“I would go so far as to say this is the most important book written in 100 years on justification.” - @timkellernyc
Still think these two volumes are under celebrated. I have found them so helpful and students often really appreciate them.

Great price on a great book. QTing to make sure more folks see this price and pick it up.
My book on premodern hermeneutics, Taught by God, is nearly 50% off right now on Amazon ($12.95). If you use it this year as a textbook in class or with a group at church, I’ll be happy to Zoom in and chat with your peeps if you’d like! amzn.to/4o6itdG
If you want to bless your soul, pause for two minutes, grab Calvin's Institutes and read one section: Book 2, Chapter 12, Point 2. It has me smiling with gratitude in my office this morning. Here are two quotes from that section:
Tommy Kidd is one of those leaders where the closer you get, the more impressed you will be. There are not enough folks like him. From afar his gifting is obvious but he is likely Godlier, wiser, and more stable than folks could know from afar. Here he is leading worship this AM.
I've been blessed by the simple words of these three verses written by Nathan Partain and sung by @wescrawford this week. They were in my head enough I wanted to write them down. Thought I'd share in case they may bless someone else. Here's the song: open.spotify.com/track/50wfHnon…
Tonight is the night. If you are in Kansas City, you are invited to come to this free event. I'll be talking about how theology should cultivate the fruit of the Spirit and ways it can be hijacked to work contrary to the good, the true, and the beautiful. emmauskc.churchcenter.com/calendar/event…
Had some fun recording a few lectures for @MBTS / @MBTSGlobal today. My hope is to serve online students well and attempt to show how theology is amongst the deepest wells of delight the Lord has give us.
Family morning at the market this morning. This little one seems to be enjoying KC so far. Thankful for this life with her.
This is an insane deal from @RHB_Books. Students, I hope many of you take advantage of this. Amongst my favorite series right now.
Another colleague with a promising contribution. Eager to benefit from your labors here, @geoffchang.
Submitted a manuscript today for this latest work - Spurgeon's Pastoral Wisdom: Articles on the Church and Ministry from The Sword and the Trowel. This is an organized collection of Spurgeon's best pastoral theology through 30 years of his monthly magazine. Coming soon!
Major congrats to my friend and colleague, @pj_schreiner. I've had the benefit of hearing him talk about this subject a few times and am confident this will be a helpful book.
It’s finally here—the cover of "The Four Senses of Scripture." 📷 📔 This book has been so fun to write and at the heart of what I'm passionate about. Coming August 2026 from @BakerAcademic. Preorders open soon—stay tuned! bakeracademic.com/p/the-four-sen…
A good morning writing a fun little piece on Lewis and creation.
