Good News of Great Joy

Good News of Great Joy by John Piper presents twenty-five short devotional readings to help you keep Christ at the center of the Advent season.

The new December 2024 issue of Themelios has 234 pages of editorials, articles, and book reviews. It is freely available from The Gospel Coalition.

Standout articles include:

• The Goal of Theological Scholarship: Academy or the Church? by J. V. Fesko: Why do we write articles, books, and sermons? Fesko argues that there should be a twofold aim for our theological labors: to glorify God and to edify the church.

• Strange Times: Selfish Preachers? by Daniel Strange: Whom are you preaching for? Strange ponders this probing question for preachers by considering the legacy of Richard “Gussie” Garnett, who modeled generous communication and challenged pastors to preach sermons that connect with and feed their people.
  
  

Theophany: A Biblical Theology of God's Appearing by Vern S. Poythress describes the various accounts of God’s visible presence from Genesis to Revelation, revealing who God is and how he dwells with us today.
