A brilliant little reminder of how to respond to worship. Really appreciated this: Respond to the truth not the feeling https://t.co/6hVcQI1Rnh via @simplepastor

🔥EPIC GIVEAWAY🔥
Tuesday was the official release of my new book with @ivpacademic, Walking the Way of the Wise: A Biblical Theology of Wisdom. It's the latest addition to the ESBT series (edited by @DrGladd and @L_MMorales).
To celebrate this week's launch of Walking the Way of the Wise, IVP is giving away--again!--an ENTIRE SET of the ESBT series. The series is magnificent, and I want it to be yours!
To enter, simply repost this announcement and tag a friend.
While I have you here, follow this account and check out my Biblical Theology newsletter (see profile), where I write regularly about the Bible and theology.
The winner of the giveaway will be announced this Saturday, June 7th.
I hope you'll keep my new book on your radar for yourself and others. If you'd like to support the launch of the book, a simple post online can have a great ripple effect! And reviews on major book sites are super helpful.
Join me in thinking about what it means to walk wisely with God, who has made us for His glory and who upholds us on the narrow way that leads to life.
@NotThatRBaxter Only-a-quarter quarter November? ;) Wouldn't it be amazing to find that there's actually a whole bunch of us presuppositional apologists out there trying desperately to not be jerks while engaging with neighbours and showing them grace?!
