What world missions ministry would arise if you only had the Bible? Answer: It would start and end with the local church. A focus on the local church is biblical, practical, and effective. It aligns with the New Testament. Local churches everywhere display God's wisdom and the glory of Christ in the gospel. You’ll see it from the view of Christ, the Great Commission, first-century Christians, Paul, and the New Testament canon itself. Once you see it, you can’t un-see it! This book walks through these steps: A.

Does God invite women to fully participate in all the assemblies of God? Among churches of Christ, the voices of women are typically silent and excluded from visible leadership in assemblies gathered for prayer and praise. In this book, John Mark Hicks tells the story of his own journey to understand how women have served God throughout the unfolding drama of Scripture. John Mark describes his movement from the exclusion of the voices of women and their leadership in the assembly to a limited inclusion, and finally to the full inclusion of those voices and their leadership. Along the way, ...

"On True and False Religion" is perhaps Ulrich Zwingli's most well-known work. Published in 1525, a few years after Melanchthon's influential "Locis" and a decade before Calvin's renowned "Institutes," this work takes its place in the context of the Reformation in its embryonic stage, where the need to deeply understand the central doctrines of Christianity was on the rise. In exploring this work, we find a deep dive into the essence of beliefs and teachings that would define the Protestant movement. With its publication, Zwingli offers us a glimpse into Reformed theology in its genesis, ...

This edition of *Commentary on the Pauline Epistles* gathers essential reflections from Philipp Melanchthon, one of the leading Reformers of the Church. The book offers a detailed analysis of the Epistle to the Colossians, an interpretation of the First Epistle to Timothy, and a discussion of the first two chapters of the Second Epistle, along with an argument on the Epistle to the Philippians. Preserving Melanchthon's legacy, this work showcases his enduring influence on Christian theology and his lasting impact on shaping religious thought.

For nearly 2000 years, virtually every Christian woman wore a headcovering during worship. Today, the practice has nearly disappeared. What happened? Dale Partridge walks Christians verse by verse through 1 Corinthians 11: 2-16 to help them understand the doctrine of headcoverings and how these biblical symbols visually preserve God’s design for men and women. But more than that, he demonstrates that when these visual symbols are eliminated from the church, society's definitions of men and women are forgotten.

In a world where the church's relevance is often questioned, Angie Ward offers a compelling blueprint for a unified ecclesial future in Beyond Church and Parachurch. Beyond Church and Parachurch is not just a historical and theological exploration; it's a roadmap for rethinking the very essence of Christian ministry.

Much-Afraid had been in the service of the Chief Shepherd, whose great flocks were pastured down in the Valley of Humiliation. She lived with her friends and fellow workers Mercy and Peace in a tranquil little white cottage in the village of Much-Trembling. She loved her work and desired intensely to please the Chief Shepherd, but happy as she was in most ways, she was conscious of several things which hindered her in her work and caused her much secret distress and shame.

What if everything you thought you knew about the early Church was only the surface of a much deeper story—one marked by blood, courage, controversy, and divine encounters? From the fiery descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost to the thunderclap of Martin Luther's 95 Theses on the Wittenberg door, Introduction to Church History pulls back the curtain on nearly 1,500 years of rich, raw, and revolutionary Christian history. But this isn’t just a textbook—it’s a journey into the soul of the global Church. For many believers, the past feels like a dusty archive—distant, irrelevant, ...

What if everything you believe about God, salvation, heaven, hell, sin, and Scripture was built on assumptions—and you didn’t even know it? The truth is, millions of Christians live out their faith with a fragmented understanding of the Bible. But God never meant for His Word to be confusing or compartmentalized. You were created to know truth deeply, believe rightly, and live boldly. *Systematic Theology* is the key that unlocks clarity in the chaos. Whether you're a pastor, seminary student, Bible teacher, or curious believer, chances are you've wrestled with complex questions: What ...

John Mark Hicks reviews the recent book by Michael Shank entitled "Muscle and a Shovel." While John Mark appreciates various dimensions of the book, he points out some serious flaws in the work.

Why do three Gospels tell the same story—yet speak with such distinct voices? For centuries, scholars, pastors, and Bible readers alike have wrestled with the mystery of the Synoptic Gospels. How can Matthew, Mark, and Luke echo each other so closely and yet diverge so profoundly in theology, style, and emphasis? This book confronts that enigma with academic rigor and spiritual depth—offering a guide not just to understanding the Gospels, but to seeing the life of Jesus through three inspired lenses. Behind the familiar verses lies a complex literary and theological tapestry. In The ...

Many Christians today do not care about attending a Biblical church or finding the true church that Jesus founded because they have a wrong conception of what a church is, and they believe that the local assembly founded by Christ no longer exists. However, if you study Matthew 16: 18, you will learn that His church will continue to perpetuate because Christ made a promise that, even the gates of hell shall not prevail against her. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. --Matthew 16:18 The...

In volume 1 and 2 of this work we reminded our readers that the Brethren Assemblies are a unique Christian group, and both insiders as well as outsiders to this group should know why it is so. While the church has seen many reformations, the reformation brought in by the Brethren is unusual and has left an impact upon all church groups. In this third volume we would like to give a summary of five major Biblical doctrines. There are a number of fundamental doctrines that the Brethren emphasize, and anyone found denying even one of them is not in conformity with the Bible and the New Testament.

Royal Priesthood Restored Uncover the Covenant. Rediscover Your Calling. Before Israel fell at Sinai, they were called to be a kingdom of priests—a holy nation in covenant with YHWH. But rebellion changed everything. The covenant was broken, the priesthood lost, and the Book of the Law was added to manage sin through ritual and separation. This book reveals: The clear distinction between the Book of the Covenant and the Book of the Law Why Messiah Yeshua fulfilled the law without abolishing it How Paul’s writings make sense when Torah is rightly divided The restoration of the royal ...
