I begin with an apology. This book should have been reviewed in EN a couple of years ago. It first appeared in 2011 and is one of the best books I know that gives an exposition of Reformation Christian faith as it relates to the contemporary world.
God has blessed the US in recent decades with a wonderful array of faithful evangelical leaders from whom we have all benefited. Don Carson, Tim Keller and John Piper spring immediately to mind. But these guys will not last forever and a new generation of thoughtful and gifted young men is on the rise. It is from among these whom God is raising up for the future that the contributors to this book have been chosen. Kevin De Young, whose recent books, Why we’re not emergent, What is the mission of the Church?, The Hole in our Holiness, have helped so many, is the editor.
