Summary: The Celtic Way of Evangelism
Comment: This book brings to the fore a missing picture of true faith in Jesus. For too long the church in the West has become ingrained. We have refused to believe people can reach God. This book by George Hunter gives us the structure to take back our heritage of reaching others. It will rock your world IF you read it! Do so!

Summary: A Defense of TRUTH
Comment: Praise God for this book! For too long the real Christian church has allowed the evils of liberalism to rule our pulpits. First, integration, then women, soon gays, and all under the guise of "postmodernism." All the men in this book will burn in hell for the way they have perverted the TRUTH of the BIBLE. Millar Erickson has the guts to tell the real story. It represents people like me, who think hard about what is wrong, and get sick when slick neotheologians try to tell us that there is no unchanging TRUTH. READ THIS BOOK, it reveals why the churches are weak, but the TRUE CHURCH will remain forever, and partly because of this book and other like it. Anything "postconservative" cannot be Christian, and modernism is bad enough (along with formalism and worldliness), but POSTmodernism cannot be tolerated. This book is great for Bible classes, church training classes, and adult reading clubs. It is for thinking people, but is written at a level that anyone in the Church can read it and profit from it. Please read this book.

Summary: Balanced and Biblical Refutation of Neotheism
Comment: A masterful exposure of the main shortcomings of neotheism, namely its unawareness of compensating for the bias of its own presuppositions. Every theological framework, including neotheism, has a historical/philosophical context with all the accompanying premises, stated or unstated, conscious or unconscious. The author irenically but repeatedly points out the failure of neotheists to put their control belief cards on the table for all to see, then honestly evaluate them in the light of Scripture, reason and history/philosophy/logic for consistency, coherence, and authentication. Until this movement and its proponents are able/willing to do this in a reasonably thorough way, it cannot hope to intelligibly or meaningfully engage the historic Biblical position on God's infinite foreknowledge, for example. Assuming that even Almighty God cannot know a future we humans have not created makes the god of neotheism in Phillips' words, "your god is too small", and thereby colors all relevant texts examined in support of their theory. Can't the Bible declare a God Who knows all the future exhausively while simultaneously allowing humans to unfold it making Him aware but them responsible? The presupposition that God knowing the future doesn't force humans to make it so should be just as valid as the opposite premise. Which is more plausible and Biblical is a matter of examining all the relevant Scriptural material,not selective anthropomorphic/anthropopathic verses, to see which presupposition can account for all the Biblical data. This book read in conjunction with D.A.Carson's Exegetical Fallacies is a powerful rebuttal to neotheism. See also Norman Geisler's Creating God in Man's Image.
