One With Christ:
Despite our love for the Bible, emphasis on the cross, and passion for evangelism, many evangelicals ironically neglect that which is central to the gospel. In our preaching, teaching, and witnessing, we often separate salvation from the Savior.
Looking to the Scriptures and church history, Marcus Johnson reveals the true riches of our salvation by reintroducing us to the foundation of our redemption―our mysterious union with the living Christ.
- Offers an accessible overview of union with Christ―a theological topic currently attracting increased scholarly and pastoral interest
- Explores the relationship between union with Christ and other key doctrines such as justification, sanctification, adoption, and perseverance
- Includes a discussion of the significance of a believer’s union with Christ for understanding ecclesiology, specifically with regard to baptism and communion
- Draws on insights from historical figures such as Augustine, Luther, and Calvin
Incarnation of God:
It’s at the heart of the Christian faith.
It’s the central fact of human history.
It’s the defining reality of all existence.
In The Incarnation of God, theology professors John Clark and Marcus Johnson explore the doctrine of the incarnation of Christ―an unquestionably foundational yet oddly neglected topic in contemporary evangelical theology―examining its implications for the church’s knowledge and worship of God, appreciation for salvation, approach to the Christian life, and understanding of human sexuality. Grounded in Scripture and informed by church history, this book will lead readers to reexamine afresh the greatest mystery of the universe: our Lord’s assumption of human flesh.
- Explores a neglected topic in evangelical theology, drawing important connections to other Christian doctrines, such as the nature of the atonement, union with Christ, and the sacraments
- Helps readers understand the everyday significance of the Son’s incarnation
- Serves as an accessible introduction to the doctrine, integrating relevant biblical and historical insights
- Contains a chapter connecting the incarnation to issues related to marriage and sex
A Call to Christian Formation: How Theology Makes Sense of Our World:
This book shows that theology is both integrally related to formation in Jesus Christ and shapes our understanding of the world. Christian formation is incomplete and impossible without theological formation, because Christ transforms our hearts and minds, attuning them to the reality of God. As the authors explore the deep connections between theology and the life of the Christian, they emphasize Christian formation as a defining feature of the church, arguing that theology must be integrally connected to the church's traditions and practices.
