2020 ECPA Christian Book Award Finalist for Bible Resources.God's rottweiler or shepherd of the faithful?There's no doubt about Benedict XVI's theological legacy. He's been at the center of every major theological controversy in the Catholic Church over the last fifty years. But he remains a polarizing figure, misunderstood by supporters and opponents alike.A deeper understanding of Benedict's theology reveals a man dedicated to the life and faith of the church. In this collection of essays, prominent Protestant theologians examine and commend the work of the Pope Emeritus. Katherine Sonderegger, Kevin Vanhoozer, and Carl Trueman-among others-present a full picture of Benedict's theology, particularly his understanding of the relationship between faith and reason and his pursuit of truth for the church. The global Christian faith can learn from Benedict's insight into the modern church and his desire to safeguard the future of the church by leaning on the wisdom of the ancient church.Contributors:Tim PerryBen MyersKatherine SondereggerGregg R.

Death will strike your congregation. Are you ready? Are they?Death has become a four-letter word. Whereas in previous generations, the practice of memento mori ("remember death") was embedded in family life, people today have found ways to distance themselves from death. As Western culture becomes increasingly more secular, the Christian understanding of death and the funeral appear more and more strange.Fear of death affects us all, and so pastors have significant hurdles to overcome. What Christians need today is a renewed vision of the traditional Christian funeral liturgy. In Funerals, Tim Perry recovers the rich theology inherent to the Christian funeral: communion with the saints in death, peace in forgiveness, hope in the resurrection, and joy in life eternal. Perry guides pastors through the practice of funerals, from planning the service to preaching the eulogy, and offers wisdom for the hard cases.Perry's Funerals will help pastors disciple their people to see through the valley of the shadow of death and into the hope beyond.

2025 Christianity Today Book Award Winner, Politics and Public LifeEvangelicals are choosing heresyEvangelicals fight for a place at the table, but we are in danger of losing our house. The church has become consumed by politics--political priorities and allegiances. Christian brothers and sisters have become opponents. We are no longer united by shared faith, but divided by shared heresy.When Politics Becomes Heresy is Tim Perry's loving rebuke and call to repentance. Evangelicals are embracing the logic of ancient heresies. We are using the gospel for power (Simony), integrating our faith with worldliness (Gnosticism), exchanging our heavenly Savior for a human helper (Arianism), transforming our mission into social action (Pelagianism), and demonizing other believers (Donatism).The solution is not to switch sides or carve out a third way. Rather, the proper response to unbelief is repentance. We must stop, turn around, and return to God's gracious throne.As for the idols of the nations, they are but silver and gold,the work of human hands. Those who make them are like them,and so are all who put their trust in them.
