Book Synopsis The true drama of how faith motivated America's Founding Fathers, from the Declaration of Independence to the signing of Britain's peace treaty. From the author of Forged in Faith comes the remarkable untold history of how the faith of our fathers critically influenced the outcome of the American Revolution and the birth of the United States of America. "A page-turner that reads like a novel " Here, in the fascinating follow-up to his popular work Forged in Faith, award-winning historian Rod Gragg reveals how the American Revolution was fired and fueled by America's founding faith--the Judeo-Christian worldview. Based on meticulous research and propelled by a fast-paced style, By the Hand of Providence uncovers the extraordinary, almost-forgotten history of the faith-based Revolution that secured American liberty and nationhood. From the American people's first resistance to attacks on their God-given or "inalienable" rights, through the dramatic battlefield events of the Revolution and General George Washington's pivotal faith-based leadership, to the climactic surrender of Cornwallis's British army at Yorktown, By the Hand of Providence exposes the long-overlooked but critical element that kept alive the American War for Independence and motivated the ultimate victory that established the United States of America. In the words of George Washington: "The Hand of Providence has been so conspicuous in all this, that he must be worse than an infidel that lacks faith. . . ." Graced by a fast-paced narrative and based on the extensive research Gragg has so notably applied to other events in American history, By the Hand of Providence is an insightful and fascinating account of the faith-based Revolution that secured American independence and nationhood. Review Quotes "By the Hand of Providence skillfully examines the faith-based core beliefs of the revolutionaries--and convincingly refutes the contention that George Washington was an uncommitted Christian or a deist."--historian Edward G. Longacre, author of Cavalry of the Heartland and Worthy Opponents "Fascinating. . . . Gragg shows the decisive importance that Americans of the 1770s and '80s attributed to the providential intervention of God in the momentous events of the Revolution."--Dr. Steven Woodworth, author of This Great Struggle: America's Civil War and While God Is Marching On: "Rod Gragg has done it again! A page-turner that reads like a novel! I found myself not only wanting to devour the next page, but praying for our nation, 'O Lord, do it again.'"--Dr. Harry Reeder III, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama, and author of About the Author A former journalist, historian Rod Gragg is director of the Center for Military and Veterans Studies at Coastal Carolina University, where he also serves as an adjunct professor of history.

About the Book Like a soldier awake, alert, ready for action as he responds to the STAND TO call knowing every moment is critical and his engagement is a necessity, so every man must know that he too is being counted on to courageously follow God's specifically designed purpose and plan for his life. Men are hardwired for action, and we learn best by doing. STAND TO invites men to accept personal challenges and live intentional, creed-driven lives in the presence of God (Coram-Deo), under His authority, and for His glory! Too often, silence, apathy, hesitation, or withdrawal from worthy engagements cause a man's true identity and strength to be suppressed. STAND TO flips this narrative! STAND TO shares from God's Word our striking resemblance to our Warrior King who has also experienced intense suffering from missional living. This King offers backbone-stiffening courage in the face of fear, strength without compromise, and the model for sacrificial living despite the cost. Knowing our King goes before us in the battles and challenges enables us to confront and overcome them as well. Each chapter provides men specific 'courage challenges' to DO. This is critical! Soldiers in battle are trained and equipped to courageously engage in the good conflict and move towards the action. Such present and engaged men are needed in their relationships and their significant calling from God. In the words of Thomas Jefferson, "Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you!" STAND TO IS GOING TO LIGHT YOUR HAIR ON FIRE! This incredibly interesting and readable book is destined to reach a whole new generation of men who want their lives to count and make a difference. It's that good! --PATRICK MORLEY, PhD, Founder, Man in the Mirror For years, Shawn has been training boys to be men, and this book proves he's the kind of guide we need right now. --JOHN STONESTREET, President of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview and host of Breakpoint Men who would "stand up for Christ" and "stand firm in Christ" would benefit from being saturated in Dr. Brower's volume STAND TO - a weighty yet engaging exposition of Christ-exhalting Biblical masculinity. Enjoy and profit! --HARRY L. REEDER III, Sr. Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church It's time men of God need to stand up not down. Shawn Brower points to God's standard of masculinity and invites men to embrace who God designed us to be. --RICK BURGESS, Co Host of the Rick and Bubba Show and Director of TheManChurch.com This book helps men, young and old, to courageously pursue, accept, and act on God's masculine design, to image Jesus...A must read for every man. --MITCH TEMPLE, Executive Director / CoFounder - The Fatherhood Commission Stand To was a hallmark of hope and heaven-sent pushing and probing. I am drawing upon its resources multiple times in a week and sometimes in a day. --JOSEPH V. NOVENSON, Pastor of Sr. Adults, Lookout Mountain Presbyterian Church
About the Book From the award-winning writer of Eveningland and The Typist, Michael Knight, At Briarwood School for Girls is an incisive, witty, beautifully-written novel set at a boarding school in the Virginia countryside Book Synopsis From the award-winning writer of Eveningland and The Typist, Michael Knight, At Briarwood School for Girls is an incisive, witty, beautifully-written novel set at a boarding school in the Virginia countryside It's 1994 and Lenore Littlefield is a junior at Briarwood School for Girls. She plays basketball. She hates her roommate. History is her favorite subject. She has told no one that she's pregnant. Everything, in other words, is under control. Meanwhile, Disney has announced plans to build a new theme park just up the road, a "Technicolor simulacrum of American History" right in the middle of one of the most history-rich regions of the country. If successful, the development will forever alter the character of Prince William County, VA, and have unforeseeable consequences for the school. When the threat of the theme park begins to intrude on the lives of the faculty and students at Briarwood, secrets will be revealed and unexpected alliances will form. Lenore must decide whom she can trust--will it be a middle-aged history teacher struggling to find purpose in his humdrum life? A lonely basketball coach tasked with directing the school play? A reclusive playwright still grappling with her own Briarwood legacy? Or a teenage ghost equally adept at communicating with the living via telephone or Ouija board? Following a cast of memorable characters as they reckon with questions about fate, history, and the possibility of happiness, At Briarwood School for Girls is a stunning and inventive new work from a master storyteller. Review Quotes Praise for At Briarwood School for Girls "Knight's characters are memorable and nuanced--a credit to his sharp, skillful writing. This is a stunning novel with a hint of the supernatural that's sure to delight readers."--Publishers Weekly "A deft, charming Southern coming-of-age novel... A quick-paced, sharp, cleverly designed book by a talented writer."--Kirkus Reviews "Like a package of sweets sent from home, At Briarwood School for Girls is replete with the familiar, beloved, humorous elements of a boarding school book--old trees and legacies, a headmistress, a ghost, and girls out of uniform--and surprise at what real life offers up. I read the book in an evening--so irresistible and satisfying was it, I kept turning the pages."--Christine Schutt Praise for Eveningland "The spirit of Eudora Welty broods over these adroitly crafted stories set in and around coastal Alabama, evoking a world coiled tight as a conch shell."--O Magazine "Impressive... 'Water and Oil' is deft and wonderful, wholly original, and 'Smash and Grab' is sharp and fresh with an ending like something out of O. Henry or Thomas McGuane."--New York Times Book Review "Novelistic...compressed and supple, with a Cheever-esque sensitivity to texture and light."--Garden and Gun About the Author MICHAEL KNIGHT is the author of the novels The Typist and Divining Rod; the short story collections Eveningland, Goodnight Nobody and Dogfight and Other Stories; and the novella The Holiday Season. He teaches creative writing at the University of Tennessee and lives in Knoxville with his family.
About the Book "Informative and encouraging, this brief book serves as a primer and quick reference tool regarding Presbyterian baptism for pastors, elders, prospective new church members, parents, and family members of children"-- Book Synopsis Many are aware of the debate about infant baptism without knowing the biblical and theological case for it. In this pastoral introduction to the topic, Jason Helopoulos argues from Scripture for infant baptism in the context of the covenant God enters into with his people and the great blessings that flow from it. The practice of infant baptism benefits the children themselves, their parents, and the congregation as a whole. As do all books in the Blessings of the Faith series, this short volume concludes with answers to frequently asked and pertinent questions on the topic. Informative and encouraging, this brief book will serve as a helpful primer and quick reference tool regarding Presbyterian baptism for pastors, elders, prospective new church members, parents, and family members of children. Review Quotes Discussions of baptism can so easily raise the temperature in the church and draw lines among Christians. If only for that reason, we may be grateful to Jason Helopoulos, who has gifted the church with a clear, accessible, irenic, and practical treatment of the Bible's teaching on baptism. Whether you have been thinking about these questions for a long time or for the first time, Baptism will inform your mind and stir your heart as Helopoulos shows you the blessing that God intends for baptism to be.--Guy Prentiss Waters, James M. Baird Jr. Professor of New Testament, Reformed Theological Seminary In this Scripturally-based, theologically-sound, and practically-helpful book, Jason Helopoulos has provided a concise yet robust resource for anyone wanting to know more about the truth and beauty of covenant baptism. As he rightly states in the first chapter, the key to understanding and embracing baptism is knowing the kindness of our covenant-making God. In other words, God is so incredibly gracious that he lavishes amazing gifts to his people and their children. Baptism is one of those gifts. I will be rmending and using this book frequently--Julius J. Kim, President, The Gospel Coalition Jason Helopolous, in this highly readable volume, has given us the theological foundation as to why the sign and seal of the New Covenant -- Baptism - is to be placed upon believers and their Covenant children affirming their faith in Christ who fulfills His promises including, "I will be a God to you and to and to your children after you..." But, an additional blessing in this volume is the consequential foundation for parenting based upon the promises of God with the anticipation of His Covenant blessings in and through families by God's sovereign Grace--Harry L. Reeder III, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham This is a truly remarkable page-turning book peppered with personal illustrations that persuasively and winsomely presents a robust defense of the baptism of infants of believers. Written from the overflow of a pastor and father with a big heart for children and the church, it excels at being biblically enlightening, doctrinally sound, experientially balanced, and practically helpful. The QandA section is superlative--so succinct, so wise, so 'spot on.' One does not have to agree with every detail Jason Helopoulos propounds to realize that this book has immense potential to move the church community forward in grasping the beauty of baptism without either overestimating or underestimating it. Highly rmended!--Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary This is an immensely helpful study of God's Word on such an important topic. The QandA at the end alone is worth the read. If you want to understand the Reformed understanding of baptism, look no further.--Michael Horton, J. Gresham Machen Professor of Systematic Theology and Apologetics, Westminster Seminary California
About the Book "Informative, encouraging, and practical, this short book serves as a helpful primer on expositional preaching and its place in the life of a Christian and the worship of the church"-- Book Synopsis Expositional preaching is highly regarded in Reformed churches--but do you sometimes wonder why? Isn't it more efficient to study God's Word in our own quiet times? Isn't it more fun to discuss Scripture in a small group? As a means of grace, preaching has a unique sin-killing, life-giving power that brings great blessing into our lives. Pastor David Strain establishes the basic biblical and theological foundations of preaching, highlights historical examples, and answers questions, fears, and objections about expositional preaching in a Reformed church. Informative and encouraging, this short book serves as a helpful primer for pastors, study groups, and laypeople on expositional preaching and its place in the life of a Christian and the worship of the church. Review Quotes David Strain has given us a thoughtful, engaging, stimulating primer on the importance of hearing God's word. As a seasoned pastor, Strain understands how vital it is for church members to hear God's word rightly and have it shape how they think and live. I am convinced that the health of the church in these rapidly changing and unsettling times, depends on it taking to heart the principles and convictions Strain so plainly and passionately sets out in this little gem. A 'must read' for church members and pastors alike.--Ian Hamilton, Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary David Strain has given us his against-the-stream argument for expositional preaching. He's heard all the gripes and objections to it (and deftly handles them in his own Q and A). His case is evenly balanced yet with an edge that cuts in all the right places. Is it too much to hope that elders and deacons will digest it--as well as all personal-devotion, small-group, online-preaching addicts? How refreshing to read a work that agrees with the orneriness of God in insisting on the supremacy of preaching in the local church.--Dale Ralph Davis, Minister in Residence, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina In a day and age when the Word of God must compete with so many things that distract and vie for our hearts, David Strain opens the pages of the Bible to show the church why hearing the Bible preached is so vital to the Christian life. If you struggle to benefit from preaching, then this little book is the perfect tonic to invigorate your appreciation for the Word of God. Pick up this little book to see why 'the foolishness of preaching' contains Christ's words of wisdom, grace, and eternal life.--J. V. Fesko, Harriett Barbour Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson There are several good books on how to prepare and deliver sermons, but there are other pressing questions that we must answer. Why do expositional preaching? Why regard preaching the Word as the center of the church's worship, edification, and evangelism? How can we listen to expositional preaching to benefit the most from it? David Strain responds to these questions (and more) with brief, biblical, and heart-warming answers. This is an excellent book for pastors, seminary students, and the people who hear them preach--Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Undoubtedly, books written "with wisdom from above" on preaching are a blessing. Now, David Strain, in God's providence has given us a book written "with wisdom from above" on - "Hearing the Word" preached. This book is Biblical, readable and engaging. Tolle Lege!--Harry L. Reeder III, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham

About the Book The first full scholarly account of the theological and social forces that brought about the creation of the Presbyterian Church in America, using primary archival, newspaper, and magazine material. Book Synopsis The Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) is the largest conservative, evangelical Presbyterian denomination in North America. And yet ministers, elders, and laypeople know only the barest facts concerning the denomination's founding. For a Continuing Church is a fully researched, scholarly yet accessible account of the theological and social forces that brought about the PCA. Drawing on little used archival sources, as well as Presbyterian newspapers and magazines, Lucas charts the formation of conservative dissent in response to the young progressive leadership that emerged in the Presbyterian Church in the United States (PCUS) in the 1920s and 1930s. Their vision was to purify the PCUS from these progressive theological elements and return it to its spiritual heartland: evangelism and missions. Only as the church declared the gospel with confidence in the inspired Scriptures would America know social transformation. Forty years after its founding, the PCA has nearly 400,000 members and is still growing in the United States and internationally. Review Quotes As God did a glorious work in the lives of His imperfect but beloved covenant people He would at times tell them to pile up some stones in order to remember what He had done and to teach the coming generations. Sean Lucas has piled up some stones from the gracious work of God's providence in establishing the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) to remember for His glory and for the coming generations to be both encouraged and equipped for a future that by His grace will be marked with an imperfect yet loving obedience.--Harry L. Reeder III Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, AL Don't let the title fool you. This is about far more than the PCA. This book is nothing less than a history of Presbyterianism in the twentieth century, with all its theological wrangling, all its political maneuvering, all its failings and all its faithfulness. This is certainly a story worth telling, and Sean tells it very well.--Kevin DeYoung, Senior Pastor, University Reformed Church, East Lansing, Michigan This is a story that had to be told, and Sean Lucas has told it with the skill and care of a historian and the warmth and concern of a pastor. Dr. Lucas is thorough, honest, fair, and accurate in unfolding the history of a complex movement that includes mixed motives, different hopes, complicated relationships, and inner controversies. In spite of its failures (the purest churches under heaven are subject both to mixture and error), the history of the Presbyterian Church in America is a good story, indeed a wonderful story, of God's grace and blessing on a group of Southern Presbyterians who were committed, despite the cost, to establishing and maintaining a continuing church, true to the Bible, faithful to Reformed theology, and obedient to the Great Commission. If you want to understand the Presbyterian Church in America, you must read this book.--David B. Calhoun, Professor Emeritus of Church History, Covenant Theological Seminary With first-rate scholarship, engaging style, and a pastor's insights Sean Lucas provides the most insightful history of the Presbyterian Church in America thus far. His proof that our forefathers intended for the PCA to be a new mainline denomination confirms that the growth pains so far have been worth it and inspires us to renew their vision to be a servant-leader denomination. According to Lucas's research, our mandate as a denomination is to make sure that our service to the gospel not be done in a corner. My friend has once again been used of the Lord to refresh my commitment to the Scriptures, the Reformed Faith, and the Great Commission!--George Robertson, Senior Pastor, The First Presbyterian Church, Augusta, Georgia I've always thought of my friend and former colleague, Sean Lucas, as a walking encyclopedia. Every page of this volume proves me right. Meticulously researched, this history of the founding of the Presbyterian Church in America will instantly be the definitive account of a significant movement in the history of American Presbyterianism. The detail is comprehensive, the writing is wonderfully engaging--as though the drama were being played out before our very eyes, and the sins of the past are neither downplayed nor exaggerated. As a church historian and pastor in the Presbyterian Church in America, I've waited a long time for this history. I was not disappointed. There were surprises, there were aspects of the story that filled in gaps in my own understanding, and there was a sense of encouragement as I turned the last page. It does seem that we can count ourselves as one example of an evangelical Presbyterian church that God has enabled to remain true to the Scriptures, the
About the Book "The apostle Paul is sometimes accused of being more cerebral than practical-but the letters 2 Timothy and Titus brim with applications of God's grace for ministry and daily life"-- Book Synopsis The apostle Paul is known for his doctrinally rich writing, but we should not overlook his concern for the practical. In his letters to Timothy and Titus--faithful younger men who had followed him into ministry--Paul has much to teach every one of us about godly leadership, sound teaching, and holy living. In this warm and pastoral commentary, Daniel Doriani and Richard Phillips show how the letters brim with the message of God's grace as it is practically applied, challenging us to embrace Paul's priorities and to remain faithful in suffering. They explore Paul's treatment of important doctrines such as election, predestination, assurance of salvation, and more. And they point us to Christ, who empowers us by his grace as we labor for his sake. Review Quotes Godly living and faithful leadership require tremendous grace in this corrupt world. How is it possible? Doriani and Phillips give us solid expositions of the divinely inspired directions in Paul's second epistle to Timothy and his epistle to Titus. Read and grow, and use your gifts and prayers to promote godly leadership."--Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary In light of my absolute love for the Pastoral Epistles in general and 2 Timothy and Titus in particular, I was thrilled to hear that Dan Doriani and Rick Phillips have provided us with a commentary. Now, having reviewed it, I am astounded at its insights, clarity, and readability. Simply put, this volume is an invaluable research tool and, at the same time, a page-turner. Enjoy!"--Harry Reeder, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, AL Paul's letters to his pastoral apprentices and colleagues, Timothy and Titus, abound in wise, concrete counsel, grounded in the gospel of Christ. Who is better equipped to open up these pastoral messages than Doriani and Phillips, who are both seasoned pastors and scholars of Scripture? These expositions provide rich resources for preaching and teaching the Word, while they boldly and warmly challenge us to embrace the grace that yields godly living to God's glory."--Dennis E. Johnson, Professor Emeritus of Practical Theology, Westminster Seminary California Some Bible commentaries major in scholarship and minor in application; others major in application and minor in scholarship. This volume does neither. Instead, as the work of two experienced and esteemed pastor-scholars, 2 Timothy and Titus provides sound and in-depth treatment of the biblical text on the one hand, and a pathway to living out the text on the other. Whether for sermon preparation, group discussion, personal Bible study, or all three, Dan and Rick have done a remarkable job of providing a resource to help believers watch our lives and doctrine closely, that we might please the Lord and love our neighbors well--Scott Sauls, Pastor, Christ Presbyterian Church, Nashville; author, Jesus Outside the Lines and A Gentle Answer Unobtrusive scholarship and pastoral passion are the earmarks of this volume in the Reformed Expository Commentary. It is fitting that the exposition of two of the Pastoral Epistles is by two experienced pastors. It is evident that both Doriani and Phillips are writing from experience and not just theory. The textual comments are clear and on point. The theology is edifying. The applications and illustrations are warm, pointed, and personal. Pastors, particularly, will find the volume valuable both for their own personal benefit and encouragement and for insight in how to preach the Pastoral Epistles effectively to their flocks--Michael Barrett, Vice President for Academic Affairs, Academic Dean, Professor of Old Testament, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary What a feast of good things the respective congregations of Doriani and Phillips listen to each week! These sermons on two of the Pastoral Epistles are superb examples of lectio continua expository preaching that informs the mind and ignites the affections. These two epistles cover some sensitive territory--pastoral correction, womanhood, purity, eldership, essence of manliness, to name just a few. These issues are handled with grace and fortitude. As seasoned preachers, Doriani and Phillips deftly manage to convince, correct, and challenge us all at once. Marvelously done."--Derek W. H. Thomas, Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, SC; Teaching Fellow, Ligonier Ministries; Chancellor's Professor, Reformed Theological Seminary

Warmly commended for those serious about growing in grace." --Tony Lane, London School of Theology "As a seasoned pastor called of God to shepherd the people of God, my friend, Tom, wisely and winsomely lays out how we as sheep can grow to be more like and more in love with Jesus, the Lamb of God! Every powerful principle on every page will draw your heart irresistibly to our Great Shepherd." --Perry Bowers, Focused Living Ministries, Columbia, South Carolina "Sanctification is a deeply theological and biblically accurate explanation of the ongoing ministry of Christ and the Spirit in reshaping and transforming those in Christ.

About the Book In Defense of the Eschaton is an anthology of William D. Dennison's essays on the Reformed apologetics of Cornelius Van Til. Written over the course of Dennison's many years of study, the chapters in this volume investigate Van Til's theory of knowledge, revelation, common grace, antithesis, Christian education, and the history of ideas, as well as examine key Scriptures to identify the redemptive-historical structure of a biblical apologetic method. Book Synopsis In Defense of the Eschaton is an anthology of William D. Dennison's essays on the Reformed apologetics of Cornelius Van Til. Written over the course of Dennison's many years of study, the chapters in this volume investigate Van Til's theory of knowledge, revelation, common grace, antithesis, Christian education, and the history of ideas, as well as examine key Scriptures to identify the redemptive-historical structure of a biblical apologetic method. In the end, Dennison finds that Reformed apologetics must take eschatology seriously. According to the New Testament, the believer has been transferred by faith in Christ into the final stage of history. As a citizen of heaven, the Christian apologist must defend the eschaton of the age to come against the satanic attacks of this present world. For the cover: ""This marvelous collection of apologetic essays will encourage faith in Christ even as it sharpens the mind."" --Douglas A. Sweeney, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School ""Dennison's treatment is by turn powerful, convicting, and cumulatively overwhelming in its analysis."" --Derek W. H. Thomas, Reformed Theological Seminary, Atlanta ""For anyone interested in faithfully and consistently bringing the intellectual challenge of the Gospel to our day, this book is for you."" --Stephen J. Wellum, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary ""This stimulating collection of essays presents a robust explanation and defense of Van Til's apologetic for the twenty-first century."" --Joel R. Beeke, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary ""Nobody can fully appreciate the discussion of presuppositional apologetics over the last century without taking Dennison's approach into account."" --John M. Frame, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando ""Bill advances the discussion on all fronts, deftly synthesizing apologetics and eschatology more ably than any other practitioner I know."" --Alan D. Strange, Mid-America Reformed Seminary For inside of book: ""The influence of Geerhardus Vos and Cornelius Van Til stands like a colossus in the story of the development of reformed theology in the 20th century. For me their contribution was defining. They figured hugely in my own education at seminary and beyond into a lifetime of ministry. Dr. Dennison understands their significance and his encyclopedic knowledge of his subject makes him a sure guide to their thought and its importance for the world and the church."" --Dr. Liam Goligher, Senior Minister, Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania ""Undoubtedly In Defense of the Eschaton is an invaluable compilation of Dr. Dennison's Biblically faithful and insightful efforts in defense of the faith. With every expectation of our Lord's blessing I commend to the reader the work of Dr. Dennison which is produced with scholarly excellence, theological integrity and highlights topics that will no doubt advance Biblical theology united with presuppositional apologetics."" --Harry L. Reeder, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama ""Cornelius Van Til has suffered the misfortune of either being dismissed or slavishly idolized. It is the merit of Dennison's work that although Van Til is definitely his teacher, he is guilty of neither but in a clear and accessible manner illumines the profound issues of revelation, common grace, antithesis and Christian thinking that dominated discussions in the Christian Reformed and Presbyterian world of the 20th century. One need not agree with him (or Van Til) on every point to appreciate the significant historical/systematic service Dennison has provided in clarifying the Vos/Van Til nexus for a generation inclined to forget its own roots. This volume is a valuable contribution to making a fair and honest conversation possible which would be a refreshing development."" --John Bolt, Professor of Systematic Theology, Calvin Theological Seminary ""Geerhardus Vos and Cornelius Van Til were among the most significant Reformed t
