The PCA formed under the banner “the continuing church,” because the desire was to have a church committed unapologetically and without the least hesitation to the truth of God revealed in his Word and as defined by our Westminster Standards. If there is one thing the founders of the PCA intentionally desired in seeking to glorify our triune God, it was and has been that the Scriptures will maintain the high place in our practice that they hold in our doctrinal standards.

For the past 17 years, Equip to Disciple, formerly Equip for Ministry, has attempted to keep you up to date regarding the training and resources ministryof Christian Education and Publications. We have included information related toCEP’s ministry throughout the church such as conference training and resources.We have attempted to bring to you some of the books that we have felt are mostimportant especially for the leader’s awareness.

This is a good book and well worth discussing and implementing where appropriate. This book will adjust our attitudes about evangelicalism, and will ultimately lead us along a time tested path toward a brighter future.

While this book will deal with some extremely important theology, it does so in a way that helps the reader to understand that what it is saying really helps one focus on how Christians should live in the world from day to day. Believing that the Bible message is about the Kingdom of God, the one kingdom of God vs. a  two kingdom concept, it behooves us to be familiar with this topic. 

If Calvinism represents God’s truth, it needs to be presented in as winsome, loving, and clear manner that our audience will also come to love and appreciate it. This is worth the read; especially because it could significantly enhance our effectiveness and winsomeness when presenting our Calvinistic faith to others.

Whether you are a preacher, teacher, growing Christian, you will appreciate this book.  Read it personally for your own benefit, use it topically for teaching and preaching, share it with a friend who may have questions about the Bible and its foundational role in the Christian faith. 

Turning to God deals with conversion. The content of the book centers around the reality that when a person is converted to Christ, there is not simply one part of his or her life that is converted.  Conversion, as we have taught, impacts every area of life, though that is not often understood or highlighted as it should be.  As a result we fail to see the results in people’s lives that we should.

The author of this book takes the basic topics of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and traces how they impact us today, but he also sounds the challenge to take the truth of yesterday, build upon it today, and prepare for tomorrow. He clearly expresses what the Reformation was all about.

The author deals with the formulation and development of 32 major doctrines of the Christian faith. Knowing we must teach our people good sound doctrine is to help them understand how and why this or that is a “major” doctrine vitally important to the Christian faith, as well as our own lives.  This is really the heart of the discipleship assigned to the church.

This book is important today because there is confusion, disagreement, and contradictions within the evangelical world on the Orthodox view of inerrancy.  It contains three parts.  part one deals with the History of the Inerrancy Controversy; part two deals with the Recent Challenges to Inerrancy; part three focuses on the Reexamination of Inerrancy.
