  • The Reason for God

    Timothy Keller, pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York, presents a case for the rationality of belief in God in The Reason for God.

In the second part of the book, he builds evidence for Christianity as a reasonable choice for explaining the world. Keller's book is intelligent and accessible.

  • When Sinners Say, “I Do”

    Marriage is the union of two people who arrive at the altar toting some surprisingly large luggage. Often it gets opened right there on the honeymoon, sometimes it waits for the week after. The Bible calls it sin and understanding its influence can make all the difference for a man and woman who are building a life together. When Sinners Say "I Do" is about encountering the life-transforming power of the gospel in the unpredictable journey of marriage.

  • Humility

    C. J. Mahaney paints a striking picture of the daily battle quietly raging within every Christian and asks whether you will passively accommodate the enemy of your soul, pride, or actively cultivate your best friend, humility.

You will find a new life is yours—a life God richly favors. A God-glorifying life you don’t want to miss.

  • True Riches: A Book Review

    True Riches, written by Wyatt’s own Ray Traylor, sheds light on biblical stewardship. At the foundational level, stewardship is about more than money, it is about the lordship of Jesus over all of one’s life. When one is fully surrendered to Christ, money becomes a tool to leverage for the gospel.  In this book, Traylor does an excellent job showing the relationship of wealth to the Christian life. Plus, he goes a step further by sharing principles for building wealth for the advancement of God’s Kingdom.

  • The Knowledge of the Holy

    This is a great “Introduction to Theology” book by a down-to-earth writer. Tozer examines in a straightforward way each of the attributes that make our God who He is. While most people in today’s society constantly try to define “a God that works for them,” Tozer unapologetically outlines who God says He is, and what that should practically mean for our lives as Christians.

  • Radical

    “Radical: Taking Back Your Faith From The American Dream” by David Platt is a book anyone can read and everyone should read. Drawing on his experience of leading his own church to take some bold steps of faith towards God, Platt asks you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel of Jesus to fit our cultural preferences. He begins the book by explaining and describing the beauty of the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ. Platt then with a sensitive scalpel begins to carve up some of the wrong beliefs, practices, and lifestyles that we in America have adopted that greatly hinder many of us from living out the gospel of our Lord and Savior. Reading this book will help you examine your own life, your motives, and your faith. You will question what you are doing with your money and whether you are really living a sold-out life to Jesus. Your heart will be burdened for God’s name and honor and for those who do not know Him. Reading this book will be an encouragement for you to leave behind the things of the world, cling to the God who saves and transforms lives, and find joy in being “radical” for Jesus no matter what circumstances. “Radical” is a book for both young and old.
