Recovering Music Education as a Christian Liberal Art explores how parents and educators can help their children and students appreciate and understand God’s general revelation through the language of music.  The book compares and contrasts secular ideas about music and its uses with a more biblically informed and rationally honest view, in which Christians should be training their youths.

Rev. Wyatt Tee Walker, Chief of Staff for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., states: "Black Sacred Rhetoric is an invaluable addition to the cultural history of African Americans. Gregory Howard has made an inestimable contribution to understanding the resilience of the Black faith community... As a cultural historian, I welcome this creative and seminal work..." Katie Geneva Cannon, Annie Scales Rogers Professor for Christian Ethics at Union Theological Seminary states: "This commentary is much-needed both in the church and in terms of the ongoing rhetorical conversations taking place in the theological academy. Howard is entirely at ease with the basic principles and assumptions that drive Black Preaching." Rev. Angelo V. Chatmon Director of Church Relations at Virginia Union University states: "Howard presents the linguistic expressions which have emerged out of "Black Preaching" as a theologically credible and contributing partner in the language of preaching."

Combining both keen historical reflection and rich biblical insight, Michael Haykin has pulled from his expertise in both church history and biblical spirituality in the writing of this volume. The book has already received high praise from several individuals who have endorsed the book.  Malcolm B. Yarnell states: “This little treasure...comes with my highest recommendation.”Dr. Russell Moore, Dean of the School of Theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, writes: Michael Haykin’s The Empire of the Holy Spirit is not just a book about the Holy Spirit.  This is a book written, obviously, by one who knows the Person (not just the topic) of which he writes. This book will prompt you to think.  You’ll want to scratch down notes, and talk about insights over coffee with friends.  But, more than that, this book will prompt you to get on your knees, through the Spirit of God, and cry out “Abba Father!”

From the introduction by Donald E. Meek: "Peter Grant is best known to Highlanders and Islanders as the composer of many Gaelic hymns of evangelical experience which have remained popular to the present day. To countless generations, he has been acknowledged in Gaelic as Pàdraig Grannd nan Oran ("Peter Grant of the Songs")-the composer of songs of spiritual vitality and magnetic attraction...Peter Grant, the poet, is ...well known, but Peter Grant, the preacher, is a relatively obscure figure, although his skills as an expositor have been remembered in Gaelic tradition, and his ability as a descriptive writer in English can be gauged from his reports to the Baptist Home Missionary Society. So far, however, we have not been privileged to sample the preaching style that proclaimed the Word of God, in both Gaelic and English, in the pulpit of Grantown-on-Spey, and drew audiences from miles around. In this book, we are given a splendid opportunity to experience something of Peter Grant, the preacher, by means of his surviving sermons in English."

From Jerry Rankin, President Emeritus of the International Mission Board: "Steve Wilkes has brought to light a dilemma that is all too common and seldom discussed. In SPIRITUAL PROBLEMS OF COMMITTED CHRISTIANS Wilkes discusses with candor the issues of discouragement, doubt, lust, fear and others that badger the most dedicated follower of Christ. Saturated with Scripture and filled with candid personal illustrations with which the reader will readily identify, the book goes on to offer solutions to overcoming these problems and claiming the victory we have been given in Christ." From Elmer Towns, co-founder of Liberty University: "No matter how spiritual you become, you will be attacked by temptation. And remember, Satan knows your weaknesses and will try to get to you anyway he can. Steve Wilkes has written a book on the temptations that beset the committed Christian; but he does not to stop there, he shows how to overcome temptations, to keep ones commitment strong, and to be victorious over sin. May you become more committed to Jesus Christ as a result of reading this book, and may you accomplish more in servicing Christ." Author Steve Wilkes is a professor in the Department of Missions at Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary and is the Editor of the "Journal of Evangelism and Missions." He is also President of World-Wide Church Planters, a group that helps to start churches in responsive areas of the world. He has served in the ministry for over 39 years and has spent 26 years teaching Baptist ministers.

Is there a sublime beauty in the commonplace? How do we know it? How do we see it? How do we learn to taste, touch, feel, and see all the joys of creation in a more meaningful way? "Unframed Beauty" is a book about the commonplace. Elizabeth Elmers creatively sets out new ideas for observing the world more thoughtfully in order to find joy in everyday living. It's precisely because we fail to appreciate enough of the miracles around us that we need a book like this to remind us of all the amazing treasures of life right at our fingertips. T. DAVID GORDON writes: ""Beauty Unframed" is that extremely rare book that is hard to put down, though not narrative. There is probably an argument in it, but it does not feel like an argument; it feels like an invitation. It is an invitation--to look longer, smell longer, taste, hear, and feel longer, and more thoughtfully--at things that are well crafted. Whether at God's crafts or our own, this wonderful volume invites us, chapter by chapter, to notice what is worthy of our notice. I found it very hard to put down, and you will too."

David Dockery, President of Union University, writes: Walt Padelford is to be applauded for this work on BONHOEFFER AND BUSINESS ETHICS, which not only provides fresh perspective on the challenging work of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, but offers insightful application for the field of business ethics. I can envision this volume making a significant difference in business classes for both professors and students in days ahead. Moreover, this fine book will certainly have a powerful influence for all who seek to live as faithful followers of Jesus Christ. Richard Chewning, Emeritus Professor of Christian Ethics at Baylor University, writes: The book is a "wonderful read" for anybody interested in business, business ethics, or practical theology...BONHOEFFER AND BUSINESS ETHICS raises the bar. Dr. Padelford escorts us through the maturing of Dietrich Bonhoeffer as he journeyed from pacifism to being a participant in the plot to kill Hitler. The lesson: life in the world is the crucible where Christ is manifested, and this is life's highest objective-also for business ethics. Christ takes form in the world of business through the inner struggles of those in whom He lives as they engage in the rough and tumble of the marketplace. Ethical principles, ideas, and formulations are the milk of the classroom but poor substitutes for the real challenges encountered in the fallen world. The centrality of Christ; an understanding of the stresses faced in commerce; and the spiritual formation of the lives of students: these three essentials should be tackled in Christian Business Schools.
