"Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching." --1 Timothy 4:16· Understand the greatest threats to your preaching· Identify common tests of your character· Learn gospel-based habits that guard your heartPreachers cannot separate themselves from their preaching. Every time a preacher proclaims the word, something of themselves is also delivered to the congregation--for better or worse. In The Heart of the Preacher, Rick Reed draws from over three decades of preaching experience to emphasize how preachers must prepare their hearts before they are ready to preach. Sermon preparation involves more than mere technical steps. Preachers are people. Exhaustion, discouragement, insecurity, and more threaten a preacher's character, and thus their preaching. Reed equips pastors with practices and habits to face these threats. Preachers must guard their lives so that their teaching will be accompanied by the fruit of the Spirit.

Christianity Today 2025 Book of the Year Award of MeritChristianity Today 2025 Book Award Winner (Apologetics and Evangelism)"Joins conviction and compassion in a sober, cogent analysis."--Christianity Today***What is the relationship between sex and gender? Understand society's shifts in thinking and talking about sex and gender? Discover how biological sex guides gender? Recognize how the Bible speaks to gender and transgender? Respond to affirming interpretations of Scripture? Answer gender confusion with clarity and compassionIn The Body God Gives: A Biblical Response to Transgender Theory, Robert S. Smith argues that God intends a person's gender to be grounded in the reality of his or her biological sex--the body God has given. In making his case, Smith critiques the central claim of transgender theory: that the sexed body does not determine the gendered self. He also evaluates contemporary changes in thought and speech about sex and gender, responding to modern confusion with biblical conviction and compassion. God speaks clearly, both in his word and in his world.

Herman Bavinck on the challenges theologians face· Herman Bavinck's counsel to theologians· A unique window into Bavinck's thought· An overlooked work from a key Neo-Calvinist thinkerIn The Foremost Problems of Contemporary Dogmatics, Herman Bavinck identifies the primary challenges confronting Protestant theologians in the early twentieth century. Since the main difficulties do not concern specific heads of doctrine but arise in theological method, Bavinck's focus narrows to the act of faith. Bavinck demonstrates the necessity of viewing faith as knowledge rather than mere trust, recounting the development of doctrine from the biblical authors through the dawn of the twentieth century. This book provides a unique window into Bavinck's thought, as he speaks candidly about the limitations and failures of Reformed theology and the relative merits of modern thinkers. The Foremost Problems of Contemporary Dogmatics was a series of lectures delivered at the Free University shortly after Bavinck moved to Amsterdam in 1902. Edited and translated by Gert de Kok and Bruce R. Pass, these previously unpublished lectures are available for the first time in English.
