"Make room on the shelf for this penetrating book by Carson. . . . Carson engages with a stunning range of writers and texts. (Five Stars)." more reviews
Reviews in Religion & Theology
on God's Ambassadors
"Brooks Holifield has undertaken the significant task of chronicling the story of America's clergy. He does so with grace and eloquence, making God's Ambassadors must reading for any one, clergy or scholar, interested in the place of Christian ministry, Protestant or Catholic, in American life. A book that is not just readable, interesting, challenging, but that is also a book to which clergy and scholars should give close attention. (Starred Review)." more reviews
Expository Times
on Not Ashamed of the Gospel
"I would recommend this to all preachers as brilliantly applied homiletics. . . . It presents the gospel challenges of Romans with force and brilliance." more reviews
