The softcover NIV Single-Column Bible is very reader friendly. Unlike “reader bibles” which remove verses and chapters for readability, the SCB also works well as a church bible and home study bible.

Book Review: NIV Discover God’s Heart Devotional Bible
Discover God’s Heart Devotional Bible provides wonderful devotions for a straight-through reading of the Scriptures. I am not sure how valuable it will be as a long-term Bible. But I am once again impressed with the quality of devotional/study material put forth by Zondervan.
Book Review: History, Law and Christianity by John Warwick Montgomery
History, Law and Christianity is a short work that deserves to be read by anyone studying apologetics. Even if these arguments are not conforming to every preference, they demonstrate that belief in the Divine Christ of the Scriptures is reasonable.
Book Review: Traces of the Trinity
Leithart wants to show that there is a pattern “mutual indwelling” to the created order. This mutual indwelling is seen most clearly when we understand that the vitality of the way objects and people relate to one another is through their inhabiting of one another. This co-inhabitation does not blur the lines of difference between objects but rather is created by the distinct differences inherent to the objects.
Book Review: Searching for Sunday by Rachel Held Evans
A resource for understanding how the “churched” of today view the evangelical tradition, and what questions many of them are asking. In several ways this book ought to fade from relevance.
Seeking Sunday with Rachel Held Evans
In many ways I hope this book fades from relevance.

Book Review: Faith, Freedom, and the Spirit by Paul Molnar
“To those who sincerely believe that some apologetic approach to theology built on general human experience, history, psychology, sociology or philosophy is required before engaging in a strictly dogmatic theology, this book will certainly offer a challenge” (419).
Book Review: Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory by Jerry Walls
Heaven, Hell and Purgatory is worth a slow read. The investigation and dismantling of secular philosophies will benefit all Christians. The distinctions made concerning purgatory will benefit inquisitive and open Protestants.
Book Review: You and Your Household by Gregg Strawbridge
Strawbridge provides a veteran presentation of the historic Reformed position on infant baptism. Strawbridge demonstrates that covenantal thinking encapsulates all of God’s dealing with mankind. Infant baptism is the natural, logical, and biblical conclusion to consistent covenantal thinking. You and Your Household is written with clarity and is a great primer.

Book Review: Miracles of Jesus by David Miles
While the story itself is inferior to other portions of the Adventure Bible I Can Read! Series, it remains part of a valuable and appreciated addition to our library.
