The whole Bible tells the story of redemption—the story of God’s redeeming grace in the person and work of Jesus Christ. From Old Testament to New Testament the point of Scripture is to reveal God’s salvation of sinners through Jesus Christ. That is why the goal of this book for this Advent is to take a brief flyover of the entire Bible. My prayer is that through this overview our faith can be strengthened and our resolve can be renewed in the truth that the Bible is one grand narrative showcasing God’s glory and His plan of redemption through the person and work of His Son, Jesus Christ.

In our current day, lawlessness seems to rule. For too long we have ignored God’s gracious means for having an orderly society and have rejected the power of God's law. This book recovers a vital yet neglected doctrine, the second use of God's moral law, as a means of restraining evil, upholding justice, and preserving order in a fallen world. Rooted in Scripture, historic Baptist confessions, and the wider Protestant tradition, it makes a clear case: God’s law still matters—not just in His church, but in His world.

The pro-life establishment insisted to their Christian and conservative supporters over the course of several decades that Roe was the main factor preventing them from ending abortion in the United States. Yet even after Dobbs, abortion rates not only started to rise in predominantly Democratic states, but also in predominantly Republican states where the pro-life establishment has massive political influence, especially because of a trend toward self-managed abortions.

In the nineteenth century it was not unusual for pastors to produce "manuals" of doctrine for the edification of their flocks. Be Sure What You Believe is in that tradition. The great doctrines of the Bible are discussed with pastoral concern, and are presented with a minimum of academic language. This book can be given to Christians who desire to grow in understanding the teaching of the scriptures, and to seekers as well.

The Folly and Vanity of Youth was inspired by a series of sermons preached by Benjamin Keach (1640-1704) on the parable of the laborers in the vineyard (Matthew 20: 1–16). Expanding upon Keach’s list of sins common to young people, Corey Johnson examines each one in detail, challenging the notion that young age absolves moral responsibility while consistently proclaiming Christ as the only hope for sinners. This book was written with the intention to help bring young people to maturity, encourage them to leave their childish ways.

This book contains a defense of the idea that God’s rest on Day 7 of the creation week is instructive for people today. More technically, this book argues for the propriety of weekly Sabbath rest. This means that the normal pattern to be followed by humanity is a week, consisting of seven 24-hour days, six of which are spent in work while the other day is devoted to rest. Theologians would use the language of God’s rest being a “creation ordinance,” which is a term that many theologians use, but none have defined.
