TROUBLED WATERS: A FRESH LOOK AT BAPTISM AND WHY WE ARGUE By: Jordan Pickering Baptism is an issue that has long divided the Christian church, and in spite of 400 years of discussion, it is an argument that has not made much progress. Using biblical evidence that is not usually associated with baptism, this book examines those foundations, showing how correcting our foundations and challenging our assumptions can suggest a fresh solution to the problem of baptism. It may even provide a way forward to settle the baptism debate once and for all. CBD PRICE: R155.00 BUY NOW

Equip Book of the Month: August

Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness: Timothy Keller

“What are the marks of a supernaturally changed heart?” This is one of the questions the Apostle Paul addresses as he writes to the church in Corinth. He s not after some superficial outward tinkering, but instead a deep rooted, life altering change that takes place on the inside. In an age where pleasing people, puffing up your ego and building your résumé are seen as the methods to make it , the Apostle Paul calls us to find true rest in blessed self forgetfulness.

In this short and punchy book, best selling author Timothy Keller, shows that gospel humility means we can stop connecting every experience, every conversation with ourselves and can thus be free from self condemnation. A truly gospel humble person is not a self hating person or a self loving person, but a self forgetful person. This freedom can be yours too…
