Fundamentally this book is about the character of God. Between these pages, Calvinism is in the dock: the charge? Calvinist theology maligns God's character to such a degree that it should be utterly abandoned as a valid Christian doctrine, avoided with all possible industry, or repented of. Why is knowledge of Calvinism important? What are the consequences of Calvinist theology? If you are a Christian who understands the importance of doctrine in your relationship with God and are considering Calvinism, the answers to those questions (set forth in this book) will be critical to your future growth. If you are a student charged with an assignment to understand the basic tenets of Calvinism, the book will give you a clear understanding of its major points and help you understand how those doctrines relate to the whole counsel of Scripture. If you are a Calvinist (at the moment), it might be suggested that these arguments are even more critical, since they assert that the doctrine which shapes your understanding of God's character will eventuate in a false understanding of God's nature-which will in turn result in a slow, shriveling transmogrification of your relationship with God from one of vibrant life to one devoid of Spirit or Truth, absent the life-giving flow that comes from a right perception of the Creator of the Universe, and leave you simply a dead husk built of theory, academic argument, and self-righteousness, held together only by the glue of pride in and dependence upon one's own understanding.

Interpreting Ramakrishna: Kali's Child Revisited is a scholarly rebuttal to the controversial book Kali's Child, by Jeffrey Kripal, which asserted that Sri Ramakrishna's mystical experiences were fueled by homoerotic desires that he neither accepted nor understood. A glaring weakness of Kripal is that he could barely read and understand Bengali, the language of the source material. Furthermore, he unfortunately was too eager to prove conclusions that the literature did not support.These and other points are explained step-by-step by Swami Tyagananda and Pravrajiks Vrajaprana, the authors of the present title.Included in Interpreting Ramakrishna is a lengthy analysis of scholarship on Sri Ramakrishna over the past century.According to Harvard professor Francis X. Clooney: "Interpreting Ramakrishna is a substantial and conscientious work of scholarly and religious reflection, the best resource we have for understanding Sri Ramakrishna today." Professor Gerald James Larson (UC Santa Barbara) says that Interpreting Ramakrishna "is balanced, scrupulously fair, and generous to all sides in the debate."According to Professor Anantanand Rambachan, Interpreting Ramakrishna "is a patient and elaborate illustration of the possible This is a welcome contribution to Ramakrishna that treads the uncommon middle ground between the extremes of the uncritical insider and the unexamined assumptions of the scholar."

2010 Reprint of 1925 edition. The Everlasting Man is a two-part history of mankind, Christ, and Christianity, by G. K. Chesterton. Published in 1925, it is to some extent a deliberate rebuttal of H. G. Wells' Outline of History, which embraced the evolutionary origins of humanity and denied the divinity of Jesus. Whereas Orthodoxy detailed Chesterton's own spiritual journey, in this book he tries to illustrate the spiritual journey of humanity, or at least of Western civilization. C. S. Lewis credited The Everlasting Man with "baptising" his intellect, much as George MacDonald's writings had baptised his imagination, so as to make him more than half-converted well before he could bring himself to embrace Christianity. The book was also cited in a list of 10 books that "most shaped his vocational attitude and philosophy of life".

"Seven Myths of the Crusades' rebuttal of the persistent and multifarious misconceptions associated with topics including the First Crusade, anti-Judaism and the Crusades, the crusader states, the Children's Crusade, the Templars and past and present Islamic-Christian relations proves, once and for all, that real history is far more fascinating than conspiracy theories, pseudo-history and myth-mongering. This book is a powerful witness to the dangers of the misappropriation and misinterpretation of the past and the false parallels so often drawn between the crusades and later historical events ranging from nineteenth-century colonialism to the protest movements of the 1960s to the events of 9/11. This volume's authors have venerable track records in teaching and researching the crusading movement, and anyone curious about the crusades would do well to start here." —Jessalynn Bird, Dominican University, co-Editor of Crusade and Christendom

He has served in numerous Church callings, including two bishoprics. From Clergy to Convert is his first book.

The Skeptic's Annotated Bible: Corrected and Explained is a rebuttal to The Skeptic's Annotated Bible.
