Andreas Köstenberger discusses The Heresy of Orthodoxy (co-authored with Michael J. Kruger) in a recent interview with George Wood.

One way we as athletes can glorify God in our play is by cultivating humility. In Don’t Waste Your Sports, C. J. Mahaney points out this astonishing truth: Humility gets God’s attention (see Isaiah 66:2).
Here’s a profile of the humble athlete:
The humble athlete honors his coach. He doesn’t rip the coach in private, he doesn’t slouch when on the bench, he expresses gratitude and accepts the role the coach chooses for him.Learn more about Don’t Waste Your Sports.

Most people love stories. Epic stories of Odysseus, cruel stories of King Henry XIII, and heroic stories of Paul Revere all capture our imagination. Fascinated with stories from the past, history professor Carl Trueman has released his book Histories and Fallacies to explore the writing of history and the common perils that befall it.
There is an old adage among historians that no event in history is so certain that, sooner or later, someone won’t come along and deny that it happened. Deniers of the Holocaust or the death of Elvis Presley are prime examples of this. False histories like these, along with less outrageous ones, inspired Trueman to examine the penning of history and the common foibles that go into it. Issues that plague the writing of history include:
Objectivity: personal and cultural influences result in different historical conclusions (e.g., Holocaust denial)Frustrated by the plethora of historical theory and lack of actual writing of history on the part of historians, Trueman strives to make readers aware of the role they themselves play in the writing of history and the common mistakes to avoid.
