Weekly Ebook Deals: Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 12th

In honor of Mother’s Day, we’re featuring one of our new releases as well as a number of discounted ebooks we think moms will love.

To learn more about each book, click on the covers below to find them at Crossway.org. You will find the ebooks at their reduced prices on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshout, Christianbook.com, eChristian, Vyrso, or your participating independent bookstore’s site.

Henry. After discussing his book with John Wilson (video here), Dr. Thornbury answered some additional questions about his relationship with Carl Henry and other topics of relevance for evangelicals today.

Below are the questions we asked and the video of Dr. Thornbury’s engaging responses (2–4 minutes each).

Why was it important to write a book about Carl Henry now?

 

How did your friendship with Dr. Henry come about?

 

What is classic evangelicalism?

 

How did Henry influence evangelicalism?

 

Why do some have a negative view of Dr. Henry?

 

What can we learn from the legacy of Carl Henry?
