Theology That Bites Back
This book was truly informative, and it will be really informative for you also, even if you were already persuaded of the basic thesis. That thesis is that the sons of God in Genesis 6 who intermarried with human women were celestial beings, and not the descendants of Seth, and that the offspring of these …
What an informative book this is. If you have been living in a normal part of the world, off in some backwater where people have been continuing to do ordinary people things, you may have wondered why our ruling elites have suddenly been afflicted with such strange spasms, jerky movements, and why, furthermore, their left …
I am happy to commend this book, and to do so enthusiastically. It has one great strength and, as is often the case with such things, it happens to be the same thing as its greatest weakness. The theology is really solid, the thinking clear, and the writing is lucid and straight to the point. …
So I was hearing really good rumbles about this book, The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, from a number of people I respect, and so I made a note to myself that I probably ought to do something about it. You know? I had only read one other book by Trueman ten years …

David Wenkel wrote a first rate book, entitled Shining Like the Sun, and I really enjoyed it, but I have no desire to drag him into a controversy that he was not actually participating in. And yet, at the same time, this book is most relevant to us during this time when churches are being …
This is a fantastic book, and let me tell you a little bit about some of sensations I had inside my bone box while reading it. I think I have only had a parallel experience one other time, that time being when I read Planet Narnia. Take a set of books that I have been …
I read different books in different ways. There is the physical copy route, where I own an actual three-dimensional book, and attack it at various places with my blue highlighter. There is also the Kindle route, where somebody in a cloud somewhere saves all my magic highlights. And then there is the audio route, where …
