Carson D A A Call to Spiritual Reformation
IVP UK 1997 0851109764 / 9780851109763 Paperback
[Number in stock: 1]
God doesn't demand hectic church programs and frentic schedules; he only wants his people to know him more intimately, says D. A. Carson. The apostle Paul found that spiritual closeness in his own fellowship with the Father. A Call to Spiritual Reformation investigates the Epistles to see what lessons Paul taught in his school of prayer.
Christians today can still achieve the confidence Paul enjoyed by following his life-shaping principles and searching for a deeper devotional experience.
D. A. Carson is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois. He is the author of How Long, O Lord? and editor of Teach Us to Pray and Right with God.

Carson D A A model of Christian maturity (2 Corinthians 10-13) [WAS called From Triumphalism To Maturity]
Baker Book House 2006 0801067685 / 9780801067686 Paperback
[Number in stock: 1]
According to Bible scholar D.A. Carson, 2 Corinthians 10-13 most clearly reveals Paul's heart and mind. It contains well-known passages, such as Paul's description of his thorn in the flesh and an intense chronicle of his specific suffering. This section of Scripture also models Paul's style of spiritual leadership and warns of false leadership in the church, something of crucial importance to anyone with an influential role in the body of believers. Carson unpacks Paul's call for us to embrace discipline and obedience, and his thoughts on the nature of spiritual boasting. Through Paul we explore the struggles, opportunities, and intentions of a Christian under fire, journeying with him as he seeks to guide the Corinthian church and speak to us as well.

CARSON D A Basics for believers (Philippians)
Intervarsity Press 2004 1844740307 / 9781844740307 Paperback
[Number in stock: 7]
Most of us have felt the temptation to opt for a domesticated version of the gospel. We want enough to make us happy and secure, but not so much that it really affects our lives. We want ecstasy not repentance, security not selfless love and services.
We may not like to admit it, but the temptation is there. It is nothing new, but perhaps it is especially strong today. Many changes in society and increasing self-indulgence all put pressure on believers to water down the gospel and minimize its impact on our lives.
Paul saw the insidious evil of similar influences in the Roman Empire of his day and recognized that these pressures could harm the fledgling Christian community in Philippi. He couldn't visit them, but he wrote to encourage them to maintain basic Christian commitments and to be on guard against any array of dangers: temptations from within and seduction and opposition from without.
In Basics for Believers, renowned Bible teacher and scholar Don Carson opens up the life-transforming lessons of Philippians, showing us how we can put the whole gospel first, learn to live as disciples of Christ and never give up the Christian walk.
D. A. Carson is Research Professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He is also a well-known speaker at events in Britain and is author of many books, including The Gagging of God (Apollos) and The Difficult Doctrine of the Love of God (IVP).

Carson D A Christ and culture revisited (paperback edition)
IVP 2008 1844742792 / 9781844742790 Paperback
[Number in stock: 2]
Called to live in the world, but not to be of it, Christians face the challenge of how they should interact with their culture, within which they can be deeply enmeshed, and which often departs from Judeo-Christian roots and values in significant ways.
In Christ and Culture Revisited, D. A. Carson begins by exploring Richard Niebuhr's classic typology, with its five options for understanding culture. He proposes that these disparate options are in reality one still larger vision. Using the Bible's own storyline and the categories of biblical theology, he attempts to work out what that unifying vision is. Carson acknowledges the helpfulness of Niebuhr's grid and other similar approaches, but warns against giving them canonical force.
More than just theoretical, Christ and Culture Revisited is also designed to help Christians untangle current debates about living in the world. Carson emphasizes that the relation between Christ and culture is not limited to an either/or cultural paradigm - Christ against culture or Christ transforming culture. Instead he offers his own paradigm in which all the categories of biblical theology must be kept in mind simultaneously to inform the Christian world-view.
Ground-breaking and challenging, Christ and Culture Revisited is a tour de force.
D.A. Carson is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois. He is the author of co-author of many other books, including The Gagging of God: Christianity Confronts Pluralism and How Long, O Lord? Reflections on Suffering and Evil.

Carson D A Collected Writings on Scripture
Crossway 2010 1433514419 / 9781433514418 Hardcover
[Number in stock: 2]
Essays and reviews from thirty years of a scholar's reflection on the doctrine of Scripture. Carson defends the inspiration and authority of Scripture through a theologically balanced and confessional perspective.
God's Word has always had enemies, but in recent years the inspiration and authority of Scripture have been attacked with renewed vigor. Respected scholar D. A. Carson has written widely on the nature of Scripture over the past thirty years, and here presents a timely collection of his work in two parts.
In part 1, Carson selects essays written on such themes as how to interpret the Bible, recent developments in the doctrine of Scripture, unity and diversity in the New Testament, and redaction criticism. Presenting a theologically balanced and confessional perspective, Carson defines the terms of a number of debates, critiques interpretive methods and theories, and suggests positive guidelines for future action.
Part 2 presents critical reviews of nine books dealing with the inspiration and authority of Scripture. Though substantial in content, Carson's detailed reviews will foster careful thought and perspective in those who are relatively new to the debates surrounding biblical inspiration and authority.
This volume is a diverse collection that will prove to be a helpful resource to both seasoned pastors and scholars and those who are just starting serious study of the Bible.
D. A. Carson is Research Professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, where he has taught since 1978. He earned a doctorate in New Testament Studies from Cambridge University. He is an active guest lecturer, and he has written or edited more than forty books. He and his wife, Joy, have two children and live in the north suburbs of Chicago.

CARSON D A Cross and Christian ministry - Leadership lessons from 1 Corinthians
Baker Book House 2003 0801091683 / 9780801091681 Paperback
[Number in stock: 5]
Is the cross truly the center of your ministry?
Today we commonly see images of the cross adorning churches, dangling from necklaces, and gleaming from lapels. Yet the image that is so sanitized for us today was grotesque and abhorrent to those living in the first century. It was a symbol of evil, torture, and shame. It is this realistic and horrifying view of the cross that should call us to Christian ministry and compel us to share the Good News of Christ's triumph over death.
Through his exposition of 1 Corinthians, D. A. Carson presents a comprehensive view of what the death of Christ means in preaching and ministering to God's people. He confronts the issues of factionalism, servant-leadership, shaping world Christians, and the source of knowledge in order to help Christian leaders learn principles for dynamic, cross-centered worship.
D. A. Carson (Ph.D., University of Cambridge) is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. He is the author or editor of over forty books, including The King James Version Debate; How Long, O Lord?; A Call to Spiritual Reformation; and Justification and Variegated Nomism.

Carson D A Entrusted with the Gospel - Pastoral Expositions of 2 Timothy
Crossway 2010 1433515830 / 9781433515835 Paperback
[Number in stock: 2]
The church needs a strong reminder of the glorious weight of Scripture. The Bible is preached from the pulpit less and less, and we need to return to what is most important. The Gospel Coalition seeks to address this need. It exists to be robustly biblical, richly theological, constantly elevating what God himself in his own Word makes central.
Stemming from the coalition’s 2009 National Conference and edited by D. A. Carson, this book explores the great responsibility of being entrusted with the gospel. Through six sermons expositing 2 Timothy, John Piper, Phil Ryken, Mark Driscoll, Edward Copeland, Bryan Chapell, and Ligon Duncan model faithful preaching rooted in Scripture.
These pastors take up themes such as unashamed courage in gospel preaching, rightly dividing the word of truth, pitfalls and parodies of ministry, and finishing well. A great resource for pastors, church leaders, and others in ministry, this volume will help readers better live the vision of 2 Timothy.

CARSON D A King James Version debate
Baker Book House 1979 0801024277 / 9780801024276 Paperback
[Number in stock: 2]
The King James Version is superior to all modern English translations of the Bible: so say many popularly written books and pamphlets.
The King James Version Debate is the first book-length refutation of this point of view written for both pastors and laymen. The author concisely explains the science of textual criticism since the main premise advanced by the KJV proponents is the superiority of the Greek text on which it is based.
After showing the problems with this premise, the author refutes the propositions that: (1) the KJB is the most accurate translation; (2) it is the most durable; (3) its use of the Old English forms (e.g., thou) makes it the most reverent; (4) it honours Christ more than do other versions; (5) it is the most easily memorized; and (6) it is most suitable for public reading.
Concluding the book is an appendix in which, on a more technical level, the author answers W. N. Pickering's The Identity of the New Testament Text, the most forbidable defense of the priority of the Byzantine text yet published in our day.
D. A. Carson, professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, holds the Ph.D. degree from Cambridge University. He is also a graduate of McGill University and Central Baptist Seminary (Toronto). He has authored The Sermon on the Mount: An Evangelical Exposition of Matthew 5-7/

CARSON D A Love in hard places
Crossway Books 2002 1581344252 / 9781581344257 Paperback
[Number in stock: 2]
Too often the Christian version of popular culture's sentimental view of love is that, of all things, Christians should be nice. After all, people ask, isn't the Church about forgiveness? Aren't Christians supposed to love others without condition?
This book not only focuses on the aspects of Christian love that are not easy--such as when it comes to loving our enemies, and even forgiving those loved ones who have hurt us--but also helps readers understand, then, what biblical love really is. As author D. A. Carson points out, thinking seriously about Christian love soon embroils us in reflection on justice, revenge, war, the authority of the state, forgiveness, hate, and much more. This book shows some of the important ways in which the love of Christians is a reflection of the love of God, and enables believers to develop an appropriate understanding of how to love in the hard places of life.
D. A. Carson is Research Professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He has authored more than forty books, including the bestseller The Gagging of God and this book's predecessor, The Difficult Doctrine of the Love of God.
