2008 Books
The 2008 Colorado Springs Reformation Day Conference included a great bookstore featuring books from publishers such as Banner of Truth, Reformation Heritage and Crown & Covenant at discounted prices. We will also offered, and particularly promoting, Dr. Clark’s books:
Recovering the Reformed Confession
Scheduled for release in October, 2008 from P&R.
At a time when “all that is solid melts in the air” and distinct colors fade to gray, R. Scott Clark reminds us of the loveliness, depth, and richness of Reformed Christianity. Not only a TULIP, but a confession that bears fruit in both faith and practice, the account that you will find in this book may challenge, but its point is not to be missed.
Covenant, Justification and Pastoral Ministry
The doctrine of justification and covenant theology are two of the most basic and yet most misunderstood doctrines in the contemporary Reformed world. This volume addresses both doctrines carefully, biblically, theologically, and practically. Few books address both covenant theology and justification, and relate these two doctrines to our confessions and virtually no treatments address it from the point of view of the theological departments: Exegetical theology, Systematic Theology, Historical Theology, and Practical Theology. This volume is intended for an academic audience but it is accessible to intelligent laity.
Baptism, Election, & the Covenant of Grace
On its face, the Reformed understanding of our Lord‘s command to make disciples and to baptize them and their children seems clear enough. However, judging by modern discussion in the confessional Reformed and Presbyterian churches, things are more complicated than on might expect. In this pamphlet, R. Scott Clark examines this thesis, discussing covenantal distinctions within Reformed circles.
Caspar Olevian on the Substance of the Covenant
This study of Caspar Olevian‘s doctrine of the covenant and its ‘twofold benefit‘, justification and sanctification, places Olevian‘s thought in historical context, and, by so doing, puts to rest a number of misconstructions of doctrinal development during this time while shedding new light upon the relationship of Olevian‘s theology to that of the Heidelberg Catechism, of Calvin and of the wider Reformed world.
Protestant Scholatisicism
Traditionally Protestant theology, between Luther‘s early reforming career and the dawn of the Enlightenment, has been seen in terms of decline and fall into the wastelands of rationalism and scholastic speculation. Editors Trueman and Clark challenge this perception in this transatlantic collection of eighteen essays covering: Luther and Calvin; Early Reformed Orthodoxy; The British Connection; From High Orthodoxy to Enlightenment; and The Rise of Lutheran Orthodoxy. Edited in partnership with Carl Trueman.
