"Theologian Owen Strachan makes clear, wokeness is not true justice, nor is it true Christianity. While wokeness employs biblical vocabulary and concepts, it is an alternative religion, far from Christianity in both its methods and its fruit. A potent blend of racism, paganism, and grievance, wokeness encourages 'partiality' and undermines the unifying work of the Holy Spirit. It is not simply not the Gospel; it is anti-Gospel"--Christianbook.com....

"Strong men are not 'toxic.' If they go away, evil men take their place, and weak men offer no resistance. The idea that masculine men--assertive, risk-taking, single-minded--are a problem to be solved threatens our whole society. The cultural elites cheering the decline of men are trying to erase God's design for half of the human race--the half that historically provides, protects, and leads for the good of others. The disappearance of the masculine...

How do you access a real, thriving, vibrant faith? You trust a big God, and you start living like he's real. It's time to put our comfort and ease and false security on the line. If we know God is real, let's pray as if he's actually listening. If we know he's good, let's reflect that goodness in the world. When our problems feel big, let's lean on the One who is bigger. Is that risky? "Sure," says Owen Strachan. "Embrace it anyway. It's literally...

In this stirring systematic theology of atonement, Owen Strachan turns our gaze to the biblical Jesus-the greater David, a mighty king who comes in the power of God to save sinners and destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). The true Jesus is the most fascinating subject in all history: he is Lamb and Lion, gentle and ferocious, divine yet a humble servant. All these graces bear down on one moment in time: the cross. The Warrior Savior brings...

You've heard his name, you've probably heard your pastor quote him, but who is he really? 250 years later, Jonathan Edwards, America's consummate pastor-theologian, continues to capture the attention of Christians around the world. Yet Edwards left us over 1,200 sermons and thousands of pages of other publications, not to mention the literal thousands of books that have been written about Edwards since he died. Where does one even begin? That's why...
