in Scripture alone, to the glory of God alone. Together, these “alone” statements are called the five solas of the Reformation. In this book, Dr. Gabe Fluhrer explains how the five solas give us the heartbeat of the gospel and the road map for the Christian life.

Worship isn’t just something we do — it’s the purpose of our existence. Every week, Christians come together to share a taste of heaven itself, where all of God’s redeemed people will exalt his holy name forever. But what’s really going on when we worship? And what’s worship supposed to look like in the life of the church?

Released each weekday, this podcast can help Christians, families, and churches enjoy the rich doctrines of Scripture and pursue our chief end to glorify and enjoy God forever.

Did Jesus Christ really rise from the grave? The credibility of the Christian faith rests on this claim, and Jesus’ own disciples laid down their lives to defend it. However, the resurrection of Christ is often dismissed as fantasy by those who assume that miracles are a scientific impossibility. Is faith in the empty tomb nothing more than blind belief In Alive: How the Resurrection of Christ Changes Everything, Dr. Gabe Fluhrer demonstrates that Jesus’ defeat of the grave is no mere myth - it is a historic reality supported by overwhelming evidence.
