"The Life of David" by Alexander Maclaren is a thorough and incisive analysis of one of biblical history's most memorable figures. Maclaren's study digs into the life, character, and spiritual journey of King David, ancient Israel's beloved and complex ruler. Maclaren's writing is distinguished by a genuine regard for the biblical story and a rigorous attention to detail. He takes readers on a riveting trip through David's life, from his humble beginnings as a shepherd to his rise as a warrior, poet, and, eventually, the acclaimed king of Israel. Maclaren presents profound spiritual and moral insights throughout the book, pulling lessons from David's accomplishments and disappointments. He emphasizes David's psalms, emphasizing their enduring spiritual value. The premise that David's life serves as a strong metaphor of God's grace, forgiveness, and the possibility of spiritual growth and restoration is central to Maclaren's narrative. He depicts David as a highly flawed yet genuinely contrite character whose unwavering faith in God defines his legacy.

The author praises Gratian’s zeal for instruction in the Faith, and speaks lowly of his own merits. Taught of God Himself, the Emperor stands in no need of human instruction; yet this his devoutness prepares the way to victory. The task appointed to the author is difficult: in the accomplishment whereof he will be guided not so much by reason and argument as by authority, especially that of the Nicene Council.

Biblical scholar Robert Wall and pastoral leader Anthony Robinson here join forces to bring the Acts of the Apostles forward to our time as a resource for congregational renewal and transformation.Featuring both careful exegetical study and exciting contemporary exposition, the fifteen chapters of Called to Be Church each first interpret the text of Acts as Scripture and then engage Acts for today's church. The book dives into many of the most vexing issues faced by the church then and now -- such issues as conflict resolution, pluralism and multiculturalism, sexuality, money, church and state, the role of the Holy Spirit, and more.Enhanced by study questions at the end of each chapter, Called to Be Church will lend itself especially well to small-group study within congregations. Pastors, lay readers, students, and ordinary believers alike will find the book helpful and inspiring.

Edited by David Platt, Daniel L. Akin, and Tony Merida, this new commentary series, projected to be 48 volumes, takes a Christ- centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, the authors have crafted chapters that explain and apply key passages in their assigned Bible books. Readers will learn to see Christ in all aspects of Scripture, and they will be encouraged by the devotional nature of each exposition. Projected contributors to the series include notable authors such as Russell D. Moore, Al Mohler, Matt Chandler, Francis Chan, Mark Dever, and others.
