Scholarship on Fire
Scholarship on Fire: A History of the "Chair of Fire" and Southern Baptist Evangelism in Theological Education takes a step back into early-twentieth-century Texas Baptist history and observes the unveiling of the crown jewel of the Southern Baptist Convention, the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and the events that led the forward-thinking architect of theological education, Benajah Harvey (B. H.) Carroll, to the creation of the world's first endowed chair of evangelism and professorship of evangelism at his newly formed Texas seminary. This book carries the reader through a 112-year history of an academic chair and professorship that both educated men and women in the art of pers...
The Reformed and Celibate Pastor
Richard Baxter (1615–1691) was arguably the greatest English Puritan of the seventeenth century. He is well known for his ministerial manual "The Reformed Pastor", in which he expressed the unusual conviction that parish ministers were better off unmarried. And yet, Baxter seemed to contradict himself by marrying one of his parishioners, Margaret Charlton. Though Baxter claimed to be happily married, he continued to champion celibacy for the rest of his life. This book explores Baxter's argument for clerical celibacy by placing it in the context of his life and the turbulent events of seventeenth-century England. His viewpoint was shaped by several factors, including the Puritan literature he read, the context of his parish ministry, his burdensome model of soul care, and the formative life experiences shaping his theology and perspective. These factors not only explain why Baxter became the only Puritan to champion clerical celibacy but also why he continued to do so even after marrying.

Richard Baxter and Conversion
Puritan religious experience was centred on conversion, the "new birth" of the soul - the essence of Puritanism. Tim Beougher forensically dissects Baxter's writings and life so that we see how he constructs a "systematic theology of conversion."

Dawson Trotman
As Dawson Trotman came to understand what role he was to play in God’s kingdom, he got down to business doing what he was gifted in: developing effective processes for teaching people how to read, study, and memorize Scripture. Out of his passion came a new approach to discipleship and with it a ministry organization called The Navigators. Dawson Trotman: In His Own Words contains excerpts from his personal journals, private correspondence, original sermons, and “Faithful Men,” the unfinished manuscript he had intended to be his major work on discipleship. The book also contains 52 devotions built around his writings and Scripture plus images, illustrations, essays, and articles created by Daws so you can see firsthand how he would have presented them.

Examining Billy Graham's Theology of Evangelism
'Examining Billy Graham's Theology of Evangelism' was written to advance an unbiased understanding of Billy Graham's theology and practice. Theological examination of Graham's sermons revealed four distinct eras in his theology and practice: -The Early-Early Graham (pre-1949) -The Early Graham (1949-1955) -The Middle Graham (1955-1965) -The Later Graham (1965-present) In each of these eras Graham portrayed a discernible and distinct approach to defining evangelism, theological nomenclature, and cooperative strategy. No literature on Billy Graham discusses, in combination, this evolution in Graham's theology and practice. You are invited to take a fresh look at the teaching and practice of this man who has touched millions of lives through the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
