Resources & Reviews
This page is in need of updating, so until I do, I am moving it down the list…
I started a hobby of study on the 4th Century, which you can find here.
This is a list of my book reviews and other resources which you might find useful.
A note about media reviews, unless otherwise expressly noted, the books and software are provided free of charge by the various publishers. I do my best to site the source of the product, if I don’t, rest assured, I am reviewing a copy sent to review. It does not mean that I will give a positive review – I want you to trust me – nor does it mean that I will cookie cut and paste good marks for the book. I will give you a review based on my interaction with the book. I will attempt to tell you about the book, and if I must, point out deficiencies of the material. I will either give you my recommendation or simply ‘forget’ to do so.
I review for Tyndale, Thomas Nelson, Abingdon Press, University of Illinois, IVP-Academic, Westminster John Knox, Baker Publishing, Our Sunday Visitor, Bethany House, Baylor University, Mohr Siebeck, Gorgias Press, Random House, and (more to be added). I wish to thank each of these publishers for allowing me to review for them and to my readers for engaging the dialogue.
