Kivengere was a man of his age. Neither he nor the churches around him were perfect. But they had experienced God in an unusual way. I do not think his theology would meet the robust requirements of today. He was a child of the Keswick movementChrist-centred, pietistic, devotional. His preaching was anecdotal and winsome. It might not fit in easily with much of the evangelical scene as it is today. Our day may demand more accurate theological thinking although we cannot deny that Festo did indeed read deeply, extensively and constantly in very solid theological material. Yet for all that, Festo Kivengere has a great deal to teach us about personal love for Christ, unflagging belief in the power of the cross to save people and great endurance to the end.

Real Hope in the Midst of a Culture Gone Awry! Yes, we live in this kind of culture and world. However, it is clear in the Bible that the more we pursue the knowledge of God, as defined and described in Scripture, and the more we are devoted to him, the more he will work in us and through us during the perilous times in which we live. Therefore, in thinking about the extraordinary impact biblical truth can have on our society, this book focuses on three vitally important areas in the Bible: how God reveals his existence through nature and his Word, how he discloses his character through his attributes and promises, and how he calls his people to seek the knowledge of himself through the fear of the Lord and the bearing of his image. Thus, the purpose of this book is to lead believers into a deeper understanding of what God is like, a deeper understanding of what he has promised to those who know him, and a deeper understanding of the unshakable hope and strong encouragement we have in God's Word as we live in a confused and deteriorating culture. Rather than simply decrying the devastating changes in our nation and world, this book clearly proclaims the hope that is ours in the very nature and character of God himself, the identity and security believers have in Christ, and the biblical guidance we need in order to be salt and light in our generation. A God-centered, truth-loving, Christ-exalting approach to life changes everything!

What is one to make of a man described as 'strangely compounded, peculiarly constituted, and oddly framed'? It conjures up in the mind an image of Stevenson's Mr. Hyde, or Shelley's Frankenstein, or Hugo's Quasimodo. But such is J. C. Ryle's (1816-1900) description of Augustus Montague Toplady (1740-1778), author of what has been called the best-loved English hymn. One wonders why someone would bother writing a biography -- or reading one -- about a strange, peculiar, odd person. Nevertheless, Ryle declared that no account of Christianity in England in the 18th century would be complete without featuring the remarkable Toplady. Bond says that the purpose of the book is to 'pull back the shroud that has covered Toplady, to unmask the caricature that has shaped his memory as merely a raw-boned and harsh controversialist'. The reader is shown what we can learn from Toplady for today.

Eminently qualified to write this groundbreaking book, Philip King is known as both an archaeological and biblical authority. Defining biblical archaeology as the "process of correlating archaeological evidence with the biblical record," he sees the function of this discipline as the illumination of the events recorded in the Bible in order to clarify the text. In Amos, Hosea, and Micah, King offers an enlightening and elegant commentary on the eight-century prophets from an archaeological perspective.

More than at any time in the past, today's evangelicals struggle to understand what the essence of the Christian faith really is. The basic teachings of Jesus Christ have been lost in many pulpits and have been replaced with feel good doctrines foreign to God's Word. Christians who want to defend their faith must first have a basic understanding of what it is and how to support it with Scriptural proofs. This book assembles the fundamentals of the Christian religion in an easy-to-read, question-and-answer format. Whether you are continuing your pursuit of biblical knowledge or just beginning, this little instructional book will go a long way toward achieving your goal.
