“Adrian Warnock rightly highlights the common neglect of the resurrection and helpfully shows why this matters.” Tim Chester The Crowded House and the Northern Training Institute “Adrian Warnock is brilliantly obsessed with the resurrection!” Marcus Honeysett Author, Finding Joy “Books are often dull, repetitive or have nothing new to say. Raised with Christ is different.” Jonathan Carswell Founder of The 10 Group of Companies (incorporating www.10ofthose.com) “This is an excellent book on a much neglected subject.” Sam Allberry Author, Lifted... Read more

John Piper’s website has many places where he reveals a charismatic or as some call it continuationist perspective. Earlier in the week he argued that even in the New Testament the gifts of the Spirit were non-authoritative and inferior to the Apostles teaching: The apostles viewed their teaching as from God in an authoritative, inerrant way. All of the spiritual gifts are from God in a non-authoritative, non-inerrant way, and therefore always subordinate to the inspired word of God. READ... Read more

I got home just a little while ago from grabbing dinner with a man who I am starting to see as a friend. I am usually a little nervous about leaders in the broader evangelical movement if I am honest. I worry that my friendships with the people that run New Word Alive might make some perceive me as their enemy–I do appreciate that I am probably wrong to think that way, at least in most cases! I did not... Read more

The first of the following two endorsements for my forthcoming book made me smile. Written as it was by Jonathan Carswell, a significant figure in the UK Christian publishing industry, who hence reads many books, I just wondered if he was having a bad day and was hence a little too honest! But, for him to say what he did was very kind. In addition, Sam is a good friend of mine who has written a short introductory book on... Read more

The remarkable story of the team which was brought back from the brink of closure and won both constructors and drivers championship in their first year under a new name is one that people will talk about for years. One of the best pieces of analysis I have found so far is on the BBC and is entitled The remarkable story of Brawn GP. There is no doubt indeed that it is Brawn himself who has made the difference to... Read more

I want to share today from The Doctor on the problem of self. Our society tells us to feed our independence, our self-sufficiency and as a result our pride. The Doctor wisely points to a very different way: How well the devil knows our human weakness! There is no method, therefore, that he more frequently uses . . . than just to play on this problem of self as it is present in every one of us. The ways in... Read more

Spurgeon is at his best in the following quote. He speaks about the way in which God likes to bring people to the very end of themselves before taking ahold of them and using them for his glory: Is it not a curious thing that whenever God means to make a man great, He always first breaks him in pieces? There was a man whom the Lord meant to make into a prince. How did He do it? Why, He... Read more

Letter to a soon-to-be-published author | Culture Making: “It is good to keep in mind Mark Twain’s admittedly harsh dictum, ‘Most books come into the world with all the fanfare of a stillborn child.’ The truth is that unlike, say, your wedding day, there will be a great and utter lack of excitement about your book the day it is published. And the day after. And most days after that. Believe me. My book has done well, perhaps embarrassingly so,... Read more

Endorsements continue to come in for my forthcoming book, Raised With Christ, How The Resurrection Changes Everything. Here are two more which once again encouraged me no end: “Finally, a new generation of readers has a clear and highly readable book on the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In Raised with Christ, Christians are in for a delightful surprise as they grasp anew all the benefits which flow from Jesus’ resurrection—what an awesome difference it can make in our lives, our... Read more
