This list of recommended books, podcasts, and resources is here to point you toward voices that will encourage your walk with Christ, deepen your love for Scripture, and equip you to live out the gospel in everyday life.
“Here is the story of a people and a faith told with the authority of a competent scholar, but in a livey style that makes reading church history both enjoyable and exciting.”
“A thoroughly frank account of Christian history…Dickson has written a very necessary book, which at the same time makes for enlightening and rewarding reading.”
“McLaughlin probes some of the trickiest cultural challenges to Christianity of our daily and clearly demonstrates the breadth and richness of a Christian response.”
Millions of lives have been changed by award-winning author Philip Yancey’s startling exploration of grace at street level. Grace is the one thing the world can’t duplicate, the healing force we need, and the key to transforming a broken world. “This is beyond a doubt the very best book I have read from a Christian author in my life.“
“Who Moved The Stone is considered by many to be a classic apologetic on the subject of the Resurrection.” Morison includes a vivid and poignant account of Christ’s betrayal, trial, and death as a backdrop to his retelling of the climactic Resurrection itself.
“Drawing on the best in recent scholarship and using her well-honed literary expertise, Evans examines some of our favourite Bible stories and possible interpretations, retelling them through memoir, original poetry, short stories, soliloquies, and even a short screenplay.”
“Phil Cary’s commentary on the Nicene Creed exhibits two virtues – clarity and brevity, which entail a third – usefulness. Here is a truly inviting introduction to the faith once delivered to the saints in baptism and continuously declared throughout the world in the church’s confession.”
“Whether you are seeking to understand the Christian faith for the first time or looking to be reminded of the essentials, John Stott offers a clear and full explanation of the gospel.”
“Our society is still obsessed with quick fixes. But Peterson’s time-test prescription for discipleship remains the same – a long obedience in the same direction.”
“Recent claims about the life of Jesus have raised many questions about the historicity of the main from Nazareth. In this accessible book, John Dickson addresses such issues as: When and where was Jesus born? Did he marry? What should we make of the ‘miracles’ he is reported to have performed?”
“In this classic study, John Stott provides clear biblical exposition on the promise, the fruit and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He offers particular guidance on the nature of “the baptism of the Spirit” and whether certain spiritual gifts and experiences should be normative for all Christians. Always irenic and gracious, Stott points the way to both greater biblical understanding and deeper fullness of spiritual life.”
The gospel – the good news of Jesus – is living water. When we drink deeply, our hearts are satisfied, our lives are renewed, and our everyday habits change. From the overflow, living water touches everything we think and speak, how we work and love.
“Those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.” | Jesus, John 4:14, NLT
This is what it means to be gospel saturated.
