Is Our Gospel The Gospel
$25.61
Pastor-first, theologian-second Dr. Prince Parker is more plainspoken than any scholar has any right to be-what he writes, readers can actually comprehend! In Is OUR Gospel THE Gospel?, he follows the same teaching method he does with his students-easy-to-understand concepts followed by increasingly complex ideas that challenge and expand understanding-and the very same syntactical style he unashamedly proclaims in his Author’s Notes: In the same fashion, the vocabulary…swings between humorously colloquial Californian American English and polysyllabic academia.
In this extraordinarily comprehensive text, the author examines three fundamental questions every Christian must answer with utmost clarity and understanding:
The person of Christ-who is he?
The Word of God and the doctrine of salvation-exactly how can we be saved?
How should we present this incalculably valuable message to the world?
To find answers, Dr. Parker shares stimulating and thought-provoking insights into biblical stories-from all corners of the Word-in minute detail, all the while encouraging believers to pay attention in order to more fully understand what Scripture has to say.
As friendly and readable as his voice may be, Dr. Parker is unflinching in his presentation of Scriptural truth: I know there are some who profess to have an exact theology of evangelism but are doing very little to actually win sinners for Christ…The glories of the Savior are hidden even from His servants because those preaching have not given the deserved attention to the gospel they are announcing…The truth to impart life has been hidden behind the smokescreen of human inventions.
Is OUR Gospel THE Gospel? is an intelligent theological discourse equally suitable for personal edification or small or large group study-not only educational, but fun to read. How many scholarly texts can make such a claim?

Person Of Interest
$24.99Dateline featured cold-case detective and best-selling author J. Warner Wallace investigates Jesus, the most significant person in history, like one of his “missing body, cold-cases,” demonstrating why Jesus still matters today, even in a world that is skeptical of the Bible.
Detective J. Warner Wallace listened to a pastor talk about Jesus and wondered why anyone would think Jesus was a person of interest.
Wallace was skeptical of the Bible, but he’d investigated several “no-body, missing person” cases in which there was no crime scene, no physical evidence, and no victim’s body. He successfully identified and convicted the killers in these cases, even without evidence from the scene.
Could the historical life and actions of Jesus be investigated in the same way? Could the truth about Jesus be uncovered even without a body or a crime scene? In Person of Interest, Wallace describes his own personal investigative journey from atheism to Christianity, as he employs a unique investigative strategy to confirm the historicity and deity of Jesus–without relying on the New Testament manuscripts.
Imagining a scenario in which every New Testament document has been destroyed, Wallace carefully sifts through the evidence from history alone to reconstruct the identity of Jesus as the world’s most important person of interest.
Person of Interest will:
*Invite readers into the life of a cold-case detective as he uncovers the truth about Jesus, using the same approach he also employs to solve a real murder case*Teach readers how to become good detectives, using an innovative and unique “‘fuse’ and ‘fallout'” investigative strategy they can also use to examine other claims of history
*Show how Jesus changed the world and why He still matters today
*Help readers to explore common objections to Christianity
Creative, compelling, and unique in its approach, Person of Interest will strengthen the faith of believers, while engaging those who are skeptical and distrusting of the New Testament.
