TGC Book Awards Winners 2025
The winners of the The Gospel Coalition 2025 Book Awards are here! Here are the links to my reviews for some of the winners.
In The Clay Pot Conspiracy, Dave Harvey helps us see God’s plan to use weakness in leaders. This book is for leaders who know they are lacking. Harvey shares his own personal and family struggles, showing how grace—like manna—arrives for the moment and lasts for the day. We need new mercies each morning.
Even enemies can help us enlarge our souls and strengthen our faith. This book helped me see that my weaknesses are not disqualifications, but qualifications—and even advantages—in my leadership. I am pressed to depend on God as he exploits my weaknesses for his glory. Our weakness + God’s power = resilient ministry.
Where can you find help and hope in deconstruction? In Walking Through Deconstruction, Ian Harber shares how to be a companion in a crisis of faith.
This is an absolutely honest and incredibly important book. Walking Through Deconstruction concludes on a triumphant note: God is not scared of deconstruction, doubts, criqitues, suffering, or cynicism. Even when faith is shaken, we walk on solid ground.
Biblical Theology is a popular topic of interest today, but is it really a new and novel way of reading the Word? In Biblical Theology in the Life of the Early Church, Stephen O. Presley recovers an ancient vision that recasts biblical theology as a practice cultivated in Christian community.
This thought-provoking academic book is a deep and rewarding read that will cause you to wonder at the beauty of biblical theology and worship the God who unites it all together.
In From the Rising of the Sun, Tim Challies and Tim Keesee take you on a journey of worship around the world. This book chronicles their travels as they discover how churches worship God in their own unique ways. From Lautoka, Fiji, to Unalaska, Alaska — this book will open your eyes to the praise of our God.
The book comes with a free film series that beautifully captures the people and praise of God. From the Rising of the Sun is a fascinating testimony of God’s faithfulness to His church, the wonderful worship of Christ, and the power of the Spirit to move in God’s people.
Scrolling Ourselves to Death, edited by Brett McCracken and Ivan Mesa, is a timely and thought-provoking exploration of life in the digital age. It features contributions from the teams at Crossway and TGC, including Collin Hansen, Joe Carter, G. Shane Morris, and more.
Scrolling Ourselves to Death is an eye-opening book to the digital age we live in and the spiritual side of our screen time. This book offers both help and hope. If you heed the warnings and apply its wisdom, it can be life-changing.
In Make It Your Ambition, Jeremy Writebol presents seven godly pursuits for the next generation.
This is a book not about what you will do, but who you will be. Inspirational and practical, Make It Your Ambition is a spiritual spark that will ignite a flame for God.
