Varsy Arsy — Proclaiming The Gospel in Second Corinthians
$14.95 326 pages, ©2009 by Phillip A. Ross
The Corinthian church had been captured by a false teaching that brought it wealth, success and influence. Oddly, the false, Gnostic spirituality being taught was based on popular, Greek wisdom and had produced worldly success. But Paul saw through the charade and called the Corinthians back to ordinary faithfulness that stood in opposition to the false wisdom of Greek culture issuing from the academy.
Arsy Varsy — Reclaiming The Gospel in First Corinthians
$15.95 400 pages, ©2008 by Phillip A. Ross
What kind of title is Arsy Varsy? It's an old Puritan word similar to vice versa. Where visa versa means conversely or a change in order, arsy varsy (pronounced ahr-see-vahr-see) means wrong end foremost or ass backward, which suggests that something is happening the wrong way, with the rear coming first. It indicates the complete reversal of the correct order. Paul was addressing a kind of arsy varsy confusion in the Corinthian church.
Engagement — Establishing Relationship in Christ
$5.95 114 pages, ©2008 by Phillip A. Ross
This is not an expositional book study, but is more of a topical study intended to speak to the needs of contemporary people by uncovering various biblical truths and at the same time revealing various contemporary misunderstandings about the Bible and salvation.
The Big Ten — Study on the Ten Commandments
$5.95 108 pages, ©2008 by Phillip A. Ross
This material is neither comprehensive, nor complete; neither systematic, nor extemporaneous. It is, however, intended to address issues of orthodoxy and error that plague modern society and the contemporary churches. It is neither scholarly nor popular in style or content. It simply exposes the Bible for what it is, and applies it to the world in which we live.
Informal Christianity — Refining Christ's Church
Informal Christianity reviews the personal and informal realities involved in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ that provide the foundation of Christianity. It deals with personal discipleship, what it means to be born again, to live in regeneration through the Holy Spirit in a way that produces a genuine spiritual life in Christ. If spiritual discipline does not begin in one's own heart, it doesn't begin at all.

It's About Time — The Time Is Now
$4.69 54 pages, ©2008 by Phillip A. Ross
This book is about thinking about God, the gospel, and Jesus Christ. We all need to make more time to do that. It is not about a mountaintop experience nor is it from a mountaintop perspective. Rather, it is from the "street," down in the valley where people actually live. It is not sad or morose, but it is serious — and it's about sin, yours and mine. It is an invitation to think more deeply about the things that we deeply care about, the things we believe. It's about Jesus.
The Wisdom of Jesus Christ in the Book of Proverbs
$24.95 $16.95 414 pages, ©2006 by Phillip A. Ross
This study on Proverbs uncovers the biblical message of the Book Proverbs verse by verse in the light of Jesus Christ, like a commentary. Every verse is seen in the light of Christology, from the perspective of Christianity. We cannot pretend to be other than Christians who live on the redemption side of the Cross, while Proverbs was written by King Solomon on the anticipation side of the Cross. Nonetheless, the Christian faith is founded on the eternal consistency of God. God does not change, nor does God's wisdom.
Marking God's Word — Understanding Jesus
$21.95 $14.95 340 pages, ©2006 by Phillip A. Ross
There is much confusion in and out of the church about Christianity — Jesus' life, Jesus' teachings, Jesus' death and Jesus' resurrection. Is confusion about the gospel of Jesus Christ new to the contemporary world? When did the confusion begin? What is the confusion about? How have people dealt with it? These are the questions that have guided this commentary on Mark.
Acts of Faith — Kingdom Advancement
$20.95 $13.95 323 pages ©2006 by Phillip A. Ross
Jesus was the most misunderstood man in history — and He still is. But does He stand alone? Has anyone ever completely understood what the Lord was up to? This study of Acts shows that Paul understood Jesus, and carried forward Jesus' perspective, not simply Paul's perspective. It was an old perspective because it was a biblical perspective, not a new perspective.
Practically Christian — Applying James Today
$13.50 $7.95 141 pages ©2006 by Phillip A. Ross
The gospel, James reminded his readers, is a practical way of life. And where the actual living of that way of life is not demonstrated in the lives of Christians, the Holy Spirit must be presumed to be absent and the faithfulness of such people called into question. The gospel is not just a head belief, nor a heart-felt experience. It is primarily a way of life.
The Work at Zion — a reckoning
$30.00/set two volumes, 732 pages ©1996 by Phillip A. Ross
The Work at Zion is a preaching journal of a spiritual conversion that turned a ministry upside down. This collection of sermons details a preacher's rediscovery of classic, historical, Protestant Christianity in the midst of of apathy and apostasy. The logical conclusion of modern Christianity is brought to a head and set in stark contrast to God's Word.
