Book News

Last year I ran a guest post series to mark the launch of Pleased to Dwell. There were some great posts from folks including Darrell Bock, Glen Scrivener, Dane Ortlund, Peter Comont, David Murray, Rick McKinley, John Hindley (click a name to see the post!)

Starting in the next few days I am going to run a guest post series to mark the launch of Foundations: Four Big Questions We Should Be Asking But Typically Don’t. This book is based on the sermons and speeches in Acts, so it should be a helpful little read for preachers, but it is targeted much wider. Maybe it will be a useful book in your church? Perhaps for a small group study, or as an encouraging giveaway, maybe for youth, maybe for your leadership team, maybe to folks on the fringe, perhaps even to some not-yet-believers who might be open to its message.

I am thankful to the friends who will be offering posts in this series and I hope it will be helpful for you. I will continue to intersperse my own posts related to preaching during these weeks.

If you are able to help spread the word about Foundations, please do. Momentum is building toward the launch and every social media comment encouraging others to follow, like, buy, etc. is appreciated. Here is the Facebook page, here is the twitter link (@4BigQs) and the book’s own website is FourBigQuestions.com. Thanks so much!

Foundations will be released in September by Christian Focus Publications. It is a short and dynamic book based on the speeches in the book of Acts. It is almost ready to go, but we need help deciding on the cover. Can you help? If you can, please click here to go to a very short survey. You can simply select a cover and finish, or you can add some comments on either design. Thanks so much for helping us choose the look for this book!

If you would like to be notified when Foundations is available, please sign up to follow this blog, or leave a comment on this post (I won’t let any email addresses show).

Here are a couple of the endorsements just to whet your appetite:

“Peter’s love of scripture, and his desire to see lives transformed bleed through the pages of this book. Explore the foundations of Christianity and engage anew the true story of a relationship between a human race whose sin is greater than we think, and a God whose grace is more amazing than we could imagine!”
