Confessing Christ
Edited by Baptist scholars Steven A. McKinion, Christine E. Thornton, and Keith S. Whitfield, Confessing Christ: An Introduction to Baptist Dogmatics offers a unique and comprehensive exploration of Baptist theology. Grounded in the belief that theology is both exploratory and explanatory, the book introduces a historical, covenantal, ecclesial, and confessional approach to Baptist Dogmatics. Each essay delves into a specific area of dogmatic theology, covering essential topics such as God, Scripture, anthropology, Christology, salvation, ecclesiology, the sacraments, the Christian life, and eschatology. The volume editors emphasize the importance of renewing Baptist life and mission through...
Fulfilling the Great Commission
Editors Nathan Finn and Keith Whitfield have collected over a dozen of essays written in honor of the president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Daniel Akin. These essays highlight various biblical themes in connection to Akin’s missional emphasis in his theology and personal life.
Spirituality for the Sent
While spiritual formation focuses on the inner life of the Christian, the missional church discussion focuses on one's life in the world. Nathan A. Finn and Keith S. Whitfield bring together leading evangelical voices to cast a new vision for a missional spirituality that fosters spiritual maturity while also fueling Christian evangelism, cultural engagement, and the pursuit of justice.
The Trinity in the Canon
For the church, trinitarian theology should flow into two streams: ORTHODOXY AND ORTHOPRAXY. Editor Brandon Smith and a stellar cast of theologians demonstrate that trinitarian theology derives directly from Scripture and should produce both right doctrine and right living. The Trinity in the Canon is an appeal for the church to incorporate the Trinity into our preaching, our liturgies and worship, and our interactions with those outside the church. Pastors, scholars, professors, students, and laypersons will benefit spiritually, theologically, and practically from this in-depth study of the Trinity.

Schreiner -Darian R. Lockett -Brandon D. Smith -Malcolm B. Yarnell III -Daniel Lee Hill -David Baggett
A Handbook of Theology
In A Handbook of Theology, editors Daniel Akin, David Dockery, and Nathan Finn select nearly fifty contributors in the Baptist and evangelical heritage to lay a biblically informed foundation of a Christian theology for students, pastors, and church leaders. This volume surveys six parts of theology: foundations (Part 1), types of theology (Part 2) history and geography (Part 3), Christian doctrine (Part 4), the Christian life (Part 5), and theology and culture (Part 6). Each author centers their theological topics in the Scriptures while also being Trinitarian, Christ-centered, Spirit-enabled, and mission-focused. The Theology for the People of God series is edited by David S. Dockery, Nathan A. Finn, and Christopher W. Morgan.
On Classical Trinitarianism
Motivated by the longstanding need to retrieve the classical doctrine of the Trinity, theologian Matthew Barrett brings together over forty Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox scholars in one ecumenical volume, demonstrating that Nicene orthodoxy can endure in the modern world and unite the church catholic.
Hope for God's Creation
What are the connections between the Great Commission and creation care? In Hope for God’s Creation, Andrew Spencer develops a Christian vision for creation care that is rooted in the goodness of the physical world and the hope for new creation. Spencer demonstrates that a hopeful and realistic environmental ethic is a natural result of an orthodox, evangelical theology. An accessible, biblical, and winsome guide, Spencer’s work invites the reader to consider stewardship as a way of life and an act of worship.
Sculptor Spirit
Like the work of an artist who molds a lump of clay, the Spirit's sanctifying work lies in shaping people into the image of Christ. Avoiding either a "Spirit-only" or a "Spirit-void" theology, Leopoldo Sánchez carefully crafts a Spirit Christology, which considers the role of God's Spirit in the life and mission of Jesus and leads to five distinct models of sanctification that can help Christians discern how the Spirit is at work in our lives.
God
Knowing, loving, and worshiping God is the call and privilege of every disciple of Jesus. Because all Christians are part of his royal priesthood, theology is not just for those teaching in the academy or serving in ministry vocations. Theology proper centers on God, exploring his existence, his divine nature, his Persons, and his attributes. In this book you will find an overview of these truths in the doctrine of God as well as other great truths in the doctrine of divine revelation. You are not simply setting out on a journey toward deeper knowledge. If theological study only results in knowing abstract truths about God, then we have not done theology well. Right theology invariably leads to right living and right worship, and this is our ultimate goal in these books and in this life. God is the first volume of a three-part series entitled Theology for Every Person. The other volumes will include God’s Word to the World, which considers God in Christ and his works of creation, humanity, and redemption, and God’s Work in the World, which explores God the Holy Spirit and the divine works of salvation, the church, and the end.
Abide and Go
The Gospel of John would seem to be both the “spiritual Gospel” and a Gospel that promotes Christian mission. Some interpreters, however, have found John to be the product of a sectarian community that promotes a very narrow view of Christian mission and advocates neither love of neighbor nor love of enemy. In this book for both the academy and the church, Michael Gorman argues that John has a profound spirituality that is robustly missional, and that it can be summarized in the paradoxical phrase “Abide and go,” from John 15. Disciples participate in the divine love and life, and therefore in the life-giving mission of God manifested in the ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus. As God’s children, disciples become more and more like this missional God as they become like his Son by the work of the Spirit. This spirituality, argues Gorman, can be called missional theosis.
